Objective To evaluate the value of nuchal translucency (NT) thickness in the fetal chromosome abnormality screening. Methods 11 086 pregnant women received NT measurement in 11 ~ 13+6 weeks at Hainan general hospital from January 2010 to December 2014 were selected in the study. The NT thickness was measured according to guidelines from Fetal Medicine Foundation. 122 fetuses (NT≥2.5 mm) were recruited to accept karyotype analysis. Results 11 086 pregnant women received NT measurement in 11 ~13+6 weeks, in which 122 cases′ NT are more than or equal to 2.5 mm, with a positive rate of 1.10%. 122 cases of fetal NT thickening are between 2.5 to 12.0 mm, with the average degree at (4.5 ± 2.1)mm. 122 invasive prenatal diagnostic specimens chromosome karyotype analysis results showed chromosomal abnormalities in 21 cases (abnormal rate of 17.2%), the abnormal chromosome number in 17 cases and abnormal structure in 4 cases. The top 3 are trisomy 21 (12 cases, 57.1%), chromosome pericentric inversion (3 cases, 14.3%), and trisomy 18 (2 cases, 9.5%). Fetal chromosomal abnormalities resulting from different childbirth age, the sex of the fetus, NT thickness showed significant statistical difference (P < 0.05). The concrete manifestation is that fetal chromosomal anomaly detection rate in childbirth by women more than 35 years old age are higher than other age. Female fetal chromosomal anomaly detection rate is higher than the male , and NT thickness of 5mm of fetal chromosomal abnormality rate is significantly higher than the thickness of NT group at 2.5mm~ and 3.5mm~. Fetal NT thickening of NT measurements was in significant positive correlation with fetal chromosome abnormal rate (χ2=15.533, P < 0.001). Logistic regression analysis found that with a higher NT thickness , risk of fetal chromosomal abnormalities would be significantly higher , and thickening of NT could be an independent predictor of fetal chromosome abnormalities. Conclusion In early pregnancy, ultrasound examination of fetal ultrasound screening of NT thickness can be used as an important index of fetal chromosomal abnormality , and interventional diagnosis of prenatal NT thickness increase could pose increased risk of fetal chromosomal abnormalities.

The hypoglycemic activity and its mechanism of Jatrorrhizine (Jat) were studied. The normal mice and alloxan-induced hyperglycemic mice were given with different doses of Jat. Blood glucose and liver glycogen levels were determined by spectrophotometry with glucose-oxidase and iodine reagents respectively. The levels of blood lactic acid (LC) and liver lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity were measured to explore the effect of Jat on anaerobic glycolysis. Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) activity in liver was measured to evaluate the effect of Jat on aerobic glycolysis in liver. It was found that Jat (50 mg/kg, 100 mg/kg) could significantly decrease blood glucose level in a dose- and time-dependent manner in both normal and alloxan-diabetic mice, increase the activity of SDH, but had no significant effects on the LC level and LDH activity. Jat could significantly reduce the content of liver glycogen in normal mice. Moreover, Jat could inhibit the platelet aggregation in rabbits in vitro in a dose-effect relationship. It was concluded that Jat induced the pronounced decrease in blood glucose in normal and hyperglycemic mice. The hypoglycemic activity of Jat may be attributed to the enhancement of aerobic glycolysis.

Objective To compare proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) levels between premenopausal and postmenopausal women,and to investigate the relationship between serum PCSK9 and metabolic factors.Methods Totally 515 women were enrolled from the study on diabetes of prediction,prevention,and intervention in Nanjing in 2009.Survey,physical examinations,and determination of related metabolic indexes were performed.Serum PCSK9 level was measured by sandwich ELISA.Results Serum PCSK9 level was positively correlated with low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C),total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride,fasting plasma glucose,body mass index,waist-hip ratio,and age in women (all P＜0.01).PCSK9 level was significantly lower in premenopausal women than that in postmenopausal women [(58.18 ± 25.44 vs 80.91 ± 33.74) ng/ml,P ＜0.01].Conclusion Higher level of PCSK9 exists in postmenopausal women compared with premenopausal women.The level of PCSK9 is closely correlated with age,TC,and LDL-C.

Objective To evaluate the eradication rate and long-term therapeutic effect of a triple therapy consisted of cla-(rithromycin) (CLA), amoxicillin (AMO)and omeperazole on Hp infection,and explore the alternative therapeutic programs and their effects after first therapeutic failure.Methods A total of 92 children with Hp infection were divided into two groups: 70 children were given the triple therapy for one week (CLA group);Twenty-two children were given another triple therapy composed of metronida-(zoole) (MET), AMO and omeperazole for two weeks (MET group).All of the children were followed up for 1-30 months after the therapies ended.Children of the two groups who were therapeutic failure were given retreatment as follows.CLA triple therapy were given for one week to the children who were failure after MET triple therapy;increased doses of CLA with longer treatment course was given to the children who were failure after CLA triple therapy . A tetra therapy consisted of colloidal bismuth subcitrate (CBS), furazolidone (FUR) ,omeperazole and AMO was given to children in whom the retreatment failed.Results The Hp eradication rate of CLA group was 91.4%(64/70),and the Hp eradication rate of MET group was 72.7%(16/22).There was significant difference between eradication rate of the two groups(?~2=5.16 P
