Objective To summarize the clinical application of parenteral nutrition (PN) in Fuwai Hospital. Methods The clinical applications of PN in 132 critically ill patients undergoing cardiac surgery in our hospital were retrospectively investigated and analyzed. Results The application of PN in Fuwai hospital was basically appropriate and standardized. Energy supply in PN formulation was reasonably low, but still met the energy needs of patients in the fasting period. The nutritional composition and energy/nitrogen ratio in the formulation were basically rational. However, problems including the lack of double energy in partial formulation, low proportion of glucose-supplied energy due to low glucose-lipid ratio, and insufficient supply of insulin still existed. One (0.76%)patient was discharged according to his own decision; 22 ( 16.67% ) patients died, which were not directly associated with PN; and the other 109 (82.58%) patients were cured and discharged. Conclusion Application of PN for critically ill patients undergoing cardiac surgery must strictly follow the operation indications and rationally select nutritional components and proportions to ensure its safety and effectiveness.

Abstract: Objective To determine the rate of nasal carriage Staphylococcus aureus among healthcare workers in Department of Infectious Diseases department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University Hospital, and to perform characterization on isolated strains. Methods A cross-sectional study was performed on 86 healthcare workers from February 2022 to June. Nasal swabs were collected from the healthcare workers, and S. aureus were identified after incubation. Antibiotic susceptibility, including chlorhexidine and mupirocin, was assessed by disk diffusion and minimal inhibitory concentration method. The PCR technique was used to detect the biocide resistance genes (qacAB, smr, lmrS mepA, and sepA), virulence genes (pvl, fnbA/fnbB, sea, seb, sec, sed, tst, eta, etb) and mecA gene. SCCmec typing and multilocus sequence typing was performed. For mupirocin-resistant strains, PCR amplification and sequencing were used to identify whether the strains had ileS gene mutations or carried resistant genes (mupA and mupB). Results S. aureus was isolated from 37 of the 86 healthcare workers (43.02%) , including 13 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains. The strains showed low resistance rates to levofloxacin (2.70%, 1/37), chloramphenicol (8.11%, 3/37), tetracycline (8.11%, 3/37), gentamicin (10.81%, 4/37), and ciprofloxacin (10.81%, 4/37). A total of 17 strains were identified as multidrug-resistant strains. Four SCCmec types were identified in MRSA strains, with the type II being the most frequent (53.85%, 7/13), followed by type IV (30.77%, 4/13). ST59 (46.15%, 6/13) was the most frequent among MRSA strains, while ST5 (41.67%, 10/24) was the most frequent among methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) strains. sea was the most frequent virulence gene (56.76%, 21/37). sepA and mepA were detected in all 37 isolates. One Staphylococcus aureus strain was not sensitive to chlorhexidine, two strains had the missense mutation V588F (G1762T) and showed low level resistance to mupirocin, and one strain carrying mupA gene was highly resistant to mupirocin. Conclusion The nasal colonization rate of Staphylococcus aureus among healthcare worker in the investigated hospital was high, indicating a risk for nosocomial infections. Strengthened monitoring and decolonization treatment should be carried out to reduce these risks.

Objective To discuss the clinicopathologic characteristics and risk factors for lung metastasis of early-stage cervical cancer after radical hysterectomy. Methods The complete clinicopathologic data of patients with lung metastasis of cervical cancer after radical surgery from January 2008 to December 2013 admitted in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital were retrospectively analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis. Results (1)There were 38 cases of early cervical cancer suffered from lung metastasis after radical hysterectomy during the period. The median age at diagnosis of cervical cancer was 46 years, the average lung metastasis time was 13 months after operation, 50.0%(19/38) cases occurred in the first year. Thirty-one cases were squamous cell carcinoma and 7 cases were non-squamous cell carcinoma.(2)Univariate analysis showed that age,clinical stage, manner of tumor growth, tumor grade, perineuronal invasion, para-aortic lymph node metastasis were not significant effect on postoperative lung metastasis(all P>0.05). But tumor size, histologic types, depth of stromal invasion, uterine body infiltration, lympho-vascular space invasion,pelvic lymph node metastasis, positive margin and abnormal tumor markers were significantly correlated with postoperative lung metastasis(all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that only tumor size, histologic types and pelvic lymph node metastasis were independent risk factors for lung metastasis of cervical cancer(P<0.05). Conclusions Patients of early-stage cervical cancer with lung metastasis mostly occurs within 1 year after radical hysterectomy. Local large tumor lesions (tumor size>4 cm), non-squamous cell carcinoma and pelvic lymph node metastasis were more likely to have lung metastasis.
