Then the operative time, blood loss, postoperative hospital stay before and after surgery and body stress-related serum markers of two groups were analyzed and compared.Results The observation group had the operative time, blood loss and postoperative hospital stay significantly better than those of the control group, and the body stress-related serum markers 5 days after operation significantly lower than that of the control group, with P<0.05.Conclusion The short-term clinical effect of ultrasonic-harmonic scalpel in open thyroid surgery is significantly better than that of traditional surgery, which has high safety and lower degree of adverse physical stress.

Objective To describe the interpositional omentum and demonstrate its clinical significance.MethodsCT and clinical data of the cases whose suprahepatic gaps widen were reviewed and the contrast of CT was adjusted to observe further.ResultsIn 1 916 cases with upper abdominal CT data,suprahepatic gap was widen in all 152 cases,and 119 cases showed fat density(6.21％ ).There were 3 cases of trauma and 3 cases of acute abdomen in the 119 cases CT in the 119 cases displayed free gas under diaphragma,but displayed fat density after contrast adjusted.There were 11 cases undergoing operations,1 for sigmoid rupture 4 liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension,3 gastric cancer,and 1 acute cholecystitis,1 bile duct carcinoma and Ⅰ case congenital cystic dilatation of common bile duct.The other 108 cases did not undergo surgical operation.ConclusionsInterpositional omentum is a clinical phenomenon that the omentum was shift in suprahepatic gap covering the liver surface.It is not rarely,the incidence rate being 6.21％ ( 119/1 916) in our study.The occurrence mechanism may be similar to that of Chilaiditi syndrome.It is difficult to differentiate interpositional omentum from free gas under diaphragms on CT plain scan picture,but it is easy after contrast adjusted of CT.Free gas under diaphragma should not be identify incorrecdied and patients should not undergo unnecessary surgical procedure.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies demonstrated that construction of eoexpression plasmid containing multiple genes on the same vector could improve transfection and expression rates.OBJECTIVE: To construct eukaryotic expression plasmid pcDNA3.1 (+)-MUC1 -GM-CSF by human polymorphic epithclial mucin (MUC 1) and granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor.(GM-CSF) and to observe expression of recombinant plasmid in COS-7 cells.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING: Gene recombination design,which was carried out in the Animal Central Laboratory,the Fourth Military University of Chinese PLA from September 2005 to December 2006.MATERIALS: Eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1 (+) was presented by Pro.Taylor-Papadimitriou;pGEM-3zf()-GM-CSF plasmid,COS-7 cells,pUCI 8 vector,and E.coli DH5α were made in the center; female BALB/c mice were provided by Experimental Animal Center of the Fourth Military University of Chinese PLA.METHODS: Signal peptide was synthesized with encoded MUCI gene sections to obtain repeated sequence coneatemer after renaturation.Next,the accepted concatemer was cloned with GM-CSF following enzyme identification and sequencing analysis,and then they were put in eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1(+) to construct eukaryotic coexpression plasmid pcDNA3.1 (+)-MUCI -GM-CSF in order to transform COS-7 cells.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Gene expression was detected by indirect immunofluorescence and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).RESULTS: Enzyme identification and sequencing analysis showed that recombinant plasmid contained a fusion gene encompassing human MUC1 repeated sequence concatemer and GM-CSF; moreover,MUC1 expression was detected in COS-7 cells,while recombinant plasmid could induce the production of anti-GM-CSF antibody.CONCLUSION: The recombination between human MUC1 repeated sequence concatemer and GM-CSF gene successfully constructs eukaryotic coexpression plasmid.

Objective To construct a recombinant bacillus Calmette-Guérin(BCG) vaccines based on different tandem repeats of MUC1 and GM-CSF, rBCG-MVNTR1/4/8-CSF, and to observe the ability of three recombinant BCG vaccines in the inhibition of breast cancer. Methods After MUC1 variable-number tandem repeats (MVNTR1/4/8) were cloned in a stepwise manner, the E. coli-Mycobacteria shuttle expression vector pDE22-MVNTR1/4/8-CSF were constructed by fusing MVNTR1/4/8 and GM-CSF, and then used to transform competent BCG by electroporation after identification by restriction endonuclease digestion analysis and DNA sequencing. A novel breast cancer vaccines, rBCG-MVNTR1/4/8-CSF was constructed. The expression of fused MVNTR1/4/8-CSF protiens was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. The ability of rBCG vaccines inhibiting the growth of breast cancer was observed in hu-PBL-SCID mice. The specific T cell responses in mice were assessed by immunohistochemistry. Results The expression of recombinant MVNTR1/4/8-CSF fusion proteins were detected by SDS-PAGE and Western Blot in rBCG-MVNTR1/4/8-CSF vaccines, respectively. Tumor incidence in mice prophylactic immunized with rBCG-MVNTR4-CSF (37.5%) or rBCG-MVNTR8-CSF (25%) significantly decreased compared with PBS and BCG-pDE22 control ( 100% ) at 42 days after tumor implantation ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). MCF-7 tumor growth inhibition in rBCG- MVNTR4/8-CSF-immunized mice was more significant than that in controls ( P ＜0. 01 ).The inhibition effect of three rBCG vaccines on breast rumor growth appeared to rise with increase of numbers of the tandem repeats of MUC1. Survival rate was 75% of mice in the rBCG-MVNTR4-CSF-treated group and 87. 5% of mice in the rBCG-MVNTR8-CSF-treated groups at 70 days after tumor implantation; however,survival rate was only 12. 5% in control group( P ＜0. 05). The CD4-positive and CD8-positive lymphocytes were detected only in rBCG-MVNTR4/8-CSF-immunized mice. Conclusions rBCG-MVNTR4/8-CSF immunization inhibits breast cancer growth in mice.

Objective To evaluate the imaging features of benign fibrous histiocytoma (BFH).Methods Imaging data were retrospectively collected and reviewed in 11 patients with pathologically proved BFH.Of the 11 patients,X-ray was performed in all patients,MR scans in 6 patients,and CT scans in 4 patients.Results ALL lesions detected were a solitary lesion.The distribution of BFH was in the tibia (n =5 ),femur ( n =3),fibula ( n =1 ),sacrum ( n =1 ),and thoracic vertebrae ( n =1 ).X-ray features included eccentric osteolytic lesions in 7 patients and centric in 2 patients,with clear boundary and thinning of the cortex,and 7 patients with varying degrees of ossified border were found. CT scan shows bone destruction with density similar to soft tissue.The majority of lesions ( n =3 ) were observed in the expanding shell of bone,2 patients in the tibia and 1 patient in the thoracic lesions with cortical bone perforation.The thoracic lesion as soft tissue mass was detected. All of the lesions detected in CT showed no periosteal reaction.In patients with MR images,hypo to isointense signal intensity on T1WI and hyperintense signal intensity on T2WI was found. All lesions on post-contrast T1WI were detected with homogeneous or heterogeneous lesion with moderate or significant enhancement.Conclusion Imaging features were typical for MFH which is useful tool helping correct diagnosis of MFH.

[Abst ract] Objective To explore the relationship between expression of S100B in hippocampus of depression model rats induced by chronic stress and its depression like behavior,and the antidepressant effect of fluoxetine.Methods 40 rats were put into control group,fluoxetine group,CUS group and CUS plus fluoxetine group,using random number table.Rats in each groups received corresponding treatment.Chronic unpredictable stresses (CUS) were performed on rats for 42 days.Fluoxetine (5 mg/(kg · d)) were delivered to rats by intragastric administration from day 22 to day 42.Then,S100B protein were marked and observed by immunohistochemical method.Open-field test,sucrose consumption and body weight were used to evaluate behavioral changes.Results Scores in behavioral test were reduced significantly by 42 days of stress (main effects of stress,P＜0.05).Effects of stress on behavioral scores were reversed by 21 days fluoxetine treatment (interactions,P＜0.05).CUS resulted in elevated expression of S100B in CA1,CA3 and DG sub-regions in experimental rats (OD values,CUS,0.331 ±0.01,0.353 ± 0.01,0.381 ± 0.007 ; control,0.238 ± 0.007,0.237 ± 0.010,0.228 ± 0.006.Simple effects of stress,P=0.000; P=0.000; P=0.000).Fluoxetine treatment reversed the elevated expression of S100B in CA1,CA3 and DG sub-regions in model rats (OD values:CUS plus fluoxetine,0.233 ± 0.015,0.240 ± 0.005,0.254± 0.015; fluoxetine,0.241±0.007,0.233±0.013,0.227±0.017; Interactions between fluoxetine and CUS,P=0.000; P=0.000; P=0.000).Conclusion Sub-regional over expression of S 100B in hippocampus is associated with depression like behavior of rats.Reversed S100B expression in these sub-regions is an indicator of effective antidepressant treatment but not a mechanism for it.

Objective: To analyze the prevalence and predictor for left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR) in patients of primary hypertension combining left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) with tailored medication.
Methods: A total of 118 consecutive patients admitted in our unit from 2010-08 to 2012-10 with the base line left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)≤40%were enrolled. The demographic and clinical information with the findings of echocardiography at admission were collected. The patients were followed-up until 2013-12 or until the all cause death/cardiac transplantation. According to echocardiography, LVRR was deifned by 2 criteria at the same time:①the absolute elevation of
LVEF≥10%than base line and the follow-up LVEF≥50%,②the relative reduction of left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) index≥10%than base line and the follow-up LVEDD index≤27 mm/m2. LVRR prevalence with its base line predictor was investigated.
Results: The overall mean follow-up time was (23 ± 15) months, and 39/118 (33.1%) patients acquired LVRR as LVEF from the base line level (30.6 ± 6.8)%increased to the follow-up level (57.0 ± 4.9)%;LVEDD index from the base line level (31.6 ± 3.9) mm/m2 decreased to the follow-up level (24.4 ± 1.9) mm/m2, all P<0.01. The average time length for reaching LVRR was (11 ± 9) months, and 27/39 (69.2%) patients reached LVRR within 12 months. There were 79 patients not reached to LVRR, while their LVEF also from the base line level (28.6 ± 6.1)%increased to the follow-up level (39.0 ± 13.2)%;LVEDD index from the base line level (38.1 ± 5.6) mm/m2 decreased to the follow-up level (36.1 ± 6.9) mm/m2. Multivariable logistic regression analysis indicated that the patients with the shorter duration of heart failure (HF) as>6 months vs≤6 months (OR=0.244, P<0.01), shorter QRS interval as≥120ms vs<120ms (OR=0.276, P<0.05) and the higher quartile of systolic blood pressure (SBP)/LVEDD index (OR=2.724, P<0.01) at admission were the independent predictors for LVRR.
Conclusion:With tailored medication, about 1/3 of patients with hypertension combining LVSD could acquire LVRR, the patients with shorter duration of HF, shorter QRS interval and higher ratio of SBP/LVEDD index had more possibilities.
