Objective To describe and compare the distributions of aminoglycosides modifying enzymes ( AMEs) in imipenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa ( IRPA) collected from5 cities in China. Methods A total of 146 strains of IRPA were collected from 5 cities of China ( Chengdu, Hangzhou, Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou) . The polymerase chain reaction ( PCR) were used to amplify the genes of AMEs in IRPA. Results Six positive genotypes were amplified out of 16 genotypes of AMEs by PCR. The total positive rate of AMEs is 65. 06% . The positive rates of genes of aac( 3) -Ⅱ, aac( 6′) -Ⅰ, aac( 6′) -Ⅱ, ant( 2″) -Ⅰ, ant ( 3″) -Ⅰ and aph( 3′) -Ⅵ were 33. 6% , 15. 8% , 19. 9% , 28. 8% , 14. 4%, and 4. 8% , respectively. The genotypes of AMEs were discrepant in different areas as 6 genotypes in Huangzhou and Shanghai, 4 genotypes in Chengdu and Beijing, and 3 genotypes in Guangzhou. Conclusion The results show that the positive rate of AMEs genes is high in IRPA, and the distribution is discrepant among different areas.
ObjectiveTo observe the effectiveness and safety of pseudomonas aeruginosa preparation in treating refractory seroma after breast cancer surgery.MethodsA total of 76 patients with refractory seroma after breast cancer surgery who underwent surgery from October 2018 to August 2019 in our hospital were selected. The subjects were randomly divided into two groups. The patients in the control group (n=36) adopted negative pressure drainage connected with indwelling needle in the lower position of the seroma chamber; on the basis, patients in the experimental group (n=400) were injected with pseudomonas aeruginosa preparation into the seroma chamber. The drainage time, total drainage volume, recurrence rate, and incidence of complications of the two groups were compared.ResultsThere were 4 cases in the experimental group and 3 cases in the control group were lost followed-up, so only 69 cases enrolled in data analysis. The drainage time, total drainage volume, and the recurrence rate of the experimental group were all shorter or less than those of the control group (P<0.05). But there was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the experimental group and the control group (P>0.05), such as fever, inflamed skin, and infection of incision.ConclusionPseudomonas aeruginosa preparation is an effective treatment for refractory seroma after breast cancer surgery, which can shorten the drainage time and promote wound healing.
There is a worldwide consensus that urgent action is needed to prevent and control multi-drug resistant organisms in health care settings, especially carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) and carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPsA). In 2017, to focus on this topic, World Health Organization organized experts worldwide to develop guidelines for the prevention and control of CRE, CRPsA and CRAB. In this paper, we introduced the background, development process, main measures, advantages and disadvantages of the guidelines to help infection prevention and control practitioners take actions properly based on the guidelines.
Objective To examine the effects of Pseudomonas aeruginosa(PA)quorum-sensing systems on airway mucus hypersecretion．Methods Sixty Sprague-Dawley rats were intubated with a silicone tube pre-coated with PAO1(wild-type PA strain)，PAO1-JP2(quorum-sensing-mutant strain)or saline in the bronchus．After 28 days，the mRNA and protein expression of MUC5AC in the rats’bronchial epithelia were detected by RT-PCR，alcian blue／periodic acid—Schif(AB／PAS)staining and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)．Results In the PAO1 group，bronchiolar epithelium goblet cells by AB／PAS staining was significantly more than those in the PAO1-JP2 and control groups(both Plt;0．05)．The expression level of MUC5AC mRNA in the PAO1 group was significantly higher than those in the PAO1-JP2 and control groups(both P lt;0．05)．The ELISA showed that the concentration of MUC5AC protein in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)in the PAO1 group was much higher than that in the PAO1-JP2 group(P lt;0．05)．Conclusion PA quorum-sensing system plays an important role in airway mucus hypersecretion
Objective To explore the role of CD4+CD25+ Treg cells in chronic pulmonary infection caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa(PA).Methods Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into a PA group and a control group(n=30 in each group).Chronic lung infection model was established by implantation of silicone tube precoated with PA into the main bronchus.Twenty-eight days later Treg cells in peripheral blood were measured by fluorescence-activated cell sorting（FACS）.Levels of IL-10 and TGF-β in serum were assayed by ELISA.The expression of Foxp3 mRNA in spleen was measured by RT-PCR.Pathological changes of lung tissue were studed by HE staining.Results Treg/CD4+ T cells in the PA group were significantly more than those in the control group[（19.79±6.45）% vs （5.15±0.47）%，Plt;0.05].The levels of IL-10 and TGF-β were (231.52±54.48)pg/mL and （121.05±7.98）pg/mL in the PA group respectively，which were significantly higher than those in the control group[（35.43±23.56）pg/mL and （36.02±8.94）pg/mL].The expression of Foxp3 mRNA in the PA group was significantly higher compared with the control group(0.80±0.044 vs 0.25±0.054，Plt;0.05）.HE staining revealed that PA caused a intensive inflammatory reaction with lymphocytes infiltration.Conclusion CD4+CD25+ Treg cell is up-regulated and plays an important role in chronic lung infection caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Objective To investigate the mutations of quinolone resistance determinational region ( QRDR) in fluoroquinolon-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from patients with nosocomial pneumonia. Methods Eight-four Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from patients with nosocomial pneumonia in Xinhua Hospital during January 2006 to December 2007, from whom fluoroquinolon-resistant resisitant ( case) and fluoroquinolon-susceptible ( control ) Pseudomona aeruginosa were identified. The mutation of QRDR was tested by restriction fragment length polymorphism ( RFLP) and gene sequencing.The relationship between QRDR mutations and clinical prescription was analyzed. Results Mutation in QRDR was found in 42 isolates among the 50 fluoroquinlon-resisitant isolates( 84. 0% ) , while no mutation was found in fluoroquinlon-susceptible isolates. The mutation in GyrB Ser464 was found in 34 isolates ( 68. 0% ) . There was statistical difference in the usage of β-lactams between the GyrB-Ser464-mutated group and the non-GyrB-Ser464-mutated group( OR = 11. 3, P = 0. 003 and OR = 3. 5, P = 0. 023) , also in the time of fluoroquinolon usage before isolated ( P = 0. 038) . Conclusions The mutation of QRDR is contributing to fluoroquindor-resisitance of Pseudomona aeruginosa, most of which lies in GyrB Ser464.Abuse of β-lactams and fluoroquinolon may be the risk factors of mutation in GyrB Ser464.
Objective To establish a rat model of chronic pulmonary infection by inoculating Pseudomonas aeruginosa to Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats.Metods Sixty SD rats were divided into 2 groups,ie.the P.aeruginosa group and the control group. Silicone tube precoated with P.aeruginosa was placed into the main bronchus. For the control group, sterile silicon tube was intubated. Results P ． aeruginosa was detected from lung tissue of rats in infected groups.Bacterial number was higher than 103cfu ／ g 28 days after inoculation.The pathological study showed fibrinous proliferation and granulomas formation in the lungs of infected rats 28 days after inoculation.Microscopy examination showed a inflammation predominantly with lymphocyte infiltration.In control group, no bacterial and pathological changes could be detected. Conclusions The animal model with P.aeruginosa chronic pulmonary infection can be established successfully by silicone tubes precoated with P.aeruginosa intubated into the main bronchus.
Objective To investigate the predictors for carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CR-AEP) as the pathogens of bloodstream infection (BSI) for intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Methods A retrospective case-control study based on ICU- healthcare-associated infection (HAI) research database was carried out. The patients who have been admitted to the central ICU between 2015 and 2019 in the ICU-HAI research database of West China Hospital of Sichuan University were selected. The included patients were divided into two groups, of which the patients with ICU-acquired BSI due to CR-AEP were the case group and the patients with BSI due to the pathogens other than CR-AEP were the control group. The clinical features of the two groups of patients were compared. Logistic regression model was used to identify the predictors of BSI due to CR-AEP.ResultsA total of 197 patients with BSI were included, including 83 cases in the case group and 114 cases in the control group. A total of 214 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated from the 197 BSI cases, including 86 CR-AEP strains. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that previous use of tigecycline [odds ratio (OR)=2.490, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.141, 5.436), P=0.022] was associated with higher possibility for CR-AEP as the pathogens of BSI in ICU patients with BSI, while previous use of antipseudomonal penicillin [OR=0.497, 95%CI (0.256, 0.964), P=0.039] was associated with lower possibility for that. Conclusion Previous use of tigecycline or antipseudomonal penicillin is the predictor for CR-AEP as the pathogens of BSI in ICU patients with BSI.
ObjectiveTo get a picture of the distribution of aminoglycoside-resistant genes in pseudomonas aeruginosa in China. MethodsWe electronically searched CBM, CNKI, VIP and WanFang Data for studies that reported aminoglycoside-resistant genes in pseudomonas aeruginosa in China from inception to December 2012. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and extracted data. Then statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 17.0 software. ResultsA total of 1 144 strains of aminoglycoside-resistant pseudomonas aeruginosa from 10 provinces/cities were included. The positive rates of aac(3')-I, aac(3')-Ⅱ, aac(6')-I, aac(6')-Ⅱ, ant(2")-I, ant(3")-I and aph(3')-VI of aminoglycoside modifying enzyme genes were 13.3%, 40.1%, 21.6%, 40.3%, 38.1%, 23.7% and 2.9%, respectively to the north of Huai River, while the rates were 3.2%, 20.2%, 15.9%, 37.6%, 28.3%, 28.5% and 9.1%, respectively to the south of Huai River. The positive rates of rmtA, rmtB and armA of 16S rRNA methylases genes were 20.4%, 19.4% and 0.7%, respectively, while other 16S rRNA methylases genes were not found. ConclusionIn China, aminoglycoside modifying enzyme is the primary mechanism of pseudomonas aeruginosa aminoglycoside-resistant drugs, while 16S rRNA methylation enzyme mechanism is secondary.
