The quality control in novelty assessment of medical literature was analyzed in terms of its strict process, improvement of its staff literacy, and perfection of information resources, with certain suggestions put for-ward its quality control .

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of full?thickness peroral endoscopic my?otomy( POEM) for achalasia in a follow?up period of 1 year. Methods Data of 28 patients who underwent full?thickness POEM in our hospital from July 2013 to June 2014 were retrospectively studied. Procedure completion and complications were assessed at the end of follow?up of 12 months. Results All patients were treated successfully by full?thickness POEM with the mean operation time of (61?7±15?6) minutes. Intraop?erative mucosal perforation occurred in 2( 7?1%) patients. Symptoms were relieved in 28 patients, but ster?num pain occurred in 6(21?4%) patients. POEM failed in one case in the first 3 months, and was successful in 27 other cases.treatment success rate (Eckardt≤3) was 89?3%(25/28). The incidences of postoperative reflux and esophagitis were 25?9%( 7/27 ) and 22?2%( 6/27 ) , respectively. Conclusion The full?thickness POEM is safe and effective with less complications, but further study is needed to evaluate long?term efficacy and complications.

Objective To establish a real-time quantitative PCR ( qPCR) method for detection of Streptobacillus moniliformis, which can be used to rapidly detect this pathogen in laboratory animals .Method According to the S. moniliformis sequences published in NCBI , we designed specific primers and MGB probe .The specificity, sensitivity and stability of this method were evaluated using 24 standard reference strains .Total of 823 respiratory specimens of animals including mice, rats, guinea pigs, hamsters, rabbits, Mongolian gerbils and tree shrews , were detected by this established Taqman MGB qPCR method .Results We had successfully established the S.moniliformis Taqman MGB qPCR method . S.moniliformis was not detected in the samples of mice , rats, guinea pigs, hamsters and rabbits.The positive rate of S. moniliformis was 1.5% ( 1/65 ) and 61.7% ( 37/60 ) in conventional Mongolian Gerbils and tree shrews , respectively . Conclusions Our developed qPCR method can be used to effectively detect S.moniliformis in laboratory animals .Moreover , its accuracy and sensitivity are better than the national standard method .This study laid the foundations for optimizing the quality inspection system of laboratory animals .

Objective Excision repair cross-complementing gene-1(ERCC1) are key regulatory enzymes whose expression patterns are associated with overall survival(OS) in several malignancies.Their expression patterns and prognostic value in resected gastric adenocarcinoma(GAC) are not known and need to investigate.Methods A total of 109 patients who underwent resection for GAC in Liu′an People′s Hospital from January 2010 to June 2013 had tissue available for analysis.The primary objective was to assess for the differential expression of ERCC1 using by immunohistochemistry.The secondary objective was to assess for the association between OS and the expression of ERCC1.Results The median follow-up was 21.2 months,and the median OS was 28.8 months.Resected GAC exhibited differential expression of ERCC1(high expression,n=25(23%)).ERCC1 expression was not associated with OS(18.9 months vs.27.7 months,P=0.72).In a subset analysis of patients who received chemotherapy(n=73),high ERCC1 expression was associated with decreased OS(16.7 months vs.53.8 months,P=0.03).After controlling for known adverse pathologic features,high ERCC1 expression persisted as a negative prognostic factor in multivariate Cox regression analysis(HR=2.22,95% CI1.05-4.98,P<0.05).Conversely,in patients who underwent resection only(n=35),high ERCC1 expression demonstrated a trend toward improved OS(40.4 months vs.12.7 months,P=0.10).A positive prognostic influence also was present on multivariate analysis(HR=0.20,95% CI0.05-0.84,P=0.03).Conclusion Resected GAC exhibited differential expression of ERCC1.Among all patients,ERCC1 expression levels were not associated with OS.High ERCC1 tumor expression is associated with decreased OS in the patients who received chemotherapy but is associated with increased OS in those who underwent surgery alone.ERCC1 expression have prognostic value in resected gastric cancer,and further investigation is needed.
