Aim To build a simple experiment model of rat colon injury induced by acetic acid in vitro and to observe the effects of melatonin on this model.Methods On the basis of the establishment of rat colon injury model with acetic acid in vitro,we observed the colon mucosal damage caused by different concentrations of acetic acid(0,0.1%,0.2% and 0.4%) for different time(5,10,15,20,25 and 30 min),determined the content of lactic dehydrogenase(LDH),malondiadehyde(MDA) and mucus in medium,and examined the histological changes of colon mucosa by Alacian Blue method.On the basis of the establishment of this model,the experiment was designed into normal group,model group(acetic acid of 0.4%,time for 30 min) and melatonin treatment group(the final concentration 0.1,1.0、10 mmol?L~(-1)),and the indicators described above were detected to investigate the protective effects of melatonin.Results The LDH content of medium elevated gradually and the colon mucosal epithelial cells were injured by acetic acid in dose-and time-dependent manner,the mucosal edema,colon-wall depth and epithelium lose were observed at the same time,the MDA content of medium enhanced and mucus reduced correspondingly,but no significant change of the mucin expression in mucosal epithelial cells were observed.Pretreatment with melatonin reduced the release of LDH and MDA while promoted the secretion of mucus.Conclusion Colon mucosa of rats was injured by acetic acid in dose-and time-dependent manner in vitro.Acetic acid can impair the mucosal-mucus barrier by oxidating injured cell memberane.Melatonin can strengthen the barrier function of colon mucosa by its anti-oxidant action,attenuate the direct damage on colon mucosa of acetic acid.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and side effects of sequential and concurrent chemoradiation in the treatment of colorectal cancer.Methods 90 patients with colorectal cancer were divided into ⅡAof 21 cases (Ⅱa group),Ⅲa of 24 cases (Ⅲa group),Ⅱb of 23 cases (Ⅱb group),Ⅲb of 22 cases (Ⅲa group) according to the stage of the disease.Group Ⅱa and Ⅲa were treated by sequential chemoradiation therapy,Ⅱb group and Ⅲb group were treated by concurrent chemoradiation therapy.The clinical efficacy and toxicity were observed and compared.Results All patients were followed up at 1 and 3 years,no one lost and died.1-year and 3-year OS and PFS between group Ⅱa and group Ⅱb had no significant differences (P > 0.05).1-year OS had no significant difference between Ⅲa group and Ⅲb group (P > 0.05),1-year PFS,3-year OS and PFS had significant differences (x2 =3.993,4.224,4.304,all P < 0.05).The incidence rate of toxicities between Ⅱa group +Ⅲa group (28.89%) and group Ⅱb+ Ⅲb (51.11%) had significant difference (x2 =4.629,P < 0.05) ; while for each system specific incidence rate of side effects had no significant difference (P > 0.05).Conclusion Compared with sequential chemotherapy in the treatment of colorectal cancer,concurrent chemoradiotherapy can effectively prolong overall survival and progression-free survival time,and can reduce the costs of treating,although increasing the treatment toxicity,but still within the acceptable range of patients,it has better application value in clinical.

With the use of high pure HF and HNO3 reagents, and autoclaves made of high purity Rerfluoroalkoxy ( PFA ) material, a solution sample digestion technique effective for phosphate samples, subjected to high temperature fusion, was established. The whole procedure was concise, fast and of low blank value. Key factors such as the amount and ratios of the reagents, the digestion temperature and time, were systematically optimized, it was found that within 0. 5 h at 150 ℃, only 1. 7 mL of total reagent consumption could lead to a complete sample decomposition. Most importantly, the samples were not required to be ground to fine powder, which greatly reduced the risk of contamination. In addition, an effective liquid_liquid extraction procedure based on 5_nonylsalicylaldehyde oxime as the extractant was established for matrix separation and analyte preconcentration. Under the optimal extraction conditions of 5 mL of 15% extractant, 0. 5% HNO3 of extraction acidity and 20% HNO3 of back_extraction acidity, a matrix separation efficiency of over 99. 999% could be realized and a preconctration factor of 10 could be obtained, which resulted in complete elimination of the matrix_induced interference and great enhancement of the analytical sensitivity. After optimization of the operation parameters of ICP_MS, high signal to background detection of Cu in 20%HNO3 at 840 W of plasma power and low sample uptake rate were realized. The detection limits of 2. 5 ng/g, RSD of 3. 3% for six detections of parallel samples, and the recovery of 94. 3% for spike test were obtained, respectively. The method was finally applied to three real samples analysis, and the results agreed well with the data from laser adsorption loss experiment.

Objective To understand the distribution and antimicrobial resistance of pathogens isolated from blood culture in a hospital in Sanya city.Methods Blood culture specimens and antimicrobial susceptibility testing results in this hospital from January 2013 to December 2015 were analyzed retrospectively.Results A total of 356 isolates of pathogenic bacteria were isolated from 3 195 blood culture specimens,the positive rate was 11.14%,including 215(60.39%)gram-negative bacterial strains,122(34.27%) gram positive bacterial strains,and 19(5.34%) fungi strains.The top 3 gram negative bacteria were Escherichia coli (n =90,25.28%),Klebsiella pneumoniae (n =60,16.85%),and Burkholderia pseudomallei (n =24,6.74%);the most common gram positive bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus (n =42,11.80 %),coagulase-negative staphylococcus (n =38,10.67 %),and Streptococcus spp.(n =33,9.27 %).Resistance rates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae to cefoperazone/sulbactam,amikacin,and carbapenems were all lower than 10.00%;resistance rates of Burkholderia pseudomallei to most antimicrobial agents were lower than 10.00%.There were no strains of main gram-positive bacteria that were found to be resistant to linezolid and vancomycin.Conclusion Gram-negative bacteria are the main pathogens causing bloodstream infection in this hospital in recent years,especially the isolation rate of Burkholderia pseudomallei is higher,which should arouse more attention in clinic.
