BACKGROUND: Schwann cells are the seed cells of neural repair, and it is a key to harvest a large number of Schwann cells with high purity and activity. OBJECTIVE: To compare the in vitro culture, purification, and morphology of Schwann cells between neonatal and adult rats, and investigate a simple and feasible culture method to harvest high-purity Schwann cells. METHODS: Totally 30 Sprague-Dawley rats, comprising 20 neonatal (1-3 days after birth, neonatal group) and 10 adult (weighing 150-200 g, adult group) rats, were included. Following double-enzyme digestion and two incubations, Schwann cells were isolated and purified by differential attachment. Cell morphology and attaching speed were determined through the use of inverted microscope. Cells were counted and cell purity was calculated. Cell proliferative ability was detected by MTT microcolorimetry. Curves of cell proliferation in each group were depicted to determine proliferative speed. Schwann cells were identified by S-100 immunochemistry.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with fibroblasts, neonatal rat Schwann cells exhibited faster, while adult rat Schwann cells showed slower, attaching speed. Both neonatal and adult groups yielded over 96% cell purity. MTT microcolorimetry results revealed that Schwann cells proliferated actively in neonatal and adult groups. Cell proliferative curves show that neonatal rat Schwann cells proliferated faster than adult rat Schwann cells (P < 0.05). S-100 immunochemistry results showed positive results in both groups. All these findings suggest that double-enzyme digestion and two incubations followed by differential attachment is a satisfactory method to harvest considerable Schwann cells with high purity and activity. Neonatal rat Schwann cells show stronger proliferative, attaching capacities than adult rat Schwann cells.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and antibacterial resistance of nosocomial infection from a new hospital pathogens,and provide reference for clinical rational use of drugs.METHODS Statistical methods were used to analyze the data of pathogen′s formation,distribution and antibacterial resistance of a new hospital.RESULTS A total of 1852 clinical isolates were collected from Mar 2005 through Mar 2007,of which Gram-negative microorganisms and Gram-positive cocci accounted for 71.0 % and 29.0%,respectively.The most commonly encountered pathogens were Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Escherichia coli,Klebsiella spp,Acinetobacter,Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus.Except Acinetobacter,up to 6% strains of Gram-negative microorganisms were resistant to the imipenem,meropenem and piperacillin/tazobactam;Gram-positive cocci were still highly sensitive to vancomycin and teicoplanin.CONCLUSIONS A new hospital is similar with other hospitals in the data of formation,distribution and antibacterial resistance of nosocomial infection pathogens.

Abstract: Objective To explore the risk factors for macrolide unresponsive mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MUMPP) in children and to develop a model for predicting the risk of MUMPP. Methods Children with mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia admitted to the Pediatric Department of Leshan People's Hospital who met the inclusion criteria from March 1, 2023, to December 1, 2023, were retrospectively selected and divided into the responsive group and unresponsive group according to their reactions to macrolides. General patient data, laboratory tests, and imaging findings were collected and compared. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of the Macrolide unresponsive mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia, and R language (R4.2.3) to establish the nomogram model. The goodness of fit, discriminative ability, calibration, and clinical utility of the model were assessed using the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, calibration curve analysis, and decision curve analysis, respectively. Results A total of 224 patients were included in the analysis of children. Among them, 156 (70%) were randomly selected as the training set, and the remaining 68 cases (30%) were used as the validation set. Logistic regression analysis revealed that pleural effusion (OR=6.986, 95%CI 1.362-35.847), highest temperature before admission (OR=3.095, 95%CI 1.487-6.439), neutrophil count (OR=1.294, 95%CI:1.103-1.519), C-reactive protein (OR=1.030, 95%CI 1.002-1.058), and procalcitonin (OR=2.899, 95%CI:1.353-6.214) were independent risk factors for MUMPP in children (all P<0.05). A nomogram was established using R software. The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit tests for the training set and the validation set were χ2=4.018 and χ2=4.657 (all P>0.05), indicating a good fit of the model. The AUC values for the training set and validation were 0.825 (95%CI: 0.755-0.894) and 0.828 (95%CI 0.729-0.928), respectively, suggesting good discriminative ability of the model. Calibration curve analysis suggested that the model had good predictive performance, while decision curve analysis indicated a high clinical application value of the predictive model. Conclusions Pleural effusion, highest body temperature before admission, neutrophil count, C-reactive protein, and procalcitonin are independent risk factors for MUMPP in children. The prediction model constructed based on the above variables has high predictive efficacy and clinical application value.

Objective To establish a new traceability pathway of point-of-care testing ( POCT ) of HBA1c by using commutable quality controls, in order to improve the accuracy of POCT HBA1c and the harmonization of testing results with those of central laboratories.Methods The study was about measurement traceability. Human frozen whole blood samples with IFCC assigned values were used to calibrate the G8 HBA1c Variant in June, 2013.According to the CLSI EP9-A2-IR guideline, 50 patient samples and 2-level commercial QC samples were then analyzed by G8 system and DCA Ventage system.The best fitting curves for fresh patient samples and the commercial QC materials were established separately. The patient results tested on the DCA Ventage were modified and verified.Paired t-test and Passing Bablok linear regression were used.Results The linear equation of DCA/G8 before calibration was Y=0.899 5X+0.389 1(R2 =0.991 0).Calibration by fresh patient samples reduced the mean bias of DCA/G8 from -0.40%±0.34%to 0.00%±0.29%.Calibration by QCs reduced the mean bias to 0.15%±0.29%.The linear correlation established by quality controls was stable, which made the bias was lower between DCA and G8 in the consequent six runs.Conclusions The accuracy and the traceability of POC testing could be realized by using commutable QC materials traceable to IFCC assigned values.Through this method, POC testing can become more comparable to the results of clinical laboratory HBA1c instruments.

BACKGROUND:There are many ways for surgical treatment of distal radius fractures. Both volar locking plates and Kirschner wires are common methods. Doctors have considerable flexibility in the choice of the ways of fixation, but both at home and abroad there is no comparison between the effects of the two operations for treating distal radius fractures. OBJECTIVE:To systematicaly review the differences in effectiveness and safety of volar locking plates versusKirschner wires for distal radial fracture. METHODS:Databases such as CBM, CNKI, VIP, PubMed and Cochrane Library were electronicaly searched.Chinese Journal of Orthopaedics,Chinese Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma,Chinese Journal of Trauma andJournal of Practical Orthopaedics were searched by hand. In strict accordance with inclusion and exclusion criteria, articles were screened. Methodological quality of included studies was evaluated according to Cochrane Handbook. Data were extracted, and then analyzed with RevMan 5.2 software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Nine randomized controled trials were included. Meta-analysis results demonstrated that upper limb function scores were better in the volar locking plate group than in the Kirschner wire group [MD=-4.55(-7.89,-1.21),P=0.008] at 3 months of folow-up and [MD=-3.13(-6.08,-0.18),P=0.004] at 12 months. The incidence of infection was lower in the volar locking plate group than in the Kirschner wire group [OR= 0.42(0.23, 0.79),P=0.007]. No significant difference in incidence of complex regional pain syndrome [OR=0.28(0.05, 1.38),P=0.12], incidence of carpal tunnel syndrome [OR=0.75(0.20, 2.76),P=0.66] and tendon injury [OR= 1.66(0.51, 5.41),P=0.64] was detected between the volar locking plate group and Kirschner wire group. These results indicated that compared with the Kirschner wire, volar locking plate fixation for the repair of distal radial fracture is safe and effective. In the permission of economic circumstances, it is suggested that elder osteoporosis patients with distal radial fracture should receive plate fixation.
