ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the research status of foodborne diseases in China from 1985 to 2022, and to explore the development process, research hotspots and frontier trends in this field. Methods With CNKI database as the search source, CiteSpace 6.1.R2 was used to analyze domestic research literature on foodborne diseases from 1985 to 2022. The author and organization cooperation map, and keyword co-occurrence and keyword timeline map were generated to comprehensively analyze the characteristics of foodborne diseases as well as research hotspots and cutting-edge trends in this field in China. Results A total of 2526 valid articles were obtained by exclusion criteria. According to the time distribution of articles from 1985-2022, the number of articles published before 2000 was small, and the annual number of articles published since 2000 had significantly increased. The largest number of articles was published by the China National Center for Food Safety Risk Assessment (51 articles), followed by the National Institution for Nutrition and Health of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (38 articles). Most of the studies were conducted by national or government level research institutions in cooperation with provincial disease control and prevention centers. There was a close cooperation among different agencies. By the keyword cluster analysis, it was found that monitoring, Salmonella, and food safety were the concentrated research areas. The burst detection of keywords showed that food poisoning, sentinel hospital, and epidemic characteristics had the strongest citation burst. In recent years, the research hotspots were serotyping, drug resistance, virulence genes and so on. These keywords could reflect the investigation speed and laboratory level from a perspective. Conclusion The research on foodborne diseases in China is constantly increasing, and the research focus is gradually shifting from simple monitoring to improving the speed of outbreak investigation and laboratory level and speeding up the molecular tracing network to prevent more foodborne diseases.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of design parameters such as neck-shaft angle, femoral offset and anteversion angle of total hip arthroplasty ( THA) prosthesis on contact forces of the hip. Methods A musculoskeletal multi-body dynamic model of THA was established based on AnyBody software. The effects of single or multiple factors on hip contact force were studied when the neck-shaft angle, eccentricity and anteversion angle varied within ±10°, ±20 mm and ±10°, respectively. Results The maximum hip contact force increased by 26. 08% when femoral offset was reduced by 20 mm. The maximum hip contact force increased by 5. 99% when the neck-shaft angle increased by 10°. When the anteversion angle increased by 10°, the hip contact force decreased at 0% -24% of gait cycle, with the peak decreasing by 19. 16% . However, the hip contact force was significantly increased at 38% -70% of gait cycle, with the peak increasing by 67. 78% . Conclusions In extramedullary design of the femoral stem, based on reconstruction of the patient’s anatomical parameters, the offset of the femoral stem can be appropriately increased, and the neck-shaft angle and anteversion angle can bereduced to avoid increasing forces on the hip.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To investigate the resource allocation status of blood testing laboratories in 14 blood stations in Gansu Province, explore the impact of differences in basic conditions on the comprehensive testing ability of laboratories, so as to promote the homogenization and standardization of blood screening capacity in blood stations in Gansu and improve blood safety and effectivenes. 【Methods】 An evaluation index system of laboratory resource allocation was constructed and a question-naire was designed. The data of human resources, infrastructure and key equipment of 14 blood stations were collected. The entropy weight -TOPSIS method was used to evaluate and rank the resource allocation of 14 blood stations. 【Results】 In the comprehensive evaluation of blood testing laboratory resource allocation in 14 blood stations in Gansu, the top three were laboratories A, B and I, and the last three were laboratories G, M and J. On the whole, the main issue was unreasonable structure of human resources: most laboratories had unreasonable age structure; except for Laboratory A, there was no personnel with bachelor's degree or above in laboratories; most laboratories had not established a team with intermediate professional titles. In terms of infrastructure, the size of seven laboratories could not meet the needs of modern laboratory testing, and all eight blood stations had no spare nucleic acid laboratories nor a mutual spare laboratory with other blood stations As for the key equipment, 5 laboratories had no automatic blood grouping diagnostic instrument, 5 laboratories only had one set of enzyme immunoassay detection system, 3 laboratories had no spare equipment for the key equipment, which means if the equipment failure could not be repaired in time, the release of results would be affected. 【Conclusion】 There were significant differences in human resources, infrastructure and key equipment of blood testing laboratories in 14 blood stations in Gansu, which had a great impact on laboratory testing capacity and subsequent development. It is suggested that governments at all levels and health administrative departments optimize the input of laboratory resource allocation according to the blood collection volume of blood stations to gradually narrow the differences in resource distribution between different regions, improve the degree of laboratory automation and optimize the personnel structure, so as to build high-quality and efficient blood testing laboratories and ensure the safety of clinical blood use.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To summarize clinical characteristics of patients with Aspergillus fumigatus infection in a hospital in Nanjing, to preliminarily assess azole resistance in clinical isolates of Aspergillus fumigatus, and to investigate risk factors for the emergence of azole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus. Methods:Clinical isolates of Aspergillus fumigatus were collected from inpatients in Department of Laboratory, Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from March 2017 to February 2021. Clinical data on these infected patients were analyzed, azole sensitivity testing and mutation analysis of the cyp51A gene and its promoter region were performed for these Aspergillus fumigatus isolates. Results:A total of 201 strains of Aspergillus fumigatus were collected, and mainly isolated from sputum specimens. Among the infected patients, there were 131 males and 70 females, and their age were 64.2 ± 15.8 years. The patients were mainly collected from department of respiratory medicine (79 cases), department of intensive medicine (34 cases), department of rheumatology (19 cases), etc. Among these patients, common underlying diseases included interstitial pneumonia (32 cases), malignant tumors (18 cases), pneumonia (13 cases), trauma (12 cases), systemic lupus erythematosus (8 cases), etc. Drug susceptibility testing showed that 6 (2.99%) strains of Aspergillus fumigatus were resistant to itraconazole and posaconazole, and 3 patients infected with azole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus had used antifungal drugs before testing. Sequencing was performed on the cyp51A gene and its promoter region in the 6 strains of azole-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus, and showed TR34/L98H/S297T/F495I mutation in 5 strains and TR34/L98H mutation in 1 strain. Conclusion:Compared with previously published data about azole resistance in China during 2010 -2015, the resistance of Aspergillus fumigatus to azoles in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital did not increase from 2017 to 2021, and the mechanism of azole resistance was mostly associated with TR34/L98H/S297T/F495I mutation in the cyp51A gene and its promoter region.

After treatment, pain score was significantly lower in the study group than in the control group [(1.69 ± 0.81) points vs. (3.22 ± 1.05) points, t = 8.33, P < 0.001]. UCLA score and CMS were significantly higher in the study group than in the control group [(33.26 ± 3.81) points vs. (28.81 ± 3.20) points, (94.22 ± 4.15) points vs. (82.11 ± 8.13) points, t = 6.37, 9.70, both P < 0.001]. After treatment, there were improvements in flexion [study group: (159.26 ± 13.51)° vs. (85.26 ± 11.35)°; control group: (150.22 ± 14.35)° vs. (86.33 ± 11.51)°; t = 45.15, 34.23, both P < 0.001], internal rotation at 90° abduction [study group: (83.64 ± 5.29)° vs. (60.33 ± 4.12)°; control group: (76.81 ± 4.82)° vs. (60.61 ± 4.51)°; t = 36.74, 24.06, both P < 0.001], abduction [study group: (161.29 ± 10.76)° vs. (72.91 ± 5.16)°; control group: (152.81 ± 11.84) ° vs. (73.26 ± 5.22)°; t = 82.34, 64.61, both P < 0.001], external rotation at 90° abduction [study group: (87.82 ± 3.04)° vs. (4.29 ± 5.18)°; control group: (80.22 ± 4.13)° vs. (80.22 ± 4.13)°; t = 42.46, 21.55, both P < 0.001] , and external rotation in neutral position [study group: (43.18 ± 3.20)° vs. (22.85 ± 4.12)°; control group: (37.26 ± 4.12)° vs. (22.64 ± 3.95)°; t = 41.19, 25.10, both P < 0.001] in each group compared with before treatment. After treatment, range of motion of the shoulder in the above positions was significantly higher in the study group than in the control group [flexion: (159.26 ± 13.51)° vs. (150.22 ± 14.35)°; internal rotation at 90° abduction: (83.64 ± 5.29)° vs. (76.81 ± 4.82)°; abduction: (161.29 ± 10.76)° vs. (152.81 ± 11.84)°; external rotation at 90° abduction: (87.82 ± 3.04)° vs. (80.22 ± 4.13)°; external rotation in neutral position: (43.18 ± 3.20)° vs. (37.26 ± 4.12)°, t = 3.29, 6.81, 3.81, 10.72, 8.20, all P < 0.001]. There was no significant difference in healing rate between the study and control groups (1.82% vs. 16.67%, χ2 = 5.35, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Ultrasound-guided adhesiolysis combined with platelet-rich plasma is highly effective in the treatment of rotator cuff injuries because it can greatly improve shoulder function, reduce pain degree, and increase the range of motion of the shoulder.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the values of Ki-67 expression level and 4 molecular types for risk classification of prognosis in patients with medulloblastoma (MB).Methods:A retrospective study of 92 MB patients who underwent surgery and were confirmed by postoperative pathology in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2009 to January 2018 was performed. The clinical data and survival data of the patients were collected and sorted out. The overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method, and the log-rank test was performed. Risk stratification of prognosis of patients was performed according to the Ki-67 expression level combined with molecular typing, the low-risk group had Ki-67 positive index ≤50% and WNT or SHH subtype, the medium-risk group had Ki-67 positive index ≤50% and GROUP 3 or GROUP 4 subtype, or Ki-67 positive index >50% and WNT or SHH subtype), and the high-risk group had Ki-67 positive index >50% and GROUP 3 or GROUP 4 subtype. The differences in OS and PFS among different risk groups were compared. A multivariate Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess factors affecting the survival of patients.Results:There were 50 cases (54.3%) with Ki-67 positive index ≤50% and 42 cases (45.7%) with Ki-67 positive index >50%. The 5-year PFS rate and OS rate of patients with Ki-67 positive index ≤50% were 46.9% and 63.1%, and patients with Ki-67 positive index >50% were 28.5% and 32.0%, there were statistical differences in PFS and OS between the two groups ( P values were 0.020 and 0.028). There were 16 cases (17.4%) of WNT subtype, 14 cases (15.2%) of SHH subtype, 40 cases (43.5%) of GROUP 3 subtype and 22 cases (23.9%) of GROUP 4 subtype, their 5-year PFS rates were 78.0%, 76.0%, 19.2% and 19.9%, respectively, and their 5-year OS rates were 82.1%, 76.0%, 40.2% and 0, respectively. MB patients with GROUP 3 or GROUP 4 subtype had poorer PFS and OS than patients with WNT or SHH subtype ( P values were 0.003 and 0.039). Ki-67 expression level and molecular typing were combined to carry out risk classification of prognosis. There were 12 cases (13.0%) in the low-risk group, 56 cases (60.9%) in the medium-risk group, and 24 cases (26.1%) in the high-risk group . There were statistical differences in PFS and OS among MB patients in low-, medium- and high-risk groups (both P < 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that radiotherapy and risk classification of prognosis as medium risk and low risk were independent protective factors for PFS (radiotherapy vs. no radiotherapy: OR = 0.263, 95% CI 0.124-0.556, P < 0.001; medium-risk group vs. high-risk group: OR = 0.069, 95% CI 0.008-0.581, P = 0.014; low-risk group vs. high-risk group: OR = 0.260, 95% CI 0.131-0.514, P < 0.001); radiotherapy and risk classification of prognosis as low risk were independent protective factors for OS (radiotherapy vs. no radiotherapy: OR = 0.221, 95% CI 0.097-0.503, P < 0.001; low-risk group vs. high-risk group: OR = 0.328, 95% CI 0.150-0.717, P = 0.005). Conclusions:The expression level of Ki-67 and 4 molecular types are related to the prognosis of MB patients. The combination of the two can be used to classify the prognosis risk of MB patients, which has reference significance for the prediction of prognosis of patients and the selection of individualized treatment plans.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To study the current situation of apheresis platelets collection in various regions of Gansu province by comparing and analyzing relevant data from blood stations in 14 prefecture-level cities of Gansu province. 【Methods】 The units of collected platelets and rate of double-dose collection in 13 regional blood stations and 1 provincial blood center from 2016 to 2020, as well as the clinical supply and demand was statistically analyzed. 【Results】 From 2016 to 2020, the total units of platelets collected by 13 blood stations and 1 blood center in Gansu increased from 11 255 U to 15 270 U, with the increase rate at 35.7% in 5 years, and mainly were collected by the provincial blood center (74.57%, 50 253/ 67 392). Although the rate of double-dose collection in the province showed a steady upward trend, only 3 blood stations realized annual double-dose collection more than 20%. There was still a gap of about 10% between supply and clinical needs. 【Conclusion】 Although the number of platelet collections and units in each blood station in Gansu is on the rise in general, the units collected varies in each blood station. Therefore, further measures need to be taken from the aspects of publicity, recruitment, optimizing the collection process, improving the rate of double-dose collection, retention of regular blood donors and regional coordination to increase the collection units, narrow down the regional gap and ensure the balance between supply and demand.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To analyze the comprehensive factors causing adverse reactions to apheresis platelet donation(ARAPD), so as to provide references for effective prevention of ARAPD. 【Methods】 The 272 cases of ARAPD from 2012 to 2019 in Lanzhou were statistically analyzed, and factors that induced ARAPD were studied. Statistical analysis were performed according to the gender, nationality, occupation, age, weight, donation units, and number of donations. 【Results】 As to the factors inducing ARAPD, anticoagulant reactions accounted for the first(32.4%, 88/272). Women and students were prone to develop ARAPD. Among all age groups, 18~25 years old were most likely to develop ARAPD(53.68%, 10 572/35 265). The incidence of ARAPD were significantly different by ages and weights(P<0.05), and donors with lighter weight were more prone to develop ARAPD(P<0.05). The incidence of ARAPD were also significantly different between first-time and repeated donors(P<0.05), but not among the donation units. 【Conclusion】 The anticoagulant reactions are the leading reason for ARAPD. For female, student, young, light-weight, and first-time blood donors, special attention should be paid and corresponding interventions taken to them.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the curative efficacy of pelvic reconstruction plate and T-plate elastic fixation in the treatment of acetabular fractures with comminuted posterior wall.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 21 patients who had been treated at Department of Orthopaedics, Affiliated Hospital to the Second Mongolia Medical University for acetabular fractures with comminuted posterior wall from January 2017 to June 2019. They were 15 males and 6 females, aged from 29 to 55 years (average, 41.5 years). According to the Letournel-Judet classification, there were 15 cases of simple posterior wall fracture with dislocation of the femoral head, 4 cases of posterior wall and posterior column fracture, and 2 cases of double-column and posterior wall fracture. The time from injury to surgery averaged 3 days (from 2 to 5 days). The posterior acetabulum was treated by pelvic reconstruction plate combined with T-plate elastic fixation through the posterior acetabular Kocher-Langenbeck approach. Postoperative fracture reduction, fracture union time, function of the affected hip and complications at the last follow-up were evaluated.Results:This group of 21 patients were followed up for 6 to 24 months (average, 15 months). By the Matta imaging scoring, the postoperative reduction of the posterior wall fracture was evaluated as excellent in 18 cases and as good in 3, giving an excellent to good rate of 100%. The fracture union time averaged 10 weeks (from 8 to 12 weeks) for this group. By the improved Merle d'Aubigné & Postel evaluation at the last follow-up, the affected hips scored from 12 to 18 points (average, 16 points), yielding 18 excellent, 2 good and one poor cases, giving an excellent to good rate of 95.2%. There was no major hemorrhage, nerve injury or deep vein thrombosis intraoperatively. During the follow-up, mild ectopic ossification occurred in one case, and subluxation of the femoral head and traumatic arthritis were observed in another, but no patient had other complications like avascular necrosis of the femoral head.Conclusion:In the treatment of acetabular fracture with comminuted posterior wall, pelvic reconstruction plate and T-plate elastic fixation through the posterior acetabular Kocher-Langenbeck approach can lead to fine short-term outcomes.
ABSTRACT

The control group adopted traditional teaching method, the experimental group adopted micro-videos to assist traditional teaching in the teaching of selected chapters, and these micro-videos were collected from the recording and editing of functional experiments. After the course, questionnaire survey in terms of course design, implementation and effect, as well as final exanimation performance analysis were conducted to evaluate the teaching effect. SPSS 17.0 was used for t test. Results:The final examination scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group [(81.02±9.64) vs. (73.41±11.39)], with significant differences ( t=-5.805, P<0.001). Among them, the scores of Chapter 2 of the two groups were [(8.07±0.94) vs. (6.14±1.05), t=-15.616, P<0.001)], the scores of Chapter 4 were [(16.16±1.79) vs. (10.90±2.23), t=-20.903, P<0.001)], and the scores of Chapter 6 were [(6.04±0.53) vs. (5.82±0.78), t=-2.638, P=0.009)], all with significant differences. 100% of questionnaires were recovered, and more than 90% of students were interested in this teaching method which could strengthen their understanding of the key and difficulties in physiology and was also helpful to cultivate their ability of induction and summarization. Conclusion:Micro-videos based on functional experiments assisted teaching can improve the teaching effect of physiology, and it's worth popularizing.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the biomechanical effects of femoral offset (FO) on total hip arthroplasty (THA) patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Methods Based on the musculoskeletal dynamic software AnyBody and the related data from a female patient with Crowe Ⅳ DDH, the corresponding patient-specific lower extremity musculoskeletal multi-body dynamic model was constructed to analyze both hip joint forces and abductor forces within ±20 mm variation of FOs. The dynamic finite element (FE) model of S-ROM stem with varying offsets was also established. The dynamic load during a whole walking gait cycle calculated by the multi-body musculoskeletal model was applied to this FE models, and the Von Mises stress, contact stress, and stem-sleeve micromotion were then analyzed. Results A variation of ±20 mm offset had small influences on peak forces of hip joints. However, the decrease in FO could lead to an obvious increase in peak abductor force, while the increase in FO could lead to an obvious increase in the maximum Von Mises stress, contact stress, and micromotion of S-ROM prosthesis stem. Conclusions The change in FO had an obvious influence on the abductor forces, the maximum Von Mises stress, the contact pressure and the consequent fretting wear of THA patients with DDH, which should be carefully considered by surgeons.
ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the musculoskeletal multi-body dynamic foot-ground contact model and explore its applicability at different speed. Methods The gait data of the subjects at different speed were collected, and the foot-ground contact model was established based on the full body model from the musculoskeletal multibody dynamic software AnyBody. Then the calculated ground reaction forces (GRFs) and ground reaction moments (GRMs) at different speed (slow walking, normal walking, fast walking and jogging) were compared with the measurements from the force plates. Results The predicted GRFs and GRMs correlated well with the experimental measurements at slow, normal and fast speed (stride speed ranged from 0.69 to 1.68 m/s). The correlation coefficients between predicted and measured GRFs were greater than 0.875 and the correlation coefficients for GRMs were greater than 0.9. Conclusions The developed foot-ground contact model could simultaneously predict GRFs and GRMs with good accuracy, thus eliminating the dependency on force plates. The model could be applied to low-speed gait conditions, such as the elderly and pathological gait.

ABSTRACT
Modular scientific research teaching is an open teaching mode for undergraduates in medical colleges and universities. Under the premise of students' own choice, the lab-based training was performed for 15 teaching weeks, with three modular scientific research courses. Meanwhile, with the help of a series of scientific research lectures, literature reports, and discussions of experimental results, the teachers guided the students to carry out modular scientific research training and taught related theoretical knowledge during experimental teaching. The modular scientific research teaching for undergraduates in medical colleges and universities helps to enhance their knowledge of life science and basic medical knowledge, cultivate basic experimental abilities, and make them fully prepared for clinical research or postgraduate study.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To analyze the susceptibility and distribution of β-lactamase encoding and efflux pump genes as well as the inhibitory effect of efflux pump inhibitors on the carbapenem resistance of the carbapenem resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae without producing carbapenemase (CRKPPC). @*Methods@#One hundred and eight strains of carbapenem non-susceptible Klebsiella pneumoniae were collected from our hospital during 2012-2014. The strains producing carbapenemase were screened by Mastdiscs combi Carba plus disc system. For CRKPPC strains, the susceptibilities to antimicrobial agents were determined by micro-dilution broth methods. PCR and DNA sequencing technology were used to analyze the prevalence of β-lactamase encoding extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) and plasmid mediated AmpC genes as well as efflux genes including acrAB-tolC, kexD, kdeA, kpnEF and kpnGH. The inhibitory experiments were implemented by using carbonylcyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) and Reserpine to observe the role of efflux pumps on the carbapenem resistance. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was performed to analyze the expression of outer membrane proteins OmpK35 and OmpK36. @*Results@#Twenty-six strains out of the 108 carbapenem non-susceptible Klebsiella pneumoniae were identified to be CRKPPC strains which displayed quite high resistance to β-lactam and high resistance to amikacin, gentamicin, levofloxacin and ciprofloxacin. Very good sensitivities were observed to tigecycline, polymyxin, ceftazidime/avibatan and aztreonam/avibatan. The high prevalence of bla CTX-M and bla SHV were also displayed with the prevalent rates being 76.9% and 57.7%, respectively. The loss of outer membrane proteins OmpK35 and OmpK36 with varying degrees was observed, among which 57.7% strains lost ompK35 and 19.2% strains lost OmpK36. More than 80% strains contained efflux genes including acrAB-tolC, kexD, kdeA, kpnEF and kpnGH. The results of inhibitory experiments showed that CCCP displayed quite obviously inhibitory effects on the carbepenem resistance whereas no inhibitory effect was observed for Reserpine. @*Conclusion@#Tigecycline and polymyxin could be used as the basis of combined drug for CRKPPC. The prevalence of AmpC, ESBLs and loss of OmpK35 and OmpK36 with varying degrees among these strains were observed, but the over-expression of efflux pumps should be the main mechanism of the carbapenem resistance in the Klebsiella pneumoniae strains, and efflux inhibitors may have potential value in treating the infections caused by these bacteria.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the molecular characteristics of Brucella strains isolated from Nanjing,understand strains genotying and clustering,and to provide a basis for prevention and treatment of brucellosis.Methods Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and multiple locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) were used to analyze and characterize Brucella ovis strains isolated from 7 cases of sporadic cases in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital,the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School,from 2011-2016,and cluster analysis was did with reference strain data from Jiangsu Province.Results The results showed that 7 strains were defined as sequence type (ST) 8 by MLST.They were typed into 7 subtypes and clustered in the "Middle Mediterranean Cluster" by MLVA.Strain NJ-2011-1 and two strains isolated from other cities in Jiangsu had the same MLVA genotype.Conclusions The results reveal ST8 is the predominant genotype in Nanjing.They have clustered in the "Middle Mediterranean Cluster" by MLVA.The 7 strains are sporadic.The transmission routes and risk factors are more complicated in the city.Various departments should strengthen the cooperation to control the source.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the analgesic effect of compound coeruleum methylene blue preparation after thoracoscopic surgery,and to provide a new idea for the choice of analgesic drugs for thoracoscopic patients.Methods The clinical data of 116 patients who underwent selective thoracoscopic surgery in the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery of Jieyang People's Hospital from January 2016 to May 2018 were analyzed.This study was a prospective study.Research subjects were divided into control group (n =57) and observation group (n =59) by random digital table.In the two groups,no analgesic measures were used in advance,of which the patients in the control group were given the routine injection of piperidine hydrochloride by intramuscular injection after operation.While patients in the observation group were given intercostal nerve block across the upper and lower fibs after operation,and the dosage of compound methylene blue was 1 ml in each rib.on the basis with pethidine hydrochloride.The visual analog score and Ramsay sedation score were compared between the two groups of patients at 4 h,12 h 24 h and 48 h after operation and compared the use of pethidine hydrochloride,adverse drug reactions,ambulation time and hospitalization time.The counting data was expressed in terms of frequency and percentage (％).The measurement data were represented by ((x) ± s).The comparison of different time points within the group was performed by single-factor analysis of variance,and the comparison between the two groups was performed by independent sample t test.Results Compared with the control group's patients [in resting state,12 h:(3.85 ± 1.97) points;24 h:(2.74 ± 1.91) points;48 h:(2.11 ± 1.70) points;in activity state,12 h:(5.02 ± 1.64) points;24 h:(4.89 ± 1.36) points;48 h:(3.83 ± 1.51) points],the VAS scores of the patients in the observation group in resting state [12 h:(2.68 ± 1.24) points;24 h:(1.35 ± 1.16) points;48 h:(0.74 ± 0.63) points] and activity state[12 h:(3.81 ±1.53) points;24 h:(3.25±1.71) points;48 h:(2.42± 1.33)points] were significantly lower at 12 h,24 h and 48h after operation.Compared with the control group's patients 12 h [(2.58 ± 0.41) points] and 24 h [(2.29 ± 0.34) points],the Ramsay scores were significantly higher at 12 h[(2.93 ±0.35)points] and 24 h [(2.79 ±0.30)points] after operation (P＜0.05).The observation group's amount of piperidine hydrochloride was less,and the ambulation and hospitalization time were shorter than the control group's (P ＜ 0.05).The incidence of analgesia-related adverse reactions in the control group and the observation group were 35.09％ and 27.12％,respectively,with no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Compound coeruleum methylenum's analgesic effect after thoracoscopic surgery is accurate and maintains long time,and the side effects are less and the operation is convenient.It is worthy of clinical application.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the species classification and chracteristics of drug resistance and virulence in CTX-M producing Escherichia coli isolated from urine culture.Methods Escherichia coli cultured by urine were collected from our hospital during 2014,the ring disk diffusion test was implemented to determine the bacterial susceptibility,the EBLs determination test was used to analyze the bacterial EBLs producing situation;the enterobactoer duplicated gene spacer consensus sequency PCR(ERIC-PCR) was adopted to perform the genetic relation analysis;PCR was used to amplify the CTX-M encoding genes and multiple virulence genes iutA,ompT,fyuA,fdeC,fimH,traT,cvaC,pap,kpsMT,pAI,usp,aer,hlyA,cnf and chuA;the multiple PCR was used to analyze the species calssification of CTX-M-producing Escherichia coli;these strains of bacteria were classified as the CTX-M-producing group and non-CTX-M-producing group according to the results of CTX-M coding gene detection,the differences in the antibacterial drug resistance and virulence genes between the two gorups were performed the contrastive analysis.Results One hundred and sixty-two strains of E.coli by urine culture had no genetic correlation,among 126 EBLs positive strains,91 strains produced CT-M,in which 57 strains of CT-M producing Escherichia coli belonged to type D,and 116 strains belong to Type B2.The statistical analysis found that the drug resistance rate in the CTX-M-producing group was significantly higher than that in the non-CT-M producing group (except for imipenem),the prevalence of virulence genes including iutA,chuA and traT in the CT-M producing bacteria group was significantly higher than that in the non-CTX-M-producing group(P=0.001,0.006,0.000)Conclusion CTX-M-producing E.coli is main pathogenic bacterium of urinary infection in our hospital,its majority belong to type D with increased drug resistance,moreover has close correlation with virulence genes iutA,chuA and traA and is a pertential threat in clinical treatment of urinary infection.
