Objective To analyze the risk factors for healthcare-associated pneumonia (HAP) in patients with orthopedic injury,provide the basis for making prevention and control measures.Methods HAP occurred in patients with orthopedic injury and admitted to the department of orthopedics of a hospital from June 2011 to May 2015 were investigated retrospectively,risk factors were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression methods.Results A total of 2 578 patients with orthopedic injury were investigated,92 patients developed HAI,incidence of HAP was 3.57％.107 strains of pathogens were detected,the major were Klebsiella pneumoniae (n =22,20.56％),Escherichia coli (n =14,13.08％),and Acinetobacter baumannii (n =13,12.15％).Risk factors for HAP in patients with orthopedic injury were length of hospital stay≥15 days,smoking history≥3 years,bedridden ≥7 days,associated with underlying diseases,complications,indwelling catheter≥7 days,surgical operation,mechanical ventilation,admitted to intensive care unit,open injury,blood sugar≥11 mmol/L,plasma albumin＜30 g/ L,hemoglobin concentration＜90 g/L,and use of glucocorticoid≥4 days (all P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that smoking,bedridden,surgery,mechanical ventilation,glucocorticoid use,and anaemia were independent risk factors for HAP in patients with orthopedic injury.Conclusion The occurrence of HAP in patients with orthopedic injury is related with multiple factors,the major are surgical operation,mechanical ventilation,glucocorticoid use,long term smoking,bedridden,and anaemia.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors for fungal infection in hospitalized patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome(AIDS),and provide basis for taking preventive and control measures.Methods Clini-cal data of 112 inpatients with AIDS in a tertiary first-class hospital from January 2010 to October 2015 were ana-lyzed retrospectively,related risk factors were analyzed in patients with fungal infection,univariate analysis was performed byχ2 or t test,and multivariate analysis was performed by logistic regression analysis.Results Among 112 AIDS inpatients,41 (36.61%)had fungal infection.Candida albicans was the main pathogen (n=52, 76.74%)and was mainly isolated from lower respiratory tract (n=29,42.65%).Univariate analysis showed that invasive procedures,duration of antimicrobial use,combined antimicrobial use,and decreased CD4+ T lymphocyte count in peripheral blood were risk factors for fungal infection in AIDS inpatients(all P<0.05),while oral cleaning care and systemic antiviral therapy were protective factors for fungal infection(all P<0.05);multivariate analysis showed that decreased CD4+ T lymphocyte count in peripheral blood(OR,1.017[95% CI,1.009-1.025])and combined antimicrobial use(OR,3.975[95%CI,1.093-14.448])were independent risk factors for fungal infection in AIDS inpatients,while systemic antiviral therapy was independent protective factor for fungal infection (OR, 0.288[95%CI,0.099-0.841]).Conclusion There are many factors influencing fungal infection in AIDS patients, rational use of antimicrobial agents,systemic antiviral therapy,and increasing serum albumin concentration are main methods to prevent fungal infection,avoid unnecessary invasive procedures and application of preventive antifungal therapy for high-risk patients are also effective to prevent fungal infection.

Objective To explore the risk factors of mortality in neonates with severe bacterial pneumonia. Method The clinical data of 249 neonates with severe bacterial pneumonia from January 2011 to November 2015 were analyzed retrospectively, and the related factors of mortality were analyzed. Results Of the 249 children, 45 died and mortality rate was 18.07%. A total of 251 strains of pathogenic bacteria were detected in the bacterial culture, and the top 5 pathogens were Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus epidermidis. Univariate analysis showed that the gestational age, premature rupture of membranes, age at the time of hospital admission, birth weight, feeding, Apgar score, total bilirubin, complications, traumatic treatment, parenteral nutrition, and multidrug-resistant bacteria infection between the death group and survival group were significantly different (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the age at admission <7 days (OR=4.30, 95%CI: 1.74～10.64), Apgar scores <7 (OR=3.24, 95%CI: 1.23～8.49), and having complications (OR=6.81, 95%CI: 2.65～17.46), multidrug-resistant bacteria infection (OR=6.16, 95%CI: 1.90～19.99) and traumatic therapy (OR=3.82, 95%CI: 1.03～14.16) were the independent risk factors of mortality in neonatal severe bacterial pneumonia (all P <0.05). Conclusion The mortality rate of neonatal severe bacterial pneumonia is relatively high. And the main risk factors of death were the age at admission <7 days, Apgar scores <7, and having complications, multidrug- resistant bacteria infection and traumatic therapy.

Objective To analyze risk factors of multiple drug-resistant infections in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Methods The clinical data from 284 hospitalized pediatric patients were retrospectively analyzed from June 2011 to July 2015 . The differences between 59 cases with multiple drug-resistant infections and 225 cases with non-multiple drug-resistant infections were compared and analyzed by logistic regression. Results All of 284 cases were single birth. Fifty-nine cases ( 13 . 13 ± 9 . 03 days old) had multiple drug-resistant infections, in which 42 were males and 17 were females. Two hundred and twenty-ifve cases ( 14 . 21 ± 8 . 34 days old) had non-multiple drug-resistant infections, in which 175 cases of males and 50 cases of females. Single factor analysis showed that 8 factors, including gestational age, birth weight, days in hospital, Apgar score at birth, mechanical ventilation, parenteral nutrition, and the categories and duration of use of antimicrobial agents, were the risk factors of multiple drug-resistant infections (P?

Objective To analyze the risk factors of multiple drug resistant bacterial infections in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and provide guidance for disease control and prevention. Methods Clinical data of 814 COPD patients were retrospectively analyzed from June 2011 to May 2015, including patient's age, gender, smoking history, age of onset, severity, aggravated frequency, duration of exacerbations, diabetes mellitus, complications, use frequency and use duration of glucocorticoid, use frequency of antimicrobial agents and use duration of each time, types of antimicrobial drugs used, combined with antibacterial drugs, plasma albumin concentration, blood glucose, bacteria culture detection of multi drug resistant bacteria infection. The risk factors of multi drug resistant bacteria infection were analyzed. Results A total of 857 pathogenic bacteria were isolated from 814 COPD patients with pulmonary infection. Multiple drug resistant bacteria infection were detected in 170 cases, and 175 strains (20.42%) were detected. The detection rate of multi drug resistant/PAN resistant pseudomonas aeruginosa (MDR/PDR-PA) was 55.38% (36/65). There were significant differences in patients with multi drug resistant bacteria infection between different clinical pathological characteristics. Logistic regression analysis showed that the acute exacerbation duration (days), long time use of antimicrobial drugs, and high frequency of corticosteroids and antibiotics use were independent risk factor of multi drug resistant bacteria infection in COPD patients. Conclusion Prevention and treatment of multiple drug resistant bacteria infection in COPD patients should pay attention to the combination of community and hospital, and take effective measures to prevent and control the risk factors.

Objective To analyze the distribution and antimicrobial resistance of pathogenic strains in wound infec-tion,and provide scientific evidence for rational use of antimicrobial agents in treatment of wound infection as well as reducing the emergence of drug-resistant organisms.Methods Data about pathogenic strains isolated from wound specimens of patients with wound infection in a hospital between June 2011 and April 2014 were analyzed retrospectively.Results A total of 965 pathogenic strains were isolated from wound specimens,the main infection sites were limbs(50.47%);infected patients mainly distributed in department of orthopaedic surgery(44.97%);trauma and incisional wound infection were the major infection types(47.98%,36.48%,respectively).Among iso-lated pathogens,gram-positive bacteria,gram-negative bacteria,and fungi accounted for 37.20%,59.59%,and 3.21 % respectively.The main gram-positive bacteria were highly susceptible to vancomycin,teicoplanin,and linezolid,the main gram-negative bacteria were highly resistant to most commonly used antimicrobial agents except cefoperazone/sulbactam,piperacillin/ tazobactam,imipenem,and meropenem.Conclusion Patients with wound infection are mainly distributed in department of orthopedics,the main infection types are trauma and surgical site infection,antimicrobial resistant rates of the major gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria are both high.Sur-geons,especially orthopedics surgeons,should pay attention to the culture of pathogens and monitoring of antimi-crobial susceptibility,use antimicrobial agents rationally,and strengthen the prevention and control of surgical site infection,so as to reduce the infection incidence and occurrence of drug-resistant organisms.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the relationship between polymorphisms of genes (CYP17, CYP19 and SULT1A1) involved in estrogen metabolism and susceptibility to breast cancer in Chinese women.

METHODSA case-control study was performed. PCR-base restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and short tandem repeat polymorphism (STRP) assays were used to detect the polymorphism distribution of CYP17, CYP19 and SULT1A1 in 213 breast cancer cases and 430 matched controls. Logistic regression analyses were used to determine the OR, multivariate adjusted OR and 95% CI of each and all three genes and estrogen exposure factors on the risk of breast cancer. Relationship between polymorphisms and clinic-pathological features was also assessed.

RESULTSThe frequency of A2 allele of CYP17 was 49.8% in cases and 49.1% in controls (P > 0.05). The frequency His allele of SULT1A1 in cases (13.6%) was significant higher than that of controls (9.5%) (P = 0.03). There was also significant difference in the frequencies of (TTTA)10 allele CYP19 which was 12.4% in cases and 8.2% in controls (P = 0.02). Multigenic model indicated that there was an increased risk of breast cancer with more numbers of high-risk genotypes in a dose-response effect (trend P = 0.05). Data from multivariate analysis showed that the allele of SULT1A1 His and CYP19 (TTTA)10 was positively associated with the risk of breast cancer. Other well-established risk factors as higher estrogen exposure including total years of menstrual, early menarche etc, and women with a higher BMI and WHR were all served as independent risks.

CONCLUSIONThis study indicated that the polymorphisms of estrogen-metabolizing genes were related to breast cancer.
