OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of delayed entry(0-24 h) into BacT/Alert 3D and BACTEC 9120 and the effect of 2 incubation temperatures(22 ℃ vs 35 ℃) on culture positivity.METHODS We utilized the BacT/Alert system with FA bottles and the BACTEC 9120 system with Plus(Aerobic) bottles.Four clinical bacterial species,Staphylococcus aureus,Escherichia coli,Streptococus pneumoniae,Candida albicans,were used as the test strains.and 5 ml of blood were added to each bottle.Each species was inoculated into the bottles 3 times at an inoculum size of 10 CFU/ml,102 CFU/ml and 108 CFU/ml,respectively.The inoculated bottles were cultured using the respective instruments after they were allowed to stand at room temperature(22 ℃)and 35 ℃ for 0,8,16 and 24 h.Time-to-detection and culture positivity were evaluated.RESULTS The delay in transportation of blood culture bottles stored at room temperature(22 ℃) or 35 ℃ had no effect on the recovery rate for BACTEC 3D at less than 24 h preincubation time and for BacT/Alert 9120 at less than 16h preincubation time.The positivity rate decreased significantly for BacT/Alert 9120 for 24 h of delay.Culture positivity of BacT/Alert 3D was higher than BACTEC 9120 for 24 h of delay.CONCLUSIONS The delayed entry for BacT/Alert 3D should be within 24 h,but the delayed entry for BACTEC 9120 should be within 16 h.

Objective:To explore the effect of radiotherapy on the FHIT protein expression and cell apoptosis of cervical squamous carcinoma and discuss the relationship between FHIT protein expression and cell apoptosis. Methods:Expression of FHIT protein was measured by immunohistochemical method and cell apoptosis was detected by TdT-mediated dUTP terminal nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining in 50 cases of squamous cell cervical carcinoma at ⅡB-ⅢB stages before, during (Dt 10 Gy and Dt 30 Gy), and after radiotherapy. Results:Of the 50 patients, the positive rates of the expression of FHIT protein was 56% at Dt 10 Gy, 68% at Dt 30 Gy, and 84% after radiotherapy, which were significantly increased compared with that before radiotherapy (36%, P<0.05). The positive rates of cell apoptosis was 52% at Dt 10 Gy, 64% at Dt 30 Gy and 78% after radiotherapy, which were significantly elevated compared with that before radiotherapy (28%, P<0.05). In the process of radiotherapy, cell apoptosis was positively related to the expression of FHIT protein (P<0.05). Conclusion:Radiotherapy reinforces the expression of FHIT protein and induces apoptosis cocurrently. FHIT protein has regulatory effects in cell apoptosis induced by radiotherapy.

Objective To observe the morphology changes in articular cartilage of knee osteoarthritis ( KOA) model rats after intervention with Shudi Jisheng Zhuanggu Decoction (SJZD). Methods SD rats were randomized into 7 groups, namely blank control group, model group, Paracetamol group ( 0.270 g/kg) , Zhuangu Guanjie Pills group ( 1.08 g/kg) , and high-, middle- and low-dosage SJZD groups ( 27.450, 13.725, 6.863 g/kg, respectively). Rats were injected with papain solution into the right knee joint to build models of KOA before administration of drugs. Thickness of right knee joint was measured to evaluate the effect of SJZD on the swelling degree of knee joint. Histological changes of knee cartilage were evaluated by Mankin scoring method after the cartilage sections being stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE). Results Swelling degree of knee joint and Mankin scores were significantly increased in the model group compared to the blank control group ( P<0.01). In comparison with the model group, the swelling degree of knee joint and Mankin scores of SJZD groups were significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the pathological changes were relieved. Conclusion SJZD can ameliorate the pathological changes of knee articular cartilage in rats with KOA, so as to delay cartilage degeneration and protect the cartilage.

Objective To investigate the expression fragile histidinetriad (FHIT) protein in cervical carcinoma and its relationship with clinicopathological feature of the disease. Methods Immunohistochemistry SP was used to detect the expression of FHIT protein in 20 cases with chronic cervsis and 95 cases with Ⅰ aⅢ b stage cervical carcinoma before and after treatment. The association of the expression of FHIT with clinicopathological feature was analyzed by the statistical method. Results There were significant differences between FHIT expression and histological grades and types of tissue, lymph node metastasis and invade depth (P <0.05). FHIT expression was not correlated with age and clinical stage (P >0.05). There were significant differences in FHIT protein expression levels in the patients with cervial cancer between before-after radiotherapy and the levels before radiotherapy was lower then those after radiotherapy (P <0.05). There was positively correlated in FHIT protein expression rates before and after radiotherapy (P <0.05). There were significant correlation between FHIT expression and 3-year survival rate, the positive rates of the expression FHIT protein higher then negative ones (P <0.05). Conclusion FHIT protein has great reference value that could be as a parameter for evaluating biological action and predicting the prognosis of cervical cancer.
