Objective    To summarize our experience of surgical resection of multiple ground-glass opacity (GGO) in recent years. Methods    Clinical data of patients who underwent one-stage resections of multiple GGO from November 2015 to May 2019 in our hospital were collected, including 13 males and 52 females at an average age of 56.0±9.4 years. The clinical effects and pathological types of GGO were evaluated. Results    Time interval from first discovery to surgery was 8-1 447 (236.5±362.4) days. There were 48 patients with unilateral surgery and 17 patients with bilateral surgery during the same period. Except for 2 patients who underwent open thoracotomy due to total thoracic adhesions, other patients underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). The mean postoperative hospital stay was 12.2±4.3 days. No severe perioperative complication or death occurred. A total of 156 GGO lesions were resected, 80 lesions were pure GGO, including 58 (72.5%) malignant lesions and 22 (27.5%) benign lesions, with an average diameter of 7.7±3.3 mm and 5.5±2.6 mm, respectively. Another 76 lesions were mixed GGO, including 69 (90.8%) malignant lesions and 7 (9.2%) benign lesions, with an average diameter of 13.6±6.6 mm and 7.7±3.5 mm, respectively. Conclusion    Patients with multiple GGO should be treated with anti-inflammatory therapy firstly. When conservative treatment is ineffective and no benign outcomes are observed, surgical treatment should be considered. And when lung function is sufficient for patients to underwent surgeries, the simultaneous unilateral or bilateral thoracoscopic resection is suggested, and the sublobar resection or lobectomy methods can be adopted flexibly according to the clinical features of the lesion and the rapid pathological results, which will not increase the risk of postoperative complications. Otherwise, surgical resection should be given priority for pure GGO lesions with a diameter > 7.7 mm and mixed GGO lesions.

Objective:To investigate the effect of fluorofenidone on renal interstitial fibrosis in rats with unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) and to observe the effect of fluorofenidone on the expressions of collagen type Ⅰ (Col Ⅰ),collagen type Ⅲ (Col Ⅲ),α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA),connective tissue growth factor (CTGF),platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) in the renal tissues of UUO rats.Methods:Male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into a sham-operated group,a UUO group,and a flurofenidone group (n=5).UUO model was induced by ligating the left ureter in rats.The rats were treated with 125 mg/(kg.d) fluorofenidone by gastric gavage in the fluorofenidone group at 24 h before the operation,and the rats were treated with the identical dose of 0.5％ sodium carboxyl methyl cellulose (CMC-Na) in the other 2 groups.The rats were sacrificed at 14 days after UUO.Pathological changes of the renal tissue were observed by HE and Masson staining,the mRNA expressions of Col Ⅰ,Col Ⅲ,α-SMA,PDGF and CTGF were detected by real-time PCR,and the protein expressions of Col Ⅰ,Col Ⅲ,PDGF and CTGF were detected by immunohistochemical staining.Results:The renal interstitial damage index,relative collagen area and mRNA and protein expressions of Col Ⅰ and Col Ⅲ in the renal tissues of the rats in the UUO group significantly increased (P＜0.05),and fluorofenidone could reduce these indexes (P＜0.05).Compared with the sham-operated group,the protein expressions ofα-SMA,PDGF,CTGF and the mRNA expressions of PDGF and CTGF in the renal tissues of the rats in the UUO group were increased,but fluorofenidone could decrease the protein expressions of α-SMA,PDGF,CTGF and the mRNA expressions of PDGF and CTGF (P＜0.05).Conclusion:Fluorofenidone (125 mg/kg·d) could attenuate renal interstitial fibrosis through inhibition offibroblast proliferation,myofibroblastic activation,PDGF and CTGF expression.

Objective To research the application of "Z" chest drainage and modified incision and closure techniques for single-incision VATS.Methods 422 patients by uniportal VATS were divided into three groups:282 in experimental group("Z" Chest drainage with 16 F stomach tube),male 156,female 126,median age is 55 years old;100 in control group 1 (traditional chest drainage with 16 F stomach tube),male 58,female 42,median age is 53 years old;40 in control group 2 (traditional chest drainage with 34 F chest tube),male 24,female 16,median age is 52 years old.To compare the incidence rate of incision exudating、poor healing of incision and debridement between the 3 groups.Results The age,sex and surgical method of the three groups has no statistical significance.Incidence rate of incision exudating of experimental group,control group 1 and control group 2:5 (1.8％,5/282),5 (5.0％,5/100) and 6 (15.0％,6/40);Poor healing of incision of the three groups:0,1 (1.0％,1/100) and 3(7.5％,3/40);debridement of the three groups:0,0 and 3(7.5％,3/40).For the healing of incision,control group 1 was better than control group 2;and experimental group was better than control group 1.Conclusion "Z" chest drainage and modified incision and closure techniques decreased the incidence rate of incision exudate 、poor healing of incision and debridement,it could be useful to obtain a better cosmetic effect after single-incision VATS.

Objective    To develop a novel methylene blue staining technique to localize small esophageal leiomyomas ( small esophageal leiomyomas ( and 4 females with an average age of 51 years. We preoperatively injected 0.5–1.0 ml methylene blue in the submucosa adjacent to the tumors under the guidance of gastroscope. Then, we transferred the patients to the operating room. Results    Staining was successful in 9 patients. The unstained tumor was exposed after the blue-stained mediastinal pleura and overlying muscle were incised longitudinally during ideo-assisted thoracoscopic surgery via one utility port. No abnormalities were detected in the esophageal mucosa. No major complications, such as esophageal leakage or esophageal diverticulum occurred. Conclusion    Endoscopic methylene blue staining is safe and feasible for localizing small esophageal leiomyomas during video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery via one utility port. This method will enable enucleation precise and easy.

Objective To investigate the antimicrobial resistance profile of the clinical isolates collected from selected hospitals across China. Methods Twenty-nine general hospitals and five children's hospitals were involved in this program. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out according to a unified protocol using Kirby-Bauer method or automated systems. Results were interpreted according to CLSI 2017 breakpoints. Results A total of 190 610 clinical isolates were collected from January to December 2017, of which gram negative organisms accounted for 70.8％ (134 951/190 610) and gram positive cocci 29.2％ (55 649/190 610). The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains was 35.3％ in S. aureus (MRSA) and 80.3％ in coagulase negative Staphylococcus (MRCNS) on average. MR strains showed much higher resistance rates to most of the other antimicrobial agents than MS strains. However, 91.6％ of MRSA strains were still susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, while 86.2％ of MRCNS strains were susceptible to rifampin. No staphylococcal strains were found resistant to vancomycin. E. faecalis strains showed much lower resistance rates to most of the drugs tested (except chloramphenicol) than E. faecium. Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) was identified in both E. faecalis and E. faecium. The identified VRE strains were mainly vanA, vanB or vanM type based on phenotype or genotype. The proportion of PSSP or PRSP strains in the non-meningitis S.pneumoniae strains isolated from children decreased but the proportion of PISP strains increased when compared to the data of 2016. Enterobacteriaceae strains were still highly susceptible to carbapenems. Overall, less than 10％ of these strains (excluding Klebsiella spp.) were resistant to carbapenems. The prevalence of imipenem-resistant K. pneumoniae increased from 3.0％ in 2005 to 20.9％ in 2017, and meropenem-resistant K. pneumoniae increased from 2.9％ in 2005 to 24.0％ in 2017, more than 8-fold increase. About 66.7％ and 69.3％ of Acinetobacter (A. baumannii accounts for 91.5％) strains were resistant to imipenem and meropenem, respectively. Compared with the data of year 2016, P. aeruginosa strains showed decreasing resistance rate to carbapenems. Conclusions Bacterial resistance is still on the rise. It is necessary to strengthen hospital infection control and stewardship of antimicrobial agents. The communication between laboratorians and clinicians should be further improved in addition to surveillance of bacterial resistance.

TCM believes that physical tendons and bone are interdependent, keeping dynamic balance, and they influence each other pathologically. Physical tendons and bone balance is human spine physiological state. Physical tendons and bone imbalance is the important pathogenesis of spine and related diseases. The core of physical tendons and bone balance-regulating theory is the physique homology and syndrome differentiation and treatment. This article expounded from the above aspects in details.

Objective To investigate the resistance of Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) to vancomycin and linezolid in Sichuan Province, and provide reference for clinical anti-infection treatment.Methods S.aureus and methicillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA) from 71 hospitals in Sichuan Province in 2011-2015 were collected, minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC) values of vancomycin and linezolid against S.aureus and MRSA in each year were calculated.Results A total of 51 976 strains of S.aureus were collected in 5 years, 14 361 of which were MRSA, isolation rate of MRSA decreased from 36.02％ in 2011 to 25.56％ in 2015, which showed a downward trend (x2=160.72,P<0.05).From 2011 to 2015, MIC50 of vancomycin against S.aureus were 1, 0.5, 0.5, 1, and 1μg/mL respectively,MIC90 increased from 1μg/mL to 2μg/mL;the mean MIC50 of linezolid was 2μg/mL,MIC90 increased from 2μg/mL to 4μg/mL.Change in MIC50 and MIC90 of vancomycin against MRSA in 2011-2015 were obvious, which increased from 0.5, 1μg/mL to 2μg/mL respectively;the mean MIC50 of linezolid was 2μg/mL,MIC90 increased from 2μg/mL to 4μg/mL.Conclusion The isolates rate of MRSA had a decreasing trend,but there is a upward trend of MIC50 and MIC90 of vancomycin and linezolid against MRSA, bacterial resistance surveillance needs to be strengthened to provide evidence for rational clinical antimicrobial therapy.

Objective To investigate the security and efficacy of one stage and bilateral resection of thymic tissue and clearance of mediastinal fat by uniportal-video-assisted thoracic surgery(VATS) to cure patients with myasthenia gravis(MG).Methods A number of 131 patients with MG who underwent resection of thymic tissue and clearance of mediastinal fat by VATS in one single center from February 2009 to December 2013 were selected in this retrospective study.76 patients underwent unilateral resection of thymic tissue and clearance of mediastinal fat by three portal VATS from February 2009 to March 2012 and 55 patients underwent one stage and bilateral resection of thymic tissue and clearance of mediastinal fat by small uniportal-VATS from April 2012 to December 2013.The time for operation,the bleeding volume during operation,the volume of postoperative drainage and drainage time,the improvement of symptoms,the postoperative pain,hospital stays and the occurrence of myasthenia gravis crisis were compared between the two groups.Results The general condition and pathological type did not have significant statistical differences between the two groups.The operating time in the uniportal-VATS group was significantly longer than that in three portal VATS group,but the pain was lighter,and the hospital stay was shorter.There were no significant differences between groups in terms of blood loss,postoperative drainage time,and volume of drainage.The follow-up was from 32 to 90 months,and 118 (90.08％)patients completed the follow up.94.5 ％ of the patients in uniportalVATS group acquired complete stable remission(CSR),while it was 84.2％ in three portal VATS group(P ＜ 0.05),and the uniportal-VATS group had lower rate of myasthenic crisis (P ＜0.05).Conclusion One stage and bilateral resection of thymic tissue and clearance of mediastinal fat by small uniportal-VATS is safe and effective with shorter hospital stay and less pain,and it can get higher CSR and less myasthenic crisis,its efficacy is superior to traditional three portal VATS.
