Objective To observe the effect of application of Lamaze childbirth method in childbirth. Methods The observation group(110 cases)was trained by Lamaze childbirth method in late pregnancy period. The control group (110 cases) was not trained by Lamase childbirth method in antepartum period, and were given regular observation and nursing. Mastering of natural childbirth knowledge, pain intensity, childbirth time, mode of delivery and amount of bleeding post- childbirth 2h were observed in the two groups. Results The observation group mastered more natural birth knowledge than the control group, childbirth pain was obviously reduced, natural birth rate was higher than the control group, the first and second labor time was shorter than the control group, the amount of bleeding was obviously less than the control group 2 hours post childbirth. Conclusions Pregnant women need Lamaze childbirth method training before childbirth and instruction of maternity nurses. These may relieve pain, shorten childbirth time and reduce amount of bleeding post childbirth by application of Lamaze childbirth method.

Objective To investigate podocyte number, the expression of nephrin and transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1) in adriamycin-induced-nephropathy rat model and its significance. Methods The rat adriamycin nephrosis model was constructed to detect blood and urine biochemical indicators and observe the pathological changes of renal tissues by light microscope and electron microscope. The expression levels of nephrin and TGF-β1 as well as the podocyte number were examined at different time points by immunohistochemistry. Results The pathological changes of the renal tissues were obvious. Nephrin presented a weak signal at the end of the first week (P<0.05). TGF-β1 started to increase (P<0.05) while the podocyte number started to decrease at the end of the eighth week (P<0.05). Expression of nephrin was negatively correlated with the P<0.05) and serum creatinine (r=-0.71, P<0.05). Expression of TGF-β1 was blood urea nitrogen (r=0.62, P<0.05) and serum creatinine (r=0.59, urinary protein (r=-0.63, P<0.05), blood urea nitrogen (r=-0.72, P<0.05) and serum creatinine (r=-0.76, P<0.05); it was positively correlated with nephrin (r=0.78, P<0.01) but negatively correlated with TGF-β1 (r=-0.64, P<0.05). Conclusion The acute and chronic adriamycin nephrosis models were twice every two weeks. The genesis and development of proteinuria are closely related to the abnormal expression of nephrin. Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis occurs when the podocyte number decreases and TGF-β1 accelerates it.

Aim To study the effect of PA on the proliferation and maturation of cord blood derived DC in vitro. Methods The monocytes were isolated from human umbilical cord blood and cultured with PA, GM-CSF+IL-4+TNF-?(GTI), GTI+PA (GTIP), respectively. On day 7 of cultivation, the CD1a, CD83,HLA-DR and CD34 antigens expression of cells were analyzed by immunohistochemistry. Result The cells with typical morphological properties of DC can be observed with electron microscope among PA, GTI and GTIP groups. The CD1a and CD83 positive rates of PA group increased significantly, reaching 19.63%?3.61% and 14.52%?5.79% respectively, much higher than that of the control. In addition, compared with GIT group, the positive rate in GTIP group has increased remarkably. Conclusion PA does not only promote the proliferation and maturation of cord blood derived DC, but also cooperate with GTI to enhance the production of DC. PA is a useful activator of DC.

OBJECTIVETo study the correlation between brainstem auditory evoked potential (BAEP) and serum neuron-specific enolase (NSE) in neonates with asphyxia and explore the role of NSE in the evaluation of hearing impairment following asphyxia.

METHODSFifty-two term neonates with asphyxia, including 38 cases of simple asphyxia (mild: 23 cases; severe: 15 cases) and 14 cases of asphyxia complicated by hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), were enrolled. In the double-blind trial, BAEP and NSE were simultaneously detected 7 days after birth. The patients who did not pass BAEP test received another BAEP and NSE examinations 3 months after birth. Thirty healthy term neonates served as normal control group.

RESULTSOf the 52 neonates with asphyxia, 50.0% and 21.2% of patients failed the initial and the second BAEP tests, respectively. The detection rates of BAEP anomalies in the simple severe asphyxia group in the initial and the second tests (63.3% and 26.3%, respectively) were significantly higher than those in the simple mild asphyxia group (36.9% and 5.9%, respectively)(P<0.05). The neonates with asphyxia complicated by HIE showed a higher detection rate of BAEP anomalies in the second test compared with the asphyxiated neonates without HIE (31.3% vs 16.7%; P<0.05). Mean serum NSE levels in asphyxiated neonates were significantly higher than those in normal controls (<0.01). There were significant differences in serum NSE levels between the neonates with mild and severe asphyxia (26.70+/-2.34 microg/L vs 17.18+/-3.16 microg/L; P<0.01). The asphyxiated neonates with HIE had serum NSE levels similar to the simple severely asphyxiated neonates. Serum NSE levels in patients who failed the initial BAEP test were significantly higher than those who passed the test (25.69+/-4.12 microg/L vs 17.15+/-3.09 microg/L; <0.01). Serum NSE levels had a positive correlation with wave V reaction threshold detected in the BAFP test (<0.05).

CONCLUSIONSThe serum level of NSE is closely correlated with BAEP, and it may be useful to the evaluation of the hearing impairment and the outcome in neonates with asphyxia.

Objective To compare and analyze differences in macular thickness and to discuss the correlation between macular thickness and visual field mean defect (MD) in early and moderate,late pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG) patients and normal control subjects.Methods A series of cases-observation study was adopted.Thirty-three early and moderate PXG patients (33 eyes) and 24 late PXG patients (24 eyes) were collected in the First Hospital of Shijiazhuang from May 2013 to May 2018.Meanwhile,34 age,gender and diopermatched healthy subjects (34 eyes) were included as normal control group.Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) was used to measure macular thickness and volume in every quadrant.The correlation between the macular thickness and visual field MD were analyzed.This study followed the Helsinki declaration and was approved by the ethics committee of the First Hospital of Shijiazhuang.Written informed consent was obtained from each subject prior to any medical examination.Results The average macular thickness in normal control group,early and moderate PXG group and late PXG group were (305 ± 15),(297 ± 15) and (287 ± 17) μm,respectively;the average macular volume were (0.94 ± 0.05),(0.91 ± 0.05) and (0.89 ± 0.05) μm3,respectively.The macular thickness and volume differences between the 3 groups were statistically significant in nasal inner macula,superior inner macula,temporal inner macula,inferior inner macula,superior outer macula,temporal outer macula,inferior outer macula quadrants (Fthickness =4.226,9.335,12.133,10.115,11.298,8.243,12.142;all at P＜0.05.Fvolume =3.812,9.152,12.774,8.889,11.284,7.937,11.652;all at P＜0.05).The macular thickness of early and moderate PXG group in superior inner macula,temporal inner macula,inferior inner macula,superior outer macula and temporal outer macula quadrants were statistically thinner than those in the normal control group (all at P＜0.05);the macular thickness of late PXG group in inferior inner macula,temporal inner macula,superior outer macula and inferior outer macula quadrants were statistically thinner than those in the early and moderate PXG group (all at P＜0.05);the macular thickness of late PXG group in inner and outer rings were statistically thinner than those in the normal control group (all at P＜0.05).The macular thickness was not correlated with visual field MD in normal control group and the early and moderate PXG group in every quadrants (all at P＞0.05),but it was positively correlated with visual field MD in the late PXG group in nasal inner macula,superior outer macula and temporal inner macula quadrants (r =0.527,0.544,0.417;all at P＜0.05).Conclusions SD-0CT can quantify the macular thickness,and can be used an important reference index for the staging and follow-up of PXG combined with perimetry.

Objective:To explore the correlation between middle cerebral artery (MCA) pulsatility index (PI) and total magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) burden in elderly patients with cerebral small vessel diseases (CSVD).Methods:A total of 203 CSVD inpatients aged 60 years and above who were hospitalized in the Department of Neurology of Hebei General Hospital from March 2017 to December 2020 were enrolled. The clinical data, transcranial Doppler ultrasound parameters and brain MRI data were collected. According to the total burden score, the patients were divided into low burden group (0-1 point) and high burden group (2-4 points). Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between MCA PI and total MRI burden in the elderly patients with CSVD. Subsequently, the receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate the value of MCA PI for predicting the high MRI burden of CSVD in the elderly.Results:Hypertension ( OR=2.569, 95% CI 1.068-6.182, P=0.035), systolic blood pressure ( OR=1.033, 95% CI 1.006-1.061, P=0.016), creatinine ( OR=1.044, 95% CI 1.009-1.079, P=0.013) and MCA PI ( OR=1.125, 95% CI 1.087-1.166, P<0.001) were independently correlated with the increasing total MRI burden in the elderly patients with CSVD. Spearman rank correlation analysis revealed that there was strong and positive correlation between MCA PI and high MRI burden in the elderly patients with CSVD ( r=0.65, P<0.001). The analysis showed that when the cut-off for MCA PI was 1.11, it could identify high MRI burden of CSVD in the elderly. The area under the curve was 0.908 (95% CI 0.864-0.953, P<0.001). The sensitivity and specificity were 0.852 and 0.880, respectively. The positive predictive value was 92.38%, and the negative predictive value was 77.70%. Conclusion:The MCA PI is positively correlated with total MRI burden in the elderly patients with CSVD, and has a higher value in predicting the total MRI burden in the elderly CSVD patients, which probably bring brighter prospects for its clinical application.

Objective:To prepare a dual targeting nanobubble both for HER2 target and cancer cell target, and compare the targeting ability with single targeting nanobubble either with HER2 targeting or cancer cell targeting ability in vitro.Methods:Nanobubbles(NBs) were prepared using the modified thin film hydration method and then connected with IR783 directly (NBs-IR783), HER2 antibody Affibody by avidin-biotin method (NBs-Affibody), or both of them (IR783-NBs-Affibody). The size distribution, stability, and biosafety of these contrast agents were observed. Flow cytometry and immunofluorescence were applied to compare the binding rate of these NBs against HER2 positive breast cancer cell in vitro.Results:The average size of NBs-Affibody, NBs-IR783 and IR783-NBs-Affibody was (538.4±95.8)nm, (551.8±114.8)nm, and (482.7±54.3)nm, respectively. The binding rate for HER2 positive cell was 26.6%, 97.6%, 84.5%, while for HER2 negative cell was 5.4%, 99.9% and 99.3%, respectively. The results of dual-labeled flow cytometry showed that the binding rate of IR783-NBs-Affibody mediated by IR783 to HER2 positive breast cancer cells were 79.5% and Affibody mediated HER2 targeting binding rate were 19.4%. However, NBs-IR783 only showed IR783-mediated tumor targeted binding without HER2 targeting ability with binding rate of 2.3%.Conclusions:The prepared IR783-NBs-Affibody has the dual targeting ability for HER2 positive breast cancer cell, which is superior to the single targeting NBs (NBs-Affibody and NBs-IR783). IR783-NBs-Affibody is optimal to meet the imaging requirements of tumor heterogeneity.
