OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution of bacteria in general ICU then discuss the susceptible factors and the treatment.METHODS A retrospective analysis of clinical information was performed on 123 patients diagnosed infection who stayed in ICU from May 2002 to May 2004.RESULTS Most of bacteria resulted in infection of general ICU were Gram-negative(62.88%) and then Gram-positive(19.65%). Fungal infection accounted for 17.47%.Pseudomonas aeruginosa occupied the highest percentage among Gram-negative bacteria.Most of Gram-positive bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus and all of them were MRS.The infection site in ICU focused on lower respiratory tract(89.09%).The second was urinary tract(11.79%).CONCLUSIONS Most of the bacteria causing infection in general ICU locate in respiratory tract.They are mainly Gram-negative.All of the Gram-positive bacteria are MRS.The risk factors of hospital-acquired infection are related with patient′s age,underlying disease,intensive care time,ventilation time and invasive operation.

Objective To evaluate the difference of clinical short-term effect and adverse reaction between paclitaxel liposome and paclitaxel in non-small cell lung cancer patients with lymph node metastasis after pulmonary resection.Methods Sixty-eight patients after pulmonary resection were divided into two groups by random digits table method,37 patients in experimental group with paclitaxel liposome (135mg/m2) combined with carboplatin (CBP) at 300 mg/m2 in chemotherapy,and 31 patients in control group with paclitaxel (135 mg/m2) combined with CBP at 300 mg/m2 in chemotherapy.Results All patients were evaluable.In experimental group,5 patients had complete remission,10 patients had partial remission,17patients were stable,5 patients' condition aggravated,the total effective rate was 40.5％(15/37),clinical control rate was 86.5％ (32/37).In control group,2 patients had complete remission,8 patients had partial remission,15 patients were stable,6 patients' condition aggravated,the total effective rote was 32.3％(10/31),clinical control rate was 80.6％(25/31).The treatment effectiveness in experimental group was significantly higher than that in control group (P ＜ 0.05).The main adverse reaction included marrow suppression,hair loss,muscle and joint pain and gastrointestinal symptom,there was no serious hypersensitivity.The rate of hypotension,face flushing,paresthesia,muscle and joint pain,erythra in experimental group was lower than that in control group [0 vs.9.7％ (3/31),5.4％ (2/37) vs.19.4％ (6/31),10.8％ (4/37) vs.22.6％ (7/31),13.5％ (5/37) vs.38.7％ (12/31),5.4％ (2/37) vs.25.8％ (8/31)] (P ＜0.0 1 or ＜0.05).Conclusion The curative effect rate of paclitaxel liposome is better than paclitaxel in patients with lymph node metastasis after pulmonary resection and with lower incidence of side effects.

Aim ToobservetheeffectofSanHuang Decoction (SHD )on glucose and lipid metabolism in insulin resistance(IR)3T3-L1 adipocytes.Methods TheIRmodelof3T3-L1adipocyteswasinducedby high glucose and hyperinsulinism cultivation(also con-taining dexamethasone ).The adipocytes were treated with rosiglitazone(Ros)and different concentrations of SHD(2. 5,5,10,20,40 g·L-1 )for 24 h.The content of glucose disappeared from the culture medium was determined as glucose consumption of the cells. The transport of glucose was observed by 2-deoxidation-[3 H]-glucose uptake method.The efflux of nonesteri-fied fatty acids(NEFA)from adipocytes was observed by the concentration of NEFA in the culture medium. The mRNA expression of glucose transporter-4 (GLUT-4)was measured by real-time polymerase chain reac-tion (real-time PCR).The protein expression of GLUT-4wasdetectedbyWesternblot.Results Compared with the Con group,SHD(5,10,20,40 g·L-1 ) could significantly induce the glucose consumption and transportion(P<0. 01 ),increase the glycerol content in culture supernatant(P<0. 01 ),reduce the NEFA concentration in culture medium and accumulation of intracellular TG(P<0. 01 ).And all of these change showed a concentration-dependent effect when SFD concentrations were from 5 g·L-1 to 20 g·L-1 .At the same time,Ros could also remarkably induce the glucose consumption and transportion(P<0. 01 ),and increase the accumulation of intracellular TG (P <0. 01);but the concentration of NEFA and glycerol in culture medium did not show any difference in the Ros-treatedgroup(P>0.05).Conclusion SHDcanin-crease insulin sensitivity by increasing glucose trans-portation and consumption in the 3T3-L1 adipocytes as well as decreasing the NEFA efflux from the cells.

Objective To identify new microsatellite loci from genome sequence database for the study of poly-morphicsm of Schistosoma japonicum. Methods Schistosoma japonicum isolates were obtained from seven endemic sites in China: Tongling and Guichi counties of Anhui Province, Duchang county of Jiangxi Province, Changde and Yueyang Cities of Hunan Province, Shashi City of Hubei Province, Xichang City of Sichuan Province. In order to study the genetic variance, genomic DNAs of 96 individual adult worms were screened against 17 new Schistosoma japonicum microsatellites and the raw data were analyzed by GenMapper 4.0. Furthermore, the varieties of alleles were inverstigated using GenAlEx 6 and genetic distances within a subpopulation (GenClone) and among populations(UPGMA, MEGA 3.1) were analyzed. Results High levels of polymorphism were found between and within population samples, and significant genetic diversity was observed among the seven subpopulations.Within Jiangxi population, most genetic distances (17 loci) among samples range from 25 to 32, indicating a significant genetic diversity. There are three clusters among the seven populations: Jiangxi, Tonglin, Shashi and Changde population, with the genetics distances ranging from 0.017 8 to 0.036 3; Guichi and Yueyang population belong to another cluster, with the genetic distance of 0.024 7; However, Xichang population is an unique group. Its genetic distances to other populations are notable with a range from 0.019 2 to 0.069 3. Conclusion The 17 new polymorphic microsatellites identified may be used as suitable markers for the study on population genetics of Schistosoma japonicum and the genetic variance of the worms seems to be complicated.
