Objective To investigate the correlation of positive margins after radical prostatectomy with Gleason score of biopsy specimens and percentage of positive biopsy cores in prostate cancer.Methods One hundred and thirty patients with localized prostate cancer were confirmed by biopsy underwent radical prostatectomy,the relationship between positive margins rate and Gleason scores,percentage of positive biopsy cores were analyzed.Results One hundred and thirty cases of biopsy specimens,Gleason score 6 group 50 cases,positive margins rate was 10.00% (5/50),Gleason score 7 group 65 cases,positive margins rate was 21.54%(14/65),Gleason score 8 group 13 cases,positive margins rate was 0,Gleason score 9 group 2 cases,positive margins rate was 0,the positive margins rate among the different Gleason score group had no significant difference (x2 =5.917 5,P > 0.05).All the statistics of percentage of positive biopsy cores were 89 cases,1%-25% group 30 cases,positive margins rate was 3.33% (1/30),26%-50% group 27 cases,positive margins rate was 11.11% (3/27),51%-75% group 18 cases,positive margins rate was 6/18,76%-100% group 14 cases,positive margins rate was 4/14,the positive margins rate among different percentage of positive biopsy cores group had significant difference (x2 =9.861 8,P < 0.05).Conclusion There is no correlation between Gleason score and positive margins in prostate cancer,but there is correlation between percentage of positive biopsy cores and positive margins.

Objective To evaluate the validity and reliability of simplified Chinese version Scoliosis Research Society-22 (SRS-22) questionnaire on assessment of life quality of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients at different time points pre-and post-operation. Methods Translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the English version of SRS-22 questionnaire was done. 177 AIS patients were involved in present study and the life quality before and 6-and 12-months after operation was assessed by SRA-22 and Short Form-36 (SF-36) questionnaire, of them 145 cases (26 males and 119 females; 11.1-17.9 years old, averaged 15.8; Cobb angle 41?-109?, averaged 63?) completed all the 3 steps. To evaluate the reproducibility, 65 patients were assessed twice in an interval time of 4-6 days (averaged 4.6 days) before operation and 55 valid questionnaires were received, 65 patients were assessed twice in an interval time of 7-21 days (averaged 14.7 days) at 12 months following up and 57 valid questionnaires were received. The two measures of reliability as internal consistency and reproducibility were determined by Cronbach's ? coefficients and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), respectively. Concurrent validity was measured by comparing with SF-36 questionnaire. Measurement was made using the Pearson correlation coefficient (r). Results The Chinese version SRS-22 questionnaire had a satisfactory validity and reliability, with average Cronbach's ? coefficients of 0.79-0.85 and average ICC of 0.77-0.87. Considering concurrent validity, 2 domains had excellent correlation (r=0.75-1.00), while 12 had moderate correlation (r=0.50-0.75). The function/activity (SRS-22) and role-physical or physical functioning (SF-36), pain (SRS-22) and pain index (SF-36), mental health (SRS-22) and mental health (SF-36) had good correlation (r=0.70-1.00). For the 145 patients, there were some differences in 5 various domains between the three measurements (pre-operation and 6 and 12 months post-operation). The scores of all domains 12 months after operation increased significantly than those of pre-operation and 6 months post-operation (P

Objective To study the cyfluthrin resistance and potential mechanisms of Anopheles sinensis in Nanchang Chang-bei International Airport,Nanchang City,Jiangxi Province. Methods The resistance levels of the local An. sinensis were de-tected by WHO drug resistance bioassay. During the bioassay,the dying mosquitos were classed as sensitive mosquitos,and the survival ones were classed as resistant mosquitos. The P450 monooxygenase activity and glutathione S-transferase activity were detected and compared between the two groups. At the same time,the death time of each sensitive mosquito was recorded,and the correlations between the death time and the P450 monooxygenase activity and glutathione S-transferase activity were ana-lyzed,respectively. Results The bioassay mortality of the local An. sinensis was 59.5%. The differences of the P450 monooxy-genase activities among the resistant mosquitos,sensitive mosquitos and laboratory sensitive mosquitos had statistical signifi-cances(F=151.89,P<0.01),the resistant mosquitos>sensitive mosquitos>laboratory sensitive mosquitos. The differences of glutathione s-transferase activities among the three groups had no statistical significance(F=0.72,P=0.49). There existed positive correlation between the mosquito death time and the P450 monooxygenase activity,and the regression equation was y=79.479+1.512x with the correlation coefficient of 0.88,while there was no correlation between the mosquito death time and the glutathione S-transferaseactivity. Conclusion The An. sinensis in Nanchang Changbei International Airport has been resistant to cyfluthrin,and the promotion of P450 monooxygenase activity maybe one of the reasons for the resistance.

Objective:To analyze the clinical data of 203 discharged patients with corona virus disease 2019(COVID-19), and to investigate the predictors for the severe cases.Methods:Confirmed COVID-19 cases hospitalized at Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University from January 1 to February 1, 2020 were consecutively enrolled, who were divided into severe group and non-severe group.The clinical data of enrolled patients were collected and the clinical manifestations, laboratory results, imaging, treatments and prognosis of patients in the two groups were analyzed. Mann-Whitney U rank sum test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 203 discharged patients with COVID-19 were enrolled. The common clinical manifestations included fever (89.2%, 181/203), dry cough (60.1%, 122/203), chest distress (35.5%, 72/203), shortness of breath(29.1%, 59/203)and myalgia or arthralgia (26.6%, 54/203). The time from disease onset to hospital admission was 5.8 days (1.0 to 20.0 days). Among 203 enrolled patients, 107(52.7%) were divided into severe group and 96(47.3%) were non-severe group. The age in severe group was 60 years (23 to 91 years), which was significantly older than non-severe group (47 years (20 to 86 years)), the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-6.12, P<0.01). There were 63.6%(68/107) patients in severe group with at least one underlying disease, which was significantly more than non-severe group (20.8% (20/96)), the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=37.60, P<0.01). The proportions of patients with increased white blood cells, decreased lymphocytes and albumin, elevated alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, creatinine, lactic acid dehydrogenase, creatine kinase, fasting blood glucose, D-dimer, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, and procalcitonin in severe group were all higher. On admission, 172 patients (84.7%) had bilateral patchy shadows or ground glass opacity in the lungs on chest imaging study, 20(9.9%) presented pleural effusion. Fifty-five cases (27.1%) showed progressions of lung lesions on computed tomography (CT) rescan at an average interval of five days. Among 203 patients, 123(60.6%) were given oxygen therapy upon admission, 107(52.7%) were given short-term glucocorticoid therapy, and 131(64.5%) received antiviral therapy; and 26(12.8%) died. The hospital stay was 11.0 days (1.0 to 45.0 days). Conclusions:Fever is the most common symptoms in COVID-19 patients.Elderly and patients with underlying diseases are risk factors for progression to severe cases. The elderly patients should be strengthened early monitoring, paid attention to the control of underlying diseases, and reduce the occurrence of critical diseases.

Transplantation acquired food allergy (TAFA) is a rare complication of solid organ transplantation. The pathogenesis of TAFA has not been fully elucidated. There are two possible mechanisms for its occurrence: food allergy mediated by IgE delivery of the donor and food allergy caused by food intolerance after transplantation. At present, there is still insufficient understanding of this complication among transplant physicians. Through systematic review of relevant literature, the authors summarized the research progress of TAFA, which mainly included the pathogenesis, clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of TAFA. In order to provide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of TAFA.
