2.Resistance analysis of pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from clinical specimens in anhui province from 2011 to 2013
Acta Universitatis Medicinalis Anhui 2015;(4):540-542
To investigate the changes of drug resistance of pseudomonas aeruginosa ( PA) to common antimicrobial agents in recent 3 years in Anhui province. The average drug resistance rate was 15. 3%, 17. 0% for piperacillin/tazobactam, amikacin respectively, while the average resistance rate was higher for the third generation cephalospo-rin cefotaxime, ceftriaxone and ceftizoxime, which was between 42. 0% and 55. 0%. The average drug resistance rate was 25. 2% for imipenem. The resistance rates for ceftazidime, cefepime, ceftriaxone and ceftizoxime were sig-nificantly increased( P<0. 05 ) . The resistance of PA to the third generation cephalosporin and ciprofloxacin in-creased gradually, close attention should be paid to it in clinical practice.

Journal of Peking University(Health Sciences) 2004;0(03):-
Objective:To explore the therapeutic effect,security and influencing factors of methylphenidate titration program,try to find the potential predicting index of therapeutic effect.Methods:This study was openly designed.The patients who were fit for DSM-Ⅳ diagnosis criteria of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD) underwent systematic methylphenidate titration treatment until they attained the most optimal dose with best therapeutic effect and minimal side effects.The primary evaluative index of therapeutic effect was ADHD rating scale filled by teachers(ADHD-RS-Ⅳ),and secondary index included abbreviated Conners questionnaire filled by teachers,ADHD rating scale and Conners questionnaire filled by parents.The matching sample t analyses were used,then the differences of rating scale between pre and post treatment were compared.The potential influencing factors information of therapeutic effects including symptom severity degree when visiting,IQ,sensory integration capability and achievement of school etc.were collected.Finally,the correlation analysis was used for continuous variables andvariance analysis for dichotomization variables to analyze and check the factors' influence of declining scores of behavior scale.Results:The final prescribed daily dose for patients who completed dose titration was(17.3?7.7) mg on average,computed by kilo bodyweight was(0.45?0.11) mg/(kg?d).All the scale scores between pre and post treatment were significantly different(the pre-treatment score of ADHD rating scale completed by teachers was 30.25?9.16,and post-treatment score were 19.87?10.03,P

Chinese Journal of Nosocomiology 2006;0(12):-
OBJECTIVE To investigate the trend of resistance to antimicrobial agents among clinical isolates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae in 2006-2007.METHODS Agar diffusion test was used to analyze the changes in drug susceptibility of E.coli and K.pneumoniae from 30 hospitals in Anhui in 2006-2007.The resistant rate,intermediate rate and susceptibility rate of drugs were calculated according to the criteria in guidelines of CLSI(2007).RESULTS Carbapenems were the most active antimicrobial agents tested against E.coli and K.pneumoniae.Cefepime,ceftazidime,piperacillin/tazobactam and amikacin showed excellent activity against E.coli and K.pneumoniae.E.coli and K.pneumoniae were still resistant to cefuroxime,ceftriaxone,cefotaxime and aztreonam.ESBLs-producing E.coli strains accounted for 48.9% in the year of 2006 and for 47.2% in the year of 2007.ESBLs-producing K.pneumoniae strains accounted for 36.6% in the year of 2006 and for 40.0% in the year of 2007.CONCLUSIONS Imipenem remains highly active against E.coli and K.pneumoniae.

Acta Medicinae Universitatis Scientiae et Technologiae Huazhong 2015;(5):578-581
Objective To explore the clinical application of endometrial scratching in patients with repeated implantation failure(RIF).Methods A total of 189 women with RIF who planned to undergo in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer(IVF‐ET)once again at the Reproductive Medicine Center of Tongji Hospital ,Huazhong University of Science and Technology ,be‐tween October 2013 and August 2014 ,were prospectively examined.These women were infertile due to tubal factors ,with their male partners having normal semen measurements.According to the case numbers ,the 189 patients were randomly divided into experimental group(n=96)and control group(n=93).In the experimental group ,endometrial scratching was conducted within 6 h of one menstrual cycle one month before oocyte retrieval ,while in control group ,no endometrial scratching was performed at that time.The outcomes of pregnancy were compared between the two groups after embryo transplantation.Results There was no statistical difference between the two groups in the patient age ,infertility duration ,body mass index(BMI) ,basal levels of follicle‐stimulating hormone(FSH) ,luteinizing hormone(LH) ,and progesterone(P) ,gonadotropin‐releasing hormone(Gn‐RH) injection days and doses ,the number of retrieved oocytes ,the number of transferred embryos ,the endometrial thickness and lev‐els of estradiol(E2 )and P on the day of HCG injection(P>0.05).The embryo implantation rate ,the clinical pregnancy rate and the ongoing pregnancy rate in the experimental group were much higher than those in the control group ,with statistically signif‐icant difference noted(P<0.01).Conclusion The endometrial scratching can improve the endometrial receptivity and enhance the clinical pregnancy rate of RIF patients.

Objective To compare the effects of point contact-dynamic compression plates (PC-DCP) and dynamic compression plates (DCP) on bone structure and mechanical properties of the plated bone in the intact goat tibia model. Methods Ten matured goats were used. The bilateral intact tibia of goats were fixed with DCP and PC-DCP respectively. The goats were sacrificed at 12 and 24 weeks after operation, and the tibiae were harvested. The structure of bone under plate was studied both by CT scan and histomorphology. The mechanical properties of the plated bone were examined by torsional test. Results At 12 weeks after internal fixation, there was obvious osteoporosis in the cortical bone underneath the plate in the DCP group compared with that of the PC-DCP group. Both of the cortical bone thickness underneath the plate and the torsion strength of the plated tibiae were significantly higher in the PC-DCP group than that in DCP group (P0.05). Conclusion The underlying bone resorption after rigid plate fixation is induced by both the disturbance of the bone blood supply and stress shielding. However, the former is the main cause in the early stage of fixation. PC-DCP is able to prevent bone resorption in the early stage of fixation.

Objective:To study the torsional property and rotary fatigue fracture of Smart K files and R reamers made of nickel-titanium alloy. Methods:The torsional property and rotary fatigue fracture behavior of Smart K files and R reamers were evaluated by means of specially-designed torsional device and simulated endodontic root canals system. The instrument surface and the rotary fatigue fractured surface were investigated by optical microscope and scanning electron microscope. Results:Compared with ANSI/ADA specification No.28, maximum torque values of Smart K and R endodontic instrument were higher. Tensile stresses on the outer surface of the endodontic instruments played a dominant role in fracture initiation during rotary fatigue fracture. The rotary numbers corresponding to rotary fatigue fracture decreased with the increase of the instrument size and curvature. Smart K and R endodontic instruments exhibited good ductility. Dimples were found on the fractured surface, and the fatigue fracture was the typical ductile fracture. Conclusion:Smartendodontic instruments have excellent torsional and rotary fatigue fracture resistance properties.
