Objective To evaluate the changes of reticulated platelets (RP)in diagnosis and treatment of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Methods RPs were measured by flow cytometry and the percentage and absolute counts of RPs were calcula- ted in ITP group,non-ITP group and control group.Results Compared with control group,ITP group had a significantly high percentage and low absolute counts of RPs (P

Ojective To evaluate the clinical application of ultrasound-guided Mammotome system to the treatment of patients with breast fibroadenoma. Methods The minimally invasive operations for 53 breast fibroadenoma in 43 patients were performed by ultrasound-guided Mammotome system, and the therapeutic efficacy of Mammotome system was evaluated. Results 53 lesions (0.6cm～2.2cm) in 43 patients with breast fibroadenoma were completely excised by the Mammotome system. The average incisions were 17 times and the mean operative time was 31 min. All the operations were successfully accomplished without serious complication. The length of incision was only 3 mm. And no recurrence was found by physical examination and B-ultrasonography in 15 patients(21 lesions) during follow up period for 6～21(13.5?4.0) months. Conclusions Mammotome system is simple and effective technique with minimal invasion for the excision of small breast fibroadenoma.

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of operation treatment of Lisfranc fracture dislocation,and evaluate its clinical effect.Methods Thirty-nine patients with Lisfranc joint injuries (46 sides) were managed with open reduetlon as well as internal fixation with serews and Kirsehnerwlres.Results All the patients were followed up from12.0 to 42.0 months,the average was (21.1 ± 1.8) months.Evaluated the clinical effect according to the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) midfoot score standard,there were 29 cases of excellent,8 cases of good,and 3 cases of aceeptable.Conclusion By Kirschner wire combining with screw fixation,open reduction and internal fixation may achieve satisfactory clinical results for the treatment of Lisfranc joint injurie.The operation is simple and fast,small trauma,less complications and can obtain good effects.

Objective To investigate if the 23 strains of highly-resistant P.aeruginosa isolated from different patients in the in- tensive care unit (ICU) have the same origin;and explore the related mechanisms of carbapenem resistance in these multidrug- resistant P.aeruginosa.MethOds Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using disk-diffusion technique.The strains were genotyped by rep-PCR with the primer ERIC2 followed by electrophoresis in agarose gel.We used a previously described imipenem-EDTA double-disk test for screening MBL-producing P.aeruginosa.Polymerase chain reaction for amplification of blaOprD, blaIMP, and bla VIM were performed to detect corresponding mutants.Results The result of antimicrobial suscepti- bility testing showed that 20 of the 23 P.aeruginosa isolates were muhidrug-resistant and highly resistant to imipenem and meropenem, and at least 5 antimicrobial agents tested in this study.The analysis of the rep-PCR products indicated that all the 19 carbapenem-resistant strains had an identical band pattern, which was different from that seen in the sensitive strains.Al- though imipenem-EDTA double-disk test identified 5 MBL-producing strains, PCR found that all the 23 strains were negative for bla VIM and blaIMP.Only one OprD-deficient mutant was identified.Conclusions The 19 highly-resistant strains of P. aeruginosa derive from a common origin.More researches are needed to clarify their mechanism of carbapenem resistance.

Objective To explore the changes and clinical significance of prothrombin time(PT),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),thrombin time(TT),fibrinogen time(FGB)and platelet(PLT)on Kawasaki disease(KD)in children with acute and convalescent 10 d,which aimed at early diagnosis,prediction and prognosis of coronary artery lesions.Methods Thirty-eight cases who were diagnosed KD were selected as KD group,30 cases age-matched acute respiratory infections in children with fever as fever group,moreover,30 cases of a class of elective surgery preoperative children admitted to surgical departments were put as control group.The plasma PT,APTT,TT,FGB,PLT of all cases and plasma APTT,FGB,PLT in recovery 10 d in children with KD disease were detected,and then the results were compared between the 3 groups;and the results of APTT,FGB,PLT in KD children with acute and convalescent 10 d to coronary artery dilatation groups or not were compared.Results 1.APTT prolonged and FGB,PLT increased in KD children with acute stage,which had a significant difference compared with other groups(Pa0.05).2.When comparing the results of APTT,FGB,PLT in KD children with acute and convalescent 10 d,the difference was significant(Pa

Objective To investigate the effect of probiotic supplement on the microbiology,bacterial translocation,and gut barrier function of the rats with abdominal infection. Methods After making the models of cecal ligation and perforation,the SD rats were divided into two groups.The rats in the control group were administrated with parenteral nutrition.The rats in the experimental group were administrated with parenteral nutrition and probiotics via the needle jejunostomy and neck vein for 5 d.The feces in the cecum were cultured by anaerobic bacterial growth.The vena cava blood and the homogenated tissues of the lives,hungs and mesenteric lymph nodes were cultured to determine bacterial translocation. Results The quantity of normal intestinal bacteria in the experimental group and the control group had significant difference except Enterobacteriaceae.The quantity of L.acidophilus and Bifidobacteria in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group.The quantity of C.perfrigens,the potential pathogenic germ in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group(P
