Sexual behavior of HIV-positive men who have sex with men (MSM) are different from the general MSM. HIV-positive men who know their HIV status are more likely to have sex with positive partner and to engage in receptive anal intercourse as a self harm reduction approach than the general MSM. It is important to strengthen behavioral interventions so as to practice safe sexual behavior to prevent HIV transmission and maintain high life quality among HIV-positive MSM.

Objective To explore the surgical management and its results of intercondylar fracture of humerus through approach of extra-articular oblique osteotomy of olecranon. Methods From March 1995 to October 2003, 26 patients of intercondylar fracture of humerus were treated surgically through approach of extra-articular oblique osteotomy of olecranon, and the fracture was reduced and fixed with "8" steel wire. The patients were 15 men and 11 women with a mean age of 43.2 years (range 19-68 years). 14 fractures occurred on the left extremity and 12 on the right. The fractures resulted from traffic accident or fall in 23 and other trauma in 3. According to AO/ASIF classifation, type C1 fracture was found in 3, C2 in 5 and C3 in 18. 5 patients suffered open fracture(Custilo scaleⅠin 3, and Ⅱ in 2). Contusion of skin occurred in 3 and multiple injuries in 5, while primary injury of ulnar nerve occurred in 4. The rehabilitation exercises began at 2-7 d post-operatively. The healing of the osteotomy was evaluated with physical examination and plain X-ray film, and the function of elbow was assessed according to Cassebaum scale. Results 21 patients were followed from 9 months to 8 years(average, 18 months). Of these 21 cases, all the osteotomies healed in 6.2 weeks averagely, no nonunion, delayed union, separation or malunion was found. Heterotopic ossification occurred in 4 cases, and obviously limited locomotion of elbow in 2. Of the 4 patients with primary injury of ulnar nerve, no breaking was found during exploration, and the nerve was displaced anteriorly. 3 of these 4 patients recovered completely, and mild sensory disturbance and dyskinesis remained in 1. The function of the elbow showed excellent in 12, good in 6, fair in 1 and poor in 2. The locomotion of the elbow averaged 110?. Conclusion The use of the approach of extra-articular oblique osteotomy of olecranon for surgical management of intercondylar fracture of humerus has many advantages, it provides satisfactory stability with simple technical procedure avoiding intra-articular invasion, it facilitates rehabilitation exercises and provides good results with low complication rate.

Objective To investigate the efficiency and safety of the automated external defibrillator (AED); and to compare the defibrillating efficacy between the domestic AED and the imported AED. Method Fourteen Peking white swine weighed (30 ± 1 ) kg, were anaesthetized and arterial cannula was inserted into the left femoral artery for collecting blood samples and measuring artery blood pressure, cardiac output (CO) and external vascular lung water index (EVWI) by using PiCCO monitor, and another cannula was inserted into the left femoral vein to place an electrode as a temporary pace maker, and then ventricular fibrillation (VF) was induced by using a programmed electrical stimulation instrument. The swine were divided into two groups randomly ( random number) after VF was confirmed by electrocardio-monitor,and the domestic made AED (M group, n = 7) or imported AED (Z group, n = 7) were used respectively in 7 swine of each group. The electrodes of defibrillator were stuck to the precordium and sternum separately, and defibrillation was delivered by the AED signal. The entire procedure of defibrillation was repeated four times. The number of defibrillation delivery required to get normal cardiac rhythm was recorded. Twenty minutes after restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), blood sample was taken to measure myocardial enzyme. The CO and EVWI were measured too. Measurement data was analyzed by repeated ANOVA and enumeration data was analyzed by Chi-square test. A value of P ＜0.05 was regarded as being significant statistical difference. Results There were 54 episodes of VF induced in 14 swine and only one swine in Z group was dead after 2nd episode of VF, resulting in 98.1% success rate of resuscitation. There were 37 defibrillation deliveries given to swine of M group, and 75.0% produced normal cardiac rhythm after the first delivery of defibrillation,whereas 80.0% in Z group after 32 defibrillation deliveries. The length of time from AED turned on to the recognition of ECG signal of VF was (29 ± 1 ) s. There were 2 occasions in both groups that the AEDs failed to recognize the VF signal emerged on ECG after the first induction of VF by electrical shock. Similarly, there were 2 occasions in Z group that the AED incorrectly recognized the signal of ventricular tachycardia as that of VF, but no harm was done after defibrillation delivery given following the signal of AED. During the entire course of experiment, heart rate,blood pressure and CO of all survived swine were stable,but the EVWI and myoglobin (MYO) gradually increased as time elapsed until the 3rd or 4th episode of VF leading to significant differences from the original ones. There were no significant differences in all biomarkers between two groups. Conclusions The VF can be ceased by AED safely and efficiently. There are no significant differences in signal recognition, efficacy of defibrillation and myocardial injury found between the domestic made AED and imported AED; but AED may not be good to be recommended to the professional staff of resuscitation because of its incorrect reorganization of ECG owing to over-automation.

OBJECTIVE To culture dendritic cells from the peripheral blood ofpatients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS Peripheral blood was collected from patients under sterile conditions. The mononuclear cells were separated by centrifugation through a density gradient (Ficoll-Hypaque). The adhesion cells, collected from the mononuclear cells, were cultured with interleukin-4 (IL-4, 100ng),granulocyte/macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF, 100ng) and tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF-?, 100ng) in RPMI 1640 medium for 7 days. The cell morphology was observed under electronic microscope, and the characteristic surface marker CD80 of the cells was analyzed by flow cytometry. MTT colorimetry was employed to assess the proliferation of the mixed lymphocytes. The mixed lymphocytes were stimulated by DC loaded with laryngeal carcinoma antigen. RESULTS A large quantity of cells characteristic of dendritic cell was obtained. Cytometry analysis showed that 33.76 % of mononuclear cells expressed the characteristic marker CD80. After being cultured for 7 days, the expression level of CD80 was significantly increased (69.15 %). Few DC with laryngeal carcinoma antigen could play a role in stimulating lymphocyte proliferation, and the proliferation effect was optimized when the ratio between DC and T cells was 1:5. CONCLUSION A large number of DCs with high purityand sufficient treatment dose can be cultured in vitro from the peripheral blood of patients with laryngeal carcinoma. This technique may play an important role in experimental studies for clinical applications.

Objective To determine the main CT features and the key points of differential diagnosis of multilocular cystic renal cell carcinoma (MCRCC) classified according to 2004 WHO pathological diagnostic criteria. Methods According to the criteria, 40 patients were divided into two groups: MCRCC group and other subtypes of cystic renal cell carcinoma (CRCC). The CT findings were evaluated and compared between two groups for cystic content, wall, septum, nodularity, calcification and enhancement. ROC curve was used to determine the cut-off value of the possible CT feature which could distinguish MCRCC from other subtypes of CRCC. Results Seventeen cases of MCRCC group and 23 cases of CRCC group were included in this study according to the diagnostic criteria. MCRCC appeared as a well defined multilocular cystic mass with thin wall and sepia and no expansile solid nodules. Thickness of cystic wall and/or septum is was main CT findings to distinguish MCRCC from other subtypes of CRCC (P ＜ 0.01 ). The cut-off value of the thickness was 6 mm and its sensibility, specificity was 89% ,75% respectively. Conclusion Cystic wall and/or septum with a thickness of less than 6 mm are the main CT findings to dis tinguish MCRCC from other subtypes of CRCC.

Objective To analyze the efficacy and safety of erlotinib associated conformal intensity modulated radiotherapy in treatment (IMRT) of locally advanced pancreatic carcinoma. Methods The clinical data of 23 patients with locally advanced pancreatic carcinoma were retrospectively analyzed. The patients′ therapeutic methods: erlotinib was taken continuously and orally at 100 mg/time, 1 time/d until disease progressed or serious adverse reactions happened; intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) was used combined with erlotinib at 50.4 Gy, 1 time/d, 1.8 Gy/time, 5 times/week, total 28 times. Tumor response was evaluated at the end of radiotherapy after 4 weeks. Results In 23 patients, there was partial response in 10 cases, stable disease in 9 cases and progress disease in 4 cases. The objective response rate was 43.5%(10/23), and the median survival time was 11.3 months. Adverse reactions included fatigue, rash, bone marrow suppression, nausea and diarrhea. The adverse reactions were mostly tolerable with grade 1-2. Conclusions Erlotinib combined with IMRT is safe and effective in patients with locally advanced pancreatic carcinoma, which is worthy of further study.

Objective To study the clinical significance of a novel marker of platelet clumps count provided by hematology analyzer in differentiating true thrombocytopenia from EDTA-dependent pseudothrombocytopenia (EDTA-PTCP). Methods Samples from 65 cases of thrombocytopenia (including 15 EDTA-PCTP samples and 50 random samples of true thrombocytopenia) and 50 healthy controls were analyzed using hematology analyzers, and samples with low platelet counts were checked by replacing citric acid and using manual microscope observation to identify true thrombocytopenia from EDTA-PTCP. A novel marker of platelet clumps count was used to differentiate the two diseases for samples anficoagulated with EDTA or citric acid. Results In 65 patients with thrombocytopenia, platelet counts were (48±11)×109/L detected by automatic hematology analyzers. Fifty of 65 cases were true thrombocytopenia which showed low platelet counts [(48±10)×109/L by automated analyzer and (46±11)×109/L by manual assay]. No significance was observed between them (t=-1.26, P0.05). Platelet clumps counts were 86±15. No platelet clamps were detected under microscope. The other 15 cases were EDTA-PTCP [platelet counts were (48±12)×109/L and platelet clumps counts (840±184) were increased significantly by automated analyzer and using EDTA anticoagulant] which showed obviously platelet clumps and no less platelet counts under microscope. After replacing citric acid, platelet counts [(141±13)×109/L by automated analyzer and (134±17)×109/L by manual microscope assay] were increased significantly. No significance was observed between them (t=-1.29, P0.05). Platelet clumps counts (75±12) were decreased obviously compared with EDTA anticoagulant method (t=-6.82, P<0.001). No platelet clumps were detected under microscope. Conclusion Platelet clumps counts may be a useful clinical indicator for monitoring of platelet aggregates, especially for EDTA-PTCP caused by platelet clumping.

Objective Gasp was defined as a pathology respiration during cardiac arrest. This study was to investigate its effect on hemodynamics during CPR. Method Twelve domestic pigs, weighening (30 ± 1) kg,were anaesthetized. After tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation, continuous respiratory variables were recorded. An artery catheter was inserted for reference blood samples and measuring aortic artery pressure (AOP).Right atrial pressure (RAP) and cardiac output (CO) were detected by Swan-Ganz catheter. Ventricular fibrillation (VF) was induced by programmed electrical stimulation instruments. After 4 minutes untreated VF, standard 30:2 CPR was done for 12 minutes and the parameters were recorded. Results pH, PaCO2 and lactic acid increased and PaO2 decreased progressively during CPR, whereas PaO2 was up to 50mmHg during the whole protocol. Gasps were observed in 10 animals, but weaken gradually; the left 2 animals with no gasp did not restore of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Standard CPR could produce passive ventilation more than dead space (VD), but its tidal volume decreased gradually, which led to the percentage of rescue ventilation increased progressively. Positive correlations were found between CO, coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) and minute ventilation of gasps (MVg) (r was 0.736 and 0.721 respectively, both P ＜0.01); negative correlation were found between RAP and MVg (r= -0. 744, P ＜ 0.01). Conclusions Standard CPR could maintain 12 minutes oxygenation of body; compressions could produce enough passive ventilation more than VD; gasps were benefit to ROSC by increasing CO, CPP and decreasing RAP.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for colorectal cancer adjuvant chemotherapy induced leucopenia. Methods The basic clinical data of 108 patients with colorectal cancer who had received radical operation and adjuvant chemotherapy were retrospectively evaluated. The patients were divided into two groups: normal white blood cell group (39 patients) and leucopenia group (69 patients). The data were analyzed with SPSS 22.0 software, t test, χ2 test , univariate analysis and multifactor Logistic regression analysis, and analysis of variance to investigate the risk factors for colorectal cancer adjuvant chemotherapy induced leucopenia. Results Univariate analysis revealed that the female patients and the ones who received radiotherapy were more prone to leucopenia (P<0.01), while hypertension, the levels of white blood cell, neutrophil counting and serum creatinine before chemotherapy were protective factors for leucopenia (P<0.05 or<0.01). Multifactor Logistic regression analysis revealed that the level of serum creatinine before chemotherapy was an independent risk factor for leucopenia, OR = 0.950 (95% CI: 0.906- 0.996, P<0.05). The further analysis showed the lower the level of serum creatinine, the more severe the leucopenia would be (P = 0.04). Conclusions The level of serum creatinine before chemotherapy was an independent risk factor for colorectal cancer adjuvant chemotherapy induced leucopenia.
