The effect of gastric ischemia-reperfusion (GI-R) on gastric mucosal cellular apoptosis and proliferation was investigated using histological, immunohistochemical methods in Sprague-Dawley rats. The GI-R model was established by clamping the celiac artery for 30 min and reperfusing for 0, 0.5, 1, 3, 6, 24, 48, 72 h, respectively. Mild gastric mucosal injury was induced by ischemia alone. However, the injury worsened and reached the maximum at 1 h after reperfusion, almost simultaneously with the gastric mucosal cellular apoptosis increase and cellular proliferation decrease in gastric mucosa. Then, gastric mucosal cells began to repair by increasing gastric cellular proliferation, which achieved the maximum at 24 h after reperfusion. The mucosal lesions were almost completely repaired at about 72 h after reperfusion. These results indicate that the gastric mucosal injury after GI-R is mainly induced by reperfusion. The damaged gastric mucosa could initiate its repairing mechanism immediately through inhibiting cellular apoptosis and increasing the number of proliferative cells, which substitute the damaged cells gradually. The plerosis almost completes in three days after reperfusion showing a strong self-repair ability of gastric mucosa.

Objective To investigate the different memory outcomes in temporal lobe epilepsy patients underwent different surgical approaches.Methods Two hundred forty-eight patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and hippocampal scle-rosis underwent standard anterior temporal lobectomy ( ATL, n=83 ) or selective amygdalohippocampectomy ( SAH, n=165) from 2009 to 2013.All the patients underwent clinical memory function assessment before surgery, 3 months and 2 years after surgery respectively.Results The memory quotient ( MQ) of patients who underwent brain surgery in the domi-nant hemisphere significantly decreased 3 months after surgery (74.5 ±16.2, 75.6 ±19.5) compared to presurgery MQ (82.9 ±15.8, 83.2 ±21.2) in both ATL and SAH groups (P<0.05).Although MQ was slightly recovered at 2 years af-ter surgery, MQ (75.1 ±14.1, 76.1 ±17.6) was still significantly lower compared with presurgery MQ (P<0.05).A-mong this, both the decrease extent of the MQ 3 months after surgery and 2 years after surgery were smaller in the SAH group than in the ATL group (7.6 vs.8.4;7.1 vs.7.8).The MQ of patients who underwent brain surgery in the non-dominant hemisphere (either ATL or SAH ) increased slightly 3 months after surgery (87.2 ±15.1, 88.1 ±16.9) com-pared to presurgery MQ (85.5 ±13.5, 85.3 ±19.7) although the difference was not statistically significant.The MQ of these two groups improved significantly 2 years after surgery (92.8 ±12.7, 93.7 ±17.1)(P<0.05).The improvement extent of the MQ was larger in the SAH group than in the ATL group (8.4 vs.7.3).Conclusions SAH may be better than ATL in the maintenance of memory function in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and hippocampal sclerosis.

The first genetic linkage map of Salvia miltiorrhiza was constructed in 94 F1 individuals from an intraspecific cross by using simple sequence repeat (SSR), sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) and inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers. A total of 93 marker loci in the linkage map, consisting of 53 SSR, 38 SRAP and 2 ISSR locus were made up of eight linkage groups, covered a total length of 400.1 cm with an average distance of 4.3 cm per marker. The length of linkage groups varied from 3.3 -132 cm and each of them included 2-23 markers, separately. The result will provide important basis for QTL mapping, map-based cloning and association studies for commercially important traits in S. miltiorrhiza.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the kinetics of hematopoietic cell chimerism in the early period after non-myeloablative stem cell transplantation (NAST) and to investigate the correlation between molecular and hematologic assessment of engraftment or rejection.
METHODShort tandem repeat-polymerase chain reaction (STR-PCR) analysis of chimerism status was carried out in 6 patients who received NAST from HLA-matched sibling donors.
RESULTSIn 5/6 patients, the peripheral blood samples collected on the first day after allograft infusion displayed the presence of mixed chimerism. STR-PCR analysis revealed a gradual increase of the donor-specific allelic signal which became dominant over the recipient-specific allele by day +7. On day +14, hematologic chimerisms were completely donor origin. Their molecular engraftments (ME) were detected at a median time of 6 days, preceding hematologic engraftment by a median of 5 days (P > 0.05). But the sixth patient showed more than 50% host residual cells on day +7 and had no signs of ME on day +14.
CONCLUSIONIt suggested that molecular monitoring of the early dynamics of chimerism after NAST could be useful in predicting engraftment, or rejection. If the engraftment was less than 50% on day +7 and failed to get ME on day +14, the graft rejection would occur.

To explore hemorrhage risk and the clinical significance of abnormal change of prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), plasma fibrinogen (FIB), plasma thrombin time (TT) and d-dimer (D-D) in de novo acute leukemia (except for APL), the different bleeding manifestations of 114 cases of de novo acute leukemia with different coagulation indexes were analyzed retrospectively. The correlation between these blood coagulation indexes and the possible correlative clinical characteristics were analysed, including age, sex, type of acute leukemia, initial white blood cell(WBC) and platelet(Plt) count, the proportion of blast cells in bone marrow and cytogenetic abnormality of patients at diagnosis. The results indicated that the incidence of abnormal blood coagulation was as high as 78.1% for de novo AL patients. These patients with 5 normal blood coagulation indexes may have mild bleeding manifestation, but the more abnormal indexes, the more severe bleeding. Both PT and D-D were sensitive indexes for diagnosis of level II bleeding. Incidence of abnormal blood coagulation significantly correlates with the proportion of blast cells in bone marrow (χ(2) = 4.184, OR = 1.021, P < 0.05) and more with D-D (P < 0.01), while age, sex, type of AL, WBC count, Plt count and abnormality of cytogenetics did not correlate with abnormal blood coagulation. It is concluded that the coagulation and fibrinolysis are abnormal in most patients with de novo acute leukemia. More abnormal indexes indicate more severe bleeding, and both PT and D-D are sensitive indexes for diagnosis of level II bleeding. Higher proportion of blast cells in bone marrow predicts higher incidence of abnormal blood clotting. Acute leukemia with elderly age, high white blood cell count and adverse cytogenetics do not predict severer abnormal blood clotting. Detection of PT, APTT, TT, FIB, and D-D may help to judge whether the patients are in a state of hypercoagulability or disseminated intravenous coagulation, which will provide experiment evidences for early intervention and medication.

This study was purposed to analyze the clinical characteristics of multiple myeloma (MM) patients with and without renal impairment (RI) and to investigate the effect of bortezomib (Bor) on MM with RI. Clinical data of 39 MM patients (15 cases with RI, 24 cases without RI) received treatment of Bor in department of hematology in our hospital from Jan 2007 to Aug 2011 were collect and analyzed in term of clinical characteristics, curative efficacy, outcome of renal impairment and toxic reaction associated to chemotherapy. The results showed that (1) the obvious difference of the disease type, the creatinine, uric acid, serum calcium and β2-microglobulin levels existed in patients with and without RI, while there were no significant difference in hemoglobin and globin levels; (2) there were no significant difference in overall reaction rate and overall survival rate between MM patients with and without RI, however the median survival time of patients without RI was longer than that of patients with RI; (3) the RI could be reversed after the treatment with Bor, and the effect was most obvious after the first cycle. 20% MM patients with RI had recovered from RI after the first cycle; and the recovery rate from RI got up to 38.4% after the second cycle. The decline of creatinine levels had no difference between MM patients with or without RI after the second cycle. (4) The adverse events included gastrointestinal symptoms, peripheral neuropathy, thrombocytopenia and infection. There was also no difference between the 2 groups. It is concluded that Bor-based regimens for the MM patients with RI are effective and safe, and the renal function would be reversed after 2 cycle of Bor-based regimen.

The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical situation of invasive fungal infections in patients with hematological malignancies, and discuss the susceptible factors and precautions. 541 patients with hematological malignancies from 2008 Jan to 2011 Dec in hospital 307 of Chinese PLA were statistically retrospectively analyzed in term of clinical manifestation, image examination, culture results of secretions, therapy and so on. The results showed that 63 out of 541 patients got invasive fungal infections. The respiratory tract and intestinal tract were the most common infection sites (62.34 and 19.48, respectively); Candida albicans (66.67) and Candida glabrata (12.82) were the most common pathogens. It is concluded that the main risk factors are as follows: primary diseases, chemotherapy, glucocorticoid, leukopenia after chemotherapy, applications of broad-spectrum antibiotics and aging. It is suggested that a stratification of risk factors is helpful in preventing and treating invasive fungal infections.
