Objective To investigate the effect of standardized usage of antibiotics and hand hygiene on carbapenem-re-sistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infection in neonates. Methods According to the situation of standardized management of an-tibiotics in our hospital, the study period, from January 2011 to December 2013, was divided into pre-intervention, transition and post-intervention. Retrospective study was employed to analyze the antibiotics use density (AUD), the hand hygiene compliance rate among the medical staff, the positive rate of CRE and the nosocomial infection percentage of the neonatology department. Results From pre-intervention to post-intervention period, the AUD was decreased from 12.93 DDDs to 8.10 DDDs;hand hy-giene compliance rate of medical staff was increased from 53.49%to 83.33%;the detection rate of CRE was decreased from 3.71%to 2.27%. The differences were all signiifcant among different periods (P<0.01). The nosocomial infection percentage decreased from 0.22%to 0.17%and there was no signiifcant difference (P=0.441). Conclusions Standardized usage of antibiotics and hand hygiene can be served as economical yet effective approaches to controlling CRE infection in neonates.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of infectious diseases of CNS.Methods Inpatients treated in the second hospital of Hebei Medical University from 1996 to 2005 were subjected to retrospective study.Results During 10 years,the hospitalization number of infectious diseases of CNS was 3929.The proportion of inpatients with viral meningitis(encephalitis),cerebral cysticercosis,tuberculous meningitis(TBM),purulent meningitis(PM)and cryptococcal meningitis(CM) was 63.8%,17.4%,7.7%,0.7% respectively.The hospitalization number of viral meningitis (encephalitis),TBM,PM and CM in the 2001—2005 5-year period was 53.5%,21.3%,35.3%,and 77.3% higher than that of the 1996—2000 period.Whereas the hospitalization number of cerebral cysticercosis decreased by 32.4% than that of the last 5 years.The peak months of viral meningitis (encephalitis)in a year were July,August and September.The peak months of TBM in a year were April, May and June.The case fatality of viral meningitis(encephalitis),cerebral cysticercosis,TBM,PM and CM was 8.1%,6.9%,22.4%,12.9%,33.3% respectively.Conclusions In the past l0 years,the incidence of common infectious diseases of CNS has increased in Shijiazhuang except cerebral cysticercoids. Our vigilance should be improved and some effective measures should be adopted to keep away infectious diseases of CNS.

Objective To investigate the changes of lead,zinc,copper,iron and calcium in blood of chronic poisoned infantal mice.(Methods) Forty-eight 21 day-old kunzea mice were randomly divided into 4 groups,each having 12 mice.Distilled water group was as control group and other three lead acetate poisoning groups had a dose of 10,20,40 mg/kg,respectively.The poisoning was carried out by lavage once a day,and consecutively for 46 days.Eyeballs of mice were picked then for blood sampling,and BS trace element analysis grapher was used to determine level of lead,zinc,copper and iron.Level of calcium was measured by Dimentional-RXL auto-biochemistry analysis meter.Results The lead and zinc levels in poisoned mice blood were increased with increasing lead acetate level administration,while zinc level changed inversely with lead acetate level.Significant differences were shown among control group and poisoning groups in terms of lead(P0.05).Conclusion Lead posioning can lead to zinc decreasing and copper(increa)-sing,which suggests that zinc works as a poential antidote of lead poisoning.

Objective: To understand the relationship between mental health status and vision-related quality of life( VRQL ) of students with moderate and high myopia, and to provide basis for the optimization of VRQL. Methods: Using convenient sampling method, the 8-18 years old students with moderate and high myopia were selected from Sichuan, Chongqing and Zhejiang. The mental health status and VRQL of students with moderate and high myopia were evaluated with Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and Quality of Life Scale for Ametropia. The multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for VRQL. Results: A total of 360 questionnaires were sent out and 354 were effectively recovered, with an effective rate of 98.33%. There were 116 ( 32.77% ) boys and 238 ( 67.23% ) girls; the median age was 16.65 years old. There were 211 ( 59.60% ) cases of moderate myopia and 143 (40.40%) cases of high myopia.There were 141 ( 39.83% ) found to be anxious and 176 ( 49.72% ) depressed. The median score of Quality of Life Scale for Ametropia was 64. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that sex ( β＇= -0.179 ), diopter ( β＇= 0.208 ), eyesight with glasses ( β＇= -0.229 ) and anxiety ( β＇= 0.439 ) were influencing factors for VRQL. Conclusion The mental health problems of the students with medium and high myopia are prominent; anxiety has a significant impact on the VRQL of the students.

Objective To investigate the variations of the expression and activity of phosphatidyl inositol-3 kinase(PI-3K)in the adipose tissue of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM)and to explore its relationship with insulin resistance(IR)in these women.Methods The expression of PI-3K p85aprotein and mRNA in adipose tissue were detected by Western blot and Semi quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)in 20 GDM women(GDM group)and 20 normal pregnant women(normal group).The activity of PI-3K was determined by ELISA and IR index was calculated using homeostasis model assessment(HOMA)according to the results of fasting insulin(FINS)and fasting plasma glucose(FPG),which measured by oxidase assay and immunoradioassay,respectively.Results The expressions of PI-3K p85αmRNA and PI-3K p85a protein were markedly increased in the adipose tissue of GDM group than in the normal group(mRNA:0.83±0.03 vs 0.53±0.07,P＜0.01;protein:0.93±0.04 vs 0.71±0.06,P＜0.01).However,the PI-3K activity in the GDM groups was significantly down-regulated compared with the normal group(1.7±0.6 vs 5.2±0.5,P＜0.01).The levels of FPG and FINS (HOMA-IR)in the GDM group were all significantly higher than the normal group[FPG:(5.8±0.2)mmol/L vs(4.7±0.3)mmol/L;FINS:(14.8±0.2)mmol/L vs(11.2±0.3)mmol/L;HOMA-IR:1.3±0.4 vs 0.9±0.3,a11 P＜0.01]. Conclusions The decreased activity of PI-3K in the adipose tissue may be one of the molecular mechanisms for IR in GDM.

Objective To investigate the cell types of renal allograft intimal arteritis in posttransplantation patients and its relationship with peritubular capillaries (PTCs)C4d deposition. Methods Twenty allograft kidney transplant recipients from Jun 2006 to Jun 2008 were enrolled in the retrospective study. Twenty-one biopsy specimens with acute vascular rejection were immunostained for macrophages, T cells and C4d. In each biopsy specimen, arterial intimal macmphages and T cells were counted, and mean number of macrophages per "artery and T cells per artery were determined. The recipients were divided into C4d + and C4d- group according to whether C4d deposition in the PTCs. Results In the intimal arteritis of biopsies diagnosed as acute vascular rejection, the infiltrating cells were predominantly macrophages including C4d+ and C4d- group. T cells were the minority. The mean macrophage number per artery cross-section was significantly higher than the mean T cell number per artery cross-section in the C4d + group (12.45±9.86 vs 3.91±3.03, P=0.007) and in the C4d- group (3.47±1.89 vs 1.45±1.37, P=0.006). Forther more, the mean number of macrophage per artery cross-section in the C4d+ group was significantly higher than that in the C4d- group (P=0.007). Conclusions In the intimal arteritis of biopsies diagnosed as acute vascular rejection, the infiltrating cells are predominantly macrophages which has relationship with peritubular capillary C4d deposition. The mean number of macmphage per artery cross-section in the C4d+ biopsies is significantly higher than that in the C4d- biopses.

Objective To investigate the cell types of renal allograft glomerulitis in posttransplantation patients and its relationship with peritubular capillary (PTC) C4d deposition.Methods Fifty-one allograft kidney transplant recipients diagnosed as acute rejection from June 2006 to June 2009 in our center were enrolled in this retrospective study. Fifty-one biopsy specimens of these patients accompanied with glomerulitis were examined by immunostain for macrophages, T cells, granzyme B, Foxp3 and C4d. Glomeular macrophages, T cells, cytotoxic T cells, regulatory T cells were counted. The recipients were divided into C4d+ and C4d- groups according to the C4d deposition in peritubular capillaries. Results The total number of glomerular infiltrating cells in C4d+ group was significantly higher than that in C4d- group (17.79±7.70 vs 8.17±3.80, P＜0.01). The infiltrating cell was predominantly macrophage in CAd+ group and significantly higher as compared to C4d- group (13.73 ±7.03 vs 2.57 ±1.22, P＜0.01).However, the infiltrating cell was predominantly T cell in C4d- group and significantly higher as compared to C4d+ group (5.60±2.81 vs 4.05±2.60, P=0.023). The infiltrating T cells in both groups were predominantly cytotoxic T cells. Conclusions The total number of infiltrating cells in glomerulitis is related to peritubular capillary C4d deposition. The infiltrating cell is predominantly macrophage in C4d+ group and predominantly T cell in C4d- group. Meanwhile the infiltrating T cell in both groups is predominantly cytotoxic T cell.
