In this paper, the composition and contents of fatty acids in eight kinds of common shellfish in the Dalian Coast were studied. They were Neverita didyma and Neptunea cumingi of Gastropoda. Scapharca subcrenata, Mytilus edulis, chlamys farreri, Ruditapes philippinarum, Mactra veneriformis, Sinonovacula constrica of Lamellibranchia. Comparison with Stichopus japonicus, Penaeus orientalis, Upogebia and Portunus trituberculatus was also done. The results showed nutritive values of eight kinds of common shellfish.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical characteristics of reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome ( RPLS ),in order to deepen the awareness of the disease.MethodsThe clinical data of 11 patients with RPLS in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.ResultsIn the 11 cases with RPLS,there were two cases of pregnancy induced hypertension,preeclampsia(38 weeks pregnant),four eases of chronic renal insufficiency,four cases of malignant hypertension,and one case of lung cancer after chemotherapy.The main clinical presentations were headache,abnormality of visual perception,mental and behavioral abnormalities,ataxia,epileptic seizure and so on.The neuroimaging performances were extensive white matter abnormalities of the rear of the bilateral cerebral hemispheres,such as the parietal-occipital temporal lobe lesions,also involving the brain stem,cerebellum,thalamus and other parts.ConclusionThe clinical characteristics and neuroimaging performances of RPLS has certain characteristics,the majority of lesions were reversible,if the early diagnosis and treatment,the prognosis is usually good.

Objective To study the changes of gastrin 17 (G17) and pepsinogen (PG) after gastric bypass surgery in gastric antrum resection, and the influences of different surgical methods on postoperative peptic ulcer. Methods Clinical data of 63 patients with gastric bypass surgery in our hospital from October 2013 to October 2015 were divided into resection of pyloric antrum group (n=33) and preserved pyloric antrum group (n=30). The values of G17, PGⅠ, PGⅡand PGⅠ/PGⅡwere detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay at 1 month, 6 months and 12 months after operation. The correlation between the different surgical methods and the incidence of peptic ulcer was analyzed between two groups. Results The G17 levels were significantly decreased in resection of pyloric antrum group 6 and 12 months after operation than those in preserved pyloric antrum group (P<0.05). Compared with preserved pyloric antrum group,PGⅠ and PGⅡ levels was significantly decreased 12 months after operation (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the ratio PGⅠ/PGⅡat 1 month, 6 months and 12 months after operation between two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative peptic ulcer between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Gastric bypass after resection of the pyloric antrum can reduce the postoperative secretion of G17, PGⅠ and PGⅡ, but which can not reduce the incidence of postoperative anastomotic ulcer.

Objective To investigate the relation between microembolic signals (MES) and vertebral basilar artery ste?nosis in patients with brainstem infarction. Methods A total of 156 patients with acute brainstem infarction, who were de?termined the cerebral infarction lesion and vertebral basilar artery stenosis by cranial magnetic resonance imaging and CT an?giography, and were monitored by transcranial Doppler via occipital window of basilar arterial MES monitoring in 7 days of the onset, were divided into microembolus signal negative group (n=136) and positive group (n=20). The clinical data were compared between two groups. The differences of different degrees of stenosis were analyzed in two groups. The differences of different locations of stenosis in patients with vertebral basilar artery stenosis were analyzed in two groups. Logistic regres?sion analysis was used to analyse the factors affecting MES. Results There were no significant differences in age, gender, history of hypertension and diabetes mellitus between the two groups (P<0.05). There were significant differences in the dif?ferent degrees of stenosis between two groups, no or mild stenosis was found in MES-negative group and severe stenosis in MES-positive group (P<0.05). There were 70 cases with no vertebral basilar artery stenosis, 86 cases with mild, moderate and severe stenosis, in which 14 cases were MES-positive and 72 cases were negative. There were significant differences in different locations of stenosis between the two groups. The proportion of multiple infarctions was significantly higher in MES-positive group than that of MES-negative group (P<0.05). The intracranial vertebral basilar artery stenosis and 75%of ver?tebral basilar artery stenosis were the independent risk factors of MES-positive. Conclusion Severe stenosis of the verte?bral basilar artery is more vulnerable to occur MES of posterior circulation, leading to cerebral infarction. Microemboli may be the cause of multiple infarctions in patients with vertebral basilar artery stenosis.

Objective To investigate the membrane topology of transient receptor potential(TRP)channel. Methods Glycosylation method was used to investigate the membrane integrations of each hydrophobic segment of canonical TRP(TRPC5). Results In TRPC5 channel,S4?S8 segments were integrated into membrane with Ncyt/Cexo and Nexo/Ccyt orientations sequentially ,and C?terminus was intracellular. S1?S3 segments were integrated into membrane with two possible types. One was that S1 and S3 were integrated into membrane,whereas S2 was left out of the membrane on the cytosolic side;and the other was a mixed type that S1 and S3 were exposed to cytoplasm respectively. Both of them,the N?termi?nus was intracellular. Conclusion S4?S8 segments of TRPC5 are transmembrane segments. The integrations of S1?S3 segments into membrane need to be further investigated.

Objective To evaluate the accuracy of ultrasonographic measurement of the transverse diameter of the cricoid cartilage in selecting the cuffed endotracheal tube (ETT) size for pediatric patients.Methods A total of 120 pediatric patients of both sexes,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,aged 1 month-6 yr,with body mass index of 10.9-31.2 kg/m2,undergoing endotracheal intubation and general anesthesia,were divided into group A and group B,with 60 pediatric patients in each group.The pediatric patients were intubated with a cuffed ETT in two groups.The ETT size was selected based on the transverse diameter of the cricoid cartilage measured by ultrasonography in group A.The ETT size was selected according to the age-based formula in group B.A tracheal leak was detected after intubation to determine whether or not the ETT size selected was appropriate.ETTs were replaced when the actually selected ones were not appropriate,and the number of replacement was recorded.The development of intubation-related complications was also recorded.Results The accurate rate of cuffed ETT size selected at the first time was 95％ in group A,and it was significantly higher than that in group B (60％) (P＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of intubation-related complications between the two groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion Uhrasonographic measurement of the transverse diameter of the cricoid cartilage produces higher accuracy in selecting the cuffed ETT size for pediatric patients and is worthy of clinical application.

Avulsion injury of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon from distal phalanx is considered as a rare injury. Accrording to the classification by Leddy and Pacter, this case is Type III, which is a large bony fragment retained by the tendon. The distal pulley prevents retraction beyond the middle phalanx. We are reporting a case with brief review of literatures.

A 26-year-old man with a one-year history of asthma and sinusitis presented with bilateral pleural effusions, patch basilar infiltrates on a chest x-ray and a pericardial effusion on an echocardiogram. The peripheral blood showed marked eosinophilia. An obstructive pattern was also observed during the pulmonary fuction test, which was responsive to bronchodilator inhalation. Nerve conduction studies showed right sural neuropathy. Thoracentesis yielded an acidotic exudative effusion with low glucose, low C3 and eosinophilia. An open lung biopsy revealed an eosinophilic interstitial pneumonitis associated with a necrotizing eosinophilic vasculitis, and granulomatous inflammation foci. In the literature, pleural effusions were reported in 29 percent of Churg-Strauss patients, but the number of effusions was low and their characteristics have not been well described. This report describes the characteristic findings of pleural fluid and its histologic features in a case of classical Churg-Strauss syndrome.
