Abstract:
Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and antimicrobial resistance of diarrhea escherichia coli.Methods From June 2014 to June 2015, 143 and 83 stool samples were collected from children infected with acute diarrhea and healthy children respectively. Diarrhea escherichia coli was identified by biochemistry identification and PCR.Kirby Bauer methods(K-B disk diffusion methods) was adopted to evaluate antimicrobial resistance.Results The detection rates of enteropathogenic escherichia coli, enteroaggregative escherichia coli, enterotoxigenic escherichia coli and enteroinvasive escherichia coli in acute diarrhea children and health children specimens were 1.4% and 3.6%,2.8% and 2.4%,1.4% and 1.2%,0.7% and 1.2%,respectively. The age of 3-7 children with acute diarrhea had the highest detection rate of 26.7%, however,the age of 5-7 healthy children had the highest rate of 8.4%. The antimicrobial susceptibility tests showed that the resistance rates for tetracycline, ampicillin and cephalosporin were 52.6%-63.2%,and 5.3%-21.1%. In addition, the multi-drug resistance rate was 50.5%.Conclusions Diarrhea escherichia coli was detected in both acute diarrhea children and health children, and there were multiple infections,which hint diarrhea escherichia coli is an opportunistic infections bacteria. The result of antimicrobial resistance as well as multiple antimicrobial resistance are not optimistic. It is necessary to strengthen the surveillance of diarrheagenic escherichia coli and antimicrobial resistance, and providing a guide for clinical using antibiotic is also imperative.

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the HIV incidence and its associated factors among MSM in Nanjing. Methods Man who had oral or anal sex with man in latest year in Nanjing were enrolled into our baseline study in health and counseling center of Jiangsu Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention from April to August in 2013. From October in 2013 to February in 2014, these MSM were followed after 6 months, and new expected MSM were also enrolled into the cohort at the same time. Questionnaire survey and serological tests for HIV, treponema pallidum and herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) were performed among MSM in the baseline and follow-up study. Results All of 370 MSM were enrolled into our baseline study and the rate of HIV infection was 12.97% (48/370). After 6 months, 225 MSM were followed up and 256 new MSM were enrolled. In the ambispective cohort, HIV incidence among MSM was 8.40/100 person-years. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that having condyloma acuminatum (CA) infection during the latest year (HR=5.730, 95%CI: 1.351-24.312) and syphilis infection (HR=4.807, 95%CI: 1.838-12.573) were significantly associated with HIV seroconversion. Interaction analysis revealed that MSM with coinfection of CA and syphilis or HSV-2 had higher risk of HIV infection than those with infection alone or without infection, and peer education could decrease the risks of HIV infection when MSM with STD infections received peer education. Conclusions HIV incidence is very high in MSM population in Nanjing. The infection of syphilis or CA can increase the risk of HIV incidence.

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the epidemic characteristics of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive patients with tuberculosis (TB) and to identify the high risk factor in Guizhou Province, so as to provide scientific basis for prevention of TB patients co-infected with HIV. Methods The relevant data about pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Guizhou for five years (2010-2014) was collected. HIV infection in pulmonary tuberculosis patients was analyzed by descriptive epidemiology. Results The infection rate in tuberculosis patients was 0.13% including 0.16% in male and 0.09% in female. The HIV infection rate in male was higher than that in female. Young people aged 30-44 years old were so susceptible that the HIV infection rate reached 0.29%. The HIV infection rate in Dong minority people was 0.42% which was higher than that in other nationalities. The drivers, sailors, household workers, unemployed people and mobile workers were at high risk to be infected. Conclusions The HIV infection rate of tuberculosis patients in Guizhou remained low. More focus should be taken on the population as young adults, mobile workers and minority group to prevent and control the spread of TB/HIV. HIV screening in tuberculosis patients and management of data about epidemic situation should be improved.

Abstract:
Objective To examine characteristics and health service utilization of HIV-positive individuals detected through Provider-Initiated HIV Testing and Counselling (PITC) in Dehong Prefecture of Yunan Province in 2013. Methods Newly diagnosed positives detected by PITC and formerly diagnosed positives were compared in terms of characteristics and utilization of health services. Correlates of early diagnosis were also analyzed through Logistic regression analysis. Results A total of 179 individuals were detected positive for HIV by PITC, of whom 76 (42.5%) were newly diagnosed. Compared with the formerly diagnosed infections, the newly diagnosed were younger with more foreigners and less AIDS patients. The proportion of receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) and counselling were significantly lower among the newly diagnosed infections, but the proportion of consistent condom use, having received antifungal drugs, economic supports or tuberculosis examinations were not significantly different between the two groups. 58.8% (97/165) of the HIV-infected individuals were defined as the early diagnosed infections. Multiple regression analysis indicated that women were more likely to be early diagnosed than men (OR=2.40,P=0.006), ≥45 years old were less likely to be early diagnosed than <35 years old (OR=0.25,P<0.001) and foreigners were less likely to be diagnosed than Chinese (OR=0.46,P=0.044). Conclusions The free PITC strategy implemented in township hospitals in Dehong prefecture can identify a number of HIV infections. But more efforts are needed for providing counselling and ART to newly diagnosed HIV infections by PITC.

Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the prevalence of depression and type 2 diabetes and related risk factors among adults in Qingdao, to provide evidence on early psychological intervention on communities and prevention of chronic disease risk factors. Methods A population-based cross-sectional study was conducted in Qingdao, China in 2006. A stratified random cluster sampling procedure was employed to recruit 6 100 participants aged 35-74 years living in Qingdao for at least 5 years. The Zung self-assessment score was employed to assess depression, and diabetes classification were applied using a standard oral glucose tolerance test. Results A total of 2 974 study subjects was included in the data analysis, with prevalences of depression and type 2 diabetes of 10.1% and 16.4%, respectively. Type 2 diabetes were related to depression, rural residents and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol were reversely associated with depression (all P<0.05). Age, depression, BMI, serum triglycerides, hypertension, family history of diabetes and unmarried status were significantly associated with increased prevalence of type 2 diabetes in a multivariable logistic regression model(all P<0.05). There was a dose-response relationship between fasting, 2 h plasma glucose and depression. The corresponding figures were χ2=12.32,OR=1.366 (95% CI:1.151-1.622) and χ2=11.35,OR=1.212 (95% CI:1.081-1.358), respectively. Conclusions Type 2 diabetes and depression is an independent risk factor for depression and type 2 diabetes prevalence in Chinese community, respectively. Early identification and lifestyle intervention may prevent individuals from depression and diabetes.

Abstract:
Objective The study aims to investigate the relationship between maternal prepregnancy body mass index(BMI), physical activity during pregnancy and the gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods A birth cohort study,which including 6 211 pregnant women with single birth, was conducted from March 2012 to December 2014 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Shanxi Medical University. Information on birth outcomes and maternal complications were abstracted from medical records. Multivariate unconditional logistic regression models were employed to estimate the associations between pre-pregnancy BMI and GDM. Results A total of 16.02%(995/6 211) women were diagnosed with GDM. The risk of GDM in obese and overweight pregnant women was higher than that in normal BMI pregnant women (OR=2.288,95% CI:1.946-2.691), but the risk of GDM in underweight pregnant women was lower (OR=0.692,95%CI:0.541-0.885). The association between physical activity during pregnancy and the risk of GDM had not been found. We also did not observe significant interactions between pre-pregnancy BMI and physical activity during pregnancy (OR=0.899,95% CI:0.370-1.534). Conclusions High pre-pregnancy BMI may be a risk factor of GDM, and keeping normal pre-pregnancy BMI is a better way to prevent GDM.

Abstract:
Objectives To understand the prevalence of hypertension and its associated factors among residents over 15 years old in Hefei, and to provide the scientific evidence for prevention and control. Methods A total of 1 778 residents over 15 years old were sampled by multi-stage and stratified random cluster sampling.They were interviewed in household and in centralized style with questionnaire and physical examination. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis model was used to analyze the influencing factors of the hypertention prevalence.Results The prevalence rate of hypertension in Hefei was 35.3%. Besides, the prevalence rates of hypertension in urban and rural areas were 33.8% and 36.6% respectively. There was no significant difference between the prevalence rates in urban areas (33.8%) and that in rural areas (36.6%) (χ2=1.46,P=0.227). The prevalence rate of hypertension increased with age (χtrend2=127.20,P<0.001). The prevalence rate in male was higher than that in female(χ2=8.22,P=0.004). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis results showed that sex, older than 45 years, family history of hypertension, overweight, obesity and central obesity were risk factors of hypertension. Conclusions The prevalence of hypertension among residents over 15 years old in urban and rural areas of Hefei was high.Targeted prevention and control measures should be developed according to the disease characteristics of the city. More emphases should be put on health propaganda and health education to change unhealthy lifestyle, to keep proper weight and decrease risk factors of hypertension in Hefei.

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the association between alcohol drinking and blood lipid levels as well as the influencing factors in Lianyungang rural male adults with hypertension. Methods An epidemiological investigation was conducted in May 2008 in rural areas of Lianyungang.Baseline data collection, including alcohol drinking status, was conducted by trained research staff using a standardized questionnaire designed specifically for the study. Serum total cholesterol(TCHO), triglyceride (TG) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were measured using automatic clinical analyzers (Beckman Coulter). Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) was estimated by the Friedewald formula.Multivariate linear regression models were applied to evaluate the relation between alcohol drinking status and blood lipid levels. Results A total of 5 574 male participants were included in the final analysis.After adjustment for age, body mass index, blood pressure, fasting glucose, smoking and physical activity levels, compared to never alcohol drinkers, current alcohol drinkers showed significantly increased concentrations of serum TCHO(β=15.58,sx-=1.30,P<0.001), HDL-C(β=8.01,sx-=0.43, P<0.001)and LDL-C(β=7.71,sx-=1.17,P<0.001), but had no significant effect on the TG levels (β=-0.71, sx-=1.88, P=0.704). Furthermore, a greater association between alcohol assumption and the increase of TCHO (versus participants without diabetes, P for interaction <0.001) or LDL-C (versus participants without diabetes, P for interaction=0.001) levels was observed in participants with diabetes. Conclusions Alcohol drinking was significantly associated with increased total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. There was no significant association between alcohol drinking and the level of triglyceride.

Abstract:
Objective To observe the expression level of epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) in colorectal cancer (CRC) and discuss the role of EGFR and HER2 in CRC occurrence and development, so as to offer a possible new biomarker for diagnosis and prognosis of CRC. Methods Immunohistochemical (IHC) was used to detect the expression of tissue EGFR and HER2 in 76 cases of CRC primary lesion and normal tissue adjacent to carcinoma, 40 cases of colorectal adenomas. Preoperative serum samples were extracted from 76 cases of CRC and 40 healthy volunteers. Serum levels of EGFR and HER2 were determined by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). Results There was significant difference between the overexpression of EGFR and HER2 in CRC and the low expression in normal mucosa and adenoma(all P<0.05). Serum EGFR(t=14.845, P<0.001) and HER2 (t=15.410, P<0.001) were significantly higher in patients with CRC than those in normal control group. The level of EGFR and HER2 expression in tissue was correlated with lymph node metastasis and Dukes stage(all P<0.05), while without relation with sex, age,etc(all P>0.05). Conclusions The overexpression of EGFR and HER2 in CRC tissue and serum suggests that the expression of EGFR and HER2, and with the development of transfer the degree of tumor infiltration increased, which may play an important role in the occurrence and progress of CRC. Serum EGFR and HER2 can be used as new tumor markers.

Abstract:
Objective The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of calcium deficiency on blood glucose and lipids of rats. Methods Following one week of adaptation, 20 male SD rats (7 weeks old) were randomly assigned into two groups: 10 were control group (0.5% calcium in feed) and 10 were calcium deficiency group (0.15% calcium in feed). Food intake was measured daily, and body weight was measured weekly. After 16 weeks, the rats were anesthetized with pentobarbital via intraperitoneal injection. The blood samples were obtained to examine serum glucose (GLU), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). The mRNA and protein levels of PGC-1α were detected in skeletal muscles. The association between the expression of PGC-1α and blood glucose and lipids levels were analyzed by Pearson's correlation. Results Compared with the control group, food intake and body weight of rats were not significantly different in calcium deficiency group (all P>0.05), while the levels of serum GLU, TC, LDL-C were increased; although the levels of TG and HDL-C were not significantly different between the two groups of animals, a rising tendency was detected; the ratio of HDL-C to LDL-C was decreased (all P<0.05). The mRNA and protein expression of proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α), one of the key factors for regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism and mitochondrial function in skeletal muscle, were decreased in rats from calcium deficiency group (all P<0.05). There was an obvious negative correlation between PGC-1α expressions and serum TC and LDL-C (all P<0.05). Conclusions Calcium deficiency did not affect the body weight of rats, but it could induce serum glucose and lipids disorder through inhibiting the expression of PGC-1α in skeletal muscle.

Abstract:
Objective To establish a viral myocarditis mouse model of enterovirus 71(EV71) infection, and to estimate the curative effect of 3-azole nitrogen nucleoside on this model, and provide the basis of clinical application of the drug. Methods 60 BALB/c mice were randomly divided into six groups, as the normal control group, model group, 3-azole nitrogen nucleoside low dose group, 3-azole nitrogen nucleoside medium dose group, 3-azole nitrogen nucleoside high dose group to 3-azole nitrogen nucleoside positive control group. The mice were injected with EV71 laboratory strain through intraperitoneal (IP). After sacrifice, the serum and heart tissue of each mouse were collected. The heart tissue were used for virus isolation, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and pathologic examination. The changes of creatine kinase isoenzymes (CK-MB) in serum were determined. Results Infected mice successively demonstrated varying clinical symptoms and even death. The models were proved successfully with virus isolation from heart tissue, the results of RT-PCR, the changes of histopathology and the high level of CK-MB. Compared with the model group, the clinical manifestation was alleviated, and the level of CK-MB and mortality were obviously reduced. There were significant differences (all P<0.05), especially the high dose of 3-azole nitrogen nucleoside group. Conclusions The mouse could be infected with EV71 and lead to vital myocarditis. 3-azole nitrogen nucleoside could improve the clinical symptoms; reduce the mortality, and alleviate the damage in the heart tissue, which is benefit to cure vital myocarditis.

Abstract:
Objective To explore the influence of exposure to sodium arsenite(iAs3+) on protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) in skin tissues of rabbits and discuss the relationship between arsenic poisoning on skin and PDI. Methods A total of 30 healthy male rabbits was divided into 5 groups including contrast (C) group, low-dose group (L, 0.13 mg/kg·w), medium-dose group (M, 0.26mg/kg·w), medium-high-dose group (MH, 0.65mg/kg·w), and high-dose group (H, 1.30 mg/kg·w) treated with the above different doses of sodium arsenite, 6 rabbits for each group. After free drink water had been poisoned for consecutive 3 months, these animals were killed and the skin tissues on the same place of these rabbits' back were taken for sampling. Differential expression proteins between arsenite poisoning groups and contract group were screened using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and identified by MALDI-TOF-MS. The expression level of PDI mRNA of skin samples of rabbitss were tested through Real-Time Quantitative PCR. Results After being poisoned for 3 months, no rabbit died, coarse fur of rabbits' back and belly were observed in M, MH, and H groups, and this condition was especially obvious in H group. It was discovered that the expression quantity of PDI was reduced in M and MH groups while was increased in H group. The expression level of PDI mRNA was increased in MH and H groups (F=225.83, P<0.001). Conclusions Sodium arsenite poisoning can change PDI mRNA and the protein expression quantity in skin tissue of rabbits. With the increasing of exposure doses, PDI mRNA expression was increased, and meanwhile coarse fur of rabbits was discovered. However, PDI protein expression was first decreased and then increased. This suggests that PDI might play a role in that arsenite damages skin.
