Objective Using 16S rRNA gene sequencing as the gold standard method,to compare the performance of two matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry system (MALDI Biotyper and VITEK MS) for identifying clinical isolates of Streptococcus spp.Methods One hundred and sixty two clinical Streptococcus isolates were collected at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University,from April to June,2014,and confirmed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis.MALDI Biotyper and VITEK MS mass spectrometry system were used for identification and further evaluated by performance respectively.Results Of all the isolates tested,155 (155/162,95.68%) Streptococcus isolates were accurately identified to species level by MALDI Biotyper.Besides,MALDI Biotyper identified three Streptococcus mitis group as S.pneumoniae and one S.parasanguinis as S.australis.Another three S.pneumonia isolates were not identified accurately (values < 1.7).Although 156 (156/162,96.30%) isolates were accurately identified to species level (including subspecies) by VITEK MS system,two S.pneumoniae as S.mitis/S.oralis and one S.euinus as S.infantarius ssp.infantarius were misidentified.The two systems showed a 100% (51/51) accuracy in identifying all S.pyogenes and S.agalactiae isolates,and an accuracy higher than 85% for S.pneumoniae.Conclusions Both systems showed potent identification ability for Streptococcus spp.,VITEK MS system showed more clinical significance in accurately identifying some subspecies.Mass spectrometry system can be used as a rapid identification method for Streptococcs spp.in clinical practice.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and the prognosis of benin convulsions as-sociated with mild gastroenteritis( BICE) in children. Methods To study clinical features of 248 children with BCIE,they followed up for 12 months,and their prognosis were observe. Results Age between 3 months and 3 years,twice or more seizures were occurred on 124 patients. 64 patients suffered the seizures more than 30 mi-nutes. Cranial CT/MRI showed no abnormality. Laboratory examinations were normal, including plasma glu-cose,serum electrolytes and cerebrospinal fluid. Followed up for 12 months,14 patients (5. 6%) suffered from recurrence of BICE,12 patients (4. 8%) suffered from simple febrile seizures,and 8 patients (3. 2%) devel-oped epilepsy. Conclusion The prognosis is good in majority of cases,but some cases may transform febrile seizure or epilepsy. It is more likely to transform epilepsy,when the children suffer from febrile seizure.

A size exclusion chromatography method ( SEC) was established for the screening of macromolecules in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) injections. In the experiment, TCM was collected through 0. 45μm hybrid filter and separated by SEC with MAbPac SEC-1 column. Acetonitrile was added by post-column mode with a flow rate of 0. 2 mL/min to enhance the detection sensitivity, and 25 mmol/L ammonium formate was used as the mobile phase at flow rate of 0. 2 mL/min. The charged aerosol detection was carried out with Dextran and Tween as the reference standards. The molecular weight distribution of Dextran ranged from 2500 to 133800 had a good linear relationship with the retention time. No macromolecules were detected out in the selected traditional Chinese medicine injections except Kuhuang injections.

Objective To compare the effects of expectoration by high frequency back tapping with both hands and traditional expectoration by tapping back with a single hand on pulmonary complications in esophageal cancer patients having undergone radical resection with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Methods Sixty patients after radical resection for esophageal cancer with VATS from May 2013 to January 2014 were set as the control group, in which expectoration by tapping the back with a single hand. Another 60 patients after radical resection for esophageal cancer with VATS from February 2014 to July 2014 were set as the observation group, in which the expectoration by high frequency tapping the back with both hands. The two groups were compared in terms of pulmonary complications. Result The incidence of atelectasis and pulmonary infection in the observation group were lower than those with a single hand in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion For the patients having undergone radical resection of esophageal carcinoma with VATS, the expectoration with high frequency back tapping with both hands is more effective in lowering atelectasis rate than that with a single hand.

BACKGROUND:Studies have found that peripheral blood stem cel s can highly differentiate into vascular endothelial cel s to promote blood vessel regeneration, and improve col ateral circulation, thereby achieving satisfactory outcomes in the treatment of limb ischemia. OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical effect in diabetic lower extremity vascular disease patients undergoing percutaneous transluminal angioplasty combined with autologous peripheral blood stem cel transplantation. METHODS:Fifty patients hospitalized for diabetic lower extremity vascular disease from March in 2011 to December in 2014 were col ected:25 cases underwent percutaneous transluminal angioplasty as control group;another 25 underwent percutaneous transluminal angioplasty combined with autologous peripheral blood stem cel transplantation as combination group. At 1, 6, 12 months after surgery, subjective scores of affected limb pain and cold sensation were recorded, additional y, objective indicators, including ankle-brachial index, transcutaneous oxygen partial pressure, and claudication distance were detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Ankle-brachial index scores of the two groups were significantly increased, especial y at 1 month after surgery, but decreased at 6, 12 months, and there was a significant difference compared with that before treatment (P<0.05);at 1, 6, and 12 months, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). At 1, 6, and 12 months after surgery, both of transcutaneous oxygen partial pressure and claudication distance in the two groups were significantly increased compared with those before treatment (P<0.05). Furthermore, compared with the control group, these two indicators in the combination group were significantly increased (P<0.05). Within 12-month follow-up, affected limb pain and cold sensation were improved in the two groups, especial y in the combination group. Inevitably, three cases had hypocalcemia during the col ection of peripheral blood stem cel s, and two cases developed fever and 3 cases appeared to have local exudation after surgery. All these symptoms were released by symptomatic treatments, respectively. In conclusion, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty combined with autologous peripheral blood stem cel transplantation for diabetic lower extremity vascular lesions can promote the establishment of affected limb col ateral circulation, to decrease the risk of limb ischemia, which achieves significant outcomes than percutaneous transluminal angioplasty used alone.

Objective To evaluate a new method for the isolation of rat pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) and to investigate the influence of adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) on PSCs in vitro.Methods Normal rat PSCs was isolated by collagenase and Optiprep density gradient centrifugation.The coculture system of ADSCs and PSCs was set up by transwell insert.The proliferation of PSCs was tested by CCK-8 test kit.Smoothmuscle α-actin (α-SMA) expression of PSCs were tested by Western blot.The apoptosis of HSCs was tested by flow cytometer.The cytokines in the culture solution were tested by ELISA kit.Results The quantity of PSCs was above 5 × 106 cells per rat.The purity and the viability of the cells were about 90-97 percent.After coculture for 72 h,the proliferation and activation of PSCs was inhibited by ADSCs (F =223.27,P < 0.05 ; F =52.97,P < 0.05) and the apoptosis of PSCs was promoted by ADSCs (F =43.62,P < 0.05).more NGF and less TGF-β1 was secreted by ADSCs than by PSCs (NGF:14.68 ± 0.94 vs.8.31 ±0.86,t =4.67,P <0.05;TGF-β1:10.65 ±0.46 vs.70.47 ±0.99,t =21.72,P<0.01).Conclusions ADSCs inhibit the proliferation and activation of PSCs by ADSCs secreting cytokines.
