Objective To investigate the situations of close contacting with MDR-TB in family and analysis the necessity and urgency of family protection.Methods Nine typical primary MDR-TB cases in our hospital that close contacted with family pulmonary TB patients.their relatives contacted with them and their treatment prognosis were retrospectively analyzed.Results All of the 9 cases were transmitted by lineal MDR-TB relatives.In one case,3 generations were pumonary TB patients.All of 4 family members were pulmonary TBpatients in another case.3 cases were treated with operations:2 cases with pulmonary lobectomy and 1 case with intestinal resection.Treatment prognosis:3 cases cured,2 cases not cured,4 cases dead.Conclusions Family close contacting with MDR-TB patients should be intervened earlier:including health education,effective protection and health examination regularly et al.

OBJECTIVESTo explore whether the angiotensin I -converting enzyme (ACE) I/D (insertion/ deletion) polymorphism is associated with the susceptibility to high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE) in the Han Chinese.

METHODSOne hundred and forty-seven HAPE-p (HAPE patients) and 193 HAPE-r (HAPE resistants) were enrolled from the Yushu earthquake reconstruction workers in Qinghai province where the altitude is over 3 500 m above sea level. Blood samples were collected from each of the HAPE-p and HAPE-r groups. Information about physiological phenotypes was obtained via fieldwork investigation. The ACE-I/D polymorphism in HAPE-p and HAPE-r was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

RESULTSThe SaO2 was significantly lower while HR was significantly higher in HAPE-p group than those in HAPE-r group. The genotype frequencies of ACE-I/D for II, ID, DD in HAPE-r and HAPE-p groups were 0.430, 0.446, 0.124 and 0.435, 0.469, 0.095, respectively, the allelic frequencies of I and D were 0.650, 0.350 and 0.670, 0.330, respectively. The OR of ID, DD and D alleles relative to II for HAPE was 0.961 (0.610-1.514), 1.322 (0.634-2.758) and 1.080 (0.783-1.489). There was no significant difference of the genotypic and the allelic frequencies in ACE-I/D polymorphism between HAPE-p and HAPE-r groups.

CONCLUSIONSThere is no relation between ACE-I/D polymorphism and HAPE in the Han Chinese.

Objective To explore clinical value of serum total bile acid(TBA) and cholinesterase(CHE) in infantile hepatopathy.Methods Sixty infants diagnosed respectively with breast milk jaundice,cytomegalovirus hepatitis and congenital bile duct teratism were included.Twenty healthy infants were as control.The infants of cytomegalovirus hepatitis were self-compared in acute stage and convalescence stage.Serum TBA and CHE in every group were measured and compared.Results Serum TBA in control group,breast milk jaundice group,cytomegalovirus hepatitis group and congenital bile duct teratism group were(6.47?3.25),(8.71?1.79),(45.86?40.85),(119.50?31.73) ?mol/L,respectively;and CHE were(11295.50?1731.91),(10762.89?1237.30),(9771.32?860.27),(7967.304?31.58) U/L,respectively.Compared with other groups,the level of serum TBA and CHE in cytomegalovirus hepatitis group and the congenital bile duct teratism group were significantly different(all P
