Purpose:To study the reasons for operative death and complications in cases of thoracic tumors,it was important for avoiding the operation risks and raising the survival rate. Methods:Analyzing the 3490 cases of thoracic tumors treated by surgery during 20 years in our hospital. Results:Among these cases,90 patients died and the operation death rate was 2.58%(90.3 400).In the 90 cases,there were lobectomy of lung cancer in 67,and the death rate was 1.72%(67/2 896);carcinoma of esophagus and gastric cardia in 19,the rate 3.91%(16/486);mediastinal tumors in 2,the rate 1.85%(2/108).The chief complications were cardiopulmonary diseases,stress ulcer,postoperative hemorrhage,stump fistula,anastomatic fistula,chylothorax and diaphragmatic hernia.Conclusions:The pulmonary,cardiavescular complications and anastomatic fistula were the major reasons for the operative death,but the first was pulmonary complication.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic and predictive value of spasticity in shunting patients with normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH).Methods Twenty-three secondary NPH patients who received ventriculo-peritoneal shunt were retrospected. Increased muscular tension were quantified pre and post-shunting by modified Ashworth scale. The dilatated ventricle was measured by Evans' index.Results Four weeks after shunting, spasticity was relieved to some extent on all the identical limbs side of the primary impairment cerebral and 78% cases was improved to zero scale. on the contralateral side limbs, the relieved rate was 86% and 46% cases improved to normal scale. Evans' index improved 35%.Conclusion Increased muscle tonus could be measurement quantified and is readily available and sensitive as a diagnostic criteria in secondary NPH.

In order to amplify the complete genome of enJSRV from the strain of Inner Mongolia (enJSRV-NM), we used enJSRV-specific and JSRV-specific DNA probes in dot blot hybridization. Seven pairs of primers were designed based on Genbank sequences. Seven fragments were obtained by PCR and were cloned into the PMD19- T vectors. The recombinant plasmids were sequenced and analyzed. The results showed that the genome was 7 942 bp in length and contained four overlapping open reading frames corresponding to the gag, pro, pol and env genes as well as an additional open reading frame (orf-x) that overlaps the 3' end of the pol gene. The nucleotide acid sequences of the enJSRV-NM loci were compared with the sequences of South Africa enJS56A1 strain (Accession No. AF153615) and USA JSRV21 strain (Accession No. AF105220). The nucleotide acid identities were 99.2% and 92.3% respectively. Two zinc fingers were found in the NC region in the predicted amino acid sequence. However, the YXXM motif, which is a reliable molecular marker for the infectious exogenous virus, was not found in the TM region. It was found that the enJSRV-NM region was 90%-98% identical at the amino acid level to its exogenous infectious counterparts in most of the retroviral genome. This is the first nucleotide sequence of enJSRV reported in P.R China. The resource work has provided a wide range of information useful not only for expression genomics and annotation of genomic DNA sequence, but also for further research on the clinical diagnosis of OPA.

Objective Some features, as numbers, morphology and distribution, of the Langerhans cells (LC) with various surface marker infiltrating in the lesion of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) were explored in order to apply some experimental data for assessment of the roles of LCs in the cutaneous tumor immunity.Methods Expression of CD1a, S-100 and HLA-DR on the surface of infiltrating LC of 30 cases of BCC and 15 cases of normal skin tissues were investigated by immunohistochemistry. The expression qualities were studied with computer image analysis system. Results It was observed that CD1a+ LC distributed mainly in tumor nest compared with the control group, CD1a+ LC in BCC revealed morphological changes: the dendrites shortened or disappeared. The density of CD1a+ LC, detected by cell number counting as well as staining strength scanning, showed a statistic difference between the control group and BCC (P ＜0.05). S-100(+)LC spread evenly throughout BCC lesions. The number of cell dendrites as well as its length increased markedly.The cell number as well as the staining strength in BCC lesions increased markedly compared with the control group (P ＜0.05). HLA-DR(+)LC infiltrated mainly around the located tumor. This kind of LC in the lesion did not show significant differences compared with the controls (P ＞0.05). Conclusion LC showed differences between BCC lesion and normal skin tissues. The alterations in numbers, morphology and distribution of LC with various markers in the lesion of BCC supplied special local cellular immunity status, resulting in disable metastasis and good prognosis.

Objective: To understand characteristics of men who have sex with men (MSM) who applied for HIV antibody self-testing reagents through "AIDS self-testing" column of a WeChat official account named "Dark Blue Public Health Center" in Tianjin City, so as to provide insights into exploring online modes of HIV antibody self-testing for MSM. Methods: Data of MSM who were 18 years old or above, currently lived in Tianjin City, had sex with men in the past six months and applied for HIV antibody self-testing reagents through "AIDS self-testing" column from May 2018 to December 2022 were collected. Demographic characteristics, results return and positive findings were descriptively analyzed. Results: Data of 2 064 MSM were collected, including 1 052 MSM aged 20 to 29 years (50.97%), 1 522 unmarried MSM (73.74%), 545 workers (26.41%), 1 385 MSM with college education or above (67.10%), and 315 MSM without testing for HIV antibody in the past (15.26%). A total of 6 470 self-testing reagents were applied, and 5 942 testing results were returned, with a return rate of 91.84%. There were 33.28% (687/2 064) of the applicants applying for 66.32% (4 291/6 470) reagents multiple times. There were 73 MSM with positive results, accounting for 1.23%. Conclusions The MSM applying for HIV antibody self-testing reagents through "AIDS self-testing" are mainly young and highly educated, including some who have never tested for HIV. However, attention should be paid to duplicate applications and the return rate should be increased.

Objective: To investigate the detection of HIV/AIDS cases in medical institutions in Tianjin Municipality from 2005 to 2021, so as to provide insights into optimization of HIV antibody testing strategies in medical institutions. Methods: All data pertaining to individuals receiving HIV antibody tests in medical institutions in Tianjin Municipality from 2005 to 2021 were collected from the information systems in medical institutions and the HIV/AIDS Prevention and Control Information System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The positive rate of HIV antibody and epidemiological characteristics of HIV/AIDS cases in medical institutions were analyzed. Results: The number of HIV antibody tests increased from 86 102 person-times in 2005 to 1 369 345 person-times in 2021 in medical institutions in Tianjin Municipality, with annual increase by 18.88%. The positive rate of HIV antibody increased from 2.44/104 to 2.85/104 (P<0.05), with annual increase by 2.79/104. Both the proportion of the number of HIV antibody tests and the number of HIV/AIDS cases detected by medical institutions in the whole city appeared a tendency towards a rise (P<0.05). A high positive rate of HIV antibody was seen in sexually transmitted disease clinics (53.69/104) and other testing services (12.25/104), and the highest positive rate of HIV antibody was seen in individuals at ages of 20 to 39 years (5.40/104), while the positive rate of HIV antibody was higher in men (5.84/104) than in women (0.53/104) (P<0.05). A total of 3 610 HIV/AIDS cases were detected in medical institutions in Tianjin Municipality from 2005 to 2021, with a median age of 38 (interquartile range, 24) years. Of all HIV/AIDS patients, there were 3 277 men (90.78%), and men who have sex with men was the predominant transmission route (63.46%), while the proportion of late identification of HIV/AIDS cases was 65.60%. In addition, the proportion of timely detection for the first CD4+T lymphocyte count testing increased from 23.81% in 2005 to 71.54% in 2021 (P<0.05). Conclusions The number of HIV antibody tests and positive rate of HIV antibody appeared a tendency towards a rise in medical institutions in Tianjin Municipality from 2005 to 2021. The HIV/AIDS cases were predominantly identified in sexually transmitted disease clinics and other testing services, and were predominantly men.

Objective To investigate the related factors of infection post ventricle-peritoneal shunt and explore some preventive measures.Methods 85 cases after ventricle-peritoneal shunt for normal pressure cranial hydrocephalus were analysed retrospectively. The effect of intensive prevention was observed. Results The overall infection rate was 7% after ventricle-peritoneal shunt. There was significant difference between the patients with or without infection post-operation in some factors, such as preoperative infection (pneumonia, urinary tract infection, intracranial infection, biliary infection); the operator; activities of daily living. It was 9.8% (6/61) under routine aseptic operation,and was 0 (0/24) under intensive management. Conclusion Infection after ventricle-peritoneal shunt is associated with many factors, especially the susceptibility and contact to infection. Intensive management can significantly prevent the infection.

Objective To investigate the forensic characteristics of death cases of EV71 through retrospective analysis of 9 death forensic cases of Enterovirus 71 (EV71) . Methods Nine cases of EV71 death cases were collected,and the population characteristics, histopathological change,toxicology,pathology and causes of death of these cases were discussed. Results All 9 patients had fever, cough, emesis, and were treated as influenza or hand-foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in local hospitals, the condition was still deteriorating and finally died. The 9 autopsy cases were diagnosed as brain stem encephalitis and death in forensic diagnose. Conclusion The HFMD disease caused by EV71 infection progresses rapidly often leads to medical disputes, the patient's family and hospital's opinions on the causes of death in patients are often different,identifying the cause of death is conducive to resolve the disputes.

ObjectiveTo observe the prepulse inhibition(PPI) ot the startle reflex of pure cerebral concussion (PCC) suffered from one concussion and multiple cerebral concussion (MCC) suffered from three concussions in rats,and to explore accumulate effect upon cognitive dysfunction of MCC.MethodsA metallic pendulum striker device for closed head injury was employed to duplicate PCC and MCC models in Stragu-Dawley rats.The MCC rats were hit three times on rats'head and it is interval 24 hours for every hit.According to the criteria of cerebral concussion,the investigated animals were divided into PCC group and MCC group at freedom.One control group was used.Each group included 10 animals.Each experience mental animal was tested from 3 days pre-injury to 28 days post-concussion.Startle reflex amplitude (for P values),pre-stimulation induced reflex amplitude on three standard stimulations,that was,67dB,69dB and 73dB (for PP67,PP69 and PP73 values) and prepulse inhibition of the startle reflex (PPI) were collected.ResultsThe P values and three PP values in the first three days of pre-replication experiment,there was no statistical significance in each group.However the P values and PP67,PP69 and PP73 values declined until to the 16th day after injury (P＜0.05),then recovered in PCC group.The P value and PP67,PP69 and PP73 values changes of MCC group declined and not recovered until to test end (P＜0.05 ) and they were more lower than PCC.The three PPI values were a little bit increase in both groups,there were statistics significance at some test points (P＜0.05) compared with control.ConclusionThe startle reflex amplitude and pre-stimulation induced reflex amplitude weaken after cerebral concussion and there is damaging accumulate effect to injury times,the PPI is enlanced by cerebral concussion.
