Objective To investigate the coverage of a recombinant protein vaccine based on pneumococcal surface protein A (PspA) from both family 1 and family 2.Methods One hundred and fifty-nine Streptococcus pneumoniae strains, including 47 invasive strains, were isolated from children in Nanjing Children′s Hospital.Cell lysates were prepared and reacted with three antibodies recognizing PspA -RX1, PspA-3296 and PspA-5668 for PspA typing by ELISA .Results Among 47 invasive isolates of 9 different serotypes, 10.7%were PspA family 1 and 89.3%were PspA family 2.Among all of 159 clinical isolates, 10.1% were identified as PspA family 1, 88.0%were family 2, while 1.9%of strains could not be typed by ELISA and PCR assays .None of strains belonged to PspA family 3.Conclusion The recombinant pro-tein vaccine based on PspA from both family 1 and family 2 has a broad coverage among clinical isolates and is potentially protective against both invasive and non-invasive pneumococcal diseases .

AIM　To determine whether O-β -D-fructofuranosyl-〔(2→1 )-O-β-D-fructofuransyl〕4α-D-glucopyranoside (inulin-type hexasaccharide, IHS), a monomer extracted from the roots of Morinda of ficinalis How, has antidepressant action. METHODS Fo rced swimming tests in mice and rats and differential-reinforcement-of-low-r ate 72 second schedule (DRL 72 s) in rats were used. RESULTS In the forced swimming test in mice, IHS (80 mg*kg-1, po), like the effe ct of clinically effective antidepressant desipramine (10 mg*kg-1, ip)， produced significant decrease in immobility time. IHS (20 mg*kg-1，po ) also elicited significant decrease in immobility time in forced swimming test in rats, which was comparable to the effect of desipramine (40 mg*kg-1, po). Moreover, in the DRL 72 s in rats, IHS (5～10 mg*kg-1, ip), s imilar to desipramine (5 mg*kg-1, ip), elicited significant increase in reinforcers. CONCLUSION These findings demonstrate that IHS has antidepressant action and is an effective component extracted from the root s of Morinda officinalis How.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) hernia repair and risk factors affecting postoperative complications.Methods The retrospective casecontrol study was conducted.The clinical data of 595 patients who received laparoscopic TAPP hernia repair in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from February 2008 to August 2016 was collected.Operations were performed by the same doctors' team.Observation indicators:(1) surgical situations;(2) postoperative situations;(3) follow-up situations;(4) risk factors affecting complications after laparoscopic TAPP hernia repair.Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect the recovery time of non-restricted activity,postoperative complications and hernia recurrence up to February 2017.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as (x)±s.The univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were done using the chi-square test and Logistic regression model.Results (1) Surgical situations:595 patients underwent laparoscopic TAPP hernia repair using the heavy meshes.Overall operation time and overall volume of blood loss were (55±25) minutes and (7±5)mL,including operation time of (50±20)minutes in 502 unilateral hernias and operation time of (81 ± 29)minutes in 93 bilateral hernias.Of 595 patients,34 had incarcerated hernia,the contents of hernia:greater omentum,small intestine and sigmoid colon were detected in 21,11 and 2 patients,respectively,with an incarcerated time of 2-21 hours;4 with incarcerated hernia induced small intestinal necrosis received laparoscopy-assisted small intestinal resection ± anastomosis,1 with sigmoid colon necrosis received necrotic sigmoid canal resection ± sigmoidostomy and 29 received repair after the contents restoration of hernia.Operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss in 34 patients with incarcerated hernia were (84 ± 39)minutes and (12±6) mL.Thirteen of 595 patients (10 with indirect hernia and 3 with direct hernia) had recurrent hernia,and operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss were (75±-26)minutes and (10± 5)mL.(2) Postoperative situations:time to initial exsufflation of 595 patients was (19± 12)hours.Of 595 patients,590 took fluid diet at 6 hours postoperatively and 5 undergoing enterectomy took fluid diet at 24 hours postoperatively.The pain score at 1 day postoperatively and duration of hospital stay were respectively 2.5± 1.4 and (2.1± 1.9)days.(3) Follow-up situations:of 595 patients,593 recovered non-restricted activity at 2 weeks postoperatively and 2 didn't recover non-restricted activity at 2 weeks postoperatively.Of 595 patients,542 were followed up for 6-60 months,with a median time of 31 months.Fifty-seven,25,13 and 1 patients were respectively complicated with seroma,surgical pain,urinary retention and enteroparalysis,they were improved by symptomatic treatment,and the same patient can have multiple complications.There were no severe complications which needed surgical intervention,such as vascular injury,damnify of intestinal canal and poke hole hernia.Of 2 patients with recurrence of hernia,1 with right indirect hernia had recurrence of direct hernia and then received Lichtenstein tension-free hernia repair,and 1 received treatment in other hospital.(4) Risk factors affecting complications after laparoscopic TAPP hernia repair:results of univariate analysis showed that age,diameter of hernia sac,incarcerated hernia,recurrent hernia,operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss were related factors affecting complications after laparoscopic TAPP hernia repair (x2 =6.657,55.296,44.305,5.253,117.461,100.722,P＜0.05).Results of multivariate analysis showed that diameter of hernia sac ≥ 4 cm,incarcerated hernia,operation time ≥ 100 minutes and volume of intraoperative blood loss ≥ 10 mL were independent risk factors affecting complications after laparoscopic TAPP hernia repair (OR =3.610,11.315,12.401,7.346,95％ confidence interval:2.009-6.486,3.579-35.772,5.408-28.437,3.739-14.434,P＜ 0.05).Conclusion Laparoscopic TAPP approach for inguinal hernia is safe and effective,and diameter of hernia sac ≥4 cm,incarcerated hernia,operation time ≥ 100 minutes and volume of intraoperative blood loss ≥ 10 mL are independent risk factors affecting complications after laparoscopic TAPP hernia repair.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and outcome of laparoscopic cholecystectomy as a overnight procedure in China.Methods The data of 59 consecutive patients who had undergone outpatient laparoscopic cholecystectomy between Januaiy 2013 and January 2015.All the patients were operated in the morning hours and discharged during 24 hours after operation.They were contacted by telephone 3 days subsequent to surgery and were seen in the outpatient unit 7 days after.Results Fifty-nine laparoscopic cholecystectomies were performed.No Conversion to open surgery case.The average operation time was 25 minutes,and restore semi-liquid diet 6 hours after the operation All the 59 patients were discharged during 24 hours after operations.None of the patients had an emergency readmission.None of the patients had complications 7 days after discharged.The average payment was 8 240 yuan.Conclusion These results suggest that laparoscopic cholecystectomy can be routinely performed as a overnight procedure.

Objective:To investigate the predicting value of European system for cardiac operative risk evaluation ( EuroSCORE ) and sino system for coronary operative risk evaluation ( SinoSCORE ) in early quality of life of patients after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG).Methods:A total of 218 consecu-tive patients who underwent CABG from March 2010 to January 2013 were evaluated with both systems before operation .Health related quality of life ( QoL) was estimated by using 36-item short form health survey ( SF-36) preoperatively and postoperatively in order to evaluate the predicting value of the two sys -tems in early post-operative QoL.Calibration was evaluated by Hosmer-l,emeshow goodness-of-fit test. Discrimination was tested by determining the area under the receiver operating characteristic ( ROC ) curve .Results:There was no significant difference between the accumulation of the EuroSCORE and SinoSCORE in the all patients (t=-0.904, P=0.368), When using Wilcoxon test on life quality in the preoperative and postoperative patients respectively ,the data showed that the quality of life improved significantly in various dimensions of the postoperative patients (Z=-2.886, P<0.001).Except for bodily pain (BP) and mental health (MH), statistically significant correlation was found between the preoperative risk evaluation scores and the postoperative QoL scores (r:-0.203 to -0.493, P<0.05). Logistic regression analyses indicated that both the scores emerged as the independent predictor for a relatively worse QoL ( OR>1 , P<0 .05 ) .Furthermore , the EuroSCORE predicted the outcome with a higher OR.For SinoSCORE the Hosmer-Lemeshow test was significant (P=0.628) and the area under ROC curve was 0.754.For the EuroSCORE the Hosmer-Lemeshow test was significant (P=0.538) and the area under ROC curve was 0.854.Conclusion:Both EuroSCORE and SinoSCORE could be viewed as a predictor for several aspects of postoperative QoL , while EuroSCORE might have a greater predicting value.

Objective To evaluate the appropriate timing of coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) with acute myocardial in- farction(AMI) and to discuss the influence of postoperative mortality on 30 days.Methods 233 patients after CABG were divided into 2 groups,AM/group and unstable angina (UA) group.There were 176 males (75.4%) and 57 females (24.5%).The mean age was (65.6?9.2) years(range 34～86 years).The mean grafts were 3.46?0.89.The complex risk elements between the 2 groups were analyzed to evaluate the independent risk element of death.Results Internal mammary arteries were used in 137 patients (58.8%).The postoperative mortality rate was 4.3 % (10/233).The operative mortality rates(OMR) were closely related to the in- creasing time intervals between AMI and CABG,for less than 3 days was 14.6% (6/41 cases),for 4 to 10 days was 2.7 % (1/37) and for 11 to 30 days was 0.The OMR of AMI less than 3 days has significant difference (P=0.033) comparing with that of unstable an- gina pectoris [2.3% (3/130) ].Conclusion Proper timing of CABG should be done in 3 days after AMI.
