ABSTRACT
To explore how to diagnose and treat brucellosis accurately and timely in patients with fever of unkown origin in non-pastoral areas.The epidemiological history,clinical symptoms,complete blood counts,procalcitonin and treatment efficacy of 7 patients with brucellosis were analyzed retrospectively.Some characteristic manifestations should be differentiated from tuberculosis.The clinical symptoms were relieved after combination of doxycycline,rifampicin,levofloxacin and amikacin for 6 weeks,only one patient with bone destruction needed orthopedic surgery.The overall response rate was 6/7.No relapse occurred during half year follow-up.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To make etiological diagnosis and evaluate the protective effects of post-exposure prophylaxis(PEP) in an event of one dog injured seven persons.@*Methods@#Direct immunofluorescence assay (DFA) and nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) were employed to detect nucleoprotein and nucleoprotein(N) gene of rabies virus in the brain tissues of the dog, the positive samples were sequenced for the full length of N gene of rabies virus, then the homology of the N gene of rabies virus was analyzed after the phylogenetic tree was constructed. Rapid fluorescent focus inhibition test (RFFIT) was applied to detect the rabies virus neutralizing antibodies(RVNA) on day 0, 14 and 40 after PEP.@*Results@#The cerebral, cerebellar and hippocampal tissues were positive by DFA and nested PCR. The phylogenetic tree indicated the rabies virus belonged to the rabies virus genotype I. The homology of the nucleotide and amino acid of the rabies virus N gene were over 86% with the vaccine strains. The titer of the RVNA increased significantly from the day 0 to day 14 after PEP, the lowest was 5.78 IU/ml and the highest was 26.15 IU/ml. On the day 40, the highest RVNA titer was 51.96 IU/ml. No rabies cases occurred in a one year follow-up visit.@*Conclusions@#Normative PEP can effectively prevent the occurrence of rabies cases.
ABSTRACT
The educational evaluation of humanistic quality of medical universities and colleges has many characteristics, that the content is abundant, the methods are various, the mechanism is intructive, the objects are self-disciplined, the effects are obscure and the indication is diverse and ambiguous The study of the content, the purpose, the function and the principle of the educational evaluation of humanistic quality of medical universities and colleges is vital important to establishing operable system of the educational evaluation. The study also plays an important role in enhancing full-scale, coordinative, sustained development of the evaluation.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the sanitary quality of the blood dialysate in hospitals in Hu'nan and its influential factors. Methods Pyrogen,total count of bacteria,22 physical and chemical indexes including calcium,chloride,fluoride,zinc,sodium and other indexes in the blood dialysate samples collected from blood dialysis rooms in 99 hospitals distributed among 14 cities and states in Hu'nan were measured according to the Sanitary Standards of Drinking Water and the Sanitary Standards for Disinfection Technology. The data of analysis were evaluated based on the standards for the blood dialysate ruled by ASAIO and AAMI. The questionnaire on the status operation and maintenance of the water purification system for blood dialysate was performed simultaneously. Results The sanitary quality of the blood dialysate samples from 31 hospitals were completely accorded with the related standards with a qualified rate of 32%. The qualified rates were 44.4%,71.7%,90.9%,97.0%,99.0%,99.0%,99.0% for pyrogen,total count of bacteria,calcium,chloride,fluoride,zinc,sodium in the blood dialysate samples respectively. The blood dialysate from the water treatment system established and put into production during 2000-2003 showed higher qualified rate(45.1%)compared with that during 1995-1999(16.7%),?2=9.293,P
