Journal of Practical Stomatology 2000;0(05):-
Objective: To observed the efects of estrogen and wall-shear stress alone or in combination on the proliferation and function of rat osteoblast in vitro. Methods: Isolated and purified osteoblast from the calvaria of newborn SD rats were cultured and passaged.The cells of passes three to four were treated with 0.1 nmol/L estrogen (goup E),wall-shear stress at 80 r/min (group WSS) or 0.1 nmol/L combined with wall-sher stress at 80 r/min (group EWSS) respectively.Cell proliferation was studied by MTT assay and alkline phosphatase (ALP ) by a ALP test kit. Results: Both the estrogen and wall-shear stress alone caused the increase of cells proliferation and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity.But long period of wall-shear stress decreased the cell proliferation.Wall-shear stress increased ALP activity more quickly and more remarkably than the estrogen did.The combination of estrogen and wall-shear stress increased the cell proliferation and the ALP activity.In the early stage (6~24 h) of the cell proliferation, the combination functioned synergicly.The combination functioned antagonistically on ALP from 6 to 12 h while synergicly after 12 h. Conclusion: Estrogen and wall-shear stress can elevate the cell proliferation, ALP activity of osteoblasts in vitro.
3.Possibility of reserving uterus during severe postpartum hemorrhage
Chinese Journal of Perinatal Medicine 2011;14(9):540-544
Objective To investigate the possibility of reserving uterus during severe postpartum hemorrhage. MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 138 cases of severe postpartum hemorrhage (blood loss ≥2000 ml) from January 1, 2003 to December 31, 2009. Results Among 138 cases of severe postpartum hemorrhage, uterine atony (n= 60, 43. 38 % ) was the first cause and the second was placental factor (n= 55, 39.86 %). The blood loss varied from 2000 ml to 10 000 ml and the mean level was about (3004± 1473) ml. The volume of blood transfusion for these patients varied from 800 ml to 7200 ml. Among these patients, the blood loss of 108 cases reserved uteri was from 2000 ml to 7500 ml, with the average of (2564±932) ml; while for 30 cases performed with hysterectomy, the blood loss was about 2500 to 10 000 ml averagly (4653± 1857) ml (t=8. 57, P=0.00). These patients were divided into two groups according to time series. Twelve cases of hysterectomy were performed during 2003to 2005, and the hysterectomy rate was 0. 47‰; 18 cases of hysterectomy were performed during 2006 to 2009, and the hysterectomy rate was 0. 36‰. The average blood loss of the above two groups was (3783±861) ml and (5233±2124) ml respectively (t=2. 234, P=0. 034). Among all the cases with blood loss ≥ 3000 ml, uteri were reserved in 24 cases with the average blood loss of (3818 ± 1284) ml; while hysterectomy were performed in 27 cases with average blood loss of (4900 ± 1789) rnl (t = 2. 453, P =0. 018). The time for blood loss to 3000 ml in the two groups was (160±129) min and (100±67) min,respectively, and the difference was significant (t=2. 113, P = 0.04).The uteri of six cases with postpartum hemorrhage over 4000 ml were successfully reserved, and average bleeding amount was 5570 ml.Two patients among the 138 women died of amniotic fluid embolism.The perinatal mortality rate was 3. 73%.ConclusionsThe postpartum hemorrhage volume and velocity is the key point to decide whether to reserve the uterus or not.For the population with high risk factors,prophylaxis treatment with prostaglandins should be initiated to reduce the bleeding volume.Uterine packing might be an effective treatment to stop postpartum hemorrhage, especially for those bleeding due to placenta previa.

Objective To explore the relationship between total bile acid(TBA)concentration and fetal pulmonary surfactant in intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy(ICP).Methods Fifry five patients with ICP(ICP group)who received cesarean section from April 2008 to February 2010 in Second Xiangya Hospital,Central South University,were recruited.The general conditions of the neonates within 7 days after birth in ICP group were recorded.Those with fetal distress,neonatal asphyxia,or neonatal respiratory distress syndrome were referred as pathological neonates, others were referred as normal neonates. Over the same period, 23 healthy gravidas were recruited as control group. Enzymatic method was used to detect the TBA concentrations in maternal blood, cord blood and amniotic fluid. ELISA was employed to measure the urfactant protein A (SP-A) concentration in cord blood. High performance liquid chromatography system was used to detect the concentrations of phesphatidylcholine (PC),phosphatidylinositol (PI),lysophosphatidylcholine ( LPC), and sphingomyelin(SM) in amniotic fluid. Results ( 1 ) The concentrations of TBA in maternal blood, cord blood and amniotic fluid were ( 30. 1 ± 7.9 ), (9. 3± 3. 3 ) and (4. 4 ± 1.5 ) mmol/L in ICP group, (4. 8 ± 2. 2), (4. 9 ± 0. 9) and ( 1.4 v 1.1 ) mmol/L in control group, respectively. The differences between the two groups were significant ( P < 0. 05 ). ( 2 ) The SP-A concentration in cord blood in ICP group was ( 29. 5 ± 6. 4 ) μg/L, significantly higher than that in control group, which was ( 22. 6 ± 7. 4 )μg/L ( P< 0. 05 ). ( 3 ) There were 20 pathological neonates and 35 normal neonates in ICP group. In pathological neonates, the concentrations of TBA and SP-A in cord blood were (10.9 ± 2.2) mmol/L,(37.0 ± 5.9 ) μg/L, respectively; and were ( 8.0 ± 2. 8 ) mmol/L, ( 26. 7 ± 4. 8 ) μg/L in normal neonates. The differences were significant (P< 0. 05 ). (4) There was a positive correlation between TBA concentration in cord blood and in maternal blood ( r1 = 0. 706, P<0. 05 ). The TBA concentration in cord blood was positively correlated with SP-A concentration as well ( r3 = 0. 494,P < 0. 05 ). (5) The PC and PI concentrations in amniotic fluid were (65.4 ± 7.2) mg/L and ( 3. 8 ± 0. 6 ) mg/L in ICP group, ( 69. 7 ±3.7) mg/L and (4. 3 ± 0. 7 ) mg/L in control group, respectively. The differences were significant (P <0. 05 ). The concentration of LPC in amniotic fluid in ICP group was (4. 8 ±0. 9) mg/L, significantly higher than that in control group (P<0. 05), which was (4. 2 ±0. 6) mg/L. The concentration of SM in amniotic fluid was (3.5±0. 8) mg/L in ICP group, (4. 0 ± 0. 5 ) mg/L in control group, with no significant difference ( P>0. 05 ). (6) The ratio of PC/LPC in ICP group ( 14. 2± 3. 2 ) was significantly lower than that in control group ( 16. 9 ± 2. 5 ) ( P< 0. 05 ). ( 7 ) The TBA concentration in cord blood was negatively correlated with PC and PI concentrations (r1 = -0. 561, r2 = -0. 407, P < 0. 05 ), and had no correlation with LPC concentration (r3 = 0. 260, P> 0. 05). Conclusions ( 1 ) The fetal TBA concentrations in both cord blood and amniotic fluid of patients with ICP was higher than those of healthy gravidas, they were also positively correlated with maternal TBA concentration. (2) ICP resulted in the change of fetal pulmonary surfactant and this change was associated with TBA concentrations in both cord blood and amniotic fluid.
