    The patient was a 50-year-old male. He underwent total gastrectomy with complication ablationof the greater omentum for gastric cancer. We used composition absorbent materials toprevent adhesion(seprafilm_)at closing of the abdominal wall. When he consulted our hospital forabdominal pain after 7 months later, we diagnosed the patient as having adhesive ileus. Severalhours later, he demonstrated abdominal swelling and fell into shock. Therefore, we performedurgent abdominal surgery. There were large quantities of cacosmia ascites and no adhesion exceptat only one point between the bottom of the previous wound and the small intestine. Weconfirmed strangulation ileus that had turned the small intestine with 360°dextroversion centeringon the adhesion point and the superior mesenteric artery root. Because most of small intestinehad become swollen and necrotized, we performed wide small intestinal resection with about 60cmsmall intestines survived. Currently we are following the patient with at-home intravenous hyperalimentationafter two further reoperations. At the time of the first operation, we had applied seprafilm. This patient had a very late case of strangulation ileus, because there was almost noadhesion. This case represents a rare r side effect reports, involving shock, infection developingafter the use of seprafilm

    Lassa virus (LASV)—a member of the family Arenaviridae—causes Lassa fever in humans and is endemic in West Africa. Currently, no approved drugs are available. We screened 2480 small compounds for their potential antiviral activity using pseudotyped vesicular stomatitis virus harboring the LASV glycoprotein (VSV-LASVGP) and a related prototypic arenavirus, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV). Follow-up studies confirmed that CP100356 hydrochloride (CP100356), a specific P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitor, suppressed VSV-LASVGP, LCMV, and LASV infection with half maximal inhibitory concentrations of 0.52, 0.54, and 0.062 μM, respectively, without significant cytotoxicity. Although CP100356 did not block receptor binding at the cell surface, it inhibited low-pH-dependent membrane fusion mediated by arenavirus glycoproteins. P-gp downregulation did not cause a significant reduction in either VSV-LASVGP or LCMV infection, suggesting that P-gp itself is unlikely to be involved in arenavirus entry. Finally, our data also indicate that CP100356 inhibits the infection by other mammarenaviruses. Thus, our findings suggest that CP100356 can be considered as an effective virus entry inhibitor for LASV and other highly pathogenic mammarenaviruses
