Objective To study the value of hysteroscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of infertility caused by intrauterine lesions. Methods Hysteroscopic examinations and operations were performed in 82 cases of infertility caused by intrauterine lesions. Results No abnormal findings were found in 4 cases,while the other 78 cases of intrauterine abnormity comprised 23 cases of endometrial polyp, 29 cases of adhesive uteritis,18 cases of submucous myoma or adenomyosis, and 6 cases of uterine deformity. After hysteroscopic surgery and related treatment, the postoperative pregnancy rate reached 62 32% (43 of 69). Conclusions Hysteroscopy may be effectively used in the diagnosis and treatment of infertility caused by intrauterine factors.

Objective To evaluate the effects of extractive from Gastrodiae Rhizoma on acquisition, consolidation and retrieval of learning-memory function in mice;To provide some reference for clinical research and development of new drugs.Methods Male Kunming mice were randomly divided into control group, model group, positive control group and Gastrodia extractive group. Positive control group and Gastrodia extractive group were given gavage by using relevant medicine 0.2 mL/10 g, and the control group and model group were given gavage with the same amount of distilled water for 16 days. After receiving gavage for continuous 11 days, memory acquisition barrier model was induced by scopolamine;memory consolidation barrier model was induced by chloromycetin;memory retrieval barrier model was induced by EtOH. The learning-memory function was reviewed by escape latency and spatial search distance. The quadrant and distance search time percentage was detected through directional navigation test and spatial probe test in Morris water maze.Results Extractive from Gastrodia Rhizoma shortened the time for acquisition, consolidation and retrieval of learning memory about escape latency and spatial search distance (P<0.05,P<0.01), and the quadrant and distance search time percentage were prolonged (P<0.01).Conclusion Extractive from Gastrodia Rhizoa can effectively improve the acquisition, consolidation and retrieval of learning-memory function in mice.

Objective To compare the clinical effects of dydrogesterone and gestrinone on postoperative endometriosis and the rate of pregnancy in patients with infertility. Methods One hundred and fifty patients with postoperative endometriosis were enrolled in the current study who were hospitalized in fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Command from Jan. 2009 to Aug. 2013. They were randomly divided into dydrogesternne group(76 cases)and gestrenone groups(54 cases)based on progestogent treatment. The situation of pain symptoms improvement,the recurrence rate of 1 year,side effects and postoperative pregnancy rate were observed in order to evaluate the drug efficacy. Results There were a high rate of postoperative pain remission rate and a low recurrence rate of the two groups,and the difference was not significant( P ﹥0. 05 ). The main adverse reaction of patients in dydrogesterone group was breast pain and the incidence rate was 3. 9%( 3/76 ),while there was no breast pain in gestrinone group,and the difference was not significant( P =0. 140 ). The main adverse reaction of patients in gestrinone group was liver function damage and the incidence rate was 25. 9%(7/54),while the dydrogesterone group hadn't liver function damage,and the difference between two groups was significant( P =0. 000 ). The abnormal uterus bleeding incidence rate in dydrogesterone group was 15. 8%(12/76),higher than that of gestrinone group(13. 0%(7/54)),and the difference was significant(P=0. 038) . The serum carbohydrate antigen-125(CA-125)level in two groups were down to normal after operation,and still declined after drug treatment for 3 months. But there was no obvious change after 6 months. One year pregnancy rate of dydrogesterone pregnancy was 80%(24/30),higher than that of gestrinone group(48%,12/25),and the difference was significant( P =0. 038 ). Conclusion There is no significant difference in therapeutic effect between two groups. However,dydrogesterone therapy have no significant liver damage,and a higher postoperation pregnancy rate.

To improve the effect of teaching practice of blood cell morphology,typical cases of peripheral blood erythrocyte,granulocyte and platelet were chosen,case show and problem-based teaching way were applied to encourage students to find information of autonomous learning.Then teacher organized the class discussion,and the information was analyzed and summarized.In the implementation of the case teaching,we should pay attention to improving students' learning initiative.At the same time,teachers need to have knowledge,comprehensive ability and ability in organization and leadership,to promote students' active participation in discussion in the teaching,pay attention to the information feedback,and improve the teaching details

Objective:
To investigate the clinicopathological features, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma (MEITL).
Methods:
A total of 12 specimens were collected, which were surgically resected and verified as MEITL by postoperative pathology, immumohistochemical staining and gene rearrangement at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from 2012 to 2018, and all of these had complete clinical and pathological data. The MEITL cases were reviewed to compare the clinicopathological characteristics, including morphologic and immunophenotypic features and followed up by telephone and clinic visit.
Results:
All the cases were diagnosed with MEITL. There were 8 males and 4 females. Male to female ratio was 2∶1, at a median age of 54 years. The sites of involvement included jejunum (4 cases), ileum (5 cases), duodenum (1 case), ileocecal junction (1 case) and rectum (1 case). The neoplastic cells were monotonous of small to intermediate cells in size with round to slightly irregular nuclei in 11 cases. The immunophenotyping showed that CD3 (12/12), CD8 (11/12), CD43 (11/12), CD56 (11/12), TIA-1 (12/12) were positive; CD5 (12/12), Gran B (9/12), and perforin (7/12) were negative. Two cases aberrantly expressed the B-cell marker CD20. A high proliferation index was demonstrated by Ki-67 immunostaining. In situ hybridization for EBER was all negative(12/12). The whole exome sequencing(WES) mutational landscape of MEITL was remarkably homogeneous, showing significantly enriched clusters among histone modifier genes, JAK-STAT and MAPK-signal pathways. Histonelysine N-methytransferase SETD2 gene was mutated in 2/4 tumors. All the patients analyzed harbored at least one mutation in the JAK-STAT signal pathway, including STAT5B (2/4), JAK3 (3/4) and STAT5A (2/4). Furthermore, frequent alterations (TP53) were observed in the MAPK pathway in 3/4 of MEITL cases. The CNV analysis derived from WES data identified multiple regions of frequent gains and losses. In particular, gains in 1q, 7q and 9q, and recurrent losses involving 7p and 8p were observed.
Conclusions
MEITL is a rare and aggressive type of extranodal T-cell lymphoma. The differential diagnosis of MEITL includes EATL, extranodal NT/T-cell lymphoma and other types of PTCL. Diagnosis should be correlated to clinical symptoms while the final diagnosis is mainly based on the pathological features, immunophenotypes and genetic testing.
