Spontaneous abortion is one of the most common gestational conditions, with the morbidity of 1% to 5% in married women. It is a serious problem troubling women at the reproductive age. There are many factors causing spontaneous abortion, among them, spontaneous abortion resulting from endocrine abnormalities can be detected and treated. Prolactin is a major endocrine hormone participating in reproductive regulation and playing an important role in early pregnancy implantation and pregnancy maintenance. When there are unusual levels it is closely related to spontaneous abortion, leading to a necessity to further study the relationship between them. International and domestic research developments in recent years about the correlation between prolactin and spontaneous abortion are discussed in this paper.

In recent years,with the deepening research on autoinflammatory diseases (AID),more and more diseases have been found and included in the AID category.The clinical manifestations of AID are various,but most of them are not specific.Therefore,it is difficult to distinguish AID from infectious diseases,tumors and other autoimmune diseases,which causes misdiagnosis and delayed diagnosis.This article aims at discussing about the clinical diagnosis and treatment procedure of AID.

The atrio-ventricular valves of the normal heart in 200 Chinese cadavers of different ages were studied. The right atrioventricular valves were classified into three types and the left were classified into two types, according to the number of the main cusps. It was found that percentage of the second type (53.5%) of the right atrio-ventricular valves was higher than that of the first type (43.5%) and the first type (83.0%) of the left atrio-ventricular valves is in the majority, while the second type (17.0%) represents only a small percentage.An accessory cusp is situated between two main cusps. The accessory cusp was found in the right atrio-ventricular valves of 132 cases (66.0%), the majority of which had only one accessory cusp (95 cases. 72.0%), and among them there were 65 cases (37.4%) in which antero-medial accessory cusps were present. The accessory cusps were found in the left atrio-ventricular valves of 103 cases (51.5%), most of them also had only one cusp (92 cases 89.3%) and among them there were 71 cases (62.3) in which postero-medial accessory cusps were present.If the total number of the main and the accessory cusps was considered, in the right ventriculus, four cusps were found in 40.5% of the cases, five in 29.0%, three in 19.5%, six in 9.0%, two in 1.5%, seven in 0.5%; while in the left ventriculus, three cusps were found in 51.5% of the cases, two in 37.0%, four in 11.0% and five in 0.5%.The size of the valves was measured. In the right ventriculus the postero-medial valve is the broadest (40.1 mm), the postero-lateral valve is the highest (24.5 mm). In the left ventriculus the postero-lateral valve is the broadest (36.9 mm), the antero-medial valve is the hightest (20.8 mm). The associated valves are usually larger than the other common main valves, the diameters of which are larger than that of the accessory valves. The perimeter of left artrio-ventricular ring is 79.69 mm and the right is 97.79 mm.

Vessels and nerves within the medial arm flap were studied in 40 upper limbsof adult cadavers.The chief results are as follows:1.The medial arm cutaneous arteries may arise from the superior ulnar colla-teral artery(45.3%?4.09),the brachial artery(25.0%?3.50),the deepbrachial artery(8.7%?2.32),the axillary artery(5.4?1.86%),or others(thesubscapular,the posterior circumflex humeral,the inferior ulnar collateral artery andmusculo-cutaneous arteries of the triceps,the biceps and the teres major).Thecaliber of its origin from the superior ulnar collateral artery is 1.73?0.06mm.Itaccompanies the ulnar nerve and the muscular branch of the radial nerve whichpasses to the medial head of the triceps.2.The medial arm cutaneous arteries may be divided into four types accordingto their number of sources:one-source type——10.0%?4.74;two-source type——52.5%?7.9;three-source type——32.5%?7.41;five-source type——5.0%?3.45.The chief cutaneous vein of the medial arm flap is the basilic vein and its tributa-ries.The caliber at the terminal end of the basilic vein is 4.76?0.25mm.3.The blood vessels within the medial arm flap anastomose into networks whichdrain from the whole flap.4.The diameter of upper part of the medial arm cutaneous nerve is 1.24mm.The diameter of upper part of the posterior arm cutaneous nerve is 0.5～1.0mm.The diameter of upper part of the medial forearm cutaneous nerve is 2.26mm.5.The blood vessels and the clinical applications of the medial arm flap werediscussed in this article.

According to existing problems in polysaccharide determination methods in new Chinese drug applications, the method suitability, chemical reference selection, components interference and method research were introduced. The author suggests that suitable determination method should be selected according to the structure and property of the polysaccharide, and validated. Some influent factors should be examined to assure the accuracy of the method, such as the stability and using amount of the visualizing reagent, visualizing time, maximum detection wavelength etc. Monosaccharide and other water soluble components should be removed from polysaccharide sample, and suitable reference substance and detection wavelength should be selected. It should pay attention to mutual interference of neutral and acidic saccharide, and use inhibitor to eliminate the interference. Because the slopes of the standard curves are different for different monosaccharide, it is proposed that the types and ratios of the monosaccharide in heteroglycan should be understood, and mixed reference substance solution in the ratio is prepared for determination.

Following great progress on the pathogenesis of lupus nephritis (LN) and publication of many high quality (prospective,randomized,multicenter) clinical trials of glucocorticoids-plus-immunosuppressive interventions,the American College of Rheumatology (ACR),European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR)/European Renal Association-European Dialysis and Transplant Association (ERA-EDTA),and Kidney Disease:Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) published or renewed in succession in 2012 special guidelines or recommendations for screening,casedefinition,treatment and management of LN.The paper introduces the key contents to provide reference for the clinical practice.

Gastric cancer is a malignant tumor with the second highest incidence and mortality in the world, and China is one of the countries with the highest incidence of gastric cancer in the world. Research on the regulation of cell cycle protein can provide effective evidence for the mechanism of tumor and gene therapy.G1/S phase is the key point for cell cycle regulation,Cyclin D1 and CDK4 gene and P16 play important roles in this phase and have great correlation with gastric cancer,but the exact relationship between these genes and gastric cancer is still unclear. In order to better understand the expression of Cyclin D1 and CDK4 gene and P16 in gastric cancer, the related researches in recent years were summarized in this paper.

This study was aimed to explore the tic disorders ( TD ) pathogenesis induced by chronic rhinitis . A total of 400 TD children were all investigated with self-made TD general questionnaire , Yale Global Tic Severity Scale ( YGTSS ) , TD diagnostic criteria by DSM-IV , chronic rhinitis diagnostic criteria by Zhu-Fu-Tang Textbook of Pediatrics ( 7th edition ) . A total of 258 TD children accompanied with chronic rhinitis were screened . Levels of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets , immunoglobulins , IL-6 , TNF-α and other related immunological indexes were detected to analyze pathogenesis. The results showed that the nose movement symptom scores of TD children with rhinitis were higher than the score of TD children without rhinitis . The score of arm-lifting and hand movement in TD children with rhinitis was lower than the score in the TD children without rhinitis . And the YGTSS score of TD children with rhinitis was higher than TD children without rhinitis. Compared with TD children without rhinitis, the level of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets in TD children with rhinitis was obviously reduced ( P < 0 . 05 ) . Compared with TD children without rhinitis , the level of immunoglobulins in TD children with rhinitis was slightly reduced . The level of IL-6 in TD children with rhinitis tended to increase , but the level of TNF-α tended to reduce . It was concluded that chronic rhinitis is one of the factors to induce TD .

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic rheumatic disease involving the spine and sacral hip.AS is the prototype disease of seronegative arthritis of the spine.Besides the violations of the spine,AS can also lead to violations of the peripheral joints,even the eyes,intestine,aortic root,and other tissues and organs.The pathogenesis of AS has remained unclear.AS,a genetic disease,is influenced by the genetic and environmental factors.Studies have suggested that HLA-B27 is the most critical genes to AS,and forming three kinds of hypotheses associated with HLA-B27.This paper reviews the molecular genetics and pathogenesis of AS.
