Objective To analyze the causes of peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) relat-ed infections, study the types of pathogens and their drug sensitivities in order to supply evidence for clini-cal medication. Methods 110 cancer patients were analyzed for PICC related infections and blood sam-pies underwent bacterial culture. Results Of 110 cases of cancer patients, catheter-related infections were found in 11 patients (10.00%), including 9 cases of local infection (8.18%), and 2 cases of hemato-ge-nous infection (1.82%). Catheter-related infections were not associated with gender, age, types of catheter, venous selection, and the inserted length of intravenous catheter. Catheter- related infections were likely to be associated with the indwelling time of catheters. Conclusions To avoid the infections related to long-term PICC, strict aseptic operation and standardized maintaining procedures are required.

Objective To evaluate different tigecycline susceptibility testing methods for A.baumannii.Methods Thirty carbapenem resistant A.baumannii (CRAB) and 30 carbapenem sensitive A.baumannii (CSAB) isolates were randomly collected from 30 hospitals during January to December in 2010 in China retrospectively.MIC and inhibitory zone diameters for tigecyclinc were determined by the susceptibility testing methods such as broth microdilution (BMD),agar dilution,E test,MIC Test Strip (MTS),Vitek2.Data were analyzed by comparing the results from each method to those produced by the reference BMD method.The effects of two different susceptibility test media (M-H and ISO-Sensitest Agar) on the MIC of tigecycline were also analyzed.Results For CSAB isolates,the MIC50/MIC90 of BMD,agar dilution,E test,MTS and Vitek2 were as follows:0.125/0.25 mg/L,0.125/0.25 mg/L,0.5/1 mg/L,0.125/0.25 mg/L and 0.5/0.5 mg/L.Compared with BMD method,the categorical agreement rates (CA) of each method were ≥90%,and produced no very major errors (VME) by Food and Drug Administration (FDA)/ European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) breakpoints.For CRAB isolates,the MIC50/MIC90 of BMD,agar dilution,E test,MTS and Vitek2 were as follows:2/4 mg/L,4/4 mg/L,4/4 mg/L,1/2 mg/L and 2/4 mg/L.Compared with BMD method,MTS produced 3.3% (1/30)/6.7% (2/30) VME(FDA/EUCAST breakpoints),and no method CA was ≥90%.The CA between disk diffusion and BMD results were higher by using the criteria of Jones than FDA breakpoints,but only 66.7% (20/30) were observed in CRAB isolates,and produced no VME.The MIC of tigecycline determined using M-H agar were usually higher than those using ISO-sensitest Agar.Conclusions Agar dilution,E test,Vitek 2 and disk diffusion appear not to be a suitable method for routine susceptibility testing of tigecycline for CRAB strains.Tigecycline intermediate or resistant results determined by these methods require confirmation by BMD,and MTS results also need to be interpreted with caution.

Background Studies showed that 577 nm subliminal micropulse photocoagulation for retinal diseases is more effective and much safer than 577 nm laser,but its mechanism and sensitive target cells are still unelucidated.Objective This study was to compare the histomorphology changes of rabbit retinas following 577 nm subliminal micropulse excitation and 577 nm laser for retinal photocoagulation and offer a conference for the clinical application of 577 nm subliminal micropulse excitation.Methods Twenty-six Chinese pigment rabbits were randomly divided into normal control group (2 rabbits),577 nm laser photocoagulation group (6 rabbits) and subliminal micropulse photocoagulation group (18 rabbits),in which the rabbits from subliminal micropulse photocoagulation group were subgrouped into 9%,12% and 15% subthreshold photocoagulation groups according to the different workload rates,and retinal photocoagulation was performed based on grouping.No treatment was carried out in the normal control group.Fundus camera and OCT were obtained after photocoagulation,and the rabbits were sacrificed to prepare the specimen of eyeball wall.Hematoxylin and eosin staining was employed to examine the histopathological change of choroid and retina under the light microscope.Results The retinal morphology was normal on the fundus color photography and OCT in the normal control group.Obscure of retinal structure and slight edema of retinal neuroepithelial layer with obscure of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) was found respectively in the 9% and 12% subthreshold photocoagulation group,and serious edema of retinal neuroepithelial layer with local RPE elevation was visible in the 15% subthreshold photocoagulation group.The laser spot was invisible in various subliminal micro pulse groups.However,retinal photocoagulation spots,multifocal elevation of retinal layer and serious detachment of retinal neuroepithelium were found in the 577 nm laser group.Retinal histopathological examination revealed that the photoreceptors,bipolar cells and retinal ganglion cell (RGC) layers were normal,while choroidal vessel deformation and bleeding were visible in the 9% and 12% subthreshold photocoagulation groups,and only photoreceptor membrane swelling was seen in the 15% subthreshold photocoagulation group.However,retinal structure abnormality was displayed in 577 nm laser group,including the structural disorders of inner and outer nuclear layers and RGC layer as well as thinning of RPE layer.Conclusions 577 nm nicropulse laser under threshold is sensitive for RPE and choroid rather than retina neurepithelium,which can play a treating role and also does not damage retina seriously.However,577 nm laser photocoagulation results in retinal structure damage.

AlM: To observe the influence on the incidence of diffuse lamellar keratitis ( DLK ) after laser in situ keratomileusis ( LASlK ) whether or not wearing sterile gloves with talc during operation, and to confirm the role of residual talc in the occurrence of DLK.
METHODS: Totally 563 patients ( 1 126 eyes ) accepted operation with the method of surgical hand antisepsis only were set as the experimental group, while 592 patients ( 1 184 eyes ) with the method of surgical hand antisepsis and sterile gloves as the control group. Each patient was rechecked to observe the occurrence of DLK on the first day and the seventh day after the operation. Then the data of DLK were statistically analyzed byχ2 test and rank sum test.
RESULTS:On the first postoperative day, the incidence of DLK was 7. 4% (83 eyes) in experimental group and 12. 2% (144 eyes) in control group. ln the former group, stage Ⅰ of DLK accounted for 4. 6% (52 eyes) and stageⅡ for 2. 8% (31 eyes);while in the latter, stage l did for 7. 7% (91 eyes) and stageⅡfor 4. 5% (53 eyes). On the seventh day, all DLK were cured. The other 2 cases ( 3 eyes) occurred in stage Ⅳ DLK ( the first time recheck was on the eighth day after operation and fluorometholone ophthalmic solution was not used on time ) . The incidence and the severity were both significant lower in the experimental group than in the control (both P<0. 01).
CONCLUSlON: Talc is one of the most important factors resulting in DLK after LASlK. The method of surgical hand antisepsis without wearing gloves could avoid the stimulation of talc and reduce the incidence of DLK obviously.
