A method of qualitative and quantitative analysis on fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) full range gasoline by comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC-TOF MS) was established. The results showed that paraffins, olefins, naphthenes and aromatics in FCC gasoline had regional and zonal distribution in two-dimensional contour plots. The distinctions of boiling points and polarity between different compounds were used to achieve the accurate separation and determination in GC×GC-TOF MS analysis, and consequently the co-current flow which was often present in the conventional GC analysis was greatly suppressed. The difference of ionizing efficiency between different compounds was modified by response factors, and moreover, a good quantitative dependency was found between the analysis results of GC and GC×GC-TOF MS on FCC gasoline. Due to the high separation resolution, GC×GC-TOF MS gave more accurate results about the group compositions of FCC gasoline. GC×GC-TOF MS provided an effective way with high precision for the characterization of FCC gasoline.

Objective:
To detect the enterovirus VP4 and VP1 genes in 510 stool samples collected from hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) cases and analyze the phylogenetic characteristics of the entire VP1 genes of coxsackievirus A6 (CV-A6) strains in six prefectures/cities of Yunnan Province in 2018.
Methods:
Viral RNA was abstracted from the stool samples. VP4 gene sequences were amplified by RT-PCR and sequenced using the MD91/OL68-1 primer pair to identify viral genotypes. Whole VP1 gene sequences were amplified and sequenced using appropriate primer pairs. The whole VP1 gene sequences of CV-A6 reference strains were downloaded from GenBank. MEGA5.2 software was used to analyze the similarity in nucleotide and amino acid sequences between different strains and phylogenetic tree was constructed for analysis of genetic characteristics and molecular epidemiology.
Results:
VP4 and VP1 gene sequences were obtained from 57 out of 510 stool samples with a positive rate of 11.17% (57/510). There were 43 CV-A6 (8.43%, 43/510), six CV-A10 (1.17%, 6/510), two enterovirus A71 (EV-A71, 0.39%, 2/510) and two CV-A9 (0.39%, 2/510) strains. The other four strains were CV-A4 (0.19%, 1/510), CV-A5 (0.19%, 1/510), CV-B1 (0.19%, 1/510) and E11 (0.19%, 1/510). The phylogenetic analysis showed that all 43 CV-A6 strains belonged to sub-genotype D3.
Conclusions
In the 510 HFMD samples, CV-A6 strains were mostly detected with a detection rate of 8.43% and accounted for 75.44% (43/57) of all isolates, followed by CV-A10 (1.17%, 6/510) and EV-A71 (0.39%, 2/510). There was a large HFMD outbreak mainly caused by CV-A6 in Yunnan Province in 2018. The outbreak was caused by CV-A6 of sub-genotype D3, as was the case with pervious outbreaks in China.

Objective To analyze the genetic characteristics of VP1 3'region of human coxsack-ievirus B2 (CV-B2) strains isolated from Yunnan province. Methods RT-PCR and gene sequencing were performed to analyze the VP1 3'region of 15 CV-B2 strains isolated from acute flaccid paralysis ( AFP) cases during 2005 to 2006, healthy children in 2013 and hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) cases in 2014 in Yunnan province. CV-B2 VP1 gene reference sequences were downloaded from the Genbank. Nucleotide (nt) and amino acid (aa) diversities were calculated by MEGA5. 2 software and a phylogenetic tree was constructed. Genetic and molecular epidemiological characteristics of CV-B2 strains circulating in Yunnan province were analyzed. Results A total of 15 CV-B2 strains were isolated, which were one from 232 AFP cases in 2005, one from 240 AFP cases in 2006, 12 from 400 healthy children in 2013 and one from 500 HFMD cases in 2014. Phylogenetic analysis of the 15 CV-B2 strains in Yunnan province and those down-loaded from the GenBank showed that CV-B2 could be genetically divided into five genotypes. The prototype strain Ohio-1 and one strain (01-1) isolated in Taiwan in 1988 belonged to genotype 1. Strains isolated in France in 2006, 2007 and 2010 belonged to genotype 2. Strains isolated in Yunnan, Shandong, Henan, Fu-jian and Taiwan belonged to genotype 3. Strains isolated in Russia, Yunnan AFP cases in 2005 and 2006 and India belonged to genotype 4. Strains isolated in Taiwan, Shandong and New South Wales, Australia be-longed to genotype 5. Different genotypes distributed in different countries/areas with some confined within specific countries/areas. Conclusions The 12 strains isolated from healthy children and one from HFMD cases in Yunnan province belonged to genotype 3, while the two strains isolated from AFP cases belonged to genotype 4. Diversities in nt and aa sequences between the strains isolated from the healthy children and HFMD case were only 0. 76% and 0. 03%, respectively, indicating that they might come from the same transmission source. However, the nt and aa diversities between the isolates of genotype 3 ( from healthy children and HFMD case) and genotype 4 (from AFP cases in 2005 and 2006) were 15. 11%-15. 22% and 2. 76%-2. 72%, respectively. Correlation of CV-B2 with AFP and HFMD was worthy of further study.

Gastric cancer is a common digestive system malignancy. Surgical operation is the main treatment of radical treatment for gastric cancer. Pulmonary infection is a common postoperative complication of gastric cancer. Because there is no clear and unified definition of pulmonary complications, the current researches show that the incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection of gastric cancer is about 1.8%-18.1%. The incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection will prolong the hospital stay, increase the cost of hospitalization, and even develop into respiratory failure leading to early postoperative death. There are many factors affecting postoperative pulmonary infection of gastric cancer, including age, smoking history, pulmonary function, pulmonary disease history, operation method, operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, gastric tube retention time, postoperative lying time and so on. There are also many perioperative interventions. This article reviews the risk factors and perioperative interventions of postoperative pulmonary infection of gastric cancer.

Objective To observe biomechanical characteristics and advantages of the self-developed anatomical locking plate of sternoclavicular joint by comparison with the radial distal oblique T-shaped locking plate and sternoclavicular hook plate. Methods Nine embalming and moistening adult corpses were selected, including 6 males and 3 females. Model of complete dislocation of the sternoclavicular joint caused by complete removal of the sternoclavicular joint specimen. The bilateral sternoclavicular joints of 9 specimen models were randomly numbered, matched and divided into Group A(experimental group, sternoclavicular joint anatomical locking plate), Group B(control group 1, the radial distal oblique T-shaped locking plate) and Group C(control group 2, sternoclavicular hook plate), with 6 sternoclavicular joints in each group. All specimens were placed with steel plates on both sides and fixed on the universal mechanical test machine. Three biomechanical experiments were carried out, including loading of distal clavicle, torsion of distal clavicle and anti-pull out of sternum handle screw. Results Distal clavicle loading test: the load-displacement of specimens in three groups showed a linear relationship. The compressive deformation resistance in experimental group was stronger than that in two control groups. Distal clavicle torsion test: the relationship between torque and torsion angle was linear. The torsional deformation resistance in experimental group was stronger than that in two control groups. Anti-pullout test of sternum handle screw: there was a significant difference in the maximum anti-pullout force of sternum handle screw among the three groups (P<0.05). The anti-pullout performance of the sternum handle screw in the experimental group was better than that in the two control groups. Conclusions The self-developed sternoclavicular joint anatomical locking plate is superior to the oblique T-shaped locking plate of distal radius and the plate of sternoclavicular hook in terms of anti-compression, anti-torsion and anti-pullout of sternoclavicular screw, so as to provide an ideal internal fixation device for the treatment of fracture and dislocation of sternoclavicular joint.
