Objective To investigate whether preoperative proton pump inhibitor (PPI) would increase the risk of bacteremia after endoscopic ultrasonography guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA).Methods Dogs were randomly divided into experimental group ( n = 8) to take 20mg of omeprazole orally twice a day for 3 days before EUS-FNA, and control group (n = 10) to take placebo.EUS-FNA was performed to puncture the pancreas, and blood was collected before and after the procedure for culture.Bacteremia incidence of the two groups were compared.Results Bacteria culture was positive in 11 edogse.After excluding contamination, 1 dog in experimental group and 3 in control group were authentical bacteremia.There was no significant difference on the incidence of bacteremia between 2 groups based on Fisher test ( P = 0.383).Conclusion Aplication of PPI before EUS-FNA is not likely to increase the incidence of bacteremia.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of using three-dimensional (3D) printing technique on surgical planning and its function in enhancing the physician-patient rapport before surgery.Methods From June 2013 to January 2014,10 patients with T1 renal tumors,who were received laparoscopic partial nephrectomy,were selected in study.Left renal tumor was found in 3 cases and right renal tumor was found in 7 cases.The location of tumor included upper part of kidney in 5 cases,lower part of kidney in 3 cases and renal hilum in 2 cases,4 cases were diagnosed as T1a stage and 6 cases were diagnosed as T1b stage.64-slice enhanced CT scan was performed preoperatively.Data of DICOM format was sent for post processing.The final data was then output to 3 d printer for generating kidney models using thermoplastic plastics.After generating the model,different colors were put on the model,including pink in kidney,yellow in pelvis and ureter,red in renal artery and blue in renal vein.Plotted questionnaires were designed for medical professionals and patients,respectively.4 urological experts make the scores by this questionnaire in order to evaluate the efficacy and fidelity of the model.2 surgeons evaluated the efficacy of model after operation by comparing the actual tumor size with that measured on the models.Meanwhile,the model was used for conversation before operation.The questionnaires were also used for evaluating the effectiveness of conversion.Results 10 kidney models fabricated successfully with 3D-printing.The tumor size,position,renal vascular and collecting system could be clearly presented.Being evaluated by 4 experts and 2 performing urologists,and the mean scores was 7.8 ± 0.7.Intraoperative correlation was advocated by the performing urologists.The mean evaluation score was 7.5.The bias between real diameter of renal carcinoma and that of 3 d model was 3.4± 1.3 mm.Patients and family members preferred the demonstration of the disease and the procedure with a visual and tactilediseased organ.The scores of satisfactory were 9.0 ± 0.8.Conclusions The 3d printed model could exhibit the relationship between tumor and renal,clearly.It can help the urologists in making surgical plan,effectively.Patients' Understandings from patients and family members of the disease and the procedure to be used can be upgraded with this novel technology.

OBJECTIVETo investigate clinicopathological and genetic characteristics of primary ocular adnexal lymphoproliferative lesions.

METHODSClinical, morphological and immunohistochemical features of 37 archival cases of primary ocular adnexal lymphoproliferative lesions were studied including 5 cases of reactive lymphoid hyperplasia and 32 lymphomas retrospectively. Classification of the lymphomas were made according to the WHO classification of tumors of haematopoietic and lymphoid tissues. All cases were studied by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using dual color break apart probes of IgH, MALT1, bcl-6, c-Myc, bcl-2, CCND1, bcl-10, and FOXP1 for detection of chromosomal aberrations involving IgH, MALT1, bcl-6, c-Myc, bcl-2, cyclinD1, bcl-10 and FOXP1 genes, respectively. FISH with IgH / bcl-2 dual color dual fusion probe was used for detection of t(14;18)(q32;q21)/IgH-bcl-2. CEP18 spectrum orange probe was used for detection of aneuploidy of the chromosome 18.

RESULTSAmong 32 cases of lymphomas, 28 cases (87.5%) were extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas of mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma), 2 cases were follicular lymphoma (FL) and 2 cases diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Among the 28 cases of MALT lymphoma, chromosomal aberrations were found in 60.7% (17/28) by interphase FISH analysis. One case showed positive IgH break-apart signal with unknown partner. 16 cases showed three copies of different genes, of which, three copies of MALT1, bcl-6, and c-Myc were identified in 7 cases (25%), 12 cases (43%), and 2 cases (8%) of MALT lymphomas, respectively. In addition, 5 cases showed two genes including three copies of bcl-6 and MALT1 in 4 cases, and three copies of bcl-6 together with c-Myc in one case. Furthermore, all cases with three copies of MALT1 had trisomy 18. t(14;18)(q32;q21) was detected in both follicular lymphomas. Of the 2 DLBCL cases, one showed three copies of bcl-6 together with trisomy 18 and the other one showed three copies of bcl-6 together with IgH and c-Myc rearrangements. Chromosomal aberration was not found in all 5 cases of reactive lymphoid hyperplasia.

CONCLUSIONSThe most common entity of primary ocular adnexal lymphomas is MALT lymphoma and FISH is helpful for their differential diagnosis and classification. Trisomy 18 and three copies of bcl-6 are common chromosomal aberrations in primary ocular adnexal MALT lymphomas.

OBJECTIVETo assess the utility of P504S immunohistochemistry in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of prostatic adenocarcinoma.

METHODSLight microscopy and immunohistochemistry examinations (EnVision staining) were performed in 117 cases of prostatic adenocarcinoma, PIN, AAH, ASAP, BPH and normal prostatic tissue to correlate the morphology and protein expression of P504S, 34betaE12, and P63.

RESULTSSeventy-one of the 78 (91%) cases of prostatic adenocarcinoma stained positive for P504S, with strong cytoplasmic granular staining in most cases, and a weak or intense granular staining along the circumferential luminal and apical cell border membrane in a few cases. Negative P504S immunostaining was observed in 7 of 78 (9%) cases of prostatic adenocarcinoma, all of which were clear cell type prostatic adenocarcinoma. Cases of PIN (9 cases), AAH (6 cases) and ASAP (2 cases) showed various expression levels of P504S. Sixty-five of 68 (96%) cases of normal prostates and BPH were negative for P504S and basal cell hyperplasia cases were also negative.

CONCLUSIONSP504S is a useful marker for microscopic diagnosis of prostatic adenocarcinoma, and immunohistochemistry study using a combination of P504S and 34betaE12/p63 may be of greater benefit in aiding the differential diagnoses.

Objective:To observe the effects of FNS007 on collagen Ⅱ-induced arthritis(CIA) rat models and investigate the underlying mechanism.Methods: CIA model was induced by intradermal injection of Freunds adjuvant and bovine CⅡ.Rats were randomly divided into six groups:normal control group,model group,methotrexate group,high,middle and low doses of FNS007 groups,with 12 rats in each group.FNS007 was gived by intravenous injection,the normal control and model group were administrated with PBS.Observing the paw thickness,ankle joint width and the arthritis scores in the CIA rats during the experiment.On d 22 after injection of the drug, all rats were killed.Interferon-γ(IFN-γ),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6 (IL-6) and level of anti-CⅡantibody in serum were examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The pathological score and radiography of ankle joint were evaluated.Results: Data revealed that FNS007 treated groups showed a significant reduction in paw thickness,ankle joint width and the arthritis scores compared to model group (P<0.05,P<0.01),especially FNS007 high dose goup.The levels of TNF-α,IFN-γ,IL-6 and anti-CⅡantibodies in serum in high dose goup were significantly lower than those of model group(P<0.05,P<0.01).X-ray examination showed that FNS007 could significantly alleviate the damage of joint and decrease the radiographic scores.Pathological examination exhibited that FNS007 could significantly reduce pathological scores,alleviate inflammatory cell infiltration and synovial hyperplasia,improve the histopathological changes.Conclusion: FNS007 has a treating effect on CIA rats,and the mechanisms may be through competitive inhibition of T cell,inhibiting inflammatory cytokines and anti-CⅡantibodies secretion,regulating the abnormal immune responses.

Aim To investigate the effect of non-T cell binding peptide(FNS007)on collagen type Ⅱ-induced arthritis(CIA)in mice and the possible mechanisms.Methods The CIA model was induced by intradermal injection of bovine CⅡ+Freunds adjuvant.At the clinical onset of CIA,mice were randomly divided into 6 groups: blank control group(Control),model group,ORENCIA(abatacept)group,FNS007 low dose(1.2 mg·kg-1)group,FNS007 middle dose(2.4 mg·kg-1)group and FNS007 high dose(4.8 mg·kg-1)group.FNS007 was given by intravenous injection on the first day of arthritis and every other day until the study was terminated on d 28 after injection of the drug.The paw thickness and the ankle joint width were measured,and the arthritis scores were recorded.At termination,interferon-γ(IFN-γ),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6)and level of anti-CⅡ antibody in serum were examined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Bone injury was analyzed by X-ray imaging,and HE staining was conducted to observe the histopathologic changes and pathological score of ankle tissues.Results CIA models were successfully induced.Compared with CIA group,FNS007 high dose significantly reduced the paw thickness and the ankle joint left-right diameter,lowered arthritis scores in CIA mice,reduced serum concentrations of IFN-γ,IL-6 and anti-CⅡ antibodies,and lowered the radiographic and histologic scores.Compared with CIA group,FNS007 middle dose group showed marked reduction in the arthritis scores,IL-6 content in serum,and inhibion in the radiographic and histologic scores.The arthritis scores,concentration of IFN-γ,the radiographic and histologic scores were significantly reduced in FNS007 low dose group compared with those in model group.Conclusion FNS007 can effectively inhibit the progression of CIA through inhibiting T-cell activation and reducing inflammatory cytokines,anti-CⅡ antibodies,and histoclasia and bone destruction.

The risk factors of high trait anger of juvenile offenders were explored through question naire study in a youth correctional facility of Hubei province,China.A total of 1090 juvenile offenders in Hubei province were investigated by self-compiled social-demographic questionnaire,Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ),and State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory-Ⅱ (STAXI-Ⅱ).The risk factors were analyzed by chi-square tests,correlation analysis,and binary logistic regression analysis with SPSS 19.0.A total of 1082 copies of valid questionnaires were collected.High trait anger group (n=316) was defined as those who scored in the upper 27th percentile of STAXI-Ⅱ trait anger scale (TAS),and the rest were defined as low trait anger group (n=766).The risk factors associated with high level of trait anger included:childhood emotional abuse,childhood sexual abuse,step family,frequent drug abuse,and frequent internet using (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Birth sequence,number of sibling,ranking in the family,identity of the main care-taker,the education level of care-taker,educational style of care-taker,family income,relationship between parents,social atmosphere of local area,frequent drinking,and frequent smoking did not predict to high level of trait anger (P＞0.05).It was suggested that traumatic experience in childhood and unhealthy life style may significantly increase the level of trait anger in adulthood.The risk factors of high trait anger and their effects should be taken into consideration seriously.

Objective To investigate the impulsive traits and their influencing factors in different types of male inmates. Methods A total of 1 206 male inmates in Jiangsu province were assessed by a self-designed questionnaire of detailed criminal records,demographic data,history of substance use and Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS-11).Results ①Significant differences were found between the distribution of age (F＝30.092),educational level(χ2＝84.479),marital status(χ2＝54.386),household registration(χ2＝34.959),smoking history (χ2＝19.047)and drug use history( χ2＝563.144) of male inmates( all P＜0.01).②Difference of impulsivity was found between different types of male inmates,and scores of the impulsivity of the property inmates (total impulsivity (55.92±8.39),attentional impulsiveness (12.70±2.35),motor im-pulsiveness (18.50± 3.88),non-planning impulsivity ( 24.72 ± 4.91)) were significantly lower than other crime types (P＜0.05).③Drug use history had a positive predictive effect on impulsivity of male violent in-mates (B＝4.317,P＜0.01),and educational level(B＝－3.280,P＜0.001),age(B＝－0.094,P＜0.05)and drug use history ( B＝ 3.491, P＜ 0.05 ) had a predictive effect on impulsivity of male property inmates. Conclusion The impulsivity of male property inmates is significantly lower than others and the influence factors of impulsivity among male inmates are age,educational level and drug use history.

AIM:To explore the regulatory effect of chemokine CCL 3 on exosome secretion from human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(hBMSCs).METHODS: hBMSCs were stimulated with chemokine CCL 3 at different concentrations in vitro.The proliferation of hBMSCs was measured by CCK-8 assay and viable cell counting.Exosome se-cretion from hBMSCs was qualitatively analyzed by transmission electron microscope(TEM)and flow cytometry, and the quantitative analysis was carried out by flow cytometry and nanoparticle tracking analysis(NTA).RESULTS:Compared with control group,the viability of the hBMSCs detected by CCK-8 assay was increased when hBMSCs were treated with CCL3(P<0.05).The results of viable cell counting demonstrated that the number of hBMSCs was raised in CCL 3 group in a dose-dependent manner(P<0.05).The results of flow cytometry showed that hBMSCs expressed 3 CCL3-related spe-cific receptors,CCR1,CCR5 and CCR9.Compared with control group,the fluorescence intensity of CCR9 in CCL3 group was obviously enhanced.However,no significant difference of fluorescence intensity for CCR 5 and CCR1 was observed be-tween the 2 groups.The results of NTA demonstrated that the secretion capacity of CCL 3-induced hBMSCs was far less than that in control group(P<0.05).However, the microvesicles larger than 100 nm in CCL3 groups were increased(P<0.05).The above results indicated that the higher concentration of CCL 3 induced the lower secretion of exosomes.In addi-tion,the results of flow cytometry demonstrated that CCL 3-induced hBMSCs showed lower quantity of CD 9 +exosomes than those in control group(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:CCL3 promotes the proliferation of hBMSCs but depresses the secre-tion of exosomes in a dose-dependent manner.CCL3 affects the size distribution of exosomes and increases the number of nonfunctional microvesicles of larger than 100 nm in size.CCL3 induces the expression of CCR9 in hBMSCs.
