ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare the clinical results of different endovascular thrombus reduction techniques in the treatment of acute lower extremity arterial thrombosis.Methods:The clinical data of 96 consecutive patients with acute femoral popliteal arterial thrombosis who were treated with catheter directed thrombolysis (CDT) and mechanical thrombus aspiration system (PMT) between Jan 2016 and Dec 2018 at Cangzhou People's Hospital and Peking University People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Ninty-six patients underwent thrombolytic surgery,including 36 with CDT thrombolysis, 28 with AngioJet aspiration alone and 32 with Rotarex aspiration alone. Angiojet thrombus aspiration reduced thrombus rate by 89.3% (25/28) and clinical success rate by 92.8% (26/28).The thrombus reduction rate of Rotarex group was 87.5% (28/32), and the clinical success rate was 96.8% (31/32). In the CDT thrombolytic group, the thrombolytic reduction rate was 61.1% (22/36), including 8 patients who underwent thrombectomy and 6 patients with PMT, with a clinical success rate of 86.1% (31/36). The rate of distal arterial embolization, puncture point and local subcutaneous hematoma and vascular rupture was 21.4%, 10.7% and 2.1%, respectively. There were no amputation cases reported during a mean 13 months follow-up.The survival rate was 97.9%. The first-stage patency rate of 67.8%, while the second-stage artery patency rate of 85.7% during the follow-up.Conclusion:Compared with CDT, PMT has higher efficiency and lower complication rate in the treatment of acute lower extremity arterial thrombosis.
ABSTRACT
The paper reviews the basic mechanism of photocatalytic oxidation, the kinds of photocatalyst, the characteristics of TiO2 and the commonly used carriers of TiO 2 photocatalytic oxidation in water treatment, the degradation of organic pollutants in water by photocatalytic oxidation and the applications of this new technique in tap water purification. The photocatalytic oxidation as a new technique of environmental protection is being much con-cerned widely.
ABSTRACT
Objective To establish the recombinant yeast estrogen system(RYES),a reporter vector controlled by estro-gen response elements(ERE)in yeast was constructed.Methods pLacZi-1RER was obtained first by inserting an ERE which was synthesized artificially into the yeast reporter vector pLacZi which had already been lined by SalI and the terminal dephos-phorized by CIAP.Then,pLacZi-zERE.was obtained by inserting another ERE into the XhoI site nearby the ERE in pLacZi-1ERE.Results Sequence analysis indicated that the yeast reporter vector controlled by two tandem copies of ERE was con-structed successfully.Conclusion The yeast reporter vector controlled by ERE,pLacZi-2ERE,was constructed successfully,which was the very important groundwork for further establishment of the recombinant yeast estrogen system(RYES).
ABSTRACT
Objective To study endocrine disruptor chemicals causing malformed frogs in an irrigation canal in T city and a pool in CH city. Methods Water samples collected from an irrigation canal in T city and a pool in CH city where malformed frogs were found were concentrated through H103 resin. The concentrated samples were purified and derivated. The endocrine disruptor chemicals in the derivatives were determined by GC/MS and the estrogenic activities in concentrated water samples were assessed by the recombinant yeast estrogen system (RYES). Results Endocrine disruptor chemicals bisphenol_A (5.6?10-3～1.52 ?g/L) and nonylphenol (0.46～0.58 ?g/L) were found in the concentrated water samples of the irrigation canal in T city and the pool in CH city. RYES showed that the estrogenic activities were positive and this result accorded with the data given by GC/MS. Conclusion The results indicated that the cause resulted in malformation of frogs in the irrigation canal in T city and the pool in CH city might be related to endocrine disruptor chemicals.
