Objective To establish and evaluate the method for detection of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) by the cefoxitin disk diffusion test.Methods The disks with 30 microgramme of cefoxitin and oxacillin recommended by NCCLS were used for the detection of MRSA with PCR by using mecA as the reference.The MIC of cefoxitin to Staphylococcus aureus was also determined.Results Of the 145 test isolates of Staphylococcus aureus,83 isolates showed the mecA-positive by PCR,62 isolates were negative.In cefoxitin disk diffusion tests,82 isolates showed MRSA-positive and 63 isolates were negative.The sensitivity was 98.8% and the specificity was 100%.In oxacillin diffusion tests,the sensitivity was 95.2% and the specificity was 96.8%.Conclusions For the detection of MRSA,the cefoxitin disk diffusion test was consistent with the results by PCR for mecA.The cefoxitin disk diffusion test is easy to be performed and can be used in routine diagnostic works.

Aim To investigate the effect of osthole against thrombosis and platelet aggregation.Methods Rat model of artery-vein bypass thrombosis and mouse model of thrombosis by injecting collagen-adrenaline to the vein of the tail were used to measure the thrombus weight and to observe the number of dead mice in 5 min and the recovery mice from hemiplegia in 15 min. ADP,thrombin and arachidonic acid were used to induce platelet aggregation on human and the rate of platelet aggregation in 1,3 and 5 min and the maximum rate of platelet aggregation were detected.Results Osthole inhibited artery-vein bypass thrombosis and reduced thrombus weight in rats to defferent degrees,inhibited the thrombosis induced by collagen-adrenaline and reduced the death rate in 5 min and increased the recovery rate in 15 min. Osthole also inhibited human platelet aggregation induced by ADP,thrombin and arachidonic acid in vitro.The values of IC_(50 )(dose of the drug giving 50% inhibition) were 0.444 g?L~(-1) for ADP,0.186 g?L~(-1) for thrombin, 0.421 g?L~(-1) for arachidonic acid, respectively.Conclusion Osthole exert remarkable effects against thrombosis and platelet aggregation.

Objective To investigate the effects of Panax notoginseng saponins(PNS,三七总皂苷) on extra-vascular lung water(EVLW) and respiratory dynamics in dog with oleic acid induced acute lung injury(ALI).Methods Eighteen Beagle dogs,intubated and mechanically ventilated with intermittent positive pressure ventilation(IPPV) mode(tidal volume(VT) 10 ml/kg, positive end-expiratory pressure(PEEP) 0,inspiratory oxygen concentration(FiO2) 1.00),were randomly assigned into three groups(each n=6): normal control group,ALI model group(induced by intravenous injection of oleic acid) and PNS group(received PNS after the ALI model was constructed).PNS 10 mg/kg being dissolved in 100 ml 5% glucose solution(GS) was pumped into central vein (2.5 ml/min) after ALI model was formed in the PNS group.Similar amount of glucose solution was given to the normal control and model groups.Respiratory dynamics and arterial blood gas(ABG) were monitored every hour.Four hours after the establishment of ALI,the dogs were sacrificed and extra-vascular lung water index(EVLWI) was quantified by a gravimetric measurement.Results In ALI dogs,PNS significantly decreased the index of EVLWI((14.10?1.45) ml/kg vs.(17.97?0.85) ml/kg,P0.05).Conclusion PNS has certain protective effect on dog with oleic acid induced ALI,it may lower EVLW and elevate the Cst total,that is beneficial to the improvement of hypoxemia.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of Yishen Tianjing Zhuyun Prescription(a Chinese herbal recipe consisting of Xianqi Yizhen Capsules and Xianzi Yizhen Capsules, having the actions of strengthening kidney-essence and promoting gestation) together with active lymphocyte immunotherapy for habitual abortion (HA)patients. Methods A total of 139 HA outpatients with negative blocking antibodies(BA)were randomly divided into treatment group(70 cases) and control group(69 cases). The control group was treated only with active lymphocyte immunotherapy, while the treatment group was treated with Yishen Tianjing Zhuyun Prescription and active lymphocyte immunotherapy . Results (1) After treatment, the BA-positive rate was 82.86% in the treatment group and was 60.87% in control group, and there existed significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.05 ). (2) The total anti-abortion effective rate was 87.14% in the treatment group and was 66.67% in control group, the difference being significant between the two groups(P<0.05 ). Conclusion Yishen Tianjing Zhuyun Prescription combined with active lymphocyte immunotherapy is more effective than active lymphocyte immunotherapy alone for the treatment of HA patients with negative BA.

Objective To explore the correlation between homocysteine(Hcy),lipids amd type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods The laboratory test results of 533 cases of patients with T2DM(T2DM group)and 362 cases of healthy individuals (healthy control group)were retrospectively analyzed.Results The serum levels of Hcy and rates of abnormal serum cholesterol (TC),triacylglycerol(TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)levels in the T2DM group were higher than those in the healthy control group,had statistically significant differences(P <0.05).Conclusion The high serum level of Hcy and abnormal lipid metabolism are correlated with T2DM,which might be risk factors of diabetes mel-litus and cardiovascular disease.

Objective To investigate the linezolid resistance mechanisms and molecular epidemiology of clinical isolates of methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci (MRCoNS).Methods Seventeen MRCoNS,including 10 S.capitis,4 S.cohnii,2 S.haemolyticus,and 1 S.sciuri with various levels of linezolid resistance were isolated from intensive care units in our hospital from March to August 2011. Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined by E-test method. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis was performed to analyze the molecular epidemiology.PCRs and DNA sequencing were preformed to investigate the mechanisms of linezolid resistance in MRCoNS.Results Nine S.capitis with linezolid MIC of ＞256 μg/ml were indistinguishable,and another S.capitis with linezolid MIC of 4 μg/ml was closely related.Four S.cohnii with linezolid MIC of ＞256 μg/ml were belonged to the same clonal strain.MIC of linezolid for S.sciuri was 64 μg/ml,and were 4 μg/ml and 6 μg/ml for 2 S.haemolyticus,respectively.A commom G2576T mutation and a novel C2104T mutation were identified in 9 S.capitis with linezolid MIC of ＞256 μg/ml by DNA sequence analysis of domain V of the 23S rRNA gene.cfr gene was deteeted in all staphylococci except a S.sciuri whose 23S rRNA gene contained the G2576T mutation.Conclusion It is the first report of linezolid-resistant clinical isolates of staphylococci in China.Linezolid resistance in MRCoNS is related to the presence of DNA mutation in domain V of the 23S rRNA gene and cfr gene.It's a clonally dissemination of linezolid-resistant MRCoNS in intensive care units of our hospital.

Objective To investigate the early changes of CD4 + T cells and the relevant cytokines in blood of patients with severe trauma.Methods Sixty-one consecutive patients with trauma admitted into the 97th Hospital of PLA from September 2009 to November 2011 were enrolled in this study.The exclusion criteria included:① Patients were younger than 18 or older than 75 years.②Patients received blood transfusion.③Those suffered from immune system disorders,tumors or diabetes,or recent history of virus,bacteria or parasites infections.④ Those had current or recent treatment with corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs.According to ISS score ≥ 16,there were 61 traumatic patients divided into mild trauma group and severe trauma group.Seventeen healthy volunteers were taken as control subjects.At admission,the peripheral venous blood samples of patients were taken to count the number of CD3+,CD4 +,CD8 + T cells by flow cytometry and to detect TNF-α,INF-γ,IL-1,IL4,IL-6 and IL-12 levels in plasma by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay,meanwhile the ratio of Th1 / Th2 type cytokine were calculated.Data were analyzed with t test and ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis test by using SPSS version 16.0package.P value ＜ 0.05 was considered to be statistical significance.Results Compared with control group,mild trauma and severe trauma groups showed a similar decrease in number of CD3 + T cells,and severe trauma group showed a most significant decrease in number of CD4 + T cells.Severe trauma group had a lower INF-γ level compared with control group; IL-1 level in both mild trauma and severe trauma groups were lower than that in the control group; INF-γ/ IL-6 in severe group was significantly lower than that in the mild group.However,INF-γ IL-6 in mild group was higher than that in the control group.Conclusions The early stage of severe trauma exhibits a significant decrease in number of both CD3 + and CD4 +T cells,accompanied by a significant reduction in most of cytokines,and has a tendency of shift to Th2 type cytokine.Therefore,the changes of immune cells should be promptly and successively monitored after severe trauma.
