Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of endoscopic papillary balloon dilation (EPBD) and endoscopic papillary balloon dilation (EPBD) combined with small endoscopic sphincterotomy (SEST) in treatment of large choledocholithiasis. Methods 78 patients with large choledocholithiasis from January 2014 to December 2015 were randomly divided into EPBD group, and combination treatment group. The level of bilirubin, transaminase, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) before and after the operation, the success rates of stone removal, serum amylase of 24 h after the operation, the operation times of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and whether complicated with postoperative pancreatitis were compared between the two groups. Results There was no significant difference of the success rates of stone removal, serum amylase of 24 h after the operation, the operation times of ERCP between the two groups. The level of bilirubin, transaminase, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was declined after EPBD or EPBD and SEST, and the results of the two groups had no statistical significance (P > 0.05). Also there was no significant difference of the incidence of postoperative pancreatitis, postoperative bleeding and postoperative hyperamylasemia between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion EPBD is worthy of promoting because it has a similar clinical efficacy and safety to EPBD and SEST in treatment of large choledocholithiasis.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of covered and uncovered metal stents in treatment of malignant biliary obstruction. Methods 123 cases of malignant biliary obstruction from May 2003 to May 2014. The survival time, the stent patency rates, the effective and biochemical indexes between the two groups were analyze and compared, follow-up period ended in March 2015. Results The level of bilirubin, transaminase, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was declined after the covered and uncovered metal stents placed by ERCP, and the results of the two groups had no statistical significance (P > 0.05). Also there was no significant difference of the incidence of postoperative cholangitis and the cumulative survival rate between the two groups (P > 0.05). One year survival rates was related to tumor types (r = -1.55, P < 0.05). Conclusions Covered and uncovered metal stents for malignant biliary obstruction have no statistically significant about remission of liver function, stent occusion and the cumulative survival rate.

Objective: To explore the relationship between serum sodium level and early prognosis in patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: A total of 7461 STEMI patients within 12h of onset who matched the diagnostic standard of European society of cardiology and American college of cardiology were retrospectively studied. According to serum sodium levels within 24h of admission, the patients were categorized into 3 groups: Serum sodium≥135 mmol/L group, Serum sodium 130-134 mmol/L group and Serum sodium<130 mmol/L group. The baseline condition, 30-day mortality with other adverse events and the effect of neuroendocriology inhibitor treatment were compared among 3 groups; their relationships to serum sodium level were analyzed. Results: Serum sodium<130 mmol/L group had the higher 7-day and 30-day mortality than the other 2 groups, both P<0.001; compared with Serum sodium≥135 mmol/L group, Serum sodium<130 mmol/L group presented the higher occurrence rates of 30-day cardiac shock, heart failure (HF) and life-threatening arrhythmia, P<0.001. With adjusted affecting factors of age, diuretic and reperfusion treatments, serum sodium<130 mmol/L was still related to 7-day and 30-day mortality (OR=1.69 and OR=1.57). Both single and multivariable analysis indicated that serum sodium<130 mmol/L was related to cardiac shock (OR=1.75 and OR=1.64), HF (OR=1.42 and OR=1.30) and life-threatening arrhythmia (OR=1.53 and OR=1.34). In all 3 groups, the patients using ACE inhibitor, β-blocker or both medications had reduced 30-day mortality than those without such medication, allP<0.001; the reduction was more obvious in Serum sodium<130 mmol/L group than the other 2 groups,P<0.001. Conclusion: Serum sodium level<130 mmol/L within 24h of admission was the risk factor for the early stage main adverse events as mortality, cardiac shock, HF and life-threatening arrhythmia in acute STEMI patients.

Objective To investigate the inhibitional effect of MRPI-shRNA on expression of MRP1gene in K56.2/AS2 cells resistant to arsenic trioxide. Methods Three pieces of MRPI-shRNA were designed,synthesized and transfected into K562/AS2 cells with lipesome. Expression level of MRPI mRNA were determined by real time fluorescent quantitative PCR. MRPI protein expression and intracellular accumulation of DNR were assayed with flow cytometry. Results After treated with MRPI-shRNA, the expression level of MRPI mRNA and MRPI protein in K562/AS2 cells decreased significantly(79.1±0.07) % and (62.48±0.86) %,respectively (P <0.05). The intracellular accumulation of DNR increased significantly(P < 0.05). Conclusion MRPI-shRNA can down-regulate the expression of MRPI gene in K562/AS2 cell line.

Objective To explore the iodine nutritional status of people after adjusting iodine content in iodized salt in Anhui Province. Methods In 2014, 30 counties (cities, districts) were selected in Anhui Province according to the probability ratio sampling method (PPS), and one school was selected in each county (city, district), and 50 children aged 8 - 10 years were selected in each school. Urine and household salt samples were collected, urine and salt iodine levels were tested, and thyroid was examined using B-ultrasound. In the township where the school was located, 20 pregnant women's urine samples and household salt samples were collected for urine and salt iodine detection. The salt iodine level was measured by direct titration, Chuan salt and other fortified salt iodine levels were determined by arbitration method (GB/T 13025.7-2012). Urinary iodine was determined by arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry (WS/T 107-2006). Results A total of 1575 children's household salt samples were collected, the median salt iodine was 23.77 mg/kg, the qualified iodized salt consumption rate was 93.65％(1475/1575); 600 household salt samples were collected from pregnant women, the salt iodine median was 23.50 mg/kg, the consumption rate of qualified iodine salt was 96.33％( 578/600 ) . A total of 1575 urine samples were collected from children, the median urinary iodine was 242.20 μg/L; six hundred urine samples were collected from pregnant women, and the median urinary iodine was 158.15μg/L, 43.33％(13/30) of the counties (cities, districts) pregnant wowen median urinary iodine < 150 μg/L. A total of 1575 thyroid glands were examined in children aged 8 to 10 years, and the thyroid enlargement rate was 3.75％ (59/1575). Conclusion The iodine nutrition of children aged 8 - 10 years in Anhui Province is higher than the appropriate level, but the iodine is not in the excessive state, and the iodine nutrition of pregnant women in some counties (cities, districts) is insufficient.

Objective:To establish an automatic colorimetric method for determination of iodine in drinking water by enzyme-labeled instrument (hereinafter referred to as this method).Methods:The water iodine was measured in the range of 0 - 10 μg/L and 0 - 100 μg/L, experiments were carried out on linear relationship, detection limit, precision and accuracy of this method. And the results were compared with the National Reference Laboratory for Iodine Deficiency Disorders recommended arsenic cerium catalytic spectrophotometry method.Results:In the range of 0 - 10 μg/L and 0 - 100 μg/L, all│ r│ > 0.999 0, the detection limits were 0.6 and 1.1 μg/L (samples were 200 and 100 μl), respectively; the relative standard deviation ( RSD) of water samples of low, medium and high iodine mass concentrations were < 3%, the recovery rates ranged from 92.5% to 108.3% and 93.2% to 108.9%, with a total average recovery of 100.0% and 100.3%, respectively. This method and arsenic cerium catalytic spectrophotometry method were used to detect 40 water samples in the range of 0 - 10 μg/L and 0 - 100 μg/L, there was no significant difference in water iodine content between the two methods ( t = 0.99, P > 0.05). Conclusion:This method has good linear curve relationship for determination of water iodine content, good precision and high accuracy, and it is suitable for wide application.
