Objective To investigate the applied value of abnormalities of fetus with oligohydramnios in mid-pregnancy by anmioinfusion. Methods Fifty women with oligohydramnios diagnosed by ultrasonograph were analysed retrospectively. During the procedure 60-300 ml saline solution at 37 ℃ were infused into the amniotic cavity,made prenatal diagnosis at the same time necessarily. And examined the women to know whether the fetal anomaly existed or not after the amnioinfusion by the ultrasound. Results There were 15 cases with fetal anomaly, 8 cases with genitotirinary anomaly(2 cases associated with multiple organs anomaly), 1 case with single umbilical artery, 4 cases with chromosomal abnormality (2 cases associated with fetal growth restriction), 2 cases with pulmonary hypolasia. There was no significant difference in dilivery outcome between others and 35 cases with normal pregnant women (P >0.05). Conclusion Transabdominal amnioinfusion has double function on beth diagnosis and therapy for the oligohydramnios in the mid-pregnancy.

Objective To observe the effects of estradiol-17? (E 2-17?) on the induction of experimental autoimmune thyroiditis (EAT). Methods Ten-week old female Wistar rats were ovariectomized (OVX). EAT of Wistar rats was induced by immunization with thyroglobulin (Tg) from SD rats in the presence of complete Freund′s adjuvant. Thyroiditis was pathologically evaluated by HE staining. E 2-17? and PRL levels were measured by RIA, anti-Tg antibody (TgAb) was detected by ELISA, and interferon (IFN)-?, interleukin (IL)-10 mRNA in thyroid were assayed by RT-PCR. Results The serum level of E 2-17? (17.60?1.02)pmol/L and PRL (2.45?0.15)?g/L were much lower in OVX rats than intact rats 〔(58.56?6.99)pmol/L and (3.22?0.17)?g/L, respectively〕 (both P

Objective: To investigate the development of osteoporosis (OS) and its influencing factors among physical examination populations aged over 35 years in urban areas of Hangzhou City, so as to provide insights into OP prevention. Methods: Subjects aged over 35 years that underwent physical examinations in Wenhui Street Community Health Service Center of Gongshu District, Hanghzhou City during the period between April and July, 2022 were enrolled. Subjects' demographic characteristics and physical examination data were collected, and the bone mineral density and serum vitamin D levels were measured. The factors affecting the development of OP were identified using a logistic regression model. Results: A total of 1 561 subjects were recruited, including 616 males (39.46%) with a median (interquartile range) age of 62 (18) years, and 945 females (60.54%) with a median (interquartile range) age of 62 (19) years. The prevalence of OP was 43.69% among the study subjects. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified women (OR=1.367, 95%CI: 1.105-2.979) and increased age (OR=1.057, 95%CI: 1.044-1.069) as risk factors for OP and elevated serum 25-hydroxy-vitamin D levels as a protective factor for OP (OR=0.969, 95%CI: 0.954-0.985). Conclusions The prevalence of OP was 43.69% among physical examination populations aged over 35 years in urban areas of Hangzhou City, and gender, age and serum 25-hydroxy-vitamin D were factors affecting the development of OP.

Objective To explore relationship between imaging classification and pathological type,and the electron microscopic ultrastructure by observing the ultrastructural features of congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM).Methods Children with CCAM in the Guangdong Women and Children Hospital from May 2014 to November 2014,were analyzed,imaging classification was performed according to enhanced Computed Tomography (CT) scanning,and the surgical specimens were stained by HE and scanning electron microscope was used to observe the tissue structures of various of CCAM.Results Eight cases were enrolled in this research (5 boys and 3 girls),and the mean age of surgery was (5.4 ± 1.1) month old.According to the features of enhanced CT scanning,there were 2 cases of the type-Ⅰ,and the other 3 cases of type-Ⅱ,and 3 cases of type-Ⅲ;According to the characteristics of the pathological types,there was 1 case of type-Ⅰ,4 cases of type-Ⅱ,and the other 3 cases of type-Ⅲ.There was 1 case which classified as type-Ⅰ by CT,however classified as type-Ⅱ by pathological typing.The findings of CT features were in complete correspondence with the pathological types in the rest cases.Electron microscopic findings showed the alveolar spaces were enlarged,the alveolar cells were reduced,the lamellar bodies were decreased and immature and microvilli were also decreased.There was no significant difference between Ⅰ and Ⅱ type under the viewpoint of electron microscope.The common features between type Ⅰ,and type Ⅱ included that the alveolar space was enlarged,the alveolar space had been pressed between enlarged alveolar space,the alveolar cell were decreased and immature,and fibrous hypertrophy was also found.Conclusions There are differences between ultrastructural analysis and clinical pathological typing which suggests the clinical importance of the electron microscopy ultrastructural analysis combined with pathology for typing.There need further clinical and laboratory studies,especially the combination of microscopy-electrical control microscope for typing with related predictive models for follow-up of CCAM.

Objective To express and purify the pneumococcal surface adhesin A(PsaA) protein,discuss its application as a protein carrier in conjugates vaccine. Methods The gene encoding for the PsaA protein was amplified from the genomic DNA of Streptococcus pneumoniae using PCR. The PCR product was then cloned into the prokaryotic expression vector pET-28a and the recombinant was transformed into host cell E. coli BL21 (DE3). The expression of the recombinant protein(rPsaA) was induced by IPTG and purifled by using DEAE anion-exchange chromatography. The rPsaA was successfully conjugated with group A meningococcal polysaccharide(GAMP). The mice were immunized subcutaneously with the conjugate and the immune responses against GAMP and PsaA were detected by ELISA. Results The recombinant PsaA was expressed as a 37 × 103 soluble protein without His-Tag. The rPsaA was successfully conjugated with GAMP. In addition to the immune response against PsaA, The antibody response against GAMP was significant improved in the mice immunized with conjugate vaccine in comparison with those immunized with GAMP alone. Conclusion The recombinant protein PsaA without His-Tag was obtained and conjugated with GAMP. The strong antibody responses against PsaA and CAMP were obtained in the immunized mice at the same time which may provide the protection against pneumonia and meningitis simultaneously.

Objective To investigate the effect of pretreatment with electroacupuncture at point Neiguan(PC6) on CK and myocardial cell activity in rabbit myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and provide an experimental basis for a relatively specific relationship between pericardium meridian points and the heart. Methods Forty New Zealand big ear rabbits were randomly allocated to groups A, B, C, D and E, eight rabbits each. Group A was a sham operation group. Group B was an ischemia-reperfusion model group, in which the left anterior descending coronary artery was occlude for 30 min and reperfused for 60 min. In groups C, D and E, points Neiguan(PC6), Lieque(LU7) and Hegu(LI4) were separately given electroacupuncture stimulation, 20 min every day, at seven days before model making.
