Objective To evaluate the curative effect of laparoscopic myomectomy combined with preoperative gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) in treating myoma patients with uterus volume large than 12 weeks of pregnancy size. Methods 46 patients with uterine volume over 12 gestational weeks from August 2009 to August 2016 were selected as research objects. Leuprolide was injected subcutaneously for three to six times, and then laparoscopic myomectomy was performed one month later. The changes of volumes in uterus and myoma before and after medication were observed as well as the changes of hemoglobin. And postoperative recurrence of uterus myoma was followed up. Results The average volume of the uterus in the 46 patients, detected by B ultrasound, before GnRH-a treatment was (705.47 ± 282.37) cm3, and the average volume of the uterus after GnRH-a treatment was (331.95 ± 84.53) cm3, which was shortened by 59.35%, with significant difference (P < 0.05). The volume of uterus myoma was (237.59 ± 138.46) cm3 before GnRH-a treatment and (81.59 ± 46.44) cm3 after GnRH-a treatment, shortened by 65.66%, with significant difference (P < 0.05). The hemoglobin value was (97.80 ± 20.19) g/L before GnRH-a and (119.63 ± 12.06) g/L after GnRH-a treatment, with significant difference (P < 0.05). Follow-up for 3 weeks to 5 years, the surgeries were accomplished successfully, and no case was transferred to laparotomy. Conclusion Preoperative GnRH-a could shorten volume of uterus myoma, increase hemoglobin value and ensure performance of laparoscopic myomectomy for myoma patients with uterus volume large than 12 weeks of pregnancy size.

Objective To assess the relationship between fat metabolic parameters and androgen concentration in the cord blood of newborns of mothers with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Methods This cross-sectional study included PCOS women (n=55) and neonatal, and 40 cases with matched body mass index (BMI) were used as control. The clinical data including height, body mass, waist circumference, hip circumference of PCOS group, and length and head circumference in newborns after delivery were measured and compared. Blood lipid level, serum insulin and testosterone level were detected using umbilical artery-vein mixed cord blood after delivery. Regression analysis was used to analyze the influence factors of neonatal cholesterol and testosterone levels. Results The neonatal birth weight, head circumference, cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride level were significantly lower, birth height and testosterone level were significantly higher, in PCOS group than those of control group (P<0.05). Values of waist to hip ratio, BMI, cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and testosterone levels were significantly higher in PCOS group than those of control group (P<0.05). The insulin, cholesterol and triglyceride levels of PCOS mother were risk factors for neonatal cholesterol level(P < 0.05). The cholesterol, triglyceride and free testosterone levels of PCOS mother were risk factors for increased neonatal free testosterone (P < 0.05). Conclusion Mother with PCOS may affect fetal birth weight, head circumference and cord blood lipid metabolism, which may be related with the elevated level of testosterone during the fetal period.

Objective:
To investigate the lunch supply in primary and middle school dining rooms in Ningbo City, so as to provide the scientific evidence for guiding rational dietary supply and improving student health.
Methods:
A primary school and a junior high school were randomly sampled from each of 10 counties (districts) in Ningbo City. Food receipt and balance, dinner supply and number of students with meals were collected from school dining rooms with questionnaires formulated by Zhejiang Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and all foods in school dining rooms provided by enterprises were sorted and recorded. Daily mean lunch food, energy and nutrient supply was calculated per student, and evaluated with the Student Electronic Nutritionist platform, the 2013 revision of Chinese Dietary Reference Intakes and the national criteria of Nutrition Guidelines of Student Meals (WS/T 554-2017).
Results:
Six urban primary schools, six urban junior high schools, four rural primary schools and four rural junior high schools were enrolled, and there were two schools with meals provided by enterprises and eighteen schools with meals provided by their dining rooms. Appropriate supply of cereals and potatoes, excessive supply of livestock and poultry meat, vegetable oil and salt, and low supply of fruits, eggs, milk and soybean and nuts were found in primary and junior high school, and notably, milk and fruits were not provided by any rural junior high schools. Excessive energy supply was found in primary schools (excessive energy supply in rural primary schools and appropriate in urban primary schools), and appropriate energy supply was seen in junior high schools. High energy ratios of protein and fat, low energy ratio of carbohydrate, low supply of diatery fiber, vitamin A and calcium, appropriate supply of vitamin B1, B2 and C, and sufficient supply of iron and zinc were found in primary and junior high school.
Conclusion
Unreasonable dietary structure, excessive energy supply and nutrient imbalance are found in lunch supply by primary and junior high schools in Ningbo City.

Objective To study the clinical and pathological features in the elderly patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP). Methods The features of the clinical manifestation, cerebrospinal fluid, electromyogram(EMG) and the biopsy results of sural nerve were presented and analyzed in 11 elderly patients with CIDP. Results Two cases had history of upper respiratory tract infection before the onset. As the initial symptoms , there were three cases with distal limb numbness, five cases with both distal lower extremities numbness, two cases with both distal upper extremities numbness and one case with difficulties to raise his head. Motor disorder was common to all the patients. There were eight patients with sensory dysfunction, three with limb muscle atrophy, one with muscle tenderness, eight with tendon reflexes weakened or disappeared, five with cranial nerve damaged, three with the autonomic nerve lesion, one with respiratory muscle involved, three with relapse. The score of the peak incidence as Modified Rankin was 3.02 points on average. Five cases had obvious albuminocytolgoic dissociation by the examination of cerebrospinal fluid, ten cases had neurogenic damage and one case had a combined myogenic and neurogenic damage by the EMG. The biopsy showed that six cases were with amyelination,six cases with inflammatory cell infiltrated, two cases with obvious remyelination, two cases with auxiliary fibers degeneration.And the methylprednisolone therapy was effective for eight cases. Conclusions The numbness of the distal limb is the initial symptom of the elderly patients with CIDP,most of whom are with sensory dysfunction ,and some with cranial nerves and autonomic nerve damage. The sural nerve biopsy has an important value for the diagnosis of the elderly with CIDP. The methylprednisolone therapy is proved to be effective for most patients.
