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 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

AIM: To establish chromatographic fingerprint of Panax gingseng C.A.Mey.by HPLC. METHODS: Separation was performed on an Agilent ZORBAX SB-C_(18)(4.6 mm?250 mm,5 ?m) analytical column with mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and water with gradient elution with the flow rate 1.0 mL/min and the column temperature at 40 ℃.The UV wavelength used for detection was set at 203 nm and the analysis time was 90 min. RESULTS: 18 co-peaks on the HPLC fingerprints of Panax ginerseng C.A.Mey.were indicated.The similarities were determined by cosine.The results of similarity analysis were 0.90～1.00. CONCLUSION: Perfect fingerprints were obtained which can be used for the quality control of Panax gingseng C.A.Mey.

Objective To explore the behavior characteristics in children with benign epilepsy combined with centro-temporal spikes(BECTS).Methods Eighty-two children with BECTS aged 2.5-3.0(2.65?2.31)years old,51 male,31 female,who were free of mental retardation assessed with Gesell developmental schedules,untreated with antiepileptic drugs,and were investigated 15 days after the latest seizure.Eighty-two healthy children with sex and age matched to the cases,53 male,29 female,aged 2.5-3.0(2.6?0.4)years old.The behavior characteristics of infants in BECTS group and control group were assessed with CBCL,including 6 behavior factors which were sleep problem,social flinches,depression,physical aspect,attacking,act of sabotage and the infants-middle school student social ability scale.Results The total scores of behavior characteristics and the scores of depression,sleep problem,attacking and act of sabotage in BECTS group were all higher than those in control group,the differences were statistically significant.However,scores of social flinches,and physical aspect in BECTS group had no significant differences compared with those of control group.There were no significant difference of social adaptive component between the BECTS and control group.Conclusions Children with BECTS have behavior disorders to some extent,but their social adaptive capacity are the same as normal children.

In order to compare the difference of cyp2e1 gene expression between patients with hepatic cirrhosis and obstructive jaundice,and to investigate the pharmacologic significance behind this difference,liver samples were obtained from patients undergoing hepatic surgery with hepatic cirrhosis( n =7),obstructive jaundice( n =6) and normal tissue of hepatic angioma (controls, n =6). Total hepatic RNA were extracted using the one step method, cyp2e1 cDNA probe prepared by primer randomly marked method, and difference of cyp2e1 expression was compared among patients by Northern blotting.Compared with control group, the expressions of cyp2e1 in liver tissue among patients with obstructive jaundice were evidently reduced, while expression of this gene in cirrhosis liver was unaltered. CYP2E1 isoenzyme encoded by cyp2e1 decreased among patients with obstructive jaundice as expression of cyp2e1 gene significantly reduced, liver ability for metabolism of inhalant anesthetics declined consequently, under some special conditions, hepato nephric toxicity of anesthetics might be aggravated.

Objective To explore the acute toxicity and LD 50 of Tripterygium Hypoglaucum (Levl) Hutch(THH) solution to provide information for safe clinical application. Methods After oral administration of THH solution in mice, the mortality and the physiological and pathological changes were observed. Results The LD 50 (95% confidence limit) of THH in male and female mice was 79 g/kg(69～89 g/kg) and 100 g/kg (90～112 g/kg), respectively. No marked pathological change of the organs was found. Conclusion According to the standard of grading of acute toxicity, THH solution belongs to the moderate class. Therefore, it is safe in clinical practice and has a wide application.
