Sponge Dysidea avara-associated bacteria were isolated by dilution-plate method and the bacterial anti-microbial activities were screened for Escherichia coli,Staphylococcus aureu, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Bacillus subtilis,Aspergillus niger, Candida albicans,Pacecilomyces variotii by agar diffusion method.At the same time, morphology observations, biochemical and physiological identification of active strains were made. In this paper, 149 strains were isolated from sponge Dysidea avara.20 strains, which amount to 13.4% of the total isolated strains, were found to have anti-microbial activity against fungi and gram-positive bacteria and were identified to be the genus Bacillus sp.

Objective The absorbable haemostatic membrane was used to stop bleeding during posterior spinal surgery so as to investigate the therapeutic effect and the security of the absorbable haemostatic membrane. Methods Ninety-four patients were enrolled into the experimental group and the control group. In the experimental group , the decompression wound is handled by using the regular absorbable haemostatic membrane to stop bleeding. In the control group , the conventional surgical methods , such as coagulation , brain cotton and other methods were used to stop bleeding. After the operations , patients in two groups were given indwelling vacuum drainage tube. The post operation vacuum pipe drainage , the drainage tube removing time , the incidence of postoperative complications after removing drainage tubes , the reoperation number , vital signs after 24 hour (temperature, respiration, pulse, blood pressure), and laboratory tests (blood count, coagulation function parameters) were determined and compared between two groups. Results Both the vacuum drainage at 24 hours post operation and the total vacuum drainage post operation were significantly reduced in the experimental group(P < 0.05, respectively). No significant differences in the coagulation function parameters were found between both two groups. Conclusion The absorbable haemostatic membrane may be applicable for spinal surgery.

Objective To analyze the distribution and drug resistance characteristics of pathogenic bacteria isolated from blood cultures in the infected patients in our hospital during 2009-2013 to provide the newest evidence for the clinical anti-infection ther-apy.Methods The bacterial identification and drug susceptibility test were performed by applying the VITEK-32 System.The dis-tribution situation and the drug susceptibility test results of pathogens isolated from blood culture specimens in our hospital during this period were analyzed.Results 2 301 strains of positive bacteria were isolated from 14 006 cases of blood culture during these five consecutive years.The positive rate was 16.4%.Among them,1 303 strains were Gram positive bacteria(56.6%),954 strains of Gram negative bacilli(41.5%)and 44 strains of fungi(1.9%).Gram-positive bacteria were mainly Staphylococcus aureus,coagu-lase negative staphylococci(CNS),etc.Gram-negative bacteria were mainly E.coli,Klebsiella pneumoniae,etc.E.coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were highly sensitive to carbapenem,amikacin,cefoxitin and antibacterial drugs containing enzyme inhibitor.The detec-tion rates of extended-spectrumβ-lactamase(ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 55.8% and 18.4%respectively.Acinetobacter baumannii in blood culture had serious resistance to most of antibacterial drugs.Conclusion The kinds of pathogens isolated from blood culture are complex with different sensitivity to antibacterial drugs.Timely understanding the re-sults of blood culture has the important significance to adjust the treatment scheme in clinic and timely discover drug-resistant strains for serve clinic better.

Objective To express Schistosoma japonicum Mago nashi(SjMago)gene,and prepare its specific polyclonal antibody.Methods SjMago gene was amplified by PCR from Schistosomulum cDNA library and subcloned into pET28a(+)vector,its recombinant proteins were expressed with IPTG.Rabbits were immunized with the polyacrylamide gel particles containing the recombinant proteins for polyclonal antibody preparation,the sera were detected for antibody specificity by Western blot and titer by ELISA assay.Results SjMago prokaryotic expression plasmid was successfully recombined and the target proteins was induced by IPTG in a molecular weight of 17 X 103,the high titer(1∶40 960)polyclonal antibody was isolated from the immunized rabbit,specific rotein band was detected by Western blot.Conclusion SjMago protein has been successfully expressed and its specific polyantibody is prepared,which lays the foundation for further study.

Objective To study the epidemiological characteristics of diabetes mellitus and to provide effective prevention and intervention methods in rural area in Kunming.Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 3 440 permanent residents aged 20~74 years in kunming rural districts.Results The general prevalence rate of diabetes was 4.01% and the standardized rate was 2.90%.The standardized prevalent rate for male(3.55%) was higher than that for female(2.61%),and the prevalence rates varied among different groups of rural inhabitants.Conclusion It is necessary to take effective methods to prevent and control diabetes in rural area.

ObjectiveTo recover the effect of rehabilitation therapy on the automatic nervous system(ANS)of patients with stroke. MethodsThe multiple index measurement was applied to measure ANS after stroke in 31 patients. The therapy of the Bobath,Brunnstrom and Rood were used as the basic methods for 3 months.ResultsThe balance index of the automatic nerve after treatment by the rehabilitation therapy was higher markedly than before(P<0.01).There is a correlativity with recovery of the movement function. Conclusions The rehabilitation can improve the function of automatic nerve.
