ObjectiveTo compare the clinical effects of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and open cholecystectomy (OC) in the treatment of gangrenous cholecystitis and their influence on inflammatory mediators. MethodsA total of 82 patients with gangrenous cholecystitis who underwent surgery in 22 Hospital of PLA from January 2012 to June 2015 were enrolled and divided into LC group (42 patients) and OC group (40 patients). The condition of surgery and perioperative levels of inflammatory mediators were compared between the two groups. The t-test was used for comparison between the two groups, and the chi-square test was used for categorical data. ResultsAll the patients underwent the surgery successfully without deaths during the perioperative period, and three patients were converted to laparotomy. The rate of partial cholecystectomy, time of operation, intraoperative blood loss, and hospital costs showed no significant differences between the two groups (all P＞0.05). The LC group had a shorter length of postoperative hospital stay, a lower rate of drainage tube placement, and fewer postoperative complications compared with the OC group, but only the length of postoperative hospital stay showed a significant difference between the two groups (t=7472,P＜0.001). The LC group experienced significant reductions in the serum white blood cell count (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) on days 3 and 5 after surgery (all P＜0.05). The OC group experienced significant increases in serum WBC, CRP, IL-6, and TNFα on day 1 after surgery, and significant reductions in these indices on days 3 and 5 after surgery (all P＜0.05). The LC group had significantly lower serum WBC, CRP, IL-6, and TNFα on days 1, 3, and 5 after surgery compared with the OC group (all P＜0.05). ConclusionLC is safe and effective in the treatment of gangrenous cholecystitis. Compared with OC, LC has the advantages of less trauma and faster recovery after surgery and can reduce the release of inflammatory mediators.

ObjectiveTo develop a transgenic mouse model for N.gonorrhoeae researches.Methods Human carcinoembryonic antigen-related cellular adhesion molecules 1 (hCEACAM1) eukaryotic expression vector,pCDPGICAM1,was used to generate transgenic mice by microinjection.The funder mice were screened by PCR,sequence analysis,Western blot and fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis,respectively.The transgenic mice expressing hCEACAM1 were inoculated with N.gonorrhoeae intravaginally.Adhesion and infection of gonococci to mice were analyzed by bacteria culture and microscopy.Results Four (lines 50,53,54,and 59) of the 22 F0 generation transgenic mice were found to carry the transgene.The hCEACAM1 protein was expressed on the cell membrane of various tissues in the line 53 transgenic mouse.Compared with normal mice,N.gonorrhoeae can successfully infect and cause inflammation in the transgenic mice.Conclusion The hCEACAM1 transgenic mouse can be used as an animal model for gonococcal infections.

Objective To evaluate the correlation between microvascular invasion(MVI) and prognosis in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),and to analyse the influencing factors of MVI in patients with HCC.Methods Total of 81 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma treated in Beijing Hospital from January 2014 to December 2016 were retrospectively studied.There were 65 males and 16 females.The mean age was 59.6± 12.7 years,and the age ranged from 21 to 87 years old.Pathological examination showed presence of MVI in 35 patients.Results Total of seventy-six patients with hepatocellular carcinoma were followed-up.The 1-,2-,3-and 4-year overall survival rates in the 35 patients with microvascular invasion of hepatocellular carcinoma were 78.6％,55.4％,38.3％,and 32.2％,respectively.The 1-,2-,3-,and 4-year overall survival rates of the 41 patients without microvascular invasion were 93.4％,76.5％,68.2％ and 68.2％,respectively.The difference was significant (P＜0.05).Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that microvascular invasion was an independent risk factor of overall survival after surgery (HR=3.071,95％ CI:1.239～7.610,P＜0.05).Sub-group analysis was done on patients with microvascular invasion based on pathological results which included the number of MVI lesions,the call number in the MVI lesion,the distance of the MVI to the primary liver cancer,and the gradings of MVI.There were no significant differences in the overall survival outcomes (P＞0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed the maximum diameter of tumor ＞ 5 cm (OR =6.340,95％ CI:2.000 ～ 20.096),preoperative total bilirubin (TBil) ＞ 17 μmol/L (OR =5.067,95％CI:1.386 ～ 18.525),and preoperative alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) ＞400 μg/L (OR =6.042,95％ CI:1.435 ～ 25.444) were independent risk factors of microvascular invasion (P＜ 0.05).Conclusion Hepatocellular carcinoma patients with microvascular invasion had poor prognosis.Preoperative AFP,preoperative TBil,and diameter of tumor were independent risk factors of microvascular invasion in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of oral lesions in HIV infected patients aged 50 years or older in Yunnan.Methods: 315 HIV infected patients aged 50 years and older from January 2013 to December 2016 were included in a cross-sectional survey at the Third People's Hospital of Kunming. The characteristics of oral mucosal lesions and the relationship between the oral lesions and CD4 count level were analyzed. Results: 13 kinds of oral mucosal lesion in 185 out of the 315 cases (58. 73％) were observed. 122 cases were with candidiasis (38. 73％), including 68 (21. 59％) of pseudomembranous type, 52 (16. 51％) of erythema and 18 (5. 71％) of stomatitis; 25 (7. 94％) were with Hairy leukoplakia, 20 (6. 35％) with recurrent oral ulcer, 17 (5. 40％) with fissured tongue, 11 (3. 49％) with herpes simplex. 2 and 3 lesions were detected in 41 cases (13. 02％) and 1 case (0. 32％), respectively. The rate of simultaneous detection of more than 2 lesions and the detection rate of oral candidiasis were related to the CD4 count level. Conclusion: Oral mucosal lesions are common in elderly patients with HIV infection, and oral candidiasis is the main type.

OBJECTIVETo study the expression and significance of tumor suppressor in lung cancer 1 (TSLC1) gene methylation, the expression of TSLC1 protein in cervix cancer and precancerous lesions as well as their relationship with HR-HPV DNA infection.

METHODSThe clinicopathological data of 92 cases of different cervical lesions during March 2011 to August 2012 treated in our hospital were collected. There were pathologically confirmed 10 cases of normal cervix, 26 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) I, 20 cases of CIN II, 15 cases of CIN III, and 21 cases of cervical cancer. Methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction (MSP) was used to detect the TSLC1 gene methylation status in cervical lesions, immunohistochemistry (SP) was used to detect the expressions of TSLC1 protein in cervical lesions, and the second generation hybrid capture (HC2) method was used to detect the high-risk HPV in cervical lesions.

RESULTSThe expression rate of TSLC1 gene methylation in normal cervical tissue, CIN I, CIN II, CIN III and SCC were 10.0%, 30.8%, 55.0%, 60.0%, 66.7%, respectively, showing a statistically significant difference (P = 0.004). The positive expression rate of TSLC1 protein in normal cervical tissue, CIN I, CIN II, CIN III and SCC were 100.0%, 80.8%, 65.0%, 33.3%, and 23.8%, respectively, with a significant difference (P = 0.004). In the progression from CIN to invasive cervical cancer, there was no significant correlation between TSLC1 gene methylation and HR-HPV DNA infection (P = 0.919), TSLC1 protein expression and HR-HPV DNA infection (P = 0.664). The correlation analysis showed a negative correlation between TSLC1 gene methylation and TSLC1 protein expression (r = -0.674, P < 0.001).

CONCLUSIONSTSLC1 gene promoter methylation may be an early event in the cervical carcinogenesis, become an early sensitive marker, and serve the early prevention and prognostic prediction for cervical cancer.

Objective To investigate the antimicrobial resistance profile of the clinical isolates collected from selected hospitals across China. Methods Twenty-nine general hospitals and five children's hospitals were involved in this program. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out according to a unified protocol using Kirby-Bauer method or automated systems. Results were interpreted according to CLSI 2017 breakpoints. Results A total of 190 610 clinical isolates were collected from January to December 2017, of which gram negative organisms accounted for 70.8％ (134 951/190 610) and gram positive cocci 29.2％ (55 649/190 610). The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains was 35.3％ in S. aureus (MRSA) and 80.3％ in coagulase negative Staphylococcus (MRCNS) on average. MR strains showed much higher resistance rates to most of the other antimicrobial agents than MS strains. However, 91.6％ of MRSA strains were still susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, while 86.2％ of MRCNS strains were susceptible to rifampin. No staphylococcal strains were found resistant to vancomycin. E. faecalis strains showed much lower resistance rates to most of the drugs tested (except chloramphenicol) than E. faecium. Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) was identified in both E. faecalis and E. faecium. The identified VRE strains were mainly vanA, vanB or vanM type based on phenotype or genotype. The proportion of PSSP or PRSP strains in the non-meningitis S.pneumoniae strains isolated from children decreased but the proportion of PISP strains increased when compared to the data of 2016. Enterobacteriaceae strains were still highly susceptible to carbapenems. Overall, less than 10％ of these strains (excluding Klebsiella spp.) were resistant to carbapenems. The prevalence of imipenem-resistant K. pneumoniae increased from 3.0％ in 2005 to 20.9％ in 2017, and meropenem-resistant K. pneumoniae increased from 2.9％ in 2005 to 24.0％ in 2017, more than 8-fold increase. About 66.7％ and 69.3％ of Acinetobacter (A. baumannii accounts for 91.5％) strains were resistant to imipenem and meropenem, respectively. Compared with the data of year 2016, P. aeruginosa strains showed decreasing resistance rate to carbapenems. Conclusions Bacterial resistance is still on the rise. It is necessary to strengthen hospital infection control and stewardship of antimicrobial agents. The communication between laboratorians and clinicians should be further improved in addition to surveillance of bacterial resistance.

Objective: To analyze the relationship between clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with acute herbicide poisoning marked diquat. Methods: A multi-center, retrospective clinical study of patients with acute diquat poisoning admitted into Emergency Department was conducted from June 2015 to August 2018 in 8 hospitals in Jiangsu Province. Results: A total of 43 patients (22 males and 21 females) were collected and the peak age of poisoning ranged 20-39 years old. The only route of poisoning was ingestion. Among these cases, suicide was the most common cause of poisoningaccounting for 90.70%. In emergency treatment, the constituent ratios of gastric lavage, hemoperfusion and glucocorticoid were 87.50%, 72.50% and 42.50%, respectively. The total mortality increased to 60.00% after follow-up, while the in-hospital mortality was 18.60%. The mortality of patients with toxic dose < 50 mL was 11.11%. Conclusions The incidence of acute herbicide poisoning with "diquat" as commercial component is gradually increasing. At present, the mortality is very high. Ingestion poisoning dose is the key factor affecting prognosis, and the prognosis of patients with oral dose > 50 mL is poor.
