Objective To describe our experience and method of reconstruction after resection of tumors around inner canthus and nasion in the elderly. Methods The line between outer and inner canthus was considered during reconstruction.If the surface of wound after resection was above this line,glabellar flap was used to reconstruct the upper part and the residual defect was repaired with advancement of lower eyelid and rotation of flap.If the surface of wound was below this line,lower eyelid flap was used and the residual defect was reconstructed with glabellar flap. Results All flaps survived without any significant complications.9 cases among 15 patients were followed up from 1 to 24 months.Repaired tissues all matched well with surrounding tissue in color,texture,and outline.Eyelid and medial canthal were not disturbed and there was no tumor recurrence.Scars were smoothy,soft and hidden with satisfactory appearance and vision. Conclusions Single local flap or combined local skin flaps around the nasion and inner canthus is one of reconstruction methods to get satisfactory cosmetic effect or facial morphology.

Objective To investigate the effects of ginsenoside Rg3 (GS-Rg3) on the hypertrophic scars of rabbit ears and provide experimental foundation for study on its inhibition on the hypertrophic scars. Methods Hypertrophic scars were proved on 24 white rabbits,of which the whole level of the skin was excised for 2 cm?2 cm,4-6 points for each ear,controlled by itself. GS-Rg3 0.1 mL(concentration 3 g?L-1) was injected into experimental group and the same volume of saline solution into control group,once every three days regionally. The scar tissues were collected 2,4 and 6 weeks after the injection respectively,the thickness of the scar,structure under the microscope,and the expressions of PCNA,Bcl-2 and Bax were observed. Results In control group,three weeks after the epithelization of the wound,the thickness of the hypertrophic tissue was 3-4 times of ventro ear skin. Under microscope,the dermis was hyperplasia and got thicker,consisted with amount of fibroblast cells,collagen and vessels,the collagen was untidy,nodule or vortex,and the cartilage could be observed in some region.In experimental group, six weeks after the injection,the skin got thinner,the collagen became neath and the quantity of the vessels decreased. In the hypertrophic scars,there was high expression of PCNA,the percent of positive cells was higher (39.55%?6.07%) compared normal tissue (11.18%?1.71%).In GS-Rg3 group,the expression of Bcl-2 was gradually decreased two weeks after injection and obviously decreased six weeks later,there was significant difference compared with before injection (P

Objective To concentrate on the morbidity of cerebral microbleed (CMB) in patients with hypertension and to analyze the predilection and risk-factor of cerebral microbleed.Method Hypertensive patients were divided into the simple hypertention group, hypertention group with lacunar infarction and hypertention group with cerebral infarction.All of these 65 patients received examination of susceptibility-weighted imaging.Results Ninety-one focuses of cerebral microbleeds were found in these patients:58.2% of these focuses were in both basal ganglia and cerebral ganglion;35.2 percent were in cortex and subcortex;6.6 percent were in brainstem and cerebellum.The total morbidity of CMB was 33.8 percent, 52.4 percent in the group with lacunar infarction and 38.1 percent in the group with cerebral infarction, both were significantly higher than that of 8.7 percent in the simple hypertensive group (χ2= 8.08,P<0.01 andχ2=3.86, P<0.05).Conclusions The focus of CMB suggested the hemorrhagic tendency in endocranial capillary.CMB can be used as a routine exam for the hemorrhagic tendency in endocranial capillary.Synthetic analysis of risk-factor and the result of SWI help clinicians choose suitable treatment for each patient.

Hilar cholangiocarcinoma is a dread disease for humankind due to its high level of malignant,quick metastatic,and high mortality rate.Some patients get treated at the stage of obstructive jaundice,when the intestines are mostly or even completely obstructed,whom can not be radically treated since it can only lead to many complications and a low level of life quality.Despite the various ways of curing this disease,we will talk about the latest progress of surgical excision,palliative treatment,as well as liver transplantation in the eyes of surgical skills.This essay aims to summarize the latest treatment for hilar cholangiocarcinoma in the area of surgery,updating our knowledges,as a way of upgrading our skills and transforming our minds,so as to raise the life quality of our patients by avoiding complications.At the same time,it can provide some ideas for further research in this area.Besides,the paper sheds light on the current treatment of the disease by pointing out some questions on clinical works,which also focuses on lowering the death rate and raising the life quality of our patients.

Objective To conduct an epidemiological investigation on a case of familial arsenic poisoning in Yunnan Province,to find arsenic poisoning source and create a archive of typical cases,in order to raise awareness of endemic arsenicosis and provide scientific materials for prevention and treatment of the disease.Methods In Xiaxiaoying Village of Yunnan Province,all members of a family with arsenic poisoning patients were investigated in 2013,their health examination and epidemiological survey of arsenic poisoning were carried out,and arsenic poisoning family profiles and personal files were established.Drinking water,hair and urine samples were collected for arsenic content determination,blood samples were collected for biochemical detection,excessively keratose skin was collected for pathological biopsy.Results A total of 33 family members were investigated.Among them 15 were exposed to arsenic and 18 were not exposed to arsenic.Fifteen people exposed to arsenic were found to be have skin lesions,and two eldest males died of skin cancer and cerebral hemorrhage in 1994 and 2009,respectively.The survey found out that 15 patients born in 1935-1983 had been drinking arsenic pesticides polluted well water for 5 to 16 years from 1973 to 1989.As of 2013,the arsenic exposure had been stopped for 24 years,the content of arsenic in the polluted wells was 0.624 mg/L,which was 62.4 times the recommended maximum limit (0.01 mg/L) of the World Health Organization.The median of hair and urinary arsenic in arsenic exposed population and non-arsenic exposed population was 4.2,3.7 mg/kg and 60.9,41.0 μg/L,respectively.There was no statistically significant difference in hair arsenic (Z =-1.905,P ＞ 0.05),but the difference of urinary arsenic was statistically significant (Z =-3.002,P ＜ 0.05).The median of aspartate aminotransferase (AST),gammaglutamyltransferase (γ-GT) and 24 hours urinary ereatinine (Cr) in arsenic exposed population and non-arsenic exposed population was 37.5,31.0 U/L,25.5,12.0 U/L,13 834.0,and 6 843.0 μmol/L,respectively.The differences between the two groups were statistically significant (Z =-2.776,-2.311,-2.502,P ＜ 0.05).Twelve cases of arsenic poisoned patients who were conducted health examination and epidemiological investigation showed typical triad of skin,among them 2 cases were moderate and 10 cases were severe.Pathological biopsy results showed 8 cases had basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma.Conclusions Drinking arsenical pesticide contaminated water can induce chronic arsenic poisoning,even after the cessation of arsenic exposure.We should pay close attention to its long-term serious harmful effect.

CD70/CD27 pathway plays an important role in human immune regulation.The role of CD70/CD27 pathway in immune regulation is mainly to promote the activation and proliferation of T cells,induce the differentiation and formation of effector T cells and memory T cells,and interfere with regulatory T cells.In addition,the high level of CD70 expression in some tumor cells provides a new way for tumor immunotherapy.

Objective To analyze the iodine nutritional status in the key populations before and after the adjustment of iodized salt in Yunnan Province,and to provide scientific basis for adjusting the strategy of prevention and treatment timely.Methods The probability proportional to size sampling method was employed in the investigation.In the pre-adjustment period (2011) and the post-adjustment period (2014),the changes in the residents' iodized salt,the urinary iodine and goiter prevalence of children aged 8-10,the urinary iodine of pregnant women and lactating women were analyzed.Results Before and after adjusting the salt iodine concentration,the coverage rate of iodized salt was 99.1％ (1 196/1 207) and 99.2％ (1 532/1 545),respectively,the mean of salt iodine after the adjustment (23.6 mg/kg) was significantly lower than that of before (30.1 mg/kg,F =17.287,P ＜ 0.01).There was significant difference in the iodine nutritional status of children from 271.4 to 180.9 μg/L (Z=-12.883,P ＜ 0.01).The difference of iodine nutritional status in pregnant women between pre-adjustment (217.3 μg/L) and postadjustment (143.7 μg/L) was also significant (Z =9.997,P ＜ 0.01).The thyroid goiter rate of children had inceased from 1.7％ (21/1 207) to 2.1％ (33/1 549),the difference was not statistically significant between the groups (x2=0.539,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions After adjusting the salt iodine concentration in Yunnan Province,iodine nutrition of children has decreased from more than adequate level to adequate level,thyroid goiter rate of children has remained at the low level,and iodine nutrition of pregnant women is sightly lower than adequate level,but iodine deficiency of pregnant women is at a low risk because of the good iodized salt coverage.The new standard of iodized salt is appropriate,and it is more favorable to health in Yunnan Province.

Objective:To investigate whether the specific traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)constitution of in-dividuals can be defined by certain biological indexes instead of answering the questionnaire,and to explore the possibility of discriminating nine TCM constitutions from each other simultaneously using biological indexes.Methods:Blood and urine samples from 152 individuals with nine TCM constitutions were collected,and the related biological indexes were analyzed combining ANOVA,multiple comparison,discriminant analysis,and support vector machine.Results:We found that 4 out of 24 blood routine indexes,7 out of 10 urine routine indexes,and 12 out of 32 biochemical indexes showed differences among the constitutions.High-sensitivity C-reactive protein,apolipoprotein A1,and alkaline phosphatase were potential candidates for screening out individuals with unbalanced constitutions.Combining uric acid,high-density lipoprotein,apolipoprotein A1,creatine kinase,total protein,aspartate aminotransferase,total bile acid,dehydrogenase,sodium,and calcium levels had the potential to directly distinguish the nine TCM constitutions from each other.Among these indexes,the highest ratio of discriminant analysis between two constitutions was 95.5％,while the lowest was 66.1％.Conclusion:Our results suggest that some biochemical and urine indexes are related to various TCM constitutions,and thus they have the potential to be used for TCM constitution classification.

Objective To understand the situation of iodine deficiency disorders and iodine nutrition of children in Yunnan Province after the implementation of new standard of salt iodine,and provide the basic data for prevention and control of iodine deficiency disorders.Methods Using multistage sampling method,Yunnan provincial evaluations for iodine deficiency disorders elimination were carried out.According to the comparative analysis of 2010 (pre-adjustment) and 2015 (post-adjustment) evaluation results,the changes of the median of salt iodine,the coverage rate of iodized salt,the qualified rate of iodized salt,the rate of qualified iodized salt consumption,goiter rate of school children aged 8-10 and the median of urinary iodine were evaluated.Salt iodine was tested using the "Salt Industry General Test Method for Determination of Iodine" (GB/T 13025.7-1999);thyroid volume examination of children using B-scan ultrasonography,thyroid volume calculation and enlargement judgment using "Diagnostic Criteria for Endemic Goiter" (WS 276-2007);and urinary iodine detection using "Urinary Iodine Arsenic Cerium Catalytic Spectrophotometry" (WS/T 107-2006).Results The medians of salt iodine in 2010 and 2015 were 30.6 and 22.4 mg/kg,respectively,the difference was statistically significant (U =317 503.50,P ＜ 0.01).The coverage rates of iodized salt in 2010 and 2015 were 99.6％ (1 681/1 688) and 98.9％ (2 592/2 622),the qualified rates of iodized salt were 98.6％ (1 657/1 681) and 89.7％ (2 325/2 592),and the rates of qualified iodized salt consumption were 98.2％ (1 657/1 688) and 88.7％ (2 325/2 622),and the differences were statistically significant (x2 =6.42,125.11,130.18,P ＜ 0.01);the rates of children goiter in 2010 and 2015 were 0.8％ (25/3 272) and 1.4％(44/3 245),respectively;the medians of urinary iodine of children were 289.0 and 157.3 μg/L,respectively,the difference was statistically significant (U =1 121 669.50,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion After decreasing of salt iodine level starting from 2012 in Yunnan Province,the children iodine nutrition condition is in a more proper level.

Objective:To investigate whether the squirrels in Yunnan Province carried Yersinia pestis phages and their epidemiological significance. Methods:From 2015 to 2018, plague host animals were investigated in five of Yunnan plague foci and non-plague foci. The spleen, liver and intestinal specimens of the squirrels captured in the investigation were taken and stored at low temperature for later use. Intestinal specimens with PBS solution, were filtered by 0.22 μm and added to LB liquid medium containing 100 μl suspension of plague vaccine strain (EV76) and then oscillated in a constant temperature gas bath at 28 ℃ and 220 r/min for 18 to 24 h. The double-layer plate method was used to isolate and observe the growth of plaque. The morphology and structure of Yersinia pestis phages were observed under electron microscope. Meanwhile, spleen, liver and intestinal specimens were taken for detection of Yersinia pestis specific marker gene caf1. Results:A total of 10 squirrels were captured (8 Callosciurus erythraeus and 2 Dremomys pernyi), and four Yersinia pestis phages were isolated (2 in Callosciurus erythraeus and 2 in Dremomys pernyi). Two were isolated from non-plague foci (Yongshan County), two from house rats plague foci (Mile County and Xinping County), and none was isolated from wild radents plague foci (Jianchuan County and Eryuan County). By naked eye observation, two bacteriophages from the plague foci produced transparent plaques and grew well, while two bacteriophages from non-plague foci produced translucent plaques and with poor growth. By electron microscopy, these Yersinia pestis phages were of typical Myoviridae family, their head diameter was about 40 nm, muscle tail was about 120 nm, and tail filament cluster was slightly visible at the end of muscle tail. And all the 10 samples of squirrels were negative of plague-specific caf1 gene. Conclusions:The proportion of plague phages carried by Yunnan squirrels is relatively high. Although the detection of caf1 is negative. Squirrels may be a carrier of plague transmission due to the existence of Yersinia pestis phages.
