Objective To confirm untoward reactions in uterine benign disease caused by the application of high intensity fo‐cused ultrasound (HIFU) is lighter .Methods Following‐up 877 cases of patients with uterine benign disease who received HIFU treatment from September 2014 to May 2016 in Zigong Fourth People′s Hospital ,the intra‐and post‐operative untoward reactions were summarized and analyzed .Results We summarized the occurrence of untoward reactions ,treatment measures and prognosis :98% of untoward reactions were SIR A to B level ,and fully recovered after treatment immediately to 1 week without special inter‐vention;2% of untoward reactions were SIR C to D ,also fully recovered after hospital and nursing treatment ;no serious complica‐tions(SIR D and above) occurred .Conclusion HIFU can be used in the treatment of uterine benign diseases in our hospital ,which could provide references for the treatment of uterine benign diseases by using HIFU .

AIM and METHODS:To investigate the effect of L-arginine -nitric oxide pathway on patients with essential hypertension via hemodynamics and neuroendocrinology. 24 essential hypertension patients were randomly divided into two groups, group I was given L-Arg, and groups Ⅱ was given normal saline as control. Blood pressure, heart rate, heart funtion, nitric oxide, angiotensinⅡ, endothelin, thromboxane A 2 and prostacyline were measure in all patients. RESULTS: In group Ⅰ arterial pressure decreased, heart rate increased, cardial output, systolic volume and eject fraction increased, total peripheral resistance decreased. NO and PGI 2 levels were inceased. But at 80 min , with NO concentration decreased, SBP,DBP were increased, TPR, FT and AngⅡ were also increased. While HR, CO, SV and EF were decreased. However TXA 2 and PGI 2 showed not much change. CONCLUSION: Exogenous L-arginine produced a vasodilatory effect by increasing NO production ,caused the change of other hemodynamic function . It also indirectly changed plasma ET, AngⅡlevels by negative feed-back and suppressed the accumulation of platelet.

Objective: To evaluate the potential effect of zinc, copper, and selenium on placental cadmium transport. Methods: Pregnant women were selected from Daye,Hubei Province. Whole blood, cord blood and placenta were collected, and Cd levels were determined by inductively coupled plasma emission mass spectroscopy. Zn, Cu, and Se levels in whole blood were also determined. The potential association between essential elements and placental Cd transport was evaluated. Results: Whole blood Cd (0.8–25.2?g/L) in 47 pregnant women aged 20 to 34 years was significantly higher than that in cord blood(0.020–1.48?g/L). Placental Cd ranged from 0.082 to 3.97 ?g/g dry weight. Multiple linear regression indicated that lower maternal blood Cu was significantly associated with higher cord blood Cd. Placental Cd in pregnant women with lower maternal Zn was significantly higher than that in those with normal Zn level. Placental Cd in pregnant women with lower maternal Se was significantly lower than that in those with normal Se level. Conclusion: Essential elements, such as Cu, Se, and Zn might affect placental Cd transport.
