Analysis on risk factors of nosocomial multi-drug resistant bacteria infection of wounds in orthopedic trauma patients / 中华创伤杂志

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of multi-drug resistant organism（MDRO）infection in orthopedic trauma patients.Methods:A retrospective case series study was made on clinical data of 95 orthopedic patients with in-hospital wound infection admitted to West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2020 to December 2020，including 71 males and 24 females at age of 14-70 years［（42.6 ± 13.8）years］. MDRO infection occurred in 38 patients（DRO group），while not in 57 patients（non-MDRO group）. Etiological characteristics of wound infections were observed. Univariate analysis was used to compare variables between the two groups，including baseline data（gender，age，length of hospital stay，chronic comorbidity）and injury as well as hospitalization information（transfer from another hospital，emergency admission，time from injury to first treatment，open injury，combination with fracture，wound contamination，depth of wound，ICU stay，number of operations，cumulative operation time，type of incision，length of hospital stay before diagnosis of infection，type of antibiotics used，usage of hormones/immunosuppressive agents，level of hemoglobin/serum albumin/blood glucose on admission）. Binary Logistic regression was used to analyze independent risk factors for MDRO infection.Results:A total of 119 pathogenic bacteria were detected on the wound，including 21 gram-positive cocci（18%），91 gram-negative bacilli（76%）and 7 others（6%）. Top five strains were Acinetobacter baumannii，Enterobacter cloacae，Escherichia coli，Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Univariate analysis showed the two groups had significant differences in terms of length of hospital stay，wound contamination，ICU stay，length of hospital stay before diagnosis of infection，type of antibiotics used and levels of hemoglobin and serum albumin on admission（ P < 0.05），but not in gender，age，hypertension，diabetes，transfer from another hospital and emergency admission（ P > 0.05）. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed MDRD infection was obviously correlated with the long hospital stay（ OR = 1.033， 95%CI 1.005-1.061， P < 0.05），time from injury to first treatment over 6 hours（ OR = 4.282， 95%CI 1.174-15.616， P < 0.05），types of antibiotics used ≥ 3（ OR = 7.486， 95%CI 2.451-22.863， P < 0.05）and low level of hemoglobin on admission（ OR = 0.973， 95%CI 0.962-0.985， P < 0.05）. Conclusions:For orthopedic trauma patients，MDRO infection is independently associated with long hospital stay，time from injury to first treatment，type of antibiotics use and level of hemoglobin on admission，suggesting that decreased length of hospitalization，shortened time of first wound treatment，individualized and rational usage of antibiotics and timely correction of anemia are important measures to prevent MDRO infection.

Inhibition of Microcystis aeruginosa by Bacillus subtilis fmb60 non-ribosome peptide metabolites / 生物工程学报

Microcystis aeruginosa, a type of algal bloom microalgae, is widely distributed in water, causing serious deteriorated effects on humans and the ecological environment. As a biocontrol microorganism, Bacillus subtilis can synthesize various bioactive substances through non-ribosomal peptide synthetase, to inhibit the growth of M. aeruginosa. Thus, it is imperative to investigate the non-ribosomal peptide (NRP) metabolites of B. subtilis fmb60. Three NRP metabolites from B. subtilis fmb60 including bacillibactin, surfactin and fengycin were extracted and identified by genome mining technology. The growth inhibition of M. aeruginosa was studied by adding various concentrations of NRP metabolites. The half-effect concentration value (EC50.4 d) of M. aeruginosa was 26.5 mg/L after incubation for 4 days. With the increasing concentration, the inhibitory effects of NRP metabolites of B. subtilis fmb60 on M. aeruginosa was enhanced significantly. Compared with the control group, with the addition of 50 mg/L NRP metabolites to the M. aeruginosa, the content of Fv/Fm, Fv/Fo and Yield parameter after cultured for 4 days were decreased by 2.8%, 1.7% and 2.0%, respectively. Those findings indicate that the NRP metabolites of B. subtilis fmb60 can significantly inhibit the photosynthesis and metabolism of M. aeruginosa, which provides a theoretical foundation for the development of biological algae inhibitor of B. subtilis.

Gamma oscillations of cognitive dysfunction in chronic insomnia patients with anxiety and depression / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of gamma oscillation in chronic insomnia patients with anxiety and depression, and to investigate its underlying neural mechanism.Methods:According to the anxiety and depression scores, the subjects with chronic insomnia who met the diagnostic criteria were divided into chronic insomnia with anxiety and depression group ( n=19) and chronic insomnia group ( n=13). Healthy subjects matched with age, gender, and educational background were selected as the normal control group ( n=16). The EEGs from the three groups under resting state and cognitive load state were collected.The relative gamma power was then calculated by fast Fourier transform.The spatial distribution pattern of the gamma oscillation in the three groups was analyzed.Spearman correlation analysis was employed to quantify the correlation between relative gamma powers and sleep scale, anxiety and depression scale scores. Results:In the resting state, the relative gamma power in the chronic insomnia with anxiety and depression, chronic insomnia and normal control group was 0.192 1±0.008 0, 0.210 3±0.009 6, 0.237 3±0.006 4, respectively.In the cognitive load state, the relative gamma power in the three groups increased compared with those in the resting state (0.220 7±0.008 1, 0.249 5±0.009 8, 0.267 7±0.007 2, respectively) (all P<0.05). In the resting state, the relative gamma power (F3, F4, C3, C4, P3, P4, O2, F8, T4) in the chronic insomnia with anxiety and depression group (0.179 9±0.009 7) and the chronic insomnia group (0.194 4±0.010 4) was lower than that in control (0.236 0±0.012 0, P<0.05). In the cognitive load state, the relative gamma power (F3, C3, C4, P3, P4, T4) in the chronic insomnia with anxiety and depression group (0.207 3±0.009 7) was lower than that in control (0.259 1±0.009 4)( P<0.05). There was a significant negative correlation between the relative gamma power in the nodes(F3, C3, P3)and the insomnia, anxiety and depression in the three groups(correlation coefficient r=-0.467--0.274, P<0.05). Conclusion:Chronic insomnia patients with anxiety and depression are often accompanied by cognitive dysfunction.The loss of gamma oscillation in left posterior, left central and left apex may be one of the potential neural mechanisms of cognitive dysfunction in chronic insomnia patients with anxiety and depression.

The patients were hospitalized from January 2014 to November 2017 in the Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery of our hospital and were selected by adopting the convenient sampling method. On the day before discharge, the Chinese version of the Abbreviated Burn Specific Health Scale was used to assess the scores in various fields of patients′ quality of life and total scores. The self-designed general situation questionnaire was used to investigate the gender, age, education level, occupation, marital status, cause of injury, and source of expenses of patients, and the scores in various fields of quality of life of patients in various general conditions and total scores were recorded. Data were processed with t test or one-way analysis of variance. The indicators with statistically significance in the total score difference in the above analysis were chosen, and multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to screen the factors influencing the quality of life of patients.@*Results@#Totally 42 groups of questionnaires were sent out and 42 groups of valid questionnaires were retrieved. The effective recovery rate was 100%. The total score of quality of life of patients at discharge was (49±10) points. The scores of general health status (57±23) points, social relations (56±18) points, physical function (49±17) points, and mental health (41±20) points were ranked from high to low. There were statistically significant differences in the scores of physical function, mental health, and general health status among patients of different age groups (F=8.115, 14.182, 19.285, P<0.01). There were statistically significant differences in the scores of mental health, social relations, and general health status among patients with different educational levels (F=3.312, 51.176, 21.852, P<0.05 or P<0.01). There were statistically significant differences in the scores of mental health and general health status among patients with different occupations (F=3.667, 2.947, P<0.05). The scores of mental health and social relations of married patients were significantly higher than those of unmarried patients (t=27.096, 4.885, P<0.05 or P<0.01). There were statistically significant differences in the scores of physical function, mental health, social relations, general health status of patients with different causes of injury (F=3.000, 5.438, 4.005, 9.125, P<0.05 or P<0.01). There were statistically significant differences in the scores of mental health and general health status of patients with different sources of expenses (F=10.456, 3.368, P<0.05 or P<0.01). The total scores of quality of life of patients with different gender and causes of injury were similar (t=0.407, F=1.145, P>0.05); there were statistically significant differences in the total scores of quality of life of patients of different age groups, with different education levels, occupations, sources of expenses, and marital status (F=2.947, 17.064, 9.324, 4.101, t=7.225, P<0.05 or P<0.01). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that age, education level, occupation, marital status, and source of expenses were the factors influencing the quality of life of patients at discharge (t=-2.437, 8.037, -2.994, 5.016, 3.519, P<0.05 or P<0.01).@*Conclusions@#The quality of life of patients with deep partial-thickness and above burns on head and face is at a low level at discharge. The influencing factors include age, education level, occupation, marital status, and source of expenses. Nurses should screen the relevant items when the patient is hospitalized. Emphasis should be laid on young, with undergraduate and above education, unmarried, self-funded patients, and those engaged in occupations with high facial requirements, to minimize the negative mood of patients, encourage them to face life, choose the right career, and improve their quality of life.

Analysis on treatment of eight extremely severe burn patients in August 2nd Kunshan factory aluminum dust explosion accident / 中华烧伤杂志

Objective@#To summarize the measures and experience of treatment in mass extremely severe burn patients.@*Methods@#The clinical data and treatment of 8 extremely severe burn patients in August 2 Kunshan factory aluminum dust explosion accident who were admitted in the 100th Hospital of PLA on August 2nd, 2014, were retrospectively analyzed. There were 4 males and 4 females, aging 22-45 (34±7) years, with total burn area of 55%-98% [(89±15)%] total body surface area (TBSA) and full-thickness burn area of 45%-97% [(80±21)%] TBSA. All the 8 patients were accompanied with severe shock, inhalation injury, and blast injury. According to the requirements of former PLA General Logistics Department and Nanjing Military Command, a treatment team was set up including a special medical unit and a special care unit, with Chai Jiake from the First Affiliated Hospital of PLA General Hospital as the team leader, Zheng Qingyi from the 175th Hospital of PLA (the Affiliated Dongnan Hospital of Xiamen University) as the deputy leader, the 100th Hospital of PLA as the treatment base, and burn care, respiratory, nephrology, nursing specialists from the First Affiliated Hospital of PLA General Hospital, and the burn care experts and nursing staff from the 180th Hospital of PLA, 118th Hospital of PLA, 98th Hospital of PLA, and 175th Hospital of PLA, and nurses from the 85th Hospital of PLA, 455th Hospital of PLA, 101th Hospital of PLA, 113th Hospital of PLA as team members. Treatment strategies were adopted as unified coordination by the superior, unified responsibility of team leader, division of labor and cooperation between team members, and multidisciplinary cooperation led by department of burns. With exception of one patient who received deep vein catheterization before admission, the other 7 patients were treated with deep vein catheterization 0.5 to 3.0 hours after admission to correct hypovolemic shock as soon as possible. Eight patients received tracheotomy, and 7 patients were treated with mechanical ventilation by ventilator in protective ventilation strategy with low tide volume and low volume pressure to assist breathing. Fiberoptic bronchoscopy was done one to three times for all the 8 patients to confirm airway injuries and healing status. Escharectomy and Meek dermatoplasty in the extremities of all the 8 patients were performed 3 to 6 days after injury for the first time. Escharectomy, microskin grafting, and covering of large pieces of allogeneic skin on the trunks of 4 patients were performed 11 to 16 days after injury for the second time. The broad-spectrum antibiotics were uniformly used at first time of anti-infective therapy, and then the antibiotics species were adjusted in time. The balance of internal environment was maintained and the visceral functions were protected. One special care unit was on responsibility of only one patient. Psychological intervention was performed on admission. The rehabilitative treatment was started at early stage and in company with the whole treatment.@*Results@#Acute renal injury occurred in 5 patients within 36 hours after injury and their renal function was restored to normal 4 days after injury due to active adjustment of fluid resuscitation program. No pulmonary complications, such as severe pulmonary infection and ventilator-associated pneumonia, occurred in the survived patients. One of the 8 patients died, and the other 7 patients were cured successfully. The wounds were basically healed in 2 patients in 26 or 27 days by 2 or 3 times of operation, and in 5 patients by 4 or 5 times of operation. The basic wound healing time was 26-64 (48±15) days for all the 7 patients.@*Conclusions@#Treatment strategies of unified coordination by the superior, unified responsibility of team leader, division of labor and cooperation between team members, and multidisciplinary cooperation led by department of burns are the bases to successful treatment. Correcting shock as soon as possible is the prerequisite and closing wound as soon as possible is the key to successful treatment. Comprehensive treatment measures, such as maintaining and regulating the function of viscera, improving the body immunity, and preventing and treating the complications, are the important components to successful treatment. It is emphasized that in the treatment of mass extremely severe burn patients, specialist burn treatment should always be in the dominant position, and other related disciplines may play a part in auxiliary function.

Investigation on antigen-specific T cell responses in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

Objective To investigate the antigen-specific T cell functionality in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. Methods Peripheral blood from 38 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients and 47 health controls (control group) have been collected. The proportions of CD4+and CD8+T cell as well as the ratio of CD4+/CD8+were monitored by flow cytometry. Meanwhile, antigen- nonspecific and specific Th1 responses were compared between two groups through detecting interferon (IFN)-γ, interleukin 2 (IL-2), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α producing cells upon propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (PMA)/ionomycine and epstein-barr virus ( EBV) peptides stimulation, respectively followed by an intracellular cytokine staining. Results Compared to control group, the proportion of CD4+T cell and the ratio of CD4+/CD8+were significantly increased in type 2 diabetes mellitus group (P＜0.05) whereas CD8+T cells exhibited no significant difference between two groups. Antigen-nonspecific Th1 responses in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients were significantly decreased, demonstrated by lower percentages of IFN-γ, IL-2, and TNF-α producing CD4+T cells when compared to control group , while CD8+T cells in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients exhibited similar cytokine production patterns. However, when stimulated by EBV specific peptides, the percentages of IFN-γ, IL-2, and TNF-α producing CD8+T cells were significantly higher in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients than those in control group (P＜0.05). HbA1Cwas positively correlated with the percentage of EBV-specific TNF-α producing CD8+T cells (P＜0.05). Conclusion In type 2 diabetes mellitus, the secretion capacity of CD4+and CD8+T cell was significantly decreased and the antigen-specific responses represent the presence of an abnormal activated status, which indicates that chronic hyperglycemia may damage T cells function and aggravate chronic inflammation.

Construction of predictive model of depression with secondary mild cognitive impairment in elderly patients and analysis of its applicability / 中华老年医学杂志

Objective To build a predictive model of depression with secondary mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in elderly patients based on current clinical diagnosis and treatment technology,and to analyze its application.Methods Elderly patients with depression hospitalized in three hospitals were consecutively included in our study from September 2013 to December 2015 for collecting relevant clinical data,and followed up for 18 months to confirm a prognosis.The follow-up results were used to predict influencing indices for secondary MCI risk,and to verify judgement effectiveness of the critical value of the relevant indices on the window of time of the secondary MCI.Results A total of 216 elderly patients with depression were included in this study,of whom 9 patients were lost to follow-up.Finally,27 patients had secondary MCI,and 180 patients had normal cognitive function during the follow-up period.Cox multiple regression analysis showed that the risk model of secondary MCI in elderly patients with depression was composed of age (HR:1.30,95 ％ CI:1.12-1.64,P =0.03),education years (HR:0.56,95 ％ CI:0.41-0.80,P =0.01),regular psychological treatment (HR:0.73,95％ CI:0.58-0.92,P=0.03),and BSSI scale (HR:1.24,95％ CI:1.08-1.56,P=0.03).Age and BSSI scale were risk factors,while education years and regular group psychotherapy were protective factors.For an elderly patient with depression who was characterized by age ≥ 72.3 years,education years ＜8.3 years,and BSSI scale ≥75.1,the window of time for secondary MCI was shorter,and these critical values of the independent factors had significant judgement effectiveness.Conclusions Age,education years,regular psychological treatment,and BSSI scale are independently influencing factors for secondary MCI in elderly patients receiving the treatment for depression.Furthermore,age ≥72.3 years,the education period ＜8.3 years,and BSSI scale ≥75.1 points are critical values of secondary MCI.

Methods Emodin was used as an internal standard. Plasma sam-ples were extracted with methanol and analyzed by HPLC. The mobile phase was methanol - 0. 1% for-mic acid water (78 ∶ 22, V/ V), with a flow rate of 1. 0 mL·min - 1 and UV 275 nm as the detection wave-length. The plasma concentration of 1,8-TMP rhein in rats was determined by HPLC after single-dose intrave-nous injection in rats with 2,4 and 8 mg·kg - 1 of 1,8-TMP rhein, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were caclulated by DAS 2. 1. Results The result of cali-bration curve was linear over the range of 0. 05 ~ 10. 00 mg·L - 1 (r = 0. 996 2). The lower limit of quantifica-tion was 0. 05 mg · L - 1 . The intra-day and inter-day precision (RSD% ) were both lower than 6% , and the extraction recoveries were higher than 88% , respec-tively. The validated method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study after i. v. administration of 1,8-TMP rhein in rats with a dose of 2,4 and 8 mg· kg - 1 . The T1 / 2 was (68. 35 ± 1. 36), (69. 32 ± 2. 1) and (69. 32 ± 2. 03) min, respectively. The AUC0 - t was ( 101. 03 ± 24. 90 ), ( 144. 79 ± 3. 29 ) and (231. 92 ± 19. 30 ) min · mg · L - 1 , respectively. Conclusion A simple and specific HPLC method for the analysis of 1,8-TMP rhein is successfully developed and applied to a pharmacokinetic study in rat plasma.

Roles of the cross talk between MAP kinases and Keap1-Nrf2-ARE signaling pathways in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease / 药学学报

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a common preventable and treatable disease, is characterized by airflow limitation that is usually progressive and associated with an enhanced chronic inflammatory response in the airways. Its main pathological manifestations include airway inflammation, mucus hypersecretion, oxidative stress and apoptotic epithelial cells. Recent research suggests that MAP kinases and Keap1-Nrf2-ARE signaling pathway are involved in the pathological process of inflammation and oxidative stress. This review explores the potential role of the cross talk of these signaling pathways in airway inflammation, mucus hypersecretion, oxidative stress and apoptotic epithelial cells. To clarify the roles of cross talk between MAP kinases and Keap1-Nrf2-ARE signaling pathway, we also focus on the drugs related to that in the treatment of COPD, and it provides ideas for more drug research in the treatment of COPD.

Effect of urinary proteins and advanced glycosylation end products on ly-sosomes in renal tubular epithelial cells / 中国病理生理杂志

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To investigate the effects of pathological products, urinary proteins and advanced glycosyla-tion end products ( AGE) produced in the progression of chronic kidney disease ( CKD) , on the structure and function of lysosomes in renal tubular epithelial cells ( TECs ) , and try to find a novel approach for preventing or delaying CKD. METHODS:The renal specimens of the untreated patients with minimal change nephrotic syndrome (MCNS), diabetic nephropathy (DN) or normal kidney were collected.The expression of lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP1) and cathepsin B ( CB) was studied in TECs by indirect immunofluorescent staining.Human renal tubular epithelial cell line HK-2 was incubated with 8 g/L urinary proteins or 100 mg/L AGE.The expression of LAMP1 and CB was investigated by indirect immunofluorescence and the activity of CB and cathepsin L ( CL) was measured by biochemical and enzymatic as-says.The degradation of DQ-ovalbumin was also determined.RESULTS: The lysosomal membrane permeabilization oc-curred in the TECs of MCNS and DN patients.After treatment with urinary proteins or AGE-BSA, the lysosomal membrane permeabilization of the HK-2 cells was increased.The activity of CB and CL and degradation of DQ-ovalbumin were de-creased as compared with normal control group.CONCLUSION:The digestive function of lysosome was decreased and ly-sosomal membrane permeabilization occurred in the TECs exposed to urinary proteins and AGE, which might be a key factor to induce the tubulointerstitial fibrosis.

Diagnosis and treatment of drug-induced pancreatitis / 临床肝胆病杂志

Drug-induced pancreatitis (DIP)belongs to gastrointestinal drug-induced diseases.With the wide use of drugs,the number of drugs that may induce DIP is increasing.Since there are not specific clinical indicators for detecting DIP or a complete diagnostic and thera-peutic process for DIP,its diagnosis is often missed.The epidemiology and pathogenesis of DIP,as well as drugs inducing DIP and their classifications,are reviewed.It is stressed that careful collection of medication history of DIP patients and timely discontinuation of suspected pharmacological agents are the key to diagnosis and treatment of this disease,and the patients should be informed of the related drugs that in-duce DIP to prevent its recurrence.

Clinical analysis on 38 cases of pulmonary bulla treatment with uniport video-assisted thoracoscope / 中国基层医药

Objective To assess the clinical efficacy and safety of uniport video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in treatment of pulmonary bulla.Methods Clinical data of 38 patients with pulmonary bulla treated with uniport video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery were analyzed.Results 30 patients under general anesthesia and double-chamber tracheal intubation anesthesia and 8 patients under general anesthesia and single-chamber tracheal intubation and tracheal plugger anesthesia underwent the resection of their pulmonary bulla through the surgery with uniport video-assisted thoracoscope, and 2 patients therein were simultaneously treated with bilateral resection of pulmonary bulla.36 patients were treated successfully;1 patient was given another exploratory thoracotomy after his unilateral surgery because of progressive hemothorax and substantial pneumothorax;and 1 patient underwent respiratory failure after his unilateral surgery and was improved in respiration 2 days after the help of a respirator.The average time of operations were 52 minutes.It averagely took 3.2 days to remove closed thoracic drainage pipes.The post-operation hospital stays took 6 days.The post-operation follow-up took 7-39 months,without relapse and other compli-cations.No death occurred in this group.Conclusion It is safe and reliable to treat pulmonary bulla by the surgery with uniport video-assisted thoracoscope,which is in line with the concept of minimally invasive surgery and therefore deserves promotion.
