Objective To evaluate the efficiency of prevention and control strategies of carbapenem-resistant organism (CRO) in medical institutions in China using meta-analysis method. Methods PubMed, Embase, Medline (Ovid), Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chongqing VIP and Wanfang Database were systematically searched for studies on CRO prevention and control in Chinese medical institutions from the establishment of databases to 2023 for meta-analysis. Results A total of 21 studies were included, consisting of 3 randomized controlled studies and 18 non-randomized controlled studies. The meta-analysis results showed that compared with standard prevention and control measures, strengthened intervention measures (including active screening, information-based transparent supervision mode, comprehensive intervention, and bundled prevention and control strategies) could effectively reduce the CRO infection rate [relative risk (RR)=0.40, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.25, 0.65), P<0.05]. Proactive screening could effectively reduce the CRO infection rate [RR=0.52, 95%CI (0.30, 0.91), P<0.05] and carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infection rate [RR=0.47, 95%CI (0.24, 0.93), P<0.05]. Information-based transparent supervision could reduce the CRE infection rate by improving compliance with standard prevention and control measures [RR=0.42, 95%CI (0.28, 0.62), P<0.05]. Conclusions Compared with standard prevention and control measures, strengthened intervention measures can effectively reduce the risk of in-hospital transmission and infection of CRO. In clinical practice, bundled comprehensive intervention can be combined with information-based transparent supervision, and if necessary, proactive screening of CRO in high-risk populations should be carried out.
Objective To summarize the effect of biofilm (BF) on the occurrence of prosthetic joint infection (PJI). Methods The domestic and abroad original l iterature in recent years about the relationship between BF and PJI was reviewed. Results Infection is a critical compl ication for prosthetic joint replacement. Basic research showes one of the reasons for PJI is BF. After adherence of the bacteria to the surface of prosthetic joint, BF forms through a series of regulation andcontrol system. And it lead to the occurrence of PJI. Recently a lot of progress have been made in the research fields of BF related PJI, which have covered aetiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. Different studies show that BF has close relationship with PJI. Conclusion BF is proved to have close relationship with PJI. It is important on cl inical significances to diagnose, treat, and prevent PJI.
随着人口的老龄化,越来越多的有症状或无症状的冠心病患者需接受非心脏外科手术。接受非心脏外科手术而死亡的患者大约有50%是由于心脏并发症所致[1]。围手术期发生的心脏并发症大约5%~10%为心肌梗死,主要发生于术后头3天,其病死率很高,可达32%~69%[2,3]。术后发生心肌梗死或不稳定型心绞痛的患者发生心血管问题的几率增加20倍[4]。因此,如何评估非心脏外科手术患者的心脏危险性,如何预防围手术期心脏并发症的发生,已成为外科医生十分关注的一个问题。
Objective To explore the effect of blocking screws on the breakage of interlocking intramedullary nails. Methods From January 2003to August 2005, 56 patients with fresh and close fracture of long shafts were treated by interlocking intramedullary nails. Among them, there were 32 males and 24 females, including 26 femoral fracture and 30 tibial fracture. Fracture of femoral and tibialshaft was fixed with interlocking intramedullary nails normally in group Ⅰ(n=32). And long oblique, spiral, proximal or distal fracture of bone shaft was fixed with interlocking intramedullary nails and blocking screws in group Ⅱ(n=24). Results All cases were followed up 12 to 21 months(16 months on average). In group Ⅰ, fracture healing failed and the intramedullary nails broke in 3 cases, breakage site was the middle femoral fracture area in 1 case and the first distal interlocking nail hole in 2 cases of distal 1/3 tibial fracture. Fractures healed 6 to 12 months after operations in the other cases, but more bony callus occurred in fracture area. In group Ⅱ, fractures healing and good alignment were achieved, and no breakage was found in all 24cases. Conclusion The use of blocking screws added to interlocking intramedullary nails could improve the stability of fracture areas distinctively, and hence reduce the breakage of intramedullary nails.
Objective To observe the effect of Twist gene interference on the migration and pAkt protein expression of Rhesus retinal vascular endothelial cell line. Methods The Rhesus retinal vascular endothelial cells (RF/6A) were divided into Twist interference plasmid group, negative control group, and phosphate buffered solution (PBS) group; plasmid vectors were transfected via liposome gene transfection method. Migrated endothelial cells was detected and counted by Transwell chamber assay. Matrigel was used in endothelialcell tube formation; the inhibitory effect of Twist gene interference on endothelial cell tube formation was observed.The effect of Twist gene interference on the expression of pAkt protein in RF/6Acells was measured by Western blot. Results The number of migrated endothelial cells in Twist interference plasmid group was lower than that in the negative control and PBS group (F=23.786,P=0.000).The number of endothelial cell tubes in Twist interference plasmid group was apparently less than that in the negative control and PBS gorup (F=7.159,P=0.014). The expression of pAkt protein in Twist interference plasmid group decreased markedly.Conclusion Twist gene interference can suppress the migration of retinal endothelial cells via inhibiting the expression of pAkt protein.
Objective To investigate the prophylaxes, diagnosis and treatment of pelvi-peritoneal hernia (PPH) after Miles operation for rectal carcinoma. Methods Three hundred and nine patients who underwent Miles operation from January 1986 to June 1999 were collected and analysed retrospectively, 11 of them were complicated with PPH. Results The morbidity of PPH after Miles operation was 3.6% (11/309). The main manifestations included abdominal distention to some extent (11 cases), pain (3 cases), vomiting (2 cases), gastric liquid more than 500 ml a day by gastric tube (3 cases), and non-exsufflation of the stoma of colostomy (11 cases). Two cases had pea green small intestinal liquid by perineal tube. The signs were slight abdominal tender (5 cases), active or excessive intestinal gurgling sound (7 cases), and diminished intestinal gurgling sound (4 cases). Abdominal plane films, showing the distant small intestinal obstruction, were taken in all 11 cases. Only 2 patients were correctly diagnosed before reoperation, and other patients were regarded as adhesive intestinal obstruction. The average observational time following appearance of the clinical manifestations after Miles operation was 7.4 days. All patients were diagnosed by laparotomy, 3 of them underwent adhesion lysis and reposition, and 8 patients partial ileum resection and anastomosis. The content of the hernias was ileum. The morbidity after reoperation was 27.3% (3 cases), and the complication was wound infection. All 11 patients were cured and left hospital. Conclusion The PPH after Miles operation is often lack of typical clinical manifestations. The early diagnosis and laparotomy in time is key to management. It is important to prevent the complication.
