The level of TNF-? showed a positive association with ALT in hepatitis group(r=0.76,P

Objective To investigate the molecule phenotype, epidemiology, and resistance genes of the New Delhi metallo- β-lactamase-1 ( NDM-1 ) producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ( K. pneumoniae ) . Methods Retrospective study was made on one hundred and ten non-repetitive carbepenem-resistant K. pneumoniae clinical isolated strains, which were collected from January 2011 to December 2012 in our hospital. The minimal inhibitory concentrations ( MICs ) of antibiotics were tested by the GN13 cards of BioMerieux Company. Modified Hodge test were used for the detection of carbapenemases. The blaNDM-1 encoding gene and linkage of ISAba125-NDM were detected by PCR method. The purified PCR products were cloned and sequenced. The homology of the K. pneumoniae were analyzed by the multilocus sequence typing ( MLST ) . Plasmid conjugation experiment and curing method were used to study the transfer of bacterial resistance. The Fisher′s exact probability test was used to compare the data. Results 13% NDM-1-producing K. pneumoniae were detected and confirmed as blaNDM-1 by sequencing (14/110). The resistance rates of the 14 NDM-1-producing K. pneumoniae strains to imipenem, meropenem, ertapenem, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, amikacin, and aztreonam were 14/14, 14/14, 13/14, 10/14, 9/14, 5/14, and 11/14. Meanwhile, the positive rate of ISAba125-NDM linkage of those 14 NDM-1-producing K. pneumoniae strains was 14/14. The E. coli J53 transconjugants, whose MICs of imipenem, meropenem, and ertapenem were increased by 4 to 64 times, were blaNDM-1 gene and ISAba125-NDM linkage positive. In addition, it was showed that the blaNDM-1 gene and ISAba125-NDM linkage were located on a plasmid with a size of approximately 65 000 bp. Conclusions The NDM-1 producing K. pneumoniae strains in this study were resistant to many commonly used antibiotics, however, the resistance rate to aminoglycoside and aztreonam were relatively low. The carbapenemase-resistant genotype spread by blaNDM-1 carried plasmid. Attention should be paid to its easily transmissible feature among the strains in clinic. The insertion sequence ISAba125 may be involved in the blaNDM-1 gene mediated carbapenemase-resistant genotype.

and adenovirns. The high rate of mixed viral infection brings clinical concern. ELISA combined with PCR improve the diagnostic sensitivity for norovirus, enteric adenovirns and astrovirus.

Objective To quantitatively assess the cardiopulmonary exercise function of spinal cord injury (SCI) patients and observe the effect of aerobic exercise on cardiopulmonary function, motor function and activities of daily living. Methods From December, 2014 to June, 2016, 34 incomplete SCI patients (ASIA C and D) and 23 healthy controls received cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET). SCI pa-tients were randomly divided into conventional rehabilitation group (n=17) and aerobic exercise group (n=17). The aerobic exercise group received aerobic exercise for four weeks. They were assessed with CPET, motor and sensory function, walking index for spinal cord injury II (WISCI II) and spinal cord independence measure (SCIM) before and four weeks after training. Results Oxygen uptake (VO2)peak, anaerobic threshold (AT), metabolic equivalent of energy (METpeak), VO2/heart rate (HR)peak, respiratory exchange rate (RER)peak, minute ventilation (VE)peak, work rate (WR)peak and systolic blood pressure (SBP)peak were lower in the patients than in the controls (t>2.714, P<0.05). VO2peak、AT、METpeak、VO2/HRpeak、WRpeak increased in the aerobic exercise group after training (t>2.431, P<0.05). METpeak and WRpeak improved in the conventional rehabilitation group after training (t>3.282, P<0.01). The scores of motor in ASIA and SCIM improved in both groups after training (t>2.985, P<0.05). Conclusion The cardiopulmonary function decreased in incomplete SCI patients, which could be improved by moderate intensity aerobic exercise.

OBJECTIVE CYP2 family including CYP2C and CYP2J is the predominant arachidonic acid (AA) epoxygenase, and the epoxidation of AA produces four regioisomeric cis-epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (5,6-, 8,9-, 11,12-, and 14,15-EET). Human CYP2J2 is one of the main CYP isoforms expressed in brain, but CYP2C8 was present at a low level. The aim of this study is to investigate the roles of brain CYP2J in Parkinson disease. METHODS Rats received the right-unilaterally injection with concentrated LV-CYP2J3 or LV-EGFP in the substantia nigra (SN) at 3 d before LPS or 6-OHDA treatment. The animals were tested for rotational behavior with the dopaminergic agonist apomorphine dissolved in sterile saline at 14 and 21 d after LPS injection. The influence of CYP2J-dependent derivative, 14,15-EET, on the genes related with oxidative stress was assayed in SH-SY5Y cells. RESULTS CYP2J overexpression or 14,15-EET treatment significantly increased the levels of SOD1, CAT, GPX1, NRF2 and KEAP1 in neurons. TLR4- MyD88 signaling pathway was involved the down- regulation of CYP2J by LPS. The binding of p-CREB with the promoter of CYP2J was inhibited by the LPS treatment. The loss of dopami?nergic neurons in the right SN induced by LPS or 6- OHDA was significantly decreased by CYP2J3 transfection at 21 d after LPS injection. Compared with LPS or 6-OHDA group, the number of the rotation of rats was decreased by 42.6% and 60.7% by CYP2J3 transfection at 14 d after LPS or 6-OHDA injection;meanwhile, the rotation number was decreased by 12.7% and 21.3% at 21 d. The accumulation of alpha synuclein induced by LPS was significantly decreased by CYP2J3 transfection. The mRNA levels of SOD1, CAT, GPX1, NRF2 and KEAP1 in SN were decreased by LPS, which was attenuated by the injection of LV-CYP2J3. CONCLUSION Brain CYP2J can play a protective role in the damage of the inflammation and oxidative stress to the dopaminergic neurons. Brain CYP2J- dependent derivatives from AA may have therapeutic effects in Parkinson disease via the up- regulation of the antioxidant system in neurons.
