According to the cultivation objectives of the plant-productive specialities, the teaching contents and methods, testing forms and experimental teaching of the course of General Microbiology have been re-formed. The reformation includes integrating, retrenching and updating the teaching contents, strengthening the fundamental knowledge, improving the classroom teaching methods and communicating in and after class in order to arouse the student’s interest and greatly spurs student’s initiative. The testing forms were also reformed to comprehensively evaluate the student’s ability of mastering and managing the knowledge. Through the reinforcement of the basic technical and scientific research training in the experiments, good teaching results have been achieved.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and characteristics of imaging,cerebral hemodynamics and electrophysiology of septic encephalopathy in children.Methods The clinical data and examination result of computerized tomography(CT),ultrasound and electroencephalogram(EEG) on encephalon of the 44 consecutive children with septic encephalopathy from Jan.2003 to Jun.2006 were reviewed retrospectively.According to the prognosis and the etiology,the totally 44 patients were divided into survival group,death group and pneumonia group,enteritis group,septicemia group,appendicular perforation group,skin gangrene group as well as EBV infection group,respectively.Fi-sher′s exact test was used to compare the differences of ratio.Results 1.Clinical manifestations:loss of consciousness was observed in all 44 cases,convulsions in 29 cases,upper-right-limb paralysis in 1 case,cerebral hernia in 1 case,and 14 cases resulted in death.2.Forteen cases were detected by CT scanning.Multiple local and diffuse lower density in cerebral parenchyma was observed in 3 cases and 2 cases respectively.Intracranial hemorrhage was found in the latter 2 cases.3.Color doppler ultrasound was detected in 11 cases.Diffuse brain edema was found in 5 cases,and among them intracranial hemorrhage was found in 1 case.4.EEG was detected in 10 cases.Flat-to-isoelectric EEG was found in 3 cases.Diffuse slow wave activities and sharp wave with sharp-slow wave complex were found in 5 cases and 2 cases,respectively.5.Between the sharp wave group and the flat-to-isoelectric EEG group,the number of cases who was less than 7 with Glasgow coma scale was significant(P

Objective To discuss the cause,treatment and prevention of splenic injury during the urological surgery.Methods The clinical data of 16 cases with splenic injury in operation for renal and adrenal tumors in 496 cases were retrospectively analyzed.Nine cases were left radical nephrectomy,3 cases were left renal hamartoma enucleation,4 cases were left adrenal tumor resection.Damage located at outer edge of the spleen in 8 cases,the splenorenal ligament in 6 cases,and the splenic hilum in 2 cases.In these 16 cases,14 patients spared the spleen (Ⅰ Grade injury 8 cases,Ⅱ grade 6 cases).The injuryed spleen was directly pressed with hemostatic gauze in 3 cases; 5 patients used coagulation,bonding,hemostatic gauze to stop bleeding; 2 cases of grade Ⅱ injury used U-shaped suture and coated with fibrin glue,then compressed with hemostatic gauze to stop bleeding; 2 cases of grade Ⅱ injuries with the greater omentum stitched into the seam,sprayed biological glue,were compressed with gelatin sponge; 2 cases of grade Ⅱ injury underwent splenic artery branch ligation.The other 2 cases (1 Ⅱ grade and 1 Ⅲ grade) underwent splenectomy.Results All of the 16 patients were cured and followed up for 6 months to 5 years.There was no delayed bleeding of spleen and splenic dysfunction.One patient died of tumor recurrence 6 months after operation.Conclusions Splenic injury is a common complication during urological surgery,especially the tumor is large or adhered to spleen in the upper pole of left kidney.Once spenic injury occurs,doctors should choose the right treatment plan according to surgical injury,and try to save the spleen.

Objective To study the expression of caspase-3,survivin,CyclinD1 and P27 in gastric carcinoma(CA2)and the relationship between the biomarkers and clinical pathological parameters. Methods Immunohistochemical Ready-to-use two-steps method was performed to research the expression of the four proteins in 72 cases of GC,and 54 cases of normal gastric mucosa.Results The expression level of caspase- 3 and p27 protein in GC was significantly lower than that in normal gastric mucosa(P

Objective: To identify choroideremia and retinitis pigmentosa(RP)using next-generation sequencing(NGS)technology. Methods: A cross-sectional study was adopted.The participants were two pedigrees that was suspected of RP in previous hospital treatments in He Eye Specialist Hospital between January 2017 and December 2018.The relevant medical and family history were collected, and the family tree was plotted.The visual acuity, intraocular pressure, fundus photography, electroretinogram(ERG), B-mode ultrasond, visual field, color vision, optical coherence tomography(OCT), and slit lamp assessment were performed on all subjects.Target region sequencing and Sanger sequencing were performed, deletion insertion of large fragments was verified by real-time quantitative PCR.This study followed the Helsinki Declaration and was approved by the Ethics Committee of Shenyang He Eye Hospital(NO. IRB[2017]k002.01) Results: Two known pathogenic mutations were identified in CHM gene: EX9 DEL and c. 715C>T.Furthermore, the clinical diagnosis of choroideremia was confirmed.The Family 1 proband Ⅱ1 with the EX9 DEL hemizygous mutation had a special clinical phenotype, "Star" small piece intact choroid was visible in the macular fovea of both eyes.The patients in pedigree 2 carried the pathogenic mutation c. 715C>T, the proband Ⅲ1 carried a hemizygous mutation and the reddish island area in the fovea macula was seen in both eyes.The mother Ⅱ2 and grandmother I2 of proband carried heterozygous mutations, the degree of fundus atrophy was lighter than that of the proband Ⅲ1, the fundus had a mottled appearance, the optic disc boundary was clear, the blood vessel thickness was moderate, and the exposed choroid was visible in the fundus atrophy area. Conclusions This study is the first to identify two known pathogenic mutations in CHM gene, EX9 DEL and c. 715C>T in Asian Manchu and Han populations.The clinical phenotypes of female carriers with the c. 715C>t pathogenic mutation are different from those of male patients.The NGS technology may become a powerful tool to distinguish choroideremia from RP.

Objective To investigate the number and activities changes of peripheral blood endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients,and explore the connection between EPCs' number and the levels of advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs),homocysteine (Hcy) and C-reactive protein (CRP).Methods Twenty-five CAPD patients and thirty healthy volunteers were involved.Total mononuclear cells (MNCs) were isolated from peripheral blood of patients.EPCs were characterized as adherent cells by double staining of FITCUEA-1 and DiL-AcLDL binding,and were further demonstrated by positive cells of CD34,CD133 and KDR using flow cytometry.The abilities of cell proliferation,adhesion and migration were further observed by fluorescent microscope.The correlations between the CEPCs' number and the levels of AGEs,Hcy and CRP were analyzed.Results The number and activities including migration and adhesion of EPCs in CAPD group were significantly lower than control group (P ＜ 0.05).The levels of serum AGEs,Hey and CRP in CAPD patients were increased (all P＜0.05) and had negative correlation with EPCs' number.Conclusions The number and activities of EPCs decrease in patients with CAPD,and EPCs' number is negatively correlated to the levels of AGEs,Hcy and CRP.

To investigate the dynamics of interleukin-21 (IL-21) cytokine in the Chinese HIV patients undergoing highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAAPT).Methods A total of 25 adults with chronic HIV infections,responding to combined highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) guideline criteria were enrolled for a 1-year follow-up.After signing an informed consent,20 mL blood was collected from each patient at the base line,6 month and 12 month,respectively.CD4 and CD8 cell count was quantified by flux cytometry,serum HIV RNA quantified by real time PCR and IL-21 concentrations by ELISA.Results IL-21 levels increased gradually during the follow-up but did not reach the healthy levels.IL-21 correlated positively with the CD4 cells but not with CD8 T cells.HIV RNA correlated negatively with CD4 cell count but did not show any relationship with the CD8 cells.Conclusion IL-21 has potential role in the immunopathogenesis of HIV,and might be an important factor in immune construction during HAART.
