Objective To investigate the effect of blood specimen collection from umbilical vein catheter on catheter usage condition and relevant complications. Methods 80 premature infants with indwelling umbilical vein catheter were divided into the blood collection group and the non-blood collec-tion group, then the hospitalization time, catheter indwelling time and rate of catheter-related complications were compared. The 40 premature infants in the blood colleetion group were subsequently divided into the experimental group in which blood was collected from umbilical vein catheter and the control group in which blood was collected from peripheral blood vessel, then the blood collection time, success rate and influence on newborns were compared. Results There was no significant difference in hospitalization time, catheter indwelling time and rate of catheter-related complications between the blood collection group and the non-blood collection group. There was statistical significance in blood collection time, success rate and adverse reaction on suffering newborns between the experimental group and the control group. Conclusions There was no obvious influence on the regular service of the catheter if only the method is correct and operating procedure is normative, also it possesses advantages such as no pain, high success rate, peripheral vascular protection, etc. So, it can be used as one of the ways to collect blood speci-men for critical newborns.

A rapid method was developed for the determination of 5 common fatty acids, palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid in industrial oleic acid based on ultra_performance convergence chromatography_mass spectrometry ( UPC_MS) . The sample was dissolved by n_hexane, followed by clean_up of extract using 0. 22 μm organic phase filter. The fatty acids were separated in 3 min on the column of Acquity UPC2 BEH 2_EP by gradient elution with carbon dioxide and methanol/acetonitrile (1∶1, V/V) system, and finally detected by MS detector in ESI- mode. Through the optimization of UPC2_MS condition, the reasonable linearity was achieved for all the analytes over the range of 0. 5-100 mg/L with the correlation coefficients ( R2 ) greater than 0. 9985. The recoveries for five fatty acids at three spiked levels were in the range from 89 . 3% to 106 . 67% with relative standard deviations of 0 . 8%-3 . 0%. The limits of detection for target compounds in the method ranged from 0. 07 mg/L to 0. 26 mg/L. The real sample analysis showed that this method was simple,fast and had a good separation effect. There was no need of derivatization for fatty acid samples. This work would provide a fast and effective detection method for UPC2 technology in oil related research field.

OBJECTIVETo assess the role of orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) in the treatment of end-stage liver diseases and to discuss the experience of the operation.
METHODSRetrospective analysis of clinical data of 71 cases of liver transplantation was performed in our hospital from April 1993 to August 2001.
RESULTSOne year survival rate of recipients with benign hepatic disease was over 75%. The survival time and life quality of malignant recipients were also improved. Lamivudine monotherapy during the operation period could reduce HBV reinfection rate. The practice of OLT without veno-venous bypass (VVB) was associated with a shorter operating time, less hemorrhape, and thus less blood transfusion during the operation compared with standard technique of OLT with routine use of VVB. The occurrence rate of biliary complications was 5.98% and vascular complication 8.96%.
CONCLUSIONSOLT should become a routine therapeutic choice for end-stage liver diseases. Lamivudine is helpful to reduce HBV reinfection after OLT in HBV-related liver diseases. OLT without VVB is safe and can be performed in the majority of adult patients. The early diagnosis and timely application of interventional radiological technique are important for the treatment of biliary and vascular complications.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the correlation between Fragile X mental retardation gene-1 (FMR1) gene CGG repeats with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR).
METHODS:
For 214 females diagnosed with DOR, DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples. FMR1 gene CGG repeats were determined by PCR and capillary electrophoresis.
RESULTS:
Three DOR patients were found to carry FMR1 premutations, and one patient was found to carry gray zone FMR1 repeats. After genetic counseling, one patient and the sister of another patient, both carrying FMR1 permutations, conceived naturally. Prenatal diagnosis showed that both fetuses have carried FMR1 permutations.
CONCLUSION
FMR1 gene permutation may be associated with DOR. Determination of FMR1 gene CGG repeats in DOR patients can provide a basis for genetic counseling and guidance for reproduction.

OBJECTIVE:
To analyze the (CGG)n repeats of FMR1 gene among patients with unexplained mental retardation.
METHODS:
For 201 patients with unexplained mental retardation, the (CGG)n repeats of the FMR1 gene were analyzed by PCR and FragilEase
RESULTS:
For the 201 patients with unexplained mental retardation, 15 were identified with full mutations of the FMR1 gene. The prevalence of fragile X syndrome (FXS) in patients with unexplained mental retardation was determined as 7.5% (15/201). Prenatal diagnosis was provided for 6 pregnant women with pre- or full mutations. Analysis revealed that women with mental retardation and full FMR1 mutations exhibited a skewed XCI pattern with primary expression of the X chromosome carrying the mutant allele.
CONCLUSION
FXS has a high incidence among patients with unexplained mental retardation. Analysis of FMR1 gene (CGG)n repeats in patients with unexplained mental retardation can facilitate genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis for their families. FMR1 gene (CGG)n repeats screening should be recommended for patients with unexplained mental retardation.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma resection combined with nephrectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 27 cases undergoing retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma resection combined with nephrectomy at the Gastrointestinal Tumor Center , Guangdong Provincial Hospital , Traditional Chinese Medicine from Jun 2017 to Aug 2022 were retrospectively analyzed for the indication of nephrectomy, postoperative progression of renal insufficiency and survival rate.Results:Twenty-six cases (96%) achieved R 0/R 1 resection and 1 case nderwent R 2 resection. Six cases underwent combined unilateral nephrectomy and 21 patients underwent combined multi-organ resection with a median number of resections of 4 (2,5). Postoperative pathology suggested that the combined resected kidney was positive for tumor infiltration in 17 cases. Five cases had Clavien-Dindo grade 3 or higher complications and no deaths occurred within 30 days after surgery. At the 90th day after surgery, 19 cases (70%) had decreased renal function ( Z=2.88, P=0.04), with a median decrease of -3.96 (-30.36, 0.31)ml·(min·1.73 m 2) -1, including 8 cases of preoperative Chronic Kidney Disease(CKD)1 stage progression (6 cases of CKD 2 stage, 2 cases of CKD 3 stage); 2 cases of CKD 2 stage progressed to CKD 3 stage; 1 case of preoperative CKD 3 stage progressed to CKD 4 stage. During the follow-up period of 3-38 months, no patient progressed to CKD 5 stage and no patient required dialysis treatment. Conclusion:Retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma resection combined with nephrectomy is safe and feasible while improving tumor radicality.
