Objective To investigate the molecular epidemiology and infectious risk factors of linezolid-resistant Enterococci (LRE) isolates in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University.Methods Thirteen LRE isolates were collected from 2011 to 2013 and confirmed by broth dilution susceptibility testing.The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of twelve antimicrobial agents were analyzed using Vitek 2 compact.The molecular epidemiology of LRE isolates was determined by multilocus sequence typing (MLST), pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and the Diversilab.A casecontrol study was conducted for the analysis of risk factors, and Logistic regression was performed to evaluate the independent risk factors.Results All thirteen LRE isolates showed low-level resistance to linezolid, and most of these isolates were resistant to tetracycline, erythromycin and ciprofloxacin.However, they had high sensitivity to penicillin, ampicillin and tigecycline.Sequence type 480 was predominant in the hospital, and three isolates (isolates 3, 4, and 5) from July to September 2013 were found to have the same ST, PFGE pattern and rep-PCR group, indicating the same resistance clone.Admission to intensive care unit (ICU), peripheral vascular disease, males, hypoalbuminaemia, enema and linezolid therapy were identified as significant risk factors for LRE infections.Among these factors, admission to ICU, enema and linezolid therapy were independent risk factors for the acquisition of LRE.Conclusions Thirteen LRE isolates collected in the hospital showed a multidrug-resistant phenotype, and a small-scale prevalence was detected from 2011 to 2013.Therefore, attention should be paid to monitor the LRE in the hospital to decrease the prevalence of LRE infections.

Objective: To evaluate and compare the safety and efficiency of the combined therapy of 89Sr plus zoledronic acid and those of 89Sr-chloride alone, in patients with painful bone metastases. Methods: A total of 87 patients with osseous metastasis were ran-domly divided into treatment groups of 89Sr-chloride alone (group A, 53 patients) and 89Sr plus zoledronic acid (group B, 34 patients). A total of 17 patients in group B received zoledronic acid 2-14 days after 89Sr therapy, and 13 other patients in the group received 89Sr 4-7 days after zoledronic-acid therapy. Pain response and KPS score were evaluated after the different treatments. Results: No obvious bone marrow suppression and liver damage were found in all cases. All patients who received both 89Sr-chloride and 89Sr plus zoledronic acid showed reduced bone pain and total discomfort, as well as improved KPS score, but the response was more pronounced in group B (P=0.047; P=0.036). No statistical differences in pain score and KPS scores were observed between the groups treated with zoledronic acid first and 89Sr therapy first (P=1.000; P=0.667). Comparison of bone pain relief and changes in the KPS score of different primary tumors after treatment with 89Sr-chloride or 89Sr plus zoledronic acid showed no statistical significance. Conclusion: Compared with 89Sr-chloride, treatment with 89Sr plus zoledronic acid was more effective in patients with painful bone metastases. The safety of these two treatments are similar.

Objective To evaluate the real-time genotyping and quantitative PCR(RT-GQ-PCR)method by comparing it with direct sequence analysis and the multiplex-PCR method.Methods RT-GQ-PCR,direct sequence analysis and the multiplex-PCR method were used to detect HBV genotypes of 113 patient samples with HBV-DNA positive.ResultsThe detection rate of RT-GQ-PCR and direct sequence analysis was 100%,and the multiplex-PCR is 94.69%.The concordance between RT-GQ-PCR and the multiplex-PCR is perfect(Kappa value =0.915),and the consistency of RT-GQ-PCR and direct sequence analysis is pretty good(Kappa value = 0.742),specially at detecting single genotype.Twenty-eight samples with genotypes B and C dual infections were detected by RT-GQ-PCR,but only 19 samples by the multiplexPCR and 13 samples by direct sequence analysis.Conclusion The RT-GQ-PCR is convenient,rapid and accurate in HBV genotyping,especially more sensitive than direct sequence analysis and the multiplex-PCR for detecting dual genotypes.The method is applicable for large-scale epidemiological study.

Objective To analyze the prognostic factors of patients with leukemia treated with single fraction total body irradiation (SFTBI) followed by hernatopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).Methods From January 2001 to September 2008, 102 patients received HSCT. The differences of the survival rate, relapse rate and incidence of interstitial pneumonia (IP) between groups regarding different genders, ages, pathological types, transplantation methods and TBI parameters were compared and the factors related with the survival rate, relapse rate and incidence of IP were analyzed. Results The followup time ranged from 15 to 1482 days (median, 406 days). The follow-up rate was 95.1%. 86 and 55patients were followed up more than one year and three years. The 1-and 3-year survival rates were 59.0%and 44.0%. In univariate analysis, the 3-year survival rate was signifcantly different between the groups with and without relapse before transplantation (20% vs. 55%, χ2 = 6.33, P = 0. 012), allogeneictranplantation versus autologous tranplantation (39% vs. 68%, χ2 = 8.06, P = 0.005), grade 3 or more acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) and grade 0 -2 aGVHD (0% vs. 54%, χ2 = 7.52, P = 0.006),with and without relapse after transplantation (19% vs. 58%, χ2 = 10.13, P =0.001), with and without IP (23% vs. 58%, χ2 =8.35, P=0.004). Multivariate analysis showed that grade 3 or more aGVHD was the only statistically significant prognostic factors (χ2 = 12. 74 ,P =0. 000). The l-and 3-year relapse rateswere 30. 0% and 50. 0%. The incidence of relapse was obviously higher in the group with relapse before transplantation than that without (47% vs. 16%, χ2 =7. 32, P=0. 007). Multivariate analysis showed thatrelapse before transplantation was a significant factor predicting relapse after transplantation (χ2 = 9. 39,P =0. 020). The cumulative incidence of IP was 35.0%. The incidence of IP was different between groups with dose homogeneity > 3% and ≤ 3% (27% vs. 4%, χ2 = 5. 21, P = 0. 023), with and without acute parotitis (34% vs. 3%, χ2 = 14. 15, P= 0.000), allogeneic transplantation group and autologous transplantation group (31% vs. 8%, χ2= 7.70, P= 0.006). Multivariate analysis showed that transplantation methods, acute parotitis and dose homogeneity were statistically significant factors in predictingIP (χ2 = 10. 08 , 10. 08 and 7.69 , P = 0. 002 , 0. 002 and 0. 010 , respectively) . Conclusions Patients who develop grade 3 or higher aGVHD have poor prognosis. Dose homogeneity influences the incidence of IP. Patients undergoing allogeneic transplantation are apt to have IP. Acute parotitis is related with IP and might be a predictor.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of qepA, quinolone efflux protein, among 41 unique clinical strains of K. pneumoniae producing ESBLs and to study the qepA-bearing isolates using the Diversilab system. Methods Identification and antimicrobial susceptibility were performed by Vitek-2 Compact System. Screening of qepA was carried out by PCR amplification. The NCBI BLAST program was utilized for sequence comparisons. qnr-bearing strains was evaluated by the Repetitive-sequence-based PCR(Rep-PCR) employing the Diversilab system. And the existence of rmtB was detected among these qepA contained isolates. Results qepA were detected in 5 isolates( 12.2% ). The Rep-PCR profiles produced by the Diversilab system showed that 2/5 of isolates were indistinguishable. And 60% of qepA-positive isolates were detected to harbor rmtB gene. Conclusion The data suggest the emergence of qepA-borne K. pneumoniae.
