Objective To explore the clinical and pathological characters of Xp1 1.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma.Method We screened patients of renal cell carcinoma of PUMCH between Jan.2011 and Dec.2015,6 patients with Xp11.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma were found.There were 2 males and 4 females,with average age of 39 (ranging from 16 to 73 years old).Diameter of tumor ranged from 1.9cm to 19.0cm,and 9.6cra in average.Among which,3 cases were detected by routine physical examination,1 by severe anemia (Hb 66g/L),1 by gross hematuria,and 1 by flank discomfort.Before treatment,2 cases had local metastasis (local lymph node,renal pelvis invasion),1 had distant metastasis (pulmonary metastasis).CT examination showed that the tumors had soft tissue density / low density,with significant enhancment or uneven enhancement in enhanced scanning,and were all considered malignancy.6 patients were all treated with surgeries,of which 5 patients received radical nephrectomy,1 patient received nephron sparing surgery.Result Pathologically,most clear cells arranged in a papillary,nest like structure,with psaamoma bodies in them.Immunohistochemical examination showed that all patients were positive for TFE3.AE1/AE3,RCC,Vimentin,CD10,EMA,P504 were positive in different degree.According to pathological result,all 6 patients were proved to be Xp1 1.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma.After surgery,2 patients received immunotherapy,2 received targeted drug therapy,and 1 received local radiotherapy.The follow-up duration ranged from 9 to 56 months (average 37 months).Among which,1 patient died from tumor recurrence and multiple metastasis 22 months after surgery,1 had pulmonary metastasis 12 months after surgery,and the tumor had no significant progress after receiving targeted drug therapy.All the other patients survive without tumor recurrence.Conclusions Xp1 1.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma predominantly occurs in children and adults younger than 40 years.Arterial phase enhancement is slightly lower for Xp1 1.2 translocation renal cell carcinoma in CT scan than that of renal clear cell carcinoma.Histological features and immunohistochemical staining of TFE3 positive expression are important means of diagnosis of this disease.If necessary,gene detection could be done to make better diagnose.Surgery is preferred treatment option.Metastatic leads to poor prognosis,and need to be supplemented by targeted drug therapy.

Objective: To investigate the effect of a long-term CpG-ODN stimulation on the maturation of murine bone-marrow derived dendritic cells (BMDCs). Methods: Murine bone-marrow cells were cultured in GM-CSF alone or with CpG-ODN for 7 d or for last 36 h (days 6, 7). Cell phenotypes and antigens uptake by BMDCs were analyzed by flow cytometry. Cytokines released by BMDCs were detected by ELISA. The antigen presenting capability by BMDCs was evaluated by mixed lymphocyte responses.Results:Compared to those of the short-term CpG-ODN stimulation group, the expression of MHCⅡ, CD86, CD40, and secretion of IL-12(p70) by BMDCs in long-term stimulation group were not increased. The phagocytosis of FITC-OVA by BMDCs in long-term CpG-ODN stimulation group was strengthened, but the activation of allogenic and homogenic lymphocyte cells proliferation was impaired. Conclusion:Long-term CpG-ODN stimulation can suppress the maturation of DCs, which may explain the low adaptive immunity in sepsis patients.

Objective To investigate the antibacterial activity of combined antimicrobial agents for imipenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii in vitro,so as to provide evidence for guiding clinical practice.Methods Twenty-seven isolates of irnipenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii were collected from March,2007 to February.2008.The minimal inhibitory concentrations(MIC)of the isolates against eleven frequently used antibiotics were determined by E test and agar dilution.Combined drug sensitivity testing was performed by broth checkerboard titration assay.Synergism between minocycline and cefoperazone-sulbaetam was analyzed by time-killing curve.Results The results from checkerboard titration assay and time-kill studies showed that the synergy rates between minocycline and cefperazone-sulbactam,minocycline and amikacin,minocycline and ciprofloxacin were 74.1%,28.0%and 48.1%,respectively.The synergy rates between amikacin and cefoperazone-sulbactam,anaikacin and ciprofloxaein were 23.1%and 37.0%,respectively.The synergy rate between cefoperazone-sulbactam and ciprofloxacin was 7.1%.With combination therapy.both MICs of cefoperazone-sulbactam and MIC of minocyeline decreased to lower than breakpoints.According to time-killing curve,the synergy rate between cefoperazone-sulbactam and minocycline was 100%.Conclusion Minocycline and cefoperazone-sulbaetam can be used for treating infections caused by multidrug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.

AIM: To evaluate the effects and safety of intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide ( TA ) or conbercept combined with macular laser grid photocoagulation in the treatment of macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion( RVO) . ·METHODS: Fifty cases ( 50 eyes ) with macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion were selected and assigned to 2 groups: intravitreal injection of TA or conbercept, and laser photocoagulation after 7d. Best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) , fundus examination, optical coherence tomography ( OCT ) and intraocular pressure ( IOP ) were examined before intravitreous injection and 14d, 1 and 3mo after laser, fundus fluorescein angiography(FFA) were examined 3mo after treatment. The postoperative results at each time point were compared with preoperative values. · RESULTS: Two kinds of treatment compared with preoperative, the BCVA all increased in various degrees. At 14d after intravitreous injection, 1 and 3mo after laser, the ratio of vision improved in TA group was 76%, 80%, 68%, conbercept group was 88%, 92%, 88%, BCVA of two groups in each period all had varying degrees of increase than preoperative. The best BCVA acquired at 1mo after treatment. The macular thickness after treatment was significantly lower than preoperative in two groups. At preoperative, 14d, 1 and 3mo after treatment, the macular thickness in TA group was 557. 5 ± 150. 9,301. 7±120. 1, 262. 7 ± 131. 2, 338. 1 ± 146. 5μm; the macular thickness in conbercept group was 569. 4 ± 135. 9, 282. 3 ± 133. 5, 259. 5 ± 116. 4, 307. 8 ± 122. 6μm. The macular thickness of the two groups were significantly different between preoperative and postoperative. · CONCLUSION: The combination of intravitreous injection of TA or conbercept with macular laser grid photocoagulation can be an effective method in the treatment of macular edema secondary to RVO, conbercept treatment is more effective and security.

In this paper,the bacterial community structure in the gills and intestines of Penaeus chinensis and Metapenaeus ensis were investigated using a culture-independent method of 16S rDNA PCR-DGGE fingerprinting. It was proved that there are abundant and various bacteria in the gills and intestines of these prawns. The bacterial community in the gills and intestines of the same prawn or different kinds of prawns were obviously different based on the clustering analysis of DGGE fingerprints. On the other hand, the same bacteria were found in different kinds of prawns. This was the first time to aim to set up a method to reveal the bacterial community in prawn based on 16S rDNA PCR-DGGE fingerprinting which is of great value for the studies of the relationship between prawn and environmental microorganism as well as the related diseases.

Objective: To explore the cytopathologic features and differential diagnostic essentials of the lung mucosa-associated lymphoid tumor(MALT).Methods: The fine needle aspiration(FNA) tissues and bronchi smears of 4 cases of MALT were examined by cytology,histology and immunohistochemistry respectively.Results: Cytologically,3 of the 4 cases were definitely diagnosed as lymphoid tumor and 1 suspected of small cell undifferentiated carcinoma,while histopathologically,all were diagnosed as MALT.The neoplastic cells were positive for CD20 and CD79a,but negative for CD3,CD5,CD10,CD45RO,CKpan and EMA.Conclusion: MALT is a rare pulmonary lymphoma difficult to be diagnosed.The definite diagnosis of pulmonary MALT depends on the cytology of FNA and bronchi smears,histopathology,and immunohistochemistry.

The association between serum fetuin A and diabetic nephropathy (DN) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) was investigated.Serum levels of fetuin-A and adiponectin were measured by ELISA and the clinical data were collected in 101 T2DM patients with normal albuminuria (NA group),87 patients with microalbuminuria (MA group),44 patients with overt albuminuria (OA group),and 130 normal control subjects (NC group).Fetuin-A levels increased progressively from NC,NA,MA,to OA groups,and there were significant differences among groups(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Fetuin-A level in patients was positively associated with duration of illness,urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR),fasting blood glucose,2-hour postprandial blood glucose,and C-reactive protein(CRP,P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),but was negatively associated with age and adiponectin (all P＜ 0.01).Multiple stepwise regression analysis indicated that duration of diabetes,fetuin-A,CRP,and adiponectin were independent determinants for ACR (all P ＜ 0.01).Fetuin-A may be involved in the development and pathogenesis of DN by proinflammatory effects and repressing adiponectin production.

Objective To find noninvasive estimation of partial pressure of carbon dioxide in artery (PaCO2) by measuring the end-tidal CO2 partial pressure (PETCO2) in elderly patients with respiratory failure with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods All the 30 acutely exacerbated COPD subjects received routine clinical treatment including bronchodilators,mucolytics, glucocorticosteroid, antibiotics and oxygen therapy for 5-7 days, and part of them received noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation (NIPPV) treatment concurrently. They were both tested by eupnea method and prolonged expiratory method before and after treatment. Results Before treatment, PET CO2 (Q) (end-tidal CO2 pressure with eupnea, (50.72±8.93) mm Hg wassignificantly lower than PaCO2 (F=38.73, P＜0.01 ). Yet, PETCO2(P) (end-tidal CO2 pressure with prolong expiration) was (70.35±8.91) mm Hg and PaCO2 was (71.25±9.08) mm Hg. There was no significant difference between PETCO2 (P) and PaCO2 (P＞0.05). The similar results were found after treatment. By linear regression analysis, PetCO2(P) was remarkably positive correlated with PaCO2 before and after treatment (r=0.96 and 0.97, respectively, P＜0.01). According to TABG,PCO2(C) which was calculated by the average expiratory time of fitting curve was (71.78±9.04)mm Hg. And there was no significant difference between PCO2 (C) and PaCO2 (P＞0.05);Thesimilar results were founcl after treatment. By linear regression analysis, PCO2 (C) was remarkably positively correlated with PaCO2 (r=0.97 and 0.98, respectively, P＜0.01) before and after treatment. Conclusions In COPD patients with type Ⅱ respiratory failure, conventional PETCO2 (Q) is significantly lower than PaCO2. Yet, PETCO2 (P) could exactly estimate PaCO2 and is appropriate to its dynamic monitoring. And PCO2 (C) which is calculated by mode Boltzmann on eupnea curve also obtain similar results.

Objective Tamm-Horsfall protein (THP) may play a role in kidney stone formation.The article aimed to conduct a preliminary study on the role of THP in kidney stone formation by investigating the changes of THP in rat urine, pathological changes of renal tissue and the formation of calcium salt crystals after establishing CNPs rat model of kidney stones.Methods Stone samples of 40 patients from February to June 2015 in our department were collected to establish the model of CNPs-induced kidney stone in rats and prepare CNPs suspension.48 SD rats were randomly divided into experimental group (group A) and blank control group (group B).Group A were injected with CNPs and the same amount of sterile saline injection in the group B.The urine of rats was collected after injection at 3h, 6h, 12h, 24h, 1w, 2w, 4w and 8w.ELISA were applied to detect THP levels in the urine.Then the rats were killed to take the kidney tissue.HE staining was used to investigate the pathological changes of the cells and evaluate the formation of the calcium salt crystals.Results THP levels in group A at 24h, 1w, 2w, 4w and 8w ([166.03±3.02], [173.50±1.78], [174.55±2.05], [176.54±2.45], [177.11±1.76]pg/mL) were significantly higher than that at 3h(165.89±2.23pg/mL)(P<0.05), which was the same case in comparison with those of group B ([157.65±2.22], [156.54±1.43], [159.45±3.21], [158.63±2.98], [157.33±2.05]pg/mL).Compared with the calcium salt crystal score at 6h (1 point), the scores at 3,6,12,24h (average score 2 points) increased.At 2w the score increased significantly to 3 points and reached the top score(6.7points) at 8w, which was of significant difference.The score of calcium salt crystals was in positive correlation with THP content (r=0.843,P<0.05).Conclusion THP in urine may contribute to the aggregation of calcium salt crystals and the formation of kidney stones.
