OBJECTIVE:To compare the clinical efficacy of raloxifene and clomiphene in the treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)complicated with infertility. METHODS:In retrospective study,clinical information of 137 PCOS patients with infertility in our hospital during Jun. 2012-Feb. 2015 were selected and divided into raloxifene group(70 cases)and clomiphene group(67 cases)according to therapy plan. Raloxifene group received Raloxifene tablet 120 mg at the fifth day of menstrual cy-cle,qd,for consecutive 5 d. Clomiphene group received Clomiphene citrate capsule 100 mg at the fifth day of menstrual cycle, qd,for consecutive 5 d. Both groups received B-ultrasound to detect the follicular diameter and endometrial development at the twelfth day of menstrual cycle. When endometrial thickness was ≥7 mm and the diameter of one follicle was ≥18 mm at least,all patients received abdominal subcutaneous injection of Triptorelin acetate injection 0.1 mg to induce ovulation;after 48 h,ovulation was confirmed by B ultrasound. The patients with insufficient luteal function should take dydrogesterone 10 mg as appropriate,q12 h,till 15 d after ovulation. The endometrial thickness,the number of follicles with diameter≥18 mm and follicular maturation time were compared between 2 groups on the day of injection. The sex hormone levels before treatment and on the day of injection,as well as ovulation,outcome indexes and the occurrence of ADR in 2 groups were compared. RESULTS:The endometrial thickness of raloxifene group was greater than that of clomiphene group;the number of follicles with diameter ≥18 mm was more than clo-miphene group;the follicular maturation time was shorter than clomiphene group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in serum levels of P,E2,FSH and LH between 2 groups(P>0.05). Compared to before treatment,there was no statistical significance in serum levels of P,E2,FSH or LH in 2 groups on the day of injection(P>0.05). Serum levels of LH in 2 groups were decreased significantly,and serum level of LH in raloxifene group was significantly lower than in clomiphene group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The ovulation rate of raloxifene group was significantly higher than clomiphene group,with statistical significance(P<0.05);while the pregnancy rate,abortion rate,continuous pregnan-cy rate of 2 groups had no statistical significance(P>0.05). There was no statistical significance in the total incidence of ADR (5.71% vs. 8.96%)between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Raloxifene has better ovulation induction effect than clomi-phene,and it can improve the sex hormone levels of PCOS patients with infertility,with few ADR,and similarity in long-term clinical effect with clomiphene.

ObjectiveTo study the expression level of HER-2 gene in the same pathological stage gastric cancer,and discuss the feasibility of HER-2 gene being the prognostic indicator.MethodsThe expression of HER-2 in gastric cancer was detected by immunohistocehmical technique and analyzed in relation with the pathological stage and prognosis of the patients.ResultsThe total positive rate of HER-2 in gastric cancer was 33.64% (37/110).In stage Ⅱ,the weakly and strongly positive rates of gastric cancer were 21.31% ( 13/61 ) and 9.84% (6/61).In stage Ⅲ,the weakly and strongly positive rates of gastric cancer were 20.41% (10/49) and 16.33% (8/49).In the same pathological stage,the survival rate of patients with negative HER-2 expression was higher than weakly positive ones.And the survival rate of patients with strongly positive HER-2 expression was the lowest.The difference had statistical significance (P < 0.01).ConclusionThe prognosis of patients in the same stage was correlated with the expression level of HER-2,which can be used to evaluate the biological behavior and prognosis of gastric cancer.

ObjectiveTo investigate the diagnosis and correlative factors of suspected severe acute respiratory synd rome (SARS) cases, and finally, complete the diagnosis and treatment.MethodsTo analyze the clinical, laboratory data,chest radiog raph and treatment of 100 suspected SARS cases.ResultsAmong 100 suspected SARS cases,66 were diagnosed as SARS,4 were mycoplasma l pneumonia, 2 were pulmonary tuberculosis,the others were general bacteria pne umonia.Conclusions SARS hasn't characteristic clin ical manifestation.Because there is not a gold diagnosis standard up to now, the disinfection and isolation of suspected SARS cases should be treated as SARS c ases. In order to prevent missed and misdiagnosis, the diagnosis and treatment s hould be synthetically thought.

The polymorphism in the exon 4 of FcRL3 gene was evaluated by PCR-FPLR in 506 patients with Graves' disease (GD), 80 with Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT) and 261 normal subjects in Chongqing. The data suggest that 82G allele in exon 4 of FcRL3 gene may be susceptible to GD in male patients of Chongqing Hart nationality.

Objective To investigate the prophylactic effect of thymosin α_1 on acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD)in elderly patients.Methods One hundred and twenty COPD patients were randomized into two groups(n=60 for each).Patients in the treatment group received thymosin α_1 1.6 mg subcutaneously,2/week for 8 weeks;while patients in control group received normal saline instead.Serum CD3,CD4,CD8,IrA,IgG and IgM levers were measured,and the pulmonary function were examined before and 2.12 months after treatment.Results In treatment group the recurrence interval of AECOPD Was extended:the attack frequency and persistence time of AECOPD were significantly lower in cutuparison with those of the control group(P<0.05).CD4 and CD4/CD8 levels were significanfly increased(P<0.05)after treatment of thymosincd.Conclusion Thymosin α_1 Can protect acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in elderly patients.

Objective To evaluate the frequency, the change of sleep structure ,pulmonary function and respiratory muscle functions of overlap syndrome: a serious respiratory disease of sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD), for the further study of clinical and experimental characteristics.Methods 44 consecutive, unselected SAS patients (39 males and 5 females) were analyzed. All received continuous and overnight polysomonography monitoring with HMS-5500 polysomnography system (Respironics Inc USA) in our sleep laboratory. A thorough and detailed collection of case history, physical examination, blood gas analysis and pulmonary functions, as well as respiratory muscle functions and right ventricular functions were taken before the polysomnographic examination.Results A chronic obstructive spirographic pattern, defined by a FEV1/VC ratio (60%,was observed in 16 of 44 SAS patients (36.3%, the overlap group). The overlap patients were older (62.6±12.5 vs 54.7±11.4 years) than the simple SAS patients. The number of heavy smokers in overlap group was more than that in simple SAS group (600±210 vs 550±127 cigarette-year). There were signi-ficant difference in FEV1.0% (58.70±4.76 vs 86.42±7.50%, P<0.01), maximal expiration pressure (MEP,198.54±21.76 vs 129.3±31.9 cm H2O, P<0.01), maximal inspiration pressure (MIP, 72.75±11.4 vs 111.3±33.6 cm H2O, P<0.01) and minimal nocturnal oxyhemoglobin saturation (63.7±14.7 vs 74.8±11.4%, P<0.01) between two groups. And the total recording time (513±45.8 vs 521±48.6 min, P>0.05), however, showed no significant difference between two groups, while the percentage of total sleep time/total recorded time (73.4±9.6 vs 87.6±8.8%, P<0.01), rapid eye movement sleep time/total sleep time (6.0±4.3 vs 8.9±5.8%, P<0.01) in the overlap group were significantly decreased, and apnea plus hypopnea index (AHI) were significantly higher (54.6±20.3 vs 39.9±16.8, P<0.05) in the overlap group. Also, the incidence rate of right heart failure measured by cardiac ultrasonography was higher in the overlap group than in the simple SAS group. No differences were found in body mass index (BMI) and daytime arterial blood gas analysis between overlap group and simple SAS group.Conlusion Sleep apnea plus hypopnea index, as well as nocturnal hypoxemia, were more obviours in overlap syndrome than in the simple SAS patients. Also pulmonary function and respiratory muscle function were more significantly impaired, indicating a higher risk of developing pulmonary hypertension, cor pulmonale and respiratory failure in overlap syndrome.
