Background:The incidence of ulcerative colitis (UC)in developed countries is higher than that in developing countries,which may be related with westernized lifestyle,especially high animal protein and low complex carbohydrate diet. With the increased high fat and meat intake,synthesis and secretion of bile acid in liver is also increased,which may have an impact on the occurrence of UC. Aims:To investigate the expressions of farnesoid X receptor (FXR)and G protein-coupled bile acid receptor 5 (TGR5)in patients with UC. Methods:Thirty patients with active UC from January 2013 to June 2016 at the Affiliated Jiangning Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were enrolled,and 30 healthy subjects were served as controls. Expressions of FXR and TGR5 were determined by immunohistochemistry. Results:Compared with control group,expression of FXR was significantly decreased in UC patients (4. 63 ± 2. 07 vs. 6. 91 ± 2. 62,P =0. 00),however,no significant difference in expression of TGR5 was found between the two groups (6. 70 ± 2. 90 vs. 6. 11 ± 2. 44,P = 0. 40). Expression of FXR was significantly increased in right hemicolon colitis than in left hemicolon colitis (P < 0. 05). Conclusions:There is a significant decrease in FXR in active UC patients,indicating that FXR may have some role in the pathogenesis of UC,however,TGR5 may have no obvious effect in the pathogenesis of UC.

Using Vibrio fluvialis Ⅱ as host bacteria, 19 bacteriophages have been isolated from the 76 samples which were collected from Haliotis discus hannai ～growing seawater in Dalian marine culture company Dalian, liaoning province from May in 1996 to August I 1997. Ultrastructure of 19 bacteriophages were observed with electron to Bradley the results showed that of these bacteriophages belonged to Bradley A type, they have hexagonal heads of bacteriophages were identified with VP1,VP2,VP4,VP8 as representatives respectively. The phages remain stable at pH6. 0～10. 0, moreover VP2,VP4 and VP8 are rather stable at basic pHs. Although the characterization of heat inactivation course of VP4 is different from others, four phages are sensitive to heat and inactivated at 80℃ in 5 minutes. One step growth experiment showed that the eclipse period of VP1,VP2,VP4,VP8 are sensitive to heat and the eclipse period of VP1, VP2, VP4, VP8 are 42, 30, 46, 28 minutes. In this experiment we have isolated at least four different types phages, it suggest that in fact there is a population of phages in the seawater environment. The result of this study provided a way to find the potential value of phages as an indicator of pathogenic microorganisms Vibrio fluvilis Ⅱ in marine environment.

Objective: To analyze the efficiency of ureteroscope and biopsy in the diagnosis of tumor grade, muscle-invasiveness and multifocality in suspected upper tract urinary carcinoma (UTUC) patients in order to find out whether it can be used in the risk stratification of UTUC patients.Methods: A retrospective study of 76 UTUC patients who underwent preoperative ureteroscope and/or biopsy and received radical nephroureterectomy in Peking University Third Hospital during January 2014 to December 2016 was undertaken.Results: In this study, 76 patients were included.There were 31 males (40.8%), and 45 females (59.2%).The median age was 64.5 years (31-88), and 51 patients had the symptom of hematuresis.The tumor was located in renal pelvis in 39 patients, and in ureter in 37 patients.Post-operative pathology confirmed that all the 76 patients included in this study suffered from UTUC, of whom 21 (21.6%) were of low-grade, 51 (67.1%) were of high-grade, 4 (5.3%) were undetermined, and 47 (61.9%) patients were muscle-invasive, and 27 (35.5%) were not, and 2 (2.6%) were undetermined.Among the 50 patients, in whom the grade of the tumor could be diagnosed by biopsy, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value for low-grade tumor was 88.2%, 69.7%, 76.0%, 60.0% and 92.0%, respectively.Among the 27 patients, in whom the muscle-invasiveness could be diagnosed by biopsy, 5 patients were diagnosed with muscle-invasiveness, all confirmed by pathology after surgery and 22 patients were diagnosed with none muscle-invasiveness, turned out to be 50% muscle-invasive and 50% none-muscle invasive after surgery.The accuracy was 59.3%.The accuracy of ureteroscopic biopsy to diagnosis multifocality was 61.0%.On univariate ana-lysis, biopsy grade was associated with postoperative pathology (P=0.001), while gender, age, side, body mass index (BMI), hematuresis, preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), hydronephrosis, tumor size, location, multifocality and sessile were not associated with postoperative pathology grade.Biopsy grade (P=0.02), preoperative eGFR<90 mL/(min·1.73 m2)(P=0.025) and tumor located in pelvis (P=0.049) were associated with muscle invasiveness.Gender, age, side, BMI, hematuresis, hydronephrosis, tumor size, multifocality and sessile were not significantly associated with muscle invasiveness.Conclusion: Ureteroscope and biopsy can assist risk stratification in upper tract urothelial carcinoma patients.

Background::Although the impact of tumor complexity on peri-operative outcomes has been well established using several nephrometry scoring systems, the impact of adherent perirenal fat remains poorly defined. This study aimed to develop a novel nephrometry scoring system for predicting the peri-operative outcomes of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (LPN) by integrating and optimizing the RENAL score (RNS) and Mayo adhesive probability (MAP) score.Methods::We retrospectively evaluated 159 patients treated with retroperitoneal LPN. The patients’ demographic parameters, RNSs, and MAP scores were evaluated as potential predictors of perioperative outcomes, including operation time, estimated blood loss (EBL), and margin, ischemia, and complication (MIC) achievement rate. The independent predictors were used to develop a novel nephrometry scoring system. The predictive value and inter-observer agreement for the novel nephrometry scoring system were evaluated.Results::Tumor radius (R score), nearness to the renal sinus or collecting system (N score), and posterior perinephric fat thickness were independent predictors of peri-operative outcomes and were used to develop the RNP score. The univariate analysis revealed that the RNP score was significantly associated with operation time, EBL, and MIC achievement rate ( P < 0.050). The RNP score was an independent predictor of operation time ( P < 0.001), EBL ( P = 0.018), and MIC achievement rate ( P = 0.023) in the multivariate analysis. The RNP score was not inferior to RNS in the area under the curve for predicting peri-operative outcomes and performed better in inter-observer agreement (76.7% vs. 57.8%) and kappa value (0.804 vs. 0.726). Conclusion::The RNP score, combining the advantages of the RNS and MAP score, demonstrated a good predictive value for the peri-operative outcomes of retroperitoneal LPN and better inter-observer agreement.
