0.05).Conclusions The level of plasma Hcy in BD patients are higher than that of in the controls.Hyperhomocysteine may take part in the pathogenesis of BD, but the MTHFR gene C677T genotypes are not associated with BD.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a RP-HPLC method to determinate the plasma concentration of paclitaxel in tumor patients.METHODS:Paclitaxel was extracted from plasma with organic phase(ethyl-acetate)by two-step extraction on Tianhe Kromasil C18 column(250 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m)with a mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-methanol-water(40∶25∶40)at a flow rate of 1 mL?min-1.The detective wavelength was set at 227 nm and the column temperature was maintained at 35 ℃.RESULTS:The linear range of paclitaxel was 0.05～5.00 mg?L-1(r=0.999 7)with average recovery rate at 98.75%～100.44%.Both intra-day RSD and inter-day RSD were less than 5%(n=5).The plasma concentration-time profile in 11 patients after iv infusion of paclitaxel was in line with a two-compartment model.CONCLUSION:This established method is simple,accurate,reproducible and applicable for clinical determination of blood drug concentration and pharmacokinetic studies.

Objective To understand the typing and clinical significance of M-protein,to raise the understanding and diagnostic level through analysis of 639 patients with M-protein.Methods To analysis age,sex and disease of M-protein positive patients,charateristic and content difference of multiple myeloma(MM)and monoclonal gammopathy of undeterminal significance(MGUS).Results In 639 patients with M-proteinemia,there were 409 patients with IgG-type(64%),80 IgA-type(12.5%),79 IgM-type(12.4%),4 IgD-type(0.6%),9 ? light chain(1.4%),18 ? light chain(2.8%),27 double clone(4.2%),oligoclone(2.0%).There were 115 MM(18.0%),13 Waldenstrm's macroglobulinemia(2.0%),1 primary amyloidosis of kidney,19 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma(NHL)(3%),5 chronic lymphocytic leukemia(CLL)(0.8%),473 MGUS(74.0%).Conclusion M-proteinemia is a clinical phonomenon,mainly in MM and lymphocytic proliferative disease.There is an improving tendency in MGUS detectable rate.

Objective To analyse the clinical features,predisposing risk factors and treatment of hematologic diseases complicated by pulmonary fungal infection(PFI).Methods The medical records of 97 cases of PFI were retrospectively analyzed.Results Totally 201 fungal strains were obtained from 97 cases of hematologic diseases.The candida strains were 147(73.1%).Two-fungal infection was 17.5%,and secondary bacterial infection was 71.8%;relative death rate was 23.4%.Cure rate of Amphotericin B deoxycholate and Itraconazole was 67.7% and 63.7%.Conclusion Fungal infection is one of the main pathogens in hematologic diseases complicated by infection.Early diagnosis and treatment is the key to beneficial release and long time survival.Amphotericin B deoxycholate and Itraconazole were effective medicines for treated fungal infection.

Objective To explore the diagnosis and Fogarty catheter embolectomy operation management of acute arterial embolism in the extremities.Methods The clinical data of 87 cases of acute arterial embolism in the extremities treated by Fogarty catheter was ana- lyzed retrospectively,Results All cases were diagnosed through asking patient history and symptom,physical examination and the check of color Doppler while the results were proved by operation.No one case received vasography.After operation,78 cases blood stream of limb had been resumed and cure rate of 87.6% was achieved while 4 cases improved(4.5%),and no occurrence of ischemic necrosis and amputated ex- tremity.5 cases(5.6%)received amputation at the relative level and there were 2 cases(2.3%)of perioperative death.Those cases who re- ceived operations within 48 hours from the time of morbidity achieved cure rate of 100%,while those cases more than 48 hours achieved cure rate of 47.6%,improvement rate of 19.0%,amputation rate of 23.8% and mortality of 9.6%.Conclusion First,Ultrasound Doppler exami- nation should be taken for avoidance of misdiagnosis when acute extremity arterial embolism is suspected.Second,The key Intraarterial embo- lectomy using Fogarty catheter is an effective method for the treatment of acute arterial embolism in the extremities,is significant in application,Third,as soon as the diagnosis is established,embolectomy with Forgarty catheter must be carried out to avoid clot extension and necrosis of the extremity.Satisfactory therapeutic efficacy can be got,if the patient receive operation within 48 hours from onset.

Partial pancreatectomy was performed in a female patient with islet cell nodular hyperplasia, who repeatedly suffered from hypokalemia and hypoglycemia without diarrhea.After surgical operation,her symptoms were relieved.

Objective To explore the imaging findings of branch duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (BD-IPMNs). Methods A total of 45 BD-IPMNs were confirmed by pathology after surgery.The clinical data and imaging findings were retrospec-tively reviewed.Image analysis included characteristics and the nature of the lesions.Finally,an ROC curve was performed to evaluate the differential diagnostic efficacy between benign and malignant lesions using the imaging findings.Results There were statistically significant differences for differential diagnosis of malignant and benign BD-IPMNs in the maximum diameter of the lesions and the MPD,walls,wall nodules,shape,and the atrophy of pancreatic parenchyma (P < 0.05 ).The diagnostic sensitivity,specificity, AUC and Kappa value of benign and malignant BD-IPMNs were 94.3%,90%,92.1% and 0.81 (P =0.000 1)respectively.Conclu-sion The imaging technology is valuable in diagnosing and differentiating malignant from benign BD-IPMNs.

Objective　To study the relationship between the biologic behaviours of gastric carcinoma (GC) and the immune reaction cells of GC tissue. Methods　One hundred and seven radical gastrectomy specimens and 3 to 8 years follow-up data were quantitatively assessed on the reactive degree of lymph-plasma cells and eosinophils with CMIAS image analysis system. Mast cell reaction was accounted in the low power microscopy. Each indicator was divided into two groups, high reaction group and low reaction group, according to the intensity of reactions. Both high reaction and low reaction group were analysed on the base of clinicopathologic parameters. Results　There was a significant difference in the survival time, depth of tumour invasion and lymph node metastasis in GC tissue between high reaction group and low reaction group (P<0.05). Conclusions　Local immune reaction cells plays an important role in the defense mechanism of GC host against the tumour cells invising and spreading.

Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW),and to explore the role of MPV and PDW in the prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods This retrospective cohort study included 312 patients with AMI during 2012 to 2014 in The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University.Patients were divided into ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) group,non ST-elevation myocardial infarction group and low PDW group,high PDW group.Their clinical data and outcomes were analyzed.MPV and PDW were measured successively from admission to day-7 after AMI.The relationship between PDW,MPV and GRACE risk score was further investigated.Results In the STEMI group,the patients were younger (P =0.005),and with higher rates of hyperlipidemia and smoking (P ＜ 0.01).Patients in STEMI group had higher risk of death during hospitalization,compared to NSTEMI (P =0.014).In the high PDW group,the rates of congestion heart failure,cardiogenic shock and Killip ⅣV were higher (P ＜ 0.01;P =0.026;P ＜ 0.01).PDW was significantly associated with mortality of in-hospital,one-year mortality and the risk of re-infarction in one year (r =0.69,P ＜ 0.01;r =0.68,P ＜0.01;r =0.70,P ＜ 0.01).MPV was associated with one-year mortality (r =0.30,P =0.02).Conclusions PDW related to the severity of AMI could predict the risk of in-hospital mortality,one-year mortality and re-infarction.It was helpful to screen out the high-risk patients,so as to make more suitable treatment to improve the prognosis of patients.
