OBJECTIVE To investigate the drug resistance of Escherichia coli in biliary tract infection and genotype of ESBLs.METHODS Antimicrobial susceptibility test was performed using Kirby-Bauer method.The genotypes of ESBLs were detected by PCR.RESULTS The detection rate of ESBLs producing bacteria was 32.4%(23 strains),and the drug-sensitivity test indicated that E.coli was sensitive to imipenem,meropenem and cefoperazone/subactam,but these ESBLs producing strains were resistant to other antimicrobial agents.ESBLs were identified as TEM type in 16 strains,SHV type in 4 strains,CTX-M type in 12 strains and OXA type in 5 strains.CONCLUSIONS ESBLs-producing E.coli in biliary tract infections show strous resistance.TEM and CTX-M are the most common ESBLs genotypes.

A total of 1342 individuals underwent physical examinations according to the criteria of metabolic syndrome of International Diabetes Federation (IDF) in 2005.And 314 patients with metabolic disorders were screened for diabetes by standard meal and methods oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT).Newly diagnosed diabetics was 12 (4.1％ ) vs.17 (5.8％) respectively.No significant difference existed between two methods (P =0.332).Kendall's (τ)b =0.313,Kendall's (τ)c =0.208 and Gamma coefficient =0.580 (P =0.000).The mixed meal method was correlated with OGTT,Kappa =0.258 (P =0.000) and two methods were consistent.Diabetic screening should be stressed in the subjects with metabolic abnormalities.And the detecting efficiency of postprandial plasma glucose is similar to OGTT.

Objective To observe the change of intestinal microflora on the process of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH),and to explore the synbiotics therapeutic effect on NASH.Methods Rats were administrated with high fat diet to establish NASH model.In the process of NASH rats modeling,the level of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL), fasting blood sugar (FBS) and fasting insulin (FINS) was dynamically tested by automatic biochemical analyzer.The change of main intestinal flora was detected by 16 S rRNA fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction.NAFLD activity score was calculated.HE staining was used to observe the hepaticpathological changes and the TLR4 expression was detected by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunohistochemical method.Until the 4th,8th,10th weekin the process of NASH modeling, 10 rats were feeded with synbiotics for 2 weeks, and all of above indicators were tested and observed.Results 1)With the extension of a high-fat diet feeding time, the degree of hepatocyte steatosis obviously increased.NAFLD score was significantly heightened(P<0.01).2)Number of independent activities of rats significantly increased, the serological level of TG, TC, LDL, FBS and FINS were lower significantly after intervention with synbiotics for 2 weeks(P<0.05).3)Synbiotics intervention for two weeks significantly increased the amount of bifidobacterium and lactobacillus and decrease the amount of enterococcus significantly(P<0.05).4)The expression of TLR4 was gradually increased in the process of NASH rats modeling(P<0.05),but decreased after 2 weeks of the synbiotics-intervention (P<0.05).Conclusions Intestinal microecology change is closely related to the development of NASH,therefor, synbiotics could improve the quality of life and biochemical indicators of NASH rats through adjusting intestinal microecology and the expression level of TLR4 protein might been involved.

Totally 1136 individuals aged over 40 underwent health check up in March to May 2009. Fasting blood glucose, 2-h post-challenge blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin A1c ( HbA1c), total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and serum uric acid were measured. The diagnosis of metabolic syndrome was based on the International Diabetes Federation Criteria. The results shows that total body fat, region body fat indices, blood pressure, blood glucose and serum uric acid levels increased with the age ( P < 0.01) . The prevalence rate of metabolic syndrome in this group of individuals were 15. 1% (171/1136) , and increased with age (P<0.01). The most common combination of metabolic syndrome was central obesity-hypertension-dyslipidemia (40. 9% , 70/171). Unconditional logistic regression revealed that waist-hip-ratio, body mass index and uric acid were the risk factors for metabolic syndrome.

A quail-origin subtype of the influenza virus was isolated from a human-infecting H7N9 subtype of the avian influenza virus found in a live poultry market and was given the name A/Quail/Hangzhou/1/ 2013 (H9N2). We analyzed the whole genome of this virus and its biologic characteristics. Sequence analyses suggested that the: HA and NS genes belonged to a CK/BJ/1/94-like lineage; NA, NP, PA and PB1 genes belonged to a SH/F/98-like lineage; M and PB2 genes belonged to a G1-like lineage. Analyses of key amino acids showed that the cleavage site in HA protein was PSRSSR ↓ GL, and that the HA protein had a human receptor-binding site with Leu226. Deletion of amino acids 69 - 73 was detected in the stalk of NA protein, the M2 protein had an Asn31 mutation, and the NS1 protein had two mutations at Ser42, Ala149. The intravenous pathogenicity of this virus was 0.36. A study in chickens suggested that all inoculated birds shed the virus from the trachea and cloaca on the third day post-infection (p. i. ) until 11 days. All chickens that had direct contact shed the virus on the second day p. i. until 8 days. Results of virus reisolation suggested that lung and tracheal tissues could shed the virus in 5 days, whereas the other organs could shed the virus in 3 days. These results suggest that this virus strain is H9N2 subtype LPAIV, whose lineage is prevalent in mainland China. This research provides evidence on how to monitor and prevent the H9N2 subtype of the avian influenza virus.

Objective To evaluate the helical CT features of miliary tuberculosis and pulmonary miliary metastatic nodules so thatimproving the correct diagnosis of the miliary lung diseases.Methods Helical CT or high resolution CT features (distribution and size of miliary nodule and attenuation of the lung) of 34 patients with miliary tuberculosis and 54 patients with pulmonary miliary metastatic nodules were retrospectively reviewed.Results The uniformly distribution and size of the bilateral lung were observed in 28 (28/34, 82%) and 23 (23/34, 68%) cases of miliary tuberculosis,5(5/54, 9%) and15(15/54, 28%)cases of pulmonary metastases ( P
