Objective To investigate the clinic characteristics,therapeutical approaches and outcome of food-borne infection caused by Group C,Type? hemolytic streptococcus.Methods We retrospectively analyzed 51 patients infected by Group C,Type? hemolytic streptococcus who were hospitalized in the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University from May to June 2003.Results All the patients had eaten the same food which was infected by Group C,Type ? hemolytic streptococcus.The clinical manifestations were 51 pharyngal hyperaemia(100%),44 fever(86%),39 tonsillitis(76.5%),31 headache(60.8%)and 23 ache from head to foot(45.1%).There was no obvious digestive symptom.Seventeen cultivated pharyngal swab samples had all positive results,and 23(52.3%)of 44 cultivated collutory samples were positive.The cultivated bacteria were all Group C,Type? hemolytic streptococcus equisimilies.All the patients were cured after antimicrobial therapy,and hadn't get any complication.Conclusion Infection caused by Group C,Type? hemolytic streptococcus should be considered if the patients have the same food and have such symptoms as fever,headache,ache from head to foot,pharyngal hyperaemia and tonsillitis.Diagnosis can be confirmed with the positive cultivated result of pharyngal swab and collutory.The patients without serious basic disease will have good prognosis after effective and timely therapy.

Objective To establish a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for determining the content and dissolution of soluble guanylate cyclase(sGC) - 003 tablets. Methods Content and dissolution of sGC- 003 tablets were determined by HPLC. Phenomenex Luna C18 column(250 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm) was used. The mobile phase was acetonitrile-water(40∶60, V/V), with a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min, and the detection wavelength was set at 214 nm. The column temperature was 40 ℃ and the injection volume was 20 μl(injection volume of dissolution was 80 μl). Dissolution of sGC-003 tablets was determined by the second method described in Chinese Pharmacopoeia(ChP) 2015. 900 ml of pH 4.5 acetic acid buffer, pH 6.8 phosphoric acid buffer and water were used as dissolution media at the rotation speeds of 50 and 75 r/min to select the dissolution condition. Results This method had high specificity. The average recovery was about 99.58%(RSD=0.75%, n=9). And the working solution was stable within 12 h. The calibration curves were had good linearity (R2=1) within the concentration range of 0.25-50 μg/ml. The method of dissolution tests for sGC-003 tablets was established that 900 ml pH 6.8 phosphoric acid buffer was used as dissolution medium and paddle rotation speed was 50 r/min. The dissolution would be 80% at 30 min. Conclusion The dissolution condition can be used to determine the dissolution of sGC-003 tablets. The HPLC method is convenient, fast, sensitive and accurate in determining the content and dissolution of sGC-003 tablets.

Objective To investigate the effect of fluvastatin (FLV) on the expression of β1 integrin in puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN)-treated podocytes and its mechanism.Methods Cultured human podocytes were divided into PAN,different concentrations of fluvastatin (1 × 10-8 to 1 × 10-5 mol/L),SOD,H2O21 groups respectively.Expressions of β1 integrin and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in podocytes were detected by Western blotting and DCFHDA (2' 7'-Dichlorofluoresecein 3' 6'-diacetate) respectively.The viability of podocyte was determined by MTT colorimetry.Results PAN and H2O2 significantly decreased the expression of β1 integrin and increased the synthesis of ROS in podocytes (P＜0.05respectively).Lower concentration fluvastatin or SOD treatment up-regulated β1 integrin and downregulated ROS of podocytes induced by PAN (P＜0.05 respectively).MTT revealed that lower podocyte viability was found in higher concentration fluvastatin,PAN and H2O2 groups.Lower concentration fluvastatin and SOD could protect podocytes against PAN.Conclusion Fluvastatin attenuates the injury of podocyte induced by PAN and increases the expression of β1 integrin,whose mechanism may be associated with the inhibition of the ROS activity.

Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of fluvastatin on the expression of fibronectin(FN) in human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs) induced by high-glucose peritoneal dialysate (HGPDS).Methods Cultured HPMCs were randomly divided into control,HGPDS,HGPDS plus GSK650394 10-5 mol/L (the competitive inhibitor of SGK1),different concentrations of fluvastatin,fluvastatin 10-6 mol/L and GSK650394 10-5 mol/L alone.The morphology change of HPMC was observed by light microscopy.The cellular viability was detected by MTT colorimetry.The mRNA and protein expressions of serum and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase 1 (SGK1) and FN were detected by RT-PCR,Western blotting or ELISA.Results After incubation with HGPDS,the cell morphology changed from typical cobblestone-like appearance to fibroblast-like appearance,and the cell viability was inhibited significantly (P＜0.05).Fluvastatin 10-6mol/L and GSK650394 could improved the cell morphology and the cell viability injured by HGPDS (P＜0.05).Compared with the normal control group,the mRNA and protein expressions of SGK1 and FN increased significantly in HPMC treated with HGPDS(P＜0.05).GSK650394 significantly decreased the high expression of SGK1 and FN (P＜0.05),also the fluvastatin had same effects as GSK650394 in dose-dependent manner (P＜0.05).Conclusions High-glucose peritoneal dialysate can increase FN expression in human peritoneal mesothelial cells,which can be attenuated by fluvastatin.The protective role of fluvastatin in HPMC may be partially achieved through the signal pathway of SGK1.

ObjectiveTo summarize the initial experience of transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery of urology.MethodsFrom February 2010 to March 2011,21 patients underwent laparoendoscopic single-site surgery using transumbilical single-site and common surgical instruments of laparoendoscopic.Nine patients underwent single-site laparoscopic ureterolithotomy,5 underwent transumbilical single-site laparoscopic ureteral stricture resection and anastomosis,5 underwent transumbilical single-site laparoscopic renalcyst unroofing and 2 had a nephrectomy.All of the cases were definitely diagnosed.A single umbilical incision of 1.5 cm to 2.5 cm was made for Triport.The procedures were performed according to the methods used in classical laparoscope methods using general instruments.ResultsAll the operations were successfully completed without conversion to open surgery.The mean operative time of ureterolithotomy was 143 (120-230) min,the mean operative time of ureteral stricture resection and anastomosis was 157 (120 -180) min,the mean operative time of unroofing of renal cysts was 110 (95 -132) min,and the operative time of the nephrectomy was from 95 to 120 min.The intestinal tract function recovered within 1 -2 d,the drainage tube was removed within 2 -3 d and the postoperative hospitalization duration was 4 -7 d.The symptoms were reduced or disappeared and no major intraoperative or postoperative complications occurred within 4 - 6 months.Conclusions Transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery represents a safe and feasible operation for urologic patients.With more clinical practice,laparoendoscopic single-site surgery could be generally applied.

To retrospectively analyze the clinical data of a child with congenital broncho-bile duct fistula(CBBF) in Guiyang Children′s Hospital in June 2019.A female, aged 7 years and 6 months old, patient presented cough with a large amount of yellow green mucus.The main clinical manifestation was recurrent pulmonary infection after birth.After the fistula was found by electronic bronchoscope, doctors cooperated with imaging department, anesthe-siology department and pediatric surgery department.After treatment, the child recovered and discharged.There are few reports on CBBF.This study suggested that, in view of the refractory pneumonia with recurrent pulmonary infection and yellow green sputum after birth, and that the effect of anti-infection treatment was poor, clinicians should pay attention to the CBBF, take bronchoscopy as soon as possible, and make early diagnosis by combining with imaging technology, thus formulating a reasonable diagnosis and treatment plan under multidisciplinary cooperation, so as to improve the diagnosis and treatment of this rare disease clinical diagnosis and treatment level, and reduce missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis as well.
