Fudan University Journal of Medical Sciences 2017;44(4):489-492
Objective To investigate the information obtained by bile culture and susceptibility testing as while factors like styles of obstruction,abdominal surgical history,degree and time of jaundice related to bacterial infection of biliary tract for patients with malignant obstructive jaundice (MOJ).Methods A total of 93 patients with MOJ received percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) during Jan.,2015 and Mar.,2016.Bile specimens were collected during the procedure for bacterial culture and susceptibility.Results A rate of 60.2% (56/93) patients had a positive bile culture and 58 strains were identified,in which gram-positive bacteria accounted for 36.2 % (21/58) and gram-negative bacteria accounted for 63.8 % (37/58).The most common bacteria were Enterococcus Faecalis,Escherichia Coli,Klebsiella Pneumonia and Staphylococcus Epidermidis.Conclusions The bile cultures indicated that a different antibacterial therapy should be managed in the patients of biliary infection complicated by malignant biliary jaundice.Low obstruction and abdominal surgery history are independent factors related to infection,while time and degree of jaundice shows no relationship to infection.

5 male adults were studied in continuous bed rest for 16 days. The total body fat was measured by modified water displacement method (density method). The loss of body protein was measured by calculating nitrogen balance. The results have shown that during the experimental peroid their body protein decreased by 167 to 376 g and the body fat increased by 1.28?0.38kg. The average caloric requirement was 1958 ? 242 kcal/man/day, 32.3?1.6 kcal/kgBW/day or 36.1?1.4 kcal/kg LBW/day. These results are similar to those provided by other methods such as dietary survey or gas metabolism.

Objective To explore the differentially expressed genes of gastric cancer,matched normal gastric tissue and premalignant lesions. Methods The differentially expressed cDNA bands were isolated and identified by fluorescent differential display and then reamplified by PCR.After being cloned,all cDNA fragments were sequenced. Through BLAST,the results were compared with GenBank database for homology analysis. The expression of the cDNA fragment in different tissues was confirmed by Northern blot. SMART-RACE(rapid amplication of cDNA ends) was used to amplify the full length cDNA sequence. Bioinformatics analysis was performed to analysis its function. Results A differentially expressed cDNA fragment expressed lower in gastric cancers and premalignant lesions,no homology was found in GenBank. The novel cDNA fragment was given an accession number of EST(CD454989)in GenBank. A full length cDNA sequence of 1362 bp was acquired,who coded 267 amino acids,and was homologous with BAA91562.1,whose physiology function was unknown. Conclusion A differentially expressed gene was found and it may be involved in process of the gastric cancer.

Aim To investigate the effects of 4-aminopyridine (4-AP),K+ channel blocker, on the gastrointestinal function of murine. Methods Charcoal suspension was used to detect the effects of 4-AP on gastrointestinal motility of mice in vivo, contraction of isolated fundus longitudinal strips and duodenum of rats were studied in vitro,gastric acid secretion was measured by Gastric Secretion Test. Results 4-AP(5 mg?kg -1,ig)inhibited the gastrointestinal motility of mice. 4-AP(5 mmol?L -1) increased the maximum contractive force and minimum relaxation force, decreased the amplitude and frequency of the isolated duodenum peristaltic contraction. 4-AP(2.5 mg?kg -1,ip) significantly enhanced gastric acid secretion of rats. Conclusion 4-AP inhibited gastrointestinal motility and enhanced gastric acid secretion in murine.

Objective To probe the application of umbilical vein catheterization among the verylow-birth-weight or the low-birth-weight children.Methods In this retrospective study,the clinical condition of the very-low-birth-weight or the low-birth-weight infants in neonatal intensive care unit who had umbilical vein catheterization from June 2011 to January 2013 was concluded.Results Sixty-three cases were successfully catheterized,of which 41 cases were catheterized in inferior vena cava(65.1%).The retention time was 4 to 21 days,with an average of 12.9 days.Eleven cases suffered unplanned extubation of the indwelling catheters,and eight of them were located in the umbilical vein.There were statistically significant differences of unplanned extubation rates among different location of the catheters (x2 =8.38,P < 0.01).All cases were intubated within 36 hours after birth,and the intubation time was not positively correlated to the success rate of catheterization in the inferior vena cava (x2 =0.223,P > 0.1).Suspected catheter-related infections occurred in 5 cases and the infection rate was 6.2/1000 per intravascular catheter day.After extubation,bacterial cultures of the tips of the catheters and blood were arranged.The results suggest that the bacterial culture of the catheter tip was positive in only 1 case(1.6%),and yeast-like fungus was positive in 1 case (1.6%),while the retention time and incidence of catheter-related infection had no significant corelation(x2 =0.075,P > 0.95).Conclusion Umbilical vein catheterization could be used at the early stage in preterm (very) low-birth-weight infants.

Results Membrane protein OprD was analyzed in 7 clinical isolates of imipenem-intermediate P. aeruginosa. Two strains were devoid of OprD proteins and the corresponding oprD genes were found disrupted by the insertion element ISRP10 in the coding regions. Five strains had OprD proteins with different sizes. Sequence analysis showed that the peptides ranged from 427 to 443 amino acids. Multiple amino acid substitutions and / or deletions were found within the Loop 1 through Loop 8 of the OprD secondary structures. Conclusions ISRP10 inactivation and amino acid substitutions in oprD gene confer imipenem resistance in the clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the matrix formula of Lanlian ertong qingre cataplasm. METHODS:Taking adhesion force,peel strength and sensory description as index,the ratio of matrix framework material(sodium polyacrylate-gan hydroxyl alu-minum-tartaric acid-glycerin) was optimized with orthogonal test. The single factor test was adopted to select adhesive and filler;the amount of penetrating agent azone was screened using the in vitro penetration amount of phillyrin. RESULTS:The best matrix ratio of Lanlian ertong qingre cataplasm was sodium polyacrylate-gan hydroxyl aluminum-tartaric acid-glycerin(4.0:0.8:0.4:15);PVP K-90 was used as adhesive,and bolus alba as filler;penetration enhancers azone accounted for 2.0%. Validation test showed, prepared cataplasm had good appearance,could stick on the 5th or the 6th ball;it's peel strength was 7.5 N;all RSDs of score were lower than 4%(n=3). CONCLUSIONS:The optimized matrix formula of Lanlian ertong qingre cataplasm is simple,stable and good in molding.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of bilateral thyroid carcinoma(BTC).Methods Clinical data of 68 cases with BTC from July 2001 to July 2008 were analyzed retrospectively.Results All patients underwent surgical treatment.22 cases received total thyroidectomy and bilateral functional neck dissection,30 cases received total thyroidectomy and unilateral functional neck dissection,14 cases received total thyroidectomy and lymph node dissection of Ⅵ area,2 cases received palliative resection.12 cases received proper radioactive 131I therapy after operation.Postoperative complications occured in 16 cases,including 5 cases with transient recurrent nerve paralysis,1 case with permanent injury of recurrent laryngeal nerves received trachea incision,1 case with tracheomalacia and asphyxia,6 cases with convulsion caused by hypocalcemia,1 case with permanent hypoparathyroidism,2 cases with chylous fistula(one was cured by saturing and ligaturing and the other by conservative treatment).Low echo solid or cystic solid nodules in thyroid were found by preoperative ultrasonic scan in all cases,in which 38(55.88%)cases were associated with gravel calcified lesion in thyroid nodules.The diagnosis was comfirmed by needle aspiration biopsy(NAB)in 42 cases preoperatively and 64 cases(94.12%)by frozen section intraoperatively.63(92.64%)cases were followed up postoperatively for a period from 6 months to 5 years,all 5 cases with recurrence and/or metastasis had tumor-free survival after reoperation except for 1 case with undifferentiated cancer died on the 6th month after operation.Conclusions Total thyroidectomy and lymph node dissection is essential to the treatment of BTC.Gravel calcified lesion revealed by preoperative high frequency ultrasonagraphy is an important characteristic for preoperative diagnosis of thyroid cancer.
