【Objective】 To understand the polymorphism of D13S63 1 in Guangdong Han population. 【Method】 Short tandem repeat (STR) locus D13S63 1 was analyzed by means of polymerase chain reaction, following discontinuous el ectrophoresis system. 【Result】 Among 227 unrelated individuals from Guangdong Han population, 6 alleles rang from 197~217 bp could be observed. The most com mon allele with a frequency 0.2907 is allele 201 bp, the rare allele is allele 197 bp with a frequency 0.0903. The heterozygosity, the power of discrimination and the exclusion chance in paternity case were 0.7885,0.9231, 0.5543, respect ively. Segregation studies reveal that D13S631 inherit in Medel's Law. 【Conclus ion】 The result shows that locus D13S631 is highly informative and suitable fo r forensic application.

Objective:To explore the risk factors of hemothorax after rib fracture and evaluate its predictive value for hemothorax.Methods:A retrospective case control study was made on the data of 449 patients with rib fracture admitted to Jiangsu Shengze Hospital affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from January 2018 to November 2019. There were 308 males and 141 females,with the age range of 19-97 years[(57.4±14.0)years]. The hemothorax was defined as pleural effusion on chest CT or X examination on admission or within one week after admission. There were 330 patients in hemothorax group and 119 patients in non-hemothorax group. Indices were compared between the two groups,including gender,age,occupation,weight,height,underlying diseases[diabetes,chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD),hypertension,hyperlipidemia],causes of injury,imaging findings[number of rib fracture,flail chest,bilateral rib fractures,locations of rib fracture and intramural injuries(pneumothorax,pulmonary contusion,mediastinal emphysema and myocardial contusion)],thoracic cavity drainage,injury to admission time,vital signs(blood pressure and heart rate),routine blood[white blood cell,hemoglobin(Hb),platelet,hematocrit(Hct)],blood type,urine routine(urinary occult blood,urinary protein,urinary ketone body),biochemical examination[total cholesterol(TCHO),triglyceride(TG),high density lipoprotein(HDL-C),low-density lipoprotein(LDL-C),albumin(ALB),total bilirubin(TBIL),glutamic oxalacetic transaminase(AST),alanine transaminase(ALT),urea nitrogen(BUN),creatinine(CRE),glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1C)],coagulation tests[prothrombin time(PT),fibrinogen(FIB),plasma D-dimer(D-D),thrombin time(TT)]after admission,trauma score[chest wall injury score(CIS),injury severity score(ISS),new injury severity score(NISS)]and length of hospital stay. The univariate analysis was used to observe the correlation between each factor and hemothorax after rib fracture and to screen the significant correlation factors,followed by multivariate logistic regression analysis to further identify the independent risk factors. The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the predictive value of continuous variables in independent risk factors and to calcuate the optimal threshold.Results:The two groups showed no significant differences in gender,occupation,weight,height,diabetes,COPD,hyperlipidemia,injury to admission time,blood pressure,heart rate,platelet,urine protein,urine ketone body,TCHO,HDL-C,TBIL,ALT,CRE,HbA1C or PT( P>0.05). The hemothorax group showed significantly decreased Hb,Hct,TG,LDL-C and TT and significantly increased age,number of rib fracture,white blood cell count,AST,FIB,D-D,trauma score(CIS,ISS,NISS)and length of hospital stay when compared to non-hemothorax group( P<0.05). There were significant differences in hypertension,causes of injury,flail chest,bilateral rib fractures and locations of rib fracture and urinary occult blood between the two groups( P<0.05). The univariate analysis showed that age,hypertension,number of rib fractures,flail chest,bilateral rib fractures,locations of rib fracture(upper chest anterolateral segment,middle chest anterolateral segment,middle chest posterolateral segment,middle chest proximal spinal segment,lower chest posterolateral segment,lower chest proximal spinal segment),pneumothorax,pulmonary contusion,myocardial contusion,thoracic cavity drainage,white blood cell count,urinary occult blood,BUN,FIB,trauma score(CIS,ISS,NISS)and length of hospital stay were significantly associated with hemothorax( P<0.05). The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that locations of rib fracture(including middle chest posterolateral segment,middle chest proximal spinal segment,lower chest posterolateral segment and lower chest proximal spinal segment),pulmonary contusion,thoracic cavity drainage,BUN and trauma score(CIS,ISS,NISS)were significantly associated with hemothorax after rib fracture( P<0.05). The ROC curve analysis of continous variables in independent risk factors showed BUN area under the curve(AUC)of 0.587(95% CI 0.529-0.645),CIS AUC of 0.824(95% CI 0.779-0.870),ISS AUC of 0.789(95% CI 0.739-0.840)and NISS AUC of 0.876(95% CI 0.835-0.917)( P<0.05),and the optimal thresholds for the above variables were 5.0 mmol/L,2.5 points,15 points and 21.5 points,respectively. Conclusion:Locations of rib fracture(including the middle chest posterolateral segment,middle chest proximal spinal segment,lower chest posterolateral segment,lower chest proximal spinal segment),pulmonary contusion,thoracic cavity drainage,BUN,trauma score(CIS,ISS,NISS)are independent risk factors for hemothorax after rib fracture. BUN>5.0 mmol/L and trauma score(CIS>2.5 points,ISS>15 points,NISS>21.5 points)have significant values in predicting hemothorax.

Objective:
To investigate the effect of different thoracicdrainage methods afte single holethoracoscopicsurgery for lung cancer.
Methods:
200 patents with lung cancer undergoing single holethoracoscopicsurgery were divided into two groups : group A and group B in the first affliliated Hospital of Suzhou University from April 2014 to December 2016. Group A: 100 patients with 30#single thoracic drainage tube after operation. Groupe B: 100 patients with 30#thoracic drainage tube plus a negative pressure drainage tube after operation. The amount of thoracic drainage tube , drainage time , postoperative chest puncture, postoperative pain, hospital stay and total costs of hospitalization were observed in both groups.
Results:
There was no difference in age, sex, pathological type and pulmonary lobectomy between the two groups. Total thoracic drainage[(1 007.4±512.95)ml vs.(982.35±359.93)ml]and totaltube time[(5.71±2.61)days vs.(5.43±1.91) days] had no significant difference between the two groups. There was a significant difference in the length of 30#thoracic drainage tube [(5.71±2.61)days vs.(2.9±0.61)days]between the two groups. The difference of hospitalization time[(12.05±2.93)days vs.(13.45±4.15)days]and hospitalization expenses[(63 376.47±1 615.82)yuan vs.(64 449.82±3 650.04)yuan]was statistically significant. The rate of rethoracotomy in gruop A was 7%, the rate of rethoracotomy in group B was 0, the comparison between the two groups was statistically significant. VAS pain scores were compared on the first day and the second day, there was no significant difference on the third day after operation. On the fifth day after operation, the difference was statistically significant.
Conclusion
Adding a negative pressure drainage tube on the basis of using a single thoracoscopic drainage tube for radical resection of lung cancer after single hole thoracoscopic surgery will not increase postoperative pain of patients, significantly shorten postoperative hospitalization time, effectively control postoperativerethoracopunchure rate, thus effectively reduce postoperative hospitalization costs of patients.
