Postoperative pancreatic leakage remains a persistent problem after pancreaticoduodenectomy.For patients with a soft and nonfibrotic pancreas,double binding continuous hemstitch suture is an optimal method for anastomosis.From January 2011 to June 2012,92 cases of periampullary carcinoma with a soft pancreas underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy,and then a modified technique of pancreaticogastrostomy was performed with 2 continuous hemstitch sutures placed in the mucosal and seromuscular layers of the posterior gastric wall,respectively.The median time for pancreaticogastrostomy was 12 minutes,and only 15 patients had postoperative complications.Two patients developed pancreatic leakage(1 grade A and 1 grade B)postoperatively.Pancreaticogastrostomy with double binding continuous hemstitch sutures is a simple and safe reconstruction procedure for patients with a soft and fragile pancreas who received pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays an important role in tissues angiogenesis. The adaptation of animals to hypoxic environment is relative to the microvessel density (MVD) in tissues. To further explore the adaptation mechanisms of plateau zokor (Myospalax baileyi) to the hypoxic-hypercapnic burrows, the VEGF mRNA and the MVD in cerebral tissues of the plateau zokor were studied. Total RNA was isolated from liver, and VEGF cDNA was obtained by RT-PCR, then the VEGF cDNA was cloned and sequenced. The coding sequence of plateau pika (Ochotona curzniae), rat (Rattus norvegicus) and mouse (Mus musculus) VEGF cDNA are obtained from GenBank, and the nucleotide and amino acid sequence homology of plateau zokor VEGF cDNA coding sequence with that of plateau pika, rat and mouse were analyzed and compared by using of bioinformatics software. The VEGF mRNA was detected by real-time PCR, and the MVDs in cerebral tissues of the plateau zokor, plateau pika and Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat were measured by immunohistochemical staining. The results showed that the open reading frame of the plateau zokor VEGF was 645 bp, and the coding sequence of the plateau zokor VEGF cDNA shared 92.1%, 93.6% and 93.8% nucleotide sequence homology to that of the plateau pika, rat and mouse, respectively. The deduced amino acid sequence of the plateau zokor VEGF cDNA was composed of 188 amino acids and the amino acids from 1 to 26 were signal peptide sequence. The plateau zokor VEGF188 was 90.2%, 94.9% and 94.4% homologous to that of plateau pika, rat and mouse. The level of VEGF mRNA in brain of the plateau zokor was significantly lower than that of SD rat, but there was no obvious difference in VEGF mRNA level between plateau zokor and plateau pika. The MVD in brain of the plateau zokor was markedly higher than that of plateau pika and SD rat. In conclusion, plateau zokor enhances its adaptation to the hypoxic environment by increasing the MVD. The level of VEGF mRNA in the brain of plateau zokor is lower than that of SD rat, which may be as a result of inhibition by the higher concentration of carbon dioxide in the burrow.

OBJECTIVETo retrospectively analyze the effects of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) on childhood chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML).

METHODOf the 24 consecutive cases, 16 were boys and 8 were girls. The median age of patients was 12 (3 - 16) years old; 16 cases were in chronic phase (CP) of CML, 1 case in accelerated phase (AP) and 5 cases in blastic phase (BP). Allo-HSCT from HLA identical siblings were performed for 5 cases, HLA haplotype was performed for 14 cases and unrelated allo-HSCT for 5 cases. Twenty-four cases underwent allo-HSCT with conditioning regimen of BUCY. Prophylaxis of graft versus host disease (GVHD) included CsA + MTX plus MMF. The average follow-up was 36 months.

RESULTAll of patients were successfully engrafted. The 5-year overall survival (OS) of the 24 cases was 81%. Four patients died after allo-HSCT including 3 cases in BP from haploidentical donors and 1 case in CP from HLA identical sibling. The 5 cases who received unrelated allo-HSCT have been alive. Among the 10 cases who survived over 5 years, 3 had chronic GVHD.

CONCLUSIONChildren with CML could be treated effectively with allo-HSCT. There were no significant differences among different donors. Transplantation to children with CML should be performed as early as possible. Preparative regimen adjustment before transplantation, the transplantation of associated comorbidities and effective prevention and treatment for CML patients after prolonged graft survival of high quality have important significance.

The objective of current study was to investigate the quasispecies of hepatitis E virus in swine. The partial ORF2 region of HEV envelope gene from four swine HEV strains was amplified by RT-nested polymerase chain reaction (RT-nPCR). After cloning and transformation of PCR products, 20 positive clones of each HEV isolate were subject to sequencing and DNA analysis. The homology among the different clones of each isolates was 96.8%-99.7%, 98.8%-99.7%, 98.8%-99.7% and 100%, respectively, while there was 96.8%-100% sequence identity at the nucleotide level compared with HEV strains isolated in Shanghai (SAAS-JDY5). This study confirmed that there existed quasispecies of HEV in swine.

OBJECTIVETo study the potential aging effect on workers exposed to acrylonitrile (ACN).

METHODSThe deletion rates of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in peripheral blood nucleate cells of 47 exposed workers and 47 non-exposed workers (as control), as well as 12 old people and 12 young people were measured with polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

RESULTSThe positive rates of mtDNA deletion in peripheral blood nucleate cells were 17.02% in the workers exposed to ACN and 25.00% in group of old people. However, the mtDNA deletion was not detected in the control group and young people.

CONCLUSIONSACN could induce mtDNA deletion in peripheral blood nucleate cells of the exposed workers. There may be a potential molecular effect of occupational ACN exposure on workers' aging.

To study the pharmacokinetics, excretion characteristics and plasma protein binding rate of asperosaponin VI (A-VI) and its active metabolite hederagenin (M1). A-VI and M1 concentrations in plasma, bile, urine and feces were determined by established LC-MS/MS to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters. The plasma protein binding rate of A-VI was determined by equilibrium dialysis method. the double peaks was observed in the A-VI plasma concentration-time curve, after rats were orally administered with low, medium and high doses of A-VI (0.03, 0.09, 0.27 g x kg(-1)). The Cmax1 and Cmax2 of A-VI were (28.88 +/- 49.78) and (4.480 +/- 1.872) microg x L(-1), (35.19 +/- 23.53) and (22.11 +/- 16.15) microg x L(-1), (73.37 +/- 37.28) and (132.2 +/- 160.7) microg x L(-1), respectively. The AUC0-t, of A-VI were (43.21 +/- 37.32), (133.9 +/- 102.5) and (779.6 +/- 876.9) microg x h x L(-1), respectively. The t1/2 of A-VI were (3.3 +/- 0.8), (3.2 +/- 2.3) and (4.5 +/- 1.2) h, respectively. The Cmax of M1 were (16.03 +/- 9.336), (26.41 +/- 11.95) and (28.71 +/- 5.874) microg x L(-1), respectively. The AUC0-t, of M1 were (105.6 +/- 73.60), (260.0 +/-153.9) and (323.1 +/- 107.9) microg x h x L(-1), respectively. The t1/2 of M1 were (4.1 +/- 3.4), (4.4 +/- 2.3), (3.9 +/- 0.9) h, respectively. No significant gender difference was found in the in vivo pharmacokinetics of A-VI and M1. There was no accumulation of A-VI and M1 after multiple administrations of A-VI (0.09 g x kg(-1)). After oral administration of A-VI, the double peaks were also observed in biliary and urinary excretion rate-time curves for A-VI. M1 was detected in the feces samples at 6 h after oral administration. The average plasma protein binding rate of A-VI was 92. 9% in rats.

OBJECTIVETo explore the value of [18F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose(18 FDG) positron emission tomography and computer tomography (PET/CT) in the qualitative diagnosis and localization of Cushing's disease.

METHODSTotally 12 patients underwent transsphenoidal adenomectomy and were histopathologically proven to be with Cushing's disease. 18FDG PET/CT whole-body and brain scannings were performed preoperatively; meanwhile, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and 99mTc-octreotide examination were done in all 12 cases, and inferior petrosal sinus sampling (IPSS) were done in 6 patients.

RESULTSThe sensitivity of 18FDG in diagnosing Cushing's disease was 91.6% (11/12), but MRI was 66.7%(8/12). For the 6 patients who performed IPSS, 5 of them was diagnosed to be with Cushing's disease, and only 50% (3/6) were localized correctly in the pituitary gland.

CONCLUSIONS18FDG PET/CT whole-body scan can exclude ectopic adrenocorticotropin-secreting tumors and localize the pituitary lesions with higher accuracy than MRI. Therefore, it is useful for suspected Cushing's disease, especially for patients their MRI and IPSS have negative or paradoxical results.
