OBJECTIVETo observe the protective effect of active fractions of Huanglian Jiedu Decoction (HJD) on primary cortical neuron injury after oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD)/reperfusion (R) injury. Methods Using macroporous resin method, HJDFE30, HJDFE50, HJDFE75, and HJDFE95 with 30%, 50%, 75%, and 95% alcohol were respectively prepared. Then the content of active components in different HJD fractions was determined with reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The OGD/R injury model was induced by sodium dithionite on primary cortical neurons in neonate rats. MTT assay was used to observe the effect of four fractions (HJDFE30, HJDFE50, HJDFE75, and HJDFE95) and seven index components of HJD on the neuron viability.

RESULTSRP-HPLC showed active component(s) contained in HJDFE30 was geniposide; baicalin, palmatine, berberine, and wogonside contained in HJDFE50; baicalin, berberine, baicalein, and wogonin contained in HJDFE75. The neuron viability was decreased after OGD for 20 min and reperfusion for 1 h, (P <0. 01), and significantly increased after administered with HJD, HJDFE30, HJDFE50, and HJDFE75 (P <0. 05, P <0. 01). Geniposide, baicalin, baicalein, palmatine, wogonside, and wogonin could increase the cortical neuron viability (P <0. 05, P <0. 01).

CONCLUSIONSHJDFE30, HJDFE50, and HJDFE75, as active fractions of HJD, had protective effect on primary cortical neuron injury after OGD/R. Furthermore, geniposide, baicalin, and baicalein were main active components of HJD.

Objective:To analysis the impact of public health emergencies on mood fluctuations of depression and the related factors in the elderly in Shanghai, in order to provide a new evidence for early psychological intervention.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 983 elderly in the Department of Geriatrics of Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University and two communities in Changning and Hongkou Districts of Shanghai by using a self-compiled social life questionnaire and Geriatric Depression Scale(GDS-30)during corona virus disease(COVID)-19 outbreak from 1 February to 15 February 2020.The mood fluctuations of depression and the related influencing factors were analyzed by comparing the current GDS-30 scores with the scores within previous six months.Results:Of 983 questionnaires, 867 were valid.The incidence of mild fluctuations of depression was increased from 20.9%(181/867)to 27.2%(235/867)during the public health emergencies( P<0.05), with 3 cases of newly emerged severe depression.The GDS-30 scores were higher during the public health emergencies than before the emergencies(9.88±3.85 vs.7.67±3.54, P<0.05). The four risk factors inducing fluctuations of depression in the elderly were the number of coexisted chronic diseases ≥2( P=0.036), the lack of visits or communication from families( P=0.015), the family members exposing a risk to COVID-19( P<0.01), and the daily viewing of epidemic news more than 4 h( P=0.023). Linear regression analysis showed that cough, sore throat, dizziness, sleep disturbance and dyspnea were significantly related to the aggravation of depression(based on the increase of GDS-30 score)( P<0.05). Conclusions:Public health emergencies may exacerbate depression in the elderly.They are more likely to experience the aggravation of depression when they suffer from multiple chronic diseases, lack the child visits or communications, have the family members exposing a risk to COVID-19 and pay excessive attention to the epidemic.

Objective To investigate distribution and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria in lower respitatory tract infection. Methods Distribution and drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria in lower respitatory tract infection of patients in ICU and non-ICU of our hospital during 2013 were retrospectivly analyzed. The pathogens were identified by manual methods routinely and those difficult to be identified were analyzed by using the VITEK-2-COMPACT instrument. Antimicrobial susceptibility of these isolates were tested by Kirby-Bauey methods routinely. Results In total, 956 strains were isolated from lower respitatory tract infection of patients in ICU, including 231 strains of gram-positive cocci (24. 2%), 680 strains of gram-negative bacteria (71. 1%), 45 strains of fungi (4. 7%). In patients of non-ICU, 4 464 strains were isolated, including 1 090 strains of gram-positive cocci (24. 4%), 3 226 strains of gram-negative bacteria (72. 3%), and 148 strains of fungi (3. 3%). Staphylococcus aureus, acinetobacter baumannii and pseudomonas aeruginosa were the most frequent isolates in patients of ICU and non-ICU. The overall prevalence of methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in staphylococcus aureus was 87. 0%in ICU and 74. 0% in non-ICU. MSSA was sensitive to the most antibiotics ( more than 80. 0% of the strains were sensitive to common antibiotics) except penicillin, erythromycin and clindamycin. MRSA was sensitive to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and fosfomycin (more than 75. 0% of the strains were sensitive to the antibiotics) except for vancomycin, teicoplanin and linezolid. Acinetobacter baumannii was more resistant to the antibiotics (less than 40. 0% of the strains were susceptible to the antibiotics). Pseudomonas aeruginosa from ICU was more resistant to the antibiotics ( less than 50. 0% of the strains were sensitive to the antibiotics) than that from non-ICU. Stenotrophomonas maltophilia was sensitive to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, levofloxacin and minocycline (more than 80. 0% of the strains were sensitive to the antibiotics). Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were sensitive to Piperacillin-tazobactam and Amikacin except for meropenem and imipenem ( more than 80. 0% of the strains were sensitive to the antibiotics) . Conclusion Gram-negative bacteria was the most frequent isolate in lower respitatory tract infection of our hospital during 2013. Staphylococcus aureus, acinetobacter baumannii and pseudomonas aeruginosa were the most frequent isolates in ICU and non-ICU. Resistance to the antibiotics was more common in ICU than in non-ICU. Antibiotics should be prescribed according to bacterial resistance results reasonably in order to prevent the spread of drug-resistant strains.

[Summary] Hypercalcemia in pregnancy is a rare condition which brings considerable risks to mother and fetus. The most common cause is primary hyperparathyroidism(PHPT). The untypical symptoms and biochemical tests results add obstacles in the diagnosis of PHPT during pregnancy. The management is difficult, due to restrictions in choices of treatments and lack of clinical guidelines. Severity evaluation which takes consideration of calcium homeostasis during pregnancy is crucial for appropriate management. Parathyroidectomy during the second trimester is recommended for those with high serum calcium levels.

Objective To evaluate the precision of GFR using Gates method and compared with the results from renal pathological changes. Methods Twenty-seven patients whose 99Tcm-DTPA renograms had no obvious uptake phase were enrolled in Group A, and 27 patients whose 99Tcm-DTPA renograms had obvious uptake phase were enrolled in Group B. The measurement of GFR by Gates method was compared to the creatinine clearance measured and predicted by Cockroft-Gault (C-G), modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) and SCr level. Renal pathological changes in two groups were compared using Pearson correlation and t test analysis. Results In Group A, GFR determined by Gates method did not show correlation with that estimated by C-G or 1/SCr (r = 0. 357,0. 376, both P ＞0.05), but was significantly correlated with GFR estimated by MDRD(r = 0. 440, P ＜ 0.05). In Group B, GFR determined by Gates method showed significantly correlation among GFR estimated by MDRD, C-G, and 1/SCr (r =0. 471, 0. 527,0. 452, all P ＜ 0.05). Renal tubulointerstitial damage score in Group A was higher than that in Group B (7.15±2.32, 3.70±3.06, t=4.66, P ＜0.001). Conclusions GFR determined by Gates method is less precise when 99Tcm-DTPA renogram has no obvious uptake phase than that when 99Tcm-DTPA renogram has obvious uptake phase. Renal tubulointerstitial damage is a strong indicator of no obvious uptake phase in 99Tcm-DTPA renogram.

Objective To evaluate the capability of four tests for identification of the in vitro suscepti-bility of tigecycline against Acinetobacter and Enterobacteriaceae isolates.Methods Disk diffusion test was per-formed to detect the sensitivity of 158 Acinetobacter and 339 Enterobacteriaceae isolates to tigecycline.The mini-mum inhibitory concentrations ( MICs) of tigecycline for non-sensitive isolates were detected by using broth dilu-tion method ( BDM) , MIC Test Strip ( MTS) and agar dilution method.The differences with antimicrobial sus-ceptibility among the four different methods were evaluated.Results Tigecycline showed good antibacterial ac-tivity against both non-sensitive Acinetobacter and Enterobacteriaceae isolates with most of the MIC50 values in the sensitivity range of (0.5-2) mg/L and all of the MIC90 values of 4 mg/L.The MIC50 and MIC90 values measured by BDM were respectively 1 mg/L and 4 mg/L.The sensitivity rates presented by the results of BDM were re-spectively 87.1%and 70.2%based on the standards made by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Euro-pean Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing ( EUCAST) .Agar dilution method indicated that most of the MICs of tigecycline to Acinetobacter and Enterobacteriaceae isolates were two dilutions higher than those de-tected by BDM with essential agreement (EA) rate of 56.5%.Both the very major error (VME) and the major error (ME) values were 0 and the categorical agreement (CA) rate was 46.8%according to the FDA standard.The VME and CA values were 0.8% and 24.2% based on EUCAST standard.Compared with agar dilution method, MTS showed better results in determining the susceptibility of Acinetobacter and Enterobacteriaceae iso-lates to tigecycline with MIC50 and MIC90 values of 1.5 mg/L and 4 mg/L, which was similar to the capability of BDM.Referring to the FDA and EUCAST standards, the sensitivity rates were 83.1% and 21.0%, the CA rates was 81.5%and 29.8%, and the EA rate was 71.8%.Most of the results tested by MTS were one dilution higher than those by BDM.FDA standard showed better correlation than EUCAST standard.Disk diffusion method showed the ME, mE, VME and CA values were respectively 19.4%, 71.8%, 0 and 8.9%according to FDA standard.Conclusion Disk diffusion method, MTS and agar dilution method all showed differences with BDM in susceptibility testing.The capability of MTS was similar to that of BDM.The results evaluated by FDA standard were better than those by EUCAST standard.The in vitro susceptibility of bacteria to tigecycline could be tested by disk diffusion method using FDA standard for evaluation, and confirmed with MTS if isolates were resistance or intermediate strains.The BDM could be performed for further confirmation if necessary.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinicopathologic features, immunohistochemical findings, EBV and c-myc gene status of intra-abdominal non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma occurring in children.

METHODSSeventy-four cases of pediatric intra-abdominal non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma were retrieved from the archival file. The cases were classified according to the 2008 WHO classification. Tissue microarray including tumor tissues from all the 74 cases was produced. Immunohistochemical study (SP method) for CD20, CD3, CD79a, CD10, bcl-6, MUM1, bcl-2, CD43, CD38 and Ki-67 was performed. In-situ hybridization for Epstein-Barr virus-encoded RNA (EBER) and fluorescence in-situ hybridization for c-myc gene were also carried out.

RESULTSAmongst the 74 cases studied, 65 of them (87.8%) were Burkitt lymphoma (BL), 4 cases (5.4%) were diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and the remaining 5 cases (6.8%) showed features in-between DLBCL and BL (DLBCL/BL). The patients often presented with abdominal pain, abdominal masses, ileus and intussusception. The ileocecal bowel wall and mesenteric lymph nodes were commonly involved. The lymphoma cells were of high histologic grade and suggested an aggressive clinical behavior. The staining for CD20 and CD79a were positive in all of the cases, while CD3 was negative. The positive rates of CD10, bcl-6, bcl-2, MUM1, CD43, CD38 and EBER in BL were 96.9% (63 cases), 95.4% (62 cases), 0 (0 case), 23.1% (15 cases), 70.8% (46 cases), 96.9% (63 cases) and 41.5% (27 cases), respectively. Fifty-four cases carried translocation of c-myc gene. As for DLBCL, the positive cases of CD10, bcl-6, bcl-2, MUM1, CD43, CD38 and EBER were 3 cases, 2 cases, 3 cases, 2 cases, 2 cases, 2 cases and 0 case, respectively. One of these cases showed c-myc gene translocation. Amongst the 4 cases of DLBCL, 2 of them belonged to germinal center B-cell-like subtype, while the remaining 2 cases were of non-germinal center B-cell-like subtype. The expression rates of CD10, bcl-6, bcl-2, MUM1, CD43, CD38 and EBER in DLBCL/BL were 5/5, 4/5, 0, 3/5, 5/5, 3/5 and 0, respectively. Three of the cases were positive for c-myc gene translocation.

CONCLUSIONSThe majority of pediatric intra-abdominal non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma belonged to BL. They have characteristic clinical presentation and sites of predilection and are often associated with an aggressive clinical behavior. Thorough morphologic assessment, immunohistochemistry and in-situ hybridization play an important role in subtyping this group of lymphoid malignancy.

Objective To investigate the additional diagnostic value of 99Tcm-MDP SPECT/CT over conventional SPECT scan in patients with spinal bone malignancy. Methods Fifty-two patients (mean age (56±14) years) with suspicious spinal bone diseases underwent both bone SPECT and SPECT/CT imaging right after 99Tcm-MDP whole-body planar bone scintigraphy. All patients were pathologically diagnosed by either spine operation or trans-spinal biopsy. The images were evaluated by two independent reviewers; inter-reviewer agreement was evaluated using a weighted Kappa score. Each focus of abnormality was recorded using a 4-point diagnostic confidence scale: benign (B), possibly benign (PB), possibly malignant (PM) or malignant (M). Results Accord to the pathological results, 36 patients had bone malignancy (19 with metastatic tumors and 17 with non-metastatic tumors) and 16 had benign lesions. Over SPECT images, two reviewers rated 73.1% (38/52) and 67.3% (35/52) the lesions as the equivocal (PB or PM) respectively. Over SPECT/CT images, they rated only 25.0% (13/52) and 13.5% (7/52) lesions as the equivocal. Inter-reviewer agreement was 63.5% (weighted Kappa score=0.62) for SPECT and 78.9% (weighted Kappa score=0.81) for SPECT/CT. Conclusions Compared with99Tcm-MDP SPECT, 99Tcm-MDP SPECT/CT results in a significant reduction of equivocal diagnoses for the spinal bone malignancy.
