ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate antimicrobial resistance of Escherichia coli (E.coli)and Klebsiella pneumoniae (K.pneumoniae),antimicrobial use density(AUD),as well as relation between antimicrobial resistance and AUD in a ter-tiary first-class hospital.Methods Antimicrobial resistance rates of clinically-isolated E.coli and K.pneumoniae,AUD of carbapenems and quinolones,as well as relation between resistance and AUD in 2013-2015 were statistically analyzed. Results Correlation analysis of antimicrobial resistance of bacteria and AUD showed that the decrease in resistance rate of E.coli to levofloxacin was related to the decrease in the use density of quinolones(r=0.61,P=0.03);increase in resist-ance rate of K.pneumoniae to imipenem was related to the increase in the use density of carbapenems(r=0.78,P<0.01). Conclusion Antimicrobial use is one of the causes of bacterial resistance,management on antimicrobial use needs to be strengthened to reduce the threat of bacterial resistance to human health.
ABSTRACT
This study was aimed to reveal the material basis on different diseases of the same syndrome damp-heat syndrome from the level of metabonomics.The typical damp-heat syndrome patients diagnosed as chronic viral hepatitis B,non-alcoholic fatty liver disease,or chronic glomerulonephritis were included,with 30 cases in each disease.There were 30 healthy volunteers in the control group.The serum samples were detected by UPLC-QTOFMS and GC-TOFMS.And then,the results were analyzed by variance analysis in order to find out the generality and specificity of metabolic material in three different diseases with damp-heat syndrome.The results showed that through comparisons of different diseases with damp-heat syndrome,as well as the healthy group as control,it was revealed that inosine,uridine,aspartic acid,oleic acid glyceride and lactate were the same substances of three diseases of damp-heat syndrome.It was concluded that based on metabonomics,as for three different diseases with damp-heat syndrome,there were different substances among different diseases,but common substances related to damp-heat syndrome.Thus,it provided objective evidences for the theory of different diseases of the same syndrome in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) from the level of metabonomics.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: Duplicating the classical alcoholic hepatic injury model, to provide an ideal animal model for research on prevention and treatment of hepatic injury. METHODS: According to the prescription of Lieber-DeCarli, the same calorie fluid animal feed, which contained ethanol or non-ethanol, was prepared. Twenty-three rats were divided into normal control group (n=5), control liquid diet group (n=9), ethanol liquid diet group (n=9). Rats in the normal control group were fed normal diet, and rats in the control liquid diet group and ethanol liquid diet group were fed the corresponding diet for eight weeks. The pathologic changes of hepatic tissue were observed. The activities of the serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), the liver tissue gamma-glutamyltransferase (gamma-GT), the content of triglyceride (TG), and the lipid peroxidation by-products were assayed. RESULTS: Compared to the normal control and the control liquid diet groups, the activities of ALT, AST, and gamma-GT, and the lipid peroxidation by-products increased significantly in the ethanol liquid diet group. The pathological changes of cellular swelling and fatty degeneration in the ethanol liquid diet group were severe. CONCLUSION: Alcoholic hepatic injury model can be successfully duplicated by Lieber-DeCarli prescription.
