Objective To follow-up the imaging findings in the SARS.Methods The serial thoracic images in 15 cases of SARS were taken in 7 months from the onset of this disease,and the imaging findings were analysed.Results The detecting rate of the pathological changes in lung by spiral CT was higher than that of X-ray film(t = 5.5228,P

Objective To compare intramedullary nail (IN) and dynamic hip screw (DHS) regarding their effects on hip abduction following fixation of intertrochanteric fractures.Methods From January 2008 to December 2015,310 patients with intertrochanteric firacture were treated at our department.They were divided into 2 groups depending on the manner of treatment.198 patients (71 males and 127 females) were subjected to intramedullary nailing,with an average age of 74.7 ± 5.6 years;there were 50 cases of 31-A 1,134 ones of 3 1-A2 and 14 ones of 3 1-A3 according to the AO classification.112 patients (35 males and 77 females) were subjected to dynamic hip screwing,with an average age of 74.1 ± 6.7 years;there were 24 cases of 31-A1,78 ones of 31-A2 and 10 ones of 31-A3.The 2 groups were compared in terms of time for weight-bearing ambulation and stand on one leg,gait,pelvic tilt,range of hip active abduction,muscle strength of the abductor and hip function at the final follow-up.Results Of this series,284 patients were followed up for 1.5 to 8.5 years (average,3.6 years) and 26 patients died.The IN group achieved significantly better outcomes in terms of time for weight-bearing ambulation (37.6 ±4.9 d),time for stand on one leg (60.1 ± 9.5 d),cases of normal gait and normal pelvic tilt (171 and 179),muscle strength of the abductor (62.3 ±4.4 N · m),and range of hip active abduction than the DHS group (53.0 ±8.4 d;71.0 ± 12.0 d;67 and 85;56.6 ± 3.3 N · m,respectively) (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in the hip function at the final follow-up(91.4％ versus 84.5％ in the excellent and good rate)(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Compared with dynamic hip screwing,intramedullary nailing has a limited effect on hip abduction so that the patients may benefit from quicker functional recovery and faster improvement in quality of life.

Objective To observe the clinical safety and prognosis effect of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the treatment of acute cholecystitis complicating gallstones.Methods Seventy cases of acute cholecystitis complicating gallstones treated by laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the hospital from December 2013 to October 2016 were retrospectively analyzed,and randomly divided into experimental group and control group.The patients in the control group received clinical open surgery,while the experimental group received laparoscopic surgical treatment.The operative effect,postoperative recovery and complication occurrence rate were observed in the two groups.Results The operation time,intraoperative bleeding volume and hospitalization time in the experimental group were significantly better than those in the control group(P＜0.05);the exhaust time,pain duration,drainage time in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05),and the incidence rate of postoperative complications in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The operative strategy by adopting laparoscopic cholecystectomy for treating acute cholecystitis complicating gallstones has good clinical value.

AIM To investigate the improving effect of Suoquan Capsules (Linderae Radix,Alpiniae oxyphyllae Fructus and Dioscoreae Rhizoma) on mice with diabetic cystopathy and its mechanism of action.METHODS Sixty mice were randomly assigned into normal group (n =8) and model group (n =52);the diabetic models of the latter were induced by high-fat feeding combined with streptozotocin (STZ) injection,then modeled mice (n =32) were randomly divided into model,Mecobalamin Tablets,low-and high-dose Suoquan Capsules groups.The influences of Suoquan Capsules on fasting blood glucose (FBG),glycated serum protein (GSP) level and general conditions were observed.The bladder leak point pressure (BLPP) was determined.Histopathological staining was performed on urinary bladder.And the expressions of substance P and NK1 receptor were detected by double immunofluorescent staining.RESULTS There were no significant differences in FBG,GSP,body weight,food intake and water consumption among various groups.The high-dose Suoquan Capsules significantly decreased urine volume of mice.Compared with the model group,the treatment with Suoquan Capsules markedly increased BLPP,the expressions of substance P and NK1 receptor were significantly increased,and the histopathology of bladder in mice was obviously improved.CONCLUSION Suoquan Capsules improves the diabetic cystopathy in mice,and its mechanism maybe related to the up-regulation of substance P and NK1 receptor expressions in bladder tissue.

To evaluate the effects of rhG-CSF on mobilization of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) of mouse bone marrow at different time point, thirty mice were randomly divided into rhG-CSF treatment group and control group. The mice were subcutaneously injected with rhG-CSF in a dose of 80 microg/kg or saline for 5 days. The bone marrow and peripheral blood were obtained at time points of 6, 12, 168 hours after final injection of rhG-CSF or saline. Bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMNCs) were seeded at density of 1 x 10(6) MNCs onto 12-well plate for culture expansion in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, and the number of colony forming unit - fibroblast (CFU-F) was counted after 14 days. The cells were collected by trypsinization and the surface antigens CD34, CD133, CD90 and CD105 were analyzed by flow cytometry. The multi-differentiation of MSCs were done in the culture condition of induced-adipocyte and osteocyte. Peripheral blood MNCs examination was same as the bone marrow. The results indicated that the number of CFU-F of bone marrow in rhG-CSF group was more than that in control group (p < 0.01), the number of CFU-F in rhG-CSF group at 6 hours was more than that at 12 hours and 168 hours, respectively (p < 0.01). There was no obvious difference between CFU-F at 12 hours and at 168 hours (p > 0.05). MSCs were positive for CD90, CD105 and negative for CD34 and CD133. MSCs were found to differentiate into adipocyte and osteocyte in vitro. The CFU-F of PBMNCs obtained and cultured in vitro in the same culture conditions could be observed after the rhG-CSF injection at 6 hours, but cloning efficiency was (0.50 +/- 0.11) x 10(-6) MNCs and showed statistical difference as compared with control. It is concluded that rhG-CSF to mobilize hemopoietic stem cells can be used to induce mouse MSCs in vivo expansion, which showed the peak value within 6 hours after final injection of rhG-CSF. rhG-CSF have the mini-mobilization effect on murine MSCs derived from bone marrow.

OBJECTIVETo prepare OANO-1 microspheres and test their release in vitro.

METHODOANO-1 microspheres were made by W/O/W-liquid drying process. The surface morphology of the microspheres was observed by SEM. The mean diameter and the size distribution of microspheres, the drug loading and the incorporation efficiency were examined. The release of OANO-1 microspheres in vitro was examined by small cup method. The accumulated release percent of OANO-1 microspheres was examined.

RESULTThe OANO-1 microspheres were regular in their morphology. The average particle size was 8.59 microm with over 90% of the microspheres being in the range of 1-12 microm. The drug loading and the incorporation efficiency were 48.39% and 19.32% respectively. The accumulated release percent of OANO-1 microspheres was 78.4% after 108 h. The release half-life t1/2 was 40.8 h and Higuchi equation was Y = 0.1326 X - 0.4782, r = 0.9951.

CONCLUSIONThe preparation of OANO-1 microspheres was well. The release in vitro of OANO-1 microspheres showed significant sustained release.

Begomoviruses are single-stranded DNA viruses and cause severe diseases in major crop plants worldwide. Based on current genome sequence analyses, we found that synonymous codon usage variations in the protein-coding genes of begomoviruses are mainly influenced by mutation bias. Base composition analysis suggested that the codon usage bias of AV1 and BV1 genes is significant and their expressions are high. Fourteen codons were determined as translational optimal ones according to the comparison of codon usage patterns between highly and lowly expressed genes. Interestingly the codon usages between begomoviruses from the Old and the New Worlds are apparently different, which supports the idea that the bipartite begomoviruses of the New World might originate from bipartite ones of the Old World, whereas the latter evolve from the Old World monopartite begomoviruses.
