This text involved with a pre-enrichment medium for the simultaneous recovery of Salmonella spp.,Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.This medium is named buffered saline broth(BSB),which contains peptone 10g,beef exact 3g,disodium hydrogen phosphate 9g,potassium dihydrogen phosphate 1.5g,additive 50g,deionized water 1 000mL,pH7.2.1cfu per one milliliter of Salmonella spp.,Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus in saline were stimutaneously added to 97 mL of BSB,buffered peptone water,lactose broth,nutrient broth,Escherichia coli broth,rappaport-vassiliadis enrichment broth,7.5% sodium chloride enrichment medium,respectively,and incubated for 18h at 37℃.The results showed BSB was the best enrichment medium,in which Salmonella spp.,Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus multiplied at nearly same speed,and reached at 10~6 、10~6 、10~7 cfu/mL,respectively.Multiplex PCR produced specific amplicons of expected sizes,284bp for Salmonella spp.invA gene,622bp for Escherichia coli phoA gene,484bp for Staphylococcus aureus nuc gene.In contrast,the three bacteria couldn't multiply harmoniously in the other six media.So BSB might be considered as the medium,which could enrich above mentioned three bacteria.

Objective To observe the clinical effect by using insulin detemir therapy in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus(T1DM).Methods Thirty children and adolescents with T1DM were divided into 2 groups to receive Humulin R and Determir(observation group,n =15) or Humulin R and neutral protamine hagedorn (NPH) (control group,n =15)insulin therapy.Daily insulin dose,glycemic variability,incidence of non-severe and severe hypoglycemia events after the institution of insulin therapy were collected.Results The daily doses of insulin were (1.16 ± 0.30) U/kg in the observation group and(1.21 ± 0.35) U/kg in the control group,respectively.There was no clinically important change between 2 groups(t =0.526,P ＞ 0.05).Within-subject variation in fasting plasma glucose was significantly lower in observation group(29％)than that in control group(65％) (t =5.296,P ＜0.01).One case of severe hypoglycemia event occurred in the observation group,but 5 cases occurred in the control group(t =4.863,P ＜ 0.0l).Two cases of nocturnal hypoglycaemia(22:00-7:00) events occurred in the observation group,7 cases occurred in the control group(t =4.506,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Institution of insulin detemir therapy is associated with low within-subject variation in fasting plasma glucose and decreased rates of severe and nocturnal hypoglycemia while dose of insulin did not increase.This makes insulin detemir a valuable new tool for the treatment of children and adolescents with T1 DM.

Objective To explore the serum level of gentamycin for orally in children with serious illness.Methods The serum level of gentamycin in 41 children who were in serious illness [multiple organ dysfunction(MODS)group with 21 cases and non-MODS group with 20 cases ] were monitored and the patients were treated with select decontamination of the digestive tract(SDD) from October 2004 to April 2005.Dosage:10 mg/(kg?d),orally taken three times(every 8 hours) one day.The blood after taking the drug one hour later in the fourth day was selected and the serum level of getamycin was monitored.Results Thirty-six children of 41 cases serum level of gentamycin were negative and 5 children(4 in MODS group and 1 in non-MODS group) who had alimentary tract hemorrhage were masccline in serum after taking gentamycin one hour later in the forth day.The absorption of gentamycin from enteric after orally was not(rela)-ted to MODS.There were statistics value between the gestrintestinal tract ulcer and serum level of gentamycin.Conclusions The safety for treating the children in serious illness with gentamycin for SDD is obvious.But we suggest to monitor the serum level of gentamycin for who has severe alimentary tract hemorrhage together with insufficiency of liver and kindey.

Objective To set up a method of detecting platelet associated antibody(PA Ig) by flow cytometry(FCM),and to investigate the value of FCM method in the diagnosis of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura(ITP).Methods We detected the platelet associated antibody of 20 healthy donors and 10 patients with ITP.These samples were also measured with ELISA.The results of FCM were compared with the results of ELISA.Results By FCM,the measured value of PA IgG,PA IgA and PA IgM,from 20 normal dornors,were 2.56?2.08%、13.75?5.98% and 13.90?7.28%,respectively.In patients with ITP,PA IgG,PA IgA and PA IgM were 28.13?17.74%、25.07?16.84% and 23.22?17.85%.Conclusion FCM can be a rapid,sensitive and new method in detecting platelet autoantibody,and has better potential than ELISA.

Objective: To analyze the correlation of miR-625 expression with clinicopathological characteristics in esophageal squa-mous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and to explore the effect of miR-625 on the migration and proliferation of ESCC cells. Methods:The expres-sion level of miR-625 was determined through real-time PCR in 86 paired human ESCC tissue specimens and tumor-adjacent normal esophageal tissue specimens, ESCC cell lines, and esophageal epithelial cell line. The associations of miR-625 expression with clinico-pathological characteristics and survival in ESCC patients were analyzed. Transwell and CCK-8 assays were performed to examine the effect of miR-625 expression on migration and proliferation of ESCC cells. Results:Compared with tumor-adjacent normal specimens, miR-625 was significantly downregulated in ESCC tissue specimens (P<0.05). MiR-625 expression was decreased in ESCC cell lines com-pared with human esophageal epithelial cell lines (P<0.05). Lower miR-625 expression was associated with poorer prognosis and sur-vival. The migration and proliferation abilities of ESCC cells were inhibited by miR-625 overexpression (P<0.05). Conclusion:MiR-625 acts as a tumor suppressor gene in the development and progression of ESCC, suggesting that miR-625 may serve as an efficient prog-nosis biomarker and a potential therapeutic target for ESCC.
