Extraintestinal manifestations (EIM) of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may affect multiple organ systems, with approximately 50% of IBD patients presenting with at least one EIM during the course of their disease, with cutaneous involvement being particularly common. Cutaneous manifestations can present in various forms. This paper reports a case of ulcerative colitis (UC) complicated with bullous pemphigoid (BP), aiming to enhance clinicians' awareness of skin lesions associated with UC.

Objective To analyze the current situation of unplanned reoperation in cardiac surgery and to discuss the management measures of unplanned reoperation.Methods The information of patients undergoing cardiac surgery in a class A tertiary comprehensive hospital during 2018-2022 was collected to analyze the incidence of unplanned reoperation,major ca uses,disease types,surgica l moda lities and Complications.Results A tota l of 3902 patients underwent surgery,of whom 73(1.87%)underwent unplanned reoperation.The main cause of unplanned reoperation was bleeding(50%).The disease types with the highest unplanned reoperation composition ratio were coronary heart disease(38.4%),and the disease types with the highest incidence were dilated cardiomyopathy(11.1%).The average hospitalization cost,the average length of hospitalization,mortality rate and medical dispute rate of patients who had unplanned reoperation were significantly higher than those who did not have unplanned reoperation,the difference was statistically significant(P=0.001).Conclusion The hospital should strengthen the perioperative management of cardiac surgery,focus on supervising disease types and surgical modalities with high incidence of unplanned reoperation,and strictly implement the system of operation classification and the system of reporting unplanned reoperation to ensure the quality of patient surgery.

Objective To test cross immune responses induced in rhesus monkeys immunized with the recombinant major outer membrane protein(rMOMP).Methods Six rhesus monkeys were divided into three groups:the group vaccinated with purified rMOMP and Freund's adjutants,the group vaccinated with Freund's adjutants only and the control group vaccinated with PBS.All of the rhesus monkeys vaccinated intramuscularly at 0,2,4 weeks.Two weeks after the last time,The IFN-γand Chlamydia-specific antibody titers in sera,which were determined by ELISA,lymphocyte proliferation assay were performed by MTT,and observ the delayed hypersensitivity and in vitro neutralization assays.Results The result of the monkeys immunized with rMOMP and Freund's adjuvant:the specific immune responses can be observed.The in vitro neutralization and lymphocyte proliferation assays were observed better in the same group.Conclusion After being vaccinated with rMOMP,the monkeys can develop strong and effective Chlamydia-specific cross immune responses.

[Objective] To observe the specific immune responses induced by the recombinant major outer membrane protein (rMOMP) vaccine against Chlamydia trachomatis E serotype in rhesus monkeys.[Methods] Six rhesus monkeys were equally divided into three groups:adjuvant and protein group vaccinated with purified rMOMP and Freund's adjuvants,adjuvant group immunized with Freund's adjuvants only,and control group immunized with phosphate buffer.All the rhesus monkeys were intramuscularly immunized in the triceps brachii for 3 times at a 2-week interval.Two weeks after the last vaccination,serum,vaginal wash and venous blood samples were collected from the rhesus monkeys,and lymphocytes were isolated from the blood samples.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to determine the specific IgG antibody and interferon level in sera and secretory IgA (sIgA) level in wash samples,and methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay to evaluate the proliferation of lymphocytes after stimulation with Chlaraydia trachomatis serotype E elementary bodies.Delayed hypersensitivity was observed in rhesus monkeys challenged by inactivated Chlamydia trachomatis serotype E elementary bodies.In vitro antibody neutralization assay was conducted with the serum from rhesus monkeys.Indirect immunofluorescenee was used to detect Chlamydia trachomatis in exfoliative vaginal cells from rhesus monkeys from week 1 to 10 after challenge with Chlamydia trachomatis.Data were statistically analyzed by using one-way analysis of variance and least significant difference (LSD) test with the SPSS 14.0 software.[Results] The adjuvant and protein group differed statistically from the adjuvant group and control group in the serum level of specific IgG antibody (1.718 ± 0.213 vs.0.841 ± 0.315 and 0.791 ±0.437,both P＜ 0.05),interferon ((1086 ± 121.730) ng/L vs.(409 + 53.440) ng/L and (162 ± 48.046) ng/L,both P＜ 0.05),lymphocyte proliferation index (7.012 ± 1.026 vs.4.473 ± 1.850 and 1A26 ± 1.104,both P＜0.01 ) and the diameter of nodus in delayed hypersensitivity assay ( ( 1 1 ± 2.134) mm vs.(3 ± 0.914) mm and 0,both P ＜ 0.01 ).After attack,the exfoliative cells kept positive for Chlamydia trachomatis in the adjuvant and protein group from week 1 to 5,and in the other 2 groups from week 1 to 10,but were negative in the adjuvant and protein group from week 6 to 10.[Conclusion] The rMOMP vaccine can induce a specific,protective,humoral and cellular immune response against Chlamydia tracbomatis in rhesus monkeys.

BACKGROUNDCytochrome P450 2A6 (CYP2A6) plays an important role in oxidation of nicotine and in activation of tobacco-related carcinogens. It has been suggested that individuals with defective CYP2A6 allele are at a lower risk of developing lung cancer. This study is to investigate the frequency of CYP2A6 gene deletion and the relationship of CYP2A6 genetic polymorphism with lung cancer risk in Chinese.

METHODSA case-control study which detected CYP2A6 genotype of 180 patients with lung cancer and 224 controls by PCR-based genotype assay was conducted.

RESULTSNo relationship was found between the frequency of CYP2A6 gene deletion and lung cancer risk. There was only one case of CYP2A6 del/del genotype in the controls. The frequency of CYP2A6 del allele was 13.8% in the controls, and 12.8% in lung cancer cases. The CYP2A6 del/del genotype was not found in lung cancer cases.

CONCLUSIONSThere is no difference in frequency of CYP2A6 gene deletion between lung cancer cases and controls.

BACKGROUNDTo investigate the relations between metabolizing enzymes' genetic polymorphism and lung cancer risk in Chinese, especially in heavy smokers.

METHODSCYP1A1, 2D6, 2E1 and GSTM1 genotypes were detected in 180 patients with lung cancer and 224 controls by PCR-based genotype assays.

RESULTSCYP1A1 variant allele, CYP2D6 wild allele, CYP2E1 A genotype, GSTM1-null genotype were found to be associated with lung cancer. The individuals who carried GSTM1-null genotype and one of the CYP1A1, CYP2D6, CYP2E1 'in risk' genotypes had a 2.24-2.69 fold increased risk of lung cancer. The heavy smokers had a significantly increased risk of lung cancer than the non-smokers who carried the same genotype of metabolizing enzymes. The heavy smoker who carried all the four 'in risk' genotypes of metabolizing enzymes had an obviously increased risk of lung cancer (OR=9.85, 95%CI=2.30-45.71).

CONCLUSIONSThe individuals who carry the 'in risk' genotype of metabolizing enzymes have an increased risk of lung cancer. It is positively associated with tobacco carcinogen dose.
