Objective To explore a simple and effective way of establishing a 30 % small-forsize liver transplantation in rats. Methods SD rats were selected as the donors and recipients. Smallfor-size orthotopic live transplantation was performed using Kamada's two-cuff method. Donor's liver was flushed via abdominal aorta and hepatectomy in situ was done. Animals were divided into 3 groups (40 pairs of rats in each): group Ⅰ , median lobe was used as graft; group Ⅱ, right of median lobe and right lobe were used as graft; group Ⅲ, median and right lobes were used as graft. The body weight of the donor was the same as the recipient in groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ , but 100～ 120 g less than in group Ⅲ. The operating time, 7-day survival and technical complications were compared among these 3 groups. Results The operating time of hepatectomy was shorter in group Ⅲ than in groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ (8. 8±0.7 vs 11.5± 1.1 vs 10.1 ±1.0 min, P＜0.01). The cold ischemia time of graft, the anhepatic time, the operating time of recipient and the transplanting successful rate showed no significant difference among the 3 groups. Compared with groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ , the incidence of bleeding,bile leakage and IVC stricture was significantly decreased in group Ⅲ (P＜0. 05). Other complications after operation showed no significant difference among the 3 groups (P＞0. 05). Group Ⅲ had more 7-days survivors and longer median survival time, but there was no significant difference among the 3groups. Conclusion Small for donor body weight with median and right lobes as graft was a more effective and simple way of establishing a 30 % small-for-size liver transplantation in rats with shorter hepatectomy time and less complications after operation.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis B virus (HBV) co-infected patients in Beijing and investigate the associated factors.Methods:The clinical data of patients with HIV infection who were treated in HIV/AIDS designated hospitals (Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Beijing Ditan Hospital and Beijing Youan Hospital) were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of 11 572 patients were finally included in the study, among whom 532 patients (4.6%) were co-infected with HIV and HBV. Most of the co-infected patients were young male adults (28~48 years old), accounting for 85.9%. The main transmission route was homosexual behavior (74.8%). There were 87.4% co-infected patients treated with two anti-HBV drugs, including lamivudine (3TC) and tenofovir (TDF). From 2013 to 2018, the annual prevalence of HIV and HBV co-infection decreased gradually, with the rate of 6.37%, 4.55%, 3.92%, 4.68%, 4.24% and 2.74%, respectively. In our study, The main influencing factors of HIV and HBV co-infection were age older than 28 years old versus<28 years old ( OR=2.807, 95% CI 1.241-6.345) and marriage status (married versus unmarried, OR=1.259, 95% CI 1.004-1.579). Conclusions:The proportion of HBV infection in HIV-infected patients is 4.60% (532) in our cohort. From 2013 to 2018, the prevalence of HIV and HBV co-infection in Beijing shows a decreasing trend. The risk of co-infection is higher in married young adults (28~48 years old).

Cholangiocarcinoma is a malignant tumor that occurs in the bile duct epithelium,it is the second most common malignant tumor of the liver and bile duct after hepatocellular carcinoma.Imaging examination is an important method to detect bile duct cancer;the purpose of imaging is to determine the location of the tumor,and the extent of invasion and distant metastasis.Different imaging methods have their advantages and disadvantages,so they should be chosen based on the condition of patients,or be optimized as the combined detection.

BACKGROUND:Stem cel transplantation is increasingly hoped to promote osteoblast differentiation and inhibit osteoclast proliferation in the treatment of osteoporosis.
OBJECTIVE: To study the therapeutic effect of exogenous adipose-derived stem cel (ADSC) transplantation on osteoporosis in ovariectomized rats.
METHODS:Thirty Sprague-Dawley female rats were equivalently randomized into sham, model, ADSC transplantation groups. Rats in al groups except the sham group underwent bilateral ovariectomy to make osteoporosis models. Surrounding adipose tissues instead of the ovary were removed in the sham group. After modeling, rats were given 2×106ADSCs at passage 4via the tail vein in the transplantation group and the same volume of normal saline in the model group, once a week. After 6 weeks, levels of serum calcium, phosphorus, and alkaline phosphatase as wel as bone mineral density and histomorphometry indicators were detected in rats.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the sham group, the trabecular bone volume fraction was significantly decreased in the model group (P < 0.01), but remarkably increased after ADSC transplantation (P < 0.05). After modeling, the bone trabecular absorption surface percentage and rate of bone trabecular formation were elevated significantly (P < 0.05 orP < 0.01), while these increases were improved by ADSC transplantation (P < 0.05). Additionaly, the levels of serum calcium and alkaline phosphatase and bone mineral density were significantly decreased after modeling, but were increased after ADSC transplantation. In contrast, the serum level of phosphorus was significantly increased in the model group (P < 0.05) but decreased markedly in the ADSC transplantation group (P < 0.05). To conclude, ADSC transplantation can reduce the loss of bone mass in osteoporosis rats by ovariectomy.

Objective To analyze the significance of time to positivity(TTP)of blood culture in differentiating bloodstream infection(BSI)from contamination during blood withdrawal.Methods Clinical data and TTP of blood culture in patients hospitalized in different departments from November 2013 to November 2014 were compared retrospectively,role of TTP in differential diagnosis of BSI was evaluated.Results Of 2 605 blood culture specimens,137 were positive for blood culture,78 (56.93%)of which were pathogenic bacteria and 59(43.07%) were contaminated bacteria,coagulase negative staphylococcus had the highest contamination rate(75.76%),while Escherichia coli had the lowest contamination rate(12.50%).TTP of pathogenic bacteria was shorter than that of contaminated bacteria ([13.86 ±8.19]h vs [40.72 ±20.96]h,P <0.05 ).Of pathogenic bacteria,Enterococcus had the earliest TTP ([10.20±8.00]h),followed by Escherichia coli ([11 .12 ±3.91 ]h),Staphylococcus aureus ([12.22±5.08]h),Klebsiella pneumoniae ([14.72±10.45]h),the other gram-negative bacteria([16.11 ±12.97] h),and coagulase negative staphylococci([16.42±5.74]h),fungi had the latest TTP ([29.04±3.67]h ).TTP of gram-negative bacteria was ≤16.59 h,sensitivity and specificity of BSI were 84.09% and 100.00% respectively;TTP of gram-positive bacteria was ≤20.96 h,sensitivity and specificity of BSI were 96.77% and 94.44% respec-tively.Conclusion Combination of TTP of blood culture and other clinical indications can provide reference for early differentiating isolated pathogenic bacteria from contaminated bacteria.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the serum enzymes in childhood amputees as a result of earthquake,and to discuss their clinical significance.Methods From 150 children amputees who were victims of Sichuan Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 and Sichuan Lushan earthquake in 2013,45 cases with complete records of serum enzymes examinations were reviewed retrospectively.They were divided into three groups:amputation group (n=6),fasciotomy decompression group (n =5),general trauma without injury to extremity group (n =34).Serum enzyme examination data were compared for statistical analysis to find the difference among groups.Ten children who were not victims of earthquake were selected from department of orthopaedics to serve as controls,and 20 adult amputees as a result of earthquake served as another control group.Results There were significant differences in injury severity scale (ISS) and the contents of all serum enzymes,including aspartate transaminase (AST),alanine aminotransferase (ALT),creatine kinase (CK),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH),and hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (HBDH),between the amputation group and other patients (FISS=15.474,P＜0.001 ; FAST=10.770,P＜0.001 ; FALT=12.799,P＜0.001 ; FcK=12.848,P＜0.001; FUDH=13.126,P＜0.001; FHBDH=13.186,P＜0.001),and the difference in amputation group was even more significant.AST,LDH,HBDH in childhood amputees group were significantly higher than those in adult amputation group.The contents of ALT and CK were slightly increased.Serum enzyme contents were found to be significantly helpful for prediction of disease condition and prognosis.It was also found that CK was extremely helpful in assessing the degree of illness in patients with severe trauma,especially in patients complicated by severe soft tissue injury.In all the groups,of patients,it was found that CK rose from (129 ± 62) U/L in non-earthquake induced trauma group to (44 208 ± 39 788) U/L in earthquake amputation group,and it was thus increased more than 300 times.Its highest value even reached 117 513 U/L,which was more than 840 times of the normal.If a timely amputation or muscle compartment decompression was performed,CK might decline rapidly down to the normal value.Conclusions The comprehensive and continuous assessment of serum enzymes is mandatory during the treatment of children with acute trauma.It is of important clinical significance to correctly judge the condition and to determine optional treatment measures.
