RESUMEN
Objective To establish a detection method of Salmonella in laboratory animals based on a high-throughput sequencing technology, and to apply it in detection of Salmonella in laboratory animals.Methods DNA samples were extracted from mouse feces.Universal primers for 16S rDNA, 23S rDNA, 16S-23S rDNA, 23S-5S rDNA region, gyrB preferred area were designed, respectively.Each primer was tested and analyzed to determine the best amplification conditions and build a database.Forty-two samples of Salmonella were assayed by Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology and evaluated the specificity and stability of this method.Results The species preferred region of Salmonella was gyrB gene region.The primers for gyrB gene were FP5 ’-AACCACCGCAATCAGACCTT3‘ and FP5 ’-AGCCACGAAACCTTCACYA-3’.The primers were optimized and determined, through a high-throughput sequencing, and the sequence analysis detected very small amount of Salmonella in the 42 samples, indicating that this detection method is stable, highly sensitive, and the limit of detection reached to 0-102 CFU.Conclusions We have established a complete detection system for detection of Salmonella in laboratory animals based on a high-throughput sequencing technology, This system can detect trace amounts of Salmonella in laboratory animals, and this detection method is stable and highly sensitive, which can be also used in detection of other kinds of pathogenic microorganism in laboratory animals.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore the applicative effect of the clinical cluster management during perioperative period on esophageal cancer in elderly patients aged 75 years and over.Methods A total of 36 cases with esophageal cancer aged 75 years and over admitted into Thoracic Surgery Department in our hospital from January 2010 to February 2015 were divided into experimental and control group.Patients in experimental group received clinical cluster management including preoperative therapy for improvement of heart and lung function, selective protection during operation, strengthening support after operation and early nasal tube nutrition.Patients in control group received routine treatment for esophageal carcinoma during perioperative period.The postoperative complications, intensive care unit (ICU) stay, the incidence of anastomotic leakage,postoperative feeding time, postoperative hospitalization time and other indicators were observed.Results Among 20 patients in the experimental group, postoperative cardiopulmonary complications were found in 6 cases, postoperative cardiovascular complications in 3 cases and anastomotic leakage in 2 cases.Among 16 patients in the control group, postoperative cardiopulmonary complications were found in 12 cases, postoperative cardiovascular complications in 10 cases and anastomotic leakage in 5 cases.The incidences of postoperative cardiopulmonary and cardiovascular complications were lower in experimental group than in control group (x2 =7.200 and 8.693, P =0.007 and 0.003).The incidence of anastomotic leakage showed no significant difference between the two groups (x2 =2.562,P=0.109).The mean duration of ICU stay and postoperative hospitalization time were shorter in experimental group than in control group[(5.6±2.7) d vs.(9.8±4.9) d, (15.4±4.5) d vs.(20.6±5.5) d, t=3.208 and 3.125, P=0.003 and 0.004].There was no significant difference in postoperative feeding time between the two groups [(8.4±1.5)d vs.(9.1±1.1)d, t=1.569, P=0.126].Conclusions A tightly clustered clinical managements during perioperative period can minimize the incidences of postoperative complications and mortality rate in elderly patients with esophageal carcinoma.

@#ObjectiveIn our study, the electrical current intensities of 0.05ms square wavelenth in I/t curve were explored in diagnosing damage degree and predicting prognosis of facial paralysis.MethodsAccording to tested 0.05ms intensity values of fronto-occipital muscle and orbicular muscle of mouth in healthy side of 236 cases with facial paralysis and that values of 30 cases with completely-absent nerve, the standard of diagnosing slight, moderate and severe facial paralysis was made. A follow-up survey for the recovery of 198 cases evaluated by House-Brachmann facial nerve grading system was made for one to three years.ResultsIt is found that there were 113 slight cases and 89% of them recovered in 40 days, 112 cases reached to H-B Ⅰgrade; 82% of 49 moderate cases recovered in 4-5 months; 36 severe cases appeared visible mouth corner movement in 2-5 months after onset, and 92% of them had complications or sequelae.Conclusions Intensities of 0.05ms square wavelenth can help in diagnosing damage degree and predicting prognosis of facial paralysis.
