Five fractions,Ⅰ(R_f0.06)、Ⅱ(R_f0.21)、Ⅲ(R_f0.45)、Ⅳ(R_f0.60)、Ⅴ(R_f0.75)have been obtained after HT-toxin from race 1 of Exserohilum turcicum 99-2 isolated by TLC. In all of these fractions,only fractions Ⅱ had specific toxicity to the corn leaves with Ht1 gene. Then fractions Ⅱ-1、Ⅱ-2、Ⅱ-3 were isolated from fractions Ⅱ by HPLC purification,and the bioassay result showed only fraction Ⅱ-3 was toxigentic to corn leaves with Ht1 gene but non-toxigentic to corn leaves without Ht1 gene. Fractions Ⅱ-1、Ⅱ-2 and Ⅱ-3 were scanned by UV-Vis spectrophotometer. It was shown that the fractions Ⅱ-1 and Ⅱ-2 had analogous spectrum,and especially the fraction Ⅱ-3 had a special peak at 300nm.

Objective To study the prevention and treatment of chylous leakage after Whipple operation.Methods Clinical data of 381 patients underwent Whipple operation from Jan 2010 to march 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Among 381 patients,23 patients had chylous leakage,the incidence was 6.04％.While in 89 patients,in which intraoperative precautionary physical ligation or mattress suturing of the lymphatic vessels were undertaken,no chyle leakage occurred ; Most of chyle leakage occurred in malignant tumor after radical resection(21 patients),most chylous leakage was found 5-8 days after surgery,with daily volume of 260-450 ml.All patients of chylous leakage were cured by conservative treatment.Conclusions Chylous leakage are common in PD.Intraoperative preventive measures such as lymphatic duct ligation or safe suturing can effectively prevent chyle leakage.Conservative therapy heals most chylous leakage after Whipple operation.

BACKGROUND: The extramedulary fixation system including dynamic hip screw (DHS) is commonly used in treatment of Intertrochanteric fracture. However, in patients with unstable intertrochanteric fracture, extramedulary fixation system often leads to the failure of fracture fixation. Intramedulary fixation system including both proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) and InterTan nail has been widely used in the treatment of unstable intertrochanteric fractures. OBJECTIVE:To compare the therapeutic effects of extramedulary fixation system containing DHS, PFNA and InterTan nail in the treatment of intertrochanteric fracture. METHODS:Literatures were searched in Wanfang, PubMed, Embase, Medline, the Cochrane library to screen literatures published from January 1990 to November 2014. Relevant studies addressing extramedulary fixation system containing DHS, PFNA and InterTan nail were screened. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: 346 articles were screened, and 13 of them were in accordance with the inclusion criteria. 1 271 patients with different types of intertrochanteric fracture were assessed in this study. Compared to DHS group, patients treated with PFNA and InterTan nail had shorter operation time and less blood loss. No significant difference in rehabilitation time and Harris score was detected among three kinds of fixation methods. Additionaly, PFNA and InterTan nail had a similar effect. These findings verify that compared with DHS, PFNA and InterTan nail can optimize the surgery, but cannot elevate postoperative outcomes.

Objective To compare changes in indexes and analyze their values in prognosis of severe burn patients with sepsis.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted. The patients with severe burn sepsis admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from August 2014 to December 2016 were enrolled. The blood culture was positive in the clinical diagnosis of sepsis. According to the prognosis, the patients were divided into death group and survival group. Their general information, vital signs, blood routine examination, serum sodium (Na+), serum glucose (Glu), C-reactive protein (CRP) and arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) at the time of admission and diagnosis of sepsis as well as the level of serum procalcitonin (PCT) at admission, diagnosis of sepsis and 1-8 days of post diagnosis were also compared. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyze the prognostic value of each index, and multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the influence of each index on the survival time, and the survival curve of Kaplan-Meier was analyzed for dead patients.Results There were 25 cases of severe burn patients with sepsis, which were admitted to hospital within 12 hours after injury; the time of diagnosis of burn sepsis was (14±6) days; 8 cases of survival; 17 cases died, the mortality rate was 68.0%, the time from diagnosis of sepsis to death was (28±14) days. The age of the death group was significantly higher than that of the survival group (years: 41±12 vs. 29±9,t = 2.598,P = 0.016), but there was no significant difference in the gender, total burn area,Ⅲ degree area, and the time of diagnosis of sepsis between the two groups. The platelet count (PLT) at the diagnosis of sepsis in death group was significantly lower than that of the survival group (×109/L: 69±43 vs. 180±108,t = -2.773, P = 0.023), and the PCT at 1-8 days of post-diagnosis in the death group was significantly higher than that of survival group [μg/L: 4.4 (2.2, 9.0) vs. 1.6 (0.7, 2.3),Z = -2.521,P = 0.012], but there was no significant difference in body temperature, heart rate, white blood cell count (WBC), percentage of neutrophils (Neu), Na+, Glu, CRP, PCT, PaCO2 at the time of admission and diagnosis of sepsis and PLT at the time of admission between the two groups. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under ROC curve (AUC) of age, PLT at the time of diagnosis and PCT at 1-8 days of post-diagnosis of sepsis was 0.808, 0.779, 0.825, respectively, for predicting the prognosis of patients with severe burn sepsis (allP < 0.05). At the cut-off age of 32, the sensitivity was 73.3% and the specificity was 75.0%. As the cut-off of PLT was 138×109/L at the time of diagnosis, the sensitivity was 92.3% and the specificity was 75.0%. As the cut-off of PCT was 2.39μg/L at 1-8 days of post-diagnosis of sepsis, the sensitivity was 73.3% and the specificity was 87.5%. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that age and PLT at the time of diagnosis were the favorable factors for the survival time of patients with severe burn sepsis (β value were -1.834, -0.029, respectively, bothP < 0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis for patients in the death group showed that the median survival time of patients ≥32 years old was longer than that of patients < 32 years old (days: 32 vs. 9); 18-day cumulative survival rate was significantly higher than that of patients < 32 years old [83.3% (10/12) vs. 25.0% (1/4),χ2 = 9.705,P = 0.003].Conclusion Age, PLT at diagnosis of sepsis and PCT at 1-8 days after diagnosis of sepsis could be used as prognostic indexes for severe burn patients with sepsis.

Objective To explore the difference in pain threshold between related acupoints and the specificity of acupoints in cholecystitis patients.Method Actual measurement was made in 80cases, a normal group of 30 cases (volunteers without psychological and physiological diseases) and a patient group of 50 cases (volunteers with cholecystitis). The probe of an algometer was perpendicularly placed on the selected acupoint, the pressure point was pushed and pressing was stopped immediately after the subject felt pain. The pain thresholds displayed by the measured acupoints were recorded. The pain thresholds of the selected acupoints were compared between the normal and patient groups and thedifferences were analyzed to explore the specificity of acupoints.Result A comparison of the pain thresholds of the Back-Shu points of the Bladder Meridian of Foot-Taiyang between the patient and normal groups showed that there were no significant differences in the thresholds of the left Back-Shu points Geshu (BL17), Ganshu (BL18), Danshu (BL19), Pishu (BL20), Weishu (BL21) and Dachangshu (BL25) of the bladder meridian between the two groups (P>0.05) and there were significant differences in the thresholds of the right Back-Shu points Geshu, Ganshu, Danshu, Pishu, Weishu and Dachangshu of the bladder meridian between the two groups (P<0.01). The pain threshold was significantly lower in thepatient group than in the normal group. A comparison of the pain thresholds of the main points of the Liver Meridian of Foot-Jueyin, the Gallbladder Meridian of Foot-Shaoyang and the stomach meridian between thepatient and normal groups showed that there were significant differences in the thresholds of the right points Liangmen (ST21), Riyue (GB24) and Qimen (LR14) of the liver, gallbladder and stomach meridians (P<0.01) and no significant difference in the threshold of the right point Taichong (LR3) between the two groups (P>0.05). The pain thresholdwas significantly lower in thepatient group than in the normal group. There were no significant differences in thethresholds of the left points Liangmen, Riyue, Qimen and Taichong of the Liver Meridian of Foot-Jueyin, the Gallbladder Meridian of Foot-Shaoyang and the stomach meridian between the patient and normal groups (P>0.05).Conclusion The pain sensitivity of ipsilaterali related acupoints increase and the relative specificity of acupoints exist in cholecystitis patients.

Objective To study the clinical application of laparoscope combined with gastroscope surgery in patients with gastric stromal tumor. Methods The clinical data of 50 patients with gastric stromal tumor were retrospectively analyzed. Among them 20 cases were treated with traditional laparotomy (laparotomy group), and 30 cases were treated with laparoscope combined with gastroscope surgery (combination group). The intraoperative bleeding, operation time, postoperative recovery time, postoperative hospitalization time and complications were compared between 2 groups. Results One case in combination group received open surgery (3.33%, 1/30), mainly because of obesity, and tumor rupture occurred in 1 case during operation. All specimens of the 2 groups had no tumor residue. There were no statistical differences in tumor diameter and operation time between 2 groups (P>0.05); the intraoperative bleeding, postoperative recovery time and postoperative hospitalization time in combination group were significantly lower than those in laparotomy group:(26.33 ± 14.21) ml vs. (42.57 ± 15.67) ml, (37.96 ± 8.80) h vs. (60.14 ± 13.41) h and (6.42 ± 2.80) d vs. (12.04 ± 4.69) d, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). The 2 groups had no death, stomach bleeding, anastomotic stenosis and anastomotic leakage. The laparotomy group had postoperative incision fat liquefaction in 3 cases and incision infection in 2 cases, and the combination group had pulmonary infection in 1 case. All were cured after symptomatic treatment. Conclusions Laparoscope combined with gastroscope surgery in the treatment of gastric stromal tumors has a short operation time, less blood loss, faster postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery, shorter hospitalization time, and no major complications. It is a more ideal and minimally invasive surgery.
