Object To explore the relationship of 25 (OH) D levels in cord and maternal peripheral blood to understand the maternal and neonatal vitamin D status in Songjiang District of Shanghai. Methods One hundred newborns delivered at the First People’s Hospital afifliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University and 20 pregnant women during November 2010 to January 2011 in Songjiang district were enrolled in the study. The levels of 25 (OH) D in cord and maternal blood were measured by ELISA and compared. Results Mean materna1 serum levels of 25 (OH) D was (23.42±5.23) nmol/L, and cord blood 25 (OH) D was (29.77±12.51) nmol/L. Maternal serum 25 (OH) D was positively correlated with cord blood 25 (OH) D (r=0.84, P<0.001). Conclusions This study shows that the prevalence of vitamin D deifciency in pregnant women is high in Shanghai Songjiang District, which could have adverse effects on newbowns.

60 yr, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, smoking, long term inactivity etc), and duration of operation. The incidence of DVT was 49.3% in control group, 30.0% in group CS alone, 15.0% in group CS + IPC1 and 23.3% in group CS + IPC2 (P

Objective To analyze the expression stability of the three widely used reference genes β-glueuronidase (GUSB), glycera]dehydes-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), β2-microglobulin (β2-M) in Chinese lung cancer tissue specimens and normal lung tissue specimens. Methods Gene expression wasmeasured by quantitative real time PCR and expression stability was analyzed with two widely used softwares genorm and normfinder. Results The intra-and inter-group difference of GAPDH is maximum (The intra and inter-group s is 1.07 and 0.93 respectively, |△ Ct|=2.01±1.06; P =0.000). The mean of these three genes' Ct value is the most stable one analyzed by the two softwares. But the t test showed that the mean of Ct value of GUSB and β2-M is the unique combination that had the minimum intra-and inter-group difference, with no statistically significant differences between normal and malignant samples (The intra-and inter-group s is 0.53 and 0.79 respective]y, |△Ct|= 0.73±0.53; P =0.053). Conclusion It is inappropriate to normalize data derived from lung tissue specimens using one of these three housekeeping genes alone. Among the different combinations of these three genes, the mean of the Ct values of GUSB and β2-M is the best choice as the internal control of lung tissue specimens.

0.05);the frequencies of IFN-? gene +874 site T and A allele showed significant difference between case group and control group(P0.05).Conclusion T allele of IFN? gene+874 site might have a relationship with generation of ovarian cancer,TT genotype might be susceptibility genotype for ovarian cancer.

Objective To investigate the association between polymorphism of protein C inhibitor(PCI)gene G10877T and male infertility,and provide theoretical basis for treatment of male infertility.Methods PCR and sequencing technique were applied to detect PCI gene G10877 T polymorphism in 53 normal control and 102 male infertility.Results There were three genotypes of wild type(G/C),hybridization mutation(G/T)and pure mutation(T/T).The analysis of sequencing indicated that in sperums of a proportion of the male infertile patients,TGG in PCI gene G10877T mutated into TGT.The contrast of BLASTB indicated that this mutation made Trp in 271 position change into Cys.Compared with control group,TT genotypic frequency and T allelic frequency in male infertility group had significant differences(P

Objective To study the genes which simultaneously participate in different carcinogenesis progression in lung adenocarcinoma for biomarkers identification. Methods 10 lung adenocarcinoma samples including pathologic stage Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ were chosen for experiment and their matched normal tissues for control. After hybridization on 20 slides of microarray with 13824 genes, we analyze the expression profiles combined with pathologic stage and clinical prognosis by data mining. The genes differentially coexpressed in different stage and different prognosis samples were the target. Results 119 genes were identified. Among these targets, 26 genes have known to be related to lung cancer, 46 genes were unreported and 47 gene were new. Conclusions The 119 genes were very important during cancer occurrence and development and were the candidate biomarkers in lung adenocarcinoma.

0.05).There were no significant differences in thrombus-associated indexes except a slight change of plasminogen activator antigen.CONCLUSIONS:The incidence of DVT after tumor removal of urinary system is mainly associated with malignant tumor itself, operation wound, postoperative immobilization and the risk factors of thrombus,the administration of reptilase does not increase the incidence of DVT,but might promote the fibrinolytic activity of patients.

Objective To determine the factors contributing to the development of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the lower extremity in patients after hip or knee arthroplasty and hip fracture internal fixation.Methods One hundred and forty-seven consecutive patients receiving hip or knee arthroplasty and hip fracture internal fixation from 2004 to 2005 were included in this study. Their age ranged from 33 to 92 years. Duplex color ultrasonic inspection was performed on veins of the bilateral lower extremities before operation and 2 weeks after operation for detection of DVT. The patients were divided into a DVT group and a DVT-free group based on the development of DVT after operation. Detailed perioperative clinical information about the patients, surgery and anesthesia was collected.Results Lower extremity DVT was found in 42.2% of the patients after operation, while the incidence of proximal DVT was 2.7%. Compared with the DVT-free group, the usage rate and dosage of ephedrine increased significantly, the duration of anesthesia was significantly longer, and the white blood cell count (WBC) on the 1st postoperative day and the highest WBC count were significantly higher in the DVT group(P＜0.05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that the above factors were closely related to DVT.Conclusion Duration of anesthesia ＞ 3 h, ephedrine administration and a marked increase in WBC count after operation are the risk factors for DVT in the lower extremities in patients after hip or knee arthroplasty and hip fracture internal fixation.

Objective To assess the prevalance and distribution of pain in Parkinson' s disease (PD) patients, and to describe the relationship between pain and development of disease and its impact on the quality of life. Methods 113 PD patients were assessed with Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Brief Pain Inventory (BPI), Unified Parkinson' s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), Hoehn-Yahr Scale (H-Y), Hamilton Anxiety and Depression Scale (HRSD, HAMA) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Patients were divided into no pain group, PD-pain group and non-PD-pain group. PD-pain group was divided into PD-pain direct group and PD-pain indirect group. And statistical analysis was performed for each group. Results The incidence of PD-pain was 42. 5% (48/113). And compared with no pain group, PD-pain group had earlier age at onset of disease, longer duration, higher HAMA, HRSD, UPDRS and H-Y score, higher daily L-dopa dose, with statistical significance. Compared with non-PD pain group, the differences in the onset of age (57.4±9.6 vs 65.9±8.7, t= -2.596, P =0.012), HRSD(12. 9±7.9 vs 8.7±3.7, t =2.605, P=0.014) and VAS (61.6±25.9 vs 38.0 ± 30. 1, U = -2.290, P =0.022) were also statistically significant. BPI was different between PD-pain direct group and PD-pain indirect group except normal work and relations with other people. Conclusion Pain is frequent in Parkinsonian population. Most pain was chronic and related to PD (PD-pain). These patients always have earlier onset age and poorer quality of life.
