Objectives To determine maximal tolerated dose(MTD)and dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of oxaliplatin(L-OHP)when combined with constant dosing of 5-Fu、Lv and concurrent radiotherapy in postoperative patients with rectal cancer.Methods A total of 21 patients with stage Ⅱ or Ⅲ rectal adenocarcinoma after curative surgery were treated with radiotherapy to a total dose of 50 Gy in 5 weeks.L-OHP was administered at a dosge of 45 mg/m2(n=3),55 mg/m2(n=3),65 mg/m2(n=3),75 mg/m2(n=6),and 85 mg/m2(n=6)once a week for 2 weeks(first cycle)followed by a second cycle after a 14-day break.5-Fu and LV at a fixed dose of 5-Fu 300 mg/m2 ivdrip for 2 h,then 500 mg/m2 ivdrip within 22 h,d1,d2.LV 200 mg/m2 ivdrip 2 h d1,d2.DLT was defined as grade Ⅲ or Ⅳ hematologic and nonhenmologic toxicity. Results Grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ leukopenia,diarrhea,and nausea/vomiting were the most common toxic side effects.and most were of grade 1-2.DLT was first observed in 2 of 3 patients at 75 mg/m2(1 of grade Ⅲ diarrhea and 1 of grade Ⅲ leukopenia).L-OHP at dosage of 85 mg/m2 caused DLT in 4 of 6 patients(2 of grade Ⅲ leukopenia and 1 of grade Ⅲ diarrhea and 1 of grade Ⅲ diarrhea).Conclusions Diarrhea was the most common dose-limiting toxicity(DLT).Tlle maximal tolerated dose(MTD)of L-OHP in this setting was 75 mg/m2 which was comparable to the maximal tolerated dose of L-OHP seen in the neoadjuvant setting.

A method was developed for the determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ( PAHs ) in water by HPLC coupled with online solid phase extraction ( online SPE ) . After filtered, 1 mL of a water sample was injected directly, and then trapped on the SPE column ( Acclaim PAⅡ, 50 mm × 4. 6 mm, 3 μm) for extraction and purification; finally, the trapped analytes were transferred to the analytical column (Hypersil Green PAH, 150 mm × 3 mm, 3 μm) for the separation using valve-switching technique. The mobile phase used for online SPE was water/acetonitrile at different flow rate ( 0 . 4 and 0 . 6 mL/min ) in gradient elution mode;and that used for the separation was water/acetonitrile at 0. 8 mL/min flow rate. UV wavelength was set at 254 nm for the determination of naphthalene and acenaphthylene with no/very weak fluorescent response;fluorescence detection using programmed wavelength switching in three parallel channels was used for the other PAHs. The whole analysis process including online SPE and separation was completed within 32 min. The relative standard deviation ( RSD) of 20 PAHs were all less than 0. 16% for retention time, and less than 1. 3% for peak area (n=7). The peak area had a good linearity with the sample concentration in three orders of magnitude with correlation coefficients of above 0 . 9910 . The recoveries for 0 . 05 μg/L of each analyte in tap water were in the range of 57%-140%, and for 5 . 0 μg/L of each analyte were in the range of 85%-116%. The limits of detection of the method were less than 0 . 05 μg/L ( S/N=3 ) for most PAHs.

Objective To discuss the efficacy and complications of using AngioJet rheolytic thrombectomy in treating acute lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT).Methods The clinical data of 22 patients with acute lower extremity DVT,who were treated with AngioJet rheolytic thrombectomy during the period from February 2015 to August 2016,were retrospectively analyzed.The improvement of clinical symptoms and the thrombus clearance rate were calculated to evaluate the curative effect.The procedure-related complications were documented.Results The clinical symptoms were relieved immediately after operation in all 22 patients.The thigh circumference difference between the affected side and the healthy side decreased from preoperative (4.5±0.6) cm to postoperative (1.0±0.4) cm,the difference in change was statistically significant (P＜0.05).The mean used dose of urokinase was (0.18±0.03) million unit and the average duration of thrombolysis was (4.2±0.7) hours.Complete removal of DVT (＞90％) was achieved in 19 patients,most removal of DVT (50％-90％) in 2 patients,and partial removal of DVT (＜50％) in one patient.After treatment,6 patients developed transient hemoglobinuria,which was relieved after hydration with fluid infusion on the same day.No serious complications such as pulmonary embolism or hemorrhage occurred.Conclusion For the treatment of acute lower extremity DVT,AngioJet rheolytic thrombectomy is safe and effective with less complications.

Objective To investigate the different expression of microRNA-155 (miR-155) and cysteine-rich 61 (CYR61) in human placentas between severe preeclamptic and normal pregnancies.Methods Placentas were obtained from severe preeclamptic and healthy control pregnant women (n=18 for each group) at 36～40 gestational weeks. The expressions of miR-155 and CYR61 mRNA were assessed by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, and the levels of CYR61 protein were tested by Western blot. Results Compared with the control group, the miR-155 expression was increased in placentas from severe preeclampsia groups ( 165. 7 ± 16. 4 vs 527.9±49.1,t=7.00, P＜0.01), and the CYR61 mRNA expression (31.7±2.7 vs 16.4±1.2,t=5.10,P＜0. 01), as well as the CYR61 protein expression (36.4±1.5 vs 19.7±1.2,t=36.26, P＜0.01 ) were decreased. There was a significantly negative correlation between the expression of miR-155 and CYR61 mRNA within both groups (preeclamptic group: r=-0.52, P＜0.05;control:r=-0.57, P＜0.05). Conclusions Up-regulation of placental miR-155 in severe preeclampsia may be related to the decreased expression of CYR61. Both miR-155 and CYR61 may contribute to the disorders of placental angiogenesis in severe preeclampsia in human.

Objective To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of intraluminal implantation of 125I seeds strand combined with stent placement in treating malignant biliary obstruction. Methods During the period from June 2009 to June 2013, a total of 68 patients with malignant biliary obstruction were admitted to Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital. Interventional management was carried out in all patients. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 68 patients, intraluminal implantation of 125I seeds strand combined with simultaneous stent placement was performed in 41 (combination therapy group) and only stent placement was employed in 27 (conventional therapy group). The survival time, the improvement of obstructive jaundice, recurrence of jaundice and procedure-related adverse events were recorded, and the results were compared between the two groups. Results Implantation of 125I seeds strand and stent placement were successfully accomplished in all patients. Statistically significant differences in serum bilirubin levels, which were separately determined at 7 days and 14 days after the treatment, existed between the two groups (P<0.05). No obvious marrow depression was observed in the combination therapy group. The median survival time of the conventional therapy group and the combination therapy group was 123 days and 215 days respectively. The difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion For the treatment of malignant biliary obstruction, combination use of intraluminal brachytherapy and stent placement is clinically more safe and effective than conventional pure stent placement therapy.

Methods Firstly to screen about 700 microsatellite loci from whole genome.Secondly to choose about 100 better loci without defect factors.Lastly 46 primers were designed by 33 tree shrew’ s microsatellite loci obtained from whole genome and other references.Agarose gel electrophoresis and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were used for PCR products, and better loci based on electrophoresis results were chosen.Then STR scan was used to select the microsatellite loci combination for genetic testing.Results Twenty-two microsatellite loci were selected with a significant Stutter peak on STR scanning.Comparing the alternative loci and ultimately selected loci, there were two loci available in the five alternative loci of T.glis.The coincidence rate between T.glis and T.b.chinensis was 40%.There were two loci available in the five alternative loci of T.minor, and the coincidence rate between T.minor and T.b.chinensis was 40%.There were two loci available in the three alternative loci of T.belangeri, and the coincidence rate between T.belangeri and T.b. chinensis was about 70%.Conclusions The 22 microsatellite loci screened in this study are well applied for genetic testing of Tupaia belangeri chinensis, therefore, provide a scientific basis for the genetic quality monitoring of tree shrews.

Objective To investigate the safety and effectiveness of mesh and non-mesh techniques in laparoscopic repair of large hiatal hernias (LRLHH).Methods A retrospective clinical controlled study of mesh and non-mesh techniques in LRLHH form January 2006 to August 2014 was performed.Results A total of 83 and 36 patients were recruited to mesh and non-mesh group respectively.There were no significant differences in operation time,operation bleeding volume,hospitalization time or complications between the two groups.Main symptoms were significantly improved during the postoperative long-term follow-up in both groups.The improvement of dysphagia in mesh group showed no significant difference [22.9％ (19/83) VS 12.0％ (10/83),P=0.066],however,non-mesh group showed significant difference [30.6％ (11/36) VS 5.6％ (2/36),P=0.006].Rate of dysphagia alleviation in non-mesh group was significantly higher than that in mesh group [25.0％ (9/36) VS 10.8％ (9/83),P =0.048].Mesh-related complications of esophageal erosions occurred in 5 patients (6.0％) in mesh group,including esophageal stenosis in 3 patients,esophageal-cardiac stricture in 1 patient.Recurrent hernia occurred in 1 patient (1.2％) in mesh group and 3 patients (8.3％) in non-mesh group (P =0.082).Conclusion LRLHH with mesh should be individualized.The use of mesh in LRLHH reduces the recurrence rate,but may lead to some complications.

Objective:To provide countermeasures and suggestions for the current operation and management of public hospitals by analyzing the impacts of COVID-19 on public hospitals′ operation.Methods:Collection of operation data of 44 public hospitals in Wenzhou from January to March in both 2019 and 2020. By means of descriptive analysis and financial analysis, we analyzed the impacts of the pandemic on the hospitals′ business, revenue and expenditure structure.Results:As of April 2020, even the outpatients visits and inpatient at Wenzhou public hospitals had significantly rebounded, and the downrange for the same periods of 2019 was as high as 23.12% and 17.37% respectively. April witnessed the total medical service revenue of 44 hospitals business totaled 17.44 billion yuan, down 15.43%from the previous year and up 17 percentage points compared to the decline in the first quarter(at 32.54%). As the pandemic moves into a normalized state for epidemic prevention and control, the recovery of medical business was slow, while expenditure of manpower costs and epidemic prevention costs had increased instead. Capital pressure would be the biggest pressure for most hospitals.Conclusions:The hospitals need to further strengthen their operation of fine management and cost control, for sustainable development. It is suggested that government departments should continue to increase effective investment in public health, reduce hospitals′ social insurance premiums in stages, further promote the implementation of online medical service pricing policies, especially Internet hospitals, and relax hospitals′ working capital loan access to ensure liquidity turnover.

OBJECTIVETo assess the association of rs216293 T/G and rs1063857 T/C polymorphisms of von Willebrand factor (vWF) gene with the morbidity of coronary artery disease (CAD) and the number of involved vessels among an ethnic Han Chinese population from Zhejiang province.

METHODSA case-control study was conducted. For 246 patients and 156 unaffected controls, the frequencies of genotypes and alleles of the rs216293T/G and rs1063857T/C polymorphisms were determined, and their association with CAD and the numbers of involved vessels were assessed.

RESULTSThe frequencies of G allele of rs216293 and C allele of rs1063857 were higher in the CAD patients compared with those of the controls (30.3% vs.23.7%, chi-square=4.107, P=0.043; 7.7% vs. 4.2%, chi-square=4.066, P=0.044). The G allele of the rs216293 polymorphism and C allele of the rs1063857 polymorphism were both higher in the CAD patients compared with the controls (53.7% vs.41.0%, chi-square=6.098, P=0.014; 15.4% vs. 8.3%, chi-square=4.361, P=0.037). After adjusting the influence factors by logistic regression analysis, the G allele carriers of rs216293 and the C allele carriers of rs1063857 showed an increased risk for CAD (OR=1.625, 95%CI: 1.060-2.492, P=0.026; OR=2.305, 95% CI: 1.142-4.654, P=0.040). No significant difference was detected in the frequency of both rs216293 and rs1063857 among patients with single or multiple vessels (P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe rs216293T/G and rs1063857T/C polymorphisms of the vWF gene are both associated with the risk for CAD among the selected population. The G allele of the rs216293 polymorphism and C allele of the rs1063857 polymorphism may be the genetic determinants for CAD.
