【Objective】 To investigate the morbidity trend of the preterm delivery.【Methods】 A retrospective study was done on the delivery data in our hospital from 1969 to 1998. Select the cases on annual August as the sam pling units, and divided those 253 cases into three decade groups, to analyze th e obsterical factors affecting the preterm delivery.【Results】 ① The morbidity of the preterm delivery in thirty years was 4.72%(95% CI 4.16, 5.32). ② The re were no obvious changes of the morbidity among the years, and had no seasonal aggregation. ③ The cesarean section rates in the third decade increased signif icantly than those in former two decades (P<0.05). ④ As time goes on, the i ncidence of premature rupture of membrane increased, and that of the preterm del ivery with no obvious complication decreased. The cases with the intrauterine fe tal distress and IVF-ET in the third decade were significantly increased. ⑤ Th e gestation age and birth weight increased significantly, especially in the thir d decade, but the neonatal mortality had no obvious change. 【Conclusions】 Ther e was no reduction of the morbidity of the preterm delivery, further studies sho uld be emphasized. It seems unlikely the increased of cesarean section rates wil l reduce the neonatal mortality. PROM is important factors affecting the preterm delivery, and the IVF women may be at higher risk of preterm delivery.

Objective To study the clinical significances of serum lipoprotein (LP),high sensitivity C- reactive protein (hs CRP),cystatin (Cys-C),apolipoprotein (Apo) in type 2 diabetic mellitus (T2DM) patients with early renal impairment.Methods Totally 96 patients were divided into two groups:50 cases in simple diabetic group (DM) aged 60-73 years,46 cases in diabetic nephropathy group (DN) aged 61-72 years,and 50 healthy persons as normal control group aged 61-68 years.Serum levels of LP(a),hs-CRP,Cys-C,ApoA1 and ApoB were detected.Results Serum levels of LP (a) [(214.8±182.3) mg/L vs.(113.1±76.2) mg/L],Cys-C[(0.95±0.16)mg/L vs.(0.46±0.17) mg/L],hs-CRP (2.57± 1.84) mg/L vs.(1.07±0.38)mg/L] and ApoB [(1.12±0.18) g/L vs.(0.81 ±0.15) g/L ]were higher in T2DM patients than in normal control group(all P＜0.01),while ApoA1 level was lower than in control[(1.02±0.17)g/L vs.(1.27±0.14)g/L,P＜ 0.01].The levels of LP (a) (455.6 ± 263.5 ) mg/L,Cys-C (2.14 ± 0.68 ) mg/L,hs-CRP (7.24±4.55)mg/L and ApoB(1.22±0.17)g/L in DN group were increased compared with DM group (all P＜0.01).Serum levels of ApoA1 were decreased in DN group compared with DM group [(0.88±0.17) g/L vs.(1.02±0.17) g/L,P＜0.01].The serum levels of LP (a) (r=0.487,P＜0.05),Cys-C(r=0.55,P＜0.05),hs-CRP(r=0.478,P＜0.01) and ApoB(r=0.505,P＜0.05) were positively correlated with urinary mAlb in T2DM patients,while ApoA1 was negtively related with mAIb(r=-0.52,P＜0.05).Conclusions The serum LP (a),Cys C,Apo and hsCRP could be sensitive markers of early renal impairment,and their combinatorial measurement offers more value in patients with T2DM.

Objective To explore the reasons and preventive measures of early dislocation after total hip arthroplasty in elder patients. Method A retrospective study was done to analyze dislocation time, reason and time of 168 elderly patients with early anti-dislocation after total hip arthroplasty in joint surgery. Results Only 7 patients (4.1%) had type I joint dislocation, including 2 male and 5 female patients aged 65~89 years. The dislocation happened in 4~5 weeks postoperatively, mainly resulting from hip joint over flexion when urinating in bed, sleep-turning, loaded-moving, walking and stoop and diachoresis. Conclusions For the elderly patients after total hip replacement, it is type I dislocation which happened 4 ~ 5 weeks after operation, more femal than male, reasons including over-exercrse. Effective prevention measures includes regular rehabilitation training, early precautions enhanced mental support and safety nursing.

Objective:To investigate the level of endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H 2S) in contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI), as well as the potential role of H 2S against CIAKI by down-regulating NLRP3 inflammasome. Methods:Twenty-four healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 180-220 g, were randomly divided into three groups according to the random number table method: control group, CIAKI group (iopromide 2.9 g/kg) and CIAKI+NaHS group (NaHS 4 mg/kg for three days before 2.9 g/kg iopromide injection). Kidneys were collected for whole-genome sequencing and bioinformatic analysis. HE and PAS staining were used for kidney histological examination. TUNEL assays were applied to detect renal tubular epithelial injury. Expressions of NLRP3 inflammasome (NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1) were evaluated by immunofluorescence staining. The role of H 2S in contrast (iopromide 200 mgI/kg)-induced injury on human renal tubular epithelium (HK-2 cells) was investigated, and CCK-8 assay was used to detect cellular viability. Results:Compared with the control group, the expression of endogenous H 2S synthetases-related genes [cystathionine β-synthase ( CBS), cystathionine-γ-lyase ( CSE) and 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase ( 3- MST)] was lower in CIAKI group (all P<0.05). The gene expression levels of CBS, CSE and 3- MST were negatively correlated with renal function biomarkers serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen and cystatin-C (all P<0.05). Compared with the CIAKI group, CIAKI+NaHS group showed alleviated creatinine, blood urea nitrogen and cystatin-C, improved histological changes, reduced apoptosis. Moreover, the expression levels of NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 in CIAKI+NaHS group were lower than those in CIAKI group (all P<0.05). In HK-2 cells, compared with the contrast group, the cellular viability was higher in the contrast+NaHS group; reducing endogenous H 2S by CBS inhibitor could enhance contrast-induced cell viability ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Injury of endogenous H 2S system is pivotal to CIAKI pathogenesis. Up-regulation of H 2S ameliorates renal injury of CIAKI rats, which may be related to regulation of NLRP3 inflammasome.
