Shoot rot of Zizania latifolia and the first record of its pathogen Pantoea ananatis in China / 浙江大学学报（英文版）（B辑：生物医学和生物技术）

The aquatic grass Zizania latifolia grows symbiotically with the fungus Ustilago esculenta producing swollen structures called Jiaobai, widely cultivated in China. A new disease of Z. latifolia was found in Zhejiang Province, China. Initial lesions appeared on the leaf sheaths or sometimes on the leaves near the leaf sheaths. The lesions extended along the axis of the leaf shoots and formed long brown to dark brown streaks from the leaf sheath to the leaf, causing sheath rot and death of entire leaves on young plants. The pathogen was isolated and identified as the bacterium Pantoea ananatis, based on 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene sequencing, multilocus sequence analysis (atpD (β-subunit of ATP synthase F1), gyrB (DNA gyrase subunit B), infB (translation initiation factor 2), and rpoB (β‍-subunit of RNA polymerase) genes), and pathogenicity tests. Ultrastructural observations using scanning electron microscopy revealed that the bacterial cells colonized the vascular tissues in leaf sheaths, forming biofilms on the inner surface of vessel walls, and extended between vessel elements via the perforated plates. To achieve efficient detection and diagnosis of P. ananatis, species-specific primer pairs were designed and validated by testing closely related and unrelated species and diseased tissues of Z. latifolia. This is the first report of bacterial sheath rot disease of Z. latifolia caused by P. ananatis in China.

Risk factor analysis of perioperative complications in patients with radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer / 中华胃肠外科杂志

Objective@#To identify the risk factors of perioperative complications after radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.@*Methods@#A retrospective case-control study was performed. Case inclusion criteria: (1) patients undergoing radical gastrectomy (D2); (2) primary gastric cancer without distant organ metastasis confirmed by postoperative pathology; (3) no neoadjuvant chemotherapy before surgery. Patients with peritoneal tumor dissemination found during operation, undergoing palliative operation due to distant metastasis, and undergoing combined organ resection and those without complete clinicopathological data were excluded. According to the above criteria, 426 patients with gastric cancer at our department from January 2015 to June 2017 were included in this study. Of 426 patients, 285 were male and 141 were female with a mean age of (55.4±9.7) years. According to the "Japan Clinical Cancer Research Group (JCOG) classification criteria for postoperative complications of gastric cancer", patients with grade II and higher complications were classified as complication group, and patients with no complication or grade I complication were classified as non-complication group. Baseline data were compared between two groups. Associations of perioperative complication with gender, age, body mass index, preoperative routine laboratory test, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification, activities of daily living (ADL) assessment, past medical history as well as preoperative conditions (hypertension and/or diabetes), surgical resection procedure, incision type, operation time, intraoperative blood loss/body mass ratio were examined. Univariate analysis was performed using χ2 test and the Wilcoxon rank sum test to screen the statistically significant variables associated with perioperative complications. The significant variables were included in multivariate logistic regression analysis to identify risk factors of perioperative complication.@*Results@#Grade II or higher complications after surgery were developed in 97 patients (22.8%), which included anastomotic leakage in 18 cases (4.2%), postoperative bleeding in 9 cases (2.1%), abdominal abscess in 5 cases (1.2%), intestinal obstruction in 5 cases (1.2%), pancreatic leakage in 1 case (0.2%), and other adverse events in 59 cases (13.8%). Univariate analysis suggested that the gender, age, ADL, incision type, intraoperative blood loss/body mass ratio, and operation time were associated with perioperative complication (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that elder age (OR=1.033, 95% CI:1.013-1.053, P=0.013), incision type of laparotomy (OR=2.091, 95% CI:1.247-3.508, P=0.004), longer operation time (OR=1.004, 95% CI:1.001-1.007, P=0.001) and higher ratio of intraoperative blood loss/body mass (OR=1.100, 95% CI: 1.039-1.163, P=0.031) were risk factors for postoperative complications.@*Conclusion@#Attention should be paid to those cases with elder age, laparotomy incision, longer operation time and higher ratio of intraoperative blood loss/body mass, and perioperative management after gastrectomy should be improved.

Role of SIRT1 signaling pathway in endotoxin-induced acute lung injury in rats / 中华麻醉学杂志

Objective To evaluate the role of silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) signaling pathway in endotoxin-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in rats.Methods Ninety-six clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 4 weeks,weighing 160-180 g,were divided into 4 groups (n=24 each) using a random number table method:control group (group C),ALI group,ALI + SIRT1 agonist SRT1720 group (group SRT),and ALI + SIRT1 inhibitor EX527 group (group EX).ALI was induced by injecting lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 5 mg/kg (diluted to 0.5 ml with 0.9％ normal saline) in ALI,SRT and EX groups.SRT1720 10 mg/kg was injected via the tail vein,and 30 min later ALI model was established in group SRT.EX527 1 μg/kg was injected via the tail vein,and 30 min later ALI model was established in group EX.Blood samples were collected from the abdominal aorta at 6,24 and 48 h after LPS injection for blood gas analysis,rats were then sacrificed and lungs were removed for determination of wet to dry weight ratio (W/D ratio) and expression of SIRT1,nuclear factor kappa B p65 (NF-κB p65),interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-1β protein and mRNA (by Western blot or real-time polymerase chain reaction) and for examination of pathological changes of lung tissues (with a light microscope).Results Compared with groups C,PaO2 was significantly decreased,and PaCO2 and W/D ratio were increased at each time point after LPS injection in ALI,SRT and EX groups,the expression of SIRT1 protein and mRNA was significantly down-regulated,and the expression of NF-κB p65,IL-6 and IL-1β protein and mRNA was upregulated at each time point after LPS injection in ALI and EX groups,and the expression of SIRT1,NFκB p65,IL-6 and IL-1β was significantly up-regulated at each time point after LPS injection in group SRT (P＜0.05).Compared with group ALI,PaO2 was significantly increased,PaCO2 and W/D ratio were decreased,the expression of SIRT1 protein and mRNA was up-regulated,the expression of NF-κB p65,IL-6 and IL-1β protein and mRNA was down-regulated at each time point after LPS injection (P＜0.05),and the pathological changes were significantly attenuated in group SRT,and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above at each time point after LPS injection in group EX (P＞0.05).Conclusion Inhibited SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway is involved in endotoxin-induced ALI in rats.

Prevalence and molecular characteristics of Listeria monocytogenes in cooked products and its comparison with isolates from listeriosis cases / 医学前沿

This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and molecular characteristics of Listeria monocytogenes in cooked products in Zigong City, China. The overall occurrence of the L. monocytogenes in the ready-to-eat (RTE) shops and mutton restaurants surveyed was 16.2% (141/873). An occurrence of 13.5% was observed in RTE pork, 6.5% in RTE vegetables, and more than 24.0% in either cooked mutton or cooked haggis. Serotype 1/2b (45.4%), 1/2a (33.3%), and 1/2c (14.2%) were the predominant types. By comparing the clonal complexes (CCs) based on multilocus sequence typing (MLST) of the L. monocytogenes from cooked foods in Zigong City and 33 listeriosis cases from different districts of China, CC87, CC9, CC8, and CC3 were showed to be prevalent in cooked products and CC87 and CC3 were the first two frequent types in the 33 clinic-source strains. All CC87 stains harbored the newly reported Listeria pathogenicity island 4 (LIPI-4) gene fragment ptsA, and all CC3 strains possessed the Listeria pathogenicity island 3 (LIPI-3) gene fragment llsX. These may increase the occurrence of the strains belonging to CC87 and CC3 in listeriosis cases in China and also underline the risk of infection owing to the consumption of the cooked products from Zigong. ST619 (serotype 1/2b) harbored both llsX and ptsA, indicating a potential hypervirulent sequence type in Zigong.

Stent implantation for ruptured aneurysms complicated with hemorrhage:a risk factors analysis / 中国脑血管病杂志

Objective To analyze and investigate the risk factors for intraoperative and postoperative bleeding complications of stent implantation for ruptured intracranial aneurysms(from rupture to operation time ≤14 d). Methods A total of 249 consecutive patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH)treated with stent intravascular interventional therapy at the Department of Neurosurgery,Tangdu Hospital,the Second Hospital Affiliated to Air Force Medical University(the Fourth Military Medical University)from August 2014 to July 2017 were enrolled retrospectively.According to whether having intraoperative and postoperative bleeding complications,they were divided into either a hemorrhage complication group(n=33)or a non-complication group(n=216).The baseline data,clinical data,and aneurysm characteristics,including age,sex,hypertension,Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS)score,aSAH to the patients were documented and analyzed,and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for bleeding complications. Results (1)The incidence of perioperative bleeding complications was 13. 3% (33 /249). (2)There was significant difference in GCS scores between the bleeding complication group and the non-complication group (P < 0. 05). There were no significant differences in age,male,hypertension,and aSAH to operation time between the two groups (all P >0. 05). (3)There were significant differences in Hunt-Hess grade (χ2 = 10. 392,P = 0. 001),Fisher score (χ2 = 7. 370,P =0. 007),number of aneurysms (χ2 = 4. 825,P = 0. 028),and aneurysm location (χ2 = 6. 818, P = 0. 033)between the bleeding complication group and the non-complication group. There were no significant differences in Raymond grade between the two groups (P > 0. 05). (4)Taking the occurrence of bleeding complications as a dependent variable,a further multivariate logistic regression analysis on Hunt- Hess grades Ⅲ-Ⅴ and multiple aneurysms was performed after variable screening,the results showed that Hunt-Hess grades Ⅲ-Ⅴ(OR,3. 658,95% CI 1. 660 -8. 061)and multiple aneurysms (OR,2. 667,95% CI 1.178-6.036)were the independent risk factors for stent placement in the treatment of bleeding complications of ruptured intracranial aneurysms(all P <0.05). Conclusions The single stent and stent-assisted coils can be used for endovascular treatment of rupture intracranial aneurysms,but preoperative Hunt-Hess grades Ⅲ-Ⅴ and multiple aneurysms are easy to cause perioperative bleeding complications in patients with aSAH.
