Objective:To discuss the appropriate thyroid operation for the treatment of bilateral multinodular goiter.Methods: 328 bilateral multinodular goiter patients undergoing surgery in the department of general surgery of Capital Medical University Beijing Tongren Hospital from June 2012 to June 2016. were retrospectively analyzed. Of these patients, 85 underwent hemithyroidectomy combined with contralateral nodule resection or subtotal resection and 243 underwent bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy. The rate of postoperative complications and recurrence between hemithyroidectomy combined with contralateral nodule resection or subtotal resection and bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy were compared.Results: The follow-up time was 1 month to 48 months after operations. In hemithyroidectomy combined with contralateral nodule resection or subtotal resection group 1 patient developed recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy, 2 patients had transient hypoparathyroidism and 1 patient had hematoma in the operative cavity. In bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy group, 2 patients developed recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy and 2 patients had subcutaneous hematoma. The rate of recurrent disease was 2.35%(2 patients) in hemithyroidectomy combined with contralateral nodule resection or subtotal resection group and 7%(17 patients) in bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy group. There was no patient in both groups needed reoperation.Conclusions:Hemithyroidectomy combined with contralateral nodule resection or subtotal resection had similar complication rate compared with bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy, but it had a significantly lower risk of recurrence than bilateral subtotal thyroidectomy, Furthermore, the rest one lobe could be resected for many times which would not cause severe complications. Hemithyroidectomy combined with contralateral nodule resection or subtotal resection is worthed to be recommended.

Objective To investigate the hypothesis that food allergy in infants may be associated with variation in their intestinal microflora. The formation of intestinal microflora in healthy infants and changes in food allergic infants were detected.Methods 16S rRNA gene sequences specific for bifidobacterium, lactobacillus and escherichia coli in fecal were quantitatively detected by real-time PCR. The three fecal floras were assessed in 71 healthy infants and 100 infants with food allergy. Results After birth,there were bifidobacteria colonized in infantile intestine,then the number increased rapidly up to 5 times at the sixth month, which was always the preponderant flora. Lactobacilli was also presented in infantile intestine 1 month after birth and augment gradually. The number of Escherichia coli was less than bifidobacteria and lactobacilli and appeared to decline during the early infants. The number of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in the infants with food allergy were markedly less than that in the healthy infants, but escherichia coli was significantly more than that in the healthy infants.Conclusions During the first year of life,the intestinal microflora in infants is in a developing process. Compared with the healthy infants,bifidobacteria and lactobacilli decrease, but escherichia coli increase in the food allergic infants.These results indicate that the probiotics may be benefit to the prevention and treatment of food allergy.

Objective To construct prokaryotic vector and express human herpes virus 8 (HHV8) small capsid protein open reading frame 65 (ORF65) in Escherichia coli.Methods DNA was extracted from BCB-1 cells (HHV8-positive but EBV-negative).HHV80RF65 coding sequence was amplified by PCR and inserted into the prokaryotic expression vector pThioHisA.Recombinant plasmid was transformed into E.coli BL21 to express fusion protein induced by IPTG.The expressed products were purified by affinity chromatography on Ni-NTA resin.The antigenieity and the specificity of the recombinant proteins was identified by Western blot with HHVS-positive serum samples.ELISA coating with the recombinant proteins was used to screen 568 serum samples,which were simultaneously detected by IFA kit(Biotrin) and ELISA kit(Qiagen).Results Gene sequencing showed that the target gene was identical with that of HHV8 standard species,the 31 500 fusion protein was found in SDS-PAGE.ELISA coating with the recombinant proteins had a good agreement with IFA kit(Biotrin) and ELISA kit(Qiagen).The detection for the clinical samples showed the ELISA kit was feasible,applicable and consistant.Conclusion The recombinant proteins showed good antigenicity,and it is valuable for further study on HHV8 specific antibody detection.

Gene targeted mutagenesis and replacement can be used to modify gene sequence in genomic background without position effect or insertion inactivation in transgenic plants. Targeted mutagenesis organism has little biosafety concerns free of transgenes or marker genes. Gene targeted mutagenesis and replacement in high plants now appears to be a potential tool for gene functional analysis in situ, crops genetic improvement and molecular design. Zinc finger nuclease(ZFN)is most important and would be widely used in gene targeted mutagenesis and replacement through introducing double-strand breaks in genome. Strategies for gene targeted mutagenesis and replacement in plants is discussed. ZFN is described in detail from its structure, operation model and application in plants. Developmental prospect of ZFN in plant gene targeted mutagenesis and replacement is also discussed.

Objective To explore the images and diagnostic evaluation of X-ray combined with ultrasound in paralytic intestinal obstruction caused by antipsychotic agents. Methods The data of X-ray and ultrasound of 124 cases of clinically diagnosed paralytic intestinal obstruction caused by antipsychotic agents were analyzed retrospectively, as well as their rates of confirmed diagnosis. All the 124 patients were examined by erect abdominal radiography and fluoroscopy,68 of the 124 patients by ultrasound. Results According to their typical images,the rate of X-ray confirmed diagnosis was 87.9%(109/124) with 15 missed diagnosis and the rate of missed diagnosis was 12.1%( 15/124);the rate of ultrasound confirmed diagnosis was 82.4%(56/68) with 12 missed diagnosis and the rate of missed diagnosis was 17.6%(12/68). There was no significant difference between X-ray and ultrasound (P＞ 0.05 ). Compared with X-ray or ultrasound ,X-ray combined with ultrasound in the diagnosis of paralytic intestinal obstruction could increase the rate of confirmed diagnosis (100.0% ,68/68),and decrease the rate of missed diagnosis (0),the difference was statistically significant (P＜ 0.05 ). Conclusions X-ray examination is the first choice to diagnose paralytic intestinal obstruction caused by antipsychotic agents,but ultrasound has the advantage of finding fluid in abdominal cavity. To reduce missed diagnosis, X-ray should be combined with ultrasound.
