Objective To explore the relationship of serum level of Cystatin C and suPAR with tumor infiltration, metastasis, and treatment of patients with malignant tumor. Methods: The serum levels of Cystatin C was detected by particle enhanced nephelometic immunoassay (PENIA) by 7600-010 full-automatic biochemical analyzer made in Japan. The level of suPAR was detected by ELISA. The serum levels of Cystatin C and suPARof 82 normal adults and 172 patients with malignant tumor were measured and compared. Results: The serum level of Cystatin C and suPAR in patients with malignant tumor was significantly increased compared with that of normal adults (P＜0.01 and P＜0.01). The level of Cystatin C and suPAR in terminally ill patients or patients with metastasis was significantly higher than that in the control group. The levels of the two indices in postoperative patients were lower than those in preoperative patients. No significant difference was found in the levels of the two indicies before chemotherapy or radiotherapy and after therapy. Conclusion: The serum levels of Cystatin C and suPARin patients with malignant tumor are correlated with tumor invasion, metastasis and surgical intervention. Detection of Cystatin C and suPAR levels in patients with malignant tumor is valuable for disease monitoring and treatment evaluation.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of thoracic close drainage with thin drainage tube assisted to thick drainage tube after video-assisted thoracic surgery(VATS)lobectomy. Methods We ret-rospectively reviewed 89 patients received VATS lobectomy in Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2014 to September 2014. The patients with non-small cell lung cancer were divided into two groups:treatment group (50 patients)and control group(39 patients). Treatment group took thin tube assisted to thick tube of thoracic close drainage and control group took general thoracic closed drainage tube. We studied the operation time,the bleeding of operation,the number of lymph node dissection,time of first activity out of bed,the hospitalization time of post-operation,post-operative complications,the days of post-operative drainage,drainage volume,the effect of drainage,the VAS evaluation score of post-operative pain in the two groups. Results Compared with control group,there was no statistical significance in the differences of the time of operation[(2. 58 ± 0. 57)h vs(2. 57 ± 0. 50)h;t = 0. 127,P = 0. 681],bleeding of operation[(108. 00 ± 52. 84)ml vs(114. 10 ± 107. 18)ml;t = 0. 352,P = 0. 334],the number of lymph node dissection[(14. 20 ± 5. 95)vs(11. 21 ± 4. 71);t = 2. 576,P = 0. 068)],the staying time of drainage[(5. 66 ± 2. 53)d vs(5. 82 ± 2. 02)d;t =0. 324,P = 0. 219],the postoperative drainage volume[(1 141. 76 ± 819. 26)ml vs(1 022. 95 ± 464. 84) ml;t = 0. 889,P = 0. 367]and the occurrences of the post-operative complications(8. 00% vs 10. 25% ;χ2 =1. 750,P = 0. 726). There was statistical significance in the differences of the post-operative time of off-bed [(11. 28 ± 8. 78)h vs(13. 97 ± 7. 83)h;t = 4. 027,P = 0. 045],the time from surgery to discharge [(8. 36 ± 2. 63)d vs(9. 56 ± 2. 89)d;t = 2. 952,P = 0. 043]and the drainage effect(costophrenic angle sharp:72. 0% vs 46. 2% ;χ2 = 5. 329,P = 0. 017). In the two groups,there were statistical significance differences in scores of VAS for the 24 to 72 hours resting and coughing of post-operation:24 h[(2. 78 ± 1. 13)vs(3. 74 ± 1. 68);t = 3. 226,P < 0. 001)],48 h[(1. 98 ± 0. 59)vs(3. 33 ± 1. 72);t = 5. 189,P <0. 001)],72 h[(1. 94 ± 0. 55)vs(3. 15 ± 1. 60);t = 5. 010,P < 0. 001)],coughing[(3. 64 ± 1. 23)vs (5. 33 ± 1. 95);t = 5. 005,P < 0. 001)]. Conclusion The thin drainage tube assisted to thick drainage tube for thoracic close drainage make the drainage more effective,release the pain,shorten the hopital stay;moreo-ver,it is simple and safe for operation and easy to popularize with high modified value.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects and adverse reactions of decitabine combined with IA or CAG regimen in the treatment of elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia.Methods A retrospective analysis was made to observe the therapeutic effects and adverse reactions of 47 elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia,who were divided into DAC+IA group (17 cases) and DAC+CAG group (28 cases) according to the different chemotherapy.Results In DAC+IA group,the rate of complete remission was 29.4 ％ (5/17),the rate of partial remission was 35.3 ％ (6/17),the effective rate was 64.7 ％ (11/17).In DAC+CAG group,the rate of complete remission was 26.7 ％ (8/30),the rate of partial remission was 30.0 ％ (9/30),the effective rate was 56.7 ％ (17/30),the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (x2 =0.227,P =0.716).In DAC+IA group the median remission time and the median suvival time were 4.0 and 8.1 months,respectively.And they were 4.0 and 8.1 months,respectively,in DAC+CAG group.No significant difference was showed between the two groups (P value was 0.835,0.266,respectively).Conclusions Compared with decitabine combined with CAG regimen,decitabine combined with IA regimen has similar effect and can be well tolerated.Accordingly,decitabine combined with IA regimen can be used as first-line treatment for elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

Objective To investigate the distribution and genetic characteristic of etiological agents among children with hand,foot and mouth disease(HFMD)in Shanghai and neighbor areas in 2008.Methods Throat swabs were collected from the inpatients with HFMD from May to June 2008 in Pediatrics Hospital affiliated to Fudan University,Shanghai,and Deqing,Zhejiang Province.Cerebral spinal fluid(CSF)from some patients were collected as well.Vero,MRC-5 and RD ceils were used to isolate the possible pathogens by observing cytopathic effect(CPE).Enterovirus genus,Coxsaekie virus group A type 16(CoxA16)and enterovirus type 71(EV71)were detected by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR),and finally identified by sequencing.Results A total of 107 swabs and 22 CSF samples were collected from all 100 inpatients.Swabs of 50 children caused CPE observed.Among them,enteroviruses accounted for 74.0%(37/50),which including 26 (52.0%)of EV71,10(20%)of CoxAl6 and 1(2.0%)of CoxB3,and 13(26.0%)of other pathogens.All the 26 EV71 strains were similar with the isolates from Zhejiang Province and Fuyang,Anhui Province in 2008,which belonged tO genotype Cl all the 10 CoxAl6 strains belonged to genetic lineages C.Conclusions The causative agents of HFMD are complicated.CoxA16 and EV71 are predominant among children with HFMD in Shanghai and neighbor areas in 2008,while the pathogens of some patients are still unknown.

Objective To explore the effect of topical application of sodium hyaluronate on preventing perivascular adhesion of the vein grafts in rabbits. Methods Thirty-six male New Zealand white rabbits, aged 5 months, were randomly and equally divided into 2 groups: groups A and B. Arterial defect model was established by cutting about 1cm artery from the middle part of the dissected left common carotid artery. A section about 3cm was cut from the right external jugular vein, and the harvested vein was inverted and anastomosed end-to-end to the artery defect. After the anastomosis, the adventitia and two anastomoses of the grafted veins in group A were coated locally with 0.2ml sodium hyaluronate. The grafted veins were obtained 1, 2 and 4 weeks after the operation, with the perivascular adhesion of the vein grafts being examined macroscopically before the resection. HE staining and Masson staining were preformed for histological changes of grafted vein wall and the perivascular adhesion of the vein grafts. At 2, 4 weeks postoperation, the perivascular adhesions of the vein grafts were graded by the grading criteria of adhesion in macroscopic evaluation and histological evaluation. Result At 1, 2 and 4 weeks postoperatively, the macroscopic and histological observation found that the perivascular adhesions in group A were looser than those in group B. The macroscopic grade and histological grade were lower in group A than in group B, there was a significant difference between the two groups at 2 and 4 weeks postoperation (P<0.05). Conclusion Topical application of sodium hyaluronate can reduce the perivascular adhesion and is an ideal treatment strategy for preventing perivascular adhesion of vein grafts.

Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA, Beijing Version) was chosen as cognition assessment implement. 63 patients suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) were chosen to form a research group, and 27 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and normal cognitive function served as a control group. It was found that atherosclerosis played an important role in the pathogenesis of MCI in type 2diabetes, therefore, early prevention and management of atherosclerosis may help to improve the cognitive function.

The structure genes spike (S), nucleocapsid (N), membrane (M), small membrane (sM) of a porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) strain DX isolated in Gansu province, North-west of China, were cloned, sequenced and compared with published sequences of PEDV strains. The nucleotide sequences encoding the entire S, sM, M and N genes open reading frame (ORF) of DX were 4 152, 231, 681 and 1 326 bases long respectively. There were transcription regulatory sequences (TRSs) upstream of the initiator ATG of the S, N and M genes. The amino acids sequences of S, M and N contained 30, 3 and 7 potential asparagine (N)-linked glycosylation sites. Homologous analysis and phylogenetic trees showed that DX had the closest relationship with strains LJB/06, JS-2004-2Z and CH/HLJH/06 that were also isolated from China and indicated the prevalence of some PEDV isolates in China were widespread since the JS-2004-2Z strain originated from the south of the China, and LJB/06 and CH/HLJH/06 were isolated from northeast China. The N gene was cloned using two primers which contained Nco I and BamH I restriction enzyme sites and subcloned into expression vector pET30a. The recombinant plasmid was then transformed into E.coli Rossta. SDS-PAGE showed there was a protein of about 55kDa as expected and Western blot indicated the N protein had biological activity.

To investigate the security of semen biologically, 15 bull semen samples were collected (of which 5 exhibited clinical signs of Foot-and-mouth disease) and identified by RT-PCR and virus isolation. The results indicated that the semen of the infected bulls were contaminated by Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV), but FMDV was not detected in semen samples from those bulls not showing clinical signs of Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD). This is the first report of the presence of FMDV in bull semen due to natural infection in China. The analysis of the partial sequence of the VP1 gene showed that the virus strain isolated from semen has 97.9% identity with the virus isolated from vesicular liquid of infected bulls showing typical signs of FMD and belonged to the same gene sub-group.
