OBJECTIVE: Complication incidence of urinary fistula which frequently occurs following renal transplantation is 3%-10%. Thus, poor processing may cause loss of transplanted kidney. This study was designed to retrospectively analyze urinary fistula following renal transplantation and to summarize the processing experience. METHODS: A total of 27 out of 1 203 patients with urinary fistula following renal transplantation (16 males and female 11 and mean age of 43 years) were collected from Guangzhou General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Command of Chinese PLA from December 2000 to March 2009. Totally, 26 patients accepted donor kidney from corpse, and 1 from living body. All patients were treated with expectant treatment (n=17) including inserting 18Fr Foley catheter alone and draining from the native drainage channel of operative site (n=12) and inserting a ureteral stent (single-J) by cystoscope retrograde approach and inserting 18Fr Foley catheter into the bladder (n=5); exploring operation (n=10) including anastomosing ureter and bladder and placing ureteral stent (n=5) and anastomosing ureter and ureter of recipient and placing ureteral stent (n=5); pedicled omentum grafts to cover and surround stoma after suturing (n=6). RESULTS: Only 1 case was failed because kidney vain was injured in the second operation and the kidney was resected. Another 26 cases were cured. Within the 3 month to 7 years follow-up, the urinary fistulas did not relapse, no stegnosis or hydronephrosis, no urinary tract infection and renal function were normal. CONCLUSION: Rapid diagnosis and treatment for urinary fistulas after renal transplantation is imperative. First mostly patients may be cured by expectant treatment. If not then perform exploratory operation. Using peclicled omentum grafts to cover and surround stoma after suturing for complex urinary fistulas can raise achievement ratio of operation.

Objective To observe the changes of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets in patients with postoperative colorectal cancer before and after chemotherapy, and to evaluate the changes of immune function status. Methods 74 patients with stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ colorectal cancer after radical resection admitted in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from January to December 2016 were enrolled. 25 non-malignant patients in the same period in our hospital were selected as the control group. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the proportion of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets at one day before the first, sixth and eighth cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy. Results There were no differences in CD3+ (P =0.1532), CD3+CD4+ (P=0.1107), CD3+CD8+ (P=0.2576) T cells in the peripheral blood between patients with colorectal cancer after radical operation and control group (P>0.05). While CD3+CD56+NKT cells (P=0.0210) and CD3-CD56+NK cells (P=0.0045) in the patients with colorectal cancer after radical operation were significantly higher than those of the control group (P <0.05). There was no significant change in the proportion of NK and NKT cells before 6 cycles of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy (P>0.05). There was no significant change in the proportion of NKT cells before 8 cycles (P>0.05), and the proportion of NK cells only decreased slightly (19.10±4.63 vs 20.31±4.66, P=0.046). Conclusion The proportion of NK and NKT cells in patients with colorectal cancer after radical resection was significantly higher than that in healthy people, and the expression rate remains stable after adjuvant chemotherapy.

Objective To investigate the differences in chemical components and bacterial diversity on the surface of Citrus reticulata at various drying temperatures(35、45、55、65℃).Methods At various drying temperatures,Citrus reticulata from Dahongpao produced in Chongqing Wanzhou was dried.By using HPLC,the effects of various drying temperatures on the hesperidin,hesperidin,and kaempferin concentrations in Citrus reticulata were examined.By using GC-MS,the effects of various drying temperatures on the Citrus reticulata volatile components were examined.The differences in bacterial population structure on the surface of Citrus reticulata at various drying temperatures were examined using high throughput sequencing.Results The higher the temperature,the quicker Citrus reticulata will dry.The amount of hesperidin and hesperidin in Citrus reticulata was not significantly affected by different drying temperatures.The amount of Citrus reticulata increased as the drying temperature rose.GC-MS analysis identified 15 main components in Citrus reticulata,and the proportion of some volatile aroma components decreased with the increase of drying temperature;Such as laurylene,linalool,carvol α-Orange aldehyde,etc.With the increase of drying temperature,the dominant bacteria of Proteobacteria has an upward trend.At the same time,the dominant bacteria of Halomonas and Porphyromonas have changed to Metallobacterium.Conclusion If the drying temperature is too high,the volatile components in the dried Citrus reticulata may be transformed or destroyed due to the instability of heating.The difference of the bacterial flora on the surface of Citrus reticulata at different drying temperatures may cause the change of the volatile components in the later aging process.Considering the quality of dried tangerine peel,low temperature and hot air drying is the better drying method.
