Objective To investigate the homology of methicillin-resistant Stphylococcusaureus(MRSA)from the neonatal intensive care unit(NICU)of a children's hospital,and evaluate routes and preventive strategies of MRSA healthcare-associated infection(HAI). Methods MRSA strains from neonates and environment of NICU between October and December 2014 were collected,and strains were identified by VITEK-2 microbial analysis system and cefoxitin Kirby-Bauer method,homology of MRSA was analyzed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE ). Results A total of 6 MRSA strains were isolated from NICU between October and December 2014,3 of which (bed-58,70,and 100)were detected MRSA from specimens,MRSA were isolated from neonatal incubator and nurse (nasal swabs and hands)who cared for neonate at bed 58. 5 of 6 MRSA strains were homology,antimicrobial susceptibility testing result showed that No. 1-5 strains were resistant to clindamycin and amoxicillin/clavulanic acid,No. 6 strain was slightly different from No. 1-5 strains,No. 6 strain was susceptible to both clindamycin and amoxicillin/clavulanic acid. PFGE results showed that No. 1-5 strains were of the same type,No. 6 strain was a different type. Conclusion The main route of this MRSA transmission is contact transmission,especially through the hands of health care workers,identification and analysis of epidemic strains by PFGE technique is an effective measures to prevent HAI outbreak and perform epidemiological study.

Objective To analyze the clinicopathological characteris tics of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with secondary antiphospholid syndrome (APS) . Methods Data of 11 cases of SLE with secondary APS (SLE with APS) admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2000 to March 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. Kidney biopsy was performed on all of these patients. Differences of clinicopathology and outcomes between SLE with and without APS were compared. Results Renal involvement was found in all the SLE with APS patients. The prominent clinical manifestations included hypertension (54.5%), nephrotic level of proteinuria (24 h proteinuria ≥3.5 g)(72.7%) and renal insufficiency (45.5%). Diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure and glomerular filtration rate in SLE with APS were significantly higher than those in SLE without APS (all P<0.05). In 8 out of 11 cases (72.7%), APS nephropathy (APSN) in kidney biopsy was found, characterized by small vessel vaso-occlusive lesions. These included thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), fibrous intimal hyperplasia (FIH), focal cortical atrophy (FCA) and tubular thyroidization. Among those, 5 cases (45.5%) had chronic APSN and 4 (36.4%) had acute APSN (one case had acute and chronic APSN at the same time). The incidences of APSN and acute APSN in the SLE with APS group were significantly higher than those in SLE without APS group (P<0.05). Conclusions The major renal manifestations of SLE with APS are hypertension, nephrotic level of proteinuria and renal insufficiency. Other than lupus nephritis, also a high incidence of APSN is found in SLE with APS patients.

Objective To compare the difference of early trauma experience between early-onset and late-onset obsessive-compulsive disorder(OCD),and the kinds of early trauma in the cause of OCD. Methods Three hundred and twenty-six patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder and 480 healthy con-trols were enrolled. Early Trauma Inventory-Short Form ( ETI-SF) was applied to assess the early trauma ex-perience,compare the difference of early trauma experience between early-onset ( n=138) and late-onset ( n=188) OCD,and the kinds of early trauma in the cause of OCD. Results There were significant differences in the early trauma experience between obsessive-compulsive disorder group and control group((3.90±3.61) vs (1.88±2.61), P<0.01).Scores of physical((1.12±1.38) vs (0.71±1.23), P=0.001),emotional((1.58± 1.71) vs (0.42±1.01), P<0.01),and sexual abuse((0.27±0.59) vs (0.09±0.36), P=0.001),and a gener-al traumatic experience((0.94±1.17) vs (0.66±1.09), P<0.01) were significant difference between patients and controls. Except sexual abuse((0.30±0.66) vs (0.24±0.67), P=0.42),there were significant differ-ences in the early trauma between early-onset and late-onset OCD((5.12±3.58) vs (3.01±3.38), P<0.01), especially emotional abuse((2.18±1.76) vs (1.12±1.53), P<0.01).247(75.8%) OCD patients and 79(57. 9%) healthy controls experienced early trauma(χ2=21.48, P<0.01). Experiencing one kind of early trau-ma,the prevalence of OCD was 39.1%,two kind was 61.0%,three kind of early trauma was 65.8%,and ex-periencing four or more kind of early trauma,the prevalence of OCD was up to 84.4%. Conclusion OCD patients have much more early trauma,especially early-onset OCD. Experiencing more kind of early trauma, and the prevalence of OCD higher may associated with the development of obsessive-compulsive disorder. It is important to consider the role of childhood trauma in the prevention and treatment of OCD.
