Objective To investigate the clinical value of medical image-three dimensional visible system (MI-3DVS) in percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy lithotripsy (PTCSL) for the treatment of hepatolithiasis.Methods The clinical data of 66 patients with hepatolithiasis (55 were from the First People's Hospital of Shunde City and 11 were from the Zhujiang Hospital) were retrospectively analyzed.The images of computed tomography were three-dimensionally reconstructed with MI-3DVS.The location,number,size,shape of the stones were figured out,and the operation strategies of PTCSL were designed according to the types of the disease.The clinical value of MI-3DVS was evaluated according to the operation results and postoperative recovery of patients.All the patients were followed up via telephone or out-patient re-examination.Results Liver,biliary system,stones and blood vessels were three-dimensionally reconstructed with the MI-3 DVS,and the size,number,shape,location of the stones and location,degree,length of the biliary stricture and its anatomical relationship with adjacent blood vessels were clearly displayed.The coincidence rate of planned and actual operations was 95.5% (63/66).The mean operation time,intraoperative blood loss,rate of stone clearance,complication rate and duration of hospital stay of 63 patients were (117 ± 9) minutes,(18 ± 1) ml,92.4% (61/66),6.1% (4/66) and (15 ± 4) days,respectively.All the patients were followed up till September 2012,the median survival time was 16 months (range,1-69 months),and the recurrence rate of hepatolithiasis was 9.1% (6/66).One patient died of tumor metastasis and multi-organ dysfunction syndrome postoperatively.Conclusion MI-3DVS could effectively improve the safety and efficiency of PTCSL for patients with hepatolithiasis.

Objective To observe the growth situation of Blastocystis hominis in vitro and select the optimal method for culti?vation of B. hominis in different media. Methods Ten positive stools with B. hominis were inoculated in three different media for cultivating,namely 1640,Jone’s medium and vitro medium. And the stools with good growth status and high quantities of B. hominis were chosen to inoculate in the three media with equal amount after subcultivation,and the number of B. hominis was counted every 24 h for ten days,and the morphological changes and growth status were also observed. Results The densities of B. hominis in the 1640 and Jone’s medium were higher than that in the vitro medium 48 h after the inoculation. The same stool sample was inoculated to the three different media and observed for ten days,and the results indicated that the growth of B. homi?nis presented regular changes in the three media,the growth peaks were on the third,sixth and ninth day post inoculation;and the density of B. hominis was the highest in the Jone’s medium. The morphology of B. hominis was the clearest and most dynamic in the vitro medium,while various reproductive forms were observed in the Jone’s medium. Conclusion Jone’s medium is suitable for the growth of B. hominis and can be the first choice for the cultivation of B. hominis in vitro,and vitro medium is the best medium for observing the growth situation of B. hominis.

Abstract: Objective To investigate the molecular characteristics of the H9N2 avian influenza virus (AIV) causing human infection in Yunnan Province in 2019, and to provide the scientific basis for the prevention and control of avian influenza in Yunnan Province. Methods Influenza virus typing was performed by real-time RT-PCR in two influenza-like illness samples, and the Illumina Miseq high-throughput sequencer was used to determine the viral genome sequence. HA and NA gene sequence alignment and phylogenetic tree construction were performed using Mega7.0 software. Results Real-time RT-PCR results showed that two influenza-like illness samples were positive for H9N2 subtype. The full length of HA and NA were obtained by genomic sequencing. Sequence system evolution analysis showed that the HA and NA of the two AIVs in Yunnan Province were in the same evolutionary clade as A/Chicken/Zhejiang/HJ/2007 and belonged to the G57 type. The HA nucleotide and amino acid homology of the two AIVs were 93.92% and 95.00%, respectively, and the NA nucleotide and amino acid homology was 93.31% and 82.03%, respectively. The nucleotide (amino acid) homology of HA was 92.29%-96.94% (93.77%-98.43%) and 92.84%-94.92% (94.18%-96.23%), respectively, and NA nucleotide homology (amino acid) were 91.81%-97.60% (77.82%-94.83%), 94.38%-97.22% (85.47%-94.55%), respectively, compared with that of human infected H9N2 epidemic strains obtained in China from 2015 to 2020. Both AIVs HA protein cleavage site sequences were PSRSSR↓GLF, which was in line with the characteristics of low pathogenic influenza. The analysis of HA protein receptor binding site showed that amino acids at positions 109, 161, 163, 191, 202, 203 and 234 were consistent with the reference strains, while amino acids at position 198 were mutated to T. N166D and 168N mutations were also found in HA protein, and both AIVs had 7 potential glycosylation sites. Analysis of the erythrocyte binding site of NA gene found that there were amino acid mutations at positions 369, 402, 403, and 432, and amino acid deletion at positions 63-65 was found in the NA genes. There were 4 and 5 potential glycosylation sites in the two AIVs, respectively, and no drug resistance site mutations were found. Conclusions The receptor binding sites, erythrocyte binding sites and glycosylation sites of HA and NA genes of H9N2 AIV in Yunnan Province have different degrees of variation, and monitoring and prevention and control should be strengthened.

BACKGROUND: Although the sternohyoid muscular valves are traditionally used as reparative material for functional reconstruction after partial laryngectomy, the late-term results are not so satisfactory.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy of using external layer mucoperiosteum valve of thyroid cartilage to repair the wound surface and reconstruct vocal function.DESIGN: A self-controlled observational trial using the patients as subjects.SETTING: Department of otolaryngology of a municipal hospital.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 57 patients with laryngocarcinoma were selected from the Department of Otolaryngology, Shantou Second People' s Hospital, from June 1998 to May 2004. Among them, there were 56 men and 1 woman who were aged 37 to 78 years with the average age of 60. 38 years and whose disease duration was two months to one year with the average of five months.METHODS: In the 57 patients with laryngocarcinoma, their external layer mucoperiosteum valves of thyroid cartilages in the affected side were preserved and inverted into laryngeal cavities, which were used to cover the wound surface and rebuild the vocal fold.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The final outcome indices: changes in the symtoms and function and Karnofsky scores before and after treatment. Risk indices: adverse events and side effects.RESULTS: The operations on the 57 patients were successful. The incidence of respiratory tract obstruction and hoarseness in the patients before operation was 38.9% and 98. 1%, but 1.9% and 96. 3% after treatment. Karnofsky score was 40 and 70 before and after treatment, respectively. No complications of pharyngeal stricture occurred in the near and long term.CONCLUSION: Vertical partial laryngectomy and laryngeal reconstruction with mucoperiosteum valve are easy to operate. The recovery of the wound surface is good, phonation efficacy is satisfacory, and respiratory function is not affected. The treatment has low incidence of complications and satisfactory long-term results.

Objective To explore the effect of Ligustrazine on neurogenesis in cortex after focal cerebral ischemia in rats. Methods Focal cerebral ischemia was induced by left middle cerebral arteryocclusion with asuture. Two hours later, injection of Ligustrazine (80 mg/kg, 1 time/d) was performed peritoneally. Four hours after the ischemia,5-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) (50 mg/kg, 1 time/d) was injected peritoneally. At 7 d, 14 d and 21 d after ischemia,BrdU positive cells in the cortex were observed by immunohistochemical staining. Results In ischemic model group, at 7 day, sparsely-distributed BrdU positive cells were observed in the Ⅱ - Ⅵ layers of the ipsilateral cortex, with a band-like distribution in ischemic penumbra. With the prolongation of ischemia, the number of BrdU positive cells increased.In Ligustrazine group, BrdU positive cells were also observed in the Ⅱ - Ⅵ layers of the cortex, with an intense distribution in ischemic penumbra. The numbers of BrdU positive cells at 7 d, 14 d and 21 d were more than those in ischemic model group respectively. Conclusion Ligustrazine increases the proliferated cells in cortex after focal cerebral ischemia in rats. The results suggest that it may be useful for promoting self-repair after ischemia.
