Objective To investigate the safety of trial of labor after cesarean (TOLAC) and clinical factors associated with successful TOLAC and to compare TOLAC with elective repeat caesarean section (ERCS) in terms of obstetric and neonatal outcomes.Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted among gravidas who had a history of lower segment cesarean section and were hospitalized in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology,the Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital of Medical School of Nanjing University from January to December 2014.Exclusion criteria included indications for caesarean section (such as placenta previa,placenta accreta,twin pregnancy,breech presentation and severe preeclampsia),serious maternal complications after cesarean section,lower uterine segment thinner than 3 mm and poor healing of uterine incision.Totally,287 gravidas were enrolled.Among them,142 chose TOLAC and the other 145 requested ERCS.Clinical data of those gravidas were collected and statistically analyzed by t-test,Log-rank test,Chi-square or Fisher's exact test.Results (1) The success rate of TOLAC was 90.8％ (129/142).There was no significant difference in maternal age,gestational age,thickness of lower uterine segment,interval between the two deliveries and neonatal birth weight and asphyxia rate between the successful (n=129) and unsuccessful (n=13) groups (all P＞0.05).Although the two groups had no significant difference in postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) rate,the gravidas who failed in TOLAC lost more blood than those who succeeded [425 (195-675) vs 200 (50-1 400) ml,P＜0.05].Moreover,higher amniotic fluid contamination rate was observed in the unsuccessful group [6/13 vs 17.1％ (22/129),P＜0.05].In the TOLAC group,99.3％ (141/142) were under continuous fetal heart rate monitoring.Incomplete uterine rupture occurred in one women without serious maternal or neonatal outcomes.The reasons for 13 failed TOLAC cases were unbearable pain during labor,abnormal labor,fetal distress and threatened rupture of uterus.(2) Compared with the ERCS group,the TOLAC group showed shorter interval from last cesarean section to the indexed delivery[5 (2-18) vs 6 (2-19) years],younger maternal age [(31±4) vs (33 ±4) years old] and less blood loss [200 (50-1 400) vs 300 (100-1 500) ml] (all P＜0.05).Conclusion Our study shows that,those who preferred TOLAC were younger,or had shorter pregnancy interval from last cesarean section.The success rate of TOLAC is high for women undergoing systematic prenatal assessment and close management during labor with less blood loss and non-serious maternal and neonatal complications compared with ERCS.

OBJECTIVE To study the cardiotoxicity of ophiopogonin D′(OPD′) for rat H9c2 cardio? myocytes. METHODS H9c2 cells were exposed to OPD′ 0.1, 1, 5, 10, 20, 25 and 50 μmol·L-1 for 24 h. Cell viability was examined by MTS assay, and the morphological changes in H9c2 cells were quanti? fied. The cell nucleus injury was examined by high content immune fluorescence screening and the morphological changes were observed under a fluorescence microscope. After treatment with OPD′ 0.1, 1, 5 and 10 μmol·L- 1 for 24 h, the effect on reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial mem? brane potential(MMP) and apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS The viability was sig? nificantly reduced following exposure to OPD′ 0.1, 1, 5, 10, 20, 25 and 50 μmol·L- 1 (P<0.05,P<0.01). The IC50 value was 9.9 μmol ·L- 1 and cell shrinkage and apoptosis occurred. The levels of ROS and apoptosis rate of H9c2 cells were significantly increased after exposure to OPD′ 0.1, 1, 5 and 10 μmol·L-1 for 24 h (P<0.05,P<0.01) and MMP markedly declined (P<0.05,P<0.01). CONCLUSION OPD′ has significent cytotoxicity on H9c2 cells. It may be related to inducing apopotsis pathways.

Objective:To analyze the incidence of complications of central venous catheterization and risk factors in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit of Xi'an Children 's Hospital.Methods:The clinical data of 310 children who underwent central venous catheterization in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit of Xi 'an Children's Hospital from June 2020 to February 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The incidence of complications of central venous catheterization and risk factors were analyzed.Results:A total of 334 central venous catheters were used in 310 chidren. Among the 310 children who underwent central venous catheterization, 102 children (30.54%) had complications related to central venous catheterization. The complications related to central venous catheterization included catheter infection (13.17%), catheter malposition (8.38%), exudation at the puncture site (4.79%), catheter occlusion (2.99%), accidental removal (0.60%), and central venous thrombosis (0.60%). Central venous catheters were removed in 82 children (24.55%) because of complications. There was a significant difference in the incidence of central venous thrombosis among three surgical approaches: femoral vein, internal jugular vein, and subclavian vein ( χ2 = 7.06, P = 0.029). Longer time for catheterization resulted in a higher incidence of complications, including catheter-related infection ( χ2 = 7.17, P = 0.028), puncture point exudation and obstruction ( χ2 = 8.59, P = 0.014), central venous thrombosis ( χ2 = 6.78, P = 0.034). Regression analysis showed that suture shedding and bleeding at the insertion sites were the main risk factors for catheter-related complications (suture shedding OR = 4.85, P = 0.001; bleeding at the insertion sites OR = 1.83, P = 0.008). Conclusion:The most common complications of central venous catheterization in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit of Xi'an Children's Hospital include catheter-related infection, catheter malposition, and puncture site exudation. Risk factors for complications during catheter retention include suture shedding and bleeding at the insertion sites.

Objective:To compare the effects of treatment with Hybrid-Hyrax-Facemask(FM)versus miniscrews in the anterior pal-ate combined with Hybrid-Hyrax-Facemask(MSI/FM)for patients with early Class Ⅲ malocclusion and maxillary deficiency.Methods:18 patients aged with early Class Ⅲ malocclusion and maxillary deficiency were randomly divided into 2 groups(n=9)and treated with FM and MSI/FM respectively.Alternating rapid maxillary expansion and constriction(Alt-RAMEC)protocol combined with a maxillary protraction force of 3.92 N was applied on each side of all patients from elastics connected to the facemask in a down-ward and forward direction of 30° to the occlusal plane.Iortho cephalometric software was used to analyze the data of lateral cephalo-grams of the patients before(T0)and after(T1)treatment.Results:Improvement was verified in the facial profile and occlusion of all patients.In MSI/FM group the average treatment time was shorter.There were significant differences(P＜0.05)between T0 and T1 in the following measurements in FM group:SNA,ANB,Co-A,Co-Gn,Wits,S-Go,Na-Me,MP,U1-SN,UADH,LADH,Overjet,UL-EP increased,U1-L1 decreased.There were significant differences(P＜0.05)between T0 and T1 in the following measurements in the MSI/FM group:SNA,ANB,Co-A,Wits,Na-Me,MP,Y-axis,U1-SN,Overjet,UL-EP increased,SNB,Co-Gn-Co-A,S-Go/N-Me,U1-L1,L1-MP decreased.Conclusion:Both FM and MSI/FM combined with Alt-RAMEC protocol and a maxillary protraction force are effective in the treatment for Class Ⅲ patients with maxillary deficiency.MSI/FM may produce more significant bone effect and re-duce dental compensation,promote more forward growth of midface and more improvement in the growth direction of mandible and re-duce compensatory lip inclination of anterior teeth in shorter treatment time.

Objective:To observe whether hair follicle cells from mice of different species can integrate to generate new pigmented hair follicles, and to explore the role of different melanocyte populations in pigmented hair follicle reconstruction in mice.Methods:The epidermal cell population, hair follicle epithelial cell population and dermal cell population were isolated from the skin of fetal or neonatal C57BL/6J and BALB/C mice, and epidermal melanocytes were obtained by culture and purification of the epidermal cell population. The experiments were divided into 3 parts: (1) hair follicle reconstruction experiment in neonatal C57BL/6J mice, which included 2 groups: epidermal cells + hair follicle epithelial cells group and dermal cells group; (2) chimeric hair follicle reconstruction experiment, which included 4 groups: dermal cells of neonatal C57BL/6J mice group, dermal cells of neonatal BALB/C mice group, dermal cells of neonatal BALB/C mice + dermal cells of neonatal C57BL/6J mice group, and dermal cells of fetal BALB/C mice + dermal cells of fetal C57BL/6J mice group; (3) pigmented hair follicle reconstruction experiment, which included 3 groups: dermal cells of neonatal BALB/C mice + epidermal cells of neonatal C57BL/6J mice group, dermal cells of neonatal BALB/C mice + hair follicle epithelial cells of neonatal C57BL/6J mice group, and dermal cells of neonatal BALB/C mice + cultured C57BL/6J epidermal melanocytes group. Different cells were implanted into dorsal skin fold chambers of the nude mice, and there were 4 mice in each group. At weeks 4 and 8 after inoculation, hair follicle reconstruction was assessed by gross observation, histological examination and immunofluorescence assay.Results:Among the 8 BALB/C nude mice in the 2 groups in the hair follicle reconstruction experiment, 7 survived and 1 died of wound infections on week 4 after inoculation; at weeks 4 and 8 after inoculation, no hair growth was observed in the epidermal cells + hair follicle epithelial cells group (3 mice) , while normal hair grew out in the dermal cells group (4 mice) mixed with epithelial components. Among the 16 BALB/C nude mice in the 4 groups in the chimeric hair follicle reconstruction experiment, 14 survived and 2 died of wound infections on week 4 after inoculation; at weeks 4 and 8 after inoculation, brown-grey hair grew well in the dermal cells of neonatal BALB/C mice + dermal cells of neonatal C57BL/6J mice group (4 mice) , and dermal cells of fetal BALB/C mice + dermal cells of fetal C57BL/6J mice group (3 mice) . Among the 12 BALB/C nude mice in the 3 groups in the pigmented hair follicle reconstruction experiment, 10 survived and 2 died of wound infections on week 4 after inoculation; at weeks 4 and 8 after inoculation, only white hair grew out in the dermal cells of neonatal BALB/C mice + cultured C57BL/6J epidermal melanocytes group (3 mice) , and no hair follicle melanocytes were observed by immunofluorescence assay, while brown-grey hair grew well in the dermal cells of neonatal BALB/C mice + epidermal cells of neonatal C57BL/6J mice group (4 mice) , and dermal cells of neonatal BALB/C mice + hair follicle epithelial cells of neonatal C57BL/6J mice group (3 mice) .Conclusions:The interaction between mesenchymal cells and hair follicle epithelial cells is a necessary condition for hair follicle reconstruction. The hair follicle cells from different species of mice can integrate to generate new pigmented hair follicles. Both hair follicle melanocytes and epidermal melanocytes can participate in the formation of pigmented hair follicles, but differentiated melanocytes have no such ability.

Objective To investigate the risk factors which can lead to chronic kidney disease (CKD) after radical nephroureterectomy and guide adjuvant chemotherapy for the patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC).Methods 239 patients with UTUC,who were treated at our hospital from October 2010 to February 2015 was analyzed retrospectively.Serum creatinine levels were measured preoperatively and 1 month (range:21days to 35 days) after radical nephroureterectomy.129 males and 110 females patients were enrolled.Ages were from 41 to 94,and mean age was 66 years.All patients underwent radical surgery.The pathological stages included Ta/T1/T2/T3/T4,and grades included G1/G2/G3.We calculated GFR using Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equations in consideration of age,sex,and serum creatinine level.The new-onset CKD after RNU was defined as when the calculated CKD-EPI GFR decreased to less than 60 ml/(min · 1.73 m2).These patients were divided into 2 groups which depended on whether they got CKD after RNU.Cohorts were stratified by gender,age,smoking,BMI,hypertension,diabetes mellitus (DM),tumor location,tumor size,multifocality,pathologic stage,grade,hydronephrosis and preoperative CKD-EPI GFR.The chi-square test was used to examine the relationship among the various cohorts and the CKD after RNU.The Kaplan-Meier method was adopted to identify the relationship between Overall survival (OS).Cancer-specific survival (CSS) and CKD.Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to study the relationship between clinical factors and CKD after RNU using the Cox proportional hazards regression model and chi-square test.Results In our study,the median follow-up time was 41.3 (range from 2-82) months for 239 patients.Median CKD-EPI GFR for all patients before and after surgery was 71.4 (65.2-108.7) ml/(min · 1.73 m2) and 54.7 (37.6-93.8) ml/(min · 1.73 m2),meanwhile 105 cases became new-onset CKD.There was no significant difference in overall or cancer specific survival between CKD + and CKD-(P =0.137,P =0.190).However age (HR =1.825,95％ CI 1.203-2.768,P =0.017),hydronephrosis (HR =0.243,95 ％ CI 0.106-0.613,P =0.034) and preoperative CKD-EPI GFR (HR =0.237,95 ％ CI 0.109-0.524,P =0.021) were significantly correlative with postoperative new-onset CKD.Conclusion Age,absence of hydronephrosis and preoperative CKD-EPI GFR were independent risk factors predicting new-onset CKD.They can be the predictor of new-onset CKD.

【Objective】 To study the incidence and specificity of platelet antibody in blood donors in Suzhou, analyze the distribution characteristics of platelet antibody in blood donors in this area, and explore the significance of platelet antibody detection in blood donors to reduce the adverse reactions toplatelet transfusion in clinical. 【Methods】 Platelet antibody detection was performed in 2178 blood donors in this area by solid-phase immunosorbent assay. The antibody specificity of the positive samples was analyzed by commercial kit, and the anti-CD36 antibody positive samples were further identified by flow cytometry and gene sequencing. 【Results】 Twelve positive samples were detected by platelet antibody screening, with a positive rate of 0.55%(12/2 178), including 5 males (0.33%, 5/2 178)and 7 females(1.06%, 7/2 178). Among the positive samples, anti-HLA-Ⅰ antibody was identified in 2 cases, anti-CD36 antibody in 1 case, and the antibody specificity was not identified in the other 9 cases. In one case, the positive rate of anti-HLA-Ⅰ antibody PRA was 31.31%(31/ 99), which was mainly specific to anti-B15, anti-B35 and anti-B40. The positive rate of anti-HLA-Ⅰ antibody PRA in the other case was 45.45%(45/ 99), which was mainly specific to anti-A2, anti-A11, anti-A24, anti-A29, anti-A33, anti-A66, anti-B15 and anti-B35. The blood donor with anti-CD36 antibody was type I CD36 deficiency, and 329_330delAC mutation occurred in exon 5. 【Conclusion】 Through antibody screening and specificity identification, the positive rate of platelet antibody in females was significantly higher than that in males(P<0.05). In addition to the common anti-HLA-I antibodies, anti-CD36 antibody was also detected in type I CD36 deficient blood donor. Therefore, the detection of platelet antibodies in blood donors is of certain clinical significance to reduce the adverse reactions to blood transfusion caused by antibodies in platelet products.
