Objective To investigate the effect of transabdominal gastroesophageal stapling in management of variceal bleeding in portal hypertension with Hassabi operation and sum up our clinical experience.Methods Retrospective analysis of 48 cases with portal hypertension operated by transabdominal gastroesophageal stapling between May,1998 and Oct.2005.The elimination of oesophagus venous、the rebleeding rate、the operation mortality、the stricture and the fistula rate and the index that influences the liver function were maily observed.Results No case suffered rebleeding and hepatal encephalopathy during the hospitaligation of the patients.Esophageal varices disappeared or reduced in all cases.One case resulted from stricture and one case died of multiple organ failure.Conclusions Transabdominal extensive oesophagogastric devascularization combined with gastrooesophageal stapling is an effective and safe procedure for control of acute variceal haemorrhage with satisfactory short-term control,but the long-term effect needs to be long follow-up for the patients.

Objective To investigate the mRNA expression of secondary lymphoid tissue chemokine (SLC) in human gastric carcinoma. Method The study was designed to investigate semi-quantitatively the expression of SLC mRNA in gastric carcinoma and metastatic lymph nodes by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.Result The expression of SLC mRNA in the gastric cancer tissues was markedly reduced compared with that in adjacent noncancer tissues. The average tumor/normal (T/N) ratio determined by RT-PCR was 0.43?0.08 in 29 patients.Metastatic lymph node/normal ratio was 0.63?0.07.Negative lymph node/normal ratio was 1.19?0.11. As a control,the mean G3PDH T/N ratio was 1.16?0.06,there was no correlation between SLC mRNA expression and clinicopathological characteristics in gastric cancer.ConclusionSLC mRNA expression is suppressed in the gastric tumours. SLC may play an important role in the early stage of carcinogenesis.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have demonstrated that amblyopic patients have a variety of dysopsia compared with normal people.Engineered visual system could find amblyopia through detection of human visual system.OBJECTIVE:To screen sensitive indexes for amblyopia through visual function examination to establish a intemet-based amblyopia screening method.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:Randomized,blinded,and controlled experiment.The study was performed at Department of Optometry,People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from September to November 2008.PARTICIPANTS:A total of 80 volunteers undergoing visual examination in Department of Optometry,People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region were selected,aged 4-19 years.All people had no organic diseases of eyes.They were divided into normal group (n=40) and ambiyopic group (n=40) according to their corrected visual acuity (whether ＞ 4.9).METHODS:Using vision system,the various visual function indexes of each participant were examined.The data from single eye and both eyes were collected and analyzed using Fisher.The sensitive indexes were selected to establish identification function for amblyopia screening.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Age,visual noise,orientation identification and contour integration of participants were examined.RESULTS:Results showed that age,visual noise,orientation identification and contour integration were clinically significant indexes,and cross validation suggested that the identification correct rate was 92.5%.The discriminant function of amblyopia was Y1=1.175X1+0.786X2+0.928X3+1.061X4-0.225X5+2.547X6+1.313X7-18.651;the discdminant function of normal vision was Y2=1.369X1+ 1.728X2+1.779X3+1.549X4-1.912X5+2.665X6+0.387X7 26.640.CONCLUSION:Visual noise,orientation identification and contour integration in vision detection system could be used to screen amblyopia in children,in particular with assistance of internat.

We discussed the function of four pairs of genes in the toxin-antitoxin system of Mycobacterium tuberculosis,providing theoretical foundation and scientific basis for studying the transmission mechanism of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.Four pairs of genes which belong to VapBC family,including four VapC genes (Rv1720c,Rv2103c,Rv2494,Rv3408) and four VapB genes (Rv1721c,Rv2104c,Rv2493,Rv3407) were chosen.We constructed a serial of arabinose-induced hybrid plasmid system in Escherichia coli and a serial of acetamide-induced hybrid plasmid system in Mycobacterium smegmatis respectively,in order to observe the potential inhibition effect of VapC and the release inhibition of homologous VapB.Results showed that only one toxin gene(Rv2103c) showed the function of bacteriostasis in both E.coli and M.smegmatis and the homologous antitoxin gene(Rv2104c) could release the inhibition of growth.We built the inducible systems of VapBC family in both E.coli and M.smegmatis respectively and found only a pair of toxin and antitoxin genes(Rv2103c,Rv2104c) had the function of inhibition and release for the growth of bacteria.And two pairs of toxin genes(Rv1720c,Rv2494) did not have the function of inhibition for the growth of both E.coli and M.smegmatis.Whereas,another toxin gene VapC47(Rv3408) also did not have the bacteriostastic activity,only this result was not consistent with the existing literature.We speculated that the reason for this kind of difference may be the different inducible systems we used.Cause the other three results were consistent with all existing literature and the doubtful result also appeared in other reports,so our protocol could be confirmed as reliable,and we would use it to build inducible systems and make further functional identification of certain toxin and antitoxin genes that we are interested in.

Objective To investigate the sequence-dependent effects of gemcitabine plus erlotinib on the proliferation of human pancreatic carcinoma cells,BXPC-3 and PANC-1,and the possible mechanisms involved.Methods The expressions of mRNA and protein of endothelial growth factor receptor(EGFR)were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting respectively.MTT assay was used to examine the effects of gemcitabine(3?10-11-3?10-2mol/L)and erlotinib(10-8-10-4mol/L),respectively,on the proliferation of human pancreatic carcinoma cells,then the IC50 was calculated subsequently.The effects of gemcitabine(IC50)and erlotinib(10-5mol/L)either administered alone,simultaneously,or sequentially(with 72h or 24h interval)on the proliferation of cells with MTT assay.Cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry.Results Both mRNA and protein of EGFR were expressed in BXPC-3 and PANC-1 cells.Gemcitabine(3?10-10-3?10-2mol/L)and erlotinib(10-6-10-4mol/L)significantly inhibited the proliferation of BXPC-3 and PANC-1 cells in a time-and concentration-dependent manner.The effects of gemcitabine plus erlotinib on cell proliferation were sequence-dependent.The inhibitory effects on cell proliferation was enhanced when administered simultaneously(P=0.034;P=0.049)or erlotinib was administered 24h prior to gemcitabine(P=0.001;P=0.025)in comparison to that of each drug used alone.However,administration of erlotinib 24h after that of gemcitabine(P=0.499,P=0.824)exerted no additive effects on the cell proliferation when compared with the effect of gemcitabine used alone.No statistical difference existed in the inhibitory effects on cell proliferation between the simultaneous administration of both drugs and the gemcitabine administration following erlotinib(P=0.199,P=0.767).Erlotinib plus/or gemcitabine treatment resulted in the block of cell cycle of BXPC-3 cells at G1 phase.Conclusions Both gemcitabine and erlotinib can inhibit the proliferation of BXPC-3 and PANC-1 cells.The concurrent administration or sequential administration of gemcitabine following erlotinib exerts stronger additive effects on cell proliferation than when gemcitabine is used alone.However,the additive effects are not related to the influence of the both drugs on cell cycles.

Objective To understand the epidemiological distribution and epidemic situation of brucellosis cases in Zhejiang Province in 2003 - 2012. Methods Questionnaires of confirmed brucellosis cases, annual reports of prevention and control work of brucellosis in the cities and monitoring points were collected and analyzed in 2003 - 2012. Population distribution, regional distribution, infection sources and routes of infection, aetiology and clinical symptoms and signs of the brucellosis cases were analyzed descriptively. Results A total of 323 brucellosis cases were reported in 2003 - 2012, the average annual incidence rate was 0.070/one hundred thousand, the incidence rate in 2012(0.190/one hundred thousand) was high. There were 272 people of the 323 brucellosis cases were from occupational populations, accounting for 84.21%(272/323); people worked in buying, slaughtering and trafficking of livestock products were majority of the cases, accounting for 65.02%(210/323); and unoccupational population was accounting for 15.79%(51/323). Regional distribution of brucellosis was gradually spreading; the average incidence rate of Shaoxing City was the highest ( 0 . 226/one hundred thousand ) . Three hundred patients were infected by sheep, accounting for 92.88%(300/323), and only 7.12%(23/323) of the patients were infected by cattle. Two hundred and eighty-seven acute phase patients of brucellosis were checked by blood culture, and thirty-nine Brucella melitensis strains and two Brucella abortus strains were detected. The chronicity survey of 120 confirmed cases of brucellosis were conducted, chronicity rate was 3.33%(4/120). Conclusions Trends in the epidemic situation of brucellosis in Zhejiang Province has continued to spread. The main source of infection is sheep from the North. Occupational populations are major populations at risk. The key of prevention and control is to strengthen the active monitoring of occupation personnel , health education and behavior intervention.

Objective To determine the correlation between the expression of interleukin 8 (IL 8) and vascularity in human gastric carcinoma speciemens,and to provide a possible new clinical way for anti angiogenesis of tumor . Methods IL 8 mRNA expression was examined with reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT PCR).IL 8 protein secretion level and its specific expression were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The number of blood vessels in the gastric carcinoma was determined by antibody against factor Ⅷ associated antigen and immunohistochemical analysis. Results Most of the tumors (26/29,89.7%) and metastatic lymph nodes (17/20,85%) expressed IL 8 at higher levels than that in corresponding normal mucosa of resection end of stomach and negative metastatic lymph node.The expression of IL 8 protein and IL 8 mRNA were at the same level.The level of IL 8 mRNA in the gastric carcinoma tissue correlated strongly and positively with vascularization (P= 0.001).Conclusions There is a positive correlation between IL 8 mRNA expression and the vascularity of gastric carcinoma.IL 8 produced by tumor cells may up regulate the microvascularization in the gastric cancer, and enhance the growth,spreading and lymph node metastasis in human gastric carcinoma.So decreasing the IL 8 expression might inhibit the microvascularization,growth and metastasis of gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the cerebral protective effects of propofol and ketamine against ischemia-reperfusion injury induced by cardiac arrest in rats. Methods One hundred and twenty male SD rats weighing 180-250 g were randomly divided into four equal groups of 30 animals : group A served as control without cardiac arrest;group B was subjected to 10 minutes of cardiac arrest followed by resuscitation ( C-R); group C received propofol 10 mg 100 ?g-1 ip 10 min before C-R; group D received ketamine 10 mg-100? g-1 ip 10 min before C-R. The animals were anesthetized with isoflurane inhalation by mask, intubated and mechanically ventilated. Anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane inhalation. Cardiac arrest was induced by asphyxiation (vecuronium 0.01 mg - 100 g -1, disconnection of ventilator, tracheal tube clamping) and maintained for 10 min, then resuscitated. Seven animals in each group were killed at 30 min (T, ) , 120 min (T,) and 180 min (T3 ) after successful resuscitation respectively for determination of serum TNF-a and IL-Ip and cerebra) SOD activity and MDA content. Results Cerebral SOD activity in group C and D was significantly lower than that in group A but higher than that in group B, while cerebral MDA content in group C and D was significantly higher than that in group A but lower than that in group B ( P
