Objective To seek the optimization hormone combination for the callus induction and differentiation from cotyledon and hypocotyl explants of Chrysanthemum morifolium through tissue culture. Methods Cotyledon and hypocotyl explants were cultured on various medium with different hormone combinations. Results Callus could be inducted on every media designed in this experiment,but the effects to the induction and differentiation culture of buds were different.The results showed that the medium MS+IAA 0.3 mg/L+6-BA 12 mg/L was suitable to the induction of callus from cotyledon and hypocotyl.The optimal hormone combination was MS+IAA 0.3 mg/L+6-BA 4 mg/L for the initiation of adventitious bud of cotyledon.The shoot regeneration percentage reached 67.5%.The optimal medium for the initiation of adventitious bud of hypocotyl was MS+KT 2 mg/L+NAA 0.2 mg/L.The shoot regeneration percentage reached 62.5%.Rooting was induced on 1/2 MS+NAA 0.1 mg/L,and the root inducting ratio reached 100% in 7 d. Conclusion A rapid plantlet regeneration system for C. morifolium is established from cotyledon and hypocotyl explants.Bud induction frequency is higher and the shoots in vitro grow vigorously.

Objective To explore the long-term efficacy of endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) for choledocholithiasis and to evaluate the necessity of cholecystectomy after EST. Methods Two hundred and fifty seven patients who underwent EST for choledocholithiasis in 2006 were followed up for an average period of 34. 8 months (26-48 months). According to the existence of cholecystolithiasis, the patients were divided into group A (combined with cholecystolithiasis, n = 151) and group B (without cholecystolithiasis, n = 106) , and group A was further divided into group A1 as undergoing cholecystectomy after EST (n =56) and group A2 as not having cholecystectomy after EST ( n = 95). Results Of the 257 patients, late complications occurred in 31 patients (12. 1% ) , including recurrent choledocholithiasis in 25 (9.7% ), cholangitis in 27 (10. 1% ) , acute pancreatitis in 2 (0. 8% ) and cholangiocarcinoma in 1 (0.4% ). The rates of late complications and recurrent choledocholithiasis were significantly higher in group A2 than those in group A1 (P<0.05). Conclusion EST is safe and effective for choledocholithiasis. Cholecystectomy after EST is necessary in patients with cholecystolithiasis.

Background and objective To assess the predictive value of C-reactive protein(CRP) for major adverse cardiac events and the association between CRP level and the coronary lesion morphology and extent in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods CRP was measured on admission in 177 consecutive elderly (age≥60 years) patients with CHD who underwent coronary angiography. Patients were divided into high CRP group (CRP≥3mg/L) and normal CRP group (CRP ＜3mg/L). The association between CRP levels and the coronary lesion features, including severity of stenosis (mild, moderate, severe), extent of lesion (diffused or nondiffused), eccentricity of the plaque (eccentric or non-eccentric) were analyzed. Patients were followed up for a mean of 8 months for the occurrences of major adverse cardiac events (MACE). Results Compared with patients in normal CRP group, patients in high CRP group were more frequently to have unstable angina, multi-vessel, diffuse, eccentric lesions, positive remodeling, and non-smooth plaques (P＜0.01). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed patients in high CRP group had a significantly lower MACE-free survival rate than patients in normal CRP group (Log-rank = 12.0, P＜0.01); Cox regression analysis indicated CRP level as an independent predictor for the occurrence of MACE (OR=3.16, P＜0.05) Conclusions High CRP level is associated with more extend, severe and eccentric coronary lesions and is an independent predictor for MACE in elderly patients with CHD.

Objective To study the expression of macrophage inflammatory protein-1α(MIP-1α),inter-feron gamma inducible protein 10(IP -10)and angiopoietin -1 (Ang -1)in primary acute myelogenous leukemia (AML),and clarify their clinical significance.Methods ELISA was used to detect the expressions of MIP -1α,IP-10 and Ang -1 in serum samples from 54 AML patients(observation group),and twenty volunteers(normal control group).Results The expression levels of MIP -1α,IP -10 and Ang -1 in the observation group[(198.813 ± 53.923)pg/mL,(2.332 ±0.745)ng/mL,(1.593 ±0.447)ng/mL]were significantly higher than the normal control group[(153.309 ±44.475)pg/mL,(1.569 ±0.485)ng/mL,(0.838 ±0.333)ng/mL](t =3.369,5.133,6.856, all P <0.05).Subgroup analysis,during the groups of better -risk,intermediate -risk and poor -risk,the contents of MIP -1αwere (141.524 ±27.510)pg/mL,(196.370 ±31.966)pg/mL,(269.892 ±54.795)pg/mL;the contents of IP -10 were (2.085 ±0.332)ng/mL,(2.307 ±0.696)ng/mL,(2.685 ±0.348)ng/mL;the contents of Ang -1 were (1.248 ±0.454)ng/mL,(1.599 ±0.386)ng/mL,(1.951 ±0.359)ng/mL.The levels of MIP -1αand Ang -1 in the better -risk group were significantly lower than those in the intermediate -risk group and poor -risk group (q =6.100,11.438,3.603,5.742,all P <0.05).While the levels of IP -10 had no closely correlation with NCCN risk status(q =1.225,2.643,2.016,all P >0.05).There were remarkable correlation between the serum expression levels of MIP -1αand Ang -1 (r =0.324,P <0.05).Conclusion There are differences of serum MIP -1α, IP -10 and Ang -1 in the different NCCN prognosis groups,which reflect they may have certain guiding significance in the choice of clinical treatment and the prognosis for newly diagnosed AML.

ObjectiveTo evaluate bacteria contamination during collection,processing and storage of cord blood to gain insight into contamination mechanism and direct prevention.MethodsFresh cord blood was separated by hydroxyethyl starch (HES) to harvest nucleated cells.The bacteria contamination was tested by culturing 10 ml plasma-red cells with BacT/ALERT 3D-480 automatic blood culture system.Total 87 positive samples were further identified for bacteria species.Ninety six cord blood nucleated cells concentrate with bacteria positive stored in liquid nitrogen(LN2) for 6-7 years were thawed at 37 C and re-cultured for bacteria analysis.ResultsWe collected 19 062 umbilical cord blood.Among them,336 was bacteria positive ( contamination rate 1.8 ％ ).Eighty-seven positive samples were further investigated with facultative bacteria 58 (66.7 ％ ),aerobic 38(43.7％ ) and anaerobic 17( 19.5％ ),Gram- negative accounted for 68％ while positive 32％.The most frequent bacteria were Escherichia coli ( 25.3％ ),Streptacoccus intermediate ( 14.9％ ) and Chromobacteria violaceum(9.2％ ).Ninety-six nucleated cells concentrate with bacteria positive were cryopreserved at liquid nitrogen for researching.Of them,83 samples( 86％ ) showed positive of bacteria culture after deep-low temperature storage for 6-7 years.ConclusionsBacteria contamination rate of the cord blood collection,processing and storage in 2000 ～ 2007 was 1.8％.Stored in liquid nitrogen for 6-7 years,the viability of bacteria was 86％.The aseptic procedures of cord blood collection in delivery room should be intensified.The bacteria re-culture following thawing of cord blood cells is necessary before clinical transfusion.

Objectives To investigate the prenatal diagnosis method of spinal muscular atrophy with amniotic fluid sample.Methods Totally 1 064 amniotic fluid samples from mid-trimester pregnant women were enrolled during January 2015 and January 2016 in 4 hospitals.Genetic analysis was performed for detecting potential contamination of maternal tissue by a genetic technique based on short tandem repeat ( STR) markers.Deletion of SMN1 gene was detected in 1 062 uncontaminated amniotic fluid samples by real-time PCR and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification ( MLPA) respectively.Results Two contaminated amniotic fluid samples were detected within 1 064 mid-trimester pregnant women by STR genotyping.The other 1 062 uncontaminated amniotic fluid samples were tested by real-time PCR.There were 37 samples with heterozygous deletion of Exon 7 of SMN1 gene ( 3.67%) , 34 samples with heterozygous deletion of Exon 8 of SMN1 gene (3.2%) and two samples with homozygous deletion of Exon 7 and Exon8 of SMN1 gene ( 0.19%) respectively , while other samples observed with no deletion of Exon 7 and Exon8 in SMN1 gene.Totally 41 samples with heterozygous or homozygous deletion of SMN 1 gene and 55 samples with undetected deletion of SMN 1 gene were confirmed by MLPA and the results showed 100%consistence with that of real-time PCR.Conclusions Both real-time PCR and MLPA are suitable for detecting the deletion of SMN 1 gene with amniotic fluid sample . Real-time PCR exhibits less sample requirement and time compared with MLPA .

Objective:To summarize the results and methods of surgical treatment for type A aortic dissection with small true lumen of the descending aorta.Methods:9 patients underwent surgical treatment for type A aortic dissection with small true lumen of the descending aorta between January 2017 and December 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 7 males and 2 females, mean age of (41.6±9.2) years. Acute dissection were 2 cases, and chronic dissection were 7 cases. Preoerative computed tomography was used to diagnose the dissection and evaluate the true lumen of the descending aorta. This procedure was done in all patients via a median sternotomy under hypothermic CPB with SCP. 4-branched prosthetic graft was used to replace the ascending aorta and aortic arch. The procedures involving the descending aorta: Hybrid surgery using TEVAR. Distal intimal flap fenestration. Implanting the intraoperative stent-graft or prosthetic graft at false lumen for second-step operation.Results:There was no in-hospital mortality. Stroke, Spinal cord, visceral ischemia and lower limbs malfunction were not observed. Reintervention was not found in case with acute dissection during follow-up. One patient who reveived fenestration underwent TEVAR, others with chronic dissection underwent thoracoabdominal aortic replacement 3 months after surgery.Conclusion:Hybrid or staged procedures was a suitable alternative to patients with type A aortic dissection with small true lumen of the descending aorta.

Objective To investigate the reliability of using inhibitors including Phenylboronic acid (PBA)and Fqucloxacillin(FCC)in detecting derepressed hyperproduction and plasmid-mediated AmpC B-lactamases.Methods PBA and FCC were chosen as inhibitors and double-disk potentiation method and double-disk synergy method were used to detect positive and negative control strains of AmpC β-lactamases and 107 clinical isolates for AmpC β-lactamases production.The positive control strains included E.cloacae (029M),plasmid-mediated ACT-1 type of E.coli DH5a2919,MOX-1 type of k pheumoniae,LAT-2 type of E.coil.The negative control strains included E.cloacae 029(wild-type),E.coli SHV-1,E.coli SHV-2, E.coil SHV-5,E.coli TEM-1,E.coli TEM-3,k peumoniae SHV-18 and E.coli ATCC25922.We compared the results above with the three dimensional test(3-DT)to observe the accuracy in detecting AmpC-BLA.Results 3-DT together with PBA and FCC based inhibition tests showed the 4 positive control strains and the 9 negative control strains were determined as expected.AmpC-BILA was detected in 107 clinical isolates ofEnterobacteriaceaes.The positive rate of3-DTmethod is24.3%.The positive rates ofPBA.FCC double-disk potentiation method and double-disk synergy method are 30.8%(33/107),26.2%(28/107) and 23.4%(25/107),respectively.The conjugate results in two strains of P mirabilis and one strain of K.peumoniae were positive.They were all plasmid-mediated AmpC-Bi.A.There Was a higher false positive when using PBA and FCC-based double-disk potentiation method to detect the induction type of AmpC-BLA, but the accuracy of double-disk synergy method was high.Compared with the 3-DT,the coincidence rate using PBA and FCC-based double-disk synergy method is 99.1%.Conclusions Using PBA and FCC as inhibitors in the double-disk synergy test is a accurate and reliable method to detect AmpC-BLA regardless of derepressed hyperproduction type or plasmid-mediated type.

Rhei Rhizoma is a Chinese medicine with multiple botanical origins. There is a problem to identify it with conventional methods. To compare the characteristics of chloroplast matK gene sequences of different Rheum species and authenticate inspected species, the matK gene sequences of different species from different origins were amplified, cloned, and sequenced. Genomic DNA of Rheum plants was extracted using modified DNA extracted Kit and matK gene sequences were analyzed by ContingExpress, DNAman and MEGA5.0. The length of matK gene sequences of Rheum palmatum, R. tanguticum and R. officinale were 1 518 bp containing 57 variable loci. According to the mutation sites, R. palmatum, R. tanguticum and R. officinale were divided into different genotypes separately. Based on the established method according to the loci 587, 707, 838, we successfully identified the genuine Rheum species from its adulterants.
