Objective To study the clinical characteristics by using CT, MRI and biochemistry test on the X linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X ALD) Methods The clinical,neuro imaging and determinations of plasma very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) of 12 cases with X ALD were analysed Results The main clinical features consisted of the childhood onset,progressive auditory, visual and/or intelligent impairment, behavioural changes,epileptic seizures and melanodermia. CT or MRI scans demonstrated that the demyelinating lesions were located on the bilateral white matter in occipital,posterior parietal and temporal lobes.The levels of hexacosanoic acid (C 26:0 ) and the ratio of C 26:0 to docosanoic acid (C 22:0 ) were increased. Conclusions ALD is an inherited disease as an X linked trait.The childhood X ALD is characteristiced by progressive auditory, visual and intelligent deterioration.The abnormalities of CT or MRI scan and the levels of the plasma VLCFAs are crucial to the diagnosis of X ALD.

Objective To explore the curative effect of endourological treatment of pediatric urethral hemangioma with holmium laser.Methods Two children with urethral hemangioma were enrolled in this study. One urethral hemangioma in the bulbous urethra,another in the posterior urethra. Modalities of diagnosis before operation included B ultrasound,intravenous urogram(IVU) and endoscopy. Two children with urethral hemangioma underwent holmium laser therapy.Results After endourological trearment with holmium laser, two children had been cured.Six months to 4 years follow-up did not find recurrent urethral hemangioma.Conclusions The diagnosis of pediatric urethral hemangioma mainly rely on endoscopy. Endourological treatment with holmium laser is a minimally invasive,safe and effective methods for pediatric urethral hemangiomas.

An oxygen-tolerant denitrifying strain designated as H1 was screened by the procedures of shallow shaking and continuous aeration cultures.With the aid of an nnrS-gfp fusion responsive to nitric oxide (NO)and acetylene inhibition-GC procedure,it was shown that strain H1 was able to produce NO and N_2O but not N_2 under denitrifying conditions.Denitrifying processes were thus determined as NO_3~-→NO_2~-→NO→N_2O,with N_2O as the end product.Strain H1 could denitrify under shallow shaking conditions as well as in the initial atmospheric oxygen concentration ranging from 0~21%.Denitrification processed normally under continuous aeration at the rate of 2 L air per min in a 150 mL medium,but stopped under high aeration rate as 5 L air per min.16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain H1 shared 98% similarity to its closet relative Ralstonia taiwanensis,the genus where denitrifying bacteria are frequently found.

ObjectiveTo explore effect of interleukin-10 (IL-10) on histopathologic scores of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and the level of serum amylase (AMY) in rats.Methods48 female and male adult Sprague Dawley rats (200—300g) were randomly allocated into three groups: OPgroup, SAP group and IL-10 group with 16 rats in each group. SAP was made with retrograde ductal infusion of 5% sodium taurocholate solution.ResultsIn SAP and IL-10 group, there were interstitial edema, necrosis, neutrophil infiltration and interstitial hemorrhage of pancreas, more or less. At 6h and 12h after models were made, the pancreatic histopathologic score in IL-10 group (4.00±0.33 and 6.25±0.25) were significantly lower than that in SAP group (6.13±0.35 and 9.50±0.50)(P<0.01). At 6 h after models were made, the serum AMY in IL-10 group was lower than that in SAP group (P<0.05), but at 12 h there were no differences.ConclusionIn earlier period of SAP in rats, IL-10 can lower the serum AMY level, and significantly reduced pancreatic histologic score (edema, inflammation, hemorrhage, and necrosis).

This paper reported a new type of amylase (neoamylase) secreted by a Bacillus strain ZX99. The enzyme was a kind of ectoenzyme that could catalyze starch into isomalto-oligosaccharide effectively, but could not act on pullulan as substrate. The strain Bacillus ZX99 was mutated by ultraviolet ray and a mutant strain BS3.232 was screened. The activity of the neoamylase produced from BS3.232 increased by 60% over that from ZX99 under the same conditions. The results of thin-layer chromatography of products from starch and pullulan catalyzed by the enzyme demonstrated that the enzyme was different from neopullulanase and can be used to produce isomaltooligosaccharide from starch, including isomaltose, panose, isomaltotriose, isomaltotetose.

Objective To investigate the spiral CT features of gastric carcinoma in the invasion and metastasis and its correlation with the expression of phosphatase and tensin horology deleted on chormosome ten(PTEN)and basic fibroblast grouth factor(bFGF).Methods Spiral CT plain scan and triphasic enhanced scans were performed in 83 patients.The postoperative specimens were embedded with paraffin to obtain 5?m thickness tissues and stained with HE and immunohistochemistry.Spiral CT findings were compared with the expression of phosphatase and tensin horology deleted on chormosome ten(PTEN)and basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF).Results(1)The accuracy of spiral CT in T and N staging of gastric carcinoma was 94.0%(78/83)and 89.2%(74/83),respectively.(2)The expression of PTEN was 47.0%(39/83)in gastric carcinoma.The expression of PTEN in T_(3.4)(40.8%,29/71)and N_(1+2) (38.3%,23/60)gastric carcinoma was significantly lower than that of T_2(10/12)and N_0(16/23)gastric carcinoma,respectively(X~2=7.439,P=0.006;X~2=6.511,P=0.011).(3)The expression of bFGF was 63.9%(53/83)in gastric carcinoma.The expression of bFGF in T(3.4)(70.4%,50/71)and N_(1+2) (71.7%,43/60)gastric carcinoma was significantly higher than that of T_2(3/12)and N_0(10/23)gastric carcinoma,respectively(X~2=7.314,P=0.007;X~2=5.724,P=0.017).(4)Both PTEN-positive expression and bFGF-positive expression were detected in 16 specimens.The expression of PTEN(41.0%, 16/39)was negatively correlated with that of bFGF(30.2%,16/53)(r=-0.447,P=0.000). Conclusion Spiral CT triphasic enhanced scans combined with biologic characteristics can improve diagnostic accuracy of gastric carcinoma in the invasion,metastasis and prognosis.
