Objective To investigate main causes leading to conversions to open surgery during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in the treatment of acute cholecystitis. Methods A total of 32 cases of acute cholecystitis received LC were analyzed. Results Out of the 32 cases of acute cholecystitis, LC was successfully accomplished in 25 cases (78.1%) and a conversion to open surgery was required in 7 cases (21.9%). Major causes of the conversion included the necrosis of the gallbladder(4 cases) and the failure to expose the Calot’s triangle(3 cases). Conclusions Conversions to open surgery should be made during LC when a gangrenous cholecystitis is confirmed or the Calot’s triangle cannot be well exposed.

Abstract: To investigate the distribution of avian influenza virus in environmental samples from live poultry markets (LPM) in China, samples were collected and tested by nucleic acid during 2009-2013 season. Each sample was tested by real-time RT PCR using flu A specific primers. If any real-time PCR was positive, the sample was inoculated into specific-pathogen-free (SPF) embryonated chicken eggs for viral isolation. The results indicated that the positive rate of nucleic acid in enviromental samples exhibited seasonality. The positive rate of nucleic acid was significantly higher in Winter and Spring. The positive rate of nucleic acid in LPM located in the south of China was higher than in northern China. Samples of Sewage for cleaning poultry and chopping board showed that higher positive rate of nucleic acid than other samples. The Subtype identification showed that H5 and H9 were main subtypes in the enviromental samples. Viral isolation indicated H5 subtypes was more than H9 subtypes between 2009 and 2013 while H9 subtypes increased in 2013. Our findings suggested the significance of public health based on LPM surveillance and provided the basis of prevention and early warning for avian flu infection human.

Objective To quantitatively assess the virucidal activities of three commercial disin-fectants against human infected highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses subtype H5. Methods The 50%tissue culture infective dose ( TCID50 ) of avian influenza viruses was calculated. Quantitative suspension test was performed to evaluate the efficacy of three disinfectants. In that test, 105 TCID50 of avian influenza viru-ses were exposed to different disinfectants at different concentrations for different times with or without the in-terference with fetal bovine serum ( FBS) simulating the contaminated condition. The residual infectivity was determined by endpoint titration in Madin-Darby canine kidney ( MDCK) cells. The detail steps were that the mixture of viruses and disinfectants was inoculated at 37℃ with 5% CO2 for 1 hour. Then, it was re-placed by virus dilution medium and further incubated for 18 to 20 hours. ELISA was performed for the cal-culation of TCID50 . The titers of residual viruses were calculated according to Reed and Muench method. The low pathogenic avian influenza virus H9N2 was chosen as the control in this study. Results The re-mained infectivities of three viruses after 1 minute exposure to 1% Virkon solution were below the limit of de-tection (1. 0 lgTCID50/100 μl). Exposing to 0. 5% Virkon solution decreased the viral titers of H5N1 and H9N2 viruses below the detection limit and reduced the titer of H5N6 virus to 1. 75 lgTCID50/100 μl. The virucidal efficacy of 0. 25% Virkon solution against some of the detected viruses was achieved by increasing the exposure time to 5 minutes. The 84 Disinfectant solutions at concentrations of 10%, 5% and 2. 5% low-ered the viral titers of three viruses below the detection limit of 1. 0 lgTCID50/100 μl, but the 1. 25% 84 Disinfectant solution only lowered the viral titers to 1. 25-2. 5 lgTCID50/100 μl. The similar results were ob-served in groups treated with SOLARSEPT solutions. 1% 84 Disinfectant solution didn′t show any virucidal activity against the three viruses after 1 minute of exposure even when the exposure time was extended to 5 minutes. Under the contaminated condition, 1% Virkon solution, 10% and 5% 84 Disinfectant solutions as well as 100% and 50% SOLARSEPT solutions lowered the viral titers below 1. 0 lgTCID50/100μl. Conclu-sion The three commercial disinfectants (1% Virkon solution, 10% 84 Disinfectant solution and SOLAR-SEPT solution) were efficient virucides for highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses subtype H5 even under the contaminated condition. Increasing the exposure time had no significant effects on the efficacy of three disinfectants after the virucidal activities were neutralized by enough viruses. No significant differences in vi-rucidal activities of three disinfectants against HPAI H5 viruses and LPAI H9 virus were observed.

Objective:To analyze the effects of essential medicine system on revenue structures at primary med-ical institutions. Methods:Data on revenue status and structures from 58 township health centers in Shanxi Province was collected to analyze changes and trends. Results:Along with growing government investments in primary medical institutions, the essential medicine system has fundamentally realized full coverage. The percentage of essential medi-cine revenue to pharmaceutical revenue rose from 20 . 45% in 2009 to 97 . 03% in 2013 , though the percentage of pharmaceutical revenue to total revenue dropped by 18 . 43%. The percentage of fiscal subsidy revenue in total reve-nue rose from 25 . 77% in 2009 to 54 . 16% in 2013 , though the percentage of business revenue to total revenue dropped in general. Conclusions:The essential medicine system requires the government’s financial support. Essen-tial medicine lists and primary financial aid policies should be further improved;doctor reimbursement and incentive mechanisms should be improved as well and unreasonable doctor service pricing and reimbursement mechanisms should be reformed.

PURPOSE: Metastasis and local recurrence are the primary causes of treatment failure and patient death in breast cancer. The aim of this study was to validate a metastasis- and local recurrenceassociated biomarker for prognostic evaluation and planning treatment strategies. METHODS: Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues from a cohort of 312 patients (all stage II and III) were used. The prevalence of CD49f⁺ cells in the patients' tumors was analyzed and correlated with clinical characteristics to determine its prognostic and clinical implications. RESULTS: CD49f⁺ tumor cells were found in a minority of tumors, with 62.8% of the samples showing not a single cell of this subtype. In the clinical characteristics analysis, which were performed with t-tests, CD49f⁺ tumors were not associated with age, tumor size, World Health Organization grade, nodal status, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 status, progesterone receptor status, or estrogen receptor status, although they were significantly associated with disease recurrence (distant metastasis or/and local recurrence). Univariate survival analysis using the Kaplan-Meier method showed that CD49f⁺ tumors were associated with markedly decreased disease-free survival (DFS); the same result was found using multivariate Cox analysis, even when only chemotherapy-treated patients were analyzed. CONCLUSION: Our results indicated that breast tumors with CD49f⁺ cancer cells are associated with an increased risk for disease recurrence after initial surgery with poor clinical outcomes (decreased DFS). Therefore, as it requires testing for only one additional protein, adding CD49f testing to conventional surgical pathology is a strategy that has great potential for prognostic and treatment-guidance purposes.

PURPOSE: It is well established that breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) play an essential role in tumor invasion for both local and distant metastasis. The aim of this study was to establish whether BCSCs could act as a prognostic and clinical marker. METHODS: We analyzed tumor tissues from 161 breast cancer patients. Dual immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence were performed on all the slides, and we analyzed the relationship between EpCAM-/CD49f+ tumor cells and key clinical and prognostic factors. RESULTS: Univariate survival analysis using the Kaplan-Meier method showed that the presence of EpCAM-/CD49f+ tumor cells in breast cancer was significantly associated with shorter disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Multivariate analysis showed that the presence of EpCAM-/CD49f+ cells was associated with shorter DFS (p=0.010; hazard ratio [HR], 2.070) and OS (p=0.002; HR, 3.235). Tumors containing EpCAM-/CD49f+ cells were also more likely to metastasize after initial surgery (p=0.048). CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that breast tumors containing EpCAM-/CD49f+ cells are more likely to undergo distant metastasis after initial surgery and are associated with a shorter DFS and OS.
