Objective To explore the relationship between the times of abortion and congenital and acquired uterine anomalies.Methods One hundred and eighty-five patients underwent diagnostic hysteroscopy following abortion were selected and diagnosed by hysteroscopy,then divided into congenital and acquired uterine abnormalities according to the morphology and the formation of uterine cavity lesions.The relationship of 1 times,2 times,equal or more than 3 times of different number of abortion and uterine congenital and acquired abnormalities were compared respectively.Results Diagnostic hysteroscopy revealed anomalies uterine cavity was 79.9％ (148/185),of them congenital uterine anomalies was 52.4％ (97/185),and acquired uterine pathologies was the most of 21.1％ (39/185),acquired uterine abnormalities was 21.1％ (39/185),and intrauterine adhesion was the most common of 11.9％ (22/185).Incidence of intrauterine adhesions of natural abortion with 1 times,2 times and 3 times or more were 7.4％ (5/68),14.1％ (11/78) and 15.4％ (6/39).Hysteroscopy showed that the detection rates of normal uterine cavity,congenital abnormalities,acquired uterine and congenital and acquired pathologies in 3 groups were 27.9％ (19/68),51.5％ (35/68),17.6％ (12/68)and 2.9％(2/68);17.9％(14/78),51.3％(40/78),24.3％(19/78) and 6.4％(5/78);10.3％(4/39),56.4％ (22/39),20.5％ (8/39) and 12.8％ (5/39),respectively,the differences were not significant (x2 =8.823,P=0.184).Conclusion Hysteroscopy is a simple and efficient tool in the early diagnosis of congenital and acquired uterine anomalies.Diagnostic hysteroscopy can be performed after the first miscarriage in order to early diagnose and treat congenital and acquired uterine pathologies.

Objective To explore the morbidity, risk factors and nursing of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in comprehensive ICU. Methods It was a retrospective survey. 98 mechanical ventilation (＞ 48 h) patients from Jan to Dec, 2009 in comprehensive ICU were reviewed using questionnaires to collect the clinical data. They were divided into the VAP and the non-VAP group. Several statistically significant risk factors were screened out with univarite analysis, then independent risk factors were determined with multiple Logistic regression. Results The morbidity of VAP was 35.7%. Univariate analysis showed that the level of APACHE Ⅱ score, duration of mechanical ventilation, whether primary lung disease, whether acid-suppressing agents, whether the semi-supine, whether accidental tube removal, oral care approach, whether attracted to subglottic were statistically significant risk factors of VAP. While multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the duration of mechanical ventilation, whether the semi- supine,whether attracted to subglottic were the major risk factors of VAP. Conclusions The occurrence of VAP is related with multiple factors. Application of comprehensive prevention strategies in accordance with these risk factors of VAP can reduce the morbidity of VAP effectively.

We describe the prenatal diagnosis and postnatal follow-up of a fetus with a pericallosal lipoma diagnosed by MRI. The pregnant woman was admitted to Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University in February 2019. MRI examinations with multiple sequences and imaging methods were performed prenatally at 31 +6 and 38 +3 weeks of gestation, and at two days and three months postnatally. The MRI images showed that the corpus callosum was normal and the lesion was located around the corpus callosum, with high signal intensity on T1 weighted imaging, medium-to-high signal intensity on T2 weighted imaging, and low signal intensity on fat suppression sequence. No abnormal blood vessels were found on susceptibility-weighted imaging and time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography sequences. Based on the prenatal and postnatal MRI findings, the tumor was clinically diagnosed as a pericallosal lipoma.

The application of biological technology and the deepening of tumor research have effectively improved the level of tumor diagnosis, treatment and clinical outcome prediction. However, the specific mechanisms of tumorigenesis and development are still unclear, and tumor drug resistance has also become an urgent problem that needs to be solved to improve the clinical outcome of patients. Considerable studies have shown that the extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA) can promote tumorigenesis, development and drug resistance. EcDNA is a looser, rounded form of DNA with unique genetic properties that carry specific genes and regulatory elements. This paper will discuss the biological characteristics, tumor-promoting mechanisms and drug resistance-facilitating of ecDNA.

To obtain the genome sequence of human bocavirus 2 (HBoV2), different regions of HBoV2 genome were amplified through PCR in fecal specimens which had been identified as single-positive for HBoV2 in 2010. A genome sequence of HBoV2 (HBoV2-NC, 5444 bp) was obtained after sequence assembly. The phylogenetic analysis showed that HBoV2-NC had the closest evolutionary relationship with HBoV2 Lanzhou strain. The predication of inverted terminal repeats of HBoV2-NC by DINAMelt showed that inverted terminal repeats were contained in HBoV2-NC 5' terminal, which had the typical stem-loop structure in other parvoviruses. Finally, some flanking sequences of HBoV2-NC were amplified by linker-PCR.
