Objective To evaluate the clinical value of Nevin and AJCC staging system for gallbladder carcinoma. Methods In this study 90 patients diagnosed as gallbladder carcinoma underwent operation in Renji Hospital from February 2000 to October 2006. Patients were staged according to Nevin and AJCC staging system. The difference of survival rate, tumor resection rate, ratio of tumor-free resection margin and surgical procedures were analyzed. Results The survival rate, tumor resection rate and ratio of tumor-free resection margin decreased progressively with increasing Nevin and AJCC stage (P < 0. 05). There was no significant difference between the survival rate for Nevin Ⅲ or Ⅳ patients undergoing radical resection and simple cholecystectomy (P > 0. 05). In Nevin Ⅴ patients, the survival rate for radical and extensive radical resection patients was higher than for palliative patients (P < 0. 05). In AJCC Ⅲ patients, the survival rate for radical patients was significant higher than for palliative patients (P < 0. 05). Nosignificant difference was found between radical and palliative patients in survival time in AJCC Ⅳ (P > 0. 05). 52 patients in AJCC Ⅲ and Ⅳ were staged to Nevin Ⅴ according to Nevin staging system. The survival rate and resectable rate for the patients in AJCC Ⅲ were higher than in AJCC Ⅳ (P = 0. 0001, 0. 001 respectively). The rate of radical operation in AJCC Ⅲ was higher (P = 0. 001), and the rate of palliative operation in AJCC Ⅳ was higher (P = 0. 001). Conclusion Both Nevin and AJCC staging system are useful in the judgement of survival, reeectability, ratio of tumor-free resection margin and the optimal operation. AJCC staging system is more applicable for gallbladder carcinoma patients at advanced stage in terms of predicting prognosis.

Objective To explore the differences of the joint function and the patient's satisfaction between two different methods to reconstruct limb length for unilateral Crowe Ⅳ developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH).Methods The clinical controlled study were used.21 cases with unilateral DDH Crowe Ⅳ treated with total hip arthroplasty were divided into 2 groups randomly.The patients in the first group were reconstructed the limb with the compensatory length and those in the second group were did with the real length.The patients were followed up 10 years.Two independent sample t-test was used to compare these two operations.Harris scores and SF-36 scores were used in the test.Survival analysis with Kaplan-Meier method was involved in the survival of the prosthesis and then test with Log-rank test.X-ray films of different period were compared to confirm the prosthetic loosening.Results Seventeen patients were followed up 8-10 years.There were no significant differences both in Harris score and most of the SF-36 scores at the median follow-up of 10 years.The item mental healthy of SF-36 expressed significant difference.Five patients required revision.There were 10 cases suffered with polyethylene wear,6 cases with severe osteoporosis in greater trochanter,and 3 cases with osteolytic reaction.Conclusion There are no significant differences between the two surgical method in the survival rate of prosthesis and the joint function in the median follow up.The satisfaction of the control groups is lower than the trial groups both at the early stage after the operation and the median follow up.The revision rate between the two groups is similar but the reason is different.

Objective　To evaluate the therapeutic efficiency of reversed lamellar keratoplasty for bullous keratopathy, Terrien's marginal degeneration and ocular chemical burns.Methods　Twenty eyes of patients with bullous keratopathy, twelve eyes with Terrien's marginal degeneration, ten eyes with chemical burns were recruited in this study.Diseased tissues were removed by means of dissection.Reversed lamellae corneal tissues which had been prepared by cryopreservation were thawed and rinsed. Then the prepared posterior corneal lamellae was turned over, endothelium facing upwards. The diameter of the graft should be 0.5～1.0mm larger than that of the recipient bed. The reversed donor posterior lamellae was sutured into the host keratectomy bed with 10-0 nylon sutures continuously or interruptedly.Results　Allograft reaction episode occurred only one (chemical burn) of the total 42 eyes enrolled.The grafts of the rest 41 eyes maintained clear or semitransparent for 1～5 years. Graft edema could be observed within 2～4 weeks postoperatively. Postoperative interface separation was not found. For all 20 patients with bullous keratopathy, the symptoms of pain disappeared. The visual acuity improved 2～3 lines of Snellen among eleven of twelve patients with Terrien's marginal degeneration. The visual acuity improved 2～3 lines of Snellen with four patients with chemical burns.Conclusion　The technique of reversed lamellar keratoplasty can be applied successfully for tectonic reconstruction of corneal surface such as bullous keratopathy, Terrien' s marginal degeneration and also chemical burns.The effects of therapy was satisfactory.

Objective: Establishing the mass spectrum library of a new Campylobacter- " C.fetus subsp.testudinum" for rapid species identification in clinical microbiology laboratory. Methods: Illumina second generation sequencing platform 2000/miSeq was used to carry out high flux genome sequencing for the strains which were collected to establish mass spectrum library.The analysis oforthologous average nucleotide identity (OrthoANI) between collected strains and reference strains was performed at JAVA 8 operation environment. Then, the mass spectrums ofcollected strains andreference strains were acquired using MALDI-TOF MS. And the mass spectrum library of C. fetus subsp.testudinum. were established and verified. Results: The OrthoANI analysis showed that the OrthoANI value of the collected strains and the reference strain C. fetus subsp.testudinum03-427 was 99.30%-99.96%, while the OrthoANI values of collected strains and C. fetus subsp.venerealisNCTC10354 orC.fetus subsp.fetus82-40 were 91.05%-92.26%. With reference to OrthoANI ≥ 95% as the basis for the determination of the same strain, the strains which collected to establish mass spectrum library was finally identified as " C. fetus subsp.testudinum" . The identification accuracy rate of the mass spectrum library was 100% (consistent with gene sequencing), and the confidence interval was 82.3%-99.9%, identification of the same strain is 100% reproducible. Conclusions The new" gold standard" based on high throughput sequencing and total genome analysis has provided the ideal reference value for the establishment of mass spectrum library.And the accurate and objective reference spectrum of the" C.fetus subsp.testudinum" provides a new platform for the rapid diagnosis of fetal Campylobacter infection.

Objective Reference standard of the RPOB(rifampin resistance)gene recommended by CLSI-MM18A(Interpretive Criteria for Identification of Bacteria and Fungi by DNA Target Sequencing) was used to evaluate the ability of MALDI-TOFMS techniques for the identification and classification of non-tuberculous Mycobacterium.Methods Fifty five clinicalstrains were collected from 2012 to 2016 with different sources.The RPOB gene was sequenced, and results were applied to phylogenetics analysis. MALDI-TOF MS technology was implemented to identify the strains, and cluster analysis was conducted based on protein fingerprint.The consistency of two methods for NTM identification and typing was evaluated.Results The RPOB gene method showed a good ability of identification(similarity>99.0%) and subtyping(to subspeciesof the complex level).The French BioMérieux MALDI-TOF MS identified 89.1% of 55 strains to genus level and 78.2% to species level.The phylogeneticsanalysis of protein fingerprint by SARAMS Premium software also showed good typing ability.Conclusions MALDI-TOF MS technology can identify and classify non-tuberculous Mycobacterium effectively,which is rapid and easy.It is complementary to RPOB gene method in laboratory application.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the positive surgical margin and clinical factors such as neoadjuvant hormonal therapy after robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RARP) in high-risk patients with prostate cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 164 patients with high-risk prostate cancer being performed RARP by one surgeon were analyzed retrospectively in our hospital from January 2016 to January 2022. The mean patient’s age was (65.3±6.2) years old, mean body mass index (BMI) was (25.6±3.0) kg/m 2, the median value of total prostate specific antigen (tPSA) before operation was 18.6(11.3, 31.3)ng/ml, the median value of Gleason score before operation was 7 (7, 8), the median value of prostate volume was 29.3 (22.4, 40.2) ml, and the clinical stage was T 2aN 0M 0-T 4N 0M 0. 80 patients with prostate cancer were treated with neoadjuvant endocrine therapy. All of them were treated with complete androgen blockade with a median course of 3 months. Univariate analysis was used to analyze the correlation between age, BMI, prostate volume, neoadjuvant hormonal therapy, preoperative tPSA, clinical stage, Gleason score before operation and positive surgical margin. Then multivariate logistic regression was used to further analyze the independent risk factor of positive surgical margin after RARP. Results:The postoperative pathological diagnosis included pT 2 stage in 111 cases (67.7%), pT 3a stage in 15 cases (9.1%), pT 3b stage in 25 cases (15.2%), pT 4 stage in 13 cases (7.9%). No lymph node metastasis was noticed in all patients. The Gleason scores included 6 in 11 cases (6.7%), 3+ 4 in 26 cases (15.9%), 4+ 3 in 36 cases (22.0%), 8 in 17 cases (10.4%), 9-10 in 24 cases (14.6%), un-evaluation due to endocrine therapy in 50 (30.5%). The positive surgical margin of high-risk patients with prostate cancer was 44.5% (73/164). Univariate analysis showed that the neoadjuvant hormonal therapy, tPSA and clinical stage were correlated with positive surgical margin ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that non-neoadjuvant hormonal therapy, preoperative tPSA>20ng/ml and clinical stage>T 2b were independent risk factors for positive surgical margin of high-risk patients with prostate cancer. Stratified analysis showed that when the preoperative tPSA was 10-20 ng/ml(21.1% vs.55.9%, P=0.014), the clinical stage was T 2c(29.6% vs.49.1%, P=0.040), the Gleason score before operation was 7(19.4% vs.54.1%, P=0.003), the positive surgical margin of high-risk patients in the neoadjuvant hormonal therapy group was significantly lower than that in the non-neoadjuvant hormonal therapy group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Non-neoadjuvant hormonal therapy, preoperative tPSA>20 ng/ml and clinical stage>T 2b were independent risk factors for positive surgical margin of RARP in the high-risk patients with prostate cancer. For high-risk patients with preoperative tPSA of 10-20 ng/ml, clinical stage of T 2c and Gleason score before operation of 7, neoadjuvant hormonal therapy has important clinical significance in reducing the positive surgical margin of RARP.
