The food poisoning caused by Bacillus cereus occurs in Kunming or Yunnan Province sometimes.The aim of our survey is to prevent and control this kind of food poi- soning in the future.The result shows that the positive rate is 19.20% and the degree of contamination differs in the different kinds of food,the dairy products being contaminated most seriously of all.The bacteria in the contaminated food number mostly 10~2~10~4 per gram,Though it is not very high,the presence of Bacillus cereus is so wide that we showld pay much attention to it. Abut 97.65% of Bacillus cereus can be biologically classified and the most com- mon types are 2,8 and 10.About 92.98% of Bacillus cereus can be classified according to the serological type,and type 3 is the most predominant one and type 1 the second.In the dairy products,biological types 2 and 8 make up 54.55% and serological type 1 36.36%. The bacteria isolated from the food are highly sensitive to erythromycin,chlor- amphenicol,gcntamycin,streptomycin and kanamycin.

Objective To discuss the relationship between and value of Leptin with disorder of lipid metabolism in gestational diabetes mellitus. Method Research objects are divided into three groups including GDM group, normal glucose tolerance group (NGT group), normal non-pregnant group. Blood lipid, fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, serum leptin and placental leptin levels were detected and HOMA-IR was calculated. Result (1) Serum leptin, TC, TG, placental leptin and HOMA-IR in GDM group were higher than those of NGT group and TC, serum leptin and HOMA-IR of NGT group were higher than those of control group. There were statistical significances (P<0.05). (2)Serum leptin levels were positively correlated with BMI, HOMA-IR, TC and TG respectively (r = 0.593, 0.688, 0.722, 0.492 respectively, P < 0.05). Conclusion Leptin may cause lipid metabolism disorders, and together they participate in the pathogenesis of GDM. Maternal serum leptin level is expected to become an observation index of GDM.

Objective To explore the effects of phentolamine on the function of the islets isolated from normal rats.Methods The SD rats islets were isolated by digestive method with collagenase and DNase.Millipore Multiscreen Assay System was used to observe the effects of phentolamine on the function of isolated islets. Insulin and glucagon were measured by RIA. Results ⑴Insulin secretion of the isolated islets incubated in culture medium was glucose concentration-dependent manner. Phentolamine had stimulate insulin secretion significantly. Nifedipine (Ca 2+ channel blocker) and diazoxide (K + channel opener) had inhibit the insulin release, but their effects were abolished by phentolamine. ⑵Glucagon secretion of the isolated islets in culture medium incubated was inhibited by glucose. Phentolamine inhibited glucagon secretion significantly, and the inhibiting effect was also concentration-dependent manner,both the nifedipine and diazoxide had the effect too. Conclusion Phentolamine could stimulate insulin secretion, and inhibit glucagon secretion in the isolated islets.It maybe has some hypoglycemic effects on diabetes.

Objective: To investigate the possible pathogenesis and report the postoperative results of the late tricuspid regurgitation (TR) after left cardiac valve replacement. Methods: 56 patients developed severe TR after left cardiac valve replacement, including 10 patients with normal prosthesis valve function (group A) and 46 patients with prosthesis valve dysfunction (group B). Four patients underwent mitral valve replacement (MVR) and 6 patients underwent mitral and aortic valve replacement (DVR) in group A. In group B, 36 patients received MVR, 4 aortic valve replacement (AVR) and 6 DVR. Ten patients underwent tricuspid De Vega annuloplasty and 46 patients' tricuspid valves were normal during the initial operation. The surgical treatment of tricuspid valve included tricuspid valve replacement (TVR) in 9 and tricuspid valve plasty (TVP) in 47 at the second operation. Results: Two patients died postoperatively with hospital mortality of 3.6%. The 54 survivors were followed up from 6 to 132 months, mean 79.4 months. The heart function improved significantly in 8 after TVR and 40 after TVP. However, echocardiography showed moderate TR in 5 and severe TR in 1 patient after TVP and medical treatment was needed. Conclusion: The sustained pulmonary hypertension, irreversible right heart impairment, resumption of left ventricular function and sustained atrial fibrillation may be responsible for the development of late TR after left cardiac valve replacement. TVR may achieve a reliable result for severe functional TR and rheumatic tricuspid valve lesion. In some patients with TVP during the follow up, the TR might become more serious.
