ABSTRACT
@#Abstract: Objective To understand the distribution and drug resistance of common pathogens of fungal bloodstream infection in Sichuan, and to provide reference for clinicians to empirically treat fungal bloodstream infection. Methods From November 1, 2019 to December 31, 2020, fungal strains isolated from blood culture of patients diagnosed with bloodstream infection in 19 tertiary first-class general hospitals in Sichuan Province were collected for mass spectrometry identification and drug susceptibility, and the results were statistically analyzed, along with a retrospective analysis of clinical data. Results A total of 255 fungal strains were received and identified by mass spectrometry, 215 strains of Candida spp (84.3%), 28 strains of Cryptococcus neoformans (11.0%), 4 strains of Talaromyces marneffei (1.6%) and 8 strains of others (3.1%). Among the Candida spp 90 strains of Candida albicans, 39 strains of Candida parapsilosis complex, 36 strains of Candida glabrata, 33 strains of Candida tropicalis, 8 strains of Candida guilliermondii, and 9 strains of other Candida. In the department, the ICU was predominant, accounting for 35.7%. The top four Candida (Candida albicans, Candida parapsilosis complex, Candida glabrata, Candida tropicalis) were analyzed for drug sensitivity, Candida albicans and Candida parapsilosis complex group were more sensitive to antifungal drugs, the sensitivity rates of Candida albicans to fluconazole, voriconazole, anidulafungin, caspofungin, micarafungin were 89.2%, 92.8%, 97.6%, 97.6%, 96.4%, respectively. The sensitivity rates of Candida parapsilosis to fluconazole and voriconazole were 89.7% and 94.9%, and to anidulafungin, caspofungin and micafungin were all 100%. Echinocandins had stronger antibacterial activity against Candida spp., Candida parapsilosis complex and Candida tropicalis had 100% sensitivity to echinocandins, Candida albicans had more than 95% sensitivity to echinocandins, and Candida glabrata had about 90% sensitivity to echinocandins. Candida tropicalis was less sensitive to fluconazole and voriconazole with 66.7% and 54.5%, and the sensitivity of Candida glabrata to fluconazole was mainly concentrated in susceptible dose dependent (SDD), accounting for 91.4%. The four Candida species did not show resistance to amphotericin B, all of them showed wild-type strains, Candida tropicalis showed the highest non-wild-type rate to posaconazole and itraconazole with 21.2% and 36.4%, and the drug sensitivity results of Cryptococcus neoformans showed that 4 out of 23 strains showed resistance to amphotericin B (non-wild-type) and 3 strains showed resistance to fluconazole (non-wild-type). Conclusions The fungus of bloodstream infection is mainly Candida spp.. Among of them, Candida albicans accounts for the highest percentage, echinocandins have good antibacterial effect on Candida, Candida is sensitive to amphotericin B as wild type, but Candida tropicalis has slightly higher resistance rate to fluconazole and voriconazole, and the non-wild type rate of Cryptococcus neoformans to amphotericin B is increasing, and clinicians should pay high attention to the rational use of antifungal drugs.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the clinical implementation strategy analysis about fast track surgery ( FTS) used in right co-lon cancer radical.Methods 72 patients with right colon cancer laparoscopic treatment in our hospital from June , 2013 to Decem-ber, 2014 were randomly selected and divided into observation group ( n=36 ) and control group ( n =36 ) by numeric randomized method.Observation group adopted treatments based on FTS while control group treated with conventional laparoscopic radical prosta-tectomy.Stress reaction, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, exhaust time, defecation time, stop the infusion time, drainage a-mount and postoperative drainage tube root out time, postoperative hospital stay and postoperative complications of two groups were sta-tistically analyzed.Results Preoperative blood cortisol, fasting blood glucose, serum IL-6 and plasma CRP level of two groups, op-eration time and compare differences of 2 groups had no statistical significance (p>0.05).Postoperative 24 h blood cortisol, fasting blood glucose, serum IL-6 and plasma CRP level of two groups were higher than that of preoperative.Postoperative 24 h blood corti-sol, fasting blood glucose, serum IL-6 and plasma CRP level of observation group were lower than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05).In observation group, the exhaust time, defecation time, drainage tube root out time, stop infusion time and postoperative hospital stay of observation group were (43.62 ±8.21) h, (50.42 ±6.85) h, (5.51 ± 1.08), (4.12 ±0.85)d and (5.42 ±1.13)d respectively, which were shorter than the (56.65 ±8.26)h , (64.78 ±8.26) h, (9.53 ±4.13)d, (7.78 ±1.43) d and (10.62 ±2.14)d of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (p <0.05).Rainage amount of observation group[(602.54 ±165.78) ml] was less than that of the control group[(1265.28 ±572.94) ml];And the total complications incidence of observation group (8.33%) was lower than that of the control group (25.00%), and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.05).Conclusion Implementation of laparoscopic treatment based on FTS used in right colon cancer radical can effectively promote patients recovery and reduce complications.thus it is worthy of clinical promotion use.
ABSTRACT
Here we report a systematic method for constructing a large scale kinetic metabolic model and its initial application to the modeling of central metabolism of Methylobacterium extorquens AM1, a methylotrophic and environmental important bacterium. Its central metabolic network includes formaldehyde metabolism, serine cycle, citric acid cycle, pentose phosphate pathway, gluconeogensis, PHB synthesis and acetyl-CoA conversion pathway, respiration and energy metabolism. Through a systematic and consistent procedure of finding a set of parameters in the physiological range we overcome an outstanding difficulty in large scale kinetic modeling: the requirement for a massive number of enzymatic reaction parameters. We are able to construct the kinetic model based on general biological considerations and incomplete experimental kinetic parameters. Our method consists of the following major steps: (1) using a generic enzymatic rate equation to reduce the number of enzymatic parameters to a minimum set while still preserving their characteristics; (2) using a set of steady state fluxes and metabolite concentrations in the physiological range as the expected output steady state fluxes and metabolite concentrations for the kinetic model to restrict the parametric space of enzymatic reactions; (3) choosing enzyme constants K's and K'(eqS) optimized for reactions under physiological concentrations, if their experimental values are unknown; (4) for models which do not cover the entire metabolic network of the organisms, designing a dynamical exchange for the coupling between the metabolism represented in the model and the rest not included.

Two isomers of nitrochlorobenzene (o-, and p-NCB) were treated by a Pd/Fe catalyst in aqueous solutions through catalytic amination and dechlorination. Nitrochlorobenzenes are rapidly converted to form chloroanilines (CAN) first through an amination process, and then rapidly dechlorinated to become aniline (AN) and Cl(-), without the involvement of any other intermediate reaction products. The amination and dechlorination reaction are believed to take place predominantly on the surface site of the Pd/Fe catalysts. The dechlorination rate of the reductive degradation of the two isomers of nitrochlorobenzene (o-, and p-NCB) in the presence of Pd/Fe as a catalyst was measured experimentally. In all cases, the reaction rate constants were found to increase with the decrease in the Gibbs free energy (correlation with the activation energy) of NCBs formation; the activation energy of each dechlorination reaction was measured to be 95.83 and 77.05 kJ/mol, respectively for o- and p-NCB. The results demonstrated that p-NCBs were reduced more easily than o-NCBs.
