Objective To evaluate the performance of nested PCR in the detection of different fungi in paraffin wax embedded tissues. Methods Forty-four tissue samples were resected from rats infected with Fonsecaea monophora, patients with chromoblastomycosis, sporotrichosis or penicilliposis marneffei followed by preparation of paraffin wax embedded tissue sections for pathological examination and DNA extraction. Nested PCR was performed by using specific primers targeting the ribosomal DNA of Fonsecaea, Sporothrix and Penicillium marneffei, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of nested PCR were analyzed and compared with those of pathological examination. Results The nested PCR showed positive results in 8 of 20 samples from rats with chromoblastomycosis, 7 of 10 samples from patients with sporotrichosis and all of the 10 samples from patients with penicilliposis marneffei, but not in the control samples. In the detection of Fonsecaea,Sporothrix schenki and Penicillium marneffei, the sensitivity was 40% ,70% and 100%, respectively, and the specificity was consistently 100%, for the nested PCR. Pathological examination revealed fungal elements in 95%, 70% and 80% of the corresponding samples, respectively. Conclusion Detection of fungal DNA in paraffin wax embedded tissue by nested PCR can be applied to the diagnosis of deep mycosis, especially to the diagnosis of penicilliposis marneffei.

Objective To evaluate the prognosis and management of recurrent primary clear cell carcinoma of liver (PCCCL).Methods 214 patients with PCCCL treated by curative resection from January 1996 to March 2006 were retrospectively studied.Tumour recurrences were classified into early (≤1 year) and late (＞1 year) recurrences.Results Of 99 patients who developed recurrences,28 developed early recurrence while 71 developed late recurrence.The patients with recurrences were treated with re-resection (n=33),percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI,n=7),radiofrequency ablation (RFA,n=10),transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE,n =27),systemic chemotherapy (n=1),Chinese medicine (n=1),and conservative management (n=20).The re-resection rate was higher in the late than in the early recurrence group (P=0.04).In this study,reresection,PEI,and RFA were considered as curative therapies.There was no significant difference in the overall survival (OS) for patients who received these different curative therapeutic procedures (P=0.68).The 1,3-,and 5-year OS of patients with recurrences who were treated with curative treatment were comparable to those patients who did not develop recurrences (100％,86.0％,63.5％ vs 85.2％,72.2％,64.3％,P=0.71).The 1-,3-,and 5-year OS of patients who received TACE for recurrences were 100％,66.7％,and 44.4％ respectively.The results were poorer than patients who received curative treatment for recurrences (P=0.03),but were better than those who received conservative management after recurrences (80.0 ％,25.0 ％,and 10.0 ％,P＜ 0.01).Conclusions Reresection,PEI and RFA are optimal curative methods for recurrent PCCCL.TACE plays an important role in the management of patients with recurrent PCCCL who cannot be treated with curative methods.

Objective: To investigate the incidence of CMV infection(CMV-I) and CMV related diseases (CMV-D) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells transplantation in 70 consecutive allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells transplantation(allo-HSCT) patients and to search for the optimal prophylactic strategy.Methods: Blood samples were monitored using the CMV pp65 antigenemia assay.Of the 70 patients observed,30 patients with chronic myeloid leukemia［CML:CP(27),AP(2),BC(1)］,12 with acute myeloblastic leukemia(AML),10 with acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL)and other cases were NHL(3), AA(5), MDS(7), SCLC with pancytopenia (1),CLL(1), and MF (1). Sixty six patients received HLA - identical siblings transplantation and four received tranplants from their HLA- haploidentical donors. Seventy cases included allo-PBPCT (64 cases) , allo-BMT (4 cases) and allo-PB+BMT (2). Before transplantation, all patients and donors received CMV serological examination except 4 pairs of donors/recepients. All 66 patients (3 cases were CMV IgM positive) and 64/66 donors were CMV IgG positive. Results：After transplantation, 64/70 patients developed CMV viremia during monitoring period. Forty three of 70 patients developed CMV-D.Thirty five of them suffered from CMV-associated interstitial pneumonia(CMV-IP). The high peak levels of CMV antigenemia were associated with development of CMV disease　. Close correlation was found between acute graft vs host disease(GVHD) and CMV disease. The patients were followed up for 2 to 24 months. The patients who received preemptive therapy(group A)had significantly better outcome than CMV disease group(group B, P=0.0001). Conclusions: The results suggest that CMV antigenemia has high predictive value for subsequent CMV disease and CMV pp65 antigenemia -guided early therapy has particular advantage for avoiding morbidity and mortality caused by CMV disease.

OBJECTIVEThis is to introduce a method for vagina reconstruction using the expanded labia minora flap.

METHODSTwo tissue expanders were implanted in the labia minora bilaterally and expanded slowly over 4 weeks. In the operation, the expanded labial tissue was advanced as a bipedicle flap to line the reconstructed vagina. Five patients were treated with this method. Postoperative stent placement and dilation resulted in a vaginal canal exceeding 8 cm in depth.

RESULTSDuring the follow-up of 6 months to 2 years, four of the five patients got married. The vulva exhibited almost indistinguishable appearance. The reconstructed vagina had sensory and secretary functions. Its morphology and depth well meet the physiological demand.

CONCLUSIONSThe modified method of tissue expansion vaginoplasty using the labia minora bipedicle flap is a good option for vagina surgery. The reconstructed vagina possesses the anatomical and physiological resemblance.

In order to establish the stable andreliable ISSR-PCR System of Lysimachia christinae, L16 (4(5)) orthogonal design, which based on 7 levels of single factor experiment, were used in this study. The variance analysis was carried out by SPSS 19.0, and 5 main factors affecting the reaction system were optimized in 4 levels. The best annealing temperature was selected by the optimized reaction system. And the stability and reliability of this system was tested by 23 samples from different origins. The results showed that the five factors (DNA template, primer, dNTP, Mg2+ and Taq enzyme) were the most impacts on the amplified results of ISSR-PCR of L. christinae. The order of the influence was: primer > Taq enzyme > DNA template > Mg2+ > dNTP. The optimal system, which was determined by multiple comparison on different levels of each factor, was total volume of 25 microL, including DNA template 60 ng, primer 0.3 micromol x L(-1), dNTP 0.2 mmol x L(-1), Mg2+ 1.8 mmol x L(-1), Taq enzyme 1.25 U. The optimal system was stable and reliable tested by 23 samples from different origins. This study lays the foundation for genetic diversity analysis, fine varieties selection and molecular identification of L. christinae, and provides reference for optimization on ISSR-PCR system of other speciesin future.

With the establishment of HPLC and LC-MS methods to determine the related substances and the content of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in ipratropium bromide aerosol products, several packing material-related impurities were identified, including antioxygen BHT and antioxygen 2246. Results showed that these leachable additives from the packing materials may present at a relative high level in the drug solution, and the low content of API in the drug products is usually due to the adsorption of the packing material as well as the leaking of contents. The current available assay methods for the control of ipratropium bromide aerosol products are often lack of specificity and unable to assure the drug quality effectively. To meet the increasing attention on the regulations of drug packing materials, our research would be a pilot study, indicating that the inappropriate packing materials could cause the migration and adsorption of the active ingredients, and the importance to have compatibility studies between packing materials and drugs.
