Objective To investigate treatment of caesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) and associated problem.Methods From January 2011 to January 2013,57 cases with CSP undergoing treatment in Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University were studied retrospectively.Among 57 patients,it was divided into 12 cases treated by curettage (curettage group) ;22 cases treated by uterine artery embolization(embolization group) ;8 cases treated by laparotomy(laparotomy group) and 15 cases treated by transvaginal debridement (transvaginal group).Results (1) Successful rate of curettage group,embolization group,laparotomy group and transvaginal group were 12/12,86％ (19/22),7/8,13/15.(2) The intraoperative blood loss and the hospital stay were 20 (17-28) ml,(5.1 ± 1.9) days in curettage group,10 (5-15) ml,(10.2 ± 3.2) days in embolization group,200 (80-300) ml,(11.3 ± 3.3) days in laparotomy group,50 (45-100) ml,(6.8 ± 1.2) days in transvaginal group.There was statistically different between curettage group and embolization group (P ＜ 0.05).There was statistically different between laparotomy group and transvaginal group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Curettage,uterine artery embolization,abdominal and transvaginal scar debridement surgery can be used in treatment of the CSP.It should be carefully chosen with surgical intervention,if myometrium was implanted greater than 1/2,or near to serosa.It should be carefully chosen with vaginal surgery,if the blood flow signals was rich around the lesion.

Objecfive To investigate the change of V-ATPase B subunits on epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT)in rat renal tubular epithelial cells (NRK52E) stimulated by transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1). Methods NRK52E cells were stimulated by TGF-β1 (10 μg/L)for O h(control),12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h after sefrum-free culture for 24 h.The mRNA and protein expression of E-cadherin,α-SMA,B2 and B1 subunits of V-ATPase were detected by real-time PCR,Western blotting and immunofluorescence. Results After stimulated by TGF-β1 (10 μg/L)for 48 h,the expression of α-SMA was markedly increased(P<0.05),but the expression of E-cadherin was dramatically decreased(P<0.05).Meanwhile,the expressions of V-ATPase subunit B2 was significantly increased (P<0.05).However,the B1 subunit distributed rarely in NRK 52E cells,and did not increase after TGF-β1 stimulation.Double-label immunofluoerscence staining also showed that the V-ATPase B2 subunit was increased in the cytosol.tending to accumulate to the cell membrane after TGF-β1 stimulation. Conclusions The main isoform of V-ATPase distributed in NRK52E cells is B2 subunit.B2 subunit is increased alone with TGF-β1-induced EMT.It may suggest that V-ATPase B2 subunit may play a potential role in TGF-β1-induced tubular EMT and renal fibrosis.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze cerebral hemodynamic changes by means of transcranial Doppler (TCD) and generally to explore the clinical application of this method in hyperlipemia patients. METHODS: Cerebral hemodynamics were detected by TCD in 63 patients with hyperlipidemia and compared with the hemodynamics of 64 health people. RESULTS: No statistically significant changes were found in the cerebral artery blood flow velocity and pulsatility index between the hyperlipidemic and control groups (P>0.05). Spectral shape, however, was abnormal in 52 patients in the hyperlipemia group (82.54%), which was statistically different (P<0.005) from controls. These abnormalities were classed as follows: 22 patients had abnormal spectra of the vertebrobasilar system, 2 patients had abnormal spectrum of the internal carotid arterial system, and 28 patients had abnormal spectra of both systems. The incidence of the abnormal spectra in vertebrobasilar system was significantly higher than the internal carotidartery (P<0.005). CONCLUSION TCD examination can reveal abnormal spectral shape in the cerebralartery and vertebrobasilar arterial systems in hyperlipidemia patients, and thus has some clinical value in determining changes in the brain of patients with high cholesterol levels and atherosclerosis.

Immunoadsorption can selectively remove pathogenic antibodies and has recently achieved good results in neuroimmune diseases. The type and titer of pathogenic antibodies play an important role in the clinical symptoms and severity of patients with autoimmune encephalitis. First-line immunotherapy for autoimmune encephalitis includes steroids, intravenous immunoglobulin, plasma exchange or immunoadsorption. Immunoadsorption selectively and rapidly eliminates autoantibodies and can be an effective therapeutic option as part of multimodal immunotherapy.

Objective To investigate the epidemiology characteristics of crawfish related rhabdomyolysis (RM) in Nanjing, 2016.Methods Outpatient and inpatient electronic medical system of 21 hospitals in Nanjing during 2016 were retrospectively searched, and all the patients diagnosed with RM were selected. The patients with none crayfish-related RM was excluded. The epidemiology characteristics were depicted. The geographic information system (GIS) was used to collect, manage and analyze the spatial data, to visualize it, to analyze the spatial distribution features of the disease, and to explore the cause of disease prediction. GeoDa 1.8 software was used to analyze the global and local spatial auto-correlation.Results A total of 1183 patients with crawfish related RM were initially screened, excluding 59 patients with RM caused by trauma, severe exercise, heat stroke, myositis, poisoning, drugs, and genetic diseases, and 1124 patients were enrolled. The proportion of men was 36.48% (410/1124) with an incidence of 12.54/100 thousands; while of women was 63.52% (714/1124) with an incidence of 21.86/100 thousands. The median age at onset was 34 (28, 43) years. From July to August, the incidence of crawfish related RM was the highest, accounting for 96.53% of the total number of cases. The top four incidence areas were Pukou (41.54/100 thousands), Jianye (25.94/100 thousands), Qixia (25.73/100 thousands), Gulou (25.04/100 thousands), all of which were adjacent to the Yangtze River. Global spatial autocorrelation analysis showed: MoranI = 0.427,Z = 2.646,P = 0.003, suggesting that the crawfish related RM had positive spatial autocorrelation. The results showed that the spatial structure of crawfish related RM existed in Nanjing in 2016. Local spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that the high-high concentration areas were Pukou, Jianye and Liuhe. The incidences of above three areas which were the Nanjing section of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River flowed through the region and surrounding areas were higher than the overall incidence of Nanjing.Conclusion The prevalence of crawfish related RM in Nanjing during 2016 had an obvious region-concentrated character and global spatial autocorrelation with the high prevalent regions mainly concentrated in the urban areas adjacent to the Yangtze River.

As medical advances and surgical techniques have improved the survival rates of children with congenital heart disease (CHD), more and more studies have begun to focus on the quality of survival and long-term development of children with CHD. Cognitive and psychological developmental deficits in children with CHD have been well documented. With the development of brain function assessment and neuroimaging techniques in recent years, it has become possible to elucidate the mechanisms of neurocognitive impairment in patients with CHD from a brain science perspective. Providing targeted early follow-up interventions for the population with CHD and promoting their social adaptation have a great clinical significance. This review summarized recent research findings on neurocognitive developmental outcomes in children with CHD from the perspective of behavioral medicine and brain science. This paper focuses on reviewing the mechanisms of brain microstructure damage and brain network dysfunction which may explain neurocognitive impairment in children with CHD, and further explores the early monitoring and intervention programs suitable for clinical development, aiming to suggest possible directions for improving long-term neurocognitive developmental outcomes for CHD population.

Small for gestational age (SGA) infants are more likely to experience neurocognitive impairments compared to appropriate for gestational age (AGA) infants. This paper reviews recent research on the neurocognitive development of SGA children. SGA can lead to a "brain-sparing effect" due to growth restriction, which may affect cerebral blood flow and brain structure. However, this does not guarantee normal brain development. Restrictive blood flow can result in changes in brain structure, such as reduced total white matter and gray matter volume in various brain regions, including the cerebral cortex, hippocampus and cerebellum, ultimately leading to decreased head circumference. SGA children also exhibit lower scores in all neurocognitive domains, including intelligence, attention, memory, and executive function. This may result in poor academic performance and an increased risk of social, behavioral, and neurological problems, such as cerebral palsy, epilepsy, visual and hearing impairments, as well as comorbidities like attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD), autism spectrum disorder(ASD), anxiety, depression, and schizophrenia. Several risk factors for SGA-related neurocognitive impairments have been identified, including gestational hypertension, abnormal gestational weight, smoking, and catch-up growth. Studies have shown that the best interventions to improve cognitive dysplasia include nutrient supplementation, continued breastfeeding, high-quality education, and appropriate early intervention (responsive parenting) are effective in improving cognitive outcomes for SGA children.
