Objective In order to select appropriate size of embolizing granules and to achieve complete embolization and good therapeutic effect, the diameters of thyroid arteries in Graves disease was measured. Methods Multiple slides of embolized thyroid tissues from superior pole, body and inferior pole of resected thyroid glands were made. After being embeded and stained, diameters of arteries in various parts of thyroid glands were measured with microscope calipers (Olympus). Results Average diameter capillary network of the thyroid body gland adjacent to superior, infreior artery was 0. 12-0. 25 mm, and the smallest one was 0. 04-0. 11 mm. The diameter of isthmus was 0. 130. 15 mm. The average diameter of superior and inferior artery was 2- 5. 5 mm and 3. 0- 3. 75 mm measured by using interventional angiography Conclusion According to the diameters of arteries which were measured, complete embolization and good therapeutic effect can be achieved.

The aim of this study is to determine whether seeded Dacron with autologous venous tissue fragments shows significant 6-keto-prostglandin F 1? (6 K PGF 1? )production after in vivo implantation.The Dacron grafts seeded with autologous venous fragments were implanted into the inferior vene cava(IVC)of the 13 canines as seeded group;and the control group (8 canines),in which grafts were only preclotted with fresh blood. Plasma 6 K PGF 1? and TXB 2 were assessed at different time.All of the specimens explanted at exsanguination were observed with light microscopy and sanning electron microscopy and the amounts of 6 K PGF 1? from the luminal surface were assessed using ridioimmunoassay. The results showed that the total patency rate of the explanted vessels was higher in seeded group (61.5%) than that in control group ( 25% ),and that endothelial cells lined the whole luminal surface of Dacron at the 14th day after operation in seeded group,but thrombus covered the surface of Dacron at the 14th day in control ones. The level of 6 K PGF 1? from plasma and the luminal surface of Dacron grafts in seeded group was higher,but the level of plasma TXB 2 was lower than that in control group. It can be concluded that seeding Dacron with autologous venous fragments makes a new endothelial lining possible at two weeks,and can release more 6 K PGF 1? and thus lead to an improved patency rate of canine IVC reconstructions,so the graft patency might be determined according to the changes of plasma 6 K PGF 1? and TXB 2 level.

Abstract: Objective　To investigate the allelic mutations of kdr and ace-1 in Anopheles gambiae s.l., providing a scientific basis for mosquito-borne disease prevention and control in the region. Methods Mosquitoes were collected from six villages in two malaria-prone areas, Est-mono (Ogou koulidé, Kepssi, Igbomedji) and Anié (Kolocopé, Bana, Afolé). All mosquitoes were used for DNA extraction, species identification, and genotyping of kdr and ace-1. Results An. coluzzii and An. gambiae, two closely related species within the An. gambiae complex, were identified across six collection sites, with An. gambiae being predominant, constituting approximately 96.53% of the samples. Among all mosquito samples detected, high-frequency mutations were observed at the kdr 1014 locus in the An. gambiae complex, with mutation frequencies reaching 100.0% in Ogou koulidé, Bana, and Afolé, 97.5% in Kepssi and Igbomedji, and 91.1% in Kolocopé district. The allelic frequency of 1014F ranged from 85.5% to 100%. Mutation frequency of An. coluzzii 1014 locus in all three regions was 100%, with an allelic frequency of 1014F ranging from 90% to 100%, indicating a high rate of homozygosity. The kdr 1575 mutation frequency in An. gambiae ranged from 6.6% to 24.3%, with the allelic frequency of 1575Y ranging from 3.2% to 12.2%, all detected mutations were heterozygous, and no mutations were detected at the 1575 locus in An. coluzzii. Mutations at the ace-1 G119 locus were also observed in the An. gambiae complex, with mutation frequencies in An. gambiae ranging from 8.8% to 15% and the allelic frequency of 119S from 4.4% to 7.5%. In An. coluzzii, mutation frequencies ranged from 0 to 20.0%, with an allelic frequency of 119S from 0 to 10%, and all detected 119S mutations were heterozygous. Conclusions The high frequencies of the Anopheles gambiae kdr mutation observed suggest that malaria mosquito vectors in Togo may have developed a high level of resistance to pyrethroid insecticides and possibly a moderate resistance to organophosphorus or carbamate insecticides. This indicates that local vector management authorities should prioritize insecticide resistance issues in future malaria vector control and resistance management planning, and conduct regular monitoring.

Objectives To investigate the clinical features of progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 2 (PFIC2) and to illustrate the importance of genetic diagnosis. Methods The mutations in 27 exons of ABCB11 encoding bile salt export pump (BSEP) were identiifed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and direct DNA sequencing in 6 children with suspected PFIC2. The pathogenicity of the newly identiifed mutations were predicted by SIFT, PolyPhen-2, SNPs&GO software. The clini-cal features and laboratory examinations were reviewed. Results Four disease-causing mutations, p.R928*, p.E554K, p.R575Q and p.Y337H were identiifed, and the last three mutations were novel. These three kinds of novel mutations can cause the disease. Two children with genetic diagnosis had such manifestations as onset within a month after birth, jaundice, hepatosplenomegaly, upset, increased levels of total bilirubin and direct bilirubin, GGT<100 U/L and high levels of total bile acid. Conclusions Genetic diagnosis is a potent tool for clinical diagnosis of PFIC2.

Objectives To determine maximal tolerated dose(MTD)and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of oxaliplatin(L-OHP)when combined with constant dosing of 5-Fu、Lv and concurrent radiotherapy in postoperative patients with rectal cancer.Methods A total of 21 patients with stage Ⅱ or Ⅲ rectal adenocarcinoma after curative surgery were treated with radiotherapy to a total dose of 50 Gy in 5 weeks.L-OHP was administered at a dosge of 45 mg/m2(n=3),55 mg/m2(n=3),65 mg/m2(n=3),75 mg/m2(n=6),and 85 mg/m2(n=6)once a week for 2 weeks(first cycle)followed by a second cycle after a 14-day break.5-Fu and LV at a fixed dose of 5-Fu 300 mg/m2 ivdrip for 2 h,then 500 mg/m2 ivdrip within 22 h,d1,d2.LV 200 mg/m2 ivdrip 2 h d1,d2.DLT was defined as grade Ⅲ or Ⅳ hematologic and nonhenmologic toxicity. Results Grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ leukopenia,diarrhea,and nausea/vomiting were the most common toxic side effects.and most were of grade 1-2.DLT was first observed in 2 of 3 patients at 75 mg/m2(1 of grade Ⅲ diarrhea and 1 of grade Ⅲ leukopenia).L-OHP at dosage of 85 mg/m2 caused DLT in 4 of 6 patients(2 of grade Ⅲ leukopenia and 1 of grade Ⅲ diarrhea and 1 of grade Ⅲ diarrhea).Conclusions Diarrhea was the most common dose-limiting toxicity(DLT).Tlle maximal tolerated dose(MTD)of L-OHP in this setting was 75 mg/m2 which was comparable to the maximal tolerated dose of L-OHP seen in the neoadjuvant setting.
