Journal of Chinese Physician 2001;3(5):344-346
Objective To explore the correlative factors of ovulation-failure induced with clomiphene(CC) in polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods The relationship between ovulation rate(OR),ovulation cycle rate(OCR) among 178 cases,569 taking medicine cycles and clinical features,endocrine markers were retrospectively analysed.Results OR was 73.0%,OCR was 45.3%,OCR of both the dysfunctional uterine bleeding(DUB) and anovulatory menstruation groups were markedly higher than those of secondary amenorrhea group(P<0.005,0.05),OCR of the DUB group was significantly higher than that in oligomenstruation group too(P<0.05).OR of the nonpilosity and nonobesity groups were markedly higher than that of pilosity and obesity groups respectively(P<0.01,0.005).OCR of the unmarried group was significantly higher than infertility and fertilized groups(P<0.025,0.005).OCR of LH/FSH≥3 and serum testosterone(T) level-normal groups were respectively higher than LH/FSH<3 and serum T level-elevated group(P<0.05~0.025).There was markedly correlation among LH/FSH radio,T level,BMI and OR,OCR,PRL levels and OR(P<0.05~0.01).Conclusions The findings suggest that effect of the ovulation induced with CC in PCOS relate to types of menstruation,pilosity,status of marry-fertility,levels of LH/FSH,T,PRL.

Objective To study the effects of anti-oncogene WWOX on cell growth of epithelial ovarian cancer,in order to find a new approach of gene therapy for ovarian cancer.Methods A eukaryotic expression vector containing WWOX was transfected into ovarian cancer cell line HO8910 in vitro (recombinant plasmid group),and positive cell clones were selected and amplified.Expression of WWOX protein was detected by western blot. Untransfected cell(blank contrast group) and transfected empty plasmid cell(empty plasmid group)were served as control groups.In vitro,the biology effect of WWOX on HO8910 cell was analyzed throush the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium test,transwell chamber cell invasion assay in vitro,agarose clony-formation and flow cytometry.In vivo,the cell of transfection was transplanted intraperitoneally in to BALB/c nude mice.The survival time and growth ability of nude mice were observed.Results (1)Recombinant plasmid group cell could steadily express WWOX protein,while in empty plasmid group and blank control group the expression of WWOX protein were not detected.(2)The growth rate of recombinant plasmid group cell was inhibited.(3)The agnrose clony-formation rate of recombinant plasmid group(19.8%)was significantly lower than that of the empty plasmid group(54.5%)and blank control group(56.0%,P<0.05).(4)Flow cytometry showed that(72.08±0.39)% of cells was arrested at G0/G1 stage in recombinant plasmid group, while in empty plasmid group and blank control group G0/G1 stage cells were at (41.02±1.08)% and (39.31±0.67)% (P<0.05). (5) In vitro invasion assay showed that invasion cell number in recombinant plasmid group (89.7±3. 1 ) was not significantly different from that of empty plasmid group(91.2±1.3) and blank control group(91.4±1.3, P >0. 05). (6) In vivo test in nude mice showed that WWOX gene could inhibit tumor growth of the HO8910 cells. Conclusions Tumor suppressor gene WWOX could interfere with the cell cycles of ovarian cancer cell and inhibit cell proliferation. As a new valuable tool,it premises to have application in the gene therapy of ovarian cancer.

Objective To investigate the results of the language rehabilitation through the evaluation of the language comprehension of 75 cases of severe to profound pre -lingually deaf adolescents with cochlear implants . Methods Using evaluation criteria and methods on hearing and speech ability in deafened childrenas a test mate-rial ,and analyzed the outcome of the language comprehension test .Results The comprehension ability of entire pa-tients increased significantly as time went by .The entire comprehension ability was 0 .75y ,1 .45y ,2 .23y ,3 .08y before operations ,and 3 ,6 ,12 months after operations .The younger ,the more significant the improvements .There was no significant difference in rehabilitation outcomes in genders and wearing no hearing aids .Conclusion Cochlear implants can improve the comprehension ability of pre -lingual deaf adolescents ,and the longer they use implants , the better the results .If being implanted at younger age ,the improvement will be more significant .Patients who were beyond the best age were advised to get implant as soon as possible .

Objective:To investigate the drug resistance factors in postoperative gemci-tabine chemotherapy after radical resection of pancreatic cancer.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was constructed. The clinicopathological data of 255 patients with pancreatic cancer who were firstly admitted to the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi ′an Jiaotong University from January 2018 to June 2021 were collected. There were 140 males and 115 females, aged (59±10)years. All patients underwent radical resection of pancreatic cancer and received postoperative gemcitabine-based adjuvant chemotherapy. Observation indicators: (1) follow-up; (2) postoperative chemotherapy; (3) drug resistance and changing of regimen; (4) factors influencing postoperative chemotherapy resistance. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and compari-son between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the Pearson chi-square test. Univariate analysis was conducted using the corresponding statistical methods based on data type. Multivariate analysis was conducted using the Logistic regression model with forward method. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curve, and Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Follow-up. All 255 patients were followed up for 18.6(16.7,21.4)months. The median survival time of 255 patients was 18.2[95% confidence interval ( CI) as 15.8-20.6]months. (2) Postoperative chemotherapy. Of the 255 patients, there were 5 cases receiving postoperative chemotherapy as gemcitabine monotherapy, 167 cases receiving postoperative chemotherapy as the AG combination (gemcitabine plus albumin-bound paclitaxel), 74 cases receiving postoperative chemotherapy as the GS combination (gemcitabine plus S-1) and 9 cases receiving postoperative chemotherapy as the GP combination (gemcitabine plus platinum). (3) Drug resistance and changing of regimen. Of the 255 patients, 81 cases completed the course of postoperative chemotherapy and evaluation. Of the 81 patients, there were 18 cases with no recurrence or metastasis of tumor, 10 cases with tumor local recurrence, 40 cases with tumor lymph node metastasis or distant metas-tasis, 3 cases with tumor local recurrence combined with distant metastasis, 10 cases with elevation of CA19-9. Of the 81 patients, 18 cases responded to chemotherapy, 63 cases underwent resistant to chemotherapy, including 11 cases with primary resistance and 52 cases with acquired resistance. The 63 patients with chemotherapy resistance underwent changing of regimen. (4) Factors influencing postoperative chemotherapy resistance. Results of multivariate analysis showed that chemotherapy cycle<6 is an independent risk factor for postoperative chemotherapy resistance in patients ( hazard ratio=17.18, 95% CI as 2.07-142.28, P<0.05). Conclusion:Adjuvant chemotherapy cycle <6 is an independent risk factor for postoperative chemotherapy resistance for gemcitabine based chemo-therapy in pancreatic cancer patients receiving radical resection.

Objective:To establish a predictive equation for the osmolarity of parenteral nutritional prescription in China.Methods:From July 2019 to September 2019, 2 480 individualized samples of 328 different parenteral nutritional prescriptions (adult) of Peking Union Medical College Hospital were collected, and the osmolarity of parenteral nutritional solution samples was determined by a freezing point reduction method. Pearson χ2 test and a multiple linear regression analysis were utilized to establish a prediction equation for the osmolality of parenteral nutritional solution. Results:The average osmolarity of parenteral nutritional prescription was (1 164.20 ± 252.59) mOsm/kg, and the best fitting equation was (9.66A+ 7.88G+ 3.52F+ 36.4Na+ 27.55K+ 3.38P+ 7.46W-250)/V.Conclusion:The osmolarity is determined accurately and effectively by the fitting equation, which provide a benefit reference for the formulation, review and selection of clinical parenteral nutrition prescription especially in China.
