The paper reported a patient under maintained hemodialysis for 11 years, with a large mass appeared in the right thigh after local injury. The mass was clinically considered as tumoral calcinosis combined with clinical, imaging and pathological findings. Several treatments such as enhancing dialysis adequacy, low calcium dialysate, calcimimetic agent, non-calcium- phosphorus binding agents, parathyroidectomy and intravenous infusion of sodium thiosulfate could not vanish the mass. Finally, the lump was surgically removed. The treatment of tumoral calcinosis in the hemodialysis patient can provide a instruction for similar situations in clinical practice.

Objective:To explore the serotype, antibiotic resistance and β-lactamase gene of Haemophilus influenzae strains isolated from hospitalized children, thus providing reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods:A total of 148 Haemophilus influenzae strains collected from January 2016 to December 2018 in hospitalized children of Children′s Hospital, Capital Institute of Pediatrics were retrospectively analyzed.The serotype and genotype of Haemophilus influenzae strains were examined by slide agglutination test and PCR, respectively.The sensitivity of isolates to Ampicillin and other antimicrobials was detected by the E-test and disk diffusion methods.The β-lactamase phenotype was tested by nitrocefin disk method.The carrying of β-lactamase gene TEM-1 and ROB-1 were detected by PCR.The drug resistance rate was compared by χ2 test. Results:All the 148 strains were nontypeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi), and capsular gene was not amplified.The rate of resistance to Ampicillin, Ampicillin/Sulbactam, Cefuroxime, and Azithromycin were 68.9%(102/148 strains), 40.5%(60/148 strains), 53.4%(79/148 strains) and 56.1%(83/148 strains), respectively.The Haemophilus influenzae isolates showed the highest resistance rate to Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, which was up to 91.9%(136/148 strains). The sensitive rate of isolates to Ceftriaxone, Meropenem and Levofloxacin were all 100.0%(148/148 strains). The prevalence of β-lactamase was 64.8%(96/148 strains) in Haemophilus influenzae and the genotype was TEM-1.The drug resistance rates of β-lactamase positive strains to Ampicillin, Ampicillin/Sulbactam and Azithromycin were significantly higher than those of other strains( χ2=123.222, 27.973, 70.273, all P<0.01). Conclusions:The most prevalent serotype of Haemophilus influenzae is NTHi in children. Haemophilus influenzae carried TEM-1 gene had a high positive rate of β-lactamase production, which was the main mechanism of drug resistance to Ampicillin.Ceftriaxone and Meropenem were the most active agents against Haemophilus influenzae.

Functional experiment plays an important role in understanding the mechanisms of diseases and principles of diagnosis and treatment. It requires students to master basic skills of func-tional operation, and complicated disciplines of functional alteration as well. Thus functional experi-ment needs to be an open course. The use of the virtual reality (VR) and real-time recording tech-niques provides potential for this exploration. By the way of real-time recording system, HD video of experiment operation is played, which helps guiding students to learn basic experiment skills; while based on the development status of VR technology, it is more applicable for learning by oneself, such as preview before the class and review for the test, and furthermore, the advantage of VR technique will be more apparent, if the key development focuses on experiment extensions to disclose more compli-cated functional alterations. This new technique helps to improve teaching effects of functional experi-ment.
