Objective To investigate antimicrobial resistance of clinical isolates from 15 hospitals submitted to Guangzhou Surveillance of Antimicrobial Resistance (GSAR) in 2007,and to learn the feature of bacterial resistance in Guangzhou.Methods Disc diffusion test (K-B methods) was employed to study the antimicrobial resistance.Results Of 18 500 clinical isolates,Gram negative bacilli and Gram positive cocci accounted for 68.4% and 31.6%,respectively,and 45.7% isolates in Gram negative bacilli belonged to non-fermentative bacilli.The detection rotes of methiciHin-resistant strains was 55.9% in Staphylococcus aureus and 75.9% in coagulase negative Staphylococcus.All of the Staphylococcus pneumoniae isolates were penicillin-susceptible (PSSP) according to 2008 CLSI criterion.One strains of Enterobacter faecium were identified as vancomycin-resistance (VRE).The resistant rates of Enterobacter to imipenem and merpenem were the lowest.The prevalence of ESBLs-producing strains in Enterobacter coli and Klebsiella spp.isolates was 43.8% and 39.8%,respectively.Against all the ESBLs strains in Enterobacter coli and Klebsiella spp,meropenem,imipenem,cefoperazone/sulbactam,and piperacillin/tazobactam showed the lowest resistant rates,ranging from 0 to 14.1%,20.4%,24.4% and 25.4% isolates of Pseudomonas aernginosa were resistant to efoperazone/sulbactam,piperacillin/tazobactam and meropenem,while 75.6%,72.4% and 63.2% isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were susceptible to piperacillin/tazobactam,meropenem and cefoperazone/sulbactam,respectively.The resistance rates of Acinetobacter spp.to cefoperazone/sulbactam and meropenem were 2.6% and 5.1%,respectively.Some panresistant isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (5.5%) and Ac/naobacter baumannii (1.5%) emerged.The resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Aeinetobacter baumannii isolated from sputum sample was higher than those from blood sample.Conclusions The increase of isolated rates of non-fermentative Gram-negative bacilli and the emerging bacterial resistance and oandrug resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii warrants further enbancing the local surveillance of bacterial resistance and characterization of panresistance mechanism to inform the rational use of anfimicrobial agents and containment of bacterial resistance.

Objective To propose a grasp torque control based on experimental learning and haptic feedback to facilitate the manipulator in dexterous manipulation.Methods An experience database was built firstly,and then the object was recognized by tactile feedback in the grasp task.If the object had been experitentially grasped,the torque was output based on the database.In case a new object was grasped,the optimal output torque was calculated by iterative learning.Results The experiment showed that the robot hand could find the experiential output torque quickly when encountering the object in database and calculate the torque by iterative learning to achieve grasp task.Conclusion The experiential database grows up when the robot hand learns more and more experience.It can fast output torque like human in the grasp task.

ObjectiveTo investigate the positive rate of thyroid peroxidase antibody(TPO-Ab) in the diabetic in-patients. MethodsThe positive rates of thyroid peroxidase antibody ( TPO-Ab ) was measured in 1884 subjects, including 1508 type 2 diabetes mellitus ( T2DM ), 76 classic typetype 1 diabeties( T1 DM ), 44 latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) and 256 "untype" diabetics ( NTDM ). Clinical data were registered and analyzed. Results( 1 )The positive rates of TPO-Ab were 14. 59% in T2DM(220/1508) ,42. 11% in T1DM (32/76) ,31.25% in NTDM ( 80/256 ), 63.64% in LADA group ( 28/44 ), respectively. The positive rate of T2DM was significantly lower than that of LADA ( P < 0. 05 ), but no significant difference was found in the coparison between T1 DM and NTDM ( P > 0. 05 ). ( 2 ) There were no significant differences between LADA and NTDM groups in the comparison of age, course of disease and BMI ( Ps > 0. 05 ). Conclusion①The positive rate of TPO-Ab in NTDM was significantly higher than that of T2DM, whereas significantly lower than that of T1 DM and LADA.②The positive rate of TPO-Ab was highest in LADA, which indicate that LADA and AIT might have the common etiological mechanisms. ③There is a consisted increasing trend in the positive rate of TPO-Ab from T2DM ,NTDM,and classic T1DM to LADA.

Objective To analyze the expression of urine exosomal miR-375 in prostate tumors and investigate its clinical utility.Methods A total of 45 patients with PCa,24 with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) and 24 healthy individuals were enrolled into this study.Exosomes were isolated from the urine of PCa,BPH and healthy individuals and the total RNA was extracted from the exosomes.The exosomal miR-375 expression was assessed by quantitative real-time PCR and analyzed with the comparative quantification cycle method (2-△△CT).We performed comprehensive biostatistical analyses to explore the clinical value of miR-375 in prostate cancer.Results The urine exosomal miR-375 expression was significantly downregulated in the patients with PCa compared with BPH and the healthy controls (P < 0.01).No statistically significant difference of the urine exosomal miR-375 expression levels between the patients with BPH and healthy individuals was observed (P > 0.05).The urine exosomal miR-375 expression level was also found to be associated with clinical stage and bone metastasis status of the patients with PCa (P <0.05),and with the increase of Clinical stage.The expression level of miR-375 decreased.No significant relationship was detected between miR-375 level and the patient's age,gleason score and serum prostate-specific antigen level (P > 0.05).Receiver operator characteristic analyses demonstrated that the urine exosomal miR-375 expression could better differentiate PCa from BPH patients:AUC 0.715 (95% CI:0.589-0.842) vs PSA AUC 0.632 (95% CI:0.492-0.771) (P<0.01).Conclusion The urine exosomal miR-375 could serve as a non-invasive biomarker for the diagnosis of PCa.

Objective To investigate the effect of expectant management on the maternal and/or infant out-comes of early onset severe preeclamp sia in different gestafional weeks. Methods A retrospective study was carried out on 158 patients with early onset severe preeclampsia. They were divided into three groups according to their onset gestation ago:group A( <28weeks,n=28) ,group B(≥28、<32weeks,n=51) and group C(≥32、< 34weeks,n =79). Results The rates of complications declined along with the postponement of the onset gestation age, but there was no statistical significant difference among these three groups. The neonatal asphyxia rate and perinatal infant mor-tality of these three groups declined along with the postponement of gestation age, and there were statistical significant differences among these three groups ( P<0.05 ). Expectant treatment time of group B was significantly longer than that of the other two groups ( P<0.05 ), and cesarean section was a main method of pregnancy termination for the groups B and C. Conclusion The smaller the gestational ages in the early onset severe preeelampsia,the higher the maternal and/ or infant complication rates, neonatal morbidity and mortality.
