A bacterium which can effectively degrade LAS (Linear Sodium Alkylbenzenesulfonate) was isolated from washing powder manufacturing effluent and was preliminarily identified as Corynebacterium jeikeium GZ6. The bacterium can degrade LAS up to till 700 mg/L, and the optimum pH, temperature and concentration of LAS are 7.0, 30℃ and 400 mg/L, respectively. The biodegradation rate can reach 98.7% after 24 hours'cultivation in the suitable conditions. Experiments also showed that some heavy metal ions such as Hg2+ , Co2+ , Cd2+ can differently inhibit the degradation of LAS.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and treatments of endometrioid carcinoma patients with preoperative diagnosis of endometrial hyperplasia.Methods From 2005 to 2010, 404 patients were diagnosed with endometrioid carcinoma after hysterectomy.Among these patients,44 of them were diagnosed atypical endometrial hyperplasia(AEH) preoperatively.Retrospectively analysis the characteristics of these patients with SPSS13.0.Results Among the 44 cases, all of them were grade G1 disease, and 39 of them received comprehensive staging surgery.14(32%)young cases preserved bilateral ovaries.9 cases(20%) were given adjuvant radiology.No recurrence was detected during the median follow up of 52 months.Compared to the premenstrual group, although no statistical difference was detected, more patients with risk factors of deep myometrium invasion(4/22 vs 1/22) and lymph-vascular space invasion(LVSI, 3/22 vs 0/22) in the postmenstrual group.Compared to the patients who diagnosed with endometrioid cancer(EC) preoperatively, there are more patients with grade G1(P=0.000), fewer patients received adjuvant chemotherapy(P=0.003) and fewer recurrence(P=0.019) in AEH group.Conclusions The endomtrioid cancer patients who diagnosed with atypical hyperplasia preoperatively have better prognosis.Hysterectomy with bilateral ovaries preserved is acceptable in young patients.Post menopause patients have more risk factors of deep myometrium invasion and LVSI.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the hospital infection rate and sites of patients in emergency intensive care(unit)(EICU),and provide basis for prevention and treatment of hospital infection.METHODS Patients who were hospitalized in EICU were investigated by retrospective study.RESULTS Among the hospital infection sites,(respiratory) tract was the most frequent one(65.63%),the next was urinary tract(28.13%),and the deep vein was the third(6.25%).The most common hospital infection bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus,Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii.CONCLUSIONS The analysis of the subjective and objective factors of hospital infection,and the acknowledge of relationship between nursing and hospital infection sites are(important) basis for hospital infection prevention and treatment.

Objective To determine the prognostic significance of positive peritoneal cytology (PPC) among patients with endometrial cancer and to find out potential risk factors for PPC in endometrial cancer.Methods Data were extracted from Peking Union Medical College Hospital between Jan 1 2005 and Dec 31 2010.Only those patients who had undergone a staging procedure were included.A total of 486 patients were identified.Statistical analyses were performed using Fisher`s exact test, Kaplan-Meier log rank, and Cox proportional hazards models.ResultsRate of PPC was 4.8% in endometrial cancer.Non-endometrioid endometrial cancer(P=0.000), stage Ⅲ/Ⅳ(P=0.000), deep myometrial invasion(P=0.001), and cervical stromal involvement(P=0.018) appeared to be risk factors for PPC in endometrial cancer.Univariate analysis revealed statistically difference in 5-year PFS (70.9% vs 90.0%) and 5-year OS (72.2% vs 96.0%).Progression-free survival and overall survival showedstatistically difference(P=0.005,P=0.000)between PPC and NPC endometrial cancer.On multivariate analysis, PPC remained no statistically difference in progression-free survival or overall survival(RR=3.812,95% CI 0.897-16.200,P=0.070;RR=3.426,95% CI 0.800-14.673,P=0.097).Conclusions PPC is not an independent risk factor in patients with endometrial cancer.Aggressive histology, FIGO stage, deep myometrial invasion and cervical stromal involvement are presumed to be associated with PPC in endometrial cancer.

Objective To investigate the high-risk factors of retroperitoneal lymph nodes metastasis (LNM) and the effect of lymph nodes metastasis on prognosis in patients with endometrial carcinoma (EC).Methods Retrospec-tive research was carried out from January 2005 to December 2010 to identify 289 endometrial carcinoma patients treated with retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy at Peking Union Medical College Hospital.The high-risk factors of retroperitoneal LNM and prognostic factors of this disease were studied.Results 1) The median age at diagnosis was 55 years old.Patients of stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ were 224 (77.5%), 13 (4.5%), 45 (15.6%) and 7 (2.4%), respectively.Two hundred and eighty-nine patients received pelvic lymphadenectomy, of that 30 (10.4%) patients were found the pelvic LNM.Ninety-six patients received periaortic lymphadenectomy, of that 11 (11.5%) patients were found the periaortic LNM.Twenty-one (7.3%) patients developed recurrent disease and 11 (3.8 %) dead.The median follow-up was 37 months and the median disease-free survival (DFS) was 34 months.2) In univariate analysis, the incidence of LNM significantly increased in patients with CA125 ≥ 35 U/mL preoperatively, non-endometrioid adenocarcinoma, low grade, deep myometrium invasion, diameter of tumor ≥ 2 cm, cervical stroma involvement, positive peritoneal cytology and vagina or parametrial involvement (P<0.05).In multivariate analysis, CA125 ≥ 35 U/mL preoperatively, low grade, deep myometrium invasion were the independent high-risk factors of LNM (P<0.05).3)The Kaplan-Meier analysis showed a significant difference between positive peritoneal cytology, vagina or parametrial involvement, appendix involvement, LNM and DFS (P<0.05).We also found a significant difference in the impact of non-endometrioid adenocarcinoma, low grade, deep myometrium invasion, positive peritoneal cytology, appendix involvement and LNM on overall survival (OS) (P<0.05).Cox regression analysis revealed retroperitoneal LNM is the independent prognostic factor of 5-year DFS (patients without LNM 92.1% vs patients with LNM 65.3%, P=0.002, 95% CI 0.078-0.552).We also found the trend that the 5-year OS was higher in patients without LNM than them with LNM, even though there was no significant difference(patients without LNM 96.1% vs patients with LNM 70.0%, P=0.086, 95% CI 0.039-1.238).Conclusions 1) there is a predictive value of low grade and deep myometrium invasion for EC patients with LNM.2)Patients with LNM have poorer prognosis than them without LNM.Therefore, patients with LNM should receive adjuvant therapy to reduce the risk of recurrence.

Objective To investigate the influence of factors related to metabolic syndrome(MS)on the outcome in subjects without diabetes mellitus in a community.Methods A two-year follow-up study was conducted in 885 subjects who were enrolled in the epidemiologic survey carried out in Pingliang Community, Shanghai in 2002.Oral glucose tolerance test,lipid prefde,blood pressure(BP),body mass index(BMI),waist and hip circumferences were measured.Results (1)The baseline of BMI,fasting plasma glucose(FPG),2h plasma glucose after glucose loading(2hPG),BP,triglyceride(TG)in the subjects with impaired glucose regulation(IGR)increased significantly as compared to those with normal glucose regulation(NGR)(all P

Objective To compare clinical outcomes in eyes with macula-off rhegmatogenous retinal detachments (RRD) with peripheral breaks managed by surgical protocols that result in either complete (CSFD) or partial subretinal fluid drainage (PSFD).Methods Following the clinical detection of a maculaoff RRD with peripheral retinal breaks,patients were offered the opportunity to enroll in the study,and those patients who signed the consent were evaluated for eligibility based upon the inclusion and exclusion criteria for this clinical study,and if fully eligible they were assigned prospectively to one of the two surgical designs (PSFD or CSFD,1∶ 1) using a random number table.Seventy-two eyes of 72 patients were enrolled and studied.Patients were treated with 25G plus vitrectomy,endolaser or transscleral cryopexy,either complete (n=36),or partial (n=36) subretinal fluid drainage,and 14％C3F8 (PFO) was used for intraocular tamponade.After surgery,all patients were kept in a supine position for 24 hours,and then in a clinically optimal position for 6-10 days.The study patients were examined at 1,3 and 6 months after surgery with thorough ophthalmic examinations.Macular optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging was acquired in 1 month.Anatomical and visual outcomes as well as intra-operative and postoperative complications of the two groups were compared.Furthermore,the persistence of subfoveal fluid in OCT images and the symptoms of distortion at 3 months were measured and recorded.The primary study endpoint of anatomic retinal reattachment for each group was based upon the 6-month time-point.Results The preoperative baseline characteristics between the two groups were not significantly different.The single-operation success rates were 88.9％ and 91.6％ respectively for the CSFD and the PSFD groups (x2 =0.158,P＞0.05).The mean best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at 6 month endpoint were 0.99± 0.52 minimum resoluation angle in logarithmic (logMAR) for the CSFD group and 1.07±0.34 logMAR for the PSFD group(t=0.580,P=0.564).The mean operative time was longer in the CSFD group (62.25± 4.32) minutes than that in the PSFD group (47.9 ± 5.0) minutes (t =0.580,P=0.564).seven of 29 (24.1％) phakic eyes in the CSFD group had lens injury during SRF drainage,and none of the 31-phakic eyes in the PSFD group sustained lens damage.Residual PFO was present in 6 of 36 CSFD cases (16.7％).Successful retinal reattachment after primary surgery was achieved in 33) PSFD eyes and in 32 CSFD eyes based upon OCT imaging at 1 month demonstrated reattached foveae with no residual subfoveal fluid.Among these patients,22 patients (62.5％) in the CSFD group and 23(69.7％) patients in the PSFD group reported distortion in the operated eye or/and a difference in image size between the two eyes at the 6 month visit (P=1.00).Conclusions Partial subretinal fluid drainage during pars plana vitrectomy for the repair of macula-off RRD with peripheral breaks is effective.The success rates are not statistically different.Additionally,PSFD procedures can simplify the surgery procedure,shorten operative time and,and to some extent,reduce the incidence of complications relevant to the CSFD approach.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of intravitreal ranibizumab (IVR) combined with vitrectomy in treating proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR).Methods This is a prospective non-randomized controlled clinical study.A total of 62 patients (70 eyes) who underwent vitrectomy for PDR were enrolled and divided into IVR group (30 patients,34 eyes) and control group (32 patients,36 eyes).IVR group patients received an intravitreal injection of 0.05 ml ranibizumab solution (10 mg/ml) 3 or 5 days before surgery.The follow-up time was 3 to 18 months with an average of (4.5± 1.8) months.The surgical time,intraoperative bleeding,iatrogenic retinal breaks,use of silicone oil,the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and the incidence of postoperative complications were comparatively analyzed.Results The difference of mean surgical time (t=6.136) and the number of endodiathermy during vitrectomy (t=6.128) between IVR group and control group was statistically significant (P=0.000,0.036).The number of iatrogenic retinal break in IVR group is 8.8 ％ and control group is 27.8％,the difference was statistically significant (x2 =4.154,P=0.032).Use of silicone oil of IVR group is 14.7％ and control group is 38.9％,the difference was statistically significant (x2 =5.171,P=0.023).The incidence of postoperative vitreous hemorrhage in 3 month after surgery was 11.8％ and 30.6 ％ respectively in IVR group and control group.The differences were statistically significant (x2=3.932,P=0.047).The 6 month postoperative mean BCVA of IVR group and control group have all improved than their preoperative BCVA,the difference was statistically significant (t=4.414,8.234;P=0.000).But there was no difference between the mean postoperative BCVA of two groups (t=0.111,P=0.190).There was no topical and systemic adverse reactions associated with the drug after injection in IVR group.Conclusions Microincision vitreoretinal surgery assisted by IVR for PDR shorten surgical time,reduces the intraoperative bleeding and iatrogenic retinal breaks,reduces the use of silicon oil and the postoperative recurrent vitreous hemorrhage.But there was no significant relationship between vision improvement and IVR.

Background Corneal chemical burn is one of blinding eye diseases.Previous therapies for corneal chemical burn is limited to certain extent.However,transplantation of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) for corneal diseases is drawing more and more attention.Objective This study was to observe the effect of rabbit ADSCs transplantation for ocular alkali burns and explore its mechanism.Methods Rabbit corneal stromal cells (CSCs) were isolated and cultured by suspended matrix method,and rabbit ADSCs were obtained and digested from inguinal fat tissue with enzyme digestion method (0.25％ trypsin) and identified by flow cytometry.CSCs cocultured with ADSCs,and CSCs-induced ADSCs were identified by double-label of with immunofluorescence and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR).Then induced or uninduced ADSCs were inoculated on amniotic membrane to prepared ADSCs-amnion patch.Corneal alkali burn models were established in the right eyes of 60 New Zealand rabbits by placing a filter paper with 1％ NaOH solution at the central cornea for 50 seconds.The models were randomized into the induced ADSCs+ amnion implanted group,the uninduced ADSCs + amnion implanting group,amnion implanted group and model group.Corneal opacification and neovascular area were examined and corneal inflammation was graded by slit lamp microscope 1 week,2 weeks and 1 month after surgery.The contents of CD45,interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) in corneal homogenate as well as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in aqueous humor were detected by ELISA assay.The use and care of experiment animals followed the Statement of ARVO.Results ADSCs showed the positive responses for CD105,CD29,CD44 with the positive rate 90.23 ％,88.56％ and 98.88％,respectively.CSCs was positively reactive for vimentin.The double-label staining was positive after coculture of CSCs with ADSCs.Hematoxylin-eosin stain exhibited that ADSCs grew well on the amnion.Corneal porcelain opacity and a lot of new blood vessels were seen in the model group,and corneal was clear in the induced ADSCs+ amnion implanted group 1 month after surgery.The inflammatory scores were 1.65 ±0.18,2.05 ± 0.17,2.68±0.25,2.90 ±0.18,and the areas of neovasculization were (10.59 ± 1.78),(22.58 ± 1.63),(37.98 ± 1.90),(45.37±1.65)mm2 respectively in the induced ADSCs+ amnion implanted group,uninduced ADSCs+ amnion implanted group,amnion implanted group and the model group.The inflammatory scores of 1 week,2 weeks,1 month after operation among the four groups had statistically significant differences (F =280.826,330.172,465.707,all at P =0.000),and the areas of neovasculization of 1 week,2 weeks,1 month after operation among the four groups had statistically significant differences (F=60.020,670.811,1 510.231,all at P =0.000),the inflammatory scores in the induced ADSCs + amnion implanted group were remarkably lower than those of the other groups,the areas of neovasculization in the induced ADSCs+ amnion inplanted group were smaller than those of the other groups (all at P＜0.01).In 1 month after surgery,the contents of CD45,IL-10,IFN-γ in cornea and VEGF in aqueous humor were statistically different among the groups(F =916.545,1 739.358,462.134,129.126,all at P =0.000).Compared with the uninduced ADSCs+ amnion implanted group,amnion implanted group and the model group,CD45 and IFN-γ contents were declined,and IL-10 content was elavated in the induced ADSCs+ amnion implanted group (all at P＜ 0.01).In addition,VEGF contents in aqueous humor were significantly lower than those in the other groups (all at P＜0.01).Conclusions Rabbit CSCs-induced ADSCs amnion patch transplantation is effective for the reconstruction of ocular surface after alkali damage probably by differentiation of ADSCs into epithelial-like cell after CSCs induced.Moreover,amnion can alleviate immuno-inflammatory response and suppress neovascularization.
