Objective To understand and analysis of the pathogens distribution and drug resistance of nosocomial infection in children′s hospital,so as to provide reliable scientific basis for the prevention and control of hospital infection.Methods 396 cases of upper respiratory tract specimens were collected from pediatric patients with nosocomial infection.These specimens were detected by sputum specimens conventional methods of microorganism cultivation,and K-B method was used to determine the bacteria sensi-tivities to clinical common drug.Results There were 225 cases of specimens were pathogen positive among all the 396 specimens, and 234 strains of bacteria were isolated in all.The positive isolated rate was 56.8%(225/396).Among the 234 isolated strains, Gram negative bacteria accounted for 72.6%(170/234),and Klebsiella occupied the first place[49.4%(84/170)].Gram positive bacteria accounted for 23.5%(55/234),and Staphylococcus had the highest isolated rate in Gram positive bacteria[58.2% (32/55)].In all the 9 kinds of clinical common antimicrobial agents,imipenem had high drug sensitivity to the 234 isolated strains,and the aminoglycosides came next.Conclusion It is necessary for the pediatric patients with nosocomial infection to collect upper re-spiratory tract specimens for bacteriologic studies and drug sensitivity tests.

Objective To evaluate the effect of abducens orthosis combined with walker on de-velopmental dysplasia of the hip ( DDH ). Methods A total of 126 patients (224 hips ) with DDH aged 6～36 months in Xiangya Hospital was randomly divided into 2 groups: an orthosis combined with walker group and an improved hip frog cast fixation group. Seventy patients (130 hips) were treated by the orthosis combined with walker and 56 patients (94 hips) were treated by the improved hip frog cast fixation. We compared the effect and complications of the 2 groups. Results The fine-ness rates of the orthosis combined with walker group and the improved hip frog cast fixation group were 89.2% and 90.4% , respectively, with no significant difference (P>0.05). The rate of femoral head osteonecrosis in the orthosis combined with walker group was significantly lower than that in the improved hip frog cast fixation group (1.5 % vs. 5.3 % , P<0.05) , but the re-dislocation rate in the former was significantly higher than that in the latter (6.9 % vs. 1.1% , P<0.05). Conclusion Both methods are effective for DDH. Orthosis combined with walker has a lower propor-tion of femoral head osteonecrosis, but a higher proportion of re-dislocation.

Objective To investigate the level of chemotactic factors(CXCL5 and CXCL8)in hepatic fibrosis and cirrhosis tissue.Methods Hepatic tissues were obtained from 9 patients with hepatic hemangioma (hepatic hemangioma group),10 patients with liver fibrosis(liver fibrosis group)and 11 patients with liver cirrhosis(1iver cirrhosis group)at Nanfang Hospital from May 2008 to May 2009.The contents of CXCL5 and CXCL8 in hepatic tissue were assayed by ELISA.All data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA,Pearson rank correlation or Spearman correlation.Results The contents of CXCL5 and CXCL8 were(0.8±0.7)ng/g and(6.2±3.7)ng/g in hepatic hemangioma group,(2.0±2.0)ng/g and(11.6±3.5)ng/g in liver fibrosis group and (17.1±4.8)ng/g and(12.3±3.9)ng/g in liver cirrhosis group,with significant difference among the 3 groups (F=60.050,7.690,P＜0.05).The expression of CXCL5 was correlated with the content of alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST)and prothrombin time(PT)(r=0.502,0.468,0.523,P＜0.05):the expression of CXCL8 was correlated with the content of ALT,AST.total bilirubin and PT(r=0.477,0.504,0.537,0.431,P＜0.05).Conclusions With the aggravation of hepatic fibrosis,the contents of CXCL5 and CXCL8 are increased with different patterns.The changes of CXCL5 and CXCL8 are related with the injury of liver,but the changes of CXCL5 and CXCL8 do not correspond with the degree of the injury of liver.

Objective To investigate the effect of herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase/ganciclovir (HSV-TK/GGV)system driven by human alpha fetoprotein(AFP)enhancer on hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)cells in vitro and in vivo.Methods HCC-specific eukarotypic expression vector carrying suicide gene driven by AFP enhancer(pAFP-cDNA3.1-TK)was constructed.The plasmid was trasfected to AFP-positive HepG2 cells and AFP-negative SMMC7721 cells by liposomes.Protein and mRNA expressions of TK were detected by RT-PCR or Western blot.The survival rates of HCC cells were detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium assay.The effects of GGV on the in vitro proliferation,survival and apoptosis of HCC cells were observed,and the inhibitive effect of GGV on the survival of HCC cells in vivo was also detected.All data were analyzed by using the t test.Results The pAFP-cDNA3.1-TK was successfully constructed and transfected to the HCC cells.The protein and mRNA expressions of TK were detected in AFP-positive HepG2 cells.GGV dose-and time-dependently inhibited the growth and induced the apoptosis of HepG2 cells in vitro,but it had no effect on SMMC7721 cells.No protein or mRNA expression of TK was detected in the SMMC7721 cells.There was a significant difference on the inhibitory effects of GGV on HepG2 cells and SMMC7721 cells(t =2.58,2.73,3.12,P ＜0.05).GGV specifically inhibited the growth of AFP-positive HepG2 cells,and the inhibition rate was 46%;the growth of AFP-negative SMMC7721 cells was not influenced by GGV.There was a significant difference in the inhibitive effect of GGV on the growth of HepG2 cells and SMMC7721 cells(t = 3.36,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion HSV-TK/GGV systemdriven by human APF enhancer kills APF-positive HCC cells and inhibits the growth of HCC cells.

ObjectiveTo study the value of C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-6(IL-6) in the (diagnosis) of acute pancreatitis (AP) associated with infection. MethodsSixty SD rats were randomly (assigned) into group AP (n=40) and sham-operation group (S, n=20). Plasma CRP and IL-6 were detected before AP(0h), and at 12h, 24h and 48h after AP. Serum amylase detection and ascitic bacteria culture were carried out at 48h. Results(1)In AP group, 36 rats were alive. Ascitic infection developed in 16 cases (group AP1), and not in the other 20 cases (group AP2). (2)Plasma CRP and IL-6 levels in group AP1 and AP2 were significantly higher than those in group S (all, P0.05). (3)In group AP1, IL-6 and CRP elevated significantly at all time periods after the model setup (P0.05). (Conclusions)Plasma CRP has predictive value in the diagnosis of early infection in acute pancreatitis, but plasma IL-6 is not sensitive to secondary bacteria infection in acute pancreatitis.

BACKGROUND:Artificial knee joint replacement is the main surgical method for the treatment of severe knee joint deformation, but due to the limited existing knee prosthesis type. The stature of Fujian population in southeast China was shorter than that of the north. The size of artificial knee joint usual y did not fit for patients in clinic. The substitution effect was poor.
OBJECTIVE:To measure the geometric parameters of proximal surface and cross-section of adult female tibia in southeastern area of Fujian Province of China, and provide basic data for design and replacement of artificial knee joint in females.
METHODS:We chose 85 cases of dry female skeleton in southeastern area of Fujian Province of China, measured tibial plateau width, medial tibial plateau width and anteroposterior diameter, lateral tibial plateau width and anteroposterior diameter. We col ected clinical normal proximal tibial CT data of 36 patients (38-65 years old), with scan range of 30 cm (intercondylar eminence 30 cm) and layer thickness of 0.625 mm. Mimics 16.0 three-dimensional reconstruction software was used to measure above indexes and cut the reconstructed models with thickness of 3 mm, total y 10 layers. We divided its widest distance into four equal parts, and measured tibial anteroposterior diameter on three points. Statistical software was used to analyze the linear relationship between the data.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The experiment has successful y obtained geometric parameters of tibial specimens of adult females in southeastern area of Fujian province of China. Tibia platform inside and outside diameters were greater than the width inside and outside;inside and outside diameter and inside and outside width were similar. Ten segment planes of tibia, inside and outside diameters were always less than middle anteroposterior diameter. Three groups of data increased firstly, and then reduced. There were positive correlations between tibia length and width of the medial tibia platform, the lateral tibia platform width and anteroposterior diameter, the medial tibia platform width and anteroposterior diameter, and the lateral tibia platform width and anteroposterior diameter (P<0.05). These results suggested that relevant parameters of tibial plateau adult women in southeastern area of Fujian province of China showed some regular changes. Our results may provide quantitative reference data for the design and operation of artificial tibial plateau.

Objective To investigate the effect of cerebral ischemia on functional parameters of affected arteries and probe into the possible pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods Intraluminal suture ischemic model was used by occlusion of left middle cerebral artery in rats.Two hours later,the middle cerebral artery segments were isolated from both ischemia and control groups for measurement of changes in vessel diameter induced by increasing pressure and vasoactive compounds.And then,distensibility,myogenic tone,reactivity to 5-HT and ACh were calculated and compared between groups.Results In lower pressure range,ischemic vessels showed an increased myogenic tone(at 40 mm Hg,1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa,19.3%±0.4% vs 10.0%±0.2%,t=20.568,P=0.000)and decreased diameter.In higher pressure range,ischemic vessels showed an increased diameter.distensibility and decreased myogenic tone(at 120 mm Hg,12.0%±0.2% vs 21.8%±0.4%,t=-23.575,P=0.000).In normal pressure range,myogenic tone was not altered after ischemia. Both groups constricted to 5-HT and dilated to ACh,however,the response was significantly diminished after ischemla.Conclusion These findings demonstrate that contractile and diastolic function of affected artery was impaired after ischemia,a result that may contribute to ischemia-reperfusion injury by losing upstream cerebrovascular resistance and increasing perfusion on the microcirculation.

Objective:To study the value of cell paraffin block immunohistochemistry and pleural fluid Crk like protein (CRKL) and macrophage inhibitory cytokine-1 (MIC-1) in the diagnosis of malignant pleural effusion.Methods:A total of 98 patients with pleural effusion treated in Shantou Central Hospital from February 2020 to February 2021 were retrospectively selected as the research objects, including 58 benign cases and 40 malignant cases. The levels of CRKL and MIC-1 in pleural effusion were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The pleural effusion was analyzed by cell paraffin block immunohistochemistry. The levels of various indexes in benign group and malignant group were compared. The diagnostic value of cell paraffin block immunohistochemistry and pleural effusion CRKL and MIC-1 for benign and malignant pleural effusion was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:With pathological results as the gold standard, 54 cases of benign and 44 cases of malignant were diagnosed by cell paraffin block immunohistochemistry. The diagnostic accuracy was 75.5% (74/98) , and the sensitivity and specificity were 75.0% (30/40) and 75.9% (44/58) respectively. The levels of pleural effusion CRKL [2.84 (2.17, 3.98) ng/ml vs. 1.88 (0.94, 2.62) ng/ml], MIC-1 [2.28 (1.67, 2.98) ng/ml vs. 1.76 (1.22, 2.32) ] ng/ml] in the malignant group were higher than those in the benign group, with statistically significant differences ( Z=-4.57, P<0.001; Z=-3.09, P<0.001) . The optimal critical value of CRKL in pleural effusion for the diagnosis of malignant pleural effusion was 2.33 ng/ml, the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.76 (95% CI: 0.66-0.85) , and the sensitivity and specificity were 67.5% (27 /40) , 74.1% (43/58) . The optimal critical value of MIC-1 in pleural effusion for the diagnosis of malignant pleural effusion was 2.10 ng/ml, the AUC was 0.74 (95% CI: 0.64-0.85) , and the sensitivity and specificity were 60.0% (24/40) , 82.8% (48/58) . The AUC of MIC-1 and CRKL in pleural effusion combined with cell paraffin block immunohistochemistry for the diagnosis of malignant pleural effusion was 0.83 (95% CI: 0.75-0.91) , and the sensitivity and specificity were 85.0% (34/40) and 70.7% (41/58) . The sensitivity and AUC of combined diagnosis were significantly higher than those of CRKL and MIC-1 alone (sensitivity: χ2=4.26, P=0.046; χ2=6.27, P=0.012; AUC: Z=3.53, P<0.001; Z=4.14, P<0.001) . Conclusion:CRKL and MIC-1 in pleural effusion of patients with malignant pleural effusion are highly expressed, which can be used as indicators for the diagnosis of malignant pleural effusion. Detection combined with cell paraffin block immunohistochemistry can improve the diagnostic value of malignant pleural effusion.

Objective To report the clinical effects of a 3D-printed metal drilling template used in surgery for complex upper cervical disorders.Methods Between August 2015 and June 2017,5 patients with upper cervical disorder complicated with complex cranial cervical junction deformity underwent instrumentation and fusion.They were 4 males and one female,aged from 3 to 36 years.All the patients underwent thin slice CT scan before operation.The CT image data were imported into a computer workstation for three dimensional reconstruction of individualized models of the upper cervical spine on which individualized drilling templates were designed.Guided by each of the individualized metal drilling templates manufactured by 3D printing,surgery via the posterior approach was performed in 2 cases and surgery via the combined anterior and posterior approach in 3 cases.After surgery,the screw trajectory was evaluated by CT scan.Results Surgery succeeded in all the 5 patients.A total of 5 pedicle screws and 5 laminar screws were drilled.Postoperative CT scan showed accurate placement of all the 10 screws.The patients recovered with no neurovascular complications.Conclusion Since an individualized 3D-printed metal drilling template can improve the accuracy and safety of screw placement,it can reduce surgical risks and enhance surgical success in the surgery for complex upper cervical disorders.
