ve To explore the effective methods for removing the nitrogen oxides in tobacco smoke main stream. Methods Porphyrin and ferriporphyrin were added into cigarette filter with doses of 2.0, 4.0 and 8.0 ?g per cigarette. The effectiveness of removal of nitrogen oxides in tobacco smoke main stream by porphyrin and ferripor-phyrin were determined by muriatic acid naphthaline-ethylene diamine spectrophotometry. Results The contents of nitrogen oxides in tobacco smoke main stream decreased with the increases of the contents of porphyrin and ferripor-phyrin added into the cigarette filters (porphyrin: r= -0.9943, P

Objective To observe the effect of different doses of fat emulsion on blood lipid and liver function in critically ill premature infants. Methods 40 babies were randomly divided into 4 groups,receiving fat emulsion 0,1,2,3 g?kg~(-1)?d~(-1) for 5 days respectively. The blood levels of cholesterol and triglyceride and the serum biochemical indexes relative to liver functions were measured before and after the period of 5 days. Results Blood lipid and serum ?-GT levels did not change remarkably in 1 or 2 g?kg~(-1)?d~(-1) group, but increased significantly in 3 g?kg~(-1)?d~(-1) group. Serum bilirubin levels decreased in all groups, but it was significantly higher in the group of 3 g?kg~(-1) ?d~(-1) than the others. Conclusion It is suggested that the blood lipid level would increase with 3g?kg~(-1)?d~(-1) of fat emulsion used in critically ill premature infants and that the use of fat emulsion would retard the falling of serum bilirubin level when used in newborn infants with byperbilirubinemia.

Objective To study the relation between the surgical extent and number of lymph node dissection and the effect of metastatic lymph node number on the prognosis of proximal gastric cancer. Method Thirty-one patients with proximal gastric cancer underwent D_2 or D_3 operation, and lymph node were harvested from specimen. The number of lymph node dissection in proximal gastrectomy was compared with that in total gastrectomy. Results A total of 1971 lymph nodes were obtained from the 31 specimens, the mean was 63 per case. There were 57 lymph nodes per case for patients with proximal gastrectomy and 71 per case with total gastrectomy,64 per case with left half pancreaticosplenectomy and 63 per case with splenectomy. According to the new 5th N stage system, the 5 year survival of N_1,N_2,N_3 were 36%, 11%, and 0 respectively. Conclusion Along with the wide invasion of the carcinoma wide resection with extended lymph node dissection is mandatory, reserved left half of the pancreas has no influence on the number of harvested lymphnode, the new quantitative N staging is superior to the old in predicting the prognosis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the imaging characteristics of solitary fibrous tumor(SFT).MethodsThis study included 11 cases with SFT proved by pathological results.The imaging manifestations were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed in comparison with surgical and pathological results. Among them,8 patients underwent CT plain scan (1/8) or enhanced scan (7/8),4 patients underwent MR plain scan (2/4) or enhanced scan (2/4),and only 1 patient underwent both CT and MR scan.Results( 1 )SFT were located in the thoracic cavity(2/11 ),abdominal and pelvis(5/11 ),and somatic soft tissues (4/11 ).The average tumor size was 11.8 cm ( 2.5 to 23.0 cm).Among them,4 tumors were round or ellipse,and 7 tumors were irregular.Eight tumors had well-defined contours,and the others showed illdefined contours.(2)On CT scan,all SFTs showed inhomogeneous density with low density areas.Calcification was seen in I case,and hemorrhagic foci were detected in 2 cases.(3)On MR scan,all SFTs showed intermediate signal intensity on T1 WI.Three tumors were slightly hyperintense and the other was hypointense on T2WI.All of them were rich of vascular signal voids.Three tumors,including 2 tumors with scattered long T1 and T2 signal and 1 tumor in the liver with hyperintense haemorrhage,displayed inhomogeneous mixed signal.One tumor in the orbit showed homogeneous signal.(4)On enhanced scan,9 tumors showed irregular enhancement with multiple circuitous vessels in the arterial phase,and continuous or progressive enhancement with patch non-enhanced areas in the venous phase.( 5 ) Histologically,SFTs were composed of juxtaposed hyper- and hypo-cellular spindle cells,dense collagenous stromas and numerous thin-walled blood vessels with a staghorn configuration.Conclusion The possibility of SFT should be considered when a single soft tissue mass with sharp border,inhomogeneous density is detected,especially with inhomogeneous enhancement maintaining in the venous phase.

This study demonstrates that nerve growth factor (NGF) plays a protective role in myocardial infarction and early reperfusion by reducing the myocardial cell apoptosis and by improving ventricular remodeling and seeks to assess the effects and mechanisms of NGF on late reperfusion after myocardial infarction. The models of late reperfusion were established by ligating the left main coronary artery and then cutting the suture 2 hours after coronary artery ligation. The rats in NGF treatment group were injected 10 µL Ad-NGF (by constructing the adenovirus vector Ad-NGF containing NGF gene) at four locations around infarction. The rats in adenoviral vector (Adv) group were injected 10 µL adenoviral cector as the NGF group. The late reperfusion group and the sham group were given normal saline as above, and the sham group underwent thracotomy without coronary ligation. On the 3rd, 7th, 14th and 28th day after operation, we investigated the role of NGF on late reperfusion by recording cardiac structure and function with echocardiography, by examining the expression of NGF and VIII factor with immunohistochemical method, and by evaluating the myocardial cell apoptosis with terminal dUTP nick end-labeling method (TUNEL). We found that the NGF group had higher expression of NGF protein (P < 0.01) and lower apoptosis index (AI) (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05) compared to the late reperfusion group and Adv group on all time points. The NGF group had remarkably higher level of neovascularization compared to the late reperfusion group on the 14th day (P < 0.01) and the 28th day (P < 0.05). The NGF group also had higher LVEF and FS levels compared to the late reperfusion group on the 14th day (P = 0.006, P = 0.006) and on the 28th day (P = 0.000, P = 0.000). Whereas the NGF group had lower LVEDD, LVESD (P = 0.038, P = 0.000) and lower LVEDV, LVESV (P = 0.001, P = 0.000) on the 28th day compared to late reperfusion group. In this experiment, the NGF gene carried by adenovirus vector had been transfected and obviously increased the expression of NGF protein in NGF group. NGF may help postpone the myocardial remodeling and improve the heart function by promoting the myocardial neovascularization and inhibiting myocardial apoptosis.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the epidemic situation of vertical dissemination of the Escherichia coli(ECO) and Klebsiella pneumoniae(KPN) isolates producing extended-spectrum beta-lactamases in the hospital.METHODS The fingerprints of the isolates were obtained by pulsed-field-gel-electrophoresis(PFGE),and were analyzed with software Quantity One.RESULTS The similarity of 10 isolates and 7 isolates among the 21 ECO(isolates) from ICU was more than 90%,and 100%,respectively;the similarity of 3 KPN isolates was 100%.The similarity of 9 isolates among the 20 ECO(isolates) was more than 90% and the similarity of 4 isolates among the 6 KPN isolates was more than 90% in the neurosurgery ward.The similar coefficients of 3 isolates and 2(isolates)(among) the 10 ECO isolates from the ward for cadre were more than 90% and 100%,(respectively.) The similar(coefficients) of 2 isolates among the 7 ECO isolates from the gastroenterology ward and 2(isolates)(among) the 18 ECO isolates from the respiratory ward were more than 90%.The isolates whose similarity was more than 90% were also found in other wards.CONCLUSIONS There are vertical disseminations of single clone of ESBL-producing organisms in several wards,especially in the ICU.It is necessary to strengthen the management of(infection)-control.
