Objective The patient started from St. Louis (U. S.), and reached Chengdu (China) after 3 days of flight(St. Louis- Tokyo- Beijing - Chengdu). The patient felt unwell, so he and the two relatives took a taxi to the Emergency Center of Sichuan Provincial People' s Hospital for treatment. The epidemiological survey showed that, the patient had been living in the University of Missouri in the United States, no pigs died locally, there were no markets for the living pigs, farmers markets, farms, and slaughterhouses, and he hadn't contact with pigs. But 4 days before the onset, he closely contacted with a schoolmate, who had cold symptoms. The pa-tient had never been to virus laboratory 7 days before the onset. Clinical examinations showed that, the patient had a fever (37.8 ~ 38.8℃), WBC 7.9×10-9 L-1, N 5.475 × 10-9 L-1, L 19.5% ;the chest X-ray shewed that texture increased and the heart shadow augmented on both lungs; the result of throat swab culture was negative. The result of virus nucleic aeid detected by Sichnan Provincial Center for Disease Control showed H1N1 influenza virus, suspected. Sichuan Province Health organization organized experts on the prevention and control of H1N1 influenza for consultation, and the patient was diagnosed as the first suspected H1N1 influenza case in mainland China based on the epidemiological investigation, symptoms and signs of the patient, the results of laboratory ex-amination, and the result of virus test. Confirmed by the experts from Chinese center for disease control and pre-vention and The Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China, the patient was diagnosed as the first H1N1 influenza case in mainland China.

Objective To explore the diagnosis and surgical treatment of primary intestinal tumors, and improve the level of treatment. Methods Retrospective analysis of the clinical was made on the 68 cases of primary small intestinal tumors confirmed by pathological examination in our department in recent 20 years. HZ Results 34.8%(21/68) was benign tumors in 68 cases, and 69.1%(47/68) was malignancies. The common clinical prevsentations were abdominal pain (69.1%,47/68). gastrointestinal he morrhage (41.1%,28/68) and abdomen mass (13.2%,9/68). The preoperative misdiagnosis rate was 70.5%(48/68) .All the 68 cases performed operation, and no death. The 1 ,2 and 5 years survival rates of malignant tumors were 65.8%,42.1% and 29.3% respectively. Conclusions The clinical presertation of primary small intestinal tumor is non-spectific and the misdiagnosis rate is high. Kinds of diagnosis examinations should be done for the cases whose diagnosis are uncertain, and laboratory examinations should be considered if it is need. The main choice of treatment is surgery and the chemotherapy is necessary for malignant tumors also.

Objective To explore the effect of prevention of hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) with hyperhydration, forced diuresis and alkalinizing plus infusion mesna. Methods 32 cases of patients receiving HSCT were included in this study. 2 cases of severe aplastic anemia (SAA) received total body irradiation (TBI)+cyclophosphamide(CTX)(TBI-CTX) regimen,and the remaining 30 patients were using the classic busulfan+CTX (BU+CTX) regimen. All patients were treated with mesna combined with hydration, forced diuresis and alkalization to prevent HC. Ganciclovir and acyclovir were used to prevent cytomegalovirus (CMV) and other viral infections and monitor CMV-IgM levels of the blood. Encourage patients to urinate every hour, testing urine pH value and the calculation of urine output, every 6 h review and testing of urine routine,central venous pressure (CVP), each of 8 h of serum electrolytes. Results Only 1 patient at 6 months after transplantation appeared delayed grade Ⅱ HC after hydration, alkalization, diuretic, hemostatic, anti-graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and ganciclovir antiviral therapy. The HC patients cured at 35 d. The remaining patients did not suffer HC. Adverse effects such as acid-base balance disturbance did not appear clear. Conclusion Mesna joint hydration, forced diuresis and alkalization was effective and safe to prevent HC.

AIM: To investigate the influence of exogenous somatostatin (stilamin) on pancreatic blood flow in normal rats or rats with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP).METHODS: Pancreatic blood flow (PBF) was detected with computerized tissue blood flowmeter and rats with ANP were triggered with sodium taurocholate. Metabolites of eicosanoids in plasma were determined with radioimmunoassay. Other laboratory tests including histopathologic observation under optical or electron microscope were used. RESULTS: There was a significant decrease in PBF in normal rats after stilamin administration in comparison with that before use of the drug. There was significant decrease in PBF after onset of ANP, but, compared with that in ANP group, significant increase was shown in SS(stilamin)+ANP group. Plasma thromboxin-B 2(TXB 2) in ANP group at 6 hours after ANP was significantly higher, with increase of 4.5 times, than that in Sham(sham operated) group while TXB 2, detected each time during the course of ANP, significantly decreased in SS+ANP group. 6-Keto-prostagland in F 1? (6-Keto-PGF 1? ) at 6 h after ANP was significantly higher, and the ratio of TXB 2/6-Keto-PGF 1? , significantly lower in SS+ANP group than that in ANP group. Lessened necrosis of acinar cells, along with much fewer microthrombi in microvessels in SS+ANP group, was shown by pathologic scoring or electron microscope than that in ANP group.CONCLUSION: Administration of exogenous somatostatin leads to the decrease in PBF in physiological setting but it attenuates pancreatic ischemia in SS+ANP group, which may be attributed to correction of abnormal metabolism of eicosanoids, improvement of pancreatic microcirculation and cytoprotection of acinar cells as well.
