Objective To understand the genotoxicity of organic extracts (OEs) of fishpond water containing sewage.Methods Male Kunming mice were randomly divided into different groups according to the body weight,6 in each group.The OEs were administrated to the mice through peritoneal injection at the doses of 25.00 L/kg,12.50 L/kg and 6.25 L/kg respectively for 3 consecutive days.The negative and positive control groups were treated with DMSO and cyclophosphamide (CP) respectively.The DNA damage was tested by using un-fluorescent staining comet assay.Results The tailed-cells rates and tail length in each OEs treated group were significantly higher than those in the negative control group (P

OBJECTIVE To explore bacteria distribution and changing status in infectious species from our hospital. METHODS The infectious species were collected from daily work.After bacteria culturing and genus identification by VITEK system,bacteriology data and corresponding clinical data were analyzed. RESULTS From Jan 2001 to Dec 2004,Staphylococcus aureus,S.epidermidis,Escherichia coli,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Pseudomonas aeruginosa and fungi were isolated most frequently in order. CONCLUSIONS Dynamic supervision of causative bacteria of nosocomial infection is strongly recommended.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of patients with hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) in autoimmune diseases (AID). Methods We collected the data of 11 patients with AID complicated with HPS in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2004 to 2009. The underlying diseases, clinical features, laboratory findings and treatment outcomes were retrospectively analyzed. Results Of the 11 patients,3 were male,8 were female. Mean age was (30. 7 ± 18. 3) years. The underlying diseases included Still disease ( n = 4 ), systemic lupus erythematosus ( n = 3 ), and rheumatoid arthritis, primary Sj(o)gren's syndrome, Wegener granulomatosis and Crohn disease in each one case. HPS was associated with the onset of AID ( n = 4), active infection alone ( n = 1 ) and both factors ( n = 6 ). HPS was clinically characterized by high fever ( 100% ), hepatosplenomegaly ( 72. 7% ) , lymphadenopathy ( 63.3% ) and central nervous system involvement (36. 3% ). 4 patients presented with disseminated intravascular coagulation(DIC) (36. 3% ). Laboratory data mainly manifested with cytopenia ( 100% ), liver dysfunction ( 100% ), hypofibrinogenemia ( 62. 5% ), hypertriglyceridemia ( 81.8% ), serum ferritin ＞ 500 μg/L (100%), low NK-cell activity(80% ) and hemophagocytosis in bone marrow( 100% ). Based on treating underlying infections and use of corticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents in combination with intravenous immunoglobulins(IVIG) therapy, 5 patients recovered , 6 patients died. The mortality rate was 54. 5%. DIC were associated with mortality ( r = 0. 69, P = 0. 019 ). Conclusion The episode of HPS always occurs simultaneously with multiple system involvement that was often difficult to distinguish from active AID. The present of DIC on HPS related with poor prognosis and high mortality. Corticosteroids and immunodepressant and IVIG may improve the prognosis of HPS, while anti-infection therapy is very important and necessary for the patients accompany with active infection.

Objective To compare the differences of atria and atrial myocyte structure in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and sinus rhythm(SR) .To evaluate the influence of AF on cardiac function .Methods 79 patients without heart failure undergoing car-diopulmonary bypass surgery were divided into the AF group (n=39) and the SR group(n=40) .Echocardiography was performed for analysis of left ventricular end diastolic dimension(LVDd) ,left ventricular end-systolic dimension(LVDs) ,left ventricular poste-rior wall(LVPW) ,interventricular septum(IVS) and left atrial diameter(LAD) .Part of left atrial appendages was taken freshly for HE staining in order to observe atrial tissue structure .Results LVDd ,LVDs ,LVPW and IVS of the AF group were lower than that of the SR group .But LAD of the AF group was higher than the SR group .There was statistical significance in IVS and LAD between the two groups(P<0 .05) ,and there were no significant differences in other aspects (P>0 .05) .Compared with the SR group ,the AF group had thinner myocardial atrophy ,more obvious fibrosis ,smaller nucleus and darker HE staining .Conclusion The incidence of AF was mainly in rheumatic heart disease .The development of AF was mostly accompanied with the enlargement of LAD and the change of atrial tissue structure which showed that AF can reduce cardiac function .

Objective To evaluate satisfaction and complications of deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flaps breast reconstruction afer mastectomy in breast cancer patients.Methods The 26 consecutive breast cancer patients who underwent DIEP flap breast reconstruction were collected.General patient satisfaction and esthetic satisfaction with DIEP flap breast reconstruction were accessed using a study-specific questionnaire modified from the Michigan Breast Reconstruction Outcome Study.Results Flap success rate was 100％.The general satisfaction of DIEP breast reconstruction was 61.9％ (13/21),and the esthetic satisfaction was 66.7％ (14/21).Age (≤40 years old was 81.8％ [9/11],＞40 years old was 40.0％ [4/10],P=0.049) and previous abdominal wall surgery (no previous abdominal wall surgery was 75.0％ [12/16] and previous abdominal wall surgery was 20.0％ [1/5],P=0.027) were significant negative factors affecting general satisfaction;Body mass index (BMI ＜25 kg/m2 was 76.5％ [11/17],BMI 25-30 kg/m2 was 50.0％ [2/4],P=0.049) was a statistically significant factor associated with esthetic satisfaction.Four flaps presented venous congestion.One patient had fat necrosis and one had flap infection of the reconstructed breast.One patient had a decrease in abdominal rotational strength.Conclusions DIEP flap breast reconstruction will offer distinct advantages to patients,in terms of decreased donor-site morbidity and shorter recovery periods.

Objective: To establish the quality standard for Yuhuang sprays. Methods: Berberine hydrochloride in Yuhuang sprays was qualitatively identified by TLC and determined by UV. The Vanillin-H2 SO4 method was employed for the determination of condensed tannins. Results:The spots obtained from the sample solutions showed the same color as those from the reference substance solution without interference from the negative sample. The calibration curve of berberiny hydrochloride was linear within the range of 1. 13-13. 60μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 9), and the average recovery was 99. 68% with RSD of 1. 53%(n=9). The calibration of catechin was linear within the range of 0. 03-0. 30 mg· ml-1(r=0. 999 3), and the average recovery was 99. 6% with RSD of 1. 76%(n=9). Conclusion:The method can be used in the quality control of Yuhuang sprays.

Objective To study the expression of PINCH and vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) in cervical squamous cell carcinoma.Methods We detected the expression of PINCH and VEGF-C by immunohistochemistry SP in 58 cervical squamous cell carcinoma cases and 30 normal cervical epithelial tissue and analyzed their relationship to the clinical pathological features.Results The expression of PINCH and VEGF-C in 58 cervical squamous cell carcinoma(62.1％,36/58 ;67.2％,39/58 ) were higher than that in normal cervical epithelial tissue(0,0/30).The difference was significant( x2 =31.512,12.534,P ＜ 0.001 ).The expression of PINCH protein was not significantly associated with the age,tumor size and tumor differentiation grade ( P ＞ 0.05 ),but was associated with the lymph node metastasis and clinical stage ( x2 =9.090,8.236,P ＜ 0.001 ).The expression of VEGF-C had no significant correlationship with the age and tumor size( P ＞ 0.05 ) but had a correlationship with the lymph node metastasis,tumor differentiation grade and clinical stage( x2 =10.775,13.496,5.001,P ＜ 0.05 ).The expression of VEGF-C was correlated with the expression of PINCH protein( C =0.341,P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusion It is possible that VEGF-C and PINCH take part in the development and progress of cervical squamous cell carcinoma and play an important role in the invasion and metastasis mechanism altogether.

Objective:To investigate the expression of mesothelin mRNA (MESO mRNA) and tumor metastasis suppressor gene KISS1 mRNA in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and its correlation with prognosis.Methods:From January 2017 to January 2019, 52 patients with EOC in Tangshan Maternal & Child Health Care Hospital were selected as the observation group, and 52 healthy controls were selected as the control group. The levels of MESO mRNA and KISS1 mRNA between the two groups were compared; the correlation of MESO mRNA and KISS1 mRNA and EOC were analyzed; the correlation between MESO mRNA and KISS1 mRNA and clinicopathological characteristics was analyzed, and the expression of MESO mRNA and KISS1 mRNA in patients with different prognosis was compared after followed up for 1 year.Results:The levels of MESO mRNA and KISS1 mRNA in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (1.41 ± 0.40 vs. 1.41 ± 0.40, 0.73 ± 0.08 vs. 0.54 ± 0.07), and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The area under the curve(AUC) of combined diagnosis of EOC with MESO mRNA and KISS1 mRNA was 0.892 (95% CI 0.816 - 0.944), which was higher than the AUC of MESO mRNA and KISS1 mRNA single diagnosis ,which were 0.798 (95% CI 0.708 - 0.870), and 0.812 (95% CI 0.723 - 0.882). The differences of blood MESO mRNA level in different pathological types, operations-pathological stage, pathological grade, tumor diameter, lymph node metastasis were statistically significant ( P<0.05); the differences of blood KISS1 mRNA level in different operations-pathological stage, pathological grade, tumor diameter, lymph node metastasis were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The blood MESO mRNA level of the dead was higher than that of the survivors(1.52 ± 0.17 vs. 1.38 ± 0.15), the blood KISS1 mRNA level was lower than that of the survivors (0.69 ± 0.07 vs. 0.74 ± 0.06), and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05).The 1-year survival rate of patients with high expression of blood MESO mRNA was lower than that with low expression, and the 1-year survival rate of patients with high expression of KISS1 mRNA was higher than that with low expression ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The expression of MESO mRNA and KISS1 mRNA in the peripheral blood of patients with EOC is increased, but with the progression of the disease, MESO mRNA is increased and KISS1 mRNA is decreased. The abnormal expression of the two may participate in the development of EOC.
