Objective To investigate causes and treatment approaches for postoperative complications after laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding(LAGB).Methods Clinical and follow-up data of 302 cases were reviewed.The body mass index (BMI),percent excess weight loss (％ EWL),operation time,intraoperative blood loss,the incidence of complications and management were analyzed and summarized.Results There were no conversion to open surgery.The overall complication rate was 6.29％ including 2 cases of gastric wall injury,5 cases of gastric banding slippage (recovered by reoperation).There was no gastric parietal banding corrosion,tube bursting leakage,pulmonary embolism,micronutrient deficiencies,nor mortality.Conclusions The majority of patients were satisfied with the operation effect,still,there were substantial postoperative complications including gastric wall injury,gastric banding slippage.

Objective To clone mcp1, mcp2 and mop3 genes that encoding methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins(MCP) of Campy/obacter jejuni for construction of their prokaryotic expression systems, and to establish chemotactic model in vitro of the microbe for determining chemotaxis-inducing substances and to understand relationship among MCPs and chemotactic inducers. Methods The segments of mep1, mcp2 and mcp3 genes were amplified by PCR and then sequenced after T-A cloning. Prokaryofic expression systems of the genes were subsequently constructed. SDS-PAGE pins Bin-Rod Gel Image Analyzer were used to examine the expression of target recombinant proteins rMCP1, rMCP2 and rMCP3, and Ni-NTA affinity chromatography was performed to purify the rMCPs. Rabbits were immunized with each of the three rMCPs to obtain antisera. Immunodiffusion assay was performed to measure the titers of antisera. IgG in each of the antisera were extracted by ammonium sulfate precipitation and DEAE-32 ion exchange chromatography, and IgG F(ab')2 were then prepared by pepsin enzymolysis and Sephadex G-100 chromatography. Chemotactic model in vitro of C. jejuni based on HAP( hard-agar plus) method was established to determine the chemo-taxis-inducing effect of eight candidate substances. Chemotaxis inhibition test based on IgG F(ab')2 bloc-king was applied to determine the function and diversity of MCPs. Results The segments with expected si-zes amplified from mcp1, racp2 and mcp3 genes were obtained by PCRs, and their nucleotide and putative amino acid sequences were completely same as the reported. The constructed prokaryotic systems could effi-ciently express rMCPs with the yields about 10% of the total bacterial proteins. Immunization with rMCP1, MCP2 and rMCP3 enables the rabbits to produce specific antibody. All the antisera had 1: 4 immunodiffusion titers. Both bovine bile and sodium deoxycholate(DOC) were able to induce ehemotactie movement of C. je-juni in a dosage-dependent manner ( P < 0.05 ). When MCP1 and MCP2 were blocked with their IgG F(ab')2, the ehemotaetic ability of C. jejurd were remarkably decreased (P <0. 05). However, MCP3 blocking did not affect the chemotaxis ( P > 0.05 ). Conclusion The C. jejuni MCPs are successfully ex-pressed in this study. Bovine bile and DOC are the inducers for chemotaxis of C. jejuni, and MCP1 and MCP2 are involved in the process of ehemotaxis iadueed by DOC.

Objective To study the correlation between the level of CaMKIV and essential hypertension (EH) in Shihezi community. Methods One hundred and forty-six patients with EH and 142 with normal blood pressure are enrolled from 15 communities in shihezi. We collected the clinical data, including blood pressure, body mass index, waist circumference, blood lipids. The serum level of CaMKIV was detected using an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Results The serum level of CaMKIV in the EH group was significantly lower than that in the normal blood pressure group (P < 0.05). The serum CaMKIV was negatively correlated with systolic BP and diastolic BP (r = -0.304, -0.452, all P < 0.05), with more obvious correlation with patients whose diastolic blood pressure was over 100 mmHg (r = -0.571, P < 0.05). Conclusions The serum level of CaMKIV is negatively correlated with EH, which is an independent factor of EH.

Objective To investigate the function of phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C encoded by LB361 gene of L.interrogans ( L-PI-PLC) and its mechanism in inducing macrophage apoptosis .Meth-ods The PI-PLC domains in the sequence of LB 361 gene of L.interrogans serovar Lai strain were analyzed by bioinformatics method .Prokaryotic expression system was established to express the recombinant L -PI-PLC ( rL-PI -PLC).The enzymatic activity of rL-PI-PLC in hydrolyzing phosphatidylinositol -4,5-bisphos -phate (PIP2) substrate into inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) was determined by IP3 fluorescence polariza-tion assay.LB361gene expressions at mRNA and protein levels as well as the secretion of LB 361gene prod -ucts were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative RT -PCR and Western blot assay after infection of hu-man THP-1 macrophages with L.interrogans serovar Lai strain.A LB361 gene-transfected THP -1cell line was generated for evaluation of the mechanism of LB 361 gene products in elevating intracellular free Ca 2+( [Ca 2+] i) concentration and inducing the apoptosis of transfected THP -1 cells with the use of laser confocal microscopy and flow cytometry.Re sul ts The rL-PI-PLC hydrolyzed PIP2 into IP3 with a Km of 199 μmol/L and a Kcat of 8.566×10-5 S-1 .The expressions of LB361gene at mRNA and protein levels were both signifi -cantly up-regulated after infection of THP-1 cells with L.interrogans serovar Lai strain .Moreover , the exter-nal secretion of L-PI-PLC was also found during infection .The concentrations of IP 3 and [ Ca2+] i in the LB361 gene-transfected THP-1 cells were significantly increased compared to those in the non-transfected THP-1 cells, resulting in a high [Ca2+]i-dependent apoptosis of partial THP-1 cells.Conclusion PI-PLC is encoded by the LB361 gene of L.interrogans, which could induce the apoptosis of macrophages through el-evating [ Ca2+] i concentration during infection of microphages with L.interrogans.

Objective To explore the prognostic significance of p53 mutation protein in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma for the purpose of individualized therapy. Methods Newly diagnosed 62 cases were randomly chosen from our hospital, p53 mutation protein and CD10, bcl-6, MUM1 were tested by immunohistochemistry. Correlation of p53 mutation protein with patients ' characteristics, genotype and survival were analysed in the study. Results p53 mutation protein was found in 48.4 % (30/62) of patients.Its expression was only related to initial treatment response (x2 =20.365, P =0.040), including complete remission rate of 33.3 % (10/30) in positive group and 59.4 % (19/32) in negative group, and non-germinal center genotype (x2=31.023, P =0.021) with 83.3 % in positive group and 56.2 % in negative group. No other correlation was not verified with clinical features. Multivariate survival analysis showed that p53 mutation protein was an independent predictor for shorter progress-free and overall survival in positive group (x2 =30.784, P =0.005 and x2 =35.276, P =0.006). Conclusion p53 mutation protein should be an independent predictor with poor prognosis and to direct personalized therapy.

Objective To investigate the effects and safety of needle?knife precut papillotomy in diffi?cult common bile duct cannulation of endoscopic retrograde pancreatic duct radiography ( ERCP ) . Methods The data of 104 cases treated with needle?knife precut papillotomy were retrospectively analyzed. The effect of pre incision and short?term complications were observed,and compared with 1326 cases( conventional group) of con?ventional selective intubation in the same period of ERCP. Results Successful cannulation of the bile duct was achieved in 97 of 104 patients who underwent needle?knife precut papillotomy, the total success rate was a?chieved in 93. 3%. The complications of needle?knife precut papillotomy occurred in 8 patients(7. 7%),inclu?ding mild bleeding in 4 cases,mild pancreatitis in 2 cases and billiary infection in 2 cases. There were 1326 ca?ses conventional selective intubation in the same period of ERCP,and 98 cases(7. 4%) with complication.
