This paper dealt with the influences of different media, temperature, light and pH to the amount of oospore formation. The results showed that millet agar, bai yun beau agar and soybean agar provided the favorable condition for oospore formation, the number of oospores was 131.6~149.6 /cm2, but a few oospores was formation on frozen pea agar. The results also suggested that the optimal conditions for oospore formation were 18℃, pH7 and darkness. The oospores failed to be formed tinder fluorescent or black light.

Objective To study the inlfuence of the allicin on abnormal crypt focus(ACF). in Wister rat model. Methods 60 Wister rats were subcutaneous injected by dimethylhydrazine (DMH), according to 20 mg/kg weight, once a week, feeding 18 weeks continuously. All of the rats were randomly divided into allicin group and non-allicin group, each group was divided into three groups evenly, and put to death at 8, 16 and 24 weeks after medication separately. Large intestines were observed after dyeing. Results Large intestines were divided into ten equally, and all pieces were observed. ACF were almostly distributed in the middle and distal of the large intestines, about in 50%-80%.The basic situation of non-allicin group was as follows:ACF at 8 weeks was 63.97±1.22 on average per each, 16 weeks was 83.97±1.13, 24 weeks was 69.33±2.01. The basic situation of allicin group:ACF at 8 weeks was 9.4±1.12 on average per each , 16 weeks was 7.17±1.33, 24 weeks was 4.97±1.23.The occurrence of ACF in non-allicin group was higher than allicin group, the differences of incidence rate and number of ACF between two groups was significant (χ2=15.88,P<0.01).Conclusion Allicin can significantly reduce the number of ACF in Wister rats, lower the incidence of colorectal cancer, has prevention effect.

Objective To analyze the etiology of pseudoachalasia.Methods Patients who were diagnosed as having pseudoachalasia in Endoscopy Center of The Affiliated Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University from September 2010 to June 2015 were retrospectively analysed.Results A total of 12 patients were enrolled in this study,6 males and 6 females.The median age,median disease duration and median Eckcardt score was 54.5(24.0～71.0) years old,2.5(0.2～ 10.0) years and 4(3～9),respectively.Seven cases were caused by malignant tumors,2 had benign tumors,and 3 peptic stricture.Conclusion The most common cause of pseudoachalasia is malignant tumors.Accurate diagnosis relies on the comprehensive medical history and complete examinations.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for elderly patients with periampullary diverticula accompanied with choledocholithiasis.Methods The retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted.The clinical data of 297 elderly patients with age ＞70 years and periampullary diverticula accompanied with choledocholithiasis who were admitted to the Zhongshan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University between January 2013 and January 2016 were collected.All the patients received lithotomy by ERCP after completion of preoperative preparation,and then underwent symptomatic treatment.Observation indicators included:(1) treatment results:cannulation time,success rate of cannulation and success rate of stones removed;(2) surgical complications:hemorrhage,perforation and pancreatitis;(3) follow-up results.All patients were followed up by outpatient examination and telephone interview up to December 2016.Follow-up included postoperative delayed perforation,patients' survival,further attack of acute cholangitis and reoperation for removing stones.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as x ± s,and measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range).Results (1) Treatment results:all the 297 patients underwent successful lithotomy by ERCP,with a cannulation time of (5±4)minutes and a success rate of cannulation of 100.00％ (297/297).Of 297 patients,292 had one-off success of stones removed,with a one-off success rate of 98.32％ (292/297),and 5 received partial stones removed due to choledocholithiasis combined with acute cholangitis.(2) Surgical complications:4 patients were complicated with immediate hemorrhage during intraoperative endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST).Bleeding of 1 patient was cauterized by biopsy forceps,and 3 patients had simplex JHY-BAL compression hemostasis.Two patients with postoperative delayed hemorrhage had successful hemostasis by biopsy forceps with metal hemostatic clip under endoscope after emergency duodenoscopy.One patient with intraoperative perforation was cured by conservative treatment.Two patients with severe acute pancreatitis underwent continuous gastrointestinal decompression combined with maintenance therapy of somatostatin,and then received endoscopic ultrasound-guided puncture and drainage for pseudocyst around the pancreas,with a stable symptoms of pancreatitis after 4 weeks.(3) Follow-up results:all the 297 patients were followed up for 6-12 months,with a median time of 8 months.During follow-up,292 patients had healthy survival,without recurrences of cholangitis and bile duct stone,and no delayed perforation and death were detected.Five patients underwent the second time lithotomy by ERCP after 2-3 months postoperatively.Conclusion Lithotomy by ERCP is safe and effective in the treatment of elderly patients with periampullary diverticula accompanied with choledocholithiasis.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between desmosome-related proteins and epidermal tumors. Methods Using anti-desmoglein 1 and 2 monoclonal antibodies, expression of desmoglein 1 and 2 was examined by an immunohistochem ical staining method in various epidermal tumors such as squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), actinic keratosis(AK), keratoacanthoma(KA) and seborrhoeic keratosis(SK). Results Desmoglein 1 and 2 were strongly expressed in intercellular space of wh ole epidermis in normal human skin. Expression of desmoglein 1 and 2 was markedl y reduced or absent in SCC cells. Compared with normal epidermal cells, expressi on of desmoglein 1 and 2 was equal to or reduced,with complete absence of stain ing in dysplastic areas in AK cells. Extensive pericellur staining of desmoglein 1 and 2 was found in KA and SK cells, similar to that observed in normal epider mis. Conclusion Expression of desmoglein 1 and 2 is markedly reduced or absent i n human malignant epidermal cancers, reduction of these molecules may contribute to invasiveness and metastasis of epidermal carcinomas.

Objectives To identify the COL7A1 gene mutation in a recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) family, and to perform prenatal diagnosis in the patient's offspring. Methods The genomic DNA, obtained from the patient and his wife, was used to screen all 118 exons of the type VII collagen gene (COL7A1) via polymerase chain reaction (PCR) followed by direct DNA sequencing of the PCR products. Fetal DNA was extracted from amniotic fluid of the patient's wife at the 15th week of gestation. PCR, direct DNA sequencing and restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) were performed for prenatal diagnosis. Results The patient in this study was a compound heterozygote for a S48P missense mutation in exon 2 and an 11 base pair deletion (3625del11) leading to a premature termination codon (PTC) in exon 27, which are a novel combination of COL7A1 mutations in RDEB. The COL7A1 genotype of his wife was normal. In the fetus, the same deletion of 11 base pair (3625del11) was found in exon 27, but no mutation was found in exon 2. Thus, the fetus was predicted to be a clinically normal child with a carrier genotype. Seven months later, a clinically unaffected male infant was born and the prediction was confirmed. Conclusion We successfully performed the first DNA-based prenatal diagnosis in China in a family with Hallopeau-Siemens RDEB.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of a new endoscopic suturing device(OverStitchTM, Apollo Endosurgery, USA)for gastrointestinal wall defect after endoscopic full?thickness resection (EFTR). Methods Clinical data of the patients with submucosal tumors who underwent endoscopic suturing closure of gastrointestinal wall defect at the Endoscopy Center of Zhongshan Hospital from April 2015 to June 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Five patients were included in this research with 4 lesions located in stom?ach and 1 lesion located in descendent duodenum. The mean diameter of lesions was 3?? 2 cm (ranging 2?? 0?5?? 0 cm). All patients underwent complete closure and none of them was converted to laparoscopic surgery or laparotomy. The mean repairing time was 16?? 6 min (ranging 11?? 0?22?? 0 min). The mean postoperative hospi?talization time was 5 days ( ranging 4?6 d). Two patients complained about slight abdominal pain and elevated body temperature. CT showed minor pleural effusion in one case. These patients received antibiotics, were on gastrointestinal decompression and asked to maintain the semi?supine position and discharged after 3 to 4 days. Conclusion Endoscopic suturing closure of gastrointestinal wall defect with the OverStitchTM en?doscopic suturing device is technically fast, feasible and safe.
