Objective To explore the features of ostiomeatal complex under endoscopic observation,so as to provide reliable landmarks for a safe and perfect endoscopic sinus surgery.Methods Twelve heads from adult cadavers(8 males and 4 females) were split axially on midline with the nasal septum removed,and nasal endoscopic operation was performed for the observation of tristar of groove with professional surgical instruments on anterior ethmoid,frontal sinus and maxillory sinus.Results The tristar of groove was consisted of beak of the ethmoidal bulla and its prolonging process,apex of the uncinate process and anterior peak of the middle turbinate,at the region of frontal recess.The structures called meatal groove,uncinate groove and bullar groove were observed around the ethmoidal bulla and the tristar of groove located at their origination.Under endoscopic view these structures looked like a triangular clefts,so it was named.The cells of the meatal groove located anteromedially to the tristar,the cells of the uncinate groove were anterolateral and just inferoposterior to the meatal groove,those of the bullar groove superoposteriorly located to the cells of the uncinate groove.The ostia of these cells were constant and did not connect each other,their locations at the tristar of grooves were fixed relatively.Conclusion Tristar of grooves is a key area for endoscopic frontal sinusotomy.Due to the great structural variations,the constant landmarks,which can be seen under sinus endoscope,and the regular pattern of the nasal sinuses distribution are important and can guide the endoscopic sinus surgery.

To explore the effects of psychological behavior training on the physical stress level of submariners, 42 submariners were divided into two groups, namely experimental group and control group. The submariners in the former group received psychological behavior training for one week. The level of physical stress was determined after being asked to creep through water-filled torpedo launching tube before and after training. The results showed that the changes in physical stress level of subjects in the experimental group were significantly smaller than that of the control group(t=-3.421~-2.415, P

Objective To explore the influence of MMF on the presentation functions of in vitro cultured dendritic cells.Methods Bone marrow-derived dendritic cell progenitors from BalB/c mice were treated with MMF or without. The antigen-presenting capacities, antigen specific proliferation reaction, mixed lymphocyte reaction and antigen-specific hyporesponsiveness of T-cells were analyzed to investigate the influences of MMF on the presentation functions of dendritic cells.Results Treatment with MMF reduced the soluble antigen presenting capacities of DCs to T cells. The proliferation of syngeneic T cells co-cultured with MMF-DC was significantly depressed, and displayed a comparatively low level of MLR-sti- mulatory activity. The levels of T helper cells derived cytokines were depressed, too.Conclusion MMF has a suppressive influences on the antigen-presenting functions of in vitro cultured dendritic cells and promotes the tolerance-induction effect of DCp.

Objective To discuss the clinical values of 18 F-FDG imaging in screening of the recipients with liver transplantation.Methods By using positron emission tomography, 16 case of hepatocellular carcinoma and 21 case of hepatic cirrhosis with discompensation were subjected to 18 F-FDG imaging. The obtained images were fused with CT images. According to the result of the abnormal 18 F-FDG uptake in 18 F-FDG imaging and image fusion with CT imaging, extrahepatic malignant tumor was judged. The initial routine examinations showed no extrahepatic malignant tumor in these 37 cases , including primary extrahepatic carcinoma and extrahepatic metastasis of liver carcinoma.Results Among the 21 case of hepatic cirrhosis with discompensation, there were 5 cases of extrahepatic primary carcinoma and metastasis. In 16 cases of primary hepatocellular carcinoma, there were 7 cases of extrahepatic metastasis.Conclusion 18 F-FDG positron emission tomography imaging can find the extrahepatic carcinomas which can not be discovered by other examinations, which can provide more information for screening of the recipients undergoing liver transplantation.

Objective To evaluate the quality of different parts of agarwood formed by stimulation with biological induction method, thus to provide evidence for agarwood quality control. Methods The identification of agarwood and the determination of alcohol extracts from agarwood were achieved by the methods of Chinese Pharmacopeia. The determination of total chromones from agarwood was achieved by ultraviolet spectrophotometry(UVS), with aquilarone E as reference substance and 760 nm as the detective wavelength. Results The UVS method was stable within 5 h and the recovery rate was 95.71%(sR=2.09%). The average alcohol extract content of the outside part of the xylem of Aquilaria sinensis(Lour.) Gilg(part B) was 109.4 mg/g,which was higher than that (100 mg/g) of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia standard. The average content of total chromones was 15.73 mg/g. The rest identification results were accorded with the requirements of Chinese Pharmacopeia. The average alcohol extract content of the inside part of the xylem(part Z) was 47.6 mg/g, and the average content of total chromones was 2.66 mg/g. The rest identification results did not reach the requirements of Chinese Pharmacopeia. Conclusion The obtained part B of the agarwood meets the requirements of Chinese Pharmacopeia, while part Z has color changed and its quality has not yet reached the requirements. The results indicated that the biological induction method impacts Aquilaria sinensis xylem from outside to inside, and then the xylem grows into agarwood gradually.

Objective To establish a method for fingerprint analysis of amino acids from honey by high performance liquid chromatography ( HPLC). Methods Amino acids of honey were concentrated by 732 cation exchange resin, and then were treated by pre-column derivatization with phenyl isothiocyanate, with praline as control peak. The chromatography was performed on a Waters Symmetry C18 ( 250 mm × 4.6 mm × 5 μm) column, with acetonitrile ∶ water (4∶1) as mobile phase A and 30 mmol/L sodium acetate ∶ acetonitrile (355∶15, acetic acid adjusting pH value to be 6.5) as mobile phase B by gradient elution. The detection wave length was set at 254 nm. The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min. The column temperature was 40℃, and the injection volume was 5μL. Results Sixteen common peaks were shown in the fingerprint of 15 batches of honey samples. The similarity for 15 batches of honey samples was in the range of 0.910 ~ 0.996 . Conclusion The fingerprint detection method is simple, practical, reproducible and specific, and can provide certain reference for quality control of honey.

Objective To determine the structures of resistance transposons and muhilocus sequencing typing(MLST)in the vancomycin resistant enterococcus(VRE).Methods Twenty-one VRE strains were isolated from five hospitals in Hangzhou.The resistance to antimicrobial agents was determined by Etest.Polymerase chain reaction(PCR),conjugation,plasmid extract,transposon structures,pulse field gel electrophoresis(PFGE),muhilocus sequencing typing(MLST),and multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis(MLVA)were carried out.Results All of the 21 VRE strains harbored the vanA gene.These strains were divided into 10 PFGE types,7 sequence types(STs)and 5 MLVA types.All of these VRE strains were susceptible to linezolid and tigecycline.The vanA genes in two VRE strains were located in transposon Tnl546,and those in the other 19 VRE strains were located in transpeson Tnl546- like,with ISl485 inserted in vanXY.Vancomycin resistance of 1 8 VRE isolates was transferred by filter mating. All of these conjugants had a plasmid containing a molecular size of about 54 000 bo.Conclusions These 21 VRE strains were all caused by the vanA gene and divided into 7 MIST types.A novel trasnposon was detected.Most of these VRE isolates belonged to the clonal complex(CC17)by MIST,which was the hospital-adapted and pandemic VRE clonal complex.
