Two Pseudomonas strains, K80 - B and K80 - A, can use hydrocarbon as carbon source by two different mechanisms. Different effects can be observed when they are applied to 69-8 oil of Dagan Oil Field. The strain K80-B producing both hydrocarbon pseudosolubilizing factor and hydrocarbon emulsifying factor can decrease the viscosity and solidifying point of the 69-8 oil 51.6% and 2℃ respectively. Whereas the other can only decrease 43.5% and 3℃ respectively. When the two strains are mixed, synergistic effect on crude oil is obvious.

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is recognized as the most common immune complex related to the cause of glomerulonephritis worldwide. The disease is characterized by the predominant deposition of underglycosylated IgA1 in the mesangial area of glomeruli. Dysregulation of the immune system plays an important role in the pathogenesis of IgAN. Abnormalities restricted to T lymphocytes and/or B lymphocytes activation could be a critical causative factor in the over-production of underglycosylated IgA1.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of pancreatic pseudocysts(PPC) in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) in a retrospective cohort study. Methods 460 AP patients with complete follow-up data admitted in Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2004 to March 2012 were retrospectively analyzed,who were divided into PPC group and control group. Age,gender,body mass index(BMI),history of diabetes,etiology,the presence of ascites and hydrothorax,the presence of abdominal mass,the presence of acute fluid collection, APACHEⅡ score at 48 h admission, CT severity index (CTSI), serum albumin, amylase,LDH,ALP, BUN, Cr, TG, TB, conjugated bilirubin, CRP, serum calcium and other laboratory markers were recorded. Univariate logistic regression analysis was used to select the factors that were statistically different between two groups, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the independent risk factors for AP complicated with PPC. Results 143(31.1%) of 460 AP patients developed PPC. On univariate analysis, a total of 11 factors including male sex, BMI ≥28 kg/m2, history of diabetes, alcoholic pancreatitis, ascites, pleural effusion, palpable abdominal mass, acute fluid collections,APACHEⅡscore,CTSI≥7 and serum albumin were statistically different between two groups. On multiple logistic regression analysis, it was shown that male sex (OR 3.23, 95% CI 1.560~ 6.301, P=0.03),history of diabetes (OR 2.23,95% CI 1.021~3.920,P=0.04), ascites (OR 1.62,95% CI 0.652~2.432, P=0.01), pleural effusion (OR 2.43, 95% CI 1.201~7.201, P=0.03), a palpable abdominal mass(OR 1.83,95% CI 0.737~4.320,P<0.001) and CTSI≥7(OR 5.12,95% CI 1.890~14.012, P<0.001) were independent risk factors significantly associated with the PPC formation. Conclusions The male sex, diabetic history, ascites, pleural effusion, palpable abdominal mass and high CTSI score were the independent risk factors of PPC formation in AP.
