Objective To investigate the cause of refractory hiccups. Method 34 patients with refractory hiccups admitted to our hospital from January 1996 to December 2003 were examined with gastroscopy. The correlation of hiccups with reflux esophagitis and the efficacy of omeprazole treatment were studied. Results 10 patients were proven endoscopically to have esophagitis and duodenal ulcer, and the other 24 were suffering from esophagitis. According to Tokyo classification, 14 cases were having grade III esophagitis, and 20 were grade IV. All patients received omeprazole 20mg twice daily and cisapride 10mg thrice daily, and hiccups disappeared after 3 days. Conclusion Refractory hiccups may be the initial or primary symptom in moderate-severe esophagitis in aged people. Proton pump inhibitor therapy is effective in stopping refractory hiccup.

The recombinant plasmid pPIC-gpd-bgl-hyg was constructed, which contained GPD2 promotor and terminator from industrial yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae, ?-glucosidase gene (BGL1) from Sac-charomycopsis fibuligera and hyg from hygromycin as the selected marker. With the yeast’s high efficiency of homologous integrated, the BGL1 gene was successfully integrated into industrial yeasts S. cerevisiae. The recombined yeast could grow on the cultures with the cellobiose as a sole carbon source, and the ?-glucosidase activity achieved 0.764 U/mL after 48 hours’ cultivation. In the experiments of VHG ethanol fermentation, the cellobiose concentration in broth of recombined yeast was 80% lower than that of indus-trial yeast.

Glycerol is the main byproduct in ethanol production by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In order to improve ethanol yield and the substrate conversion, a cassette about 4.5 kb for gene homologous recombination, gpd2Δ::PGK1(PT)-POS5-HyBR, was constructed and transformed into the haploid strain S. cerevisiae S1 (MATa) to replace the GPD2 gene by POS5 gene. The NADH kinase gene POS5 was successfully over expressed in the recombinant strain S. cerevisiae S3. Comparing with the parent strain, the recombinant strain S. cerevisiae S3 exhibited an 8% increase in ethanol production and a 33.64% decrease in glycerol production in the conical flask fermentation with an initiatory glucose concentration of 150 g/L. Overexpression of NADH kinase gene seems effective in reducing glycerol production and increasing ethanol yield.

Objective To analysis the progress in prevention and control of iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) in Dalian and to provide a scientific basis for further prevention and control of the disease.Methods From 2006 to 2010,5 or 9 townships were randomly sampled from each county in Dalian,4 villages were sampled from each selected townships and 15 or 8 households were sampled from each selected villages for collecting salt samples and salt iodine level was determined by direct titration method.Sixty daytime urine samples from pregnant women,breast feeding women,infants and young children were collected,respectively,every year to detect urinary iodine level.From 2007 to 2009,2 to 11 counties were sampled and from each selected county one school was sampled to collect 100 daytime urine samples of children aged 8-10 and iodine content was determined.From 2006 to 2009,2 to 5 counties were sampled,from each selected county 2 to 5 schools were sampled and 100 children aged 8 to 10 in each selected school were sampled to detect intelligence quotient level and the thyroid volume.Results From 2006 to 2010,16 012 copies of households' edible salt samples were monitored; the average iodine content was ranged 29.68-31.51 mg/kg,the rate of qualified iodized salt in household ranged from 97.24% to 98.42%.A total of 1398 copies of urine samples of pregnant women,486 breast feeding women,473 infants and 502 young children were monitored,and the median value of urinary iodine was 129.3-189.6,114.6-190.6,148.5-298.5 and 144.4-187.3 μg/L,respectively.A total of 1657 urine samples were monitored,1264 intelligence quotient level and 1197 thyroid volume of school-age children were determined,the median urinary iodine,thyroid goiter rate and intelligence quotient level was 217.9-266.7 μg/L,0-3.29% and 110.4-117.2 μg/L,respectively.Conclusions From 2006 to 2010,the city's households qualified iodized salt coverage rate has reached the national standard for elimination of iodine deficiency disorders.The iodine nutrition of key population and school-age children has reached adequate level,the thyroid goiter rate is less than 5%,and the level of intelligence quotient has increased every year.But the iodine nutrition of breast feeding women in 2009 and 2010,pregnant women in 2010 is inadequate,so iodine nutrition surveillance and health education in pregnant and breast feeding women need to be strengthened in the future.

Objective To evaluate imaging findings and treatment experience in central venous stenosis without a history of previous catheterization in hemodialysis patients. Methods Clinical data of 5 haemodialysis cases of central vein stenosis without a previous catheterization history in our hospital from July 2006 to July 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Results Patients were three women and two men aged 43 to 65 years with mean age(53±8)years and all had arm swelling as the main complaint.The vascular accesses were located at the wrist in all the patients.The mean duration of the vascular accesses from the time of creation was(33.6±35.4)months.Venography showed occlusion in 2 cases and stenosis in 3 cages of central vein including 1 case of stenosis in brachiocephalic vein.1 case of stenosis beth in branchiocephalic vein and subclavian vein,1 case of stenosis in two segments of subclavian vein.The stenosis of branchiocephalic vein was fixed anterior to the tracheal and CT showed the compression of the vein by the aorta.Symptoms were resolved by the treatment of PTA.subclavian vein-contralateral subclavian vein bypass and ligation of the access. Conclusions Central venous stenosis in haemodialysis patients without a history of catheterization may be due to the intimal hyperplasia of the compression site or valve which is accelerated by the high flow of vascular access.Venography is the first choice for the diagnosis and the current management of central venous stenosis is far from being effective for the long term.

Objective To investigate the difference in influerce of complicated diabetes on the prognosis of kidney transplantation.Methods Analyze the data of 507 times kidney transplantation and clinical tracing.Results Totally 507 patients with kidney function failure had received 539 times kidney transplantation,52 of whom were connected with diabetes[30 male,(51.4?7.1)age;22 female,(51.6?4.9)age],and 16 cases were pre-transplant,36 cases post-transplant.The other 455 cases were non-diabetes[293 male,(38.7?12.3)age;126 female,(43.5?10.1)age].The prevalence of diversified complications in the group with diabetes was all remarkably higher than the other group.There were 9 cases death in the group with diabetes,and 35 deaths in the other group after kidney transplantation;actually the mortality of diabetes group(17.3%,9/52)was 2.45 times as high as the group without diabetes(7.7%,35/455),especially in pre-transplant diabetes group.Another result was that there was no significant difference in the survival period of the dead patients in group with and without diabetes.Conclusion The possibility for the patients who,suffer from kidney function failure with diabetes to get Kidney transplantation postoperative complications is bigger compared with those without diabetes,and the prognosis is poor.To control diabetes more effectively before and after kidney transplantation perhaps can improve the prognosis of them.

Objective: To investigate the effect of urinastatin on the expression levels of NF-?B and TNF-? liver transplantation in patients. Methods: Thirty-six patients of late stage hepatic cirrhosis were randomly divided into two eaquel groups: the experiment group was administrated by urinastatin 300 000 U and saline 10 mL via venous injection during liver transplantation, the control group was administrated 10 mL saline by venous injection at the same time. The blood samples were harvestd at 1, 2, 4 and 6 h after the blood recovery of donated liver. The nuclear factor-?B (NF-?B) P65 relative level of blood was detected by Western blot analysis and the TNF-? level of blood was detected by double antibody Sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Serum ALT and AST were also measured. Results: The expression level of serum NF-?B p65, TNF-? in the experiment group were lower than those in the control group, and the difference was significant(P
