Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects and toxic effects of radiochemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in patients with advanced gastric cancer after gastrectomy.Methods A total of 183 patients with stage Ⅱ-Ⅳ (M0) gastric cancer,who received treatment after gastrectomy from 2004 to 2010,were included in the study.Of the 183 patients,64 received radiochemotherapy after gastrectomy,and 119 received chemotherapy alone after gastrectomy.The survival rates and hematological and gastrointestinal toxic effects were compared between the two groups;survival difference was also analyzed after the patients were stratified by TNM stage,number of metastatic lymph nodes,and extent of lymph node dissection (D0,D1,and D2).The Kaplan-Meier method was used for calculating survival rates,and the log-rank test was used for survival difference analysis and univariate prognostic analysis;the chi-square test was used for comparing toxic effects between the two groups.Results The follow-up rate was 87.8％ ;72 patients were followed up for at least 3 years,and 29 patients for at least 5 years.The 1-,3-,and 5-year survival rates for the radiochemotherapy group were 86％,62％,and 55％,respectively,as compared with 77％,53％,and 43％ for the chemotherapy group (P =0.079).There were no significant differences in grade 3-4 hematological and gastrointestinal toxic effects between the two groups (P =0.363 and 0.617).The univariate analysis showed that radiochemotherapy had a significantly better survival benefit than chemotherapy alone in patients with stage ⅢB-Ⅳ (M0) gastric cancer,patients who underwent D0 lymph node dissection,and patients with more than 6 metastatic lymph nodes (P =0.022,0.025,and 0.021).Conclusions Compared with chemotherapy alone,radiochemotherapy tends to improve survival in patients with gastric cancer after gastrectomy,and its toxic effects are tolerable.The patients with stage ⅢB-Ⅳ (M0) gastric cancer,patients who undergo D0 lymph node dissection,and patients with more than 6 metastatic lymph nodes can benefit from radiochemotherapy.

OBJECTIVESTo investigate the correlation between mutation of GyrA and ParC genes and quinolone resistance in Neisseria Gonorrhoeae.

METHODSThe gene fragments of quinolone resistance-determining region (QRDR) in GyrA and ParC genes in 20 Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains clinically isolated in Wuxi, China, were sequenced, and the susceptibility of the 20 strains to quinolone was examined by agar diffusion method.

RESULTSThe mutations at the Asp95 point in GyrA gene were found in 20 strains. Of the 19 stains examined, 16 had mutations at the 86, 87, 88, 91 points in ParC genes.

CONCLUSIONSThe mutations of Asp95 in GyrA gene and Asp86, Ser87, Ser88, Glu91 in ParC gene contribute to quinolone resistance in Neisseria Gonorrhoeae.

OBJECTIVETo investigate nephroprotective effects of a mixture of 8 L-amino acids on renal ischemia-reperfusion injury and its effects on renal endothelin-1 (ET-1).

METHODSThe mixture of 8 L-amino acids includes glycine, alanine, threonine, serine, valine, leucine, isoleucine and proline. Acute ischemic renal injury was induced by clamping renal pedicle for 45 minutes in rats. Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: a sham-operated group (Group A, n=8), a control group (Group B, n=26) and an amino acid-treated group (Group C, n=26). Amino acids were infused at a rate of 1 ml x 100g(-1) x h(-1) I hour before ischemia and during 3 hours of the whole reperfusion. The serum creatinine values, BUN levels, creatinine clearance, urine sodium and potassium excretion, urine lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), the rate of urine flow and histological examination were measured. Renal ET-1 levels were assayed with radioimmunological assay (RIA) RESULTS: The creatinine clearance was 471.0 microl/min+/-121.5 microl/min in Group C and 227.0 microl/min+/-27.0 microl/min in Group B 3 hours after reperfusion, P<0.01). The urine flow rate was 63.6 microl/min+/-15.2 microl/min in Group C and 24.3 microl/min+/-7.7 microl/minin Group B, P<0.01) 1.5 hours after reperfusion. The serum creatinine was 85.0 microl/min+/-7.7 micromol/L and BUN concentration 11.4 mmol/L+/-3.9 mmol/L in Group C and 112.7 micromol/L+/-19.5 micromol/L and 20.7 mmol/L+/-6.6 mmol/L respectively in Group B after 24 hours of reperfusion (P<0.05). The mean histological score by standards of Paller in kidneys was 108.7+/-15.7 in Group C, and 168.8+/-14.8in Group B (P<0.01). The renal ET-1 levels 15 minute and 3 hours after reperfusion were 7.2 pg/mg+/-0.8 pg/mg and 9.6 pg/ml+/-1.0 pg/ml in Group C, and 10.1 pg/ml+/-2.8 pg/ml and 13.0 pg/ml+/-2.7pg/ml in Group B (P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONSThe mixture of 8 L-amino acids can provide remarkable protection against renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats. This may associate with attenuation of renal ET-1 disorder.

Objectives To explore the characteristics of status and different populations of prehospital death associated with acute coronary events among young adults in Beijing.Methods Data of acute coronary events of hospitalization or death were obtained from the Hospital Discharge Information System from Beijing Public Health Information Center and Death Register System from Beijing Center for Disease Control in Beijing.The total case fatality rate of acute coronary events and proportion of prehospital coronary heart disease (CHD) death were compared upon gender,area,occupation and marital status among people aged between 25-45 years old.Results A total of 3489 cases were identified during 2007 to 2009 with acute coronary events ( male:3183,female:306),with a mean age of (40.5 ± 4.3 ) years old.The 3-years' overall mortality was 26.0％,with female's higher than male's (51.0％ vs 23.6 ％,P ＜ 0.05 ) ; and it was higher in rural area than in urban areas (28.9％ vs 22.9％,P ＜0.05).Ninety-five percent of death due to acute coronary events occurred prehospital,with the proportion of 95.2％ in male and 94.2％ in female. Among the people with different occupations, self-employed people had the highest rate of prehospital death.Majority of prehospital deaths (64.8％ ) occurred at home.Conclusion More than 90％ of deaths caused by acute coronary events among young adults aged between 25-45 years old occurred before been admitted into hospital,and the site of prehospital deaths was mainly at home.

Objective To analyze alterations in electrocardiogram (ECG) of adenosine test in 99Tcm-MIBI myocardial perfusion imaging(MPI)SPECT study. Methods A total of 641 patients were in cluded in the study. The patients each underwent 99Tcm-MIBI MPI with adenosine test. The ECGs were taken before, during, and after adenosine infusion. Results In all, abnormal ECGs were found in 205(32.0%) patients. During adenosine infusion, 20.6%(132/641) of patients suffered from arrhythmia,29.5%(39/132) had atrial premature beats, 34. 1% (45/132) had premature ventricular beats, and 6. 1% (8/132) had sinoatrial block. In addition, 5.3% (7/132) had first-, 24.2% (32/132) had second-, and 0.8%(1/132) had third-degree atrioventricular block (AVB). After adenosine infusion, 4.4%( 28/641) of patients suffered from arrhythmia, 57.1% (16/28) had atrial premature beats, 39.3%(11/28) had premature ventricular beats, and 3.6% (1/28) had sinoatrial block. The perfusion images showed ischemia in 36 patients and infarction in 8 patients. Adenosine infusion was terminated in 39 patients (6. 1%) because of poorly tolerated side effects. However, no death or acute myocardial infarction occurred in the study. Conclusions Adenosine pharmacologic test for 99TcmMIBI MPI may result in relatively high incidence of arrhythmia in ECG monitoring.

The aim of this study was to investigate the virulence determinants and genetic diversity of foodborne Yersinia enterocolitica from Wenzhou.A total of 71 strains of Yersinia enterocolitica were isolated from food and foodborne diarrhea ca-ses in Wenzhou,and their biotypes,serotypes,and drug resistance were analyzed.On the basis of whole genome sequencing,we assessed virulence gene profiles,and performed multilocus sequence typing(MLST)and core gene multilocus sequence typ-ing(cgMLST).A total of 94.4％(67/71)of isolates belonged to biotype 1A,and the highest proportion had serotype lA/O∶5(29.6％,21/71).The sensitivity rates of the isolates to 14 antibiotics exceeded 95.8％.A total of 16 categories and 126 viru-lence genes were identified,with two strains carrying the pYV plasmid and chromosome-related virulence genes.ST3(31.6％,12/38)was the most widespread MLST type,and cgMLST analysis revealed no dense clusters of genotypes except for strains sharing the same ST.In conclusion,pathogenic strains were identified from foodborne Yersinia enterocolitica in Wenzhou and were found to exhibit high genetic polymorphism.Enhanced regulatory supervision is essential to prevent the outbreak of food-borne diseases caused by Yersinia enterocolitica.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the presence of Cosmc gene mutation in children with Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) and the association between Cosmc gene mutation and the susceptibility to HSP.

MESULTSEighty-four children who were diagnosed with HSP between March 2014 and December 2015 were selected as the HSP group. Fifty-eight healthy volunteers matched for age and sex were enrolled as the control group. Fasting venous blood (5 mL) from the two groups was collected in EDTA anticoagulated tubes, followed by the isolation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) through density gradient centrifugation. Genomic DNA was extracted from PBMCs according to the manufacturer's protocol, and the whole exon region of Cosmc gene was amplified by touch-down polymerase chain reaction (touch-down PCR). The PCR products were identified by 1% agarose gel and sequenced in order to further examine the association between Cosmc gene mutation and the susceptibility to HSP.

RESULTSSequencing results showed two mutations (c.393T>A and c.72A>G) of Cosmc gene in children with HSP. There were no significant differences in the genotype and allele frequencies at the two loci between the HSP and control groups, and this distribution was not associated with sex.

CONCLUSIONSThe mutations c.393T>A and c.72A>G in the exon region of Cosmc gene in children with HSP are not associated with the onset of HSP.

OBJECTIVESTo assess the impacts of public health interventions on the outbreak of SARS in Beijing by analyzing the intervals between symptom onset, hospital admission and notification of its cases.

METHODSData of SARS cases reported from the Beijing Municipal Centers for Disease Prevention and Control (BCDC) were collected and analyzed by descriptive epidemiology.

RESULTSIn the early epidemic period, the intervals between the disease onset and the hospital admission seemed irregular, so was the intervals between the hospital admission and the notification. After the middle ten days of April, the intervals turned out to be more regular, and the disordered situation in terms of the hospital admission and the case notification was gradually brought under control.

CONCLUSIONSPublic health interventions against SARS has revealed positive impacts on SARS control program in Beijing. The timing and sensitivity of epidemic information reporting systems has been greatly improved in Beijing as a result of successful fight against this disease.
