ABSTRACT
Objective The drug resistance and risk factors of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infected in the pediatric ward of the hospital were analyzed to provide a scientific basis for the con-trol of MRSA paediatric infection .Methods Totally 306 strains of Staphylococcus aureus were isolated from the pediatric wards in the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University from July 2015 to June 2016 , the bacterial species identification and drug susceptibility tests were performed by MicroScan WalkAway 96SI and the statistical analysis was carried out by WHONET 5 .4 softwate .The clinical data of 306 children were infected with staphylococcus aureus collected by retrospective survey ,the risk factors of MRSA infection were analyzed by the method of χ2 test and non-condition Logistic regression .Results A total of 90 strains of M R-SA were detected ,with a detection rate of 29 .41％ .MRSA was mainly isolated from sputum ,accounting for 74 .44％ ,followed by blood ,accounting for 10 .0％ .MRSA was mainly resistant to amikacin ,ampicillin ,eryth-romycin ,clindamycin and other antimicrobial agents (P< 0 .05) .Age< 1 years ,venous catheterization ,me-chanical ventilation ,tracheal intubation ,ventilator ,stay in ICU ,hospitalization time >7 d ,use of corticoste-roids ,low albumin ,and antibiotic use time >7 d were the main risk factors of MRSA in children (P<0 .05) . Admission to NICU ,venous catheterization ,mechanical ventilation and tracheal intubation were independent risk factors .Conclusion MRSA isolated from pediatric wards is resistant to many kinds of antibiotics .Infec-tion with MRSA is related to many factors .Hospitals should take corresponding measures to reduce the inci-dence of M RSA infection .
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the drug resistance of multiple‐drug‐resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(MDR‐Ab) and its rela‐tive carbapenemases genes ,in order to provide references for rational use of antibacterial agents .Methods A total of 98 strains of Acinetobacter baumannii(Ab) were identified by using the MicroScan WalkAway96 automated microbial identification susceptibility testing system ,and the resistance genes ,including OXA‐23 ,OXA‐24 ,IMP ,VIM ,TEM and SHV ,were detected by using the poly‐merase chain reaction .DNA sequences of positive amplification products of the resistance gene were analysed .Results The drug re‐sistance rates of 98 strains of MDR‐Ab to penicillin class and cephalosporin class both were 100 .0% ,to imipenem and meropenem were 55 .1% and 54 .1% respectively ,to gentamicin ,amikacin and tobramycin were 100 .0% ,100 .0% and 87 .8% respectively ,to ciprofloxacin ,levofloxacin and gatifloxacin were 89 .8% ,91 .8% and 77 .6% respectively ,to sulfamethoxazole and rifampicin were 91 .8% and 100 .0% respectively ,to polymyxin B and polymyxin were 14 .3% and 11 .2% respectively ,to tetracycline ,minocycline and tigecycline were 100 .0% ,6 .1% and 4 .1% respectively .The results of resistance genes detection in 98 strains of MDR‐Ab showed that 70 strains carried TEM and OXA‐23 gene ,53 strains carried VIM gene ,41 strains carried IMP gene ,while OXA‐24 and SHV genes were not detected .DNA sequence analysis showed that the homology of OXA‐23 ,TEM ,IMP and VIM genes were 98% ,98% ,99% and 99% .Conclusion The condition of antibacterial resistance of MDR‐Ab in this area is very serious ,and TEM and OXA‐23 are the main drug resistance genes .Carrying multiple resistance genes is an important cause of MDR‐Ab resistance . The treatment of patients with Ab infection should be based on the results of drug sensitivity test for rational use of antibacterial a‐gents .
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the protein fingerprinting of carbapenems resistant and susceptible Acinetobacter baumannii (Ab) strains ,investigate the clinical value of affinity distance in carbapenems resistant strains .Methods A total of 22 carbapenems resistant Ab strains and 18 carbapenems susceptible Ab strains were collected ,and bacterial protein fingerprinting was detected by surface-enhanced laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (SELDI-TOF-MS) ,differentially expressed proteins was analyzed by Biomarker Wizard 3 .1 .Cluster analysis of differential expressed proteins was conducted on SPSS 19 .0 .Results The protein expression pattern of carbapenems resistant and sensitive Ab strains had significant difference (P< 0 .05) .Cluster anal-ysis showed carbapenems resistance Ab was given priority to with type A ,followed by type B .Conclusion The results of cluster a-nalysis carbapenems resistance of Ab protein fingerprinting could determine the distance of affinity relationship of Ab .It could pro-vide a theoretical basis for the infection and clinical epidemiology of Ab .
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To investigate the value of acute phase protein in the diagnosis and therapy for nosocomial infection monitoring. METHODS The levels of serum C-reactive protein(CRP),serum amyloid A(SAA),?_1-acid glycoprotein(AAG),and ?_1-antitrypsin(AAT) were measured in 71 gynecological patients with nosocomial infection during chemotherapy,Thirty normal controls and 33 chemotherapy patient controls were detected by nephelometry and compared with white blood cell counts. RESULTS The nosocomial infection rate of chemotherapy patients was 16.7%.Main pathogens were Gram-negative bacteria(60.6%).Fungi infection rate was 19.7%.The most frequent hospital infection sites were respiratory tract,gastrointestinal tract and wound.Compared with controls,the levels of serum CRP,SAA,AAG and AAT were significantly higher in chemotherapy patients with bacteria infection(P
