Objective To explore the effects of Yishen-Jianpi decoction on bone mineral density (BMD) and serum sclerostin level in chronic atrophic gastritis in rats. Methods Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group, model group, Weimeisu group, low-, medium-and high-dose Yishen-Jianpi Decoction groups. Chronic atrophic gastritis was induced via depriving of water by replacement with 0.1%ammonia water for 180 days. After modeling, the rats in the Yishen-Jianpi decoction groups of low-, medium-and high-dose received intragastric administration of Yishen-Jianpi decoction of 7.5, 15, 30 g/(kg?d), respectively;the Weimeisu group received intragastric administration of Weimeisu suspension 0.28 g/(kg?d);the normal control group and the model group received intragastric administration of equivalent volume of normal saline. After 90 d continuous administration the specimens were drawn. The femur BMD and BMC were detected with dual energy X-ray absorptiometry. The serum sclerostin level was measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The serum levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and human calcitonin (CT) were detected with radioimmunoassay. Results Compared with the normal control group (n=10), the femur BMD (0.168 ± 0.007 g/cm2 vs. 0.235 ± 0.029 g/cm2), BMC (0.383 ± 0.022 g vs. 0.637 ± 0.085 g), and the serum CT level (26.76 ± 11.54 pg/m vs. 33.85 ± 13.12 pg/ml) in the model group (n=9) were significantly decreased (all P<0.05), while the serum level of sclerostin (105.78 ± 34.43 pg/ml vs. 71.51 ± 23.21 pg/ml) and PTH (11.52 ± 4.34 ng/dl vs. 8.46 ± 2.39 ng/dl) were significantly increased (all P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the femur BMD (0.197 ± 0.011 g/cm2, 0.201 ± 0.017 g/cm2, 0.206 ± 0.021 g/cm2 vs. 0.168 ± 0.007 g/cm2), BMC (0.538 ± 0.036 g, 0.546 ± 0.039 g, 0.569 ± 0.048 g vs. 0.383 ± 0.022 g), serum CT level (30.42 ± 12.61 pg/ml, 31.35 ± 12.75 pg/ml, 30.83 ± 13.10 pg/ml vs. 26.76 ± 11.54 pg/ml) in the Yishen-Jianpi decoction groups of low-(n=10), medium-(n=10) and high-dose (n=9) were significantly increased (all P<0.05), while serum levels of sclerostin (86.32 ± 24.28 pg/ml, 87.65 ± 24.75 pg/ml, 86.82 ± 25.56 pg/ml vs. 105.78 ± 34.43 pg/ml) and PTH (9.36 ± 2.76 ng/dl, 9.76 ± 2.85 ng/dl, 9.84 ± 2.97 ng/dl vs. 11.52 ± 4.34 ng/dl) were significantly decreased (all P<0.05). Conclusions Yishen-Jianpi decoction can reduce serum sclerostin level, and has protective effects against osteoporosis in chronic atrophic gastritis in rats.

Objective To investigate the mechanism and epidemiological characteristics of carbap-enem-resistant Proteus mirabilis ( PM) strains deficient in swarming motility. Methods PM strains were isolated from Hangzhou General Hospital of CAPF ( Chinese People′s Armed Police Forces) during January 2013 to December 2014. Bacterial motility and flagella of the PM strains were observed through semi-solid agar culture and flagella staining. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis ( PFGE) was performed for homology anal-ysis. Antimicrobial susceptibility test and phenotypic confirmatory test were also carried out. PCR analysis and DNA sequencing were performed to confirm the genotype of resistant genes. Plasmid electroporation and S1-PFGE in combination with Southern blot hybridization were used to determine the location of the carbap-enem-resistant genes. Genetic structure of the blaKPC-2 gene was obtained by PCR mapping. Results A total of 42 PM isolates deficient in swarming motility were screened out and the resistance rates to imipenem and meropenem were 57. 1% and 52. 4%, respectively. PCR analysis and DNA sequencing confirmed that 24 carbapenem-resistant PM isolates deficient in swarming motility carried blaKPC-2 gene and belonged to three clones as indicated by the results of PFGE. Southern blot hybridization indicated that the blaKPC-2 gene was located on plasmids varying in size (26 kb, 55 kb and 139 kb). In addition, some of the strains harbored several resistant genes, such as blaTEM-1 , blaCTX-M-65 and rmtB. The genetic structures of strains carrying blaKPC-2 gene were ISKpn8, blaKPC-2 and ISKpn6-like from upstream to downstream. Conclusion Compared with the PM strains with swarming motility, the carbapenem-resistance rate was significantly higher in these PM strains deficient in swarming motility. Carbapenemases KPC-2 played an important role in the carbapen-em-resistant PM strains deficient in swarming motility. There was a cloning spread trend for carbapenem-re-sistant PM strains in our hospital. Clinicians should pay more attention to the risk of spreading.

Data were presented as absolute numbers and proportions.
RESULTSFrom 2011 to 2013, the number of pregnant women participating in HIV, syphilis, and hepatitis B testing in Dehong prefecture increased and the HIV testing rates were 99.2% (18 694/18 854), 99.9% (22 047/22 060) and 99.9% (21 751/21 756), the syphilis testing rates were 56.0% (10 550/18 854), 99.6% (21 980/22 060) and 99.9% (21 751/21 756), and the hepatitis B testing rates were 60.2% (11 358/18 854), 99.6% (21 974/22 060) and 99.9% (21 751/21 756). From 2011 to 2013, the HIV positive rates were 0.87% (327/37 787),0.82% (319/38 817) and 0.85% (315/37 261), the syphilis positive rates were 0.05% (10/18 520),0.12% (43/36 817) and 0.11% (40/35 888), the hepatitis B positive rates were 2.46% (456/18 520), 2.23% (794/35 547) and 2.14% (739/34 468), respectively. The rates of HIV-positive pregnant women giving birth in hospitals were 99.2% (128/129), 100.0% (141/141) and 100.0% (141/141). From 2011 to 2013, the proportions of HIV-positive pregnant women receiving antiretroviral therapy were 99.2% (128/129), 99.3% (140/141) and 99.3% (140/141), respectively. And the treatment rate of syphilis-positive pregnant women were 71% (5/7), 89% (16/18) and 97% (32/33). The rates of hepatitis B immunoglobulin injection among new-borns of hepatitis B-positive pregnant women were 92.9% (263/283), 99.7% (612/614) and 99.4% (629/633). The estimated rates of mother-to-child transmission of HIV were 2.28%, 2.30% and 3.00%, respectively.
CONCLUSIONThere was an increasing trend of HIV, syphilis, and hepatitis B testing rate and the positive rate kept at a low level. The proportions of HIV-positive pregnant women receiving HIV, syphilis, and hepatitis B PMTCT services increased annually, while the proportion of HIV MTCT kept at an overall low level from 2011 to 2013, which indicated its effectiveness of HIV PMTCT work during recent years in Dehong prefecture,Yunnan province, China.

OBJECTIVETo conduct health economic evaluation of the prevention of mother-to-child HIV among pregnant women in Dehong prefecture, Yunnan province, China from 2004 to 2013.
METHODSData on cost were collected mainly from the annual prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) reporting system of Dehong prefecture, and supplemented by HIV PMTCT-related resource allocation data from local health bureau. Effectiveness indexes were from local continuous HIV surveillance system and annual reported data. Cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analysis were used to conduct the health economic evaluation.
RESULTSFrom 2004 to 2013, 283980 pregnant women were screened for HIV, 2 059 were detected as positive, and the HIV positive rate was 0.73%. The total cost of the PMTCT program was 14 227 000 RMB after discounting, and the unit cost of positive case finding was 4 200 RMB. A total of 26 cases of adults and 325 infants were avoided HIV infection, and the cost-effectiveness ratio (CER) was 40 500 RMB/case. The total obtained quality adjusted life years (QALY) from the program was 8 911.5, each one of which cost 1 600 RMB/QALY. If the feeding pattern were breast feeding, CER would be 42 800 RMB/case and each one of QALY would cost 2 200 RMB.
CONCLUSIONBased on the cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analysis, the HIV PMTCT of Dehong prefecture had economic value, which indicates that continued investment is needed to strengthen local HIV PMTCT work.
