Objective To analyze the influential factors of clinical pregnancy rate of the frozen-thawed embryo transplantation. Methods The data of 3 192 FET patients in the reproductive medicine center of our hospital up to May 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. According to ages, reasons of infertility, types of infertility, duration of infertility, drug regimen, the number and the time of embryo transplantation, we divided these patients into six groups for comparing the clinical pregnancy rate. Results The FET clinical pregnancy rate of the under 35 years group was higher than the 35~39 years group and the over 39 years group (33.96%vs. 27.58%and 19.35%; P<0.05, respectively). The duration of infertility in the clinical pregnancy group was significantly shorter than the non-pregnancy group (P<0.05). The clinical pregnancy rate in the group with three embryos transplanted was higher than the group with only two embryos transplanted (41.01% vs. 28.75%; P < 0.05). Among the group with the age of over 40 years, those with three embryos transplanted had a higher clinical pregnancy rate than those with only one embryo transplanted (25.49% vs. 0.00%; P < 0.05). The clinical pregnancy rate of the frozen blastocyst transplantation group was higher than that of the cleavage-stage transplantation group (40.00%vs. 26.27%;P<0.05). Conclusion Age, infertility duration, the number and the time of frozen embryo transplantation may affect the clinical pregnancy rate among the FET patients. An individualized transplantation program based on age may improve the patient′s clinical pregnancy rate.

Objective To establish effective method for large-scale purification of islet cells from pig pan-cress. Methods Pig pancreas tissue was digested with collagenase P followed by purification in a HCA-Fi-coil dis continuous gradient using Cobe2991 cell separator. After isolation, the islet cell yield and purity were evaluated with light microscope with DTZ staining, and the islet function assessed by insulin release as-say in vitro. Results The number of the islets coll ected from each pancreas averaged (275 000±20 895)islet equivalents (IEQ) before purification, and (230 350±26 679) IEQ after the purification with discon-tinuous gradient centrifugation. From each gram of the pancreatic tissue, (2710±229) IEQ were obtained with an average purity of (50.2±1.95) %. The purified islets responded well to high-concentration (16.7 mmol/L) glucose stimulation with a 4. 74-fold increase of insulin secretion over the basal level (3.3 mmol/L, P <0.001). Conclusion The established method can be applicable for large-scale purifi-cation of fully functional islet cells from pig pancreas.

Objective To investigate the effects of liver X receptor (LXR) agonist on the proliferation of mouse pancreatic β cell line MIN6 cells.Methods The viability,changes of cell cycle,mRNA levels of S phase kinase associated protein 2 (Skp2) and p27,and protein levels of Skp2 and p27 in MIN6 cells treated with LXR agonist T0901317 were determined by the CCK-8 method,flow cytometry,real-time RT-PCR and western blot,respectively.Results The viability of MIN6 cells treated with 1 μmol/L,5 μmol/L and 10 μnol/L of T0901317 were (98.54 ±0.94)％,(87.03 ±0.93)％ and (75.57 ± 1.85)％ of the controls,respectively,and there was significant difference among them (F =301.90,P ＜ 0.01).The percentages of G1 phase cells in the MIN6 cells treated with 0 μmol/L,1 μmol/L,5 μmol/L and 10 μmol/L of T0901317 were (35.93 ±2.25)％,(38.45 ±0.91)％,(45.46±1.34)％ and (53.28 ± 1.14) ％,respectively,and there was significant difference among them (F =80.83,P ＜ 0.01).Similarly,the percentages of S phase cells in the MIN6 cells treated with 0 μmol/L,1 μmol/L,5 μmol/L and 10 μmoi/L of T0901317 were (52.87 ± 1.19) ％,(48.65 ± 0.85) ％,(36.31 ± 1.37) ％ and (31.45 ± 1.22) ％,respectively,and there was also significant difference among them (F =221.30,P ＜ 0.01).The protein levels of p27 in the MIN6 cells treated with 10 μmol/L of T0901317 (2.84 ± 0.14) were significantly higher than that in the controls (2.28 ± 0.10) (t =4.54,P ＜ 0.05),while there was no significant difference in the mRNA levels of p27 between them (t =0.28,P ＞ 0.05).However,10 μmol/L of T0901317 significantly decreased mRNA (0.52 ± 0.02,t =29.22,P ＜ 0.01) and protein levels (0.98 ± 0.12 vs 1.89 ± 0.01,t =10.98,P ＜ 0.01) of Skp2 in MIN6 cells.Based on the control siRNA transfection group as a reference (100％),the cell survival rates of the p27 siRNA transfection group,10 μmol/L of T0901317 treatment group and the intervention group (p27 siRNA transfection + T0901317 treatment) were (100.97 ± 1.08) ％,(75.03 ± 1.83) ％ and (86.67 ± 2.45) ％,respectively.There was no significant difference between the control siRNA and p27 siR-NA transfection groups (t =1.542,P ＞ 0.05).Compared with the control siRNA transfection group,the cell survival rates of the T0901317 treatment group decreased (t =23.58,P ＜ 0.01).There was also significant difference in the cell survival rates between the T0901317 treatment group and the intervention group (t =7.77,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The activation of LXR may induce pancreatic β cell cycle arrest by up-regulating the expression of p27 and down-regulating the expression of Skp2.

Objective To study the efficacy of laparoscopic tumor resection combined with iodine-125 and radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of rectal carcinoma with synchronous hepatic metastasis. Methods There were 30 patients diagnosed as rectal carcinoma with synchronous hepatic metastasis detected by CT scan. Hepatic metastases were confirmed by needle biopsy under laparoscopy. Laparoscopic radical resection of rectal carcinoma and metastatic hepatic tumors was performed. Those metastatic tumors that could not be resected were managed by RAF. Iodine-125 was planted in the tumors' site. Results Seven new hepatic metastases were found by the laparoscopic ulstrasound during the operation. 8 hepatic metastatic lesions were removed, 25 tumors located in the right liver were managed by RAF. All patients were followed-up from 12 to 25 months(average 22. 3 months), Local recurrence was found in 6 patients, the 1-year survival rate was 73% (22/30). Conclusions Laparoscopic excision, Iodine-125 and radiofrequency ablation in the treatment of rectal carcinoma with synchronous hepatic metastasis is safe、effective、minimally invasive.

Objective To observe the effects of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation quadruple therapy on serum thromboxane A2 (TXA2), prostacyclin (PGI2) and platelet activating factor (PAF) levels in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods Ninety patients with AP admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of TCM from January 2016 to March 2017, and they were divided into an observation group and a control group according to the random numbers generated by computer inpatients, 45 cases in each group. The control group was given routine treatment of western medicine, and the observation group was given TCM syndrome differentiation quadruple therapy according to the patient's disease individual situation and on the basis of western medicine treatment. The TCM syndrome differentiation quadruple therapy included the following methods: intragastric administration of TCM decoction [gastrointestinal excess heat syndrome (rhubarb, sodium sulfate, aurantii fructus immaturus, magnolia bark, etc.), damp heat syndrome of liver and gallbladder (radix bupleuri, aurantii fructus immaturus, baical skullcap root, rhubarb, etc.), each group of above agents immersed in water and decocted to make juice 400 mL, once 100 mL taken orally, every 4 hours]; retention enema with TCM decoction [rhubarb, magnolia bark, aurantii fructus immaturus, sodium sulfate (dissolved) etc, each dose of agents forming decoction 400 mL, 200 mL taken for proctoclysis, once every 6 hours]; Chinese medicine package (boswellin, myrrha, dandelion, coptidis rhizoma and so on crushed and mixed with honey, then applied to the body surface of the pancreas and its periphery, 1 dose each time for 4 hours, once a day ); intravenous drip of blood-activating and stasis-resolving TCM (Dengzhanhuasu injection 100 mg added to 5% glucose solution 250 mL for intravenous drip). The times of disappearance of abdominal distension, abdominal pain, and the recovery times of bowel sound, blood amylase, lipase, C-reactive protein (CRP), white blood cell count (WBC) levels to normal were compared between the two groups; the modified CT severity index (MCTSI) score and the changes of serum TXA2, PAF and PGI2 levels were observed before and after treatment in the two groups. Results The abdominal pain and abdominal distension disappearance times in observation group were shorter than those in control group [abdominal pain (days): 5.07±1.88 vs. 6.02±1.89, abdominal distension (days): 3.50±1.49 vs. 4.40±1.53, both P < 0.05]; the recovery times of bowel sounds, WBC, CRP, amylase and lipase to normal were shorter than those of the control group [bowel sounds (days): 4.05±1.79 vs. 5.00±1.55, WBC (days): 3.93±1.49 vs. 5.98±2.90, CRP (days): 6.17±2.46 vs. 7.92±2.84, blood amylase (days): 3.5 (3.0, 5.0) vs. 5.0 (3.0, 5.5), lipase (days): 5.0 (3.0, 7.0) vs. 6.5 (5.0, 9.0), all P <0.05]; the scores of MCTSI in the two groups were lower than those before treatment and the degree of decrease in the observation group was more significant than that in the control group [2 (0, 4) vs. 4 (0, 6), P < 0.05]. The TXA2 and PAF levels of the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment and the level of PGI2 was significantly higher than that before treatment; after treatment for 3 days, the differences between the two groups showed statistical significance and on the 7th day after treatment, the degrees of improvement in observation group were more obvious than those of the control group [TXA2 (ng/L): 276.81±31.48 vs. 345.42±47.27, PAF (ng/L): 72.65±17.61 vs. 89.77±15.59, PGI2 (ng/L): 104.43±18.67 vs. 94.37±17.91, all P < 0.05]; on the 14th day after treatment, the values of the two groups were very close and there were no statistically significant differences (all P >0.05). Conclusions The TCM differentiation syndrome quadruple therapy for treatment of AP is beneficial to the disappearance of clinical symptoms of patients with different syndromes, recovery of abnormal signs and improvement of laboratory indexes, and its early use can significantly reduce the serum levels of TXA2, PAF and increase the level of PGI2 in patients with AP.

Objective To detect changes of Foxp3 expression in the decidua in patients with preeclampsia and investigate the correlation of Foxp3-924 (rs2232365) polymorphisms with preeclampsia. Methods From October 2011 to December 2012, 252 normal pregnant women and 156 preeclampsia patients of Han nationality from the same geographic region were tested for Foxp3-924 genotypes by polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primer (PCR-SSP). Sixty-eight of the patients with preeclampsia (33 with mild and 35 with severe preeclampsia) and 30 of the normal pregnant women were also examined for Foxp3 expression in the decidua using immunohistochemical method. Results Foxp3 positive expression rates in the decidua was 51.52%in mild preeclampsia and 28.57%in severe preeclampsia cases, significantly lower than that in the control group (86.67%, P<0.05). In preeclampsia patients, the frequencies of Foxp3-924G/G, G/A, and A/A genotypes were 0.1346, 0.4615 and 0.4038, respectively, and the frequencies of Foxp3-924A and Foxp3-924 G were 0.6346 and 0.3654, respectively. The genotype frequencies of Foxp3-924G/G, G/A and A/A in the control group were 0.1508, 0.4087 and 0.4405, respectively, and the frequencies of Foxp3-924 A and Foxp3-924 G were 0.6448 and 0.3552, respectively. No significant differences were found in the gene frequencies of Foxp3-924G/A between preeclampsia patients and the control group (P>0.05). Conclusion The expression level of Foxp3 in the placental tissue of preeclampsia patients is significantly lower than that in normal pregnant women, suggesting that lowered Foxp3 expression decreases the immunosuppressive function and causes imbalance of immune tolerance between maternal-fetal to induce preeclampsia. Foxp3-924 polymorphisms is not significantly correlated with the occurrence of preeclampsia.
