A method was developed for the determination of 54 volatile hydrocarbons in workplace air by thermal desorption/gas chromatography-hydrogen flame ionization detector. The workplace air was adsorbed by Tenax-TA thermal desorption tubes, then desorbed by thermal desorption and detected by gas chromatography. The experimental results indicated that the coefficients efficiency of 1,1-dichloroethylene, dichloromethane, trans-1,2-dichloroethylene, cis-1,2-dichloroethylene, 2,2-dichloropropane, bromochloromethane, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,1-dichloropropene were 0.9941-0.9986. The detection limits of bromochloromethane, dibromomethane, trichloromethane, bromodichloromethane, 2,2-dichloropropane, dibromochloromethane, bromoform were 5.4-10.3 ng, the minimum detectable concentration was 0.01-0.1 mg/m~3 (the air volume=0.5 L). The coefficients efficiency of other 38 volatile hydrocarbons was above 0.999, the minimum detectable concentration were 0.001-0.01 mg/m~3. The detection limits of alkenes were 0.4-2.7 ng, alkanes 1.4-3.7 ng, aromatic hydrocarbons 0.2-1.0 ng and naphthalene 2.2 ng. The desorption efficiencies of 54 volatile hydrocarbons were 92.1%-113.1% and the relative standard deviations(RSDs) were 0.6%-17.4%. Except for the RSD values of cis-1,2-dichloroethylene, 1,1-dichloroethane, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, 1,1-dichloroethylene, 2,2-dichloropropane, trichloromethane, trans-1,2-dichloroethylene, dichloromethane, bromochloromethane were 5.1%-17.4%, those of other volatile hydrocarbons were below 5%;The experimental results indicated that the breakthrough capacities of 9 volatile hydrocarbons were 400-4000 ng, those of the other volatile hydrocarbons were above 10 μg. Except for the loss rates of 2,2-dichloropropane, bromodichloromethane were 10%-15% in stable experiment, those of other volatile hydrocarbons in Tenax desorption tubes were below 5%, which indicated that 54 volatile hydrocarbons stored in Tenax tubes were stable. The method is a quick and accurate for the detection of volatile hydrocarbons in workplace air.

ObjectiveTo retrospectively analyze the abdominal computer tomography (CT)findings and pathological results of chronic intestinal schistosomiasis in order to improve the diagnostic accuracy of the disease.MethodsThe plain plus enhanced CT scanning was performed in 56 cases (male 37,female 19; mean age 69.2 years).All cases confirmed by pathological examination.The location,shape,size,calcification and pattern of enhancement of lesion were analyzed by two radiological physicians independently.ResultsThe colon wall of all 56 cases was presented with thickening (0.3-1.2 cm) by CT scanning,among which,43 (76.8%) were presented with welldistributed thickening.The calcification of colon wall included linear calcification (n=42),tram-like calcification (n=19) and spot calcification (n=8).The margin of calcification was clear.The locations of calcification in colon were as follows:whole colon (n =5 ),ascending colon (n =9 ),transverse colon (n=12),descending colon (n =24),rectosigmoid (n=34) and rectum (n=30).There were 17 cases presented with severe calcification.The pathological examinations confirmed that linear and tram-like calcification resulted from calcified ova deposited in submucous,subserosa. In 8 cases with spot calcification and 17 with severe calcification,there were calcified ova deposited in all layers of colon wall,accompanied by chronic inflammation,polyp and schistosomiasis granuloma.There were 5 cases complicated by adenocarcinoma.ConclusionsCT scanning is an important imaging method in the diagnosis of chronic intestinal schistosomiasis,with the distinguishing presentation of well-distributed thickening and calcification in the colon wall.When irregular thickening,mass or nodular are found in the colon wall of patients with chronic intestinal schistosomiasis,colorectal carcinoma should be highly suspected.

Background and purpose:We investigated whether lfuorine-18 lfuorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) maximal standard uptake value (SUVmax) of the primary tumor (SUV-T), SUVmax of the regional lymph nodes (SUV-N) or the overall loco-regional lesion SUVmax (SUV-TOTAL) was related to survival of patients with stage Ⅲ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who received Cetuximab and combined definitive chemoradiotherpay. Methods:From September 2009 to July 2012, seventeen patients with unresectable stageⅢNSCLC receiving cetuximab with cisplatin/vinorelbine (NP) followed by concomitant NP and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) at the Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center were enrolled onto a prospectively study. All patients received positron emission tomography/computerized tomography (PET/CT) scans within 2 weeks before enrolment. Univariate analysis were used to assess the correlation between SUV-T, SUV-N, SUV-TOTAL, gender, age, histology, tumour-node-metastasis (TNM) stage, performance status (PS) as well as smoking status and survival. The factors which showed statistical signiifcance entered into multivariate Cox-regression model. Survival functions of different populations were estimated by Kaplan-Meier method and compared by Log-rank test. Results:In the univariate analysis, SUV-T, SUV-N, SUV-TOTAL, PS and smoking status were prognostic factors. The best cut-off values for SUV-T, SUV-N and SUV-TOTAL were 11, 11 and 20, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that SUV-TOTAL (P=0.012), SUV-T (P=0.025), and SUV-N (P=0.033) were independent predictors of survival with hazard ratio (HR) of 14.7, 11.2, and 6.2, respectively. Conclusion:Local, regional and locoregional maximal SUVs deifned by 18F-FDG PET-CT scanning may have a strong correlation with survival in this patients setting, which merits further study.
