As a kind of additive in feed of monogastric animals, the application of natural phytase is limited due to its disadvantages. In this paper, the strategies of phytse reform was introduced. Furthermore, the research and progress on protein engineering of feed phytase was reviewed, including phytase over-expression, phytase thermostability, catalytic efficiency and optimum pH.

Objective To compare the dose distribution of reserved planned tangential beam IMRT(2-field IMRT) with multifields beams IMRT(6-field IMRT) of the bulk-recurrent chest wall in postmastectomy breast cancer patients.Methods For 8 patients with chest wall in postmastectomy breast cancer bulk-recurrence,2-field IMRT and 6-field IMRT plans were generated on PTV in Pinnacle Planning System.The prescribed dose of PTV was 50 Gy in 25 fractions and GTV was 66-70 Gy which irradiated incrementally by subsequent plan in 8-10 fractions.The conformal index (CI) and homogeneity index (HI) of 95％ of prescribed dose over PTV were compared,while the dose distribution on ipsilateral lung and heart were evaluated.Results The CI of PTV by 6-field IMRT (0.66 ± 0.08) was higher than that of the2-field IMRT (0.53±0.10)(t=7.99,P＜0.05).The HI ofPTV by6-field IMRT (1.36±0.08)waslower than that of 2-field IMRT (2.19 ±0.78) (t =9.04,P ＜0.05).There was no statistical difference in V5,V10,V20 and V35 for ipsilateral lung and in D V35 and D for heart between two plans.Conclusions Compared with 2-field IMRT,6-field IMRT might have a better dose distribution on planning target volume(PTV) for chest wall in postmastectomy breast cancer bulk-recurrence patients,butthere is no significant difference in dose-volume of ipsilateral lung and heart between two plans.

ObjectiveTostudy the value of color Doppler sonography in diagnosisof rhabdomyolysis.Methods The color Doppler sonography images of twenty-one patients with diagnosed rhabdomyolysis were retrospective analyzed.The pathological changes of the muscle were observed.Results The appearance of ultrasound was cloundness and rough-cast glass change in the diseased area of rhabdomyolysis.The diseased region can be found by ultrasound,and location and scope can be displayed clearly.There were major differences in the location of rhabdomyolysis because of etiological factor.The muscle volume and tension of rhabdomyolysis were increased for trauma,the individual patients will lead to the osteofascial compartment syndrome.There was no blood flow signal or little blood flow signal in the diseased area of rhabdomyolysis.Conclusions The color Doppler sonography is an efficient method for diagnosis of rhabdomyolysis.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathlogical characteristics, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of ovarian small cell car-cinoma hypercalcemic type ( OSCCHT) associated with acute renal dysfunction. Methods A case of OSCCHT associated with acute renal dysfunction was reported. The clinical and pathologic data, treatment and pathological examinations were analyzed and the related literatures were reviewed. Results A 29-year-olds women was presented to hospital with inappetence and significant weight loss for 2 months. The laboratory examination showed abnormal renal function, and pelvic cavity mass, possibly coming from adnexa of the uterus was seen by radiography. Serum levels showed significantly increased serum calcium with acute renal dysfunction. An emergency opera-tion was performed just after renal function partially recovered by 2 times hemodialysis. During surgery, right ovary tumor with a size of 12 cm × 10 cm × 10 cm was inspected. Microscopically, the tumor cells were arranged in a diffuse solid pattern, mutiple nodules were separated by fibrous tissue. some small folliculars and pseudoglandular cavities with acidophilia secretion within nodules could been ob-served. Tumor cells were medium to large with eosinophilic cytoplasm, round or oval vesicular nucleus, increased karyoplasmic ratio and pathologic mitosis. Immunohistochemistry revealed that the tumor cells expressed EMA, CKpan, C-erbB-2 ( +) , CA125 ( focal+) and Ki-67 proliferation index was about 60%, while ER, PR, Syn, CgA, PTH, Inhibin, CD99, AFP, PLAP, CD30 and CD20 were not expressed. Conclusion Ovarian small cell carcinoma hypercalcemic type with acute renal dysfunction is a very rare with a rapidly progressive and highly malignant tumor. The final diagnosis mainly lies on clinical information ( hypercalcaemia) , morphology and immunohistochemistry, combined with electron microscopy and molecular biological detection when necessary.

Background and purpose:It is difficult to diagnose gastric cancer at an early stage,thus the resectable probability of gastric cancer is low.This study was to explore the efficacy of neoajuvant chemotherapy in terms of resectablity for the patients with advanced gastric cancer.Methods:Eighty-six patients with advanced gastric cancer were randomly divided into routine surgical operation group and neoajuvant chemotherapy+surgical operation group.The patients were examined by CT before surgery.The patients in neoajuvant chemotherapy+surgical operation group received two cycles of neoajuvant chemotherapy,and then were evaluated by CT.Results:In routine surgical operation group,the overall resectability rate was 83.7%(36/43),and the curative resection rate was 46.5%(20/43), 16.3%(7/43)was done by exp.lap.In neoajuvant chemotherapy+surgical operation group,the overall resectability rate was 93.0%(40/43),and the curative resection rate was 69.8%(30/43),only 7.0%(3/43)was exp.lap.No mortality was observed.There were no significant difference between both groups in terms of toxicities.Conclusions:The overall resectability rate and the curative resection rate are increased in patients with advanced gastric cancer aider neoajuvant chemotherapy.

The clinical data of a child with chemical pneumonia caused by kerosene in Hainan Maternal and Children′s Medical Center in June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.The patient was a 2 years and 1 month old boy with a history of kerosene inhalation and fever.The clinical features included low breath sounds in the left lung and dry and wet rales in both lungs.The white blood cells (WBC) level, C-reactive protein (CRP) level, and erythrocyte se-dimentation rate (ESR) were significantly increased.Chest CT showed inhalation pneumonia.Chest ultrasound suggested medium pleural effusion on the left side.The patient was given antibiotics, nebulization and other treatment.On the 12 th day of the course of the disease, his temperature returned to normal, and breath sounds on the left side were stronger than before.The WBC level, CRP level and ESR were improved according to the re-check results, but pulmonary ventilation was still obstructed mildly to moderately.Fourteen days after hospital discharge, the patient coughed less.Reexamination of chest CT prompted the lesions were further absorbed, but the mild to moderate obstructive lesions were still observed.With the reduction of kerosene use in daily life, kerosene-induced chemical pneumonia is rare, but due to its diverse and complex clinical manifestations and slow absorption of pulmonary inflammation, attention should be paid to its progression into chronic cough.

The potential of a Sinorhizobium fredii strain producing a copolymer polyhydroxyalkanoate(PHA)from glucose and sodium decanoate substrates was studied in this paper.Using orthogonal design in a flask-shaker culture system,the culture medium,some culture conditions and vital regulation conditions for polymer synthesis were optimized.These optimized results were applied into further studies in two-stage fed-batch with a 10L fermentor.The whole culture process consisted of two stages,that is,the cell growth and the copolymer production.The first stage was for the cell growing to a desired biomass and the second was for the copolymer synthesis.For producing PHA polymers,the selected 8 mM sodium decanoate was added into the broth by adopting a two-step adding method for avoiding of foaming when the biomass had approached 28.5g/L dry cell.The maximum P(HB-HH)production could be 17.55 g/L with a monomer ratio of 79.4%(W/W)3-HB and 20.6%(W/W)3-HH.The molecule constitute of the copolymer is poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate)[P(HB-HH)] and its molecular weight(MW)is 1.4?105D.The results demonstrated that the employed S.fredii strain could be a potential candidate for industrial production of the copolymer.The fermentation parameters acquired in the experimental system offered some valuable references for studying large-scale production of the copolymer.
