Three hundred cases of E type viral hepatitis were observed with 100 cases of A type as control. We held that the etiology and pathogenesisof E and A types of viral hepatitis were wind, dampness, heat, poisons and stasis, each with its predominance; For A type, its predominant etiology being wind, heat and stasis, while that of E type, dampness, poisons and stasis. For their therapy, the principle of "similar treatment for different diseases " should, adopted. After treatment, ACT, TB, and a markedly decreased, signs and symptoms markedly improved, Epr, IgG also improved to different extents, the cured rate ( rate of negative virus exam) being 80% and 78% for A type and E type respectively. The effect was especially good for simple infection, and rather poor for mixed infection type.

As the patient of hepatitis B and E overlapping infection of liver and gallbladder damp - heat type compared with the patient of simple hepatitis E of liver and gallbladder damp-heat type, attack was very rapid, jaundice exacerbated progressively and hepatic function damaged severely. Aftertreatment the state of illness restored more slowly and the duration of illness was obviously prolonged. At the same time, it was found that the biochemical indexes (hyaluronic acid, total bile acid) increased significantly at acute stage, and the indexes in the patient of overlapping infection in the time for recovering normality at restoration stage was longer than that in the patient of simple hepatitis E, with a significantly difference between the two groups. It is indicated that lesion of the liver in the patient of overlapping infection of hepatitis B and E was more severe than the simple hepatitis E, with no good prognosis.

Objective To investigate cancer suppressor Genes p16, p15 in the brain gliomas expression and its relations with the gliomas pathology graduation and the malignant degree.Methods P16 and P15 protein expression level in human brain gliomas from 63 surgery specimens were assayed by immunobistochemical S-P method.Results P16, the P15 protein expression rate the brain gliomas pathology graduation assumes the inverse correlation with, also compared with the high malignant group the low malignant group (Ⅰ~Ⅱ level) (Ⅲ~Ⅳ level) has the remarkable difference (P

Objective To explore the expression of the Merlin protein in normal cervix and cervical can-cer of the Han,Tibetan and Hui nationalities in Qinghai. Methods Immunohisto-chemical staining was per-formed to detect the expression of Merlin in 108 cases of cervical carcinoma(40 cases of Han,38 cases of Tibetan and 30 cases of Hui nationality)and 107 cases of normal cervix(40 cases of Han,37 cases of Tibetan and 30 cas-es of Hui nationality). Results The positive expression rates of Merlin in normal cervix were 90.0%,91.9%and 86.7%respectively and those in cervical carcinoma were 17.5%,18.4%and 16.7%respectively. There was signifi-cantly statistical difference(P<0.05). However,there was no significant difference in the positive rates of Merlin between cervical carcinoma among different ethnic groups(P>0.05). The expression of Merlin was not correlated with age,FIGO stage,lymph metastasis and cell differentiation(P > 0.05)in cervical carcinoma of three ethnic groups. Conclusion The decrease or even deletion of Merlin may be involved in the development of cervical can-cer,and it plays an important role in cervical cancer. The expression of Merlin exerts no effect on the occurrence of cervical cancer and it is not associated with the clinical characteristics of the patients ,suggesting that it may not be involved in the invasion and metastasis of cervical cancer.

Objective To retrospectively analyze computerized tomography (CT) imaging features of colorectal cancer with chronic schistosomiasis in order to improve the diagnostic accuracy.Methods Eighty patients whose diagnosis was pathologically confirmed as colorectal cancer with schistosomiasis were collected from Tongji Hospital and Kunshan Chinese Medicine Hospital from January 2007 to December 2012.All the patients underwent abdominal plain CT and contrast-enhanced CT scan.The lesion location,morphology,size,calcification features,enhancement patterns and cancer metastasis were evaluated and compared by two radiologists who were blind to the diagnosis.Twenty colorectal cancer cases without schistosomiasis from the same area were also collected as controls.Results CT imaging showed that the tumors all occurred in the colon and rectum in 80 patients,mainly in colon descendens,colon sigmoideum and rectum.The lesion was characterized by irregular bowel wall thickening with soft tissue masses,and the average length of impaired intestine was (21.35 ± 4.50) cm.The lesions were solitary in 68 cases (85.0％) and were multifocal in 12 cases (15.0％).Linear,spotty and small patchy calcifications were seen in all the patients,with margins unclear in 59 patients (73.8％) and margins clear in 21 patients (26.2％).Early phase enhancement was seen in 68 cases (85.0％),of which 45 cases (56.2％) had homogenous enhancement and 23 cases (28.8％) had heterogeneous enhancement.Late phase enhancement was seen in 73 cases (91.2％) and necrosis was hardly seen.Only two cases (2.5％) had liver metastasis without lymphatic metastasis.All the 20 colorectal cancer cases without schistosomiasis presented with single lesion,which was characterized by irregular bowel wall thickening and local ulcer.The average length of impaired intestine was (6.90±3.40) cm.No calcification was seen in these lesions.All cases had early phase lesion with remarkable heterogeneous enhancement with low density necrotic area.The late phase enhancement was decreased.Four cases (20.0％) had liver metastasis.Compared to cases without schistosomiasis,cases with schistosomiasis tended to have multifocal (x2=100,P=0.000) and longer lesion (t=45.506,P=0.000),and more calcification (x2=100,P=0.000).The early phase heterogeneous enhancement was less frequent (x2 =88,P=0.000) and late phase enhancement was more frequent (x2=100,P=0.000).The liver metastasis rate was significantly lower (x2 =8.688,P =0.014).Conclusions The CT imaging of colorectal cancer with schistosomiasis is characterized by calcifications inside the tumor with obscured margins and multiple intestinal segments involvement.Hematogenous metastasis and lymphatic metastasis are rarely seen.

Objective To evaluate the correlation of ADC values on 3.0 T MR with the pathological grades in pT1b clear cell renal cell carcinoma(CCRCC).Methods Conventional MR images,ADC values and Fuhrman pathological grading of pT1b CCRCC were performed in 30 patients.Grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ were defined as low-grade group; grade Ⅲ and IV were defined as high-grade group.The differences of ADC values among four different pathologic grades were compared with a one-way analysis of variance. The comparison of ADC values of two different grade groups was performed with t test,and the ROC curve was performed to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of ADC value. Correlation between pathological gradings and ADC values was assessed with Spearman rank correlation analysis. Results ( 1 ) The mean ADC value of grading Ⅰ ( 10 patients ), Ⅱ ( 8 patients ),Ⅲ ( 7 patients ),IV ( 5 patients ) was ( 0.94 ± 0.11 ) ×10-3 mm2/s,(0.82 ±0.13) × 10-3 mm2/s,(0.68 ±0.09) × 10-3 mm2/s,(0.59 ±0.03) × 10-3 mm2/s,respectively.Significant differences of ADC values among the four grades were present (F =16.422,P =0.000 ).( 2 ) The mean ADC value of the low-grade group was significantly higher than that of the high-grade group(t =5.738,P =0.000).Sensitivity and specificity of diagnosing the low-grade group was 88.9％ and 83.3％ respectively.There was a negative correlation between pathological grading and ADC value ( r =-0.807,P ＜ 0.05). Conclusions The ADC values of pT1b CCRCC have close correlation with pathological gradings.They can be used to predict the degree of tumor malignancy preoperatively and guide surgical planning.

Objective To analyze the characteristics, surgical timing and treatment of middle super thoracic fractures. Methods 35 cases of middle super thoracic fractures (T1 10) were retrospectively reviewed. Among them, 25 cases were complete injury of the spinal cord and 10 cases were neurologically incomplete injury. The bleeding in operations at different times, the ASIA grades and the sensorimotor scores were analyzed. Results The follow up showed that the ASIA grade increased by 1 to 2 degrees in 10 cases of incomplete spinal cord injury, while in complete spinal cord injury the ASIA grades hardly increased but the sense and motion scores could be improved by about 20. Conclusions Middle super thoracic fractures often involve multi vertebra body, and the spinal cord is injured severely. Decompression, fusion, internal fixation from posterior approach can obtain a satisfactory result. Neurologically incomplete injury should be treated as soon as possible, while complete injury of the spinal cord should be treated around 2 weeks after the injury.

The bioreactor production of recombinant Lateolabrax japonicus growth hormone (rljGH) expressed intracellularly by Pichia pastoris was investigated. A strategy of feeding methanol at the exponential rate was established and the effect of specific growth rate on the rljGH production was examined. The results indicated that the average specific production rate increased and the rljGH production duration decreased as the specific growth rate increased. The maximum specific rljGH production (0.58 mg/g WCW) was achieved at a specific growth rate of 0.029/h. The effect of supplementing ammonium sulfate, peptone and yeast ex- tract on the rljGH production was further investigated. The results indicated that the effects of ammonium sulfate and peptone were not significant. Supplementing yeast extract of 2.5 g/L was advantageous for the rljGH production. The duration of the rljGH production was increased to 23 h from 17 h and the fermenta- tion stability of run-to-run could be improved.
