ObjectiveTo evaluate the dynamic disinfection effect of the upper-room 222 nm ultraviolet radiation on the air in different areas of the emergency department, and to provide references for a new solution of air disinfection that man-machine coexisted in the medical and healthcare institutions. MethodsThe upper-room 222 nm ultraviolet radiation air sterilizers were installed at a height of 2.3‒2.6 m from the ground in the observation room, computed tomography (CT) scanning room, rescue room and consulting room of the emergency department in Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University . The test area was divided into a 222 nm ultraviolet group and a control group according to whether the 222 nm ultraviolet germicidal air disinfection was conducted or not. The experimental group started air disinfection at8:00 a.m., and the air sampling was conducted from 9:00 a.m. to 16:00 p.m., with a 10 min sampling interval of every 1 hour. While the control group only collected air sample with the same air sampling method used in the experimental group, without air disinfection. The air microbial sampler with six-level sieve impingement was used for the air sampling, and the differences in the total number of airborne bacterial colonies were compared between the two groups. ResultsA total of 128 air samples were collected in the trial, of which 64 were from the experimental group and 64 from the control group. The total number of airborne bacterial colonies in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group (all P<0.001), and was maintained at a lower level throughout the entire period. The killing rate of 222 nm ultraviolet radiation to airborne microorganisms was approximately 55.76% to 76.33% in different sampling areas. The qualified rates of the total number of dynamic airborne bacterial colonies in the observation room, rescue room and consulting room were improved from 12.50%, 37.50% and 25.00% to 81.25%, 100.00% and 100.00%, respectively (all P<0.001). Over 62.50% of the time, the air quality in the consulting room and CT room in the 222 nm ultraviolet group met the environment standards for airborne bacterial colony criteria of class Ⅰ or class Ⅱ. ConclusionThe upper-room222 nm ultraviolet radiation germicidal disinfection can effectively reduce the total number of airborne bacterial colonies and improve the environment for emergency department, and the continuous using of it is helpful for keeping the air safe and clean.

Objective To investigate microRNA expression profiles of colonic cancer without lymph node metastasis and identify the specific microRNAs associated with carcinogenesis of colon.Methods Cancerous and para-cancerous tissues (5 cm from cancer tissues of the colon) confirmed without lymph node metastasis were collected from 3 patients. The microRNAs were extracted and isolated by mirVana RNA kit. Hybridizations were made by applying the microRNAs to Agilent microRNA microarray. Data analysis was done by software of Feacture Extraction. The discovered microRNAs were confirmed by real time PCR assay. Results Twelve out of 14 microRNAs associated with colonic cancer were up-regulated in colonic tissues. They were miR-106b, miR-135b,miR-18a,miR-18b,miR-196b, miR-19a, miR-224, miR-335, miR-424, miR-20a' , miR-301b and miR-374a. The rest two of miR-378 and miR 378* were down-regulated. Two up-regulated microRNAs (miR-18a and miR-135b) were detected in 3 pairs of cancerous and para-cancerous tissues. The expression level of miR-18a and miR-135b were accordant with the results of real time PCR.Conclusions microRNA.such as miR-106b,miR-135b.miR-18a.miR-18b,miR-196b,ect,were differentially expressed between cancerous and para-cancerous tissues.Many of these target genes are supposed to participate in the process of multiple tunmorgenesis.These microRNAs play an important role in the carcinogenesis of colon.
