Abstract: Objective To collect the cases of laboratory-acquired infections (LAI) reported in literatures in China, summarize the infection routes and causes of LAI in China, in order to improve laboratory staff's understanding of its occupational health and safety risks. Methods　The cases of laboratory-acquired infection reported in domestic literatures were collected from PubMed, CNKI, Wanfang Database, CBM China Biomedical Literature Database up to April 11, 2022, retrospectively analyze the number and causes of LAI reports, the main risk factors of LAI and its harm to society, the consequences of LAI or the leakage of pathogenic microorganisms, and put forward the relevant countermeasures of biological safety. Results　A total of 22 LAI reports were collected, reviewed and integrated into 21 reports. There were 7 kinds of pathogenic microorganisms. The main pathogenic microorganisms were hantavirus (42.86%, n=9) and Brucella (33.33%, n=7). There were 122 cases and 3 deaths in the laboratory. Most of the reports came from research laboratories (66.67%, n=14). The main route of infection was inhalation of aerosol (42.86%, n=9), followed by transdermal route (38.09%, n=8). Conclusions Failure to report LAI events will increase the risk of pathogenic microorganisms spreading to people outside the laboratory and the environment through infected laboratory staff. Local health institutions and laboratories should be encouraged to report LAI cases as a powerful tool for monitoring accidental leakage of pathogenic microorganisms and further improving laboratory biosafety. The laboratory needs strong biosafety measures to protect staff's health and prevent environmental pollution caused by accidental leakage of pathogenic microorganisms.

Objective To investigate the efficacy observation of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)for improving the attention in patients with infarction in basal ganglia area. Methods Sixty consecutive patients with basal ganglia infarction admitted to the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine,the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from May 2015 to May 2016 were enrolled. They were randomly divided into either a control group or a test group according to the random number table (n = 30 in each group). The patients in both groups received routine rehabilitation training,and those in the test group received tDCS therapy synchronously,and the control group received the sham tDCS stimulation. The evaluations and analyses were conducted with the Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA),d2 test of attention,and event-related potential-P300 (ERP-P300),respectively in all patients before intervention and 4 weeks after intervention,and they were compared between the groups. Results There was no significant difference before intervention between the two groups (all P > 0. 05). Compared with before intervention,the ERP-P300 latencies were reduced,the amplitudes were increased after intervention in the patients of the test group and the control group (all P < 0. 05). The MoCA total scores (the test group:22. 7 ± 2. 7 vs. 15. 5 ±
2. 4;the control group:17. 2 ±2. 5 vs. 15. 6 ±2. 3),attention dimension scores (the test group:4. 6 ± 1. 2 vs. 2. 4 ± 1. 6;the control group:3. 6 ± 1. 5 vs. 2. 5 ± 1. 5),and the total completion of d2 attention test task, total scores,and concentration degree scores (the test group:295 ± 31 vs. 250 ± 45,279 ± 38 vs. 223 ± 52, 97 ± 22 vs. 75 ± 25;the control group:276 ± 33 vs. 247 ± 45,257 ± 39 vs. 211 ± 56,84 ± 23 vs. 71 ± 24) were all increased (all P < 0. 05),and all the indexes of the test group were better than those of the control group (all P < 0. 05). Conclusion tDCS contributes to the improvement of the attention in patients with infarction in the internal capsule-basal ganglia region.

Objective:To investigate whether transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs)through renal arteries can protect kidney from acute tubular necrosis(ATN),so as to lay a foundation for MSC transplantation in treatment of ATN.Methods:Five-week-old nude mice were randomly divided into three groups:normal control group(n=10),acute tubular necrosis(ATN)model group without(n=10)and with MSCs treatment group(n=11).ATN nude mice were induced with 50% glycerin.MSCs labeled with enhanced green fluorescent proteins(EGFP)were injected into kidney through renal arteries.Serum creatinine was determined in all groups and pathological changes of renal tissues were detected using H-E staining.The amount and distribution of the EGFP-marked MSCs in renal tissues were determined with fluorescence microscope.Results:Degeneration and exfoliation of renal tubular epithelial cells,and even renal tubular tamponade with cast-off cells were observed in the ATN group;these pathological changes were mainly located at renal cortex and juncture of renal cortex and medulla.The damages were greatly alleviated in the ATN+MSCs transplantation group,with no swelling of epithelial cells,nuclear condensation or edema.Fourteen days after MSCs transplantation,EGFP positive cells were increased in renal tubules of recipient mice.Conclusion:The MSCs transplantation via renal artery can locate in renal tubular epithelium,and promote the repair of injured renal tubular epithelial cells.

Objective To evaluate the blood-saving effect of tranexamic acid in pediatric patients undergoing radical correction of tetralogy of Fallot with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods A total of 56 children of both sexes,aged 11 months-14 yr,with body mass index of 9.8-21.4 kg/m2,of ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,with left ventricular ejection fraction ＞50％,scheduled for elective radical correction of tetralogy of Fallot with CPB,were randomly divided into 2 groups using a random number table:tranexamic acid group (TA group,n =30) and normal saline group (NS group,n =26).Anesthesia was induced with iv midazolam,sufentanil,vecuronium and propofol.The children were endotracheally intubated and mechanically ventilated.Anesthesia was maintained with inhalation of 1％-2％ sevoflurane and infusion of propofol,sufentanil and vecuronium.After induction of anesthesia,a loading dose of tranexamic acid l0 mg/kg was intravenously infused over 20 min before skin incision,followed by infusion at a rate of 10 mg · kg-1 · h 1 until the end of surgery in TA group,while the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in NS group.The volume of chest tube drainage at 24 h after surgery and volume of allogeneic red blood cells,fresh frozen plasma,platelet and cryoprecipitate transfused were recorded.The requirement for re-thoracotomy for bleeding,and the incidence of hepatic artery and portal vein thrombosis were also recorded.Results Compared to NS group,the volume of chest tube drainage at 24 h after surgery and volume of allogeneic red blood cells,fresh frozen plasma,platelet and cryoprecipitate transfused were significantly reduced in TA group.No re-thoracotomy was required in TA group,and the rate of re-thoracotomy was 15％ in NS group.No hepatic artery and portal vein thrombosis were detected in group TA.Conclusion Tranexamic acid (loading dose 10 mg/kg,maintenance dose 10 mg· kg-1 · h-1) can provide blood-saving effect and has high security in pediatric patients undergoing radical correction of tetralogy of Fallot with CPB.

Background Cataract phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation is a primary treatment for cataract.However,tear film stability and ocular surface structure are affected after surgery,especially some cataract patients with diabetes.Researches determined that tear film dysfunction is an important causative factor of dry eye.Objective This study was to investigate the change of tear film after phacoemulsification in cataract patient with diabetes.Methods A non-randomized cases-controlled study was designed.Thirty-six cataract patients with diabetes (54 eyes)and matched 32 patients (40 eyes)with age-related cataract were included in this study in Tianjin First Center Hospital from October,2010 to May,2011.Phacoemulsification and IOL implantation was performed on the all patients with the same topical eyedrops in both groups.Dry eye-related symptom was surveyed and scored by questionnaire,and tear film break-up time (BUT),Schirmer Ⅰ test(S Ⅰ t)and corneal fluorescein(FL) were examined 3 days before operation and 1 day,1 week,1month,3 months after operation.Written informed consent was obtained from each patient before entering this trial.Results The percentage with preoperative symptoms of dry eye was 36.2％ and postoperative dry eye symptoms accounted for 75.8％.Significant differences were seen in dry eye symptom score,FL score,BUT value and S Ⅰ t value between the diabetic cataract group and only cataract group as well as among 4 time points(dry eye symptom score:Fgroup =139.347,P =0.000 ; Ftime =342.741,P =0.000 ; FL score: Fgroup =14.073,P =0.000 ; Ftime =332.697,P =0.000 ; BUT value: Fgroup =28.198,P =0.000 ; Ftime =868.364,P =0.000 ; S Ⅰ t value: Fgroup =2.848,P =0.095 ; Ftime =564.017,P=0.000).FL scores of 2 groups were significantly higher in postoperation than those in preoperation (P＜0.05),and those of diabetic cataract group were significantly higher than only cataract group(P＜0.05),but no significant difference was found between postoperation 3 months and preoperation (P＞0.05).BUT was shorter in postoperation than that in preoperation in the diabetic cataract group(P＜0.05).S Ⅰ t values in postoperative 1 day and 1 week were significantly lower than in preoperation in both groups(P＜0.05).However,S Ⅰ t values returned to normal from 1 month through 3 months in both groups(P＞0.05).Conclusions Tear film dysfunction occurs after operationin cataract patient with type 2 diabetes.It is thought that cataract patient with diabetes is susceptible population of dry eye.Dry eye appears more early and severer in diabetes patients after phacoemulsification combined with IOL implantation.

Objective To systematically review the short-term and long-term efficacy of eversion carotid endarterectomy (eCEA) and patch carotid endarterectomy (pCEA) for the treatment of carotid artery stenosis.Methods The published literature on eCEA and pCEA control studies in medline,PubMed,Ovid,CNKI and CBM (1970.5-2016.10) databases were retrieved by computers.Two reviewers selected literature and extracted data independently according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.Cochrane Collaboration Network Special Software Rev Man 5.2 was used to analyze the meta-analysis of short-term and long-term outcome measures.Results A total of 1 137 articles were retrieved.Ten studies were included and analyzed (3 of them were randomized controlled trial).A total of 3 213 patients were enrolled,including surgical intervention 3 299 case/time (1 512 in the eCEA group and 1 787 in the pCEA group).The results of meta-analysis showed that:(1) the mean operative time in the pCEA group was shorter 22±8 min than that in the pCEA group.The intraoperative utilization ratio of shunt tube,eCEA was significantly lower than pCEA,they were 12.6 %(53/421) and 50.2% (357/711) respectively (OR,0.11,95%CI 0.08-0.15,P<0.01).The postoperative incidence of stroke within 30 d (OR,0.42,95%CI 0.23-0.76,P=0.004) and the incidence of stroke after 30 d in eCEA were lower than those in pCEA (OR,0.26,95%CI 0.09-0.78,P=0.02).There was significant difference.(2) eCEA reduced the incidence of restenosis at day 30 after procedure (OR,0.57,95%CI 0.38-0.86,P=0.008).Conclusion Compared with pCEA,eCEA has the advantages of reducing the operation time and lowering the utilization rate of shunt tube.At the same time,eCEA can reduce the occurrence of stroke within 30 d and 30 d after procedure,and significantly reduce the incidence of restenosis.
