ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens cultured from the sputum of hospitalized patients with lower respiratory infection in acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) .Methods To i‐dentify the germiculture and test the drug susceptibility of the sputum or respiratory secretion isolated from the bronchial brush of 262 hospitalized AECOPD patients in People′s Hospital of Jiangxi Province from Janurary 2013 to December 2014 and analyze the results .Results Among all the AECOPD patients ,215 cases with positive sputum culture ,281 sputum pathogens were isolated . Gram‐negative bacilli were found in 190(67 .6% ) .Gram‐positive aureus were detected in 76(27 .1% ) .Fungus pathogens occurred in 15(5 .3% ) .The top six pathogenic bacteria were acinetobacter baumannii ,escherichia coli ,klebsiella pneumonia ,pseudomonas aeruginosa ,staphylococcus aureus ,streptococcus pneumonia .Drug susceptibility results showed that the drug resistance of acineto‐bacter baumannii was the strongest .Except that the drug resistance rate of cefoperazone/sulbactam and levofloxacin were less than 50 .0% ,the others were no less than 75 .0% .The drug resistance rate of escherichia coli and klebsiella pneumoniae to ampicillin , ampicillin sulbactam ,cefazolin ,ceftriaxone ,cefotetan ,gentamycin ,ofloxacin ,ciprofloxacin ,and compound sulfamethoxazole trime‐thoprim were no less than 70 .0% .The drug resistance rate of staphylococcus aureus to penicillin G ,oxacillin ,erythromycin ,clinda‐mycin were 100% .The drug resistance rate of streptococcus pneumoniae to erythromycin ,clindamycin ,tetracycline ,sulfamethox‐azole trimethoprim were greater than 75 .0% .Conclusion Gram‐negative bacilli are the main pathogenic bacterium in the AECOPD patients with lower respiratory infection .The key of treatment is to pay more attention to the bacterial culture and drug sensitive test ,use antibiotics reasonably according to the results of drug sensitive experiment .
ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the characteristics of renal papillary calcareous deposits and their role in the formation of calcium oxalate kidney stone, and to explore the formation mechanism of renal calcareous deposits. Methods: A total of 21 patients with calcium oxalate kidney stones were included in the present study. The components of the calculi were detected by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The calcific plaques were observed and the renal papilla biopsy specimens were obtained during PCNL. The specimens were then subjected to alizarin bordeaux staining and light microscopic examination. The expression of osteopontin, BMP-2, and type II collagen in the kidneys was examined by immunohistochemistry. Seven resected renal specimens from patients with non-urolithiasis served as control. Results: Renal papillary calcific plaques were found in all the 21 patients with renal calculi. Local calcareous deposits were found in the renal interstitium around tubular basement membrane and extended toward the mucous membrane in the renal papillas. Microscopically, once the calcareous deposits pierced into the collection system, tiny stones could be seen growing on the deposits. Immunohistochemistristry showed the renal tissues of renal stone patients and normal renal tissues both expressed osteopontin, but not BMP-2 or type II collagen. Conclusion: Renal papillary calcareous deposits may be one of the initiating nidi for kidney stone formation and they may not be an osteoblastic reaction resembling arteriosteogenesis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the analytical method for fingerprint of Aristolochia manshuriensis by HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS,which can be used as the basis for quality control of the drug and for the further studies on kidney toxicity metabolite.Methods Samples A.manshuriensis from different habitats were extracted by 75% methanol and analyzed by HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS,whose chromatographic fingerprints were established.Two ways to calculate the similarity were selected to compare the results by determining the common peaks.Results There were 30 main characteristic components in A.manshuriensis.The HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS fingerprint of the 30 common peaks was established preliminarily.The samples of A.manshuriensis from different habitats was found having a good similarity,and the range of similarities for 24 balches of A.manshuriensis were 0.871—0.998.Conclusion The method is reliable,accurate,and of good stability,and can be used for the quality control and variety identification of A.manshuriensis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To establish a method for determining cinnamaldehyde in Zegui Longshuang Capsules. Methods A C18 column was used with Acetonitrile-Water (30∶70) as the mobile phase,and the detection wavelength was at 290 nm. Results The calibration curve of cinnamaldehyde was linear from 0.010 ?g to 0.507 ?g,and r=0.999 9. The average recovery was 98.55 %with RSD being 2.06 %. Conclusion This method is proved to be accurate and reliable,and can be used to control the quality of Zegui Longshuang Capsules.
