Objective To investigate the prevalent situations of norovirus infection and genotype distributions in 2014 in Suzhou area .Methods A total of 322 fecal specimens were collected from infants with suspected viral diarrhea at Children′s Hospital of Soochow University in 2014 .Norovirus genogroupⅠ and Ⅱ was detected by reverse transcription (RT )‐polymerase chain reaction (PCR) ,In an effort to identify norovirus genotypes , RNA dependent RNA polymerase region (region A ) and capsid region (region C) segment of some samples positive for norovirus was amplified by RT‐PCR .Comprehensive molecular characteristics of norovirus were obtained by sequence analysis of the same samples in different regions .Results Among 322 fecal specimens ,67 cases were positive for norovirus of G Ⅱ group ,and norovirus of GⅠ group was not found .The genetic fragments of region A was successfully detected in 42 strains .Among all 42 specimens ,there were 35 GⅡ .e strains ,3 GⅡ .7 strains ,2 GⅡ .17 strains and 2 GⅡ .12 strains .The genetic fragments of region C was successfully detected in 53 strains .Among these 53 specimens ,there were 44 GⅡ .4‐2012Sydney strains ,4 GⅡ .6 strains ,2 GⅡ .17 strains ,2 GⅡ .3 strains and 1 GⅡ .2 strain .Conclusions It′s indicated that G Ⅱ .4‐2012Sydney is the main genotype of norovirus causing viral diarrhea in Suzhou ,and other genotypes including the new GⅡ .17 variant ,GⅡ . 7/GⅡ .6 and GⅡ .12/GⅡ .3 recombinant strains also exist .

OBJECTIVE: This study aimd to evaluate the application and clinical effect of improved submental island flap in hypopharyngeal cancer reserved laryngeal function surgery. METHOD: A retrospective review of clinical data was performed on 38 patients of hypopharyngeal cancer reserved laryngeal function using sumental island flaps, by the way of improving in design of vascular pedicle, reconstructive mode of laryngeal and hypopharyngeal function and closing of wound of neck following hypopharyngeal cancer resection. Meanwhile, the effect and prognosis was comprehensively assessed on patients with hypopharyngeal cancer reserved laryngeal function using improved submental island flaps. RESULT: The submental flaps kept alive in all 38 cases. During the follow-up period, 18 cases were dead, and of them, 7 cases died of the second primary carcinoma, included 4 cases of esophagus cancer, 1 case of cancer of soft palate, 2 cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma; and 5 cases died of cervical or parapharyngeal lymph nodes recurrence; 2 cases died of hepatic metastasis; and 4 cases died of pulmonary metastasis. The overall 5-years survival rate was 52.6%. CONCLUSION Improved submental island flap repairing postoperative defect of hypopharyngeal cancer reserved laryngeal function has many advantages including higher success rate, more security, easy and simple to operate as well as good clinical effects, and is worth to widespread using.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the association of sperm mobility parameters assessed by computer-assisted sperm analysis (CASA) with the rates of normal fertilization, oocyte cleavage and excellent embryos in in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles.

METHODSA total of 288 infertile women undergoing IVF cycles patients were divided into two groups according to the normal fertilization rate (≥50% and <50%), cleavage rate (≥90% and <90%), or excellent embryo rates (≥50% and <50%). The means of the sperm motility parameters analyzed by CASA twice before oocyte retrieval were recorded and analyzed using t-test in relation to the rates of normal fertilization, cleavage and excellent embryos in IVF cycles.

RESULTSThe mean curvilinear velocity (VCL), average path velocity (VAP), and amplitude of lateral head displacement (ALH) were significantly higher in women with a normal fertilization rate of ≥50% than in those with a normal fertilization rate of <50% (P<0.05). Women with an oocyte cleavage rate of ≥90% had significantly higher VCL and VAP than those with a cleavage rate of <90% (P<0.05). The VCL, straight line velocity (VSL), VAP, linearity, straightness, wobble coefficient, ALH, or beat-cross frequency showed no significant differences between women with excellent embryo rates of ≥50% and <50% (P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe sperm motility parameters assessed using CASA are associated with normal fertilization and oocyte cleavage rates but not with excellent embryo rate in IVF cycles.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression and biological significance of HMGB1 and VEGF protein in tissue specimens of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), and further study the correlation between HMGB1 and VEGF protein. METHOD: The expression of HMGB1 and VEGF protein was evaluated by immunohistochemical staining in 69 cases of LSCC specimens and 15 cases of adjacent epithelial tissue samples, and futher correlated with clinicopathologic parameters. RESULT: The positive rates of HMGB1 and VEGF in LSCC tissues were significantly higher than those in adjacent non-cancerous mucosa (P < 0.01), and the expression of these two marks was closely correlated with clinical stage (P < 0.05) and metastasis (P < 0.05) in LSCC. While the expression of HMGB1 and VEGF had no significant correlations with age, sex, histological differentiation and tumor site (P > 0. 05). There was a positive correlation between the expression of HMGB1 and VEGF (P < 0.05). The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that patients with strong expression of HMGB1 or VEGF had poorer overall survival compared with that in patients with relative low HMGB1 or VEGF expression (P < 0.05). Multivariate COX regression analysis revealed that both lymph node metastasis and HMGB1 expression were independent prognostic factors for patients with LSCC. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that HMGB1 and VEGF protein overexpression were closely associated with clinical stage, metastasis and poorer prognosis in patients with LSCC. Increased expression of these two proteins in LSCC suggested that HMGB1 and VEGF might play a critical role in the initiation and progression of LSCC.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the synergistic cytotoxicity of TRAIL and paclitaxel on nasopharyngeal cell lines CNE-1 and CNE-2. METHOD: CCK-8 assays the growth inhibition rate of CNE-1 and CNE-2 which was treated with TRAIL or paclitaxel or combination of both. Flow cytometry tests the apoptosis rate of CNE-1 and CNE-2 which was treated with TRAIL or paclitaxel or combination of each other. RESULT: In certain range of time and concentration,TRAIL and paclitaxel inhibited the growth of the cell lines of CNE-1 and CNE-2 in a time-dose dependent manner (P < 0.05). The rate of growth inhibition and apoptosis in TRAIL and paclitaxel combinative group was more significant than that in the TRAIL and paclitaxel singular group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION TRAIL and paclitaxel had a synergistic killing effect on NPC cell lines and showed better affection than singular group, which provides a novel and prospective strategy for NPC chemotherapy.

Five patients with primary malignancies in the pterygopalatine fossa (PPF) and infra temporal fossa (ITF) were enrolled in this retrospective study between January 2012 and January 2018. After malignancies proven by biopsy and evaluation with CT and MRI scan, all patients received modified maxillary swing (MMS) approach for extirpation of malignant tumors in the PPF and ITF under general anesthesia. En bloc resection with wide surgical margins was successfully performed in all cases. Negative margins were observed in 4 cases and positive margins were found in one patient with adenoid cystic carcinoma who received postoperative radiotherapy. The most common complication was facial numbness. During the follow-up period (range 12 to 57 months), one patient suffered from recurrence while others did not. The advantages of MMS include wide surgical field, full exposure and easy manipulation. The MMS approach is expected to become an standard method for monobloc resection of malignancies in the PPF and ITF.
