Malachite green (MG) is a dye which has been widely used as a topical fungicide and antiseptic in aquaculture throughout the world. Now,MG has become a highly controversial compound due to its potential highly residual and toxic characteristics in recent years. In the paper,the advances in toxicity,toxicological mechanism,detection methods,metabolism and removal of malachite green and its metabolite were reviewed,and the problems in aquaculture and the safety of aquaculture technology were discussed,in order to make us be aware of potential hazard of malachite green and provide a dependable evidences of safely breeding in aquatic products.

Objective To describe an appreciate operation method in the treatment of deformi-ties secondary to gluteal muscles and fascia contracture. Methods 25 cases of serious secondary de-formity of gluteal muscles and fascia contracture were treated by Z-plasty. The contracted fascia and scar were loosed and the skin around the wound was rearranged. Results The following-up time was from 6 months to 3 years with an average time of 1.6 years. All cases rehabilitated to normal or nearly normal in gait. Aesthetic results were also satisfactory. No recurrence was observed. Conclusion Re-arranging the contracted fascia with Z-plasty can extend the fascia and improve the movement of the hip joint. Besides, Z-plasty treatment of skin around the scar is benefit for the aesthetic result of the deformities, Z-plasty of contracted fascia and skin is an appreciate operation method in the treatment of deformities secondary to gluteal muscles and fascia contracture.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility,the safety and the effect of early postoperative enteral nutrition in patients with esophageal cancer.Methods: On the first postoperative day,40 patients were randomly divided into two groups.One group was given isocaloric total parenteral nutrition through central vein(TPN group) and the other group was fed with enteral nutrition through nasoenteric tubes or jejunostomy tubes which were inserted during the operation(EEN group).All variables were measured before operation and on postoperative day 1 and 8.Blood was drawn at different time points to assess albumin,prealbumin and transferrin.Immune response was determined by immunoglobins,total lymphocytes,T-lymphocyte subsets and NK cells. Inflammatory response were determined by C-reactive protein,IL-6 and TNF-?.Morbidity,mortality and length of hospital stay were also evaluated. Results: Tolerance of enteral nutrition was excellent.Neither mortality nor serious morbidity occurred in all patients during the period of study.After the study,the levels of serum prealbumin,total lymphocytes,CD3,CD4 and CD4/CD8 ratio in the EEN group were significantly higher than the levels in the TPN group.The concentrations of IL-6 and the length of hospital stay in the EEN group were significantly lower than in the TPN group.Conclusion: Early postoperative enteral nutrition in patients with esophageal cancer is safe,and also has the benefit effects of enhancing the body status of nutrition and immune function,and reducing the inflammatory response and the length of hospital stay.

Objective To study the characteristics of Genetic typing and the antibiotic susceptibility testing of strains from Pseudomonas aeruginosa keratitis patients.Design Experimental study,Participants 23 eyes of 23 patients of Pseudomonas aeruginosa keratitis.Methods The genomic was extracted and amplified with PCR.The PCR products were purified and sequenced.The results were registered in MIST web Antibiotic susceptibility testing were performed in theses strains,Main Outcome Measures Sequence types and antibiotic susceptibility.Results The isolates were resolved into 20 STs.Two lineages were identified.MIC test showed that strains were more susceptible to aminoglycosides,The activity of quinolones and cephalosporin were higher than that of aminoglycosides.Conclusion MIST can determine homology of the strains from Pseudomonas aeruginosa keratitis by clustering results. There is no finding about relationship between Genetic typing and drug resistance.

Objective To explore the methodology of suturing the upper margin of the orbicularis muscle in pretarsal orbicularis myocutaneous flap to the levator aponeurosis,simulating the mechanism of fibers from the levator aponeurosis to the dermis in natural double-eyelid in blepharoplasty.Methods Pretarsal orbicularis myocutaneous flap was harvested.Dissection between the orbital septum and the levator aponeurosis was performed originating from the upper margin of the tarsi until to the levator muscle.The upper margin of the orbicularis muscle in pretarsal orbicularis myocutaneous flap was sutured to the levator aponeurosis.The lower skin margin to the orbital septum to the upper skin margin was sutured interruptedly.Patients with medial epicanthus were performed epicanthoplasty at the same time.Results 136 eyes in 68 patients were performed with double-eyelid blepharoplasty using this method.62 patients were followed-up for 1 month and 53 patients were followed-up for 3 months.They all reported satisfactory aesthetic results.Conclusions Double-eyelid blepharoplasty using this method accords with the physiological mechanism in natural double-eyelid.Postoperative double-eyelid is natural with little tumefaction.This method can avoid double-eyelid fold retraction and multi-fold occurrence.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated cation channel 4 (HCN4) and connexin43 (Cx43) in the sinoatrial node of electric shock death. METHODS: As experimental group, 34 cases of electric shock death who had definite current mark evidence were selected from pathology department of Xuzhou Medical College from 2010 to 2013. As the control group, 20 cases of fatal severe craniocerebral injury in traffic accidents were chosen. The expressions of HCN4 and Cx43 in the sinoatrial node were observed by immunohistochemical technology. RESULTS: HCN4 positive cells expressed in the cell membrane and cytoplasm of the sinoatrial node. Cx43 positive cells expressed in the cell membrane and cytoplasm of T cells and myocardial cells. The expression of HCN4 was significantly higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05) and the expression of Cx43 was significantly lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The changes of HCN4 and Cx43 expressions in the sinoatrial node illustrate electric shock death might be related to the abnormalities of cardiac electrophysiology and conduction.

OBJECTIVETo study the relationship of TCM syndrome type of gastric mucosal epithelial growth factor (EGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in patients with chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) for exploring the essence of TCM type and providing a theoretical basis of clinical treatment.

METHODSTCM syndrome type of 200 patients with diagnosis of CAG confirmed by fibro-gastroscope and pathological examination were differentially classified, and the expressions of EGF, VEGF and PCNA in different types were determined using immunohistochemistry.

RESULTSPatients were differentiated as Pi-Wei deficiency type (Type I ) in 72; Gan-Wei disharmony type (Type II ) in 43; Pi-deficiency with qi stagnation type (Type III) in 32; Wei-yin deficiency type (Type IV) in 24; Pi-Wei damp-heat type (Type V) in 14; and Wei-collateral stasis obstruction type (Type VI) in 5. The difference of PCNA expression level between Type II with Type I , III and IV was significant (P < 0.05). No significant difference in expression levels of EGF and VEGF was found among the 6 types (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONType I and II were the dominant TCM syndrome types in CAG patients; the high expression of PCNA might be a diagnostic evidence for Gan-Wei disharmony syndrome.
