Objective To investigate the effect of non-hazard treatment of feces on control of intestinal infectious diseases and parasitosis. Methods During Nov, 2003-May, 2004, we selected 6 counties as observational points by the character of geographical position and the types of non-hazard treatment in Hunan province. The number of fecal coliform and the sedimentation rate of parasite ova were measured, the methods of questionnaire and retrospective study were used and the prevalance rate of intestinal infectious diseases, the incident rate of infectious diarrhea and infectious rate of parasite were analyzed. Results Among three types of non-hazard treatment, the eligibility rates of fecal coliform were 95.0%, 93.5%and 91.7% respectively,and the sedimentation rates of parasite ova were 90.0%, 90.3% and 87.5% respectively. Compared with the villages where the latrines had not been improved, the infectious rates of parasite decreased by 67.0%,the prevalance rate of intestinal infectious diseases decreased by 58.3%, and the incidence rates of infectious diarrhea decreased by 56.3% in villages where the latrines had been improved. Conclusion Non-hazard treatment of feces will play an important role in preventing of intestinal infectious diseases, infectious diarrhea and parasitosis.

Objective To investigate phthalate esters in the muscle tissues of fresh water fish in fishponds in Pearl River Delta and Hong Kong,China,Nov,2005.Methods The samples from Pearl River Delta and Hong Kong,China,were analyzed by capillary gas chromatography with FID detector through the procedure of freeze-dried,soxhlet extraction,decontaminating with alumina-silica gel columniation in Nov,2005.Results The concentration of six sorts of PAEs was detected.The concentration of DEHP was 16.10 mg/kg(dry weight),19.81 mg/kg and 11.03 mg/kg in crucian carp,grass carp and tilapia from Pearl River Delta,while being 35.97,37.98 and 26.12 mg/kg for the same species from HK respectively,but the DMP showed the lowest value,only about 0.54 mg/kg.The concentration of DBP and BOP ranged from 3 to 10 mg/kg.Conclusion The fresh water fish from Pearl River Delta were polluted by DEHP,DBP and BOP significantly and the level of pollution is different among various areas.

0.05). No significant association between Q/R 192 genotype and blood lipids was found.Conclusion The polymorphism of PON-1 Q/R 192 gene is not associated with CI.

Objective To explore the CT and MRI features of chordoma and analysis misdiagnosis.Methods The CT and MRI imaging data were analyzed retrospectively in 1 8 patients with chordoma.The imaging findings of the preoperative misdiagnosed lesions were analyzed and summarized.Results 1 2 cases were diagnosed correctly preoperatively,6 cases were misdiagnosed.Chordoma was located in the skull base in 9 cases,in the sacrum in 8 cases,and in cervical vertebrae in 1 case.CT and MRI showed oval or round shape lesions in 12,and irregular shape in 6.14 cases of them displayed clear boundary,4 cases displayed unclear boundary.CT showed soluble osseous bone destruction and uneven isodensity or slightly low density mass.Spot or lamellar shaped calcifications or residual substances of bone were found around or inside of the lesions in 9 cases.MRI showed equal or low signal intensity on T1 WI and high signal intensely on T2 WI.After the CT and MRI contrast enhancement,mass showed mild-to-moderate heterogeneity enhancement. Conclusion Chordoma has certain characteristics on CT and MRI imaging.The combination use of CT and MRI scans has an important value in localization quantitative and qualitative diagnosis of chordoma.

Objective To investigate CT features of primary ileocecum lymphoma (PIL),to improve the ability of CT diagnosis for the disease.Methods CT data of 12 patients with PIL confirmed by surgery and pathology were analyzed retrospectively.All of the patients underwent plain CT, and 8 cases of them also underwent enhanced CT.Results Among the 12 cases of PIL, there were mass type in 2 and diffused thickness type in 10.The length of the intestinal lesions ranged from 7.8 to 18.5 cm (mean 10.2 cm).Lumen was irregular or aneurysmal dilation in 9, and obvious stenosis in 3.Intestinal wall was soft in 10,and rigid in 2.Plain CT showed that the thickened intestinal wall was soft tissue density.Among the 8 cases performed enhanced CT,6 were approximately homogeneous enhancement, and 2 had small necrosis area without enhancement.Maximum intensity projection(MIP) displayed the lesion had blood supply from the branches of the superior mesenteric artery.Enlarged lymph nodes were detected around the lesions, in root of the mesentery, and in the retroperitoneum in 9.1 case was accompanied with intestinal obstruction,1 case was accompanied with intestinal perforation.Conclusion If CT examination found a homogeneous soft tissue mass in ileocecum with long extent, lumen dilation, soft intestinal wall,mild-to-moderate delayed homogeneous enhancement, PIL should be considered.

Objective:To study the extraction for the curculigoside and polysaccharide of Rhizoma Curculiginis. Methods: The optimum extraction was selected by the orthogonal design. The content of total curculigoside was determined by HPLC, The content of polysaccharide of Rhizoma Curculiginis was determined by spetrophotometry.Results: The extraction times affected significantly total curculigoside and Polysaccharide of Rhizoma Curculiginis. Conclusion: The optimum extraction is as follows: adding 8 times amount of water into Chinese medical materials, and boiling for 90 min each time, extracting three times in all.

Objective To observe the curative effectiveness of kidney transplantation on uremic patients complicated with Thalassemia.Methods Forty-six cases of uremic patients complicated with Thalassemia(26 cases of alpha-thalassemia,20 cases of beta-thalassemia)subject to kidney transplan- tation were retrospectively studied as the anemia group.Incidence of delayed graft function restoration, rejection(hyperacute rejection,accelerated rejection and acute rejection)and anemia correction were observed.Time needed for renal function restoration was recorded and creatinine value(Cr)was mea- sured in those patients whose kidney function restored after kidney transplantation.Control group in- cluded 131 cases of kidney transplantation performed concurrently that accompanied with different con- tent of anemia other than thalassemia.Results Incidence of DGF was 26.1% and 23.7% in thalasse- mia group and control group,respectively.Six months after transplantation,39 cases in thalassemia group and 109 cases in control group with follow-up were host and kidney alive.In 6 months,rejection ratio was 30.8% in thalassemia group and 32.1% in control group respectively.Cr value was(121?20)?mol/L and(128?33)?mol/L in thalassemia group and control group,respectively.Ratio of anemia correction in thalassmia and control groups was 79.5% and 76.1%,respectively.No indexes above were found to be statically significantly different between these two groups.Conclusion Uremic patients complicated with thalassemia is suitable for kidney transplantation,with clinical effectiveness similar to those without thalassemia.

AIM To study the therapeutic effect of bone marrow transplantation on mustard gas-poisoned mice. METHODS Mustard-poisoned mice model was constructed by injected mustard gas 20 mg·kg~(-1) subcutaneously. At 4 h, 1 d and 2 d after poisoned by mustard gas, the suspended bone marrow cells (106 cells per time) were injected into mice respectively. After poisoned 3, 5, 7 and 10 d, the numbers of leukocyte and marrow nucleated cells were recorded periodically. At the same time, after poisoned 4 h and 1 d by mustard gas, mice in another group were injected granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) 74 μg·kg~(-1) combined with transplantation and changes of the cell number were observed. RESULTS Compared with poisoned group without transplantion, leukocyte number in bone marrow transplanted group presented ascending trend, but there was no statistical significance until the 10 d after poisoned. However, the number of marrow nucleated cell increased significantly from the 5th day. After mice injected bone marrow cells combined with G-CSF, leukocyte increased markedly in earlier stage compared with transplantation only. CONCLUTION The bone marrow transplantation has significant effects on improvement of marrow hematogenic system inhibited by mustard gas.
