The exoerythrocytic forms (EEF) of Plasmodium yoelii yoelii BY265 in the liver of rats and mice are morphologically similar, however, the size of the matured EEF in the former is far much larger than that in the latter. In the sections of the liver of both the animals, which are sliced 48-65 hours after the inoculation of sporozoites, certain degenerated EEF can be found. The degenerated EEF fall into two types:(1) Degenerated EEF without WBC infiltration, These EEF usually remain intact in their outline with many vacuoles of the size 1-6?m in diameter in the cytoplasm. The nuclei of the host hepatic cells parasitized are usually swollen and appear blank after staining. No WBC infiltration can be found.(2) Degenerated EEF with WBC infiltration: The outline of these degenerated EEF is no more intact. They are usually infiltrated and/or surrounded by WBC.Degeneration occurs in 6.6% of the EEF in rats and 5.8% in mice. Once the normally developed parasites become matured and ruptured, large amoants of WBC are attracted and accumlated to form local foci of WBC infiltration of the size 35-90?m in diameter. In some of the foci, remnants of the parasites can be seen, while in some others, no remnants can be found and they most likely are also formed by the degenerated EEF or ruptured matured parasites.

Based on thermodynamic principle, the critical relative humidity of electrolytes is closely related to their solubility. The authors explored the relationship theoretically and calculated critical relative humidity of 21 electrolytes from their solubility in the light of Raoult's law and extended Wilson model. The results indicate that the critical relative humidity values calculated by Raoult's law can not accord with the reported ones and there is a systematic error in the high concentration range; while these calculated by extended Wilson model are comparable to the reported ones.

Objective:To analyze the changes in biological characteristics including infectivity, growth and pathogenicity of Chlamydia muridarum ( Cm) after serial passage in vitro in special conditions in order to provide reference for screening attenuated live vaccines and virulence-related genes. Methods:Wild-type Cm strain (G0) was cultured for several passages using conventional cell culture method under alternate unassisted and assisted culture conditions. Then, the 28th generation (G28) of Cm was selected and compared with the parental G0 strain in terms of centrifugation dependence, attaching ability, intracellular growth curve, plaque size and fallopian tube lesions after genital tract infection in a mouse model. Results:Compared with the parental G0 strain, the G28 strain showed significantly decreased dependence on centrifugation during cell infection ( P<0.05) and increased attachment capacity to cells ( P<0.05). No significant differences were observed in the growth curves 32 h after cell infection or in the plaque sizes between the parental G0 and G28 strains. In the in vivo virulence test, fallopian tube lesions were observed in 87.5% of G0-infected mice and 37.5% of G28-infected mice ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with the parental G0 strain, the G28 strain showed significantly enhanced in vitro infection ability, but decreased in vivo pathogenicity, which brought hope for further identification of virulence genes, isolation of attenuated strains with single genotype and development of live attenuated Chlamydia vaccines.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of transumbilical laparoendoscopic sin-gle-site dismembered pyeloplasty ( U-LESS-P ) for the treatment of ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). Methods Between Mar.2011 and Mar.2012, U-LESS-P was performed in 8 consecutive pa-tients with UPJO by one experienced laparoscopic surgeon .The patients included 5 males and 3 females, with an average age of 28 (16-45) years.Of the 8 patients, six presented with flank pain , and two were a-symptomatic and discovered incidentally by health check .Of the 8 patients, seven had UPJO on the left side and one on the right side .The diagnosis was established by renal ultrasonography , diuretic renal scan , intra-venous urography (IVU) or/and computed tomography urography (CTU).Renal ultrasonography, IVU and ( or) CTU showed hydronephrosis and UPJO in the affected side , while diuretic renal scan demonstrated re-nal function deteriorated .No patients had undergone abdominal surgery previously .A 2-2.5 cm umbilical in-cision was made for single-port access .The procedures were performed using 30°5 mm or 10 mm laparoscope with a combination of conventional and bent laparoscopic instruments . Results All procedures were com-pleted successfully .None was converted to open surgery or traditional laparoscopic surgery .The mean opera-tive time was 153 (117-190) min, and the average estimated blood loss about 20 (10-40) ml.The mean time to resume oral diet was 1.5 days.The drainage remained 2-7 days.The mean hospital stay was 6 (4-8) days.With the follow-up of 3-6 months, symptom-free was investigated in all 8 cases.Ultrasonography , diuretic renal scan and IVU showed decreased or disappeared hydronephrosis .No operative complication , such as anastomotic stoma stenosis , was founded . Conclusions U-LESS-P is a safe and effective proce-dure for the treatment of UPJO , with the advantages of decreased operative morbidity , postoperative rapid re-covery and improved cosmetic result .

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the clinical application of retroperitoneoscopic dismembered pyeloplasty for pediatric ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO).
METHODS:
Of the 85 pediatric patients with UPJO, 56 were boys and 29 were girls. The age of the patients ranged from 2.5 to 11 years (mean = 4.6 years).B-ultrasonography showed hydronephrosis <15 mm (mild) in 15 patients,15-30 mm (moderate) in 59, <30 mm (severe) in the other 6. Intravenous urography (IVU) showed good imaging in 55 patients within 30 min, light imaging in 27 at 30-120 min, and no imaging in 3 after 120 min. The 85 patients underwent retroperitoneoscopic dismembered pyeloplasty. Conventional antegrade or modified antegrade double-J stenting was inserted in the 85 patients intraoperatively.
RESULTS:
The operation was successful in all, with no conversion to open surgery during the operation. The mean operation time was 146 min (125-240 min).The mean blood loss was 68 mL (55-112 mL).The mean postoperative hospitalization was 7 d (6-8 d ).Urine leakage occurred in 1 patient and with a good drainage, urine leakage disappeared in 1 week. Follow-up ranged 3-24 months (mean = 11 months).IVU showed on UPJ stricture, and good imaging in 75 patients within 30 min, light imaging in 10 at 30-120 min. Hydronephrosis was remitted:hydronephrosis resolution in 51 patients, mild in 6 and moderate in 3.
CONCLUSION
Retroperitoneoscopic dismembered pyeloplasty is a safe, effective and mini-invasive procedure for pediatric ureteropelvic junction obstruction, with a rapid postoperative recovery. It will be the ideal treatment for UPJO in pediatric patients.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of bivalirudin versus unfractionated heparin during perioperative primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in elderly patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI).Methods A total of 423 elderly patients with acute STEMI who underwent primary PCI in our hospital were consecutively en-rolled in this study.According to different perioperative anticoagulant regimens,they were divided into bivalirudin group(187 cases)and unfractionated heparin group(236 cases).Baseline data,characteristics of interventional procedures and complications during hospitalization were ana-lyzed.Primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac or cerebral events(MACCE).Secondary end-points were net adverse clinical events.Other observational indicators included stent thrombosis,acquired thrombocytopenia,BARC types 1-2 bleeding and total bleeding events.Results In-hospital MACCE and all-cause mortality were significantly lower in the bivalirudin group than unfractionated heparin group(3.7%vs 9.7%,P=0.021;3.7%vs 8.9%,P=0.039).Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that perioperative application of bivalirudin significantly reduced all-cause mortality in the patients with Killip grade Ⅰ and creatinine clearance ≥60 ml/min when compared with unfractionated heparin(P<0.05).Conclusion In elderly patients with acute STEMI,perioperative use of bivalirudin significantly reduces the incidences of MACCE and all-cause death during hospitalization,especially in the patients with Killip grade Ⅰ and creatinine clearance ≥60 ml/min.
