To understand the pathogenicity and drug resistance of swine-derived E.coli and its bio-logical characteristics in some areas in Hebei,E.coli was isolated and identified from diarrheal fe-ces of piglets collected from swine farms,and the isolated strains were subjected to drug sensitivity test,detection of the ability to form biofilm,pathogenicity test,virulence gene test,drug resistance gene test,and identification of phylogenetic subgroups.The results showed that a total of 35 patho-genic E.coli strains were isolated from the feces of diarrheic piglets,and most of the isolates were multidrug-resistant,and were resistant to at least three antibiotics,including amoxicillin(88.57%),ampicillin(88.57%),doxycycline(88.75%),sulfisoxazole(77.17%),lincomycin(100%),and chloramphenicol(100%);the isolates were severely resistant.The isolates all carried virulence genes,with a total of five virulence genes detected,namely,EAST1(77.14%),eaeA(17.14%),stx2e(5.71%),LT(2.86%),and STb(2.86%),and the isolates also carried multi-re-sistance genes,with a total of five virulence genes detected,namely,bla TEM-1(65.71%),bla CTX-M(20.00%),tetA(82.86%),tetB(14.29%),aadA2(17.14%),aac(6')-Ib(14.29%),qnrS(17.14%),sul 1(40.00%),sul2(34.29%),and floR(60.00%);the phylogenetic grouping showed that the isolates had a high proportion of group B1 and group A;and all 35 isolates showed differ-ent pathogenicity after infection of mice.This study provides a reference for the selection of effec-tive therapeutic drugs and the development of prevention and control programs for swine-origin pathogenic E.coli in Hebei Province.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and therapeutic effect of perioral myoclonia with absences (PMA), in order to improve the clinicians′ understanding of the disease.Methods:The clinical manifestations during seizures, as well as interictal and ictal electroencephalogram (EEG) features of 3 PMA patients admitted to the Epilepsy Unit, Neurology Center, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University from May to October 2024 were analyzed. The clinical manifestations, EEG characteristics, differential diagnosis, treatment experience of PMA patients were summarized by retrospective analysis combined with previous literature review.Results:The onset age of these 3 PMA cases was 15, 15, and 7 years, respectively. The prominent manifestation of seizure was perioral myoclonus without disturbance of consciousness. The duration of seizures was brief, less than 10 seconds. PMA can occur several times a day and was prone to present as continuous state of perioral myoclonus. Three patients had rare generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS). The seizures could be controlled by sodium valproate, lamotrigine, levetiracetam, or combined treatment. Fifteen literatures about PMA were retrieved (4 in Chinese and 11 in English). A total of 31 patients (including these 3 patients) were included in the study, of whom 17 were males and 14 were females. The onset age was from 9 months to 34 [7.63 (2.19, 11.00)] years. Perioral myoclonus with varying degrees of disturbance of consciousness was the main seizure type, and 12 patients exhibited continuous state of perioral myoclonus, 24 patients had GTCS. Eight patients had a history of fever convulsion, 6 patients had mental or learning disabilities, and 11 patients had a family history of epilepsy or febrile convulsion. The ictal EEG showed around 3 Hz generalized spike-wave/multiple spike-wave discharges accompanied with synchronous myoelectric bursts. There were no specific abnormalities in physical examination of nervous system and cranial imaging in all the patients. Ten patients were initially diagnosed as focal epilepsy. Nine patients′ seizures were increased or worsened due to improper medication. Valproate, lamotrigine and levetiracetam were the main treatments of PMA, and the seizures of 21 patients were effectively controlled.Conclusions:PMA is clinically characterized by perioral myoclonia with varying degrees of disturbance of consciousness and is easy to be misdiagnosed as focal epilepsy, so it is necessary to use video EEG combined with synchronous electromyography to confirm the diagnosis. PMA should be treated with broad-spectrum antiseizure drugs.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the stimulating effect of instilled sodium ozagrel for injection on rabbits'auricular vein.METHODS:Rabbits'auricular veins were assigned to receive sodium ozagrel for injection(19.0 mL?kg~(-1))or 5% glucose injection(19.0 mL?kg~(-1))q.d for 7 days by instillation.The rabbits were executed at 24 h and 72 h respectively after the last infusion,with rabbits'auricular blood vessel samples taken at the distance of 1 cm and 5 cm distal from injection site for histopathologic examination.RESULTS:Histopathologically,the rabbits treated by sodium ozagrel for injection(19.0 mL?kg~(-1))or 5%glucose injection showed similar changes in the skin and veins of the injection sites,and there were no abnormalities such as congestion,edema,induration and necrosis in both groups.CONCLUSION:No obvious stimulating effect on rabbits'auricular vein blood vessel was noted for sodium ozagrel for injection.
