Conclusion TCRM is the best choice in treating submucous myoma. The results of surgery were satisfactory to intramural myoma if gasp the indictions. Selecting proper indications for operation, B ultrasonic monitoring severity are important for ensuring the operation effect and safety.

Objective To explore the clinical significance of the three indicators combined detection that plasma endotoxin,pro-calcitonin (PCT)and (1,3)-β-D-glucan(BG)in pulmonary tuberculosis patients complicated with bacterial,fungal infection.Methods Retrospective investigation was conducted in 240 pulmonary tuberculosis patients,who were divided into gram negative bacteria (G- )group(39cases),gram positive bacteria (G+ )group(45 cases)including fungal,germ-free group(156 cases).Other 45 healthy people were selected into control group.The levels of plasma endotoxin,PCT and BG in the four groups were compared.Results The levels of plasma endotoxin(0.682±0.418)EU/mL,PCT(2.93±0.87)μg/L in the G- group were significant higher than those of the G+ group (0.063±0.034)EU/mL,(0.85±0.52)μg/L,the difference was significant (P <0.05).The levels of the plasma endotoxin,PCT in the G- group were higher than those of the germ-free group.The levels of plasma endotoxin,PCT and BG in the control group had no significant difference with those of the germ-free group.Conclusion The combined detection of plasma endo-toxin,PCT and BG have some clinical value on the early diagnosis of the patients with pulmonary tuberculosis complicated with G-fungal infection for the advantages of fast and sensitiveness.

ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between the expression of Dishevelled2 and Vangl2 and the embryonic neural tube defects (NTDs) induced by all-trans retinoic acid (RA)in Kunming mouse. Methods Fifty pregnant mice were randomly divided into control and RA-treated groups.RA-treated mice were fed with 30mg/kg RA dissolved with peanut oil on embryo 7.75 days, while the mice of control group were administrated with an equal volume of peanut oil on the same time. Then all the embryos were sampled from pregnant mice at the 4th, 18th, 42nd, 66th and 90th hour after treatment. In situ hybridization and immunohistochemical staining technique were used to detect the expression of Dishevelled2 and Vangl2 in embryonic neural tube. Results The two proteins both existed in the epithelial tissue of the mouse embryonic neural tube and displayed different expression modes at various developmental stages.Compared with the control group, the RA treated group showed a significant decrease (P≤0.05) at the 18th and 42nd hour and a significant increase (P≤0.05) at the 66th hour in Dishevelled2 protein after maternal treatment, and no significant difference was found at the 90th hour. Compared with the control group, the Vangl2 mRNA expression in the RA treated group displayed a significant decrease (P≤0.05) at the 4th and 18th hour and a significant increase (P≤0.05) at the 66th hour after RA treatment, and no difference was found at the 42nd hour. Compared with the control group, the expression of Vangl2 protein in the RA treated group decreased (P≤0.05) at the 18th and 42nd hour, and increased (P≤0.05) at the 90th hour after RA treatment, no difference was found at the 66th hour. Conclusion Excessive RA may interfere with the normal embryonic neural tube closure by regulating the expression of Dishevelled2 and Vangl2.

Objective To study the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of hand-foot-mouth dis-ease(HFMD)outbreaks in kindergartens,so as to provide reference for control and prevention of HFMD. Methods Papers published between 2009 and 2015 about HFMD outbreaks in kindergartens were retrieved from Wanfang database and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI),then collected papers were analyzed. Results Data about 39 cases of HFMD outbreaks were obtained,35 cases occurred in 2008-2012,1 case occurred respectively in 2007,2013,2014,and 2015. 33.34% and 23.08% of outbreaks occurred in May and April. Out-breaks lasted 5-52 days,with a median of 11 days,30.77% of outbreaks lasted more than 2 weeks. The attack rates of the whole kindergartens were 1.90% -39.74% ,attack rates of whole kindergartens were 5% -15% a-mong 65.79% of outbreaks,attack rate of whole kindergartens was >20% among 13.16% of outbreaks. 85.71%of outbreaks involved more than 20% of classes,25.71% of which involved all classes. Both EV71 and CoxA16 caused HFMD outbreaks in kindergartens,two kinds of viruses were both detected in some outbreaks;there were no significant difference in attack rate of whole kindergartens,attack rate of classes with highest incidence,class in-volving rate,and duration of epidemic between EV71 and CoxA16 epidemic groups(all P>0.05).Conclusion Once an HFMD outbreak occurred in a kindergarten,epidemic intensity would be high,both EV71 and CoxA16 can cause HFMD outbreak. There is no obvious correlation between class size and attack rate.

Objective To study the association between paternal CD3, CD4 and CD8 antigenecity to their pregnant spouses and the development of pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH). Methods Maternal serum from 15 women with PIH in the third trimester and 82 in normal pregnancies (16 in the first, 32 in the second and 34 in the third trimester) were incubated with paternal T lymphocytes. Monoclonal CD3, CD4 and CD8 fluorescent conjugated antibodies were then added and the percentage of paternal T cell differentiation antigen CD3, CD4 and CD8 were measured by flow cytometry. Results During normal pregnancy, the levels of maternal serum blocking antibodies on paternal CD3, CD4 and CD8 were (4.14?1.02, 2.02 ?0.24, 2.37?1.05)% in first trimester, (-0.29?0.13, 1.03?0.27, 0.65?0.23)% in the second trimester and (-1.33?1.47,0.15?0.01, -1.04? 0.37)% in the third trimester. There were significant difference between them( P

BACKGROUND:The hip is a complicated structure and irregular in shape. It is hard to measure stress distribution and transmission. OBJECTIVE:To establish a three-dimensional finite element model of the hip joint and upper femur, and analyze the stress distribution and transmission characteristics of the acetabulum region under different loads, and explore mechanics mechanism of hip fracture based on CT data. METHODS:The three-dimensional finite element hip and femur model were reconstructed in Mimics 14.0 based on the CT data of a healthy adult man. After dividing mesh, assigning material and transforming into finite element model, the stress distributions of anterior wal , the top, and the posterior wal of the acetabulum, the stress of acetabulum areas and displacement of acetabular unit were calculated with finite element software Ansys 13.0 software under 300, 600, 900 and 1 200 N. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) A three-dimensional finite element model of the hip and the femur was successful y established, consisting of 284 183 nodes and 160 665 units. (2) The characteristics of the stress distribution of acetabulum region:the maximal stress was concentrated on the posterosuperior part of acetabular crest, fol owed by the posterior wal and the anterior wal in order in upright position under different loads. The stress transmitted by four ways:from acetabular crest to ilium, along linea terminalis of pelvis to sacroiliac joint, in the acetabular sockets, and along the pubic ramus. The stress and the propagation distance were increasing as the loads increased. Acetabular element stress variable was increased. (3) Above results indicated that three-dimensional finite element model of the human hip joint established by Mimics 14.0 based on CT data matches the anatomical structure in a great degree, could be used in the biomechanics analysis under different loads, and has a guiding significance for design of artificial hip prosthesis.

Objective To detect the antibodies of streptococcal C5a peptidase from group B streptococcus(SCPB)in neonates,demonstrate the existence of SCPB antibody in pregnant women after natural group B streptococcus(GBS)infection,and provide clinical evidence for prevention of GBS infection. Methods Sera were collected from 107 neonates(80 term infants and 27 premature infant)between February 2007 and December 2007. The antibodies of SCPB were detected using ELISA method,and cultures of GBS were done simultaneously. Results 21(19.6%)newborns were found to be SCPB antibody positive(including 20 term infants and 1 premature infant),the difference of positive ratio between term and premature infant was significant(25% and 3.7%,respectively). Conclusions This study indicated that pregnant women could produce SCPB antibody by immune response,and transmitted it to the infants through the placenta. Further study is needed to clarify the effect of SCPB antibody in expectant mother and newborn with GBS infection.

Objective To investigate the predominant genotypes of β-lactamase in Klebsiella pneu-moniae isolates and the mechanism of antibiotic and histidine kinase inhibitor in affecting β-lactamase gene expression .Methods Tube dilution method and E-test were used to detect the susceptibility of K.pneumon-iae isolates to β-lactam antibiotics .The major genotypes of β-lactamase in β-lactam antibiotic-resistant iso-lates were identified by PCR and sequencing method .Disk diffusion test was performed to analyze the activity ofβ-lactamase .The effects of cefotaxime and histidine kinase inhibitor closantel on the expression of β-lac-tamase gene were evaluated by real-time fluorescent quantitative RT-PCR.Results All of the 118 β-lactam antibiotic-resistant K.pneumoniae isolates expressed β-lactamase, 90.7%(107/118) of which were KPC-2, TEM-1, CTX-M-14, SHV-11 and/or OXA-1 gene positive.The positive rates of TEM-1 (71.0%) and SHV-11 (64.5%) were significantly higher than that of the other three genotypes ( P<0.05).68.2%(73/107) of the isolates possessed two or more than two β-lactamase genotypes, and 30.8%(33/107) iso-lates were identified as TEM-1+SHV-11 genotype.Except for KPC-2 mRNA, the levels of TEM-1, SHV-11, CTX-M-14 and OXA-1 mRNA were significantly up-regulated by cefotaxime at MIC/4 (P<0.05), but were inhibited by 100μmol/L closantel (P<0.05).Conclusion TEM-1 and SHV-11 are the majorβ-lactamase genotypes carried by K.pneumoniae strains isolated from Zhejiang area , and TEM-1 plus SHV-11 ( TEM-1+SHV-11) is the predominant carrying mode of the β-lactamase genotypes .Sublethal dose of cefotaxime can enhance the expression of β-lactamase genes in K.pneumoniae, while the histidine kinase inhibitor , closan-tel, can block the increased expression of β-lactamase genes induced by cefotaxime .

To compare the clinical features and prognosis in patients with cytomegalovirus pneumonia from other pneumonia after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). A total of 118 patients with pulmonary complications after allo-HSCT from March 2016 to June 2019 were analyzed retrospectively, who were divided into cytomegalovirus (CMV) pneumonia group ( n=34) and the non-CMV pneumonia group ( n=84). Compared with non-CMV pneumonia group, CMV pneumonia group presented earlier median onset time (1.8 vs.6.0 months, P=0.015) after allo-HSCT, more dyspnea (41.2% vs. 19.0%, P=0.012), hypoxemia (38.2% vs. 13.1%, P=0.006), and interstitial pneumonia (82.4% vs. 23.8%, P<0.01).The incidence of CMV-viremia and serum viral load in CMV pneumonia group were significantly higher than those in non-CMV pneumonia group. Consistently, and the development of mixed infection in CMV pneumonia group was higher than that of non-CMV pneumonia group (41.2% vs. 16.7%, P=0.013). The median follow-up time was 12.8 (0.4-46.5) months. The 1-year attributable mortality in CMV pneumonia group was significantly higher than that in non-CMV pneumonia group (26.5% vs. 10.7%, P=0.004), while the 1-year overall survival rate was significantly lower than that in non-CMV pneumonia group (61.8% vs. 85.7%, P=0.001). Reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC)( P=0.036), high flow ventilation ( P=0.033) and negative CMV-viremia ( P=0.009) were unfavorable prognostic factors of patients with CMV pneumonia. Compared with those with non-CMV pneumonia, patients with CMV pneumonia had more characteristic clinical manifestations and imaging features. However, due to the higher incidence of mixed infections, the causes of pneumonia need to be identified by bronchoscopic alveolar lavage. In conclusion, patients with CMV pneumonia have worse clinical outcome. RIC, high flow ventilation and negative CMV-viremia are adverse prognostic factors for CMV pneumonia.

Objective To compare the effect and cost of three different α-thalassemia prenatal screening strategies used in Guangdong, China, and to provide evidence for α-thalassemia prevention. Methods In total, 13 284 hospital-delivery couples and 13 369 newborns/fetuses (offspring) from 21 counties or districts of Guangdong Province were included in this study, who were treated from June to December 2012. Mean cell volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and hemoglobin A2 (Hb A2) were detected in the couples, and 6 types ofα-globin gene mutations were found in all couples and newborns. The strategies were MCV/MCH and serum Hb A2 (protocolⅠ) or parallel screening based on pregnant women (protocolⅡ), and serum screening based on couples (protocolⅢ). The validity and reliability of the three strategies were then compared using the Chi-square test. Results The sensitivity and the specificity of pregnant women who wereα-thalassemia carriers in protocolⅠwere 74.82%(1 352/1 807) and 74.11%(8 506/11 477), and were 89.82%(1 623/1 807) and 48.60%(5 578/11 477) in protocol Ⅱ , respectively. And 1.67% (221/13 284) couples were bothα-thalassemia carriers by the gene test. The rate of missed diagnosis in bothα-thalassemia carrier couples in protocolsⅠ,ⅡandⅢwas 50.68%(112/221), 11.76%(26/221) and 11.31%(25/221), respectively. In couples who needed prenatal diagnosis, the rates of missed diagnosis, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were 17.46%(11/63), 82.54%(52/63),98.35%(13 003/13 221), 19.26%(52/270) and 99.92%(13 003/13 014) in protocolⅠ;4.76%(3/63), 95.24%(60/63), 88.18%(11 658/13 221), 3.70%(60/1 623) and 99.97%(11 658/11 661) in protocolⅡ;and 3.17%(2/63), 96.83%(61/63), 59.31%(7 842/13 221), 1.12%(61/5 440) and 99.97%(7 842/7 844) in protocol Ⅲ , respectively. The diagnosis of severeα-thalassemia was not missed in all three screening strategies. The mean cost of protocols Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ for detecting a couple who needed prenatal diagnosis was 37 049.23, 50 836.00 and 40 321.64 RMB, respectively. Conclusions The three screening protocols have good efficiency in screening forα-thalassemia. However, protocolsⅡandⅢare preferred when financial conditions permit.
