Objective To study pre-thrombosis state in patients with cor pulmonale and analyze the value of treatment with low molecular heparin (LMH). Method 46 patients with cor pulmonale were divided into LMH group and routine one. Von Willebrand factor (vWF), prethrombin F 1+2 fragment (F 1+2 ), Fibrinogen (Fg), granule membrane protein (GMP-140) and D-dimer fragment (DD) were detected separately.Result The concentrations of WF,F 1+2 ,Fg,GMP-140 and DD in the patients with cor pulmonale were significantly higher than control. In LMH group, these variables and PaCO 2 decreased and PaO 2 increased markedly after treatment. In routine group, these blood-gas index slightly improved, but no decrease were observed in coagulation variables. Conclusion Early detection and diagnosis of pre-thrombosis state in patients with cor polmanate and timely treatment with LMH can be beneficial to these patients during acute state.

Objective To elucidate the molecular basis for induced resistance of N. gonorrhoeae to ceftriaxone in vitro. Methods The reference strain ATCC49226 and clinical isolate ZSSY00205 of N. gon-orrhoeae were exposed to subinhibitory concentration of ceftriaxone for the induction of resistance. Then,suppression subtractive hybridization was performed with the pre-induction parent strains as drivers and post-induction mutant strains as testers to create a subtractive cDNA library. Following that, a total of 192 clones were randomly selected from the library, and arrayed by spotting onto nylon membranes. Finally, dif-ferentially expressed genes were screened by hybridization with labeled-RsaI restriction fragments from the sensitive and resistant N.gonorrhoeae strains respectively, and analyzed by sequencing and homology research using Blast program. Results A subtractive library for these resistant N.gonorrhoeae strains was generated by SSH technique. Microarray analysis and homology research confirmed 5 genes related to ceftriaxone resistance, i.e. mtrR, mtrC, gyrB, rpsJ and PJD1. Conclusions The induced resistance of N. gonorrhoeae to ceftriaxone may be associated with mtrR, mtrC, gyrB, rpsJ and PJD1 genes which probably mediate the resistance by enhancing the activity of efflux pump system.

Objective To investigate the incidence, clinical patterns, and species distribution of pathogenic fungi of onychomyeosis in patients with chronic viral hepatitis (CVH), and to analyze the relationship between onychomycosis and CVH. Methods From November 2005 to October 2006, direct microscopy and fungal culture were performed on nail samples from CVH patients with clinically suspected onychomycosis in the two largest institutions for communicable disease control in Guangzhou city. The incidence, clinical patterns, and species distribution of pathogenic fungi of onychomycosis were assessed based on the findings in mycologic examinations. Results The study randomly recruited 995 patients with CVH, and onychomycosis was diagnosed in 116 patients. The incidence of onychomycosis was 11.66% in total, 6.20%, 8.59%, 14.09%, 19.67% in patients with mild, moderate, severe and extremely severe CVH respectively, 7.09%, 17.29%, 19.13% and 27.27% in patients with a clinical course of CVH of 0.5-9 years, 10-19 years, 20-29 years, ≥30 years respectively. The most common clinical pattern was distal and lateral subungual onychomycosis (DLSO, 69.83%), followed by total dystrophic onychomycosis (TDO, 14.66%). Among the pathogenic fungi, dermatophytes amounted to 71.43%, yeasts 21.43%, moulds 7.14%, and Trichophyton rubrum was the most frequently isolated fungus (42.86%). Conclusions The incidence of onychomycosis in patients with CVH is correlated with the severity and course of CVH. Among these patients, the most common clinical pattern is DLSO with the most frequent fungal species being dermatophytes and predominant fungal isolate being Trichophyton rubrum.

Objective Ginger (Zingiber officinale) is widely used as a spice in cooking and as a medicinal herb in traditional herbal medicine. The present study was to investigate the analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities of ginger oil in experimental animal models. Methods The analgesic effect of the oils was evaluated by the acetic acid and hot-plate test models of pain in mice. The anti-inflammatory effect of the oil was investigated in rats, using rat paw edema induced by carrageenan, adjuvant arthritis, and vascular permeability induced by bradykinin, arachidonic acid, and histamine. Indomethacin (1 mg/kg), Aspirin (0.5 g/kg) and Dexamethasone (2.5 mg/kg) were used respectively as reference drugs for comparison. Results The ginger oil (0.25-1.0 g/kg) produced significant analgesic effect against chemically- and thermally-induced nociceptive pain stimuli in mice (P < 0.05, 0.01). And the ginger oil (0.25-1.0 g/kg) also significantly inhibited carrageenan-induced paw edema, adjuvant arthritis, and inflammatory mediators-induced vascular permeability in rats (P < 0.05, 0.001). Conclusion These findings confirm that the ginger oil can be used to treat pain and chronic inflammation such as rheumatic arthritis.

Objective To investigate the relationship between various loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) margin status and residual high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) or worse at hysterectomy following conization. Methods The relevant clinicopathological data were collected in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Fudan University from Jan. 2014 to Dec. 2015, including 947 cases who underwent hysterectomy within 6 months of LEEP. The residual HSIL or worse at hysterectomy were analyzed among the groups. (1) Clear margins, involved margins, and without 1 mm negative margins. (2) Only one positive margin, two positive margins and three positive margins. (3) A positive margin of internal ostium of cervix, of external ostium of cervix and of the basement. Results (1) The histological evaluation of the uterine specimens showed residual HSIL or worse in 234 cases (24.7%, 234/947). The proportion of residual lesions was 7.3% (21/286) in population with clear margins, 33.2% (211/635) with involved margins, 7.7% (2/26) without 1 mm negative margins, respectively. The positive margins group had significant difference at the aspect of residual rate in contrast to the negative margins group and the without 1 mm negative margins group (P<0.01). Further studies conclusively showed that the proportion of residual lesions was very similar between the negative margins group and the without 1 mm negative margins group (P>0.05). (2) The involved margins were interpretable in 621 cases. This was detected in 25.3%(111/438) patients with only one positive margin, 47.4%(74/156) with two positive margins and 77.8%(21/27) among three positive margins, respectively (P<0.01). (3) Furthermore, there were 418 cases only one positive margin was definite, and the proportion of residual lesions was 31.0%(62/200) in population with a positive margin of internal ostium of cervix, 18.2%(31/170) of external ostium of cervix and 33.3%(16/48) of the basement. The residual rates were higher in the endocervical and basal margin groups than that in the ectocervical margin group, and the differences were significant (P<0.05). Conclusions The risk of residual HSIL or worse is significantly greater with involved margins at hysterectomy following LEEP. Both the positive endocervical and basal margin are excellent predictors of residual diseases, while the without 1 mm negative margin may be not. Clinicians should avoid treating it as positive margin and prevent overtreatment.
