Objective To construct and express human papillomavirus type 11(HPV11) E7 gene with recombinant adenovirus vectors. Methods HPV11 E7 gene was amplified by PCR and directionally cloned into vector pENTR-TOPO to form TOPO-E7 plasmid. E7 gene was transferred into the pAD/CMV/V5-DESTTM gateway vector by LR recombination reaction with pAD/CMV/V5-DESTTM gateway vectors and TOPO-E7 plasmid. The recombination vector was digested by Pac I enzyme and transfected into 293A cell by Lipofectamine method to obtain recombinant adenovirus vectors pAD-E7. Expression of E7 on HaCaT cells infected with pAD-E7 vectors was analyzed by confocal microscopy. Results The recombinant plasmid TOPO-E7 was identified and confirmed with enzyme digestion and sequencing. Recombinant adenovirus vectors pAD-E7 were generated efficiently with a titer of 1.4 ? 107 pfu/mL in transfected 293A cells. E7 protein could be identified in HaCaT cells with confocal microscope 48 h after infected with recombinant adenovirus vector. Conclusions The results indicate efficient expression of HPV11 E7 gene in eukaryotic cells by recombinant adenovirus mediated transfer, which facilitates further research of its function.

Objective To explore early diagnosis and treatment of congenital esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula.Methods Clinical data of 11 patients with congenital esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula were analyzed retrospectively.Definite diagnoses were made for all cases in 24 hours through making an esophagus opacification with acetrezoic acid or iodinated oil.And an esophagus anastomosis outside pleura was made.Some experience of diagnosis and therapy were summarized.Results All of the 11 cases underwent operation.Among them,9 cases were cured (81.8%),and 2 cases died(18.2%).Anastomosis stenosis of esophagus was found in 1 case after operation,which was cured through esophagus dilatation.Tracheoesophageal fistula was found in another case after operation and it was cured through combined treatment including anti-infection, nutritional support and sufficient draining.Conclusion Early diagnosis and surgical treatment, postoperative care,prevention and cure of complication are very important to improve the survival rate of the patients with congenital esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula.

OBJECTIVETo discuss the reasons and the treatments for the femoral refracture.

METHODSFrom 2004 to 2008, 10 cases of femoral refracture after plate removal were selected and treated with open reduction and bone nail internal fixation, included 4 males and 6 females ranging from 19 to 48 years with an average age of 33 years old. According to Müller classification, there were 4 cases of type A, 3 of B, 3 of C. The skeletal tissues were taken for pathological analysis.

RESULTSTen patients were followed-up for 10 to 18 months (averaged 14 months). All wound healed at one stage,there were no complications. The fuction of lower limbs walking and weight loading werer recovered. Pathological section showed that part of the lamellar bone tissues were necrotic. The bone architectures were chaotic, micrangium blocked, Haversian canals were atrophy, new vessels and Haversian canals growed in necrotic bone. The tunnel in rigid bone and new Haversian system were formed. The structure was cutting cone. It was the process of new bone substitutting necrotic bone in bony remodeling.

CONCLUSIONThe internal fixation using ordinary plates overwhelmingly destroy blood circulation of bone and cause necrosis of bone. It can also effect bone remodeling and descent mechanical property. Refracture can readily happen after the plate removal. Treatment of open reduction and bone nail internal fixation can achieve excellent and good effect.

OBJECTIVETo explore the distribution characteristics of basic syndromes and its related factors in patients with chronic functional constipation (CFC).

METHODSThe complete data of 538 patients with CFC were collected and initial database was established with Epidata 3. 0. TCM syndrome typing was performed. The distribution characteristics of basic syndromes were analyzed using SPSS 17. 0 Software. The univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were performed with SPSS 17. 0 Software to determine basic syndrome related factors such as age, engaged professionals, sleep quality, depression, mental stress, interpersonal relations, work fatigue, stimulating beverage, exercise conditions, Western medicine type of constipation, and so on.

RESULTSThe TCM syndrome frequency of CFC patients was sequenced from high to low as qi deficiency syndrome (380 cases, 70.6%), qi stagnation syndrome (337 cases, 62.6%), blood deficiency syndrome (234 cases, 43.5%), yin deficiency syndrome (220 cases, 40.9%), yang deficiency syndrome (197 cases, 36.6%), and others(58 cases, 10. 8%) . Most patients were complicated with complex syndromes, and the most common complex syndromes were qi deficiency complicated qi stagnation syndrome (275 cases, 51.1%) and qi deficiency complicated blood deficiency syndrome (222 cases, 41.3%). Aging, work fatigue, and exercise conditions were main related factors for qi deficiency syndrome (P <0. 01, P <0. 05). Poor emotional (depression and anxiety tendencies), mental stress, interpersonal relations, defecation barriers constipation were main related factors for qi stagnation syndrome (P <0.01). Sleep quality and poor emotional (depression and anxiety tendencies) were main related factors for blood deficiency syndrome (P <0. 01, P < 0.05). Stimulating beverages were main related factor for yin deficiency syndrome (P <0.05). Engaged in mental work and slow transit constipation were main related factors for yang deficiency syndrome (P < 0. 01, P <0. 05).

CONCLUSIONSCFC is featured as complex syndromes. The most common complex syndromes were qi deficiency complicated qi stagnation syndrome and qi deficiency complicated blood deficiency syndrome. Basic syndrome related factors such as age, engaged professionals, sleep quality, poor emotional (depression and anxiety tendencies), mental stress, interpersonal relations, work fatigue, stimulating beverage, exercise conditions, Western medicine type of constipation were associated with the distribution of CFC syndromes.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the treatment of femoral neck fractures after the fixation of ipsilateral femoral shaft fracture by antegrade intramedullary nail.

METHODSA retrospective study on 12 patients with femoral neck fractures after the fixation of ipsilateral femoral shaft fracture by antegrade intramedullary nail, which were identified intraoperatively or postoperatively from January 2000 to January 2010. All the patients were treated with 2 supplemental screws placed anteriorly and posteriorly to intramedullary nail seperately. All the patients were periodic followed-up, fractures union and functional recovery were evaluated.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 10 to 36 months (averaged 16.5 months). The mean healing time was 3.6 months in femoral neck fractures and 5.4 months in femoral shaft fractures. No osteonecrosis of femoral head was found. According to Harris scoring system for hip function, 7 patients got an excellent result, 3 good, 2 fair.

CONCLUSIONTreatment of femoral neck after the fixation of ipsilateral femoral shaft by antegrade intramedullary nail with 2 screws placed anteriorly and posteriorly to intramedullary nail separately is feasible, and has the advantages of reliable fixation, less trauma and high rate of fracture healing.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the association of the serum testosterone (T) level with metabolic syndrome (MS).

METHODSWe enrolled in this investigation 1,006 men aged 30-60 years in Beijing and obtained the data on their blood pressure (BP), waist circumference (WC), fasting blood glucose (FBG), serum triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) and serum testosterone (T). The men were divided into an MS group and a non-MS (NMS) group based on The Chinese Adult Dyslipidemia Prevention Guide 2007. The results were compared and analyzed.

RESULTSThere was no statistically significant difference between the ages of the two groups (P >0.05). Systolic BP (SBP), diastolic BP (DBP), WC, FBG and TG were significantly higher, while serum T and HDL-C remarkably lower in the MS than in the NMS group (P <0.001). The serum T level was markedly decreased with the increase of MS components (P <0.01). Both Pearson's correlation coefficients and multiple linear regression analyses showed that the serum T level was negatively correlated with age, WC, SBP and TG (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONLow serum T level may predict the development of MS in men.
