Objective To explore the diagnosis,treatment,risk factors and prognosis factors of postpancreaticoduodenectomy hemorrhage (PPH).Methods The retrospective case-control study was adopted.The clinical data of 703 patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy at Hospital 401 of the People's Liberation Army from January 2008 to July 2013 were collected.Standard pancreatoduodenectomy was carried out for the malignant tumors of the head of pancreas or ampulla,pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy was operated for the benign tumor or the duodenal papilla tumor.The corresponding treatment was adopted for PPH.The observation indicators included:(1) the surgical situation (surgical method,operation time and the volume of intraoperative blood loss),(2) diagnosis of PPH,(3) treatment of PPH,(4) univariate and multivariate analyses for the risk factors affecting the occurrence of PPH,(5) univariate and multivariate analyses for the risk factors affecting prognosis of PPH patients.The measurement data with normal distribution were represented as x ± s.The measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range).The chi-square test or Fisher exact probability was used for univariate analysis.Logistic regression model was used for multivariate analysis.Results (1) The surgical situation:among 703 patients,409 patients underwent standard pancreatoduodenectomy and 294 underwent pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy,including 1 combined with right hemihepatectomy,27 with portal vein reconstruction and 2 with hepatic artery reconstruction.Pancreaticojejunostomy was applied to 658 patients using mucosa anastomosis of the pancreatic duct to jejunum and 45 patients using invagination anastomosis.Supporting tube was routinely deposed in the pancreatic duct,598 patients had internal drainage and 105 patients had external drainage.The end-to-side anastomosis between common bile duct and jejunum was used for choledochojejunostomy.The 409 patients received the gastrojejunostomy using side-to-side anastomosis of gastric part and jejunum and 294 patients using end-to-side anastomosis of duodenum and jejunum.Operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss were (324 ± 54) minutes and (428 ± 118) mL.(2) The diagnosis of PPH:among 703 patients after pancreatoduodenectomy,62 patients had PPH,the hemorrhage reasons of 38 patients had been identified,and the hemorrhage reasons of 24 patients had not been identified (A level in 5 patients,B level in 17 patients,C level in 2 patients).① The site of hemorrhage:the hemorrhage outside the cavity were detect in 27 patients,the hemorrhage inside the cavity in 28 patients,and the hemorrhage from both outside and inside part of the cavity in 7 patients.② The time of hemorrhage:early-stage hemorrhage were detected in 5 patients and the delayed hemorrhage in 57 patients.③The volume of postoperative blood loss was (885 ± 253)mL,30 patients had mild hemorrhage and 32 patients had severe hemorrhage.④ The clinical classification of PPH:5,32 and 25 patients were detected in level A,B,C,and 19 patients combined with sentinel hemorrhage.(3) The treatment of PPH:①5 patients with PPH in A level were given clinical observation,blood volume supplement and other treatment,then the symptoms gradually turned better.② Among 32 patients with PPH in B level,15 patients became better after symptomatic and supportive treatments,6 patients received successful hemostasis after guglielmi detachable colis embolization,4 patients received successful hemostasis under gastroscopic hemostasis,7 patients received emergency exploratory laparotomy.Thirty-two patients were improved and then out of hospital after treatment,without occurrence of death.③ Among 25 patients with PPH in C level,4 patients received successful hemostasis after guglielmi detachable colis embolization,17 patients received hemostasis by emergency exploratory laparotomy,4 patients with undiscovered bleeding points received the treatment of fluid infusion,blood volume supplement and antacid.Among 25 patients after corresponding treatment,10 patients were improved and 15 patients were dead.(4) The result of univariate analysis showed that the combined hypertension,vascular resection and reconstruction,postoperative pancreatic leakage and postoperative intraabdominal infection were risk factors affecting the occurrence of PPH (x2 =4.950,5.300,7.568,5.505,P < 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that the combined pancreatic leakage and postoperative intraabdominal infection were independent risk factors affecting the occurrence of PPH [OR =2.761,2.216,95% confidence interval (CI):1.389-5.489,1.198-4.101,P < 0.05].(5) The risk factors affecting the prognosis of PPH patients:the results of univariate analysis showed that postoperative sentinel hemorrhage,postoperative pancreatic leakage,site,degree and level of hemorrhage were risk factors affecting the prognosis of PPH patients (x2 =8.022,4.448,11.853,18.551,28.285,P < 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that postoperative sentinel hemorrhage and site of hemorrhage (outside and inside part of the cavity) were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of PPH patients (OR =5.550,0.233,95% CI:1.595-19.314,0.086-0.635,P < 0.05).Conclusions Pancreatic leakage and intraabdominal infection are independent risk factors after pancreatoduodenectomy.The treatment effect of the early-stage hemorrhage is better than that of the delayed hemorrhage,and angiographic embolization is the first choice of diagnosis and treatment for the delayed hemorrhage.Sentinel hemorrhage could result from aneurysm or continuous arterial hemorrhage of vascular erosion,it is the independent risk factor affecting the death of hemorrhage after pancreatoduodenectomy.

Lung cancer is the most common tumor and one of the malignant tumors with the lowest livability after diagnosis, as is known so far. Large-scale image database is the foundation of developing computer-aided diagnosis methods, education and training in lung cancer diagnosis to improve medical diagnostic efficiency and to reduce the doctors' burden. In this study, aiming at improving the low data storage efficiency and solving the lacking of tool for data visualization and data retrieval existing in the use of traditional Lung Image Database Consortium (LIDC) from the lung cancer database, we developed a new lung cancer image database platform including an improved data model, a data integration tool, an image and annotation visualization tool and a data retrieving component. Firstly, the data format in LIDC was analyzed and an improved information model was provided to manage and manipulate large amount data stored in it. Next, some tools such as data integration component, DICOM, image and annotation visualization tool, and data query were designed and implemented. The study demonstrated that the lung cancer image database platform had the capacity of data collection, visualization, and query, and could promote diagnose lung cancer research.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the genetic basis for a pedigree affected with Alport syndrome.
METHODS:
Next generation sequencing and Sanger sequencing was applied to detect potential variants of the COL4A3, COL4A4 and COL4A5 genes among members from the pedigree and 100 unrelated healthy controls.
RESULTS:
The proband and his twin brother were found to carry two novel variants, namely c.4953G>A and c.4623C>A, of the COL4A4 gene, which were respectively inherited from her father and mother. The same variants were not detected among the 100 healthy controls and medical literature. Based on the guidelines of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics, both the c.4953G>A and c.4623C>A variants were predicted to be pathogenic (PVS1+PM2_supporting+PP1).
CONCLUSION
The c.4953G>A and c.4623C>A variants of the COLA4A gene probably underlay the Alport syndrome in this pedigree. Above finding has enriched the spectrum of COLA4A gene variants.

Objective: To investigate the mechanisms of miR-375 affecting the proliferation and invasion of hepatoma cells via targeting YAP (Yes-associated protein). Methods: The cancerous tissues and corresponding para-cancerous tissues of 70 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who underwent surgical resection at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2015 to December 2016, as well as the hepatoma cell lines SMMC-7721, Hb611, HepG2 and BEL-7405 were collected for this study. qPCR method was used to detect the expression level of miR-375 in collected HCC tissues and different hepatoma cell lines; Dual luciferase reporter gene assay was used to verify the interaction between miR-375 and YAP; The relationship between miR-375 and clinicopathological features of HCC patients was also analyzed; MTT assay was used to detect the effect of miR375 on the proliferation of hepatoma cells; Transwell invasion assay was used to detect the invasive ability of hepatoma cells after inhibiting the expression of miR-375; Western blotting was used to detect the expression of YAP in HepG2 cells. The nude mouse model of subcutaneously transplanted xenograft was established, and the tumor volume and mass of transplanted hepatoma cells were detected after inhibiting the expression of miR-375. The expression of YAP in xenograft of nude mice was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. Results: The expression of miR-375 and YAP in HCC tissues was significantly higher than that in para-cancerous tissues (all P<0.05). The expression of miR-375 in HepG2 cells was the highest (P<0.05). miR-375 could specifically bind to the 3' UTR of YAP and regulate the expression activity of YAP. After inhibiting the expression of miR-375, the proliferation and invasion abilities of HepG2 cells were reduced (all P<0.05); The tumor volume and mass of transplanted xenografts were significantly reduced (both P<0.05); The expression of YAP protein in the transplanted xenografts was down-regulated (P<0.05). Conclusion: miR-375 plays an important role in the occurrence and development of liver cancer, and can influence the malignant biological behaviors of hepatoma cells by targeting and regulating the expression ofYAP.

【Objective】 To screen the distribution frequency of Mur blood group among voluntary blood donors in Hezhou, Guangxi, and further analyze the molecular basis of of Mur antigen positive samples. 【Methods】 The Mur phenotype of voluntary blood donors in Hezhou was serologically screened using microplate method, and the distribution frequency of Mur antigens in different ethnic groups was analyzed. Genetic typing was performed on these positive samples with PCR-SSP method to verify the accuracy of the serological method, and the genetic background was sequenced and analyzed. 【Results】 Among 3 298 samples from voluntary blood donors in Hezhou, 432(13.10%, 432/3 298) were screened positive for Mur antigen, and PCR-SSP genotyping validation showed that all 432 samples were electrophoretic positive. Among them, the proportion of Han blood donors with positive Mur antigen was 12.79%(331/2 587), Yao ethnic group was 13.25%(64/483), Zhuang ethnic group was 16.51%(36/218), and no statistically significant difference was found in the three groups(P>0.05). Further sequencing results showed that 428 samples were GYP(B-A-B) Mur, also known as GYP. Mur type(12.98%, 428/3 298), the other 4 samples were GYP(B-A-B) Bun, also known as GYP. Bun type(0.12%, 4/3 298). 【Conclusion】 The Mur blood type frequency is high in the voluntary blood donors in Hezhou, Guangxi, and is predominant characterized by GYP. Mur genotype. Due to ethnic integration, no significant difference was noticed in the frequency of Mur blood type distribution between Han, Zhuang and Yao population. Therefore, conducting extensive Mur blood group antigen and antibody testing in Hezhou is of great significance for ensuring clinical blood transfusion safety.
