Objective To observe the changes in cytokines, oxygen free radicals, acidulous production in serum and to investigate the effectiveness of monitoring metabolism of cells and the method for evaluating cell injury in patients with severe trauma. Method The detailed data of 117 patients rescued and managed carefully from May 2005 to February 2007 were assessed and stratified with ISS and APACHE Ⅱ , and the serum levels of arterial blood lactate(ABL) ,base deficit(BD) ,superoxide(SOD) ,lipid peroxide(LPO) ,TNF-α and IL-6 were measured in real-time according to the condition of the patient. Results The monitoring biomarkers obviously changed with injury severity which endangered the situation of patients after trauma (P < 0.05) , especially in the patients with ischemia , hypoxia, shock, iniection, SIRS, and MODS (P < 0.01). The persistence of extremely elevated levels of biomarkers meant the organ failure and fatality of patients after trauma, and there was a obvious differece between those cases and cases without elevation of biomarkers ( P < 0.01). Conclusions The outcome of patients after trauma is closely correlated with injury severity,infection and MODS,and the levels of biomarkers including ABL, SOD, IPO, TNF-a and IL-6 are useful indicators of outcome measure.

Objective To investigate the pile protein (paxillin) and carbonic anhydrases Ⅸ (CA Ⅸ)expression and its significance in duodenal papilla carcinoma patients.Methods Eighty-seven cases of duodenal papilla carcinoma were enrolled as our subject.Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expressions of paxillin and CAⅨ in site of tumor,adjacent tissue and duodenal papillitis tissue.Results Sixtyfive cases (74.7％ (65/87)) were showed a higher expression of paxillin in cancer site than that of adjacent tissue (41％ (16/39),P ＜ 0.05) and duodenal papillitis tissue (41.3％ (19/46),P ＜ 0.05),and the difference was statisically significant (x2 =19.869,P ＜0.05).While a higher expression of CA Ⅸ in 62 cases (71.3％) in cancer site was seen,higher than that of adjacent tissue (33.3％ (13/39),P ＜ 0.05) and duodenal papillitis tissue (30.4％ (14/46),P ＜ 0.05),and the difference was statisically significant (x2 =26.936,P ＜ 0.05).As the increase of the cancer tissue malignant degree and the surrounding tissue invasion or distant metastasis degree,paxillin and CA Ⅸ expression increased.Conclusion The paxillin and CAⅨ might served as the early indicators for diagnosis and judgment of prognosis of duodenal papilla cancer.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the exon 4 gene polymorphism of TIM-1 and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Han population from Hubei province.Methods Polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the ins/del polymorphism of the exon 4 of TIM-1 from RA population and the normal con- trols.Rheumatoid factor (RF),anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) antibody and anti-keratin antibody (AKA) were also detected.Results Two alleles,a wild type del and a variant allele ins were identified in the TIM-1 exon 4.The genotype frequencies of del/del,ins/del and ins/ins were 0.650,0.280 and 0.070 respec- tively in the normal controls and 0.616,0.302,0.082 respectively in RA population.There was a significant correlation between the positive ratio of AKA and the genotypes of the exon 4.Conclusion The polymorphism of the exon 4 of TIM-1 is not associated with rheumatoid arthritis in Han population from Hubei Province of China.The genotypes of the exon 4 may have an effect on the expression of AKA.

ObjectiveTo find out the electroencephalogram(EEG)change of the children with language retardation.MethodsThe EEG change and prognosis of 78 cases of language retardation children were analysed and compared with normal ones.ResultsThe EEG abnormal rate of language retardation was 69.3%,while that of the normal children was 10%(P<0.001).Conclusions The EEG is helpful to understand the developmental status of brain functions.

Objective To analyze the spectrum of underlying diseases in children with transient loss of consciousness (TLOC) through a multi-center and large sample clinical research.Methods Nine hundred and thirty-seven children with TLOC who came from Beijing,Hunan province,Hubei province and Shanghai of China from Aug 1999 to Apr 2011 were recruited in the present study,and then the spectrum of underlying diseases in children with TLOC was analyzed.Results In 937 children with TLOC,903 cases (96.4％ )were children with syncope,34 cases (3.6％) were non-syncope.And in 903 children with syncope,213 cases (23.6％) had vasovagal syncope (VVS) with vasoinhibitory response,46 cases (5.1％ ) had VVS with cardioinhibitory response,112 cases ( 12.4％ ) had VVS with mixed response,268 cases (29.7％ ) had postural tachycardia syndrome,22 cases (2.4％) had orthostatic hypotension,19 cases (2.1％ ) had situational syncope,21 cases (2.3％ ) had cardiogenic syncope,and 202 cases (22.4％ ) had unexplained syncope.Conclusion In children with TLOC,syncope was the most common underlying disease.And in children with syncope,the most common was VVS,followed by postural tachycardia syndrome.In three different hemodynamic patterns of VVS,the most common pattern was VVS vasoinhibitory pattern.

Untargeted metabolomics analysis of rhubarb and stewed rhubarb samples shows that the determined samples clearly clustered in to two groups, indicating that the processing procedures caused changes in the composition and/or content of components in rhubarb. Ten components were identified by UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS and references, which intensity declined in rhubarb after processing. Targeted metabolomics analysis of rhubarb and stewed rhubarb samples indicated that aloe-emodin, rhein, emodin and physcion were detected with lower intensity in stewed rhubarb samples than in rhubarb samples. Metabolomics analysis of rhubarb and stewed rhubarb indicated the various components of rhubarb changed after processing.

Hydrolytic amino acids were extracted by acid hydrolysis method, then derivatized with phenyl isothiocyanate (PITC). And the samples were analysed by HPLC on an Ultimate Prime C18 (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm) column with gradient elution of 0.1 mol x L(-1) sodium acetate buffer solution (adjusted to pH 6. 5)-acetonitrile (93:7) (A) and acetonitrile-water (8:2) (B) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL x min(-1). Column temperature was 40 degrees C and the detected wavelength was 254 nm. Amino acids derivative solution remained stable in 36 hours. The response was linear for 16 amino acids with a correlation coefficient r > 0.999 5. The average recoveries were 98.01% -101.8%. The method is reliable with good accuracy and repeatability, which is useful for the determination of amino acids in Galli Gigerii Endothelium Corneum.

Objective To explore the rationality of pancreaticojejunostomy and double purse embedded pancreaticogastrostomy in pancreaticoduodenectomy through comparing the short-term effects between pancreaticojejunostomy and double purse embedded pancreaticogastrostomy in pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods A retrospective review was performed for 38 patients who were underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at the second affiliated hospital of Kunming Medical University from January 2010 to December 2012.Results All 38 pancreaticoduodenectomy were performed successfully.The pancreatic fistula (0％),operationtime [(327.50±32.56) min],postoperative hospital days [(10.31 ±2.44) d] were found to be significantly lower in double purse embedded pancreaticogastrostomy group than those of pancreaticojejunostomy group [3/12,(425.83 ± 33.77) min,(14.33 ± 4.14) d],which has statistical significance(P＜0.05).Although the incidence of bile leakage,postoperative abdominal bleeding,delayed gastric emptying,infection of incision,infection of lung,intraoperative amount of bleeding are also lower than that of pancreaticojejunostomy group,which has no statistical significance.Conclusions Double purse embedded pancreaticogastrostomy is a digestive tract reconstruction which is safer and more reasonable than pancreaticojejunostomy.The former one is operated simply and the operation time is shorter.There are great advantages in the prevention of complications such as pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
