OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and tendency towards drug resistance of Candida albicans which causing clinical deep infection and to supply data to clinical treatment. METHODS The distribution and tendency towards drug resistance of C. albicans isolates from infected patients from Jan 2007 to Dec 2007 were analyzed retrospectively.RESULTS All 1698 strains of Candida were isolated from patients sputum,urine,blood,secretion,etc. From 1075 cases with C. albicans,965(89.8%) strains were isolated from sputum. The resistance rate to nyststin,fluconazole,itraconazole,5-fluorocytosine and amphotericin B were 3.9%,3.6%,2.5%,0.5% and 0,respectively. The factors related to nosocomial C. albicans infection were the use of antibiotics and condition,invasive procedure,physical fitness,age,basic state of patients,etc.CONCLUSIONS The incidence and resistance of C. albicans infection in a hospital have increasing by years. Proper use of antibiotics and immunodepressors,reduction of unnecessary operation,and early diagnosis and treatment are the keys in preventing from systemic C. albicans infection.

Objective To evaluate the validity, reliability and feasibility of Chinese version of Aggressive Behavior-Teacher' s Checklist (TCL) among preschool children. Methods TCL was translated and administered with Child Behavior Checklist (CBCI)-aggressive subscale to 148 preschool children in Shanghai. Validity and reliability of TCL was evaluated using standard psychometric analyses. Results Each item of Chinese version of TCL was significantly correlated with the subscale it belonged to(P<0. 01). The criterion validities of reactive aggressive subscale and proactive aggressive subscale among boys and girls were from 0.491 to 0. 733. The construct validity was also confirmed by factor analysis with 78.489% variance explained by two factors. Cronbach's alpha of TCL and its two subscales were 0. 891,0. 814, and 0. 880 respectively. The test-retest reliability and the inter-rater reliability coefficients of reactive aggressive subscale and proactive aggressive subscale were all above 0. 7. Conclusion Chinese version of Aggressive Behavior-Teachers Checklist has good validity and reliability among preschool children in Shanghai, and can be applied in kindergartens and schools to evaluate and deal with aggressive behavior among these children.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the extraction technology of polysaccharides from antlion and explore its effect on im-mune functions of mice. METHODS:Using content of polysaccharides as investigation index,the effects of extracting polysaccha-rides from antlion by water extraction method protease hydrolysis extraction(optimized by orthogonal test using extraction tempera-ture,enzyme dosage,extraction time as indexes),and diluted alkali extraction(optimized by orthogonal test using alkali concentra-tion,extraction temperature,extraction time as indexes)were compared. 128 KM mice were randomly divided into 4 groups,then randomly divided into control group(normal saline),polysaccharides low-dose,medium-dose,high-dose groups(20,40,80 mg/kg),8 in each group,iv in tail vein,0.2 mL/10 g,once a day,for 1 week,which were respectively used to determine the phago-cytosis percentage and phagocytic index of peritoneal macrophages,spleen and thymus index,lymphocyte transformation rate and serum hemolysin levels. RESULTS:The contents of polysaccharides by 3 methods were 14.48%,38.66%,30.62%,respectively. The content of polysaccharides by protease hydrolysis extraction was the highest,the optimal extraction technology were as follows as using 100 μg/g papain extracting 3 h under 40 ℃. Compared with control group,phagocytosis percentage,phagocytic index, spleen index in polysaccharides low-dose,medium-dose,high-dose groups were significantly increased (P<0.05),thymus index was significantly decreased(P<0.05),while lymphocyte transformation rate had no significant changes(P>0.05);serum hemoly-sin in polysaccharides medium-dose group was significantly increased (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Protease hydrolysis extraction is suitable for the extraction of polysaccharides from antlion,the optimal technology is reliable. Polysaccharides from antlion show activity in enhancing mice non-specific immunity and humoral immunity.

Objective:To evaluate the best preventive measures for hypothermia in patients undergoing hip and knee replacement.Methods:Cochrane Library, PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and Chinese biomedical literature database were searched by computer. Randomized controlled trials on hypothermia prevention measures in hip and knee arthroplasty were searched, and back into the literature references, the retrieval time is from database establishment to December 2019; the two researchers independently conducted literature screening, quality evaluation, and data extraction according to the inclusion exclusion criteria, and used Revman5.3 software for meta-analysis of the included literature.Results:A total of 608 patients were included in 11 literatures. The results of Meta-analysis showed that: in terms of core temperature, the main outcome index, the Forced-air Warming System was superior to the non-Forced-air Warming measure such as electric blanket, electric heating pad and circulating water mattress ( SMD=0.59, 95% CI 0.27-0.92, P=0.0004); in terms of secondary outcome indexes, the Forced-air Warming System was better than the non-Forced-air Warming measure such as electric blanket, electric heating pad and circulating water mattress ( OR=0.28, 95% CI 0.14-0.58, P=0.0006); in terms of thermal comfort, the Forced-air Warming System had no significant effect ( SMD = 0.21, 95% CI-0.56-0.98, P=0.59). Conclusion:Compared with the Forced-air Warming System, the non-Forced-air Warming measure can effectively maintain the core temperature of patients undergoing hip and knee arthroplasty, reduce the occurrence of postoperative chills, but in the aspect of improve thermal comfort of patients is not obvious. However, due to the number of studies and their statistical heterogeneity, large sample and high-quality studies are needed to verify the results of this study.

Abstract BACKGROUND: Large amounts of data have shown that Chinese herbal monomer has a neuroprotective effect, and can improve the quality of life in stroke patients with cerebral nervous system injury. Nuclear-factor-erythroid 2-related (Nrf2) factor has neuroprotective effect on hemorrhagic stroke and ischemic stroke, which is an important way to reverse the damage of nervous system through the natural non-toxic Chinese herbs or composition, but it is rarely reported systemicaly. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the neuroprotective effect of Chinese herbal monomersvia the Nrf2 signal pathway in stroke patients. METHODS:The first author retrieved the CNKI, VIP, Medline, and PubMed databases by computer. The keywords were “Nrf2, ARE, stroke, traditional Chinese medicine, neuroprotection” in Chinese and English,respectively. Articles concerning the neuroprotective role of Chinese herbal monomervia Nrf2 were analyzed and discussed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Totaly 85 articles were retrieved. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 46 articles were included in result analysis. The results show that a variety of monomers can exert neuroprotective effectsvia the Nrf2 pathway. Chinese herbal monomers include organic acids, phenols, saponins, terpenes, flavonoids, alkaloids, and other single or composite components. Traditional Chinese medicine has the clear neuroprotective effect after stroke, but it is lack of regularity, and it is stil need to expand the data and further research as the basis.
