Objective To investigate the early fluid resuscitation of patients with traumatic shock.Method Two hundred and ninty-eight patients with traumatic shock were retrospectively analyzed.Survivors within 24 hours after admission were regarded as survival group and dead patients as dead group.The comparison was made in regard to injury severity score(ISS)and volume of fluid infusion and blood-transfusion between two groups within 24 hours after admission.At the same time,the comparison in respct of mortality between operation group and non-operation group was also made.Results Of the 298 patients,230(77.2%)survived and 68 (22.8%)died within 24 hours after admission.The ISS and the volume of fluid infusion and blood-transfusion in the dead group were significantly higher than those in the surviving group(P

Melanin is formed by oxidative polymerization of phenolic compounds,basically different kinds of melanin come from different organisms.DOPA melanin and DHN melanin have same physical and chemical characters although they have different biosynthetic pathway.DHN melanin is common in plant fungi and plays an important role on infection.The melanin accumulates in the fungal cell walls and prevents organic and inorganic molecules penetrating out,that insures appressorium's pressure and infection ability.This paper has reviewed the kinds and characters,especially discussed the role of melanin during pathogen infection based on our some research.

Objective To evaluate the effect of obesity on long-term prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) but without diabetes. Methods A total of 571 patients with ACS but without diabetes were included in a retrospective study. The patients were categorized as normal, overweight, and obese groups based on body mass index (BMI) levels. The mean follow-up time was 3 years. The ultimate events were major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), including primary ultimate events (sudden cardiac death and non-fatal myocardial infarction) and rehospitalization with unstable angina. Results The incidence of long-term MACE was 33.6%, and it decreased with the increase in BMI levels (P trend=0.031). Obese patients had a lower risk of MACE than their normal weight counterparts (HR=0.58; 95% CI, 0.37-0.91; P=0.016). After multivariable adjustment, the lower risk of MACE in obese patients remained significant (HR=0.60; 95% CI, 0.39-0.94; P=0.027). Conclusions In a population with ACS but without diabetes, obese patients had a decreased risk of cardiovascular events compared with normal weight patients. In concordance with the data in patients with diabetes or coronary heart disease, the present study has further suggested that obesity may play a protective effect on long-term prognosis in patients with ACS but without diabetes.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effect of lateral supramalleolar artery descending branch antidromic flap for the repair of soft tissue defects in the foot and ankle.

METHODSFrom May 2009 to October 2013,12 patients with soft tissue defects combined with tendon and bone exposure in the foot and ankle were treated by lateral supramalleolar artery descending branch antidromic flap for the repair of soft tissue defects in the foot and ankle, including 9 males and 3 females with an average age of 37.5 years old ranging from 19 to 58 years. Ten cases had the soft tissue defects in the dorsum of foot and 2 in the ankle. The defect area of soft tissue was from 11 cm x 9 cm to 8 cm x 5 cm.

RESULTSTwelve patients were follow-up for 3 to 12 months (averaged 7.3 months). The flaps of 9 cases were survived,the flaps edges of the other 3 cases were necrosis,and healed after dressing change. The flaps were slightly swelling without ulcer occurrence.

CONCLUSIONLateral supramalleolar artery descending branch antidromic flap can repairing the damage by one-stage operation with advantage of dissection easy,rich blood supply without sacrifice of major artery.

Ten glycosidic compounds were isolated from an ethanol extract of Machilus wangchiana by a combination of various chromatographic techniques including column chromatography over silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 and reversed-phase flash chromatography and HPLC. Their structures were identified by spectroscopic data analysis (IR, MS, and NMR) as icariside B1 (1), boscialin-3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (2), pisumionoside (3), isolariciresinol-9'-O-β-D-xylopyranoside (4), 5'-methoxyisolariciresinol-9'-O-β-D-xylopyranoside (5), lyoniresinol-9'-O-β-D-xylopyranoside (6), (E) -4-hydroxyphenylprop-7-ene 4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (7), (E) - 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenylprop-7-ene 4-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 --> 6) -β-D-glucopyranoside (8), 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenylprop-8-ene 4-O-β-D-xylopyraosyl-(1 --> 6) -β-D-glucopyranoside (9), and 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxyphenylprop-8-ene 4-O-α-L-rhamnpyranosyl-(1 --> 6)-β-D- glucopyranoside (10), respectively.

In this paper, NIRS (near infrared spectroscopy)-based total quality control system for the Tanreqing injection was introduced briefly. By analyzing and summing up the significance and difficulties, several important problems of the practical applications which need urgent solutions are proposed. And also the applicationprospect of NIRS is fully discussed and put forward in the end.

Objective To explore the prevalence and its influencing factors on mental disorders in older people after falling in a community from Guangzhou city. Methods 184 people over 60years of age had ever fallen within the past year in a community, were investigated by structured interview survey on their mental disorders in Guangzhou, with the impact of event scale(IES)and fear fall scale(FFS). Another 56 people over the age of 60 had never fallen at the same time were selected as controls. Data was analyzed by classification tree and logistic regression analysis.Results IES score showed that there were 8.2% older people suffering from PTSD after falling (average score 16.07 ± 9.52). People who were at older age, with either bad eyesight or hearing,having had injury or decreased activity had higher scores. Results from classification tree analysis showed that decreased activity and helped by others after falling were risk factors of PTSD while not having decreased activity was protective factor. FFS score showed that 58.2% of the older people suffering from FFS after falling(average score 22.29± 10.25), people who were at older age, having had bad eyesight or hearing, not living with spouse or children etc. had higher scores while Classification Tree Analysis showed that factors as decreased activity or older than 80 years of age were at risk of FFS. People who did not have decreased activity or their IES score was nine or lower were protective factors. Data from thc logistic regression analysis showed that raised by others after falling(OR=6.20,95%CI: 1.32-29.12)were risk factors of PTSD while older age(OR=4.62,95%CI:1.80-11.83; OR = 4.06,95%CI: 1.39-11.87), injury(OR= 6.26,95%CI: 2.60-15.09), higher IES score (OR=8.75,95%CI: 3.53-21.70; OR= 11.98,95%CI: 3.88-37.02)and decreased activity(OR=5.26,95%CI: 2.29-12.06)were risk factors of FFS. Conclusion There had been a high incidence of mental disorders after falling among the elderly. Older age and decreased activity were the risk factors in this study.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of the recombinant surface antigen 1 (rSAG1) in immunodiagnosis of toxoplasmosis. Methods Isopropyl β-D- 1 -thio-galaetopyranoside (IPTG) was used to induce the expression of recombinant plasmid pET28a-SAG1 of Escherich coli(pET28a-SAG1/BL21 ). The expression products (rSAG1) of pET28a-SAG1/BL21 were identified by Western blotting. The serum of mice infected with Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites, normal mouse serum and the serum from 10 toxoplasma gondii patients were used as primary anti-Toxoplasma gondii antibodies, and the rSAG1 gene products were identified by Western blotting, by which the diagnostic value of rSAG1 in Toxoplasmosis was compared. Results After induction and purification, rSAG1 protein was obtained and its relative molecular mass was 38.5 × 103. The fusion protein could be recognized by the serum of mouse infected with Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites, rSAG1 of expression products of surface membrane antigen SAG1 gene from Toxoplasma Gondii could be detected in 4 cases from 10 patients by Westem blotting.Conclusion The rSAG1 has a potential value in the immunodiagnosis of Toxoplasmosis.

Mycelial morphology are exploited a great influnence to the metabolites of fungi. The effect of the mycelial morphology on producing lycopene by Blakeslea tripora was investigated. The results indicated that pellets has little role on fermentation when adding kerosene and triton-x100, However, The content of lycopene in the medium reached to 98.6mg/L by adding Ig/L span-20, forming dispersed mycelia, which is 3 times of the control experiments.
