Metal sulfides are chemically attacked by Fe~ 3+ and H~+, resulting in the formation of elemental sulfur via polysulfides or thiosulfate pathway. Elemental sulfur may aggregate and even form a layer on the metal sulfide surface, which will inhibit leaching metals from the sulfides minerals. Elimination of inert elemental sulfur in a typical acidic environment can exclusively be by way of oxidation of acidophilic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria, such a way includes the attachment, transport and oxidation process of elemental sulfur by acidophilic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria. On the basis of analysis on the pertinent researches, the molecular mechanism of sulfur elimination by the acidophilic bacteria is far away from elucidated, and to attain that target, there are still much work to be done for elucidating the molecular mechanism on the attachment, transport and oxidation process of elemental sulfur by the acidophilic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria.

Linear solvation energy relationships are of a great value in investigating quantitative structure-retention relationship and quantitative structure-activity relationship, and predicting chromatographic retention indices of drugs. Several quantitative relationships in different in vitro biomembrane-mimetic models between retention factors and molecular descriptors have been established successfully and used to clarify drug-membrane interaction mechanisms. Quantitative structure-activity relationships also have been established to predict drug intestinal absorption, permeation of skin and blood-brain barrier. This review focused on the significance and widely application of linear solvation energy relationships in quantitative assessment for mechanisms of partitioning and absorption of drugs. The discrepancy and limits of linear solvation energy relationships were also discussed, which gives us a better insight into investigation of partitioning and absorption of drugs.

Objective:To search for a method for radical resection of pancreatic and duodenal malignancy involving the mesentery root and for the long post-operation survival of patients.Methods:From Jan.2004 to Aug.2006,a total of 26(16 male and 10 female. aged 27-70)patients with pancreatic and duodenal malignancy involving the mesentery root were treated in our department.The patients included 3 with duodenal malignancy and 23 with pancreatic malignancy.Curative resection was performed by the extended pancreaticoduodenetomy(Whipple procedure)combined with mesentery root resection(MRR)for all patients.The outcomes,safety and the post-operation survival rate were analyzed retrospectively.Results:Thirteen patients were treated with Whipple procedures combined with MRR,9 were treated with partial portal vein/superior mesenteric vein(PV/SMV)and reconstruction of the vessel,and 4 patients received pre-shunt between PV and SMV with artificial vessel graft before the extended Whipple and MRR procedures.The operation time was 2.5 to 7(4.4?1.1)hour,and blood loss was 300 to 5 000(1892?1414)ml with the blood transfusion of 0 to 5 600(2 100?1 586)ml.There was no death in our group and 7(27%)had post-operation complication.The post-operation hospital stay was 10 to 30 days.The pathologic examination showed negative surgical margins for all specimens.The tumor size was 4 to 10 (6.17?2.03)cm.After a follow-up of 9 to 38 months,the pain was relieved in all patients.One of the 3 patients with duodenal adenocarcinoma had liver metastasis at 10 months after operation,and the other 2 survived 10 months and 27 months without evidence of tumor reccurence.The patient with pancreatic micro-adenocarcinoma died of local reccurence 9 months after operation.The patient with neuroendocrine carcinoma died of organ failure 24 months after operation.The patient with lymphoma have survived for 24 months after operation.The 1-year and 2-year accumulated survival rates in the 20 cases with pancreatic ductal cancer were 86.6% and 45.6%. respectively.Conclusion:The extended Whipple procedure with MRR is safe and effective.It can obtain R0 resection in patients with malignant tumors(over 5 cm in diameter)in the head,neck and uncinate process of the pancreas and duodenal.

To determine the distribution and drug resistance tendency of Gram-negative bacillus so as to provide a reasonable selection for antibiotic in clinical treatment.The clinical isolates bacillus were mainly Gram-Negative bacillus during three years.The detection out ratio for Gram-Negative bacillus had decreased gradually but the ratio for non-fermental gram-negative bacillus had increased.The combinations of antibiotic and enzyme inhibitor has more antibacterial activity to non-fermental gram-negative bacillus than antibiotic.The detection out ratio for ESBLs had gradually increased.

Objective To determine the long term outcomes of laryngomalacia infants with anomalies and to determine the clinical practice guideline for these infants.Methods The charts of infants with moderate to severe laryngomalacia,who were admitted to our hospital between January 2013 and December 2015,were retrospectively reviewed.These infants were divided into two groups,anomaly(A) group(n=37) and non-anomaly (NA) group(n=19).Results Fifty-six cases were enrolled.Infants in A group were older at symptom relief than those in NA group[(10.00±3.56) months vs.(7.89±3.03) months,P<0.05],and the weight percentiles of infants in A group were lower at 3,6 and 12 months than those in NA group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups on the weights percentiles in infants at 24 months after diagnosis.Five of 37 cases in A group and 3 of 19 cases in NA group had supraglottoplasty.One infant in A group had tracheotomy.Conclusion Both breathing difficulty and development retardations of infants with moderate or severe laryngomalacia could gradually improved with age.There is not enough evidence to support the aggressive supraglottoplasty for infants with anomalies and laryngomalacia.
