建立一种粪便细菌学检验的新方法--肠道菌谱分析(初步报告)

目的 建立一种以粪便标本细菌菌谱分析为主要内容的细菌学检验方法。方法 取粪便标本直接涂片做革兰染色，镜检观察标本中细菌数量、种类及比例，并进行显微照相；对粪便标本进行菌群培养，分离病原菌，并与镜检结果进行对照；将照片进行分类。建立菌群失调和病原菌感染的图谱。同时以正常大便菌谱作对照。结果 因菌群失调导致的腹泻。直接镜检表现为细菌数量和种类普遍减少，或某一类细菌增多或减少，或呈单一种类细菌；由某种病原菌引起的腹泻，直接涂片多数只能见到革兰阴性杆菌，且细菌数量少或极少，一般均与培养结果相符。结论 粪便细菌菌谱分析能直接或间接为临床提供腹泻患者的肠道微生态资料，尤其能准确地提示因各种原因造成菌群失调而导致的腹泻，为临床诊断和制定治疗方案提供快捷、科学的依据。     

Etiopathogenetic aspects of hepatitis A. I. Excretion of hepatitis A virus, biochemistry of liver function, and humoral immune response in patients with hepatitis A on admission to hospital

The excretion of hepatitis A virus (HAV) in stools from 30 patients with clinically overt hepatitis A infection on the day of their admission to the hospital was determined and compared with the dynamics and values of biochemical indices of hepatocyte injury as well as with the immune response to HAV. Virus was found in 16 out of 30 stools (53%) collected within 1 week after the appearance of clinical symptoms. In sera obtained on the day of hospitalization both IgM and IgA anti-HAV were detected in all of the 30 patients, while IgG anti-HAV were found in 20 (67%). There was a correlation between HAV excretion and increasing SGPT upon admission to hospital, while the level of SGPT or bilirubin as well as presence or absence of IgG anti-HAV did not correlate with excretion of HAV. HAV from stools was characterized morphologically and physicochemically. The majority of particles visualized by immune electron microscopy had electrondense appearance, while electron-lucid particles were only occasionally encountered. Isopycnic banding of HAV in CsCl revealed a broad range of densities with HAV activity. Rebanding of pooled fractions containing HAV revealed peak amounts of the virus in fractions with densities 1.32-1.33 gm/cm3.     

Isolation of exfoliated colonocytes from human stool as a new technique for colonic cytology

Cell exfoliation in the gut is an important cell renewal mechanism. To approach its investigation we applied a novel immunomagnetic technique for isolation of exfoliated cells from human stool. Exfoliated colonocytes were isolated from 168 stool samples. The cells were assessed microscopically using conventional stains and immunohistochemistry. The technique allowed us to obtain well-preserved colonocytes displaying characteristic features of well-differentiated colonic epithelium and positive immunostaining for cytokeratin 5/8. No mucin-producing cells were found. Exfoliated cells did not produce inducible nitric oxide synthase, albeit cultured colon carcinoma cells HT-29 analysed in parallel showed strong immunostaining. Analysis of exfoliated cell numbers in consecutive stool samples from the same subjects revealed considerable interindividual variation. Overall exfoliated colonocyte numbers were relatively low, isolation being unaffected by addition during the procedure of excessive amounts of HT-29 cells. Apoptosis was extremely rare among exfoliated colonocytes. Well-preserved exfoliated colonocytes can be consistently isolated from human faeces using a simple procedure. Our findings suggest that the actual process of cell exfoliation in the human colon may be much less intense than is generally accepted. Exfoliated cell isolation from human stool constitutes a convenient non-invasive approach that can be used for diagnostic and research purposes.     

Fecal Excretion of Mycobacterium leprae,Burkina Faso

Mycobacterium leprae was detected by optical microscopy, fluorescent in situ hybridization, and molecular detection in feces collected for the diagnosis of Entamoeba coli enteritis in a leprosy patient in Burkina Faso. This observation raises questions about the role of fecal excretion of M. leprae in the natural history and diagnosis of leprosy.     

洞庭湖垸外血吸虫病易感地带野粪分布及与感染螺密度相关研究

目的探讨洞庭湖垸外血吸虫病易感地带距大堤不同距离湖洲野粪分布特点及与感染螺密度的关系。方法１９８７～１９９４年,选择洞庭湖区３０个村外洲进行了观察。结果,野粪污染湖洲以牛、猪、人为主,离大堤愈近,密度愈高。牛粪在各距离中均占绝大多数,且离堤愈远比例愈高;猪粪集中分布在距大堤３００ｍ内;人粪呈散在分布。结论＜３００ｍ,各年感染螺密度均＞０．００５只／０．１１ｍ２,属一级易感地带,且与野粪密度有直线相关关系;然两者均呈逐年下降之势。３００ｍ外,年间虽有变化,但无规律     

急性低气压缺氧对小鼠肠系膜微循环的影响

本文介绍了低气压缺氧密封室处理后小鼠肠系膜微循环的改变。结果发现低气压低氧环境能引起小鼠肠系膜微循环明显改变。表现在血液流态、血管内红细胞聚集,微血管形态以及血管周围渗血等方面的改变尤为明显。微血管形态的改变以微静脉囊状扩张最为突出。在离开低气压缺氧环境后,血管周围渗血在一定时间内继续发展,高浓度氧不能阻止血管周围渗血现象的发展。其他改变包括血管分支出现跳级现象、毛细血管网呈虚线状以及微动脉末梢扭曲增多等。     

Early administration of Bifidobacterium breve to preterm infants: randomised controlled trial

AIM—To investigate the colonisation with Bifidobacterium breve of the bowels of very low birthweight (VLBW) infants.METHODS—The adverse effects of B breve were examined in 66 VLBW infants (preliminary study). A prospective randomised clinical study of 91 VLBW infants was also completed and these infants were followed up for three years. Precise viable bacterial counts of serial stool specimens were examined for the first eight weeks after birth in 10 infants. The colonisation rates of administered bacteria were examined using immunohistochemical staining of stool specimens with a B breve specific monoclonal antibody.RESULTS—In the preliminary study there were no side effects attributable to the bacteria. Immunohistochemical staining of stool specimens showed that the colonisation rates of the administered bacteria were 73% at 2 weeks of age, but only 12% in the control group. Early administration of B breve significantly decreased aspirated air volume from the stomach and improved weight gain.CONCLUSIONS—B breve can colonise the immature bowel very effectively and is associated with fewer abnormal abdominal signs and better weight gain in VLBW infants, probably as a result of stabilisation of their intestinal flora and accelerated feeding schedules.
