Objective To evaluate risk factors for multidrug-resistant organisms(MDRO)pulmonary infection in elderly patients in a hospital, and provide scientific basis for prevention and control of MDRO infection. Methods 188 elderly patients who developed pulmonary infection between August 2010 and December 2012 were divided into MDR group (n=95)and non-MDR group (n=93)according to sputum bacterial culture results,clini-cal data of two groups of patients were analyzed.Results 102 strains of MDROs were isolated from patients with MDRO pulmonary infection,the top three were Acinetobacter baumannii (31 .37%),Pseudomonas aeruginosa (25.49%),and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (15.69%).Univariate analysis showed that 7 risk fac-tors for MDRO pulmonary infection in elderly patients were history of cerebrovascular disease or dementia,hy-poproteinemia,dysphagia,bedridden,history of ICU hospitalization,recent application of 3,4-generation cephalo-sporins,and invasive procedures.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that hypoproteinemia (OR,6.02 [95%CI ,1 .50-24.18]),invasive procedures (OR,6.55 [95%CI,1.69-25.44]),and bedridden (OR,6.03 [95%CI, 1.92-18.91])were independent risk factors for MDRO pulmonary infection in elderly patients.Conclusion Multiple factors contribute to MDRO pulmonary infection in elderly patients,comprehensive prevention and control measures should be taken against the risk factors,so as to prevent and control MRDO pulmonary infection in elderly patients.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the curative effects of nanometer silver dressing and recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor gel on burn residual wounds.METHODS: Forty burn patients with residual wounds because of deep second degree burn and full-thickness burn, were randomly divided into control group and management group. There were 20 patients in both groups. The patients of management group were treated by nanometer silver dressing and recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor gel. The patients of control group were treated by saline and paraffin absorbent gauze. Healing time, wound healing rates at different time points,cases of infected wound and results of bacterial culture before and 7 days following treatment, and drug adverse reaction were recorded.RESULTS: The healing time of management group was significantly shorter than the control group (P < 0.01). The wound healing rates of management group was significantly higher than the control group at different time points (P< 0.01). The cases of infected wound was significantly fewer than the control group after treating (P < 0.01). The pathogenic bacteria detection rate was significantly lower than the control group after 7 days (P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: There was better antibacterial activity, decurtating the healing time when the management of nanometer silver dressing and recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor gel on burn residual wounds were put into practice.

Objective To study the complete genome sequence of Hantavirus ZT71 strain gene isolated in Zhejiang province and explore its evolution. nethods The total RNA was prepared from ZT71 virus infected cells and the RT-PCR products were cloned into T vector, sequenced and analyzed. Results The L, M and S segments of the strain ZT71 genome were 6530,3651 and 1753 nucleotides in length with a single open reading frame individually encoding 2151,1133 and 429 amino acids. The sequence analysis of nucleotides showed that the homology of L, M and S segments of strain ZT71 between those of other strains of Seoul virus could reach 95.5%-99.7%, 84.1%-99.6% and 88.7%-99.5%, respectively. The analysis of the deduced amino acids showed the similar result. The source of strain ZT71 could be traced from the analysis of the phylogentic trees of nucleotides and amino acids, and it should belong to Seoul type of Hantavirus which was also verified serologically. Conclusion The nucleotide sequences and deduced amino acid sequences of L, M and S segments of strain ZT71 are similar to that of those of Seoul type of Hantavirus. And Hantaan type virus used to be prevalent primarily in Zhejiang province,and it would be an endemic area of mixed type of Hantavirus since the discoveries of the viruses of Soeul type in recent years.

Objective To investigate the differentiation of CD4+T helper cell in expressed prostatic secretions(EPS)in type Ⅲ prostatitis. Methods Seventy-six patients were studied,aged from 18 to 47(average 31.8).All patients presented with typical clinical symptoms for over 3 months.Cases were classified as type Ⅲ A(47 cases),type Ⅲ B(29 cases)and control group(16 cases)according to NIH classification system.Type Ⅲ A was also divided into group Ⅲ A1 with 26 cases(mild inflammation)and group Ⅲ A2 with 21 cases(severe inflammation).Th1 cytokine IFN-γ,Th2 cytokines IL-4 in EPS were detected by double antibody sandwich ELISA,and IFN-γ/IL-4 was determined.Results Compared with group control,IFN-γ in group Ⅲ A and Ⅲ B were significantly up regulated (134.78±43.67 pg/ml,109.82±30.09 pg/ml,P＜0.05),while IFN-γ level in group Ⅲ A was higher than in group Ⅲ B(P＜0.05).IL-4 in groupⅢ A was not changed(51.99±20.59 pg/ml,P＞0.05).IL-4 in group ⅢB was higher(76.40±17.99 pg/ml,P＜0.05).IFN-γ/IL-4 in group ⅢA was elevated significantly(2.94±1.12,P＜0.05),while IFN-γ/IL-4 in group ⅢB was not changed(1.49±0.48,P＞0.05).IFN-γ/IL-4 in group Ⅲ A2 was higher than in groupⅢA1 significantly(3.67±0.82vs 2.34±0.97,P＜0.05). Conclusions Th1 eell differentiation took the dominance in type Ⅲ A prostatitis.Th1/Th2 equilibrium was shifted to Th1.It is probably one of the pathogenies that Th1 dominant differentiation leads to local inflammation in prostate of type Ⅲ A prostatitis.

Objective To investigate the changes of the expressions of heat shock proteins 70 (HSP70) and insulin and HSP70 protect effect on the gastric mucosa of rats with scald injury, and explore the relationship between insulin and HSP70 . Methods With a model of 30 total body surface area (TBSA) full-thickness burned rats,the expression and distribution of HSP70 in the gastric mucosa was detected with immunohistochemical method and analyzed by a micro-image analysis system, and at the same time the pathological changes of the gastric mucosa tissue of each group were analyzed by Western blot and immunohistochemistry at the 3rd,6th,12th,24th and 48th hour postburn. Results The expression of HSP70 obviously decreased at the 48th hour post scald injury. The expression of HSP70 in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the scalded group at most time points except the 12th(9.40±1.52,P＝0.065) hour and at equal parallel time［(6.80±1.10,8.60±0.55,10.80±1.64,11.40±1.34),P＜0.05］. The gastric mucosal injury index in the scalded group was significantly higher than that in the treatment group and at equal parallel time ［(4.05±0.36,11.97±1.15,20.98±2.83,13.92±0.94,1.60±0.55),P＜0.05］. In pathological observation, the control group manifested the intact gastric mucosal tissue formation, the scalded group showed obvious gastric mucosal tissue injury in the early phase of scald injury, while the treatment group showed less severe injury than the scald group. A positive correlationwas found in the gastric mucosal injury index and HSP70(r＝0.904,P＜0.01) and also between the serum glucose and HSP70(r＝0.961,P＜0.01).Conclusions Insulin increased the expression of HSP70 and decreased the gastric mucosal injury index in the gastric mucosal tissue of SD rats in the phase of scald injury. It may be one of the vital mechanisms of insulin protecting the gastric mucosal tissue.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) for continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) in patients with severe trauma.Methods Sixty-four patients with severe trauma who needed to apply continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and were admitted into the department of critical care medicine in Tianjin Hospital from June 2013 to August 2015 were enrolled in the study.According to the patient's actual condition,they were divided into two groups:no anticoagulant group (29 cases) and RCA group (35 cases).The filter lifetime,after treatment the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT),acid-base balance,free calcium ([Ca2+]i) and serum sodium (Na+) concentrations,bleeding episodes were compared between the two groups.Results The average filter lifetime in RCA group was longer than that in no anticoagulant group (hours:50.7 ± 11.3 vs.4.9 ± 1.2,P ＜ 0.01).After the end of treatment,the levels of APTT (s:30.7 ± 8.8 vs.32.1 ± 7.3),pH value (7.41 ± 0.09 vs.7.40 ± 0.07),[Ca2+]i (mmol/L:2.13 ± 0.20 vs.2.21 ± 0.17),and Na+ (mmol/L:139 ± 8 vs.141 ± 6) were ofno significant differences between the RCA group and the no anticoagulant group (all P ＞ 0.05).The incidence of clinicalbleeding in RCA group was lower than that in no anticoagulant group [2.9％ (1/35) vs.13.8％ (4/29)],but the differencewas not statistically significant (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions RCA-CVVH is a safe and effective therapeutic method inpatients with severe trauma who need for CRRT,the stability of internal environment is not affected and no incidence ofclinical bleeding event is increased.

Periarticular fracture of the shoulder is a common type of fractures in the elderly. Postoperative adverse events such as internal fixation failure, humeral head ischemic necrosis and upper limb dysfunction occur frequently, which seriously endangers the exercise and health of the elderly. Compared with the fracture with normal bone mass, the osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder is complicated with slow healing and poor rehabilitation, so the clinical management becomes more difficult. At present, there is no targeted guideline or consensus for this type of fracture in China. In such context, experts from Youth Osteoporosis Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatrics Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Osteoporosis Group of Youth Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons and Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Chinese Integrative Medicine developed the Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder in the elderly ( version 2023). Nine recommendations were put forward from the aspects of diagnosis, treatment strategies and rehabilitation of osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder, hoping to promote the standardized, systematic and personalized diagnosis and treatment concept and improve functional outcomes and quality of life in elderly patients with osteoporotic periarticular fracture of the shoulder.
