OBJECTIVE To discuss the antibiotic resistance situation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and provide basis for therapy and control of the nosocomical infection. METHODS Fourteen strains of P.aeruginosa which derived from 60 and more years aged patients in intensive care unit(ICU) were analyzed by conventional chemistry test,PCR inspection,antimicrobial susceptibility test,plasmid pattern analysis and enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus(ERIC)-PCR polymorphism analysis. RESULTS Fourteen strains had the same chemistry traits,many strains appeared multi-antibiotic resistance,10 strains had a plasmid of 23kb or so without obvious association with(multi-antibiotic) resistance,14 strains were divided into three clusters by ERIC-PCR technique and their banding pattern cluster analysis,their similarity coefficients were from 0.62 to 0.86. CONCLUSIONS Nosocomial infection of P.aeruginosa which screened from aged patients in ICU has taken on sporadic state;ERIC-PCR fingerprinting technique genotyping method has high discrimination,and good reproducibility and give faster genotyping result with less hands-on time,which serves as nosocomial infection epidemiologic surveillances of P.aeruginosa.

Objective To investigate the early diagnosis and treatment of pelvic fracture with vaginal injury.Methods From January 2000 to July 2010,13 patients suffered from pelvic fracture with vaginal injury were treated in our hospital,whose average age was 31.7 years.According to the Tile classification,there were 4 cases of type B1,1 case of type B2,4 cases of type B3,3 cases of type C1,and 1 case of type C2.Emergency repair of vagina together with open reduction and internal fixation of pelvic fracture was performed in 3 patients.After the patients' condition became stable,5 patients with shock were treated with emergency repair of vagina together with primary external fixation of pelvic fracture.Prompt repair of vagina together with open reduction and internal fixation or primary external fixation of pelvic fracture was performed in 2 patients who underwent delayed diagnosis.Two cases of extensive pelvic abscess due to missed diagnosis of vaginal laceration were treated with debridement and external fixation of pelvic fracture,and reconstructions of vagina were performed after infection control.Results Twelve patients survived,and 1 patient died 6 h after admission.Eleven patients were followed up for 8 to 36 months (average,17 months).Among 9 patients who underwent one-stage repair of vagina,5 married patients had normal sexual life,1 suffered from pain during sexual intercourse,and 3 unmarried patients had normal menses.Two patients who underwent second-stage reconstruction of vagina suffered from pain during sexual intercourse.At final follow-up,the mean Majeed score was 82.2 (range,56 to 96),and the results were excellent in 6 cases,good in 3 cases,fair in 2 cases.Conclusion Vaginal injury should be highly suspected in females with anterior pelvic ring fracture.Early diagnosis and repair of vaginal injury is crucial to good clinical outcomes.Delayed diagnosis and treatment may lead to severe complications.

BACKGROUND:During spinal degeneration process, the intervertebral disc and facet joints are interrelated and interacted to impact the normal function and stability of the spine, thereby resulting in low back pain. Moreover, there is always a controversy on the degeneration order of the intervertebral disc and facet joint. OBJECTIVE:To explore the relationship between lumbar facet joint degeneration and intervertebral disc degeneration in patients with low back pain. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 186 patients with low back pain. The facet joint degeneration and intervertebral disc degeneration at L2-S1 motion segments of each patient were evaluated. Enroled patients were divided into three age groups: < 40 years old, 40-60 years old and≥ 60 years old. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The incidence of lumbar facet joint and intervertebral disc degeneration was increased with age, and degeneration of the lumbar facet joint and intervertebral disc were the most obvious at L4-5 and L5-S1 segments. The incidence of intervertebral disc degeneration was more than that of facet joint degeneration at each segment in al age groups, except groups of < 40 years old and 40-60 years old at L2-3 segments, but there was no significant difference (P > 0.05). There was a weak correlation between facet joint degeneration and intervertebral disc degeneration (χ2=100.9,P < 0.001, gamma=0.22). These findings show that the incidence of intervertebral disc degeneration and facet joint degeneration is increased with age, and there is a weak correlation between them. However, the lumbar degenerative order is stil unclear and further research is needed.

Objective To explore the liver toxicities of the VDLD scheme in children with malignant tumor.Methods In a prospective trial,the levels of serum total protein,albumin, globulin,rate of albumin/globuin alanine aminotransferase,aspartate transaminase,gamma glutamyltranspeptidase,total bile acid and alkaline phosphatase were tested in children with malignant tumour before and after VDLD scheme,and compared with each other.Results The concentration of the serum total bile acid was significantly increased after VDLD scheme than before(P

Objective To investigate the role of Huang-qi in balance of TH1/TH2 in asthma on dendritic cells level. Methods DCs from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) were induced by rhGM-CSF and rhIL-4, and then were identified. The level of IL-12 and IL-10 produced by DCs were de-tected by ELISA assay. After autoreactive T cells, mRNA of T-bet and GATA-3 was measured by RT-PCR. Simultaneously, IL-4 and IFN-γ were determined by flow cytometer. Results After 7 days culture, IL-12 was significantly decreased in asthma group compared to control group (P ＜ 0.01), whereas IL-10 on the opposite. At the 7th day of co-culture with T cells derived from floating cells, the IFN-γ/and T-bet mRNA level in asthma group were significantly decreased than that in control group, whereas IL-4, GATA-3 mRNA level, the ratio of IL-4/IFN-γ and GATA-3/T-bet were apparently increased in asthma group than that in control group(P＜0.01). After Huang-qi treatment, the IFN-γ/and T-bet mRNA level were significantly in-creased, whereas the ratio of IL-4/IFN-γ and GATA-3/T-bet, and the IL-10 level were apparently de-creased, but the level of IL-12, IL-4 and GATA-3 mRNA were not changed significantly. Conclusion DCs in asthma regulated the balance of TH1/TH2 by means of secreting decreased IL-12 and increased IL-10, that made TH2 playing a dominance role which is the key factor in initiating asthma. Huang-qi regulated DCs through decreasing the level of IL-10, and thus decreased the ability of inhibiting the differentiation of TH1 from TH0, that is also inhibiting the differentiation of TH2 from TH0 directly.

BACKGROUND:Meta-analysis results have shown that Duhuojisheng Decoction can improve the symptoms and relieve the pain of patients with knee osteoarthritis, but the mechanism and pathway are not very clear.OBJECTIVE:To further verify the curative effect of Duhuojisheng Decoction for primary knee osteoarthritis in macaca fascicularis. METHODS: Under natural conditions, 6 clean young macaca fascicularis (aged 3-5 years, normal group) and 6 elderly macaca fascicularis (aged more than 20 years, model group) were selected from 24 macaca fascicularis. The models of primary knee osteoarthritis were established in the model group,then aged animals were randomly divided into control and intervention(given the treatment of Duhuojisheng Decoction) groups. The number of whole blood leukocytes, C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, properties of the joint fluid and expression level of tumor necrosis factor-α were compared between the control and intervention groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The aged macaca fascicularis was characterized by a typical osteoarthritis similar to human. Treatment with Duhuojisheng Decoction significantly down-regulated the expression level of tumor necrosis factor-α and significantly reduced the levels of whole blood leukocytes, and C-reactive protein. Our results suggest that the aged macaca fascicularis model of primary knee osteoarthritis is an effective animal model to simulate the occurrence and development of human primary knee osteoarthritis.Duhuojisheng decoction alleviates the progression of primary knee osteoarthritis probably by inhibiting the expression level of tumor necrosis factor-α and decreasing the levels of inflammatory factors in the articular cartilage. Additionally, the levels of whole blood leukocytes and C-reactive protein are important parameters for the prediction of curative effects.

Objective To explore the role of CD 30 on CD4 + T lymphocyte and T lymphocyte subset activation in asthma pathogenesis.Methods Twenty seven asthma active attack patients,16 acute upper respiratory infection patients and 19 control children were randomly selected. Direct immunofluorescence flow cytometry was used to detect the CD 30 positive percentage on CD4 +cell; ELISA was used to detect the levels of interleukin(IL) 4 and IL 13 in culture supernatants of peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) and plasma total immunoglobulin E(IgE) level.Results Compared with control group and acute upper respiratory infection group, in asthmatic children the CD4 +CD 30 + percentage on CD4 + cell was elevated significantly; 2.The levels of IL 4 and IL 13 in supernatants of cultured lymphocyte were increased significantly, the plasma total IgE level was increased significantly;3.There was a significant positive correlation of CD4 +CD 30 + cell percentage with the levels of IL 4 and IL 13 in culture supernatants and plasma total IgE.Conclusions The cell that could produce Th2 derived cytokine may consist of CD 30 +cell;When CD 30 L combined with CD 30 on CD4 + cells ,it might result in Th2 cell proliferation ,develop and release Th2 derived cytokine; IL 4 and IL 13 could induce B cell production and secrete more IgE. It is suggested that CD 30 and imbalance of Th2 subset may play an important role in asthma pathogenesis.
