Objective To investigate the safety and long-term therapeutic results of anatomical hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods 90 patients underwent anatomical hepatectomy from January,2003 to January,2010.The tumor size was ≤5 cm in 38 patients,and ＞5 cm in 52 patients.The tumor number was a single lesion in 58 patients,and multiple lesions in 32 patients.Cirrhosis was present in 46 patients (55.42％); cancer embolus was present in 34 patients (37.78％).There were 64 patients in Child-Pugh A and 26 patients in B.The operating time,blood loss and blood transfusion were recorded and analyzed.Complications and liver function were monitored after surgery.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the survival rates.Log-rank test was used to analyze factors associating with postoperative recurrence.Independent factors influencing tumor-free survival and overall survival were analyzed by Cox-model logistic regression.Result There was no perioperative death.The incidence of complications was 31.1％ (28/90).The recurrence rate was 51.1％ (46/90).The 1-,3-,5 year tumor-free survivals were 92.2％,67.3％ and 49.7％％00,respectively.Positive resection margin and satellite nodule were independent factors for recurrence (RR19.22,95 ％ confidence interval 5.85～63.17).The 1-,3-,5-year overall survivals were 94.4％,80.0％ and 60.0％,respectively.Positive resection margin and TNM were independent factors for overall survival (RR 2.013,95％ confidence interval 1.28～3.17).Conclusions Anatomical hepatectomy was a safe and efficacious procedure to treat HCC.Positive resection margin and TNM were independent factors associated with overall survival.Anatomical hepatectomy had the advantages in ensuring a lower rate of negative resection margin.

Objective:To detect the functional role of Fascin1 and its related molecular mechanisms in migration and invasion capacity of glioma cells,we utilized gene specific small interference RNA of Fascin1 in cell line U87 MG. Methods:Fascin1-siRNA or negative siRNA was transfected into U87 MG cells of control group or experiment group. Transwell method was employed to assess the migration and invasion capacity of glioma cells. Western blot analysis was used to detect the protein expression of Fascin1,pAKT and pSTAT3. The impact of PI3K/AKT pathway and STAT3 pathway on migration and invasion of U87 MG cells was verified,via applying LY294002 and LY294002,which was inhibitor of the two pathways respectively. Results:As compared to control groups,the migration and invasion capacity of transfected glioma cells were attenuated about 52% or 43%(P<0. 05),accompanied with the decreased phos-phorylation of AKT and STAT3. As utilizing the inhibitors of AKT and STAT3,attenuated migration and invasion capacity of U87 MG cells were observed. Conclusion:Down-regulated expression of Fascin1 could suppress the migration and invasion capacity of U87 MG cells by inhibiting the phosphorylation of PI3K/AKT pathway and STAT3 pathway.

Objective To investigate the water infectivity in key water regions,and analyze the transmission risk of schisto-somiasis in suspicious and high-risk environments in Hubei Province in 2016. Methods Schistosome-endemic areas of the Yangtze River,the Hanbei River and the Fu River were chosen as the surveillance and forecast sites. The water infectivity was detected by using the sentinel mice during the flood season. The infection status of residents in the villages around the surveil-lance sites and the activities of human beings and domestic animals were surveyed. The emergency response system was initiated when the water infectivity areas were detected. Results From May to June,among the ten surveillance sites of the first batch, two positive spots with infected mice were found,accounting for 20％. All the recovered mice(totally 200)were dissected:five mice were infected,with a total infection rate of 2.5％. Totally five schistosome adult worms were collected,with mean worm bur-den of 1 worm per infected mouse. The site with cercariae-infected water body started the emergency response and no epidemic occurred. From August to September,among the eight surveillance sites of the second batch,the recovered mice(totally 160) were dissected,and no infected sentinel mice were found. Conclusion The sentinel mice method plays an important role in an-alyzing the schistosomiasis transmission risk in Hubei Province.

Ralstonia metallidurans CH34 was isolated from the deposit of a znic factory .The degradation of phenol by R .metallidurans CH34 was investigated. The results showed that R . metallidurans CH34 possesses high ability to degrade phenol with the biodegradation rate constant of 0.33 . The optimal pH , temperature and volume of medium for phenol degradation are pH 7.0 , 30℃ , and 20%(v/v), respectively . In addition , this strain retains its ability to degrade phenol in the presence of high concentration of heavy metal ion .The sodium citrate , sodium succinate can enhance the degradation of phenol.

Objective To observe the CT findings of hypoplasia of cochlear nerve foramen. Methods CT findings of cochlear nerve foramen were observed in 50 volunteers (100 ears)and in 9 cases with hypoplasia of cochlear nerve foramen.The width of the bony canal for the cochlear nerve were measured in both groups.Results The fissure in the cribriform area were seen in every volunteers.The width of the bony canal for the cochlear nerve was (2.32?0.25)mm in normal group.The stenosis of cochlear nerve foramen were shown in 9 cases (10 ears),the lacking of fissure in the cribriform area were seen in 8 ears, while the fissure were shown in 2 cases.The stenosis of internal auditory canal was shown in 4 cases. Abnormality of vestibule and horizontal semicircular canal was shown in one case.The maximum value of the width of the bony canal for the cochlear nerve was 1.5mm,the minimum value was 0.9 mm.Conclusions The typical CT findings of hypoplasia of cochlear nerve foramen were stenosis of cochlear nerve foramen,the lacking of fissure in the cribriform area and cochlear nerve foramen without helix shape.The hypoplasia of cochlear nerve foramen may be a subtype of cochlear dysplasia.

In order to determine the suitable harvest time of Dendrobium officinale from different regions in Yunnan province, the drying rate, mannose and glucose peak area ratio, extract, contents of polysaccharide and mannose of D. officinale samples collected from six producing areas in Ynnnan province were determined. The results indicate that drying rate and the contents of polysaccharide and mannose arrived the peak from January to April, extract reached a higher content from September to December, and mannose and glucose peak area ratio from October to February of the coming met the requirment of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Hence, the suitable harvesting time of D. officinale in Yunnan province is from December to February of the coming year,according to the experimental results and the request of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia.
