The incidence of nosocomial infections in the neonatal intensive care unit(NICU) is high. Nosocomial infections is one of the most common causes of neonatal death in critically ill neonates. Strategies for the prevention nosocomial infections include hand hygiene practices,prevention of central venous catheter-related infection and ventilator-associated pneumonias, antifungal prophylaxis, skin care, early enteral feeding and probioties. Effective prevention and control nosocomial infections in NICU may decrease neonatal mortality,hospitaliztion stay and hospital costs.This review focuses on the latest preventive strategies for nosocomial infections in NICU.

Objective: To study the different inhibitory effects of capsule-depleted and wild type Cryptococcus neoformans (C. neoformans) on human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC), so as to clarify the role of C. neoformans capsule. Methods: The infection process of HUVEC by C. neoformans and the cellular morphologic changes of HUVEC were observed by transmission eletron microscope (TEM). The cell inhibition rates were detected with CCK-8 kit at different phases. Results: TEM observation revealed different degrees of cell damages after co-cultured with the above 2 strains of C. neoformans, with the loose endoplasmic reticulum, swollen mitochondria, nuclei damage, and disarranged cell structure. The result of CCK-8 showed that there was no significant difference in the inhibition rates of HUVEC between the 2 groups 30 min after co-culture (P>O. 05). 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, and 4 h after co-culture, the inhibition rate in capsule-depleted group was higher than that of the wild strain group(PO. 05). Conclusion: Capsule-depleted C. neoformans causes more significant endothelial cell injury than wild strain C. neoformans does, indicating that the capsule play an important role in C. neoformans-induced damage of endothelial cells.

Objective To investigate the correlation between drug resistance and β-actamase genes of multi-drug resistance Acinetobacter baumannii (MDR-AB) in neonatal intensive care unit to provide evidence for rational antibiotics administration and nosocomial infection control.Methods Twenty-six MDR-AB strains were separated and collected from clinical specimens.The minimum inhibitory concentrations of 13 antimicrobial agents were determined by agar dilution method.Genotypes of β-lactamase were detected by polymerase chain reaction.Results The resistant rates of the 26 strains to Ceftazidime,Cefoxitin,Piperacillin-tazobactam and Ciprofloxacin were 100.0%.About 80.8% to 96.2% of these strains were resistant to the other antimicrobial drugs.Among the 26 MDR-AB strains,100% (26/26) strains possessed oxa-51,77% (20/26) possessed oxa-23 gene,54% (14/26) carried arnpC gene,both oxa-23 and ampC were identified in 42% (11/26) strains,while oxa-24,oxa-58,imp-1,imp-4 and vim-2 gene were not identified.Conclusions The drug resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii is serious,oxa-23 and ampC are the major plactamase genes carried by MDR-AB in neonatal intensive care unit.

Objective To explore the changes of S - 100? protein in cerebrospinal fluid and serum of children with viral encephalitis and its clinical significance. Methods The levels of S - 100? protein of cerebrospinal fluid and serum of 36 children with viral encephalitis and 20 lumbar anesthesia children without central nervous system diseases were measured by enzyme - linked immunosor bent assay. Differences in the levels of cerebrospinal fluid and serum S-100? protein between children with and without coma, with and without convulsion, with and without sequelae in the case group were compared. Results S-100? protein levels of cerebrospinal fluid in the case group and control group were (0.641?0.390) and (0.037 ? 0.014) ?g/L( P

Objective To systemically review the effect of ulinastatin on lung function in pediatric patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass.Methods PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Controlled Trials Reg-istry,China National Knowledge infrastructure,China Biology Medicine disc,VIP and Wanfang databases were searched from their inception to October 2015.Articles regarding the use of ulinastatin on lung function in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass were searched.Studies were screened by two independent re-viewers and then the data were extracted.The methodological quality was evaluated according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.Meta-analysis was then performed using RevMan 5.1 software. Results Nineteen eligible studies (n = 657 patients)were identified.The results of meta analysis showed that ulinastatin could improve the oxygen partial pressure(SMD=0.90,95%CI 0.52-1.28,P <0.01)and oxygenation index (SMD=1.01,95%CI 0.45-1.56,P <0.01),decrease the PA-a O2 (SMD= -0.87, 95%CI -1.70--0.03,P =0.04),reduce the respiratory index (SMD=-0.81,95%CI -1.51--0.11, P =0.02),Lower the airway peak pressure (SMD=-0.83,95%CI -1.18--0.48,P <0.01),improve the dynamic compliance (Cd)(SMD=1.10,95%CI 0.57-1.62,P <0.01),and shorten the breathing ma-chine ventilation time (SMD=-0.98,95%CI -1.59--0.36,P <0.01).Conclusion This meta-analysis showed that ulinastatin treatment had a certain degree of protective effects on lung function in pediatric pa-tients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB,but further research was needed for all these studies which were not multicenter,strictly controlled.

Animal operation training is an important course that medical students need to study before they get into their clinical practice.Because there is no cavity mirror operation training standard and teaching experience for interns,we have put forward and conducted the animal laparoscopic teaching applications in surgery teaching,and evaluated the teaching effect.Through training,the clinical medical students have personally experienced and learnt basic operation skills of laparoscopic surgery,which is an organic link from textbooks to clinical practice,and at the same time they have improved the ability of clinical practice,cultivate and strengthen their interest in laparoscopic surgical skills training and operation,which help them lay a good foundation for clinical practice.

Results:The difference in the professional back-ground among the supervision persons and the training were significant in different areas. Conclusion: By strengthening training and textbook construction, the ability of basic food and drug supervision personnel can be enhanced and the supervision and regulation level can be improved as well.

Cellular fibronectin (cFn) is a type of bioactive non-collagen glycoprotein regarded as the main substance used to maintain periodontal attachment. The content of cFn in some specific sites can reflect the progress of periodontitis or peri-implantitis. This study aims to evaluate the expression of cFn messenger RNA (mRNA) in tissues of adult periodontitis and peri-implantitis by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and to determine its clinical significance. A total of 30 patients were divided into three groups of 10: healthy, adult periodontitis and peri-implantitis. Periodontal tissue biopsies (1 mm×1 mm×1 mm) from each patient were frozen in liquid nitrogen. Total RNA was extracted from these tissues, and the content, purity and integrity were detected. Specific primers were designed according to the sequence, and the mRNA expression levels of cellular fibronectin were detected by real-time PCR. The purity and integrity of the extracted total RNA were both high, and the specificity of amplified genes was very high with no other pollution. The mRNA expression of cFn in the adult periodontitis group (1.526±0.441) was lower than that in the healthy group (3.253±0.736). However, the mRNA expression of cFn in the peri-implantitis group (3.965±0.537) was significantly higher than that in the healthy group. The difference revealed that although both processes were destructive inflammatory reactions in the periodontium, the pathomechanisms were different and the variation started from the transcription level of the cFn gene.
