Objective To explore the relationship of hepatitis B virus surface antigen(HBsAg)infec-tion and family history of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)with age at primary liver cancer. Methods Totally 1 359 cases of primary liver cancer were enrolled. Their data of sex,HBsAg status and family history informa-tions of liver cancer were analyzed on the associations with diagnosis age. Results Of the 1 359 cases,1 053 were males and 306 were females,their average age at diagnosis was(54. 02 ± 10. 47)years(20-84 years). For HBsAg positive cases,the average age at diagnosis was 51. 99,significantly younger than that of HBsAg negative cases(61. 23),t = 13. 51,P = 0. 000. Cases with family history of HCC were diagnosed at a signifi-cantly earlier age than those without family history(52. 53 vs 55. 23,t = 4. 389,P = 0. 000). In HBsAg posi-tive cases,the average age at diagnosis showed a significant difference not only between males and females (51. 18 vs 54. 89,t = 5. 353,P = 0. 000),but also between cases with family history and cases without family history(51. 33 vs 52. 62,t = 2. 233,P = 0. 026). In HBsAg negative cases,the average age at diagnosis of males and females were 60. 83 and 62. 45 respectively(t = 1. 126,P = 0. 261). The average age at diagnosis of cases with family history and cases without family history were 59. 58 and 61. 92 respectively(t = 1. 728,P =0. 085),both showed no significant difference. Conclusion Cases of primary liver cancer with positive-HBsAg are diagnosed averagely 9. 24 years younger than those with negative-HBsAg in Qidong. Sex and family history of HCC significantly advance hepatocarcinogenesis only in HBsAg positive individuals,not in HBsAg negative individuals.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic significance of endoscopic findings in Henoch-Schonlein purpura(HSP),especially when abdominal pain preceded the cutaneous lesions.Methods The clinical data and gastroscopic findings in 37 cases of children with HSP were studied and analysed retrospectively in order to detect the pathological changes in the stomach and duodenum mucosa.The biopsy was taken in the pathological changeing place,and the relationship between clinical and endoscopic findings was analyzed.Results Detection rate of the pathological changes in the stomach and duodenum mucosa was 62.2%,31.3% of which experienced only cutaneous lesions,100% of which presented the acute abdominal pain.Three patients were not checked up the pathological changes.Of them,1 had arthritis,2 had Henoch-Schonlein nephritis.Characteristically endoscopic findings in the stomach and duodenum mucosa were found.The endoscopic findings included anabrosis,hyperemia,edema and hemorrhage.Conclusions Detection rate of the pathological changes in the stomach and duodenum mucosa is higher.Endoscopy is very helpful to the early diagnosis of HSP in children,especially abdominal pain presented firstly.

Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) technology combined with cluster analysis method was used to classify 75 batches of crystalline ceftriaxone sodium into subtypes, the crystalline characteristics of each subtype were measured with scanning electron microscope (SEM). By comparing some parameters of these subtypes correlated to crystallization process of ceftriaxone sodium, such as salification rate, water content in different subtypes, as well as by studying different lattice stabilities, different compatibilities with rubber closures during accelerated stability tests, the key point to improve the quality of domestic ceftriaxone sodium was disclosed. The results of this paper indicated that the fine structure of the products could be controlled well by improving the salification and crystallization process. As a result, the subtype II of ceftriaxone sodium with high stability can be produced.

Objective To investigate the distribution of high-arsenic drinking water in Honghu city of Hubei province in order to provide a scientific basis for prevention and control of endemic arsenic disease.Methods Investigations were made in 22 townships(towns,districts),68 natural villages of the drainage areas of the Dongjing River,the Neijing River and the Yangtse River in 2006 and 2007,with the townships(towns,districts)around Shahu town in Xiantao city as the focal point.1000 water samples were drawn each year,which was 10% of all the wells in every natural village.Using sampling investigation,water arsenic Was determined by half-quantitative fast reagent kit.All samples of water with arsenic exceeding the standard(≥0.03 mg/L)were re-determined according to state standard.Surveys on the disease was carried out in the villages(brigades)where arsenic exceeded the standard.Results A total of 2000 samples were surveyed from 68 natural villages,of which there were 401 samples from 48 villages exceeding the standard in a rate of 20.05%(401/2000).The highest arsenic content Was 0.71 mg/L.The high arsenic water sources were distributed mainy in the drainage areas of the Dongjing River and the Neijing River,but no patients with endemic arsenic disease were found.Conclusions The high arsenic water sources are distributed mainly in the drainage areas of the Dongjing River and the Neijing River.It is suggested that the interrelated government departments should take precise measures to impmve the quality of drinking water and ensure safe water to the residents in high arsenic areas.

Objective Acrysof IQ Restor multifocal toric intraocular lens ( IOL) is a new product , which allows a single sur-gical procedure for presbyopia correction and corneal astigmatism management .This study was to evaluate the early clinical effects of phacoemulsification cataract surgery with implantation of a diffractive multifocal toric IOL . Methods We retrospectively analyzed 7 cases (9 eyes) of corneal astigmatism ≥1.0 diopter (D) treated by phacoemulsification with implantation of an Acrysof IQ Restor toric IOL.The patients were followed up for 3 months for observation of uncorrected distance visual acuity ( UDVA) , best corrected distance visual acuity ( CDVA) , uncorrected near visual acuity ( UNVA ) , best corrected near visual acuity ( CNVA ) , spherical equivalent (SE) refraction, focal depth, residual astigmatism, rotational stability of the IOL, contrast sensitivity (CS), and spectacle independ-ence preoperatively and at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months after operation . Results At 3 months after surgery , the UDVA ( log-MAR), CDVA, UNVA, and CNVA were 0.07 ±0.10, 0.02 ±0.11, 0.12 ±0.06, and 0.08 ±0.07, respectively, with an SE re-fraction within ±0.50 D of the attempted spherical correction in 8 eyes (88.9%) and a focal depth of (5.32 ±1.78) D.The residual astigmatism at 3 months was significantly reduced as compared with the baseline ([0.25 ±0.28] vs [1.55 ±0.39] D, P<0.05), but showed no statistically significant differences from the preoperative an-ticipated residual astigmatism (P>0.05).At 3 months, the mean IOL axis rotation was (3.11 ±1.61)°and CS was remarkably im-proved ( P<0 .05 ) , while CS with or without glare was not significantly different from that at 1 month at all spatial frequencies ( P>0.05) except at 18.0 cpd (P<0.05). Conclusion Implantation of the Acrysof IQ Restor multifocal toric IOL provides excellent overall quality of vision, spectacle independence, visual quality, and rotational stability for patients with cataract and corneal astigmatism.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and surgical treatment of gastric cancer in elderly patients.Methods The clinical data of 431 patients older than 70 years with gastric cancer from 1984 to 1998 were analyzed retrospectively.Results The main clinical manifestations were upper abdominal pain,distension or upset,loss of appetite and weight.The patients with clinicalⅢ,Ⅳ stage accounted for 64.2 percent.Pathological findings showed no specificity.Radical gastrectomy was performed in 215 cases(49.9%),and palliative resection was done in 122 ones(28.3%).The operative mortality and postoperative complication rate were 5.1%and 25.5%in the patients respectively.The 5-year survival rate was 29.5%in the patients with surgery,53.2%with radical gastrectomy and 10.7%with palliative resection.There were significant differences in 5-year survival rate between the radical and palliative groups.Conclusions The majority of elderly patients are clinical Ⅲ,Ⅳ stages and their operative complication rate is high.The key to increase the survival rate and life quality of elderly patients with gastric cancer is early diagnoses,strong perioperative management and suitable radical surgery.

A hybridoma cell line(B10)was established by fusing spleen cells of BALB/c mou- se immunized with human thyroglobulin(HTG) with SP2/0 myeloma cells. An averagefusing rate of 6.3% and antibody-secreting positive well rate of 58.3% were obtained.During the first two months, the supernatant of B10 culture had a titer of 1/128 to1/2048 measured by hemagglutination method, and the ascites was positive at 1/64000-128000 and 1/320000 respectively as measured by hemagglutination and radioimmunoass-ay.The B10 cell line is very stable and has very high activity to produce anti-HTGmonoclonal antibodies. After several times of preservation in liquid nitrogen andpassage in culture for one year,a recent determination shows that cell culture super-natant and ascites still have very high titer,being 1/4096 and 1/1048576 respectively asmeasured by hemagglutination method. The chromosome number of the B10 hybridomacell is 99.5?7.4.The success of the establishment of this cell line is briefly discussed.Attempt to establish diagnostic kit with this monoclonal antibody is being undertaken.
