Aim To explore the inhibition of Sinica Maxim′s extract( CSME) on resistant infections of burn wounds,such as the methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus ( MRSA ) , resistant pseudomonas aeruginosa (RPA) and resistant escherichia coli(RECO). Meth-ods The resistant strains were cultured by MH agar plates. After resistance genes of quality control strains were extracted and appraised, such as mecA, mexB, merA, qacE△1-sull, tnpU/A and mexB, etc, and then,some projects of CSME were detected,such as the antibacterial spectrum, the minimum inhibitory con-centration(MIC), different concentrations of sensitive rate and inhibition curves, etc. Finally, these results were compared with the inhibitory effects of some anti-biotics to determine the sensitivity rates of CSME. Re-sults The MIC of CSME was 62. 5 ,125 ,250 g · L-1 respectively on the MESA, RPA and RECO. The inhi-bition rates of CSME appeared concentration-dependent on these three kinds of resistant bacteria,and the inhi-bition rates of the multi-concentration CSME on RECO were significantly lower than on MRSA and RPA ( P<0. 05). While in MIC,the resistance rates of MRSA on carbenicillin, cefazolin, erythromycin were significant-ly higher than those of CSME(P<0. 05); The inhibi-tion zones of CSME were significantly smaller than those of ceftriaxone, cefepime, imipenem, but greater than those of other antibiotics( P<0. 05 ); The inhibi-tion zones of CSME on RPA were significantly smaller than those of carbenicillin, and greater than those of other antibiotics ( P <0. 05 ) . The inhibition zones of CSME on RECO were significantly smaller than those of ceftriaxone,cefepime,imipenem,ciprofloxacin,nitro-furazone,and greater than those of other antibiotics ( P<0. 05 ) . Conclusions CSME has a significant inhi-bition on burn wound infection with these three kinds of resistant bacteria,such as MRSA,RPA and RECO. It is prompted that CSME could become one of the effective drugs to control burn wound infections with multi-re-sistant strains.

Objective To investigate the protective mechanism of Interleukin 33 (IL-33) in preventing myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury in rats. Methods A rat model with myocardial I/R with 32the adult male SD rats , which were randomly divided into 4 groups: SO group , I/R group , IL-33 + I/R group , SB230580 + IL-33 + I/R group. The levels of LDH, CK, TNF-α, IL-6, HMGB1, Bcl-2, total caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3 and P-P38 were detected. Results After reperfusion, IL-33 significantly decreased the levels of serum LDH and CK and the expression of TNF-α, IL-6 , cleaved caspase-3 , but significantly increased the expressions of Bcl-2, p-P38 (P < 0.05). SB230580 attenuated the protective role of IL-33 on myocardial I/R in a certain degree. Conclusions IL-33 may prevent myocardial I/R injury via inhibiting inflammation and cardiocyteapoptosis by way of P38 MAPK signaling pathway.

Objective To evaluate prognostic factors for early bronchopleural fistula after pneumonectomy with non small cell lung cancer,and establish a validated clinical model to estimate the risk of early-BPF.Methods We reviewed the medical records of 429 patients who underwent pneumonectomy for NSCLC at our institution.We used univariate and multivariate analysis to identify potential independent risk factors for early-BPF after pneumonectomy for NSCLC.A model to estimate risk of early-BPF was developed by combining independent risk factors.Results The rate of early-BPF after pneumonectomy for NSCLC was 6.5％ (28/429).Three factors were independently associated with early-BPF:neoadjuvant therapy (HR:2.406),bleeding (HR:2.171)and diabetes (HR:1.144).A scoring system for early-BPF was developed by assigning 2 points for each major risk factor (neoadjuvant therapy and bleeding) and 1 point for each minor risk factor(diabetes).Scores were grouped as low (0-1),intermediate (2-3),and high (3),yielding the rate of early-BPF was 14％,27％,and 43％,respectively.Conclusion This clinical model is established on the basis of independent risk factors.This model can be used as a predictive tool for early-BPF after pneumonectomy for NSCLC.

Purpose To observe therapeutic effect of electroacupuncture Neixiyan (Ex-LE 4 ) and Dubi (ST 35) in treating osteoarthritis of knee joint. Method All the 120 cases were randomly divided into electroacupuncture and control groups, 60 cases in each group,and they were given electroacupuncture and Ritalin slowreleased tablet respectively, and pain, mobility and swelling degree of knee joint were observed before and after treatments. Results In treatment group, the average score increased by 18, while in control group, it increased by 12.33 ( P < 0. 05 ) after treatment. Conclusion Therapeutic effect of electroacupuncture Neixiyan (Ex-LE 4) and Dubi (ST 35) in treating osteoarthritis of knee joint was better than that of administration of Ritalin slow-released tablet.

Objective To observe pathological features of peripheral vessel injury caused by ex-plosion shock wave so as to provide theoretical basis for emergency treatment, prevention and complication reduction of war extremity injuries. Methods A total of 18 rabbits were randomly divided into three groups (six rabbits in each group) and placed respectively at 1, 2 and 3 m away from the explosion cen-ter. The animal model with blast injury was made by using fluid dynamite that electrically exploded at 60 cm above the ground. The physical parameters of blast wave were recorded using pressure transducers (PCB, UAS). After explosion, the femoral arteries were examined grossly, histologically and immunohis-tochemically. Results The results showed that vascular endothelial cells were denudated, the spaces of contractile fiber cells increased and appeared puff, the vassular elastic fibers ruptured, flexed and de-formed visibly. Some parts of the vessel wall ruptured completely or partly, leading to bleeding. TUNEL staining and fluorescence microscope found large number of apoptotic cells in endothelium layer, smooth muscle layer and membrana adventitia layer of the blood vessels. Conclusion Explosion shock wave can result in severe large blood vessel injury, which should be paid much attention during treatment of ex-plosion shock injury.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of uniportal Video-assisted thoracoscopicsurgery(VATS) anatomic segmentectomy for lung diseases.Methods We performed a retrospective review of 52 patients undergoing uniportal VATS anatomic segmentectomy from Mar 2015 to Dec 2015.There were 16 males and 36 females with a mean age of 52.7 years (32-82 years).The incision,about 4 to 5 cm long,is performed at the fourth or the fifth intercostal space.The camera and the instruments are all through the single incision.Results Fifty-one patients underwent uniportal VATS segmentectomy successfully.1 patient with extensive pleural adhesion was needed for auxiliary incision.The median operative time was 125 min (60-240 min),the median blood loss in operation was 60 ml (10-300 ml),the median hospital stay after operation was 4.6 days(2-14 days).There was no perioperative mortality.Major morbidity occurred in 7 patients(13.5％).Pathological examination showed that there were 10 cases of benign diseases and 42 cases of non-small cell lung cancer(26 cases of carcinoma in situ and micro invasive adenocarcinoma,16 cases of infiltrating adenocarcinoma,mucinous adenocarcinoma and carcinoid).Conclusion Uniportal VATS segmentectomy has the advantage of less intercostal nerve injury and good operative perspective.It is a safe and feasible procedure after surgery practice.

Objective To explore whether dithiothreitol(DTT)is helpful for PreScission Protease to cut off the GST from GST?CT3 protein. Meth?ods The pGEX?6P?3/CT3 recombinant plasmid was transfected into Escherichia coli BL21,and the GST?CT3 fusion protein was purified by B?PER method. PreScission Protease was applied with 10 mmol/L DTT to cut off the GST,then the SDS?PAGE was performed for identification of the CT3 protein. Results Without DTT,it was very difficult for PreScission Protease to cut off the GST from GST?CT3 protein. However,in the pres?ence of 10 mmol/L DTT,PreScission Protease could cut off the GST easily as identified by SDS?PAGE. Conclusion 10 mmol/L DTT can help Pre?Scission Protease to cut GST from GST?CT3 protein,so as to achieve high concentration of CT3.

OBJECTIVE To explore the drug-resistant situation of clinical isolated Escherichia coli in our hospital from Jun to Dec in 2007,the aim is to offer evidence for drug-resistant monitoring and clinical antibiotics usage in our hospital. METHODS All clinical specimens isolated and cultured from patients were identified by using the automatic microorganism analyzer VITEK-2 as well as bacteria's drug susceptibility tests were performed using counterparts panel. RESULTS A total of 352 strains E. coli were isolated. The isolated ratio of extended spectram-?-lactamases (ESBLs) producing E. coli was 66.2% (233/352),no ESBLs producing E. coli was 33.8% (119/352). From them 111 strains E. coli were isolated in sputum and 89 strains were ESBLs producing and 22 strains were no ESBLs producing; 111 strains E. coli were isolated in urine and 62 strains were ESBLs producing and 49 strains were no ESBLs producing. The drug-resistance difference was obvious between them as well as between strains isolated from different sites. Better to select piperacillin/tazobactam,cefotetan,ertapenem,imipenem,amikacin,and nitrofurantoin to cure all isolated E. coli infection.CONCLUSIONS The drug-resistance of ESBLs producing E. coli is severe (66.2%) so that hospital administers should strengthen antibiotics usage management and improve antibiotics rational usage,inorder to decrease occurrance of bacterial resistance.
