RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate genotypes and drug susceptibility of the 100 strains of Candida glabrata isolated from 100 women (including 50 pregnant women) in order to study the drug-resistance and gene polymorphism, and to investigate the correlation of drug-resistance, gestation and gene polymorphism.@*Methods@#Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) technique was introduced to identify sequences of 6 housekeeping genes from 100 isolates of Candida glabrata. The results were compared with sequence information in MLST databases by Clustalx software to determine a strain allelic profile and sequence type (ST). Drawing the phylogenetic tree by weighted paired group average method and the minimal spanning tree method of MEGA6.0 software, the microevolution and relationship between different strains were analyzed. ATB FUNGUS semi-automatic system was used to test the drug susceptibility. Fisher analysis method was used to analyze the correlation between the genotypes and pregnancy.Ridit analysis method was used to analyze the correlation between the genotypes and drug susceptibility.@*Results@#The 100 isolates belonged to 34 clone sequences. There were 53 isolates belonged to ST-7 ( 26 isolates of pregnancy), 7 isolates belonged to ST-3 (3 isolates of pregnancy), 6 isolates belonged to ST-19 (5 isolates of pregnancy ), 3 isolates belonged to ST-15 (1 isolate of pregnancy), 2 isolates belonged to ST-10 (2 isolates of pregnancy), 1 isolate belonged to the other types of ST. Total of 100 isolates of Candida glabrata were 100% sensitive to fluorocytosine and amphotericin. The effect of itraconazole was poor with the sensitive rate of 20%. The resistance rates of fluconazole and voriconazole were 4% and 1% respectively. All genotypes were sensitive to voriconazole except ST-X1. In the correlation between genotype and itraconazole resistance, ST-7 as the standard group, the Ridit values in the group of ST-15, ST-19 and other types of ST were not included the mean Ridit value of the standard group in itraconazole (0.5). The system evolution tree was built using the neighbor-joining method (NJ) . All genotypes could be divided into 3 groups, as Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ. Group Ⅰ had 44 cases, group Ⅱ had 53 cases , group Ⅲ had 3 cases . All the collected clinical strains had small genetic distances during molecular evolution.@*Conclusions@#ST-7 was the dominant genotype in Guiyang. No correlation between different STs and patients′ pregnancy was found. The different drug susceptibility in itraconazole between ST-7, ST-15, ST-19 and other STs were found. The Candida glabrata associated with VVC showed highly discrimative diversity. However, the phylogenic analysis exhibited genetic similarity among the strains studied.(Chin J Lab Med, 2018, 41: 596-600)
RESUMO
Objective To observe the effect of oral massage combined with trial feeding on dysphagia in neonates with hypoxic- ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Methods We enrolled 30 hospitalized newborns who were diagnosed moderate to severe HIE with dysphagia in the NICU of our hospital from January 2016 to December 2017. According to the random number table method, these newborns was divided into control group and study group. Oral massage combined with trial feeding were given in the study group, nasogastric feeding in the control group and family participatory care and the treatment of nutritional neurodrugs were also given in two groups. To campare the oral milk remnant, feeding time and sucking action after the flow of milk and swallowing, oral feeding time, gastric tube indwelling time and length of stay in two groups. Results After 5 days intervention, the clinical manifestations of dysphagia in two groups were compared, and there were 6 cases, (8.50 ± 1.05)ml, (36.40 ± 2.87)min and 10 cases of oral milk remnant, feeding time and sucking action after the flow of milk and swallowing respectively in the study group, and 15 cases were 15 cases, (10.80 ± 0.39 )ml, (42.29 ± 1.60) min, 3 cases in the control group, respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=12.86, t=7.52, 6.93, χ2=6.66, P<0.05). The oral feeding time, gastric tube indwelling time and hospitalization time of the study group were (15.60±1.35) d, (11.73±1.39) d, and (21.47±2.03)d, and the control group were (17.00±0.65) d , (14.13±0.99) d, (23.27 ± 1.16) d, respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t=3.61, 5.45, 2.98, P<0.05). Conclusions For children with dysphagia, oral massage and combined feeding before each feeding can promote the improvement of oral motor nerves in children, and improve feeding effect, and promote rehabilitation of children.
RESUMO
@#Objective To observe the effects of electroacupuncture combined with edaravone on the conduction velocity of sciatic nerve and oxidative stress in rats with diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Methods 60 Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were included. 10 of them were selected as normal group. The other rats were modeled as diabetic peripheral neuropathy with streptozotocin. 48 of them were randomly selected and divided into electroacupuncture group (n=12), edaravone group (n=12), electroacupuncture + edaravone group (n=12), and model group (n=12). The threshold temperature for wave tail was tested, the levels of superoxidase dismutase (SOD) and malonaldehyde (MDA) were determined, and the conduction velocity of sciatic nerve were measured, before, and 4 and 8 weeks after modeling. Results 8 weeks after modeling, the conduction velocity and SOD increased in the electroacupuncture group, edaravone group and electroacupuncture+edaravone group compared with the model group (P<0.01), with the MDA decrease (P<0.01), while it was improved more in the electroacupuncture+edaravone group than in the electroacupuncture group or the edaravone group (P<0.01). Conclusion Both electroacupuncture and edaravone can inhibit oxidative stress and improve nerve conduction velocity of the sciatic nerve in rats with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, and it is more effective of combination.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the relationship between impaired glucose test and insulin resistance in pregnancy. Methods Ninety-three pregnant women who had one abnormal result among 4 of oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and 179 pregnant women who had normal results of OGTT from 11 hospitals of Shanghai during May 1999 to Aug 1999 were included. Insulin release test were performed at the same time. Insulin sensitive index (ISI), islet secretive function index (IFI) were calculated. Area under sugar curve (SAUC)?area under insulin curve (IAUC)?ISI? IFI?fast plasma sugar(PGO) and fast plasma insulin (INO) were compared between two groups. Results PGO, INO, SAUC, IAUC and ISI of the IGT group and control group were(5.1?1.0)mmol/L vs(4.3?0.4)mmol/L?(142?77) pmol/L vs (114?40)pmol/L?(1186?437) pmol/L vs (1058?407)pmol/L?(23?4) mmol/L vs (18?3)mmol/L and 30?20 vs 22?24 respectively, the differences were significant(P0.05). Conclusions Insulin resistance is one of the causes of impaired glucose test in pregnancy.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate whether insulin resistance is a cause of pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH). Methods All patients who had abnormal 50g glucose screening test accepted 75g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and insulin sensitive index (ISI) was calculated. These patients were followed up and divided into two groups (PIH group and normal pregnancy group) at third trimester of pregnancy. The difference of ISI between the PIH group and normal pregnancy group was compared. Results Fast blood glucose, fast blood insulin and ISI were (4.2?0.7)mmol/L vs. (3.8?0.7)mmol/L, (107.8?48.8)pmol/L vs. (50.4?40.5)pmol/L, and -3.25?0.27 vs. -2.58?0.66 in PIH group and normal group, respectively ( P 0.05). Conclusions Insulin resistance during second trimester of pregnancy may be one of the causes of pregnancy induced hypertension.
