Objective:To evaluate the clinical significance of pattern visual evoked potential (P-VEP) parameters on amblyopic patients with normal-vision atfer pleoptic therapy. Methods:We investigated 60 amblyopic children (8-12 years old) who gained normal-vision atfer pleoptic therapy. hTese patients were assigned to a unilateral amblyopia group (40 patients)and a bilateral amblyopia group (20 patients). Another 20 healthy children served as a control group. All patients underwent a full initial ophthalmologic and orthoptic evaluation. P-VEP test was performed in all. Amplitude and latencies were analyzed and compared among groups. The latencies of P100 waves in the amblyopic eyes were used to generate a multiple linear regression formula from sex, ifrst treatment age, baseline visual acuity, and cycloplegic refraction. Results:hTere was no signiifcant difference in the mean levels of best-corrected visual acuity among groups (P>0.05). A signiifcant prolongation of the latency and a decrease of amplitude of P100 waves were observed in the unilateral amblyopia group and the bilateral amblyopia group compared with the healthy control group (P<0.05). Amplitude and latencies of the fellow eyes in the unilateral amblyopia group were abnormal compared with the healthy control group (P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the latencies of P100 waves were signiifcantly correlated with the ifrst treatment age, baseline visual acuity, and cycloplegic refraction (R2=0.52, P<0.05). Conclusion:Deifcits exist in the fellow eyes and in normal-vision eyes atfer pleoptic therapy. hTe delayed P100 latency is affected by the ifrst treatment age, baseline visual acuity, and cycloplegic refraction. Traditional amblyopic therapy may be not enough for vision function recovery.

Objective To evaluate the short-term outcome of side-to-side staple cervical esophagogastrostomy after esophagectomy. Methods The clinical data of 105 patients with esophageal cancer who were admitted to the Daping Hospital from January 2006 to March 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. Of the 105 patients, 97 received side-to-side stapled cervical esophagogastrostomy and eight received traditional hand-sewn end-to-end cervical esophagogastrostomy. Nine patients were selected from the 97 patients who received side-to-side stapled cervical esophagogastrostomy to conduct matched pair analysis. The efficacy of the two methods was analyzed using the t test. Results No postoperative death was observed. The mean operation time of side-to-side staple cervical esophagogastrostomy was (21 ± 3 )minutes (range, 15-30 minutes). Postoperative complications were observed in 16 patients, including pulmonary complications in seven patients, vocal cord paralysis in four patients, anastomotic leakage in three patients and anastomotic stricture in two patients. The mean anastomotic diameter of patients who received side-to-side staple cervical esophagogastrostomy was ( 3. 01 ± 0. 17 ) cm, which was significantly longer than ( 1.69 ± 0. 26) cm of patients who received traditional hand-sewn end-to-end cervical esophagogastrostomy (t =2. 093, P ＜0.05 ). Dysphagia occurred in two patients who received side-to-side stapled cervical esophagogastrostomy and in four patients who received traditional hand-sewn end-to-end cervical esophagogastrostomy.Conclusions Side-to-side stapled cervical esophagogastrostomy is simple, safe and effective for patients with esophageal cancer after esophagectomy. This technique could decrease the incidence of postoperative dysphagia and improve the pharyngo-esophageal motor function.

Objective Metabonomics method based gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS)were used to analyze the urine samples of patients with hyperlipidemic pancreatitis (HLP) to describe the characteristics of metabolism changes of HLP,identify potential biomarkers,and investigate the role of metabonomics study in the management of AP.Methods 24 patients of HLP and 40 age,sex matched volunteers were enrolled and their urine samples were collected.The urine samples underwent preparation,derivation and GC/MS analysis,Orthogonal-Projection to Latent Structures-Discriminant Analysis (OPLS-DA)were performed to detect the metabolic profile difference between the HLP and control group.Results HLP patients can be precisely distinguished from healthy controls.21 metabolites (credibility ＞ 700 ) were identified using the reference compounds available in the libraries of NIST and Wiley.It was identified that levels of nicotinic acid,aconitie acid,citric acid,hippurie acid,hydroxyphenylacetic acid,hydroxyphenylpropionicacid were decreased,while the levels of tryptophan,tyrosine,tyramine,16-hexadecanoic acid,18octadecanoie acid were increased.It was also suggested that there was change in tricarboxylic acid cycle and gut bacterial flora,as well as fat metabolism and metabolism of amino acid.Conclusions There are differences between healthy controls and HLP patients in the term of GC/MS metabolic profiling,and the biomarkers in the metabolites could be found through metabonomics analysis,and the mechanisms of the metabolic changes could be explored.It was noted that the research of metabolites in the urine samples may be a useful tool to help diagnose and understand the pathogenesis of HLP.Metabonomics analysis is a promising research method.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of medial iliosciatic plating via the Stoppa approach for complex acetabular fractures involving the posterior column.Methods Between February 2015 and February 2016,a total of 16 complex acetabular facture cases treated by the medial iliosciatic plate via the Stoppa approach were retrospectively analyzed in this study.This approach provided good exposure to a large region of the pelvis and acetabulum including pubis symphysis,pubic ramus,anterior and inner wall of acetabulum,quadrilateral surface,inner surface of posterior column,true pelvic margin,greater sciatic notch and sacroiliac articulation.The anterior and column was reduced and fixed by the anterior column plate and the medial ilioseiatie plate.The screw direction and angle were adjusted according to the intraoperative X-ray.Surgical time,amount of bleeding,and relevant complications were recorded.The reduction of the posterior column fracture was evaluated by Matta scoring system on the plain X-ray of the pelvic post-surgery,and functional outcomes of the hip joint affected were evaluated one year post-surgery by the Merle d'Aubigne-Postel scoring system.All the cases were followed for at least 12 months.Results The reduction and fixation of the posterior column was accomplished in all the 1 6 patients.The average surgical time was 165.5 min (range,130-270 min).The average blood loss was 1 245.6 ml (range,600-5 600 ml).Thc intraoperative infusionof concentrated red blood cells averaged 6 units.According to the Matta scoring system,anatomical reduction was achieved in 12 cases,satisfactory reduction in 3,and poor reduction in one.The patients were followed from 12 to 22 months.According to the Merle d'Aubigne-Postel scoring system,there were 11 cases of excellent and 3 cases of good,yielding a good or excellent rate of 87.5％.The average Merle d'Aubigne-Postel score was 15.8 (range,8-18).There were 1 case of external iiiac vein rupture and 1 case of bladder rupture.Both were repaired during surgery.Superior gluteal artery rupture was found in 1 case and surgical ligation of the artery was performed during surgery.Conclusion In the treatment of complicated acetabular fractures involving the posterior column,the medial iliosciatic plating via the Stoppa approach is safe and effective,because it can provide a safe and sufficient operative field for surgeons to reduce and fix the posterior column fractures,and it leads to satisfactory recovery of the patients with limited complications.

Objective To prepare the human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 peptide vaccine and explore the effect in vitro and in vivo. Methods (1) Prediction of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I restricted T cell epitopes by bioinformatics target at transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) and named by E7Pa, E7Pb, E7Pc separately. (2)In vivo, the C57BL/6 mice were divided into five groups with same amounts randomly after loading with TC-1 cells (HPV 16 positive tumor cells from C57BL/6 mouse), named as E7Pa + CpG,E7Pb + CpG,E7Pc + CpG (as experiment groups, and added 50 μg/ml E7Pa, E7Pb, E7Pc, respectively), CpG(as positive control group and added Con A with 12 mg/L final concentration) and blank control group (without any treatment). The T cell proliferation was detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay at different time points;the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) delivery method was used to test the cytolytie T lymphocyte (CTL) activity of mouse splenic lymphocyte in different ratio of effector cells and target cells (E:T);the related cytokines in tumor tissue and mouse peripheral blood were evaluated by real-time PCR and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), respectively. The tumor volumes were measured to contrast the therapeutic effect in different groups. Results (1) Three peptide named E7Pa, E7Pb, E7Pc were successfully preparated which had high affinity and specificity. (2) After vaccination of 24, 48, 72,96 hours, MTT results shown that the proliferation rate in E7Pa + CpG group were(131±32)%, (302±15)%, (552±28)%, (731±24)% individually, which were much higher than those in blank control [(72± 15) %, (120 ± 57) %, (176 ±41)%, (288±29)% ;P<0.01], and the other groups i. e. E7Pb + CpG,E7Pc +CpG and CpG groups all proliferated much higher than those in blank control group with statistic signification (P<0. 05), but there was no significant difference between groups(P>0.05);the LDH delivery assay showed that when the ratio of E:T was 100:1, the activity of CTL in the E7Pa + CpG group was most powerful than the other groups with statistic signification (P<0. 01). Meanwhile, the ratio of E:T was concentration-dependent. Compared E7Pb + CpG, E7Pc + CpG or CpG groups with blank control group, there were significantly difference(P<0. 05) ,while there was no significant difference between groups(P >0. 05). The mRNA levels of interferon γ (IFN-γ), interleukin-2 (IL-2) in tumor tissue and peripheral blood in E7Pa + CpG group were significantly higher than those in blank control group (P<0. 01), which was the similar results when compared E7Pb + CpG, E7Pc + CpG or CpG groups with control group (P < 0. 05), and without significant difference between groups(P > 0. 05). The tumor volumes were suppressed obviously in all the experiment groups, especially at the 60th days, the volumes in ETPa + CpG group were much smaller than that in blank control group with statistic signification (P < 0. 01),which was the similar results that E7Pb + CpG, E7Pc + CpG or CpG groups had difference than blank control group with statistic signification (P < 0. 05), and without significant difference between groups(P >0. 05). Conclusion The HPV16 E7 peptide target at TAP combination with CpG as a vaccine could treat effectively the HPV16 E7 positive tumor in experiment.
