Objective To investigate the combined effect of berberine （BBR） and fluconazole （FLC） on FLC-tolerant Candida albicans in vitro. Methods The sensitivity of 8 strains of Candida albicans to FLC was assessed by determining their minimal inhibitory concentration （MIC） using broth microdilution method. FLC-tolerant strains were screened from FLC-sensitive strains by disk diffusion assay. The effect of BBR combined with FLC on FLC-tolerant Candida albicans was investigated by disk diffusion assay. Results All eight strains of Candida albicans exhibited sensitivity to FLC, with minimal inhibitory concentration （MIC₅₀） values below 0.5 μg/ml. Strains Y0109, 9821, 7879, 7654, and 9296 displayed colony growth in the inhibition zone after 48 h of constant temperature incubation, indicating FLC tolerance. When strains Y0109 and 9821 were subjected to a combination of BBR and FLC, the number of colonies within the inhibition zone decreased progressively with the increase of BBR concentration following a 48 h constant temperature culture. The inhibition zone became clear with the increasing of BBR concentration and increased with the increase of FLC loading, which showed a dose-dependent relationship. Conclusion The BBR combined with FLC demonstrated efficacy against FLC-tolerant strains.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between hippocampal macrophage polarization and perioperative neurocognitive disorders in mice with tibial fractures.Methods:Forty-five clean-grade healthy male C57/BL6 mice, aged 5-7 months, were divided into 3 groups ( n=15 each) using the random number table method: control group (group C), anesthesia group (group A) and anesthesia surgery group (group AS). Group C received no treatment. Group A was anesthetized with isoflurane inhaled for 15 min. In AS group, intramedullary nail fixation of tibial fracture was performed under anesthesia through inhalation of 2% isoflurane. Morris water maze test and open field test were performed before anesthesia/on 1 day before surgery and after anesthesia/on 1, 3 and 7 days after operation. Five mice were randomly selected after the behavioral experiments were completed at each time point, and hippocampal tissues were taken after the animals were sacrificed for determination of the expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), IL-6, chemokine (c-c motif) ligand 12 (CCL2), CCL5, CCL8, iNOS and Arg-1 mRNA (by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction), expression of iNOS and Arg-1 proteins (by Western blot), and percentage of CD11b, CD45, CD86 and CD206 cells in hippcampal area (by immunofluorescence staining). Results:Compared with group C, the escape latency was significantly prolonged after operation, the number of crossing the platform was reduced after operation, the expression of TNF-ɑ, IL-6, CCL5 and CCL8 mRNA and iNOS protein and mRNA was up-regulated, the expression of Arg-1 protein and mRNA was down-regulated, the percentages of CD11b + CD45 + cells and CD11b + CD86 + cells in the hippocampus were increased, and the percentages of CD11b + CD206 + cells were decreased in AS group ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group A ( P>0.05). Compared with group A, the escape latency was significantly prolonged after surgery, the frequency of crossing the platform was reduced after surgery, the expression of iNOS mRNA was up-regulated, the percentages of CD11b + CD45 + cells and CD11b + CD86 + cells were increased, and the percentages of CD11b + CD206 + cells were decreased in AS group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The occurrence of PND may be related to increased polarization to M1 macrophages in the hippocampus and decreased polarization to M2 macrophages in mice with tibial fracture, which further leads to central inflammatory responses.

【Objective】 To compare the clinical efficacy of minimally invasive percutaneous approach with Wiltse approach in the treatment of thoracolumbar fracture without neurological deficit in young and middle-aged patients. 【Methods】 A prospective study was conducted in 108 patients with thoracolumbar fracture without neurological symptoms treated in Department of Orthopedics， The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University from March 2015 to March 2018. We randomly assigned 54 patients to minimally invasive percutaneous approach group （Group A） and 54 ones to Wiltse approach group （Group B）. We compared the operation time， intraoperative blood loss， incision length， the number of intraoperative fluoroscopy times， and postoperative hospital stay of Group A and Group B. We also compared the VAS scores of the two groups before and 3 days after surgery and at each review， the vertebral frontal height compression ratio and Cobb Angle before and immediately after surgery， 3 months 1 year and 3 years after surgery， and ODI index before surgery and 3 months， 1 year and 3 years after surgery. 【Results】 All the 108 patients were followed up. There were no significant differences in operation time， intraoperative blood loss or postoperative hospital stay between the two groups （P>0.05）. The number of intraoperative fluoroscopy times was significantly smaller in Group B than in Group A （P<0.05）， and the incision length was shorter than that in Group A （P<0.05）. The two groups did not significantly differ in VAS score or ODI index before operation （P>0.05）， after operation， or at follow-up， while the anterior vertebral body height ratio and Cobb angle were significantly lower in Group B than in Group A （P<0.0125）. 【Conclusion】 Minimally invasive percutaneous approach and Wiltse approach are both safe and effective in the treatment of thoracolumbar fracture without neurological deficit. However， the number of intraoperative fluoroscopy times of Wiltse approach was significantly reduced， the incision length was smaller than that of the percutaneous pedicle group， and the postoperative anterior vertebral compression rate and Cobb Angle were lower than those of the percutaneous group， indicating better clinical efficacy.

Objective:To explore the role of WeChat platform combined with flipped classroom in improving the working ability of resident doctors in the fever clinic.Methods:A total of 118 resident doctors who rotated in the fever clinic of department of emergency medicine were selected as the study subjects, and they were randomized into experimental group and control group, with 59 people in each group. The experimental group used WeChat platform and flipped classroom teaching, and the control group used traditional teaching. The results of theory assessment, operation performance and questionnaire survey were compared between the two groups. SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for t test and chi-square test. Results:There was no significant difference in theoretical test scores between the experimental group and the control group ( P>0.05). The experimental group scored (91.61±3.01) points and the control group scored (84.52±4.02) points in operational assessment, with significant differences ( t=-10.85, P<0.05). The results of the satisfaction survey showed that there was no significant difference in teaching time distribution between the two groups, and the experimental group was better than the control group in any other aspects. Conclusion:The use of WeChat platform combined with flipped classroom during the COVID-19 epidemic can improve the level of operational skills of the resident doctors to wear or take off the protective clothing and collect nasopharyngeal swabs, help residents to avoid the infections, and improve the level of daily diagnosis and treatment of fever clinic.

Objective To study the present situation and influence factors of pulmonary rehabilitation among COPD patients in community.Methods The present situation of pulmonary rehabilitation was investigated using questionnaire in 201 COPD patients,including one community in Guangzhou and three communities in Qingyuan,and the influencing factors were analyzed by Logistic regression.Results Total of 201 COPD patients,20.4％ COPD patients could insist on oxygen therapy,just one patient's oxygen time more than 15 hours;40.8％ COPD patients would increase the oxygen flow if exacerbation;17.9％ COPD patients could insist on respiratory exercising,and 75.5％ COPD patients took exercise in wrong way.50.7％ COPD patients took exercise in their life.3-4 times in hospital with a high rate of home oxygen therapy.Farmers and the course more than ten years with a high rate of exercising.Conclusions The cognition of COPD patients about pulmonary rehabilitation is poor,and also the compliance of pulmonary rehabilitation exercise is bad.The medical staff should strengthen the education of pulmonary rehabilitation of COPI patients in community,and pay attention to patients' hospitalization,occupation,and course of disease.

OBJECTIVETo explore the impact of interleukin-18 (IL-18) single nucleotide polymorphisms on outcomes of hematologic malignancies with HLA-matched sibling donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).

METHODSSingle- nucleotide polymorphisms in IL-18 promoter was detected by PCR-sequence-specific primer analysis (PCR-SSP) in 93 recipients and their HLA matched sibling donors. Hematopoietic reconstitution, incidences of graft versus host disease (GVHD) and infections, transplant related mortality (TRM), and disease free survival (DFS) were analyzed.

RESULTSIn comparison with -137 G/C+C/C donor genotype, patients with -137 G/G donor genotype had shorter duration of neutrophil recovery [15(11-23) days vs 17(11-24) days, P=0.01], higher incidence of extensive chronic GVHD (20.6% vs 3.3%, P=0.029), but no difference in the interval of platelet recovery [20(11-46) days vs 20(7-38) days, P=0.844]. The incidence of extensive chronic GVHD in -607 C/C donor genotype (31.6%) was significantly higher than that (10.8%) in C/A + A/A donor genotype (P=0.024). Recipients with -607 C/C genotype also had higher incidence (33.3%) of extensive chronic GVHD than those with C/A+A/A genotype (10.7%, P=0.016). There were no differences in acute GVHD, TRM, and DFS between different genotypes.

CONCLUSIONIL-18 -137 G homozygous genotype in donor facilitated neutrophil reconstitution, but increased the risk of extensive chronic GVHD in patients with allo-HSCT.
