Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) is a molecular genotyping method based on nucleotide sequencing. The procedure of this method characterizes isolates of bacterial species using the DNA sequencing of multiple housekeeping genes(usually seven). For each housekeeping gene, the different sequences present within a bacterial species are assigned as distinct alleles.For each isolate, the alleles at each of the loci define the allelic profile or sequence type (ST). MLST has the advantages of being robust (based on genetic data) and electronically portable to generate data that allow rapid and global comparisons between different laboratories. In this paper, the principle, method, data analysis, application, advantages and flaws of MLST are introduced.

Background Experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis(EAU)is proved to be an organ-specific,T lymphocyte-mediated autoimmune and self-limited disease.Research showed that CD4+CD25+T cell may play important regulation on the course of events,but its mechanism is pending for further study. Objective Present study was to investigate the potential role of CD4+CD25+T cell in the pathogenesis of EAU. Methods Retinal Santigen(S-Ag)was isolated from bovine retinas according tO the procedure as Caspi's previously describe.0.1 ml Santigen(50μg)emulsified with complete Freund'S adjuvant was injected on footpad of 24 inbred adult female Lewis rats aged six to eight-week-old to induce EAU,and 4 normal Lewis rats were as normal control group.Slim-lamp examination was performed to observe the ocular manifestation.Retinal section was prepared in 7,12,15,21 days aher injection for the pathological examination.The pathological grading was on the lnoki'S method.The retinas,inguinal nodes and spleens of rats were obtained in 7,12,15,21 days after injection and the cellular suspension was prepared.Expression of CD4+CD25+T cells on cellular suspension was assayed using flow eytometry.This study complied with the Standard of Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology. ResuRs The obvious inflammatory response of the anterior segment was found in S-Ag injected eyes from 7 days through 21 days.The most serious inflammation was found in 12-15 days under the slim-lamp.The hemotoxylin and eosin staining showed the higher pathological grading from 12 to 15 days after injection,showing significant difference in comparison with 7 days and 14 days(P=0.000).In EAU model rats,expressions of CD4+CD25+T cells was significantly increased in retinas, inguinal nodes and spleens in 15 days after injection,showing evidently differences in comparison with control rats(P=0.000). Conclusion The expression level of CD4+CD25+T cells in inflammatory tissue is associated with the inflammation procedure in EAU model rats.This study indicates that CD4+CD25+T cells may play a role in the development of EAU.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the early diagnosis of primary duodenal carcinoma and its outcome after surgical procedure.
METHODSTwenty-two patients with primary duodenal carcinoma treated operatively between 1983 and 1997 were analyzed retrospectively. Eleven patients complained of epigastric pain and discomfort, 5 jaundice, 4 nausea and vomiting and 2 epigastric fullness. The correct diagnosis rate for endoscopy was 90.0% (9/10), for duodenography 86.7% (13/15), for ultrasound examination 33.3% (4/12) and for computerized tomography (CT) scanning 58.3% (7/12), respectively. All of the 22 patients received surgery including pancreaticoduodenectomy (12 patients), segmental resection (4) and bypass operation (gastrojejunostomy and cholecystojejunostomy or cholangiojejunostomy) (6).
RESULTSPrimary duodenal carcinoma was characterized nonspecifically, and the correct diagnosis was based on endoscopy and duodenography. The follow-up rate of this group was 86.4% (19/22). The 1-, 3-, 5-year survival rates of patients receiving radical resection (n = 16, 1 patient lost follow-up) were 86.7% (13/15), 46.7% (7/15), and 26.7% (4/15), respectively. The 5-year survival rate of patients receiving pancreaticoduodenectomy was 27.3% (3/11), and the 5-year survival rate of patients having segmental resection was 1/4. No patient (n = 6, 2 lost follow-up) with primary duodenal carcinoma treated by bypass procedure survived more than one year. There was a significant difference between patients receiving radical procedure and bypass operation (chi(2) = 6.84, P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONRadical resection might improve the survival of patients with primary duodenal carcinoma.

Objective To explore the effect of recovery sleep on the executive function after 36 h of total sleep deprivation by event related potential technology.Methods Thirteen healthy male college students participated in two trials. At the first trial normal sleep as control was investigated. At the second trial participants experienced 36 h of sleep deprivation and then accepted 8 h recovery sleep. In each trial six Go/Nogo tests were employed to test the executive control function and the ERP data were recorded. Results There was no statistical difference in behavior and ERP results at each time point as the subjects had normal sleep. After 36 h of sleep deprivation, the behavior results were statistically significant when compared to the baseline. The amplitude and latency of Nogo-N2, Nogo-P3 on Fz electrode, the amplitude and latency of Nogo-P3 on Cz electrode showed statistical significance when compared to the baseline. After 8 h recovery sleep, the average correct reaction time and the Go correct reaction rate had statistical significance compared to 36 h value. The amplitude of Nogo-N2 and Nogo-P3 had no statistical significance compared to the baseline.However,it was of statistical significance[(-6.80 3.95)vs(-3.37 2.63)μV,(10.63±6.62)vs(5.63±5.45)μV,(9.49±7.37)vs(6.08±6.56)μV] compared to 36 h value. The latency of the recovery value of Nogo-N2 and Nogo-P3 was statistically significant[(254.14±15.55)vs(243.08±13.97)ms(382.14±41.07)vs(349.17±30.36)ms,(369.86±26.48)vs(347.48±29.24)ms]compared to the baseline.Conclusion As the time of sleep deprivation is prolonged, the executive function is impaired and the executive function is not completely recovered after 8 h recovery sleep.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinicopathologic factors related with recurrence and prognosis after surgical resection for anorectal melanoma.
METHODSThe clinicopathologic factors related to recurrence and prognosis of 50 patients with anorectal melanoma after surgical resection were retrospectively analyzed using univariate and multivariate methods.
RESULTSForty-seven patients underwent radical operation, including 31 abdominoperineal resection (APR) and 16 sphincter preserving operation. The local recurrence rates were 16.1%(5/31) and 68.8%(11/16) respectively. chi(2) analysis revealed that operation pattern was associated with local recurrence rate. The 5-year survival rate was 18.2%. Univariate analysis revealed that single tumor, intramural infiltration and operation pattern were related with prognosis. Multivariate analysis revealed that intramural infiltration was the most important prognostic factor for anorectal melanoma.
CONCLUSIONSThe prognosis of anorectal melanoma is poor. Early diagnosis and treatment are important for the improving of curative effect.

OBJECTIVETo discuss the impact of number of retrieved lymph nodes and lymph node ratio(LNR) on the prognosis in patients with stage II and III colorectal cancer.
METHODSClinicopathological data of 507 patients with stage II and III colorectal cancer were analyzed retrospectively. Follow-up was available in all the patients.
RESULTSThe total number of retrieved lymph nodes was 5801, of which 1122 had metastasis. There was a positive correlation between metastatic lymph nodes and retrieved lymph nodes(r=0.171, P<0.01). In stage II colorectal cancer there was a significant difference in 5-year survival rate between patients with more than 12 lymph nodes retrieved and those with less than 12 lymph nodes retrieved(P<0.01). LNR also affected the 5-year survival rate of patients with stage II and III colorectal cancer(P<0.05). In patients with similar LNR, the 5-year survival rate differed significantly among different regions of lymph node metastasis(P<0.05). LNR influenced the prognosis independent of the number of lymph nodes retrieved.
CONCLUSIONSThe number of retrieved lymph nodes is a prognostic factor for stage II and III colorectal cancer. More than 12 lymph nodes should be retrieved for better staging and prognosis. LNR is also a prognostic factor in stage II and III colorectal cancer. Regions of lymph nodes metastasis should be considered when evaluating the prognosis of patients using LNR.
