Objective To explore the operation opportunity of cholecystectomy for senile patients with acute cholecystitis combined with underlying disease.Methods 82 elderly patients with acute cholecystitis complicated with underlying diseases underwent cholecystectomy were selected,they were divided into two groups according to the different operation time:the early operation group and the delayed operation group,41 cases in each group.The patients in early operation group were given operation in 72h,while the delayed operation group was given operation more than 72h after attack.The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,intraoperative tissue adhesions,intraoperative exudation,hospitalization time,cost of hospitalization and complications of the two groups were observed and com-pared.Results The operation time of the two groups were (45.32 ±1 2.23)min,(50.89 ±1 3.34)min,there was no significant difference (P >0.05),the intraoperative tissue adhesions of the delayed operation group was more than the early operation group,and the intraoperative hemorrhage and exudation in the early operation group were significantly higher than those of the delayed operation group (P <0.05),and the hospital stay and cost of hospitalization were sig-nificantly lower than those of the delayed operation group (P <0.05).1 case in the early operation group occurred pulmonary infection,3 cases with incision infection,the incidence of complications was 9.76%;1 case in the delayed operation group underwent laparotomy operation,2 cases in the delayed operation group had pulmonary infection,inci-sion infection in 4 cases,the incidence rate of complication was 1 4.63%,there was no significant difference between the two groups (P >0.05).Conclusion The optimal operation timing of acute cholecystitis combined with basic dis-eases in the elderly patients underwent cholecystectomy is within 72h.For patients who can not be immediately given operation due to various reasons,delayed cholecystectomy is safe and feasible.

Objective To study the clinical value of orbital magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) in diagnosis and making a judgment about the curative effect of glucocorticoid in patients with Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO).Methods A total of 106 patients with GO were divided into active GO group or inactive GO group according to whether clinical activity score(CAS) ≥3 or not,respectively.T2 relaxation times(T2RTs) (ms) and areas(mm2) of four extra-ocular muscles (EOMs) (superior,inferior,medial,and lateral rectus) were directly measured by MRI T2-Mapping.Correlation analysis of T2 RTs and areas with eyeball motility,diplopia,exophthalmus,visual acuity and intraocular pressure (IOP) were also performed.The T2RTs and areas of EOMs before and after intravenous methylprednisolone(iv MP) pulse therapy were recorded,respectively.Results The mean T2RTs (88.9 ± 13.8)and mean areas(58.1 ± 23.8) of EOMs in active GO were significantly greater than those in inactive GO (80.6 ± 10.0and 46.2 ± 18.6,respectively),bing both significantly greater than those in volunteers with normal eyes(76.2 ±4.7and 30.3 ± 6.1,respectively) (P＜0.01).Maximal T2RTs and maximal areas of EOMs showed significant positive correlation(P＜0.01),and both were positively correlated weakly with CAS,reduced movement of eyeball,diplopia,exophthalmus and loss of visual acuity (P＜0.01).On the contrary,maximal T2RTs and maximal areas of EOMs showed negative correlation or no correlation with spontaneous retrobulbar pain,painful eye movement,redness of eyelids and abnormal IOP.Even if 1 ≤ CAS＜3,ophthalmic symptoms and signs also showed a positive responses to iv MP in patients with moderate to severe GO as long as prolonged T2RTs occurred at least in one of EOMs.The maximal T2RTs,maximal areas,mean T2RTs and mean areas of EOMs were significantly decreased at the end of iv MP treatment,meanwhile ophthalmic symptoms and signs were obviously improved.Conclusions Prolonged T2RTs,especially accompanied by enlarged area on the identical EOMs is an remarkable symbols of acute inflamed muscles.The findings suggested that the use of prolonged T2RTs can improve diagnostic sensitivity and predict the curative effect of iv MP in patients with moderate to severe GO and CAS ≥ 1.

Objective To investigate the relationship between different topographic locations and neurological deteriorations (ND) in patients with acute new isolated pontine infarction.Methods One hundred sixty-eight patients with acute new isolated pontine infarction during arch 2012 to March 2016 were identified by diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) for retrospective review.Patients were divided into two groups according to their clinical symptoms:patients with ND and patients without ND.According to neuroimaging of DWI,the topographic location of pontine infarction was divided into three types:The upper,middle,and lower ones,and the correlations of ND with risk factors,laboratory examination results,clinical manifestations and different topographic locations were explored by statistical tests.Results Of 168 patients,26.8％ (45/168) were diagnosed with ND,and 73.2％ (123/168) were diagnosed without ND.Univariate analysis showed that there were differences in female ratio [62.2％ (28/45) vs 41.5％ (51/ 123)],smoking ratio [13.3％ (6/45) vs 26.0％ (32/123)],mean length of hospital stay [(22.83 ± 7.12)d vs (19.31 ± 7.65)d],ratio of worse short-term clinical outcomes [77.8％ (35/45) vs 33.3％ (41/123)],and ratio of lower pontine infarction [55.6％ (25/45) vs 26.0％ (32/123)] between two groups (P ＜ 0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that lower pontine infarction was the independent risk factor of ND (OR =1.953,95％ CI:1.092-3.535,P =0.029).Conclusions Topographic location of lower pons lesions may be reliable predictor of ND in acute new isolated pontine infarction.

Objective To analyze the correlation between clinical features and renal dysfunction in patients of acute lacunar infarction with progressive cerebral microbleeds (CMBs). Methods Two hundred and sixty-five patients with first-episode acute lacunar infarction were selected. The serum creatinine was measured within 24 h of admission and the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated. The brain MRI (including gradient-echo images) was examined within 2 d of admission and after 1 years of follow-up, respectively. The progressive CMBs was assessed with microbleeds anatomical rating scale (MARS), and the patients were divided into progressive CMBs group (progressive group, 42 cases) and non progressive CMBs group (non progressive group, 223 cases). The clinical features of 2 groups were compared and the correlation between progressive CMBs and renal dysfunction was analyzed. Results The age, 24 h pulse pressure, incidences of renal dysfunction and CMBs in progressive group were significantly higher than those in non progressive group: (69.8 ± 5.8) years vs. (61.5 ± 4.9) years, (63.3 ± 3.1) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) vs. (51.8 ± 4.2) mmHg, 69.0％(29/42) vs. 39.9％(89/223) and 57.1％(24/42) vs. 25.1％(56/223), and the platelet was significantly lower than that in non-progression group:(168 ± 35) ×109/L vs. (189 ± 40) ×109/L, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05 or<0.01). The Logistic regression analysis result showed that renal dysfunction and CMBs were Independent risk factors of progressive CMBs (OR = 1.571 and 1.054, 95％ CI 1.042 - 2.493 and 1.010 - 1.142, P<0.05). Conclusions The rate of renal dysfunction is higher in patients of acute lacunar infarction with progressive CMBs, and progressive CMBs are associated with renal dysfunction.

Objective To investigated the protective ways of intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT)for submandibular gland function in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.Methods From March 2010 to November 2012,101 patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma were enrolled into study.They were treated with IMRT and evaluated by face to face dry mouth questionnaire during the follow-up of 3,6,12,18,24 and more than 24 months,meanwhile,their dose volume histogram of submandibular gland were taken into consideration.Results The average contralateral median dose and that of ipsilateral submandibular gland were (45.69±7.22) Gy and (51.64±8.20) Gy,respectively,and the V35,V40,V45,V50 were 95.82 ％,69.99 ％,46.90 ％,25.50 ％,and 100 ％,96.50 ％,82.24 ％,60.98 ％,respectively.There were positive relationship between the xerostomia grading of 3,6,and 12 months after radiotherapy and the average dose of submandibular gland or the V35,V40,V45,V50.After 6 month,the xerostomia in 77.2 ％ (78/101) was significantly improved,and after 12 months,less than 5 ％ of patient complained about G3 or more grade of xerostomia.Conclusions When using IMRT in nasopharyngeal carcinoma,it' s necessary to reduce the irradiated volume and the dose of submandibular gland.It is confined that the median dose of contralateral submandibular gland should be less than 40-45 Gy,and V40 or V45 ≤66.7 ％ or ≤50 ％,which can effectively protect the function of salivary gland.

Objective To identify and analyze the effective compositions of Schistosoma japonicum 31-32 kDa proteins by using the techniques of proteomics.Methods The total proteins were prepared from 32-day adult worms of Schistosoma japonicum.After two-dimensional(2-D)gel electrophoresis,the distinct protein spots from 2-D gels were isolated and analyzed by MALDI-TOF-MS.Results A total of 13 protein spots,within the range of 31-32 kDa,were detected in the 2-D gels.Three of them had high homology with Actine-2 of S.mansoni,glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase of S.japonicum and cathepsin B endopeptidase of S.mansoni.Conclusions The 31-32 kDa antigens contain 3 important antigens:actine-2,glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and cathepsin B endopeptidase,which have been demonstrated to have certain protective effect against S.japonicum.Our findings can facilitate the development of multi-epitope vaccine against S.japonicum.

Objective: To investigate the association of both maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and gestational weight gain (GWG) with childhood overweight and adiposity in preschool children. Methods: A total of 4 303 preschool children aged 3-5 years were enrolled in our study during June and November 2016 in Guangzhou. Children defined as overweight and obesity were according to the criteria of WHO while weight status during maternal pre-pregnancy was using the China Adult Reference. Gestational weight gain was defined according to the Institute of Medicine guidelines. Results: After adjusting the possible confounding factors, results from the logistic regression analysis showed that both maternal pre-pregnancy overweight and obesity would increase the risk for both childhood overweight and obesity (OR=1.820, 95%CI: 1.368-2.422). The analysis of covariance results also showed that both maternal overweight and obesity before pregnancy and excessive maternal weight gain during pregnancy increased the BMI Z-score in children. Maternal GWG over the recommended level were associated with both the childhood overweight and obesity (OR=1.296, 95%CI: 1.007-1.667). Joint associations of pre-pregnancy BMI and inappropriate GWG were also noticed in the study. Stratified analysis was conducted in three groups according to the pre-pregnancy BMI of the mothers. Result showed that there was no statistical difference in the risks of either overweight or obesity in children (P>0.05). However, when compared to mothers with adequate pre-pregnancy higher BMI and adequate GWG, under the combination of high pre-pregnancy BMI and excessive GWG, their adverse effects on childhood overweight and obesity were much higher (OR=1.574, 95%CI: 1.029-2.409). Conclusions Both high pre-pregnancy BMI and inappropriate GWG were associated with greater BMI of their offspring. Pregnant women should follow the appropriate weight gain program and help their children to prevent from becoming obese.
