ABSTRACT
Objective@#To understand the infection status, characteristics and drug resistance of non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) in animal feces in Shandong Province.@*Methods@#From 2015 to 2016, convient sampling method was used to collect 1 022 fresh feces of animals in Weishan county and Laizhou city, and 24 non-O157 STEC were isolated. The serotypes of non-O157 STEC strains were confirmed through serum agglutination test. The susceptibility was explored through the antimicrobial sensitivity experiments. ESBLs activity was confirmed by double-disc diffusion. PCR method was used to detect the resistance genes. PFGE typing was operated to assess the relatedness and variability of the strains. The multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) was adopted to get the allelic profile and ST sequence of strains. Analysis was made on the evolutionary relationship between different ST groups was made through CLC Sequence Viewer and Counting Express.@*Results@#A total of 24 non-O157 STEC were isolated from animal feces. 23 strains were from pig feces, and 1 strain was from cow feces, and the serotypes were more dispersed. All of the 24 strains carried stx2 genes. The highest resistance rate was sulfamethoxazole(22 strains), the mount of cotrimoxazole and nalidixic acid was 18 strains, chloramphenicol was 13 strains, tetracycline was 19, and there was a phenomenon of multiple drug resistance. The drug resistance spectrum was sulfamethoxazole tetracycline-compound novammin-naphthidine-chloramphenicol. All strains were sensitive to cefepime and imipenem. The ESBLs confirmatory test showed that 4 strains of non O157 STEC produced beta lactamase. PCR detected 7 resistance genes, and 4 tetracycline resistance genes (Tet A, Tet B, tetC and tetD) were detected. The beta lactamase resistance genes (blaSHV-1, bla CTX-M, bla TEM) were all negative. 24 strains were divided into 15 PFGE types, and their clustering results were more dispersed and no dominant PFGE type. There were 11 kinds of MLST types, most of them are ST540 and ST5133 types, each of which was 4 strains, and clustered into 1 MLST genomes.@*Conclusion@#The serotypes of non-O157 STEC in animal feces O157 STEC were dispersed, and the resistant rate to common antibiotic was high. MLST typing results presents obvious polymorphism. Surveillance and manage ment of these strains should be strengthened.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:Macrophage migration inhibitory factor is involved in the process of a variety of diseases, and plays a very important role in the tumor, autoimmune diseases, inflammation, angiogenesis, fibrotic diseases and so on. These biological characteristics are similar to keloids. OBJECTIVE: To compare the distribution and number of macrophage migration inhibitory factor in normal skin, hypertrophic scar and keloid. METHODS: We colected 40 clinical pathological scar specimens after surgery, including 20 hypertrophic scars and 20 keloids. Another 10 samples of the normal skin were used as control group. Hematoxylin-eosin staining and immunohistochemistry staining were performed to test the expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor in pathological scars and normal skin. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Macrophage migration inhibitory factor was positively expressed in the normal skin, hypertrophic scar and keloid, and the expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor in keloid was significantly higher than that in hypertrophic scar and normal skin (P < 0.01). It means that the abnormal infiltration of macrophage migration inhibitory factor may be associated with the formation of keloid.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:Accumulating studies have confirmed the excellent effectiveness of local infiltration analgesia, but the literature analysis is mainly limited to within 1 day after total knee arthroplasty or shorter period. OBJECTIVE:To study the effectiveness of local infiltration analgesia (LIA) at low concentration after total knee arthroplasty, and to observe the analgesic effect at rest and movement states. METHODS:Thirty patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty were randomly al ocated to control group and LIA group, receiving oral non-steroidal anti nflammatory drug (celebrex) and low concentration of ropivacaine (0.1%) for epidural analgesia. Control group was injected with 0.9%saline 150 mL, while LIA group was injected with equal volume of solution include ropivacaine 300 mg, morphine 5 mg and epinephrine 10μg. The rest pain and motion pain of patients in two groups were evaluated at 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 hours after operation by using visual analogue scale. The incidence rate and degree of nausea, vomiting, numbness and muscle weakness of the legs were observed after operation. The incision healing was also recorded. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Visual analogue scale pain scores in the LIA group were significantly lower than the control group at 6, 12, 24 and 36 hours at rest (P0.05). No patient appeared drowsiness, nausea, and vomiting in both groups. Two patients in each group complained of slight numbness in legs. No case influenced function exercise because of muscle weakness. Al the wounds healed and there were no incision infections in two groups. Combined with oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and low concentration of ropivacaine for epidural analgesia, the local infiltration analgesia technique in total knee arthroplasty is effective in early post-operative pain management, and produces no analgesia related adverse reactions.
ABSTRACT
In recent years, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCTs) are very favorable to the adsorption of middle molecular substances in the hemoperfusion because of their multiporous structure, large surface area and high reactivity, which are beneficial to the excellent absorption properties. The purpose of this study was to study the MWCTs on the adsorption capacity of the middle molecular substances. Vitamin B12 (VB12) was selected as a model of the middle molecular substances. The morphologies of MWCTs and activated carbon from commercial "carbon kidney" were observed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The adsorption behavior of VB12 was compared to each other with UV-visible absorption spectra. The MWCTs formed a sophistaicate gap structure, and compared to the activated carbon, MWCTs had a larger surface area. By Langmuir equation and Freundlich equation fitting analysis, VB12 adsorption on MWCTs is fit for multi-molecular layer adsorption, and the adsorption type of activated carbon is more inclined to the model corresponding to Langmuir monolayer adsorption. The adsorption rate of MWCTs is faster than that of the activated carbon and the adsorption capacity is greater, which could be expected to become the new adsorbent in the hemoperfusion.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of massaging Changqiang acupuncture point during the second labor course of primiparas. Methods 124 primiparas were randomized into the observation group(63 cases)and the control group (61 cases). In the observation group, after entering the second stage of labor, Changqiang point was massaged upwards by using index finger and middle finger, and at the same time primiparas were guided to hold breath to coordinate with uterine contraction to make effort to the anus point which was massaged. While the control group were directed with routine way of correctly using abdominal pressure during process of uterine contraction in the second stage of labor. Results The lasting time of uterine contraction was significantly longer in the observation group than in the control group, the time of second stage of labor was shorter, and the amount of postpartum hemorrhage in the observation group was less than those in the control group. Conclusions Application of massaging Changqiang acupuncture point could prolonge the time of uterine contraction, advance the progress of second stage of labor, and decreased the amount of postpartum hemorrhage.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the impact of extraction and nonextraction in soft tissue profile repair. METHODS: Databases of CNKI, Wanfang, VIP Chinese Periodical Database, CBM, Medline (ovid) and Science direct had been searched for studies of soft tissue profile after orthodontic treatment with and without extractions published in recent decade, with orthodontics, corrective, tooth extraction, soft tissue profile as key words. Hand searching was also done to obtain any further information about the studies. Meta analysis was used to comprehensively quantitatively analyze the upper (lower) lip with esthetic plane and soft tissue plane before and after extraction and nonextraction treatment. According to homogeneity test, fixed effect model and random effect model were adopted to calculate weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence interval (95% Cl).Revman 5.0 was used for data management. RESULTS: Five studies with 356 patients were included. Homogeneity test showed that lower lip-esthetic line and lower lip-soft tissue line Ⅰ~2 < 50%, without heterogeneity, so fixed effect model was adopted. Upper lip-esthetic line and upper lip-soft tissue line were more than 50%, indicating heterogeneity, so random effect model was adopted. Result of meta-analysis showed that, the WMD value and 95% Cl of lower lip-esthetic line, lower lip-soft tissue line, and upper lip-soft tissue line has statistically significance. CONCLUSION: The extraction treatment significantly decreased the distance of lower lip-esthetic line, lower lip-soft tissue line, and upper lip-soft tissue line.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Monkeys, dogs, pigs, rabbits and other large animals have bean applied previously to prepare animal models of midpelatel suture expansion, but there are high cost, small sample size, difficult to obtain antibodies and other disadvantages, Wistar rats have wide heads to facilitate cavity operation, with low cost and high reproduction rata, as the midpalatal suture model, it is possible to overcome the above deficiencies. OBJECTIVE: To establish a rat model of midpalatal suture expansion, and to supply basement for further relative researches of animal models. METHODS: Twenty Wistar male rats of 5 weeks old, average weight of 65 g, were randomly divided into 2 groups, a experiment and a control, with 10 rats in each group. Rats in experimental group were placed on the expansion appliance, inserting into the diastema between the first and second molars, then stick to molar lingual using light-cured resin for retention. The rats in control group were sham operated, followed by one weak of active expansion. After expansion, the midpalatal sections were observed by X-ray and light microscopy. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Maxillary X-ray film showed that midpalatal suture in experimental group was significantly widened, molar lead to cheek. Observed by light microscopy, partial oral side of midpalatal suture in the experimental group was obviously enlarged, mesenchymst ceils were spindle, in the same direction to tension force, Below it, traumatic inflammatory response appeared, with a clear bleeding area. The midpalatal suture expansion model in rats is available, simple and reprodudble.
