Objective To explore the influence of Al2O3 nanoparticle (20nm in average) on RP4-mediated conjugation and its mechanism was explored further. Methods Mating was conducted between E.coli HB101(RP4) and Salmonella aberdeen Kauffmann 50312(strR) in saline at 25 ℃ without stirring for 8 h,the concentrations of Al2O3 nanoparticle were 0.005,0.05,0.5,5,50 mmol/L respectively. The initial concentration of donor and recipient were both about 109 cfu/ml(donor per recipient ratio was 1∶3).Later transmission electron microscope(TEM) and laser scan confocal microscope (LSCM) were exploited to investigate cell morphology and structure. Results 5 mmol/L and 50 mmol/L Al2O3 nanoparticle could increase the conjugal transfer frequency by 150-fold and 40-fold respectively. TEM observation on thin section indicated several bacterial were prone to form conjugational junction together in 5 mmol/L and 50 mmol/L Al2O3 nanoparticle treated group,which was rarely seen in control group. Meanwhile the cell envelope of bacterial was significantly damaged upon the treatment by 50 mmol/L Al2O3,which might be the reason why transfer frequency of 50 mmol/L Al2O3 group was less than 5 mmol/L Al2O3 group. LSCM result indicated that Al2O3 nanoparticle might damage cell envelope and the damage was positively related to the accumulation of Al2O3 in bacterial. Conclusion Al2O3 nanoparticle can stimulate RP4 conjugal transfer. Conjugative gene is highly regulated. Al2O3 nanoparticle might modulate conjugative gene expression directly or influence cell membrane permeability and thus modulate the process of conjugation indirectly .

[Objective]To discuss the common complications and the methods of prevention and treatment in the operation of displaced acetabular fracture.[Method]Sixty-six cases with displaced aceuabular fracture were treated operatively from August 2005 to June 2009.Approach included anterior ilioinguinal approach,posterior Kocher-Langenbeck approach,or combined ilioinguinal and Kocher-Langenbeck approach.The functional results and complications were analyzed.[Result]All cases were followed up for an average of 29 months(12-46 months).According to the Matta evaluation,the anatomical reduction of acetabular fracture were in 34 cases,perfect in 25,and unsatisfactory in 7.According to the modified Merle d' Aubigne and Postel clinical evaluation standard,the clinical outcome was graded as being excellent in 23 cases,good in 29,fair in 8,poor in 6.Sciatic nerve injury after operation were noted in 2 hips,osteoarthritis in 14,heterotopic ossification in 10,and avascular necrosis of femoral head in 2.No infection and death were founded in this group.[Conclusion]The important factors to decrease the operative complications of acetabular fracture include correct fracture classification,suitable operative time,good operative approach,proficient technique of reduction and fixation and reasonable perioperative measures.

Objective To compare the differences between laparoscopic-assisted and open resection of rectal carcinoma in respect of peri-operative levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), rest energy expenditure (REE), and visceral proteins. Methods According to patients' choice of operation, either laparoscopic-assisted (n=20, Laparoscopic Group) or open (n=25, Open Group) resection of rectal carcinoma was performed. The levels of CRP and visceral proteins-including albumin (ALB), prealbumin (PRE), transferrin (TRF), and retinal-binding protein (RbP)-were assayed preoperatively and on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd day postoperatively. The levels of REE were also measured by indirect calorimetry in the morning. Results Compared with the preoperative period, the CRP levels in both groups were significantly increased on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd day (P0.05). The levels of PRE in the Laparoscopic Group were significantly higher than those in the Open Group on the 2nd postoperative day (P

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of atlantoaxial pedicle screw fixation plus bony fusion in treatment of traumatic upper cervical instability.Methods From October 2009 to August 2013,29 patients with traumatic upper cervical spine instability were treated with posterior atlantoaxial pedicle screws.The patients underwent autografting (n =19) and allografting (n =10) for spinal fusion.Surrcal outcomes were recorded including intraopcrativc blood loss,operation time,with or without nerve,blood vessel and spinal cord injury,wound healing and bone fusion rate.Results All operations were completed smoothly with operation time of 110 minutes (range,85-135 minutes) and blood loss of 150 ml (range,80-500 ml).At the follow-up of 10 months to 5 years (mean 18 months),bony fusion was detected for all the patients.Postoperative radiographs verified all patients were bony fusion with satisfactory cervical spine stability.No complications of reduction loss,fixation failure,and spinal cord or vertebral artery injury were observed except for 1 patient with low viruleut infection and 2 with delayed wound healing.Conclusion Single posterior atlantoaxial pedicle screw fixation provides security and reliable stability in treatment of upper cervical instability,however wound healing problems should be taken seriously.

Objective To investigate the potential differences in efficacy of anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments(ACL &PCL)reconstruction by using arthroscopy between autologous tendon and tendon allograft.Methods A total of 144 patients with ACL or PCL fracture were assigned into two groups,namely anterior tibial muscle tendons allograft(n =82)and tendons autograft(n =63).The graft was fixed by using the Endobutton and Intrafix systems. The general information,drawer test,Lachman test,IKDC score,Lysholm score and Tegner score were compared between groups before and after surgery.The mean follow -up period was 16 months,ranged from 6 to 24 months. Results Both two groups received significant improvement after surgery and met the requirements of ligament reconstruction.However,those patients received autologous tendon had less complications,better knee stability.There were significant differences in Lachman score,ADT/PDT score,IKDC score[(83.43 ±4.37)points vs.(81.05 ± 4.41)points],Lysholm score [(90.59 ±3.43)points vs.(89.03 ±3.25 )points],and Tegner score [(7.79 ± 0.94)points vs.(7.37 ±0.90)points]between the two groups in 12 -month(χ2 =9.509,9.080,t =3.237,2.770, 2.729,all P <0.05).Conclusion The efficacy of autologous tendon is better than tendon allograft in anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments reconstruction,which should be considered has highest priority in treating patients with anterior or posterior cruciate ligaments fracture.

Objective To study and evaluate the MRI findings and their diagnostic value for breast carcinoma.Methods Preoperative contrast-enhanced MR imaging and mammography were performed in 12 patients who underwent surgery and were histopathologically proved with breast carcinoma.MR imaging findings were compared with clearly mammography.Results Twenty-one breast lesions in 12 cases were detected with MR imaging.Seventeen of the twenty-one lesions were detected with mammography.Contrast-enhanced MR imaging was superior to mammography to demonstrate lesions in these dense breasts.It could clearly indicate the extension of posterior breast carcinoma into the pectoralis major muscle and the metastases of parasternal lymphatic node,while it was difficult to evaluate with mammography.The "rim enhancement sign" might be valuable to diagnose breast carcinoma.Conclusion The sensitivity and accuracy of MR imaging is superior to that of mammography.Contrast-enhanced imaging of the breast is helpful not only in early diagnosis of breast carcinoma but also in staging breast carcinoma and planning therapy.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and toxicity in the use of simultaneous integrated boost intensity modulated radiation therapy (SIB-IMRT) for inoperable locally advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC).Methods Between February 2012 and July 2015,58 pathologically diagnosed inoperable LA-NSCLC patients treated with SIB-IMRT were analyzed.A radiation dose of 50-64 Gy was administered in 1.8-2.2 Gy/fraction (26-30 fractions) to the planning target volume (PTV).Simultaneously,60-70 Gy was administered in 2.0-2.35 Gy/fraction (26-30 fractions) to the planning gross tumor volume (PGTV).Results The median follow-up time was 28.0 months (ranging from 6.0 to 40.0 months).The median overall survival (OS) and progress-free survival (PFS) were 25.0 (95％ CI:23.8-26.2) and 15.0 (95％ CI:11.3-18.7) months,respectively.The 1-,2-year OS were 91.4％ and 51.7％,respectively.The 1-,2-year PFS were 56.9％ and 22.7％,respectively.None of the patients developed grade 4 or 5 pneumonitis and esophagitis.In addition,in the subgroup analysis,the patients with N3 have a higher incident of ≥ grade 2 esophagitis compared with N0-N2,the incident are 29.2％ and 20.6％,respectively (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions SIB-IMRT is feasible and well-tolerated for inoperable LA-NSCLC patients.It remains to be further evaluated in a large sample size prospective clinical trial.

Nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) is an Epstein–Barr virus-associated malignant tumor. Radiation alone or concurrent chemo-radiotherapy is the principal treatment method and can generally achieve excellent efficacy for NPC patients. However, the prognosis of locoregionally advanced disease or distant metastasis remains poor. Currently, immunotherapy has become a new treatment of sol-id tumors, and it is mainly activating the antitumor immune system of the body. The review aims to explore the progress of immuno-therapy, including adoptive immunotherapy, tumor vaccines, and immune checkpoint inhibitors in NPC treatment.
