Objective To observe the correlation of histologicalactivity(HAI) of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) with CCL20 expression, and to investigate the impact of CCL20 expression in CHB infection. Methods On the basis of established competitive quantitative RT-PCR with an internal standard, the expression of the CCL20 in the hepatocytes in different infected patterns of HBV infected cells and liver biopsies were quantified and at the same time its correlation to HAI were explored. Results In the cell levels, the expression quantity of CCL20 in control cells (HepG2), persistent HBV infected hepatocytes( HepG2. 2. 15) are (2. 65 ± 0. 02) pg/106 cells, ( 1.22± 0. 04) pg/106 cells, respectively. There were significantly differences between them ( t = 39. 66, P < 0. 01 ). The expression of CCL20 was enhanced in hepatocytes stimulated by PMA but their expression pauern was not changed. Moreover, CCL20 expression in liver biopsies with CHB was (3.54 ± 0. 65 ) pg/20 mg and CCL20 expression in control groups was ( 8. 74±0. 56) pg/20 mg. The expression of CCL20 between two groups was different (t =30. 09,P <0. 01 ) and correlation lied in between HAI and CCL20 expression in liver biopsies of CHB patients ( r = 0. 675, P =0. 023 ). Conclusion CCL20 expression was down-regulated and it was correlated to HAI of liver biopsies in CHB patients.

Objective To explore the carry rate and antimicrobial resistance of Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) among primary school students.Methods Nasal swab samples were collected from healthy primary school students in Guangzhou.Antibiotic susceptibility testing was applied to test S.aureus strains.Results The overall carriage rate of S.aureus,methicillin-resistant S.aureus (MRSA) and multi-drug-resistant S.aureus (MDRSA) among 1 012 primary school students were 40.1％,1.2％ and 4.0％,respectively.Most S.aureus isolates were resistant to penicillin,erythromycin and clindamycin.The dominant multidrug resistance patterns of MDRSA isolates were resistant to erythromycin-clindamycin-tetracycline and erythromycin-clindamycin-cefoxitin.Multifactor dimensionality reduction analysis showed that the rate of resistance to cefoxitin,tetracycline and chloromycetin among MDRSA was 104.39 times as much as that of nonMDRSA.Conclusions The carriage rate of S.aureus in healthy primary school students from Guangzhou was high and these isolates showed multidrug resistance.These data provide basis for guiding the rational use of antibiotics.

Purpose To oberve the dynamics of liver granuloma and the relative changes of Thl/Th2cytokine levels in mice infected with Schistosoma japonicum, and investigate the role of Th1/Th2 in S.japontcum granuloma formation and regulation. Methods Liver granuloma measurement were performedby histological examination and the ELISA were used for the quantitative determination of IL-2, IFNr andIL-4 in murine serum and spleen lymphocyte culture medium at 0,4,6,8,10 and 12 wk after infection.Results At 6 wk liver granuloma formation appeared and at 8 wk liver granuloma peaked. After 12 wk livergranuhoma diminished obviously. Meanwhile, at 4 - 6 wk IL-2, IFNr and IL-4 began to rise, at 8 wk thelevels of Th1 cytokines IL-2 and IFNγ peaked and then declined, and at 8 wk the levels of Th2 cytokines IL-4 were rapidly enhanced and increased obviously with a prolongation of the infection duration.Conclusions The Th1cytokines IL-2 and IFNγ were correlated well with S. japonicum granulomaformation and vigour, and the Th2 cytokines IL-4 might play an important role in down-regulating egggranuloma reaction at chronic schistosomiasis by inhibiting the Th1cytokines.

BACKGROUND:The incidence of intestinal necrosis during liver transplantation is low, and most of them abandon transplantation and thus leading to death. OBJECTIVE:To retrospectively analyze the reasons which result in smal intestinal necrosis during liver transplantation, and to explore the viable treatment options. METHODS:The clinical data of 207 patients were reviewed, two patients complicated with smal intestinal necrosis during liver transplantation. Case 1 underwent liver transplantation combined with necrotic smal bowel resection. Case 2 abandoned liver transplantation, and received conservative treatment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Both of the two patients had preoperative portal system thrombosis. In Case 1, there was upper gastrointestinal bleeding before transplantation, and repeated application of hemostatic drugs could increase the thrombosis and thus resulting smal intestinal necrosis. At 10 days after liver transplantation, the patients complicated with intestinal fistula and were treated with fistulation. After fistulation, the patient suffered from abdominal cavity and lung infections. At 7 days after anti-infection treatment and immunosuppressant stopped, the infections were cured. At 40 days after fistulation, the intestinal fistula was healed and the patient was discharged after rehabilitation. After fol owed-up for 2 years, the patient was stil healthy living. The Case 2 suffered with mass ascites which lead to abdominal compartment syndrome, the intestinal venous disorders lead to extensive smal bowel necrosis. At 2 days after abandon the liver transplantation, the patient was dead because of multiple organ failure. The patients who waiting for liver transplantation had preoperative portal system thrombosis, abdominal pain and abdominal distention, should be pay attention to intestinal necrosis. Patients with smal bowel necrosis during liver transplantation can be cured with liver transplantation combined with necrotic smal bowel resection.

Objective: To investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in cytokine IL6, IL10 genes and the susceptibility to primary hepatic carcinoma(PHC) of Shunde district in Guangdong Province. Methods: Patients from two hospitals in Shunde District of Foshan City were selected from October 2010 to October 2012. Case group inclusion criteria includedprimary liver cancer; local residents of Shunde or living in Shunde for more than 10 years. The control group inclusion criteria included: patients visited ENT, general surgery and physical examination department in the same hospital during the same period; Local residents or living in Shunde for 10 years and above. The control group was matched 1∶1 by gender, and age (±3 years old) with case group. A total of 306 subjects were collected. Questionnaires were used to investigate the information including demographic characteristics, PHC status survey and so on. The venous blood was collected from each subject to extract DNA, and to detect label SNP site and genotype. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was detected in the control group by the goodness-of-fit χ² test. Multivariate conditional logistic regression was used to estimate the relationship between IL6 (rs1800796), IL10 (rs1800871, rs1800872)genes polymorphisms and susceptibility to PHC. Results: There were 264 males and 42 females both in the case group and the control group, with an average age of (55.84±11.49) and (55.83±11.67) years old respectively (t=0.011, P=0.992). The frequencies of IL6 (rs1800796), IL10 (rs1800871) and IL10 (rs1800872) genotypes in the control group were in accordance with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, which indicated the population was representative (all P values>0.05). Conditional logistic regression analysis showed that compared with the AA genotype and AA+AC genotype of IL10(rs1800872), CC genotype increased the risk of PHC by 2.02 times (OR=3.02, 95%CI:1.21-7.56)and 1.89 times (OR=2.89, 95%CI:1.19-7.04)respectively after the smoking history, eating fish history, drinking history, chronic hepatitis B infection, and family history of liver cancer adjusted. No statistical association was found between SNP in cytokine IL6 (rs1800796) and the susceptibility to PHC (P>0.05). Conclusion The results indicated that people who carried CC genotype in rs1800872 of IL10 gene have an increasing risk of PHC.

Objective To investigate the imaging findings of rare tumors or tumor-like lesions in liver grafts after liver transplantation.Methods Imaging data of 4 patients with rare tumors or tumor-like lesions in the liver grafts of patients after liver transplantation from December 2006 to August 2013 in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were reviewed.Findings of computerized tomography ( CT ) and ( or ) magnetic resonance imaging ( MRI) plain scan and dynamic enhanced MRI of liver lesions in these patients were analyzed specially.Results In the 4 patients, 3 cases were misdiagnosed , including undifferentiated liver sarcoma , secondary lymphoma and eosinophilic granuloma.One case was diagnosed correctly with hepatic metastases of gallbladder carcinoma.The undifferentiated liver sarcomas appeared as cystic and solid space occupying masses with significant and persistent enhancement in the surrounding solid and separating parts .No enhancement was observed in the cystic parts , which increased rapidly in a short term.No edema area around the lesions was observed , but many calcifications were detected.The secondary hepatic lymphoma appeared as intrahepatic multiple nodules , most of which presented uniform signal intensity with moderate enhancement in every phase.No intrahepatic vascular invasion was observed but extrahepatic lymphadenectasis was detected .Bleeding was observed in a few lesions.The liver eosinophilic granuloma appeared as multiple liver lesions with variable signal intensity and enhancement modes , which suggested that the lesions were consisted of variety of elements and in the different disease stages.Most of the lesions were observed with progressive circled enhancement.The recurrence of gallbladder carcinoma and hepatic metastasis after liver transplantation appeared as a intrahepatic hypodensity lesion with slight enhancement in arterial phase and slight hypodensity in portal phase.Retroperitoneal lymph nodes were observed swelled and fused.Conclusions Rare tumors or tumor-like lesions in liver grafts have distinctive imaging features.Imaging examinations are useful for the early detection of these rare tumors or tumor-like lesions in liver grafts.Imaging findings combining with disease history and clinical manifestations can help to make correct diagnosis.
