Chinese Journal of Nosocomiology 2009;0(16):-
OBJECTIVE To discuss the effect of preventive medication for preventing incision infection before cesarean.METHODS Patients with cesarean section accepted parturients were divided in 2 groups randomly: group A(medicine before operation) and group B(no medicine before operation),and infection rate were observed after operation.RESULTS The incision infection rate of group A was 3.8%,and that of group B was 9.3%(?2=6.00,P

OBJECTIVETo assess the changes of somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) during spinal cord ischemia and reperfusion injury and the value of SEP monitoring in evaluating neurological functions in this setting.
METHODSSpinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury was induced in 28 rabbits by clamping the infrarenal aorta for 45 min, and the SEPs were monitored before and at 5, 10, and 15 min after ischemia, and at 15, 30, and 60 min and 2, 24 and 48 h after reperfusion. The neurological function score (NFS) of the rabbits was evaluated at 6, 12, 24 and 48 h after reperfusion, and the pathological changes of the spinal cord were observed 48 h after reperfusion.
RESULTSSEPs P1-wave latency significantly increased 5 min after ischemia (P<0.01) and the wave amplitude decreased 8 min after ischemia (P<0.01). SEPs disappeared 10 min after ischemia and recovered 15 min after reperfusion, but the P1-wave latency still remained longer and P1-wave amplitude lower than the measurements before ischemia (P<0.01). P1-wave amplitude became normal 15 min after the reperfusion (P>0.05), and the P1-wave latency gradually recovered 30 min after reperfusion, but still significantly longer than the preischemic value (P<0.01). P1-wave amplitude decreased again at 24 and 48 h after reperfusion (P<0.01). The NFS gradually increased at 24 and 48 h after the reperfusion (P<0.01). The changes in P1-wave amplitude at 24 and 48 h after reperfusion showed an obvious correlation to NFS (r=-0.881 and -0.925, respectively, P<0.01). Hemorrhage, swelling, and degeneration and neutrophil infiltration occurred in the spinal cord tissue 48 h after the reperfusion.
CONCLUSIONThe changes of SEP P1-wave amplitude can better reflect the spinal cord function than the wave latency during spinal cord ischemia-reperfusion injury, and SEP monitoring provides reliable evidence for prognostic evaluation of the neurological function.

Objective:To analyze immune reconstitution and influencing factors in HIV infected men who have sex with men (MSM) with access to antiviral therapy (ART) in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region (Guangxi) during 2005-2021.Methods:The data were collected from Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The study subjects were HIV infected MSM with access to the initial ART for ≥24 weeks in Guangxi from 2005 to 2021 and HIV RNA lower than the detection limit within 24 months. The proportion of infected MSM who had immune reconstitution after ART was calculated. Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of immune reconstitution. Software SPSS 24.0 was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 3 200 HIV infected MSM were enrolled, in whom 15.56 % (498/3 200) had no immune reconstitution, 14.78% (473/3 200) had moderate immune reconstitution, and the rate of complete immune reconstitution was 69.66% (2 229/3 200). The M ( Q1, Q3) of ART time for immune reconstitution was 12 (5, 27) months. Multivariate Cox proportional risk regression model analysis results showed that compared with those with initial ART at age ≥30 years, WHO clinical stage Ⅲ/Ⅳ illness, baseline BMI <18.50 kg/m 2 and baseline CD4 +T lymphocyte (CD4) counts <200 cells/μl, HIV infected MSM with initial ART at age <30 years, WHO clinical stageⅠ/Ⅱ illness, baseline BMI≥24.00 kg/m 2 and baseline CD4 counts ≥200 cells/μl were more likely to have complete immune reconstitution. Conclusions:In the HIV infected MSM in Guangxi, failures to achieve moderate and complete immune reconstitution were observed. Surveillance and ART regimen should be improved for key populations, such as those with older age and low baseline CD4 counts.

Objective:
To provide a reference for a suitable alternative treatment choice for implant-supported prostheses, and to explore the influence of 3 types of prosthetic material on the stress distribution around implant.
Methods:
The implant-abutment analogs were embedded individually into photoelastic resin blocks, which were medical pure titanium castings reproducing the surface and outline of implant (diameter 4.3 mm, length 11.5 mm) and esthetic abutment (regular profile, 1 mm). The prostheses were divided into 3 groups according to the type of prosthetic material. Each group consisted of 5 samples. The samples of composite resin ceramic and zirconia group were milled by chair-side computer aided design and computer aided manufacture (CAD/CAM) system. The samples of porcelain-fused-to-metal crown group were made manually and a pre-arranged silicone rubber impression of CAD/CAM crown would guide to shape the veneer porcelain. Each set was submitted to a 300 N compressive load axially or obliquely (75°). The stress value in the peri-implant bone at the level of the neck, neck1/3, middle1/3 and root1/3 of the sections (0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5 mm) from implant was analyzed by digital photoelasticity, and the stress cushioning effect of 3 types of prosthetic material was comprehensively evaluated.
Results:
The time spent reaching the stress peak of composite resin ceramic group [(1.58±0.08) s, axially; (2.75±0.21) s, obliquely] was larger than that of the zirconia group [(1.40±0.12) s, axially; (2.30±0.25) s, obliquely] (
