Objective To investigate the drug sensitivity of mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa to common antibiotics and the expression of β-lactamase-resistant phenotype.Methods The specimens were inoculated onto different disks to isolate and cultivate bacteria.The antibiotic susceptibility of mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates was detected and judged by CLSI 2013.The detection of drug resistance was done by Kirby-Bauer (K-B) method and β lactamase-resistant phenotype was detected by E-test.SPSS19.0 was used to statistic data and x2 test was used to compare the antibiotic susceptibility between different groups.For all statistical test,a P values less than 0.05 was defined as statistically significant.Results The susceptibilities of mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa to the regular antibiotics were above 70％,of which the sensitivities to amikacin,to bramycin,gentamicin,imipenem and meropenem were higher than 90％.The positive rate of ampler class C β-lactamase (AmpC) was 28.3％ (56/198).The drug sensitivity of positive strains was lower than that of the negative strains,and the differentiation was significant to piperacillin-tazobactam,amikacin,ceftazidime,levofloxacin,ciprofloxacin and aztreonam (x2 =3.89-14.45,all P ＜0.05).The positive rate of extended spectrum β-lactamase(ESBLs) was 10.6％ (21/198).The drug sensitivity to ceftazidime and aztreonam of positive strains[42.9％ (9/21) and 57.1％ (12/21),respectively].It was lower than that of the negative strains [73.5％ (130/177) and 72.3％ (128/177)],x2 =5.06 and 19.24,both P ＜ 0.05.The difference of the other antibiotics was not significant(x2 =0.01-3.47,all P ＞0.05).The positive rate of metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) was 19.7％ (39/198),and the drug susceptibility of positive strains was lower than that of negative strains except gentamicin and aztreonam(x2 =4.07-15.99,all P ＜ 0.05).All the detected strains were Klebsiella pneumonia carbapenemase (KPC) negative.Conclusions The antibiotic susceptible rate of mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa was high,but some enzyme-produced strains were lower.The clinician should adjust medicine program by the results of laboratory.

OBJECTIVE To observe bacterial distribution and drug resistance in Ningxia.METHODS The patients with nosocomial infection mornitored by Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region Nosocomial Infection Surveillance System from Jan 2003 to Dec 2007 were analyzed and summarized.RESULTS Amomg 3276 isolates,1752 strains(53.48%) were Gram-negative bacilli,1471 strains(44.9%) were Gram-positive cocci and,53(1.62%) fungi.The most common pathogens were Escherichia coli(909),Staphylococcus aureus(509),S.epidermidis(260),Enterococcus faecalis(258),and Pseudomonas aeruginosa(206).Most of them were multidrug resistant.Most strains of Gram-negative bacilli were highly susceptible to imipenem,while most strains of Gram-positive cocci were highly susceptible to vancomycin.CONCLUSIONS Most pathogens of nosocomial infection are multidrug resistant,the resistance detection of bacteria has an important significance to clinical treatment and infection control.

Objective To explore the inhibitory effects of sulfated oligosaccharides PI-88 on the heparanase protein expression of human esophageal squamous cancer cell (ESCC) line TE-13, and to explore the effects of growth, angiogenesis and heparanase protein expression on ESCC xenografts of nude mice. Methods TE-13 cells were cultured and divided into three groups:group A (control group), group B (15 mg/L PI-88) and group C (30 mg/L PI-88). Heparanase protein expression of TE-13 cells was measured by Western blot assay after being cultured for 36 h. The ESCC suspension was injected subcutaneously in 10 BALB/c/nu mice to build up ESCC xenograft model. The model mice were divided randomly into observation group and control group (5 mice per group). The mice in observation group received 40 mg/(kg·d) PI-88. The mice in control group only received the same volume of saline at the same time. Both PI-88 and saline were daily administrated for 14 days. Every 2 days,the volume of xeongrafts were measured and the mice were executed at the 14th day. CD34 immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the micro vessel density (MVD) of xenografts. Western blot assay and immunohistochemical staining were used to detect the heparanase protein expression of xenografts. Results The heparanase protein expressions of TE-13 cells were significantly decreased in group B and group C than those of group A (P<0.001), with a kind of PI-88 dose-dependent manner. The volume, MVD and heparanase protein expression of xenografts were significantly lower in observation group than those of control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The heparanase protein expression in TE-13 cells can be inhibited by PI-88 in vitro and vivo. Furthermore, the growth and angiogenesis of ESCC xenografts were also inhibited by PI-88.

Objective To compare the difference of three methods testing the antibiotic susceptibility of mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa in order to provide accurate and reliable antibiotic susceptibility result for clinic.Methods A total of 630 mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa were collected from Linyi People′s Hospital during January 2015 to December 2016.They mainly come from respiratory medicine and the most common specimen source was sputum.All specimens were examined in 2 h.The strains isolated from the same patient were discarded.Antibiotic susceptibility was tested by the automatic microorganism analyzer VITEK2 compact, E-test, which was reference method, and K-B disk.The results of three methods were analyzed and compared by χ2 test.Results The result of E-test showed that antibiotic sensitivity of 630 mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa was above 52.7% except for Cefepime (39.2%).The result of K-B disk was compared with E-test, the antibiotic sensitivity of mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa to imipenem (72.4% vs 52.7%) and amikacin (48.6% vs 71.1%)had significant difference (χ2=8.283 7 and 10.533 8, P<0.05).The result of VITEK2 compact showed that the antibiotic susceptibility of mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa to imipenem(70.8% vs 52.7%), cefepime(60.8% vs 39.2%), gentamicin (87.6% vs 74.1%)and levofloxacin(81.3% vs 65.4%) was significant higher than the result of E-test (χ2=6.935 2,9.331 2,5.885 6 and 6.466 5, P<0.05).For tobramycin, piperacillin/tazobactam and ciprofloxacin, the result of three methods is more consistent.Compared to VITEK2 compact, the consistency between K-B disk and E-test was higher.The rate of very major error and major error were between 0.0%-4.8% (Amikacin 12.2%) and minor error was 4.6%-20.3%.Conclusions The drug sensitivity of mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa is different between various methods.The result of K-B disk and E-test using blood MH is more reliable than VITEK2 compact.

Objective To investigate the incidence and etiological factors of hyponatremia following traumatic brain injury (TBI) and analyze the relationship between hyponatremia and the patient’s age, gender, type of injury, Glasgow coma scale (GCS), operation and computerized tomography (CT) scan of head. Methods Clinical data of 136 pa-tients with moderate or severe TBI in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively, including patient’s age, gender, type of injury, GCS, operation, brain edema and basal skull fracture. The relationship between clinical data and hyponatremia were analyzed statistically by Chi-square test and multivariate Logistic regression analysis. Results There were 56 pa-tients with hyponatremia in 136 patients (81 males) with moderate or severe TBI. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that hyponatremia secondary to TBI was not associated with patient’s age, gender, type of injury and operation or not. However, there was a high correlation between hyponatremia following TBI and clinical characteristics of TBI at ear-ly stage, such as GCS, brain edema and basal skull fracture. Conclusions Patients with TBI is more likely to develop hy-ponatremia when they have the following clinical factors, such as GCS≤8, brain edema or basal skull fracture. Preven-tive measures should be given to these patients in advance.

Objective:To analysis the prognosis related factors of patients with small cell cancer of the esophagogastric junction treated by surgery.Methods:The clinicopathologic data of 129 patients with small cell cancer of the esophagogastric junction underwent surgery treatment in the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2004 to December 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate survival survival was performed by Kaplan-Meier method and Log rank test. Multivariate survival was analyzed by using Cox proportional hazard model.Results:Radical surgery was performed in 123 patients, whereas other 6 cases were conducted palliative operation. The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate of this cohort was 21.0% and median survival time was 25.7 months. The 5-year progression free survival (PFS) rate of this cohort was 11.0% and median PFS time was 19.1 months. The univariate analysis result showed that operation manner, radical or not, tumor length, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage, intravascular cancer embolus surgical margin positive or not, the expression of Syn, comprehensive treatment and radiochemotherapy after progression were associated with the OS of these patients ( P<0.05). Multivariate analysis result showed that lymph node metastasis, radiochemotherapy after progression were independent risk factors of OS ( P<0.05). Univariate analysis result showed that operation manner, radical or not, tumor length, TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, intravascular cancer embolus, surgical margin positive or not, the expression of Syn, comprehensive treatment and radiochemotherapy after progression were associated with PFS ( P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that lymph node metastasis and radiochemotherapy after progression were independent risk factors of PFS ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The prognosis of small cell cancer of the esophagogastric junction patients remains poor. Lymph node metastasis and radiochemotherapy after progression are regarded as independent prognostic factors of these patients.

Objective:To study the orthopedic treatment strategy for hemophilia complicated with musculoskeletal disorders as well as the peri-operative consumption of clotting factor.Methods:Total 338 orthopedic surgeries were performed for 261 patients, average age of 30.6 y (6-65 y) , with hemophilia between January 1996 and December 2019 at our institute. Two hundred and twenty-six patients presented with bleeds within the joints. Sixty-one patients presented with intramuscular bleeds, 45 presented with hemophilic pseudotumors, and six presented with miscellaneous complaints. Strategy of clotting factor replacement therapy was designed as per differences in the level of the operation procedure. Information regarding clinical manifestation, operative strategy, clotting factor consumption, and re-operation for complications was retrospectively recorded. The costs for multiple joint procedure and single joint procedure were studied.Results:We found that 270 of the 338 surgical procedures were major surgical procedures (79.9%) . There were 203 procedures of joint arthroplasty (60%) . Fourteen patients underwent reoperations for local recurrence (4.2%) . The average factor Ⅷ consumption before the surgery was 44.4 ± 8.1 IU/kg. The average FⅧ consumption within postoperative 2 weeks was 40 962 IU (647±177 IU/kg) . Seven type A hemophilic patients developed F Ⅷ inhibitor following the surgical procedure, with an average level of 13.7±11.2 BU/mL. Sixty-eight patients underwent multiple joint procedures under one anesthesia session (26%) . There was no significant difference in the factor consumption between the multiple joint procedure and single joint procedure.Conclusions:Surgical treatment was found to be effective for hemophilic arthropathy and lesion of the musculoskeletal apparatus, with the clotting factor replacement therapy. Multiple joint procedures under one anesthesia were more cost effective for patients with hemophilia, with less factor consumption than staged single joint procedure.

Multiple plant lineages have independently evolved sex chromosomes and variable kary-otypes to maintain their sessile lifestyles through constant biological innovation.Morus notabilis,a dioecious mulberry species,has the fewest chromosomes among Morus spp.,but the genetic basis of sex determination and karyotype evolution in this species has not been identified.In this study,three high-quality genome assemblies were generated for Morus spp.[including dioecious M.notabilis(male and female)and Morus yunnanensis(female)]with genome sizes of 301-329 Mb and were grouped into six pseudochromosomes.Using a combination of genomic approaches,we found that the putative ancestral karyotype of Morus species was close to 14 protochromosomes,and that sev-eral chromosome fusion events resulted in descending dysploidy(2n=2x=12).We also charac-terized a～6.2-Mb sex-determining region on chromosome 3.Four potential male-specific genes,a partially duplicated DNA helicase gene(named MSDH)and three Ty3_Gypsy long terminal repeat retrotransposons(named MSTG1/2/3),were identified in the Y-linked area and considered to be strong candidate genes for sex determination or differentiation.Population genomic analysis showed that Guangdong accessions in China were genetically similar to Japanese accessions of mul-berry.In addition,genomic areas containing selective sweeps that distinguish domesticated mul-berry from wild populations in terms of flowering and disease resistance were identified.Our study provides an important genetic resource for sex identification research and molecular breeding in mulberry.
