Objective A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was established for the simultaneous determination of xylitol and L-xylulose in fermentation broth.Methods The chromatographic conditions were as follows:C18 column (250 mm ×4.6 mm) with the temperature 35℃, acetonitrile-water (85∶15,v/v)as mobile phase with the flow rate of 0.8 mL/min.Xylitol was detected by refractive index (RI) detector at 33℃and L-xylulose was determined by ultraviolet ( UV) detector at 210 nm at room temperature.Results This method showed good linearity over the range from 0.50~30.00 g/L with a correlation coefficient of 0.9995 for xylitol and 0.30~30.00 g/L with a correlation coefficient of 0.9986 for L-xylulose. Moreover, the limit of quantification (LOQ) for xylitol and L-xylulose were 0.58 and 0.40,respectively.The limit of determination (LOD) for xylitol and L-xylulose were 0.18 and 0.15,respectively.The relative standard deviations (RSDs) of intraday and interday for xylitol were less than 0.64%and 0.80%,respectively.The intraday and interday RSDs for L-xylulose were less than 0.31%and 0.59%.The recoveries of xylitol and L-xylulose in fermentation broth were between 99.00%-101.00%.Conclusion There was no interference from other constitutes in the fermentation broth by this method.The methods were suitable for the simultaneous determination of the substrate xylitol and the product L-xylulose in fermentation process.

Objective To investigate the antimicrobial susceptibility of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) isolated from Zhenjiang area to 13 routinely used antibiotics and identify the structure and dissemination of class Ⅰ integron. Methods K-B test was used to determine the resistant rate of 71 strains of P. aeruginosa. DNA template was extracted by boiling method, PCR method was utilized to detect class Ⅰintegron, and subsequently gene cassettes were analyzed by sequencing. Results The resistant rates to 13 routinely used antibiotics were quite different from 18. 3 to 77.5% among 71 strains of P. aeruginosa. The prevalence of class Ⅰ integron was 38%. These integrons include 5 gene cassettes ( aadB, aac (6) - Ⅱ , PSE-Ⅰ , dfrA17 and aadAS), in which dfrA17 and aadA5 gene cassette were frequently found. Comparing with the negative strains of integron, the positive strains of integron has obviously higher resistance to ten the antibiotics including piporacillin, piperacillin-tazobactam, ceftriaxone, cefepime, ceftazidime, gentamicin,amikacin, tobmmycin, levofloxacin, and ciprofloxacin. Conclusions The resistant rates of P. aeruginosa to 13 drugs were different, and the resistant rates of integron positive strains were obviously higher than integron negative strains, which indicates that integron may play an important role in multidrug reisistance of P. aeruginoosa.

Objective: To evaluate the postoperative clinical effects of balloon sinuplasty on chronic rhinosinusitis. Methods: PubMed, OVID, Embase, Cochrane Library, Proquest, Web of Science, Sinomed, Wan Fang and CNKI database (from established time to March of 2017) were searched for trials about the chronic rhinosinusitis treated by balloon sinuplasty. The relavent literatures were screened, and the prospective control studies were chosen. Lund-Mackay and SNOT-20 scores were used as the outcome idicators, and the methodological quality of the literatures were evaluated strictly. The extracted data were analyzed by Revman 5.3 software. Results: A total of 7 prospective before-after self-controlled studies were included, and the overall quality of which was relatively high. Meta-analysis showed that the Lund-Mackay scores at 6 months post-operation, the SNOT-20 scores at 6 months and more than 1 year post-operation were significant lower than baseline when balloon sinuplasty used in the surgery; the SNOT-20 scores at more than 1 year post-operation was lower than baseline when a standalone ballon sinuplasty was performed. All the results was statistically significant (P<0.05), and all the SMD were more than 0.8. Conclusions The postoperative effect of balloon sinuplasty on chronic rhinosinusitis is obvious, and the subjective symptoms in patients is relieved effectively.

Methods: Eight patients with huge benign lesions in larynx and pharynx undergoing transoral microsurgery at Peking University Third Hospital between February 2016 and February 2017 were enrolled in this study.The diagnosis included cyst at the base of tongue in two patients, cysts in the epiglottis in two patients, hemangioma in two patients, multiple masses of the hypopharynx and amyloidosis in supraglottic area in one patient each.The time and exposure during surgery, occurrence rate of complication and conditions of following-up were recorded. Results: The mean time of surgery was 20 min, the exposure was satisfying.There was no obvious complication after surgery.No residual or recurrent lesion was observed after 1 to 12 months follow-up(mean time 4.5 months). Conclusion The endoscope assisted curved laryngoscopy technique has advantages in shortening the time of surgery, improving exposure and reducing the rate of complication and recurrence.

Tumor recurrence is one of the major life-threatening complications after liver transplantation for liver cancer. In addition to the common mechanisms underlying tumor recurrence, another unavoidable problem is that the immunosuppressive therapeutic regimen after transplantation could promote tumor recurrence and metastasis. Transplant oncology is an emerging field that addresses oncological challenges in transplantation. In this context, a comprehensive therapeutic management approach is required to balance the anti-tumor treatment and immunosuppressive status of recipients. Double-negative T cells (DNTs) are a cluster of heterogeneous cells mainly consisting of two subsets stratified by T cell receptor (TCR) type. Among them, TCRαβ⁺ DNTs are considered to induce immune suppression in immune-mediated diseases, while TCRγδ⁺ DNTs are widely recognized as tumor killers. As a composite cell therapy, healthy donor-derived DNTs can be propagated to therapeutic numbers in vitro and applied for the treatment of several malignancies without impairing normal tissues or being rejected by the host. In this work, we summarized the biological characteristics and functions of DNTs in oncology, immunology, and transplantation. Based on the multiple roles of DNTs, we propose that a new balance could be achieved in liver transplant oncology using them as an off-the-shelf adoptive cell therapy (ACT).
