We reported a clinical caseof gas gangrene in the lower back and buttocks due to local intramuscular injection. A 43-year-old male was treated by local private clinic for low back pain. He underwent local intramuscular injection in his lower back and buttocks. 5 or 6 hours after the treatment,he felt worsen of low back pain (VAS 5 points)with a fever. After one day of treatment, the lower back pain was even worse(VAS 8 points). And he had soy-sauce urine and a high fever. The results of laboratory examination and clinical manifestation suggested multiple organ failure within a short period of time. Imaging (CT) suggested large area of gas and muscle necrosis in the lower back and buttocks. Considering the progress of the disease, emergency surgery on lumbar back and right buttocks was performed after hospitalization. Rapid bacterial smear reported gram-positive coarse bacteria. Anaerobic culture suggested clostridium perfringens. Aerobic culture result did not show any bacterial growth. According to the clinical manifestation, imaging (CT), intraoperative judgment and postoperative anaerobic culture results, the clinical diagnosis was gas gangrene. Gas gangrene is a special infectious disease in clinic, which can be characterized by low morbidity, difficult early diagnosis,rapid disease progression and high mortality. Sinceintramuscular injection leaded to this disease in our case, the importance of standardized aseptic procedures should be emphasized.

Objective:To analyze the relationships between baseline percentage of pulmonary perfusion defect scores (PPDs%) and residual pulmonary hypertension after pulmonary endarterectomy in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) patients.Methods:A total of 37 CTEPH patients (21 males, 16 females, age (50±12) years) who had pre- and post-pulmonary endarterectomy ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) scans from January 2016 to January 2019 at Fuwai Hospital were retrospectively collected. Residual pulmonary hypertension was defined as post-surgery mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) higher than 30 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa). Semi-quantitative index PPDs% was calculated to represent the extent of impaired perfusion in the whole lung. Pre- and post-surgery pulmonary hemodynamic parameters including pulmonary arterial pressure and resistance and lung perfusion were compared. Factors that may be related residual pulmonary hypertension were analyzed using logistic regression analysis. Paired t test and independent-sample t test were also used. Results:Pulmonary endarterectomy significantly decreased mPAP ((50.22±11.72) vs (26.41±10.61) mmHg; t=12.599, P<0.001) and pulmonary vascular resistance((10.06±5.48) vs (2.89±1.58) Wood unit; t=8.086, P<0.001). The number of defected lung segments (13.79±2.11 vs 5.52±2.82; t=11.593, P<0.001) was significantly reduced. Patients who had residual pulmonary hypertension ( n=11) exhibited significantly higher PPDs% before the surgery compared to those who were without residual pulmonary hypertension ( n=26; (57.48±5.88)% vs (47.77±11.09)%; t=-3.458, P=0.002). Baseline PPDs% was an independent factor for predicting residual pulmonary hypertension after pulmonary endarterectomy (odds ratio ( OR)=1.106, 95% CI: 1.006-1.216, P=0.036). Conclusions:Pulmonary V/Q scan can assess the therapeutic effects of pulmonary endarterectomy. Extent of impaired lung perfusion assessed by V/Q scan is the influencing factor for post-surgery residual pulmonary hypertension.

Sequences analysis revealed Grass carp reovirus (GCRV) s10 was 909 nucleotides coding a 34 kDa protein denoted as VP7, which was determined to be a viral outer capsid protein (OCP). To obtain expressed OCP in vitro, a full length VP7 gene was produced by RT-PCR amplification, and the amplified fragment was cloned into T7 promoted prokaryotic expression vector pRSET. The recombinant plasmid,which was named as pR/GCRV-VP7,was then transformed into E.coli BL21 host cells. The data indicated that the expressed recombinant was in frame with the N-terminal fusion peptide. The over-expressed fusion protein was produced by inducing with IPTG, and its molecular weight was about 37kDa, which was consistent with its predicted size. In addition, the fusion protein was produced in the form of the inclusion body with their yield remaining steady at more than 60% of total bacterial protein. Moreover,the expressed protein was able to bind immunologically to anti-his-tag monoclonal antibody (mouse) and anti-GCRV serum (rabbit). This work provides a research basis for further structure and function studies of GCRV during entry into cells.

Siderophores were produced and secreted with marine microorganisms as the highly specific iron chelators. A method of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric detection coupled with solid phase extraction pretreatment was developed for the determination of siderophores in seawater. The samples were filtered through a 0. 22 μm membrane, extracted with an ENVI-18 cartridge and then eluted with methanol. The separation of the analytes was performed on a reversed phase SB-C18 column with a gradient elution program by using 0. 1% ( V/V) formic acid and methanol as the mobile phases. Qualitative analysis was performed in multiple-reaction monitoring mode. Good linearity (R2>0. 99) was obtained for Pyoverdines-Fe, Ferrichrome, Ferrioxamine E at the concentrations of 0. 001-3. 00 μg/mL, 0. 005-15. 00 μg/mL, 0. 001-3. 00 μg/mL, respectively. The instrumental detection limits and limits of quantification for the three analytes were 0. 08, 1. 76 and 1. 36 ng/mL; 0. 27, 5. 87 and 4. 53 ng/mL, respectively. The relative standard deviations were lower than 12%, while the recoveries were 12. 1%-18. 6% for Pyoverdines-Fe, 82. 0%-97. 7% for Ferrichrome, and 70. 0%-98. 3% for Ferrioxamine E.

Grass carp reovirus (GCRV), a double stranded RNA virus that infects aquatic animals, often with disastrous effects, belongs to the genus Aquareovirus and family Reoviridea. Similar to other reoviruses, genome replication of GCRV in infected cells occurs in cytoplasmic inclusion bodies, also called viral factories. Sequences analysis revealed the nonstructural protein NS80, encoded by GCRV segment 4, has a high similarity with uNS in MRV(Mammalian orthoreoviruses), which may be associated with viral factory formation. To understand the function of the uNS80 protein in virus replication, the initial expression and identification of the immunogenicity of the GCRV NS80 protein inclusion forming-related region (335.742) was investigated in this study. It is shown that the over-expressed fusion protein was produced by inducing with IPTG at 28oC. In addition, serum specific rabbit antibody was obtained by using super purified recombinant NS80(335.742) protein as antigen. Moreover, the expressed protein was able to bind to anti-his-tag monoclonal antibody (mouse) and NS80(335-742) specific rabbit antibody. Further western blot analysis indicates that the antiserum could detect NS80 or NS80C protein expression in GCRV infected cells. This data provides a foundation for further investigation of the role of NS80 in viral inclusion formation and virion assembly.
