Objective To understand the fluorescence pattern of antinuclear antibody(ANA)and the distribution of target anti-gen and ANA′s impact on rheumatoid arthritis(RA)RA.Methods The data of rheumatoid factor(RF)and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies(anti-CCP antibodies)and ANA of 860 RA patients during 2014-2015 were collected and divided into 2 groups according to the ANA levels.The differences of RF and anti-CCP antibodies level between 2 groups were analyzed.Analyzed the fluorescence pattern of RA merger ANA and the distribution of target antigen by statistical.Results Of the 860 RA patients,the positive rate of ANA was 37.6%,the major fluorescence pattern of RA merger ANA was speckled pattern,anti SSA positive rate was 21.7%.The RF and anti-CCP antibodies level had statistical difference between ANA positive group and ANA negative group (P <0.05).Conclusion RA merger ANA positive can show different fluorescence patterns and target antigen,the speckled pattern and anti-SSA positive are the main pattern.The severity of arthritis symptoms and the degree of bone destruction between ANA positive group and ANA negative group were difference.Anti-ANA positive has a certain promoting effect on the progression of RA disease.

Objective To investigate the surgical efficacy for the treatment of ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysms with different dome projections in acute phase via supraorbital lateral approach.Methods From January 2014 to March 2017,the clinical data of 79 patients with acute ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysm with different dome projections in acute phase treated via supraorbital lateral approach in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were retrospectively analyzed.The operative efficacy was analyzed.The Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) score was used to evaluate the prognosis at 3-36 months after procedure.Results In the 79 patients,34 were superior dome projections,37 was inferior dome projections,and 8 were complicated dome projections.All the anterior communicating artery aneurysms were successfully clipped.The patients were followed up for 3-36 months after procedure.GOS showed good prognosis in 70 cases (88.6％),of which 26 were superior dome projections,36 were inferior dome projections,and 8 were complicated dome projections;9 suffered mild disability (11.4％),of which 8 were superior dome projections and 1 was inferior dome projection.There were no severe disability,persistent vegetative state,and death.The prognosis in patients with inferior dome projection was better than that of superior dome projection (97.3％ [36/37] vs.76.5％ [26/34]).The difference was statistically significant (χ2=5.19,P<0.05).Conclusions The lateral supraorbital approach is an effective option for treating ruptured ACoAA with different dome projections in acute phase.The prognosis in patients with inferior dome projection is better than that of superior dome projection.

CMTM family is silenced and down-regulated in several kinds of tumors.Its aberrant expression has a strong association with the development,progression and metastasis of tumors.Thus,CMTM family is potential tumor suppressor genes.Epigenetics mechanism is the essential mechanism of the aberrant expression in this gene family.The discovery of this research gives a new direction to the clinical treatment of tumor.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of nonimmunocompromised patients with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA).Methods The clinical data of 11 nonimmunocompromised patients diagnosed as ABPA from June 2010 to December 2015 in Zhejiang Jinhua People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.SPSS 18.0 was used for analysis.Results Among 11 patients with ABPA, Five were males and 6 were females, with an average age of (49.3 ±11.0) years.All patients had cough, expectoration and wheezing;cough and tan sputum in 4 cases, bloody sputum in 3 cases, fever in 2 cases and chest pain in 2 cases.In auscultation dry rales were heard in all patients , and limited wet rales were heard in 3 cases.The peripheral blood leukocyte counts were elevated in 5 patients [11.7(10.3-13.5) × 109/L)] and the eosinophils counts were increased in 9 patients [1.79(0.09-7.63) ×109/L].The total IgE was elevated to 3640(1329-9430) IU/mL.Skin prick test was positive ( grade 3 to 5) in 10 cases, Aspergillus fumigatus specific IgE increased to 23.6(1.75-67.30) kU/L in 6 cases, Aspergillus fumigatus specific IgG raised to 83.3(51-126) mg/L in 5 cases.Chest CT showed patchy, punctate exudation in 8 cases, central bronchiectasis in 9 cases, bronchial mucosal plug formation in 4 cases, and atelectasis in 1 case.Mediastinal lymph nodes were found in 2 cases.All 11 patients were treated with glucocorticoid hormone, and 8 patients were also received itraconazole oral solution for treatment.After treatment, the clinical symptoms were improved rapidly.Conclusion Nonimmunocompromised patients with ABPA have no specific clinical manifestations , and often are misdiagnosed as asthma , which is worth the attention of clinicians.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of carotid endarterectomy ( CEA) for the treatment of patients with dolichoarteriopathies of internal carotid artery combined with carotid artery severe stenosis. Methods From January 2013 to February 2018,the clinical data of 18 consecutive patients with dolichoarteriopathy of internal carotid artery combined with carotid artery severe stenosis admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery,the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were analyzed retrospectively. All patients underwent color Doppler ultrasound,CT angiography (CTA),and DSA to assess the diseased vessels before operation,and blood perfusion of the cerebral hemisphere was evaluated by CT perfusion (CTP) imaging. Six patients of Metz grade Ⅱ and 4 of grade Ⅲ underwent valgus CEA +excision of the redundant internal carotid arteries;8 patients of Metz grade I were treated with standard CEA. Postoperative cervical vascular ultrasound,CTA,and CTP examinations were performed in order to understand the vascular patency of the surgery and correction of dolichoarteriopathies of internal carotid artery. The follow-up time was 6 to 72 months. The color Doppler flow imaging and CTA were used to assess the presence or absence of restenosis and MRI was used to evaluate the presence of new cerebral infarction. Results All 18 patients were successfully operated, and they had good vascular patency after operation. The Postoperative CTA showed that the distorted blood vessels had been straightened to varying degrees for ten patients who underwent valgus CEA treatment and the plaques were removed satisfactorily without stenosis for 8 patients treated with standard CEA. After operation,one patient developed sublingual nerve injury symptoms,which was improved after 3 months. One patient developed mild hyperperfusion syndrome,which was improved after 2 weeks. No patients died. Follow-up reexamination showed that all patients had no carotid artery restenosis and new stroke events. Conclusions CEA is a safe and effective treatment for patients with internal carotid artery dolichoarteriopathy combined with severe carotid stenosis. According to the characteristics of the lesions evaluated before surgery, surgical methods should be selected reasonably.

Objective To investigate the transmission of blaNDM-1 gene in carbapenem-resistant Citrobacter freundii. Methods A total of 18 strains of NDM-1-producing C. freundii were collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University during the period from June 2012 to October 2014. The isolates were identified and subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility testing with VITEK 2 System. Conjugation experiments, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and Southern blot hybridization were performed to determine the transferability of plasmids. Results The antibiotic susceptibility results showed that all the NDM-1-producing C. freundii isolates were resistant to penicillins, cephalosporins and carbapenems. All isolates exhibited different level resistance to other antibiotics. Conjugation experiments revealed that the plasmids harboring blaNDM-1 in 13 strains were transformed into E. coli 600, and exhibited carbapenem resistance. PFGE and Southern blot hybridization found that blaNDM-1 was located on a 33.3 kb plasmid in 16 isolates and on 33.3-54.7 kb plasmid in 2 isolates. Conclusions Our findings suggest that plasmids contribute to the horizontal dissemination of blaNDM-1 gene in carbapenemresistant C. freundii.

Abstract To investigate the curative effects of modified submucosal tunnel endoscopic resection(STER) and endoscopic submucosal resection(ESE) in the treatment of paracardial submucosal tumors. Eighty-four patients with paracardial submucosal tumors diagnosed through digestive endoscopy and endoscopic ultrasonography signed informed consent forms, and they were randomly divided into observation group(n=42) and control group(n=42) with the help of the table of random numbers. Patients in the control group received ESE treatment. Patients in the observation group received modified STER surgery.The operation time, average hospitalization time and treatment cost of patients in STER group were(61.32±32.01) min,(8.11±2.42) d and(21.7±3.4) thousand Chinese Yuan respectively, which were better than those in ESE group(87.63±34.09) min,(10.05±2.84) d and(25.9±3.9) thousand Chinese Yuan. The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). The average number of titanium clips used in the observation group was(5.00±1.37), and in the control group the average number was(4.68±1.25). The difference was not statistically significant. In the STER group, there were 2 cases of intraoperative perforation and 1 case of delayed bleeding. In the ESE group, there were 4 cases of intraoperative perforation and 3 cases of intraoperative uncontrollable bleeding. The incidence of postoperative complications in the STER group was lower than that in the ESE group. The postoperative pathological examination revealed that in both groups the tumors were mostly stromal tumor and leiomyoma. A few of the patients were suffering from lipomas and schwannomas. There was no significant difference in terms of the pathological composition of the patients between the two groups.
