Objective To explore the epidemic conditions of rheumatic fever (RF) with a simple method at some regions.Methods Antistreptococcal DNase B test microtiter method was adopted to detect human sera antibody in natural populations who are responsible to RF.All 216 schoolchildren aged 10～12 years old were chose by the random cluster sampling.The schoolchildren′s serum antibody against DNase B in each season from september 1988 to August 1989 was detected,and compared with antistreptolysin “O” (ASO);furthermore,5 different regional schoolchildren′s serum antibody to DNase B was tested, and 100 schoolchildren aged 10～13 years old were chose in every region.Meanwhile,the RF incidence of 5～18 year schoolchildren was investigated for 4 years,and approximately 364 915 person times were inquired.All the results of the anti DNase B and ASO were compared with the schoolchildren′s RF incidence.Results ① The levels of the anti DNase B were higher during fall,winter and spring seasons,and lower in summer,which were coincided with the RF incidence,and linear relation was very good ( r =0 913, P

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of reconstruction by using free flap after operation of head and neck tumor. Method A retrospective review was performed of 36 cases who were operated with free flap to reconstruct postoperative defects in head and neck tumor from March 2007 to March 2009, 28 cases repaired by free anterolateral thigh(ALT) flap, 8 cases repaired by free forearm flap. Results The operations of 26 cases repaired with free ALT flap were successful, 2 cases were necrosis. Vascular pedicle flap was 8-18 cm long, mean 12.5 cm, 25 cases were muscle skin perforator, 3 cases were muscle clearance wear. Eight cases of free forearm flap were successful. All of 36 cases recovered well. Conclusions The successful rate of free flap is perfect, and there is no serious complication in doner-site. The flap can be shaped into various forms. Free flap is an ideal measure to reconstruct hypopharynx and to preserve the laryngeal function.

Objective To investigate whether determination of CEA and CA19-9 levels in EUS-FNA pancreatic samples can be useful in detecting pancreatic adenocarcinoma and differentiating pancreatic adenocarcinoma from chronic pancreatitis.Methods Levels of CEA,CA19-9 were examined by chemiluminescence immunoassay analysis in EUS-FNA specimens obtained from 25 patients with chronic pancreatitis and 65 patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma,and compared with those of their peripheral serum.Twelve patients with suspected pancreatic adenocarcinoma while with negative EUS-FNA pathological findings were followed up.Results First,the levels of CEA,CA19-9 in EUS-FNA specimens were higher than those in serum obtained from same patient with pancreatic adenoearcinoma(P＜0.01),but there was no difference in these variables of EUS-FNA specimens and serum obtained from patients with chronic pancreatitis.Second,in the EUS-FNA samples,the levels of CEA,CA19-9 in pancreatic adenocarcinoma were higher than those in chronic pancreatitis(P＜0.01).On the contrary,in serum samples,there was no significant difference in CEA level between pancreatic adenocarcinoma and chronic pancreatitis(P=0.079).CA19-9 level in serum of Dancreatic adenocarcinoma was higher than that of chronic pancreatitis(P＜0.01). Finally,during the follow-up,of all the 12 patients with suspected pancreatic adenocarcinoma,10 patients were diagnosed as having pancreatic adenocarcinoma and 2 patients as having chronic pancreatitis.Diagnostic accuracy of serum CEA and CA19-9were 30%and 70%respectively,while sensitivity of CEA and CA10-9 determined by EUS-FNA was both above 90%.Conclusion The method of measuring CEA and CA19-9 levels in samples obtained by EUS-FNAcan be useful in detection of pancreatic adenocarcinoma and differentiation of malignant pancreatic tissue from chronic pancreatitis.

Objective To evaluate technical efficacy,feasibility and safety of a fully covered self-expanding metal stent for EUS-guided transgastric pancreatic pseudocyst drainage. Methods Data of a total of 11 patients who received EUS-guided transgastric pancreatic pseudocyst drainage with a covered self-ex-panding metal stent at Changhai Hospital from September 2013 to May 2014 were retrospectively studied. The manipulative success rates,curative success rates and complication rates were evaluated. Results All 11 patients were treated by EUS-guided transgastric pancreatic pseudocyst drainage with fully covered self-ex-panding metal stents successfully,with success rate of 100%. Two patients developed infection and displace-ment occurred in 1 patient. There was no hemorrhage,perforation or death. Stents were removed in 7 pa-tients and the pseudocysts vanished. Conclusion Endosonography-guided transgastric pancreatic pseudocyst drainage using a fully covered self-expanding metal stent can be accomplished with high technical and clinical success rate and low rate of complications.

Objective To investigate the extent of radiofrequency ablation of pig pancreas in vitro with various power and duration,and to establish the regression equation of radiofrequency ablation of porcine pancreas in vitro.Methods Among the 4 settings of power (from 5 w ～ 20 w) and 11 settings of duration (from 40s ～ 240s),44 combinations were selected,and every combination was performed twice,then a randomization table including 88 combinations was established,and 88 ablation procedures on porcine pancreases in vitro were performed.The uhrasonography changes were observed,ablation widths (Y) were measured,and pathological examination was performed.In order to construct optimal model and to establish the regression equation of radiofrequency ablation,9 parameters (duration,power,duration × power,the square of duration,the square of power,the square root of duration,the square root of power,the natural logarithm of duration,the natural logarithm of power) derived from duration and power were analyzed via stepwise regression method.Results A rectangular echo enhanced region was observed along the working area of catheter when radiofrequency ablation started,and it gradually became wider during ablation.A hoar-like cylindrical ablation region that was clearly different from surrounding normal pancreatic tissue was formed.Carbonation of necrotic tissue could be observed after radiofrequency ablation under 15 w or 20 w.The optimal model showed a linear positive correlation between ablation width (Y) with the square of power and the natural logarithm of duration.The coefficient of determination of this model was 0.71.Both Fitting curve and Residual scatter diagram showed good fitting effect.Finally,a significant regression equation of radiofrequency ablation was established:Y (mm) =0.005 × E2 + 0.9374 × ln (t)-0.6943.Conclusions A significant regression equation of radiofrequency ablation is established,which provides experimental base for EUS-guided radiofrequency ablation of pancreatic tumors in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the relationship between alcohol and smoking and the development of pancreatic calcification in chronic pancreatitis (CP) in China. Methods The patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of pancreatic calcification at admission and the data were analyzed; furthermore, the discharged patients without pancreatic calcification were divided into two groups as newly diagnosed pancreatic calcification group and persistent non-pancreatic calcification group. Logistic regression and Cox proportional-hazards model was used for multivariate analysis of the risk factors for pancreatic calcification. Results From January1997 to July 2007, 449 patients with CP were enrolled and followed up successfully. 248 patients presented with pancreatic calcification at admission; among the 201 patients presented without pancreatic calcification, 13 patients developed pancreatic calcification after discharge. Patients with pancreatic calcification had a young age at onset, long CP history, higher incidence of diabetes mellitus and diarrhea. Age at onset ≤ 40, alcohol intake over 20 g/day, and diabetes mellitus and diarrhea were risk factors for pancreatic calcification. The only risk factor of development of pancreatic calcification after discharge was excessive alcohol intake (OR: 3.2). Conclusions Alcohol intake increased the risk of pancreatic calcifications, suggesting the patients abstain from alcohol intake. Further studies are necessary to clarify the role of smoking.

Objective To assess the safety of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA)of pancreatic lesions.Methods Patients who underwent EUS-FNA of a pancreatic lesion between January 2005 and June 2007were studied retrospectively.Possible risk factors were assessed by using logistic analysis.Results In 119 patients who underwent pancreatic EUS-FNA,mild acute pancreatitis were observed in 1(0.84%)patient after the operation.No complication occurred in 12 patients with regional portal vein hypertension.Nine patients(7.6%)showed hyperamylasemia 3 h after the procedure,rangeing from 197 to 835 U/L,with an average of(327±200)U/L.Blood amylase level kept increasing 24 h postoperatively in 6 cases of the 9.Logistic regression analysis showed past history of acute pancreatitis,gender,needle size,number of puncture,cystic foci,preoperative blood amylase level and location of foci would not possibly be the risk factors of hyperamylasemia.Conclusion Incidence of complications after EUS-FNA is 0.84%,and the occurrence rate of hyperamylasemia is 7.6%,indicating,EUS-FNA is a safe procedure.
