ABSTRACT

Objective:To establish a classification model for rapid identification of hypervirulent subtype ST17 clones of Group B Streptococcus (GBS) using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS).Methods:In a retrospective study, 235 strains of GBS strains were selected from multiple centers in China during 2015-2018. For model generation,45 strains of ST17 and 50 strains of non-ST17 (20 ST19, 15 ST12 and 15 ST10 strains) were enrolled as the modeling group. The remaining 90 main ST strains (40 ST17, 16 ST10, 17 ST12 and 17 ST19) were served as validation group. 50 GBS strains classified as other minor ST subtypes were regarded as taxonomic groups. MS spectra were collected by Bruker mass spectrometry, and then loaded for model generation and verification, and screening of differential peptide peaks by genetic algorithm (GA) and model verification on ClinProTools 3.0 software.Results:The recognition rate for ST17-GA model were 99.4% with cross validation value of 96.9%. Among the ten differential peptide peaks for the classification model, the weights of both two main peptide peaks m/z 2 956 and m/z 5 912 were greater than 1, while the weights of the all other eight peptide peaks were less than 0.5. Model validation showed only one of the ST17 was misjudged as non-ST17 strain, resulting in diagnostic accuracy of 98.9%, sensitivity of 97.5% and specificity of 100%, positive predictive value of 100% and negative predictive value of 98.0%, respectively. For other sporadic STs, 42.0% (21/50) of them were misdiagnosed as ST17 subtype.Conclusion:A MALDI-TOF MS classification model for hypervirulent subtype of ST17 GBS strains has been successfully established with good diagnostic efficacy.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the changes of pathogens distribution and antimicrobial resistance in children with urinary tract infection (UTI) in 10 years. Methods The results of urine culture and drug sensitivity in children with UTI from January 2001 to December 2003, and from January 2011 to December 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.Results In recent 10 years, there was no obvious change in the ratio of gram-negative bacteria to gram-positive bacteria. Escherichia coli was still the main bacteria causing UTI in children. The detection rate of enterococcus was signiifcantly increased from 18.3%in 2011-2013 to 7.5%in 2001-2003 (P<0.05) and it had become the second pathogenic bacteria. The isolation rate of ESBLs producing strains was signiifcantly higher in 2011-2013 than in 2001-2003 (P<0.05). The rate of Escherichia coli sensitive to imipenem re-mained at 100%and it is also sensitive to enzyme inhibitors antibiotics and nitrofuranto. Sensitivities to antibiotics were changed in different species of enterococcus. Conclusions The distribution of pathogens and antimicrobial resistance in children with UTI are constantly changing. The clinician should pay close attention to changes of epidemiology in the region and hospital and rational use of antimicrobial drugs.

ABSTRACT

Objective To assess the role of promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML)and P53 in the progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC)and its precursor lesions. Methods Different expression patterns of PML and P53 of 241 cases of ESCC combined with adjacent precursors were analyzed by tissue array and immunohistochemistry and correlated with clinicopathological parameters. Results In ESCC and its precursor lesions, PML and P53 displayed positive or strong positive, while in normal esophageal epithelia, these proteins showednegative or stained positive only in parabasal cell layer. The expression level of PML was correlated with the depth of invasion of esophageal carcinomas (X2=29.461,P<0.001),lymph metastasis status(X2=15.226,P<0.001)and pTNMs(x2=26.956,P

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the clinical, pathological and immunophenotypic characteristics of the primary breast lymphoma (PBL).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Analyses of clinical history, preoperative findings, histological and immunohistochemical features of eight patients with PBL were performed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Malignant lymphoma was difficult to diagnose preoperatively. All patients were women. The age range was from 34 approximately 65 years (mean 46.4 years). The right breast was involved initially in three patients, the left in four. One patient presented bilateral involvement. Seven patients were assessed at stage IE, one with ipsolateral axillary lymph nodes involvement at stage IIE. According to the WHO classification, five patients were diagnosed as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (4/5 centroblast, 1/5 immunoblast); the other three patients as MALT lymphoma, all with lymphoepithelial lesions. The paraffin-embedded tissues of all cases showed immunoreactivity for B-cell markers CD20, CD45RA. CD5 and CD10 were negative in all cases. Follow-up data were obtained in six patients, none recurred or died within 8 to 108 months after diagnosis.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>This study indicates that most PBL are diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and MALT lymphoma and have a better prognosis after comprehensive therapy.</p>
