Objective To study the feasibility of adopting temporary revascularization during the course of limb replantation in order to shorten ischemia time and accelerate functional restoration of the severed limb. Methods Temporary revascularization was firstly established with various kinds of canals before the routine replantation was conducted. A statistical comparison of objective indexes was carried out between the revascularization method and the routine method. Results The method of adopting temporary revascularization during the course of limb replantation resulted in more satisfactory clinic effects than the routine method. Conclusion Temporary revascularization during the course of limb replantation plays an important role in accelerating functional restoration of the severed limb, and therefore is practically recommendable in clinics.

Objective To investigate the production of carbapenemase and 16S rRNA methylase in five isolates of pan-drugs resistant E.cloacae recovered in Ruijin hospital.Methods MICs of the five isolates to 10 antibiotics were determined by E test.Six kinds of 16S rRNA methylase genes and a series of β- lactamase genes were amplified by PCR.Shotgun cloning was performed to detect carbapenem resistance determinant.The conjugal transfer of carbapenemase gene and 16S rRNA methylase gene was performed in broth culture with E.coli J53 as the recipient.Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) was carried out to analyse the genotyping.IEF was performed to detect β-1actamases.Southern blot was performed to determine the location of carbapenem resistance determinant.Results The MICs of 10 antibiotics were >32 mg/L.Four β-1actamases with pIs of 5.4 ( TEM-1 ),6.7 ( KPC-2 ),8.2 ( SHV-12 ),8.4 (CTX-M-14) were determined.The insertion sequence in the recombinant plasmid was blaKPC-2 flanked by a transposon.blaKPC-2 was located on a large non-conjugative plasmid whereas armA was located on an other conjugative plasmid.PFGE patterns of 5 isolates were identical.Conclusion KPC-2 was responsible for carbapenem resistance in pandrugs resistant Enterobacter cloacae.There was no relationship between blaKPC-2 and armA.Although pandrug resistant Enterobacteriaceae remain rare,the emergence of this group of organism merits monitoring.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods The study subjects comprised of 249 patients with ACS [ 50 patients with ST elevation acute myocardial infarction( STEMI),43 patients with non-ST elevation acute myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), 156 patients with unstable angina pectoris (UAP) ] from July 2008 to December 2009 at Shanghai East Hospital affiliated to Tongji University.The patients were divided into single-vessel lesions group,double-vcssel lesions group and three-vessel lesions group according to the coronary artery stenosis.A group of 205 healthy subjects admitted for health physical examination were used as conuols.Blood samples were collected from ACS patients and control subjects.Serum PAPP-A,creatine kinaseisoenzyme MB (CK-MB),high-sensitivity troponin-T (hs-TnT) were measured by clectrochemiluminesence and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) was measured by immune scatter turbidity method.Analysis of variance ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis H test were used for statistical analysis.Results Serum PAPP-A in the STEMI,NSTEMI,UAP and normal control group were 10.45(5.54 - 16.08),6.56(4.68 - 9.55),5.70(4.12 - 8.50),5.23 (4.00 - 5.88) mIU/L,respectively,and the difference was statistically significant (H =43.94,P < 0.01 ).Pairwise comparison showed that PAPP-A in STEMI,NSTEMI,UAP were significantly higher than the healthy control group and differences were statistically significant ( t =6.80,2.46,1.72,P < 0.05 ).The PAPP-A had a sensitivity of 52.2% and specificity of 80% in diagnosis of ACS.The positive rate of PAPP-A was 44.5% (69/155) in patients with negative hs-TnT.The serum levels of PAPP-A in the three-vessel lesions group [7.72(5.03 -12.46) mIU/L] was higher than that in the single,double groups [ 5.35 ( 4.14 - 8.59 ),6.05 (4.42 -9.58 ) mIU/L ],and the difference had statistical significance( t =2.00,1.57,P < 0.05 ).There was obvious correlation between the level of serum PAPP-A and the level of hs-CRP ( r =0.524,P < 0.05 ),and there was weak correlation between the PAPPA and CK-MB or hs-TnT (r=0.326,0.343,P<0.05).Conclusions The results shows that PAPP-A is elevated in patients with ACS.It may be used as a serum biomarker for vulnerable plaques in patients with ACS and has a clinical value for ACS diagnosis especially in patients with negative hs-TnT.

To investigate the cell-killing effect and its possible mechanism of rClone30-hDR5 in combination with TRAIL on human hepatic carcinoma (HCC) cell line, first of all, recombinant plasmid pee12.4-hDR5 was introduced into HepG2 cells by liposome transfection. After five rounds of screening by flow cytometry, HepG2 cells expressing high levels of DR5 on cell surface were isolated. The cytotoxicity of TRAIL to selected cells was higher than that of TRAIL to HepG2 cells by MTT method (P < 0.01). The result suggested that the cloned hDR5 gene had biological activity. MTT assay showed that, rClone30- hDR5 in combination with TRAIL more efficiently inhibited the tumor growth of HepG2 cells compared to rClone30-hDR5 or TRAIL in vitro. The results of Annexin V-FITC/PI staining and Quantitative Real-time PCR indicated that rClone30-hDR5 in combination with TRAIL significantly increased the mRNA levels of caspase 3 and caspase 8, and induced the apoptosis of tumor cells. HepG2 cells were infected with rClone30-hDR5 or rClone30 at MOI of 1. The expression of hDR5 on tumor surface increased significantly by rClone30-hDR5 compared to that by rClone30, which contributed to the sensitivity to TRAIL. In conclusion, rClone30-hDR5 in combination with TRAIL has potential application value in cancer treatment.

Objective To explore the correlation between exon region polymorphism of PPP1R3A gene and schizophrenia in Uygur Chinese population. Methods PPP1R3A gene exon region DNA amplification was performed using multiple PCR targeted capture next-generation sequencing method in 528 patients with schizophrenia and 576 healthy controls of Uyghur descent, Illumina HiSeq X Ten was used for sequencing, the symptoms of schizophrenia were assessed by positive and negative symptoms scale (PANSS). Results The allelic and genotypic distributions in rs1800000 of PPP1R3A gene between patients with schizophrenia and healthy controls had significant difference (P<0.05), rs1799999 in genotype frequency between the female case and control groups showed significant difference (P<0.05). Furthermore, the allelic distributions of rs8192686 between male cases and controls had significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion PPP1R3A gene rs1800000 may be associated with the development of schizophrenia in Uygur Chinese population; rs1799999 may be a risk factor for susceptibility of female Uygur Chinese schizophrenia; The C allele at rs8192686 may be associated with male Uygur Chinese schizophrenia.
