OBJECTIVE:
To obtain the genetic polymorphism data of Guangxi, Hunan, Henan, Sichuan, Taiwang Chinese Han population and compare the polymorphism of PentaD and PentaE STR locus.
METHODS:
The two loci was analyzed by using the PowerPlex 16 System.
RESULTS:
10 alleles of PentaD and 19 alleles of PentaE were found in the five Han population. PentaD and PentaE have the expected heterozygosity values of 0.7746-0.8047 and 0.9005-0.9219, the polymorphism information content values of 0.7710-0.8025 and 0.8969-0.9176, the discrimination power values of 0.9223-0.9341 and 0.9471-0.9782, the power of exclusion values of 0.5435-0.6325 and 0.6785-0.8465, respectively.
CONCLUSION
The result showed that these two loci were highly informative and suitable for forensic application.

Short tandem repeats (STRs) have been widely used in forensic sciences such as stain analysis and paternity testing. Although most of STR typing could give the reliable and clear results, some unusual typing have been observed in forensic practice. The anomalous typing could result from a lot of causes, including DNA genetic variation, poor quality or quantity of DNA template, different typing system or method, nonspecific reaction in PCR or anomalous electrophoresis migration. The unusual results may disturb the right interpretation of STR typing.

OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the diversity of combined paternity index (CPI) of multiple STR loci when different population allele frequencies was used to calculate the paternity index.
METHODS:
CPI of 13 CODIS (combined DNA index system) loci for 108 trio cases and 108 duo cases selected randomly were calculated by using five Chinese Han population allele frequencies, respectively.
RESULTS:
The CPI range for trio cases and duo cases were 2077.63-50897711626.46 and 25.12-2998685141, respectively. When different population allele frequencies were applied to the same case, the ratio of maximum CPI and minimum CPI, which was more than 100, for trio cases and duo cases were 20 cases (19.52%) and 13 cases (12.04%), respectively.
CONCLUSION
The variation of CPI value of the CODIS loci was obvious with different allele frequencies. To prevent the error causing by uncertain allele frequencies, a conservative CPI value should be calculated in paternity testing.

Objective To study the sources and the relationship between the management and the outcome of hemorrhage after cephalic pancreatoduodenectomy.Methods The clinical data of 370 patients who underwent pancreatic resection at the Lihuili Hospital and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University were retrospectively analyzed.Results Postoperative bleeding occurred in 35 patients with 11 deaths.Among those intraabominal bleeding occurred in 14 cases and gastrointestinal hemorrhage occurred in 22,with one case suffering from both.Bleediug developing within 72 hours after operation in 12 cases (early-stage group),which was caused by improper intraoperative homeostasis.In other 23 cases,bleeding 72 hours after operation(later stage group)was caused by the erosion following pancreatic and/or bile leakage.Relaparotomy was performed in 13 cases and endoscopic homeostasis was performed in 3. Relaparotomy or endoscopic homeostasis was superior to that of conservative therapy in the early-stage group (P0.05).Pancreatic or bile leakage was identified as the significant risk factors for the postoperative bleeding.Conclusions In order to prevent the postoperative hemorrhage and to reduce the mortality of pancreatic resection,skillful techniques,expeditious homeostasis,proper management of stump pancreas and the prevention of pancreatic and bile leakage are essential.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of Tpo and/or IL-11 gene modified stromal cells on the expansion of CD(34)(+) hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells in cord blood.
METHODSRetroviral vectors containing Tpo or IL-11 gene were constructed and used to transfect the stromal cell line HFCL. Tpo and/or IL-11 mRNA was assayed by Northern blot. Non-modified stromal cells were used, CD(34)(+) hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells from cord blood were expanded on gene-modified stromal cells for 7 days. The phenotype of CD(34)(+)CD(38)(-) primitive progenitors was detected by flow cytometry.
RESULTSHFCL expressed Tpo and/or IL-11 mRNA after transfected by the retroviral vectors. The percentages of CD(34)(+)CD(38)(-) primitive progenitors in the cultures of Tpo, IL-11 and Tpo + IL-11 modified HFCL were (1.8 +/- 0.24)%, (1.62 +/- 0.23)%, and (2.45 +/- 0.28)%, respectively, which were higher than that in the control [(0.8 +/- 0.23)%].
CONCLUSIONThe stromal cells modified by Tpo and/or IL-11 gene were able to enhance ex vivo expansion of CD(34)(+) and CD(34)(+)CD(38)(-) hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells from cord blood.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate genetic polymorphism of two X chromosome specific STR: DXS10011 and DXS8377 in male samples from Guangdong Han population.
METHODS:
The DNA samples were amplified by PCR and analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by silver staining.
RESULTS:
Among 113 samples, 20 alleles were found for DXS1011 and 12 alleles for DXS8377. Also, 72 DXS10011-DXS8377 haplotypes were shown. The most common haplotypes only occurred three times. When only female children were tested in motherless case, the exclusion probability of paternity was 0.9588 for DXS10011-DXS8377 haplotypes. Investigations in 83 family trios with female children and 29 pedigrees with two children suggested a co-dominant X-linked inheritance; mutations were not found.
CONCLUSION
Our data indicate that DXS10011 and DXS8377 are highly informative X chromosome markers for complicated kinship analysis.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the correlation of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection and childhood lymphoma.
METHODSParaffin-embedded specimens of lymphoma collected between 1996 and 2005, including 36 Hodgkin lymphomas (HL) and 51 non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL), were included in this study. Paraffin-embedded specimens of reactive hyperplasia of lymph nodes (RL) collected during the same period were used as controls. Immunohistochemical (IHC) assay was used to detect EBV-LMP1 and in situ hybridization (ISH) to detect EBV-EBERs.
RESULTSEBV was detected in 72.2% (26/36) of the Hodgkin lymphomas, 15.7% (8/51) of the non-Hodgkin lymphomas and 33.3% (15/45) of the reactive hyperplasia of lymph nodes. There was a significant difference among Hodgkin lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and RL (P = 0. 000).
CONCLUSIONChildhood Hodgkin lymphoma is closely correlated with Epstein-Barr virus infection. However, the low rate of EBV infection detected in childhood non-Hodgkin lymphoma might be due to heterogeneous distribution of pathological types in this study.
