Objective: To investigate the first appearance and geographic distribution of hantaviruses in China. Methods: Some sequences of M segment of hantaviruses isolated in China were retrieved from GenBank. Some recently sequenced viruses which have not been registered in GenBank were obtained from authors who reported them. Program MEGA 3. 1 was employed for the phylogenetic analysis of the above virus sequences. Nucleotide divergence rates were estimated by comparing the closely related sister sequences isolated in the same geographical region at no less than a 5-year interval. Based on these calculated divergence rates, together with their isolating time and region, we explored the first appearance and geographic distribution of hantaviruses in China. Results and conclusion: The distribution of hantaviruses was in cluster, with Guizhou Province having the most subgenotypes. which supports the previous hypothesis that hantaviruses first appeared in Guizhou Province of China. A novel subgenotype virus was found in Anhui Province, indicating that it might be easier for the virus to have mutation in Anhui Province. We also found that Gou3 strain might be the earliest one to separate from a common ancestral strain; it is speculated that hantaviruses migrated in China about 315 years ago.

Analysis of the nature, tastes, channel distributions and effects of the frequently used herbal medicines in the prescriptions involved in the clinical literatures about treatment of gastric cancer published from 1988 to 2007 was made in the paper. The literatures were categorized into three types: 1) treatment of middle- and late-stage gastric cancer; 2) prevention and treatment of the recurrence and metastasis after operation; 3) Chinese herbal medicines combined with chemotherapy for enhancing efficacy and reducing toxicity. The most frequently used herbal medicines in the three literature types were qi-invigorating herbs, such as Atractylodes, Astragalus, Codonopsis, Glycyrrhiza and Ginseng, etc. The herbal medicines for promoting urination to subside swelling such as tuckahoe and Semen Coicis, etc were used more frequently than the herbal medicines for regulating qi such as dried orange peel and putchuck, etc, as well as for clearing away heat to remove toxin such as spreading hedyotis herb, Herba Scutellariae Barbatae, yangtao actinidia root, and Rhizoma Paridis, etc. From another angle, the most frequently used herbal medicines for the treatment of gatric cancer were those cold, warm and neutral in nature, sweet, bitter and pungent in taste, and distributed to spleen and liver channels.

AIM: To study factors affecting the stability of nylon monofilament for intraluminal middle cerebral artery occlusion in rats.METHODS:Successful rates and infarct volume of ischemic model were compared by polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) coated and silicon coated nylon monofilament intraluminal occlusion of middle cerebral artery under condition of ligation and without ligation of peterygopalatine artery.RESULTS:The successful rates were 60% and 53% in two groups under condition of ligation of peterygopalatine artery, and 20% and 27% in other two groups under condition of without ligation of peterygopalatine artery respectively. The intracranial length of nylon monofilament were about 7 mm in successful model and 4 mm in failure model. Animals in the PVA coated nylon monofilament group showed neurological dificit signs earlier, and had a significantly larger infarct volume at 12 hours of ischemia than those in the silicon coated group.CONCLUSIONS:The ligation of peterygopalatine artery is critical in the success of making this kind of ischemic model. The appropriate position of nylon monofilament entering crania and the good expansibility of PVA play an important role in occlusion of blood flow. Because of the relatively lower successful rate, a new substitute with unique quality, proper hardness and better elasticity needs to be explored in the future.

Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, treatment, and prognostic factors of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PNENs). Methods: From August 2004 to August 2016, the clinical data of 63 patients with PNENs in the Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, an affiliate of the Zhejiang University School of Medicine, were retrospectively analyzed. The data included age, gender, function, tumor location, tumor size, pathological characteristics, lymph nodes, metastasis, and treatment. Association of these factors with PNEN prognosis was proven by univariate analysis and multivariate analysis. Results: In our study, the patients' overall survival time was between 5 and 127 months; the median time was about 46.6 months. Moreover, the survival rates in three years and five years are 88.8％ and 84.1％ respectively. Univariate analysis showed that factors such as lymph node metastasis, liver metastasis, vascular invasion, TNM staging and pathological grading, and radical operation were associated with prognosis (P<0.05). We did not prove any of the factors to be an independent factor associated with poor short-term outcome by multivariate analysis. Conclusion: PNENs are rare low-grade malignant tumors with heterogeneity, which is why they can be erroneously diagnosed. AJCC TNM staging in 2017 and the WHO pathological classification in 2010 can actively guide the prognosis evaluation. The lymph node metastasis, liver metastasis,and vascular invasion affected the prognosis of PNENs. Patients with radical operation had improved prognosis.
