Objective: To identify corticotropin releasing hormone(CRH) positive cells from the human placenta. Methods: Using immunohistochemistry to show the cellular expression of placental CRH. Results: During human pregnancy, placental CRH level rose markedly from undetectable amounts prior to 20 weeks gestation to nearly the peak level. Conclusion: The presence of CRH in maternal plasma is attributed to the placental production and subsequent release of this hormone into the maternal circulation. [

The animal models for pharmacologic assessment of drugs against premature delivery arereviewed, which include the measure of spontaneous delivery time between the first and the second pups in term pregnancy rats, the delay in the onset of labor in rats and premature delivery artificially induced by lipopolysaccharide, interleukin 1 ? and prostaglandin F 2? in mice.

Objective To estimate the expression of ER and PR in the endometrium of both intrauterine adhesions (IUA) and non-IUA specimens. Methods The endometrium specimens from patients undergoing hysteroscopy for confirmed moderate IUA (n=20: 10 in proliferative phase, and 10 in secretory phase) were enrolled as the IUA group in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital from October 2014 to August 2015. The specimens scheduled for hysteroscopy due to infertility were recruited into the control group (n=26: 13 in proliferative phase, and 13 in secretory phase). Immunohistochemistry and quantificational real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) were used to detect the expression of ER-α, ER-β and PR in endometrium with different menstrual period in both groups. Results (1) Location: in both groups, the expression of ER-α, ER-β and PR appeared in the endometrial glandular epithelial cells and the stromal cells of the endometrium. The positive brown granules of ER-α, ER-β and PR appeared mainly in cell nucleus. (2) ER-α and ER-β in the endometrium:the protein expression of ER-α and ER-β in IUA group (proliferative phase: 0.657 ± 0.028, 0.493 ± 0.023; secretory phase: 0.537 ± 0.020, 0.365 ± 0.031) were significantly higher than those of control group (proliferative phase: 0.586 ± 0.025, 0.437 ± 0.022; secretory phase:0.459 ± 0.025, 0.323 ± 0.017;all P<0.01). And the ER-αand ER-βmRNA expressions in IUA group were 2.524 ± 0.296, 1.947 ± 0.339, higher than those of control group in the proliferative phase (all P<0.01), and in the secretory phase (1.977±0.333, 1.345±0.292) were also higher than those in the control group (all P<0.01). (3) PR in the endometrium: the protein expression of PR was not significantly different between IUA group (proliferative phase:0.248±0.025, secretory phase:0.194±0.024) and control group (proliferative phase: 0.234 ± 0.019, secretory phase: 0.186 ± 0.020; P=0.162, 0.359). Meanwhile, there were no statistical differences in the mRNA expression of PR in both groups with different menstrual period (proliferative phase: 1.144 ± 0.384 versus 0.981 ± 0.306, secretory phase: 0.763 ± 0.237 versus 0.631 ± 0.203; P=0.270, 0.166). (4) ER and PR expression in menstrual cycles: the expression of ER-α, ER-β and PR in the IUA group changed with the menstrual cycles, and their expression in the proliferative phase were higher than those in the secretory phase (all P<0.05). Conclusions The expression of ER-α and ER-β in the endometrium of IUA patients changes with menstrual cycle, and are higher compared with those in normal endometrium. No difference is found in the PR expression between the two groups.

Background Neovascular glaucoma is a type of refractory glaucoma.Biological amnion combined with glaucoma valve implantation is a primary therapy and its long-term effectiveness is noticeable. Objective The goal of this Survey was to evaluate the effectiveness of biological amnion combined with glaucoma valve implantation for neovascular glaucoma and compare the clinical outcome with simple glaucoma valve implantation. Methods This was a retrospective observational case series.The clinical data of 44 eyes of 44 patients received biological amnion combined with glaucoma valve implantation for neovascular glaucoma and 43 eyes of 43 patients received simple glaucoma valve implantation for neovascular glaucoma were retrospectively analyzed and compared.The age,sex and disease-cause were matched between these two groups.Patients were followed-up for 24 months after operation.Surgery success was identified as the intraocular pressure(IOP)<21 mmHg after operation.Written informed consent was obtained from each patient prior to the operation.Results The IOP was<21 mmHg throughout the follow-up duration in both groups.No significant difierence was found in the IOP value in 1 week after operation between two groups(t=-5.34,P=0.60).However,IOP values were lower in biological amnion combined with glaucoma valve implantation group in 3,12 and 24 months after operation than those of simple glaucoma valve implantation(t=6.64,t=5.00,t=7.81,P<0.01).Operation successful rates in biological amnion combined with glaucoma valve implantation group were 97.73％.93.18％。90.24％and 82.05％in 1 week,3 months,12 months and 24 months respectively after operation.and those in simple glaucoma valve implantation were 95.35％,71.43％,65.00％and 60.53％in corresponding time points,showing considerably significant differences between two groups (χ2=7.06,χ2=7.47,χ2=4.37,P<0.05).There was no significant difference in Ihe number of eyes with complication between the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusion The biological amnion combined with glaucoma valve implantation surgery may be more effective and safe for the treatment of neovascular glaucoma than with glaucoma va]ve only.

Objective To assess the safety of early subcutaneous injection of a low-dose low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) nadroparin for prevention of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH).Methods The patients with sICH who early using nadroparin or lower limb intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) for prevention of DVT were enrolled.A nadroparin group continuously injected nadroparin 0.4 ml/d subcutaneously for 10 days at day 4 after admission and an IPC group used lower limb IPC.Head CT was reexamined and hematoma volume changes were evaluated at day 3,5,and 14 after admission.The hemorrhagic events during the course of treatment were documented,and the lower limb DVT was examined by color Doppler sonography.Results A total of 94 patients with acute sICH (n =41 in the nadroparin group,n =53 in the IPC group) who early use of nadroparin or IPC for prevention of DVT were enrolled.Fourteen patients had lower limb DVT,5 (12.2％) of them were in the nadroparin group and 9 (17.0％) of them were in the IPC group.However,there was no significant difference in the incidence of DVT between the two groups (x2 =0.418; P =0.518).During the treatment,no patient experienced increased intracranial hematoma and rebleeding.Conclusion Early subcutaneous injection of low-dose nadroparin for the prevention of DVT in patients with sICH is safe.

Objective Toinvestigatetheclinicalsignificanceofplasmamatrixmetalloproteinase9 (MMP-9)intheformationofdelayedcerebraledemaafterintracerebralhemorrhage.Methods The clinical data of 107 patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage treated with conservative medical treatment were analyzed retrospectively. According to the clinical features and imaging changes,they were divided into either a delayed cerebral edema group (case group n=39)or a non-delayed cerebral edema group (control group n =68 ). The plasma MMP-9 level was detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay within 24 h after onset. The patients performed head CT scan again at day 7 and 14 after admission. The changes of hematoma and edema volume were detected. All the possible factors associated with the formation of delayed cerebral edema were firstly analyzed by the univariate analysis. Univariate analysis showed that the variables with significant differences were enrolled into multiple logistic regression analysis. Results TheplasmaMMP-9levelofthedelayedbrainedemagroupwassignificantlyhigherthanthatof the control group,they were 189 ± 51 and 118 ± 27 mg/L respectively (P<0. 01). The result of univariate analysis showed that age,history of smoking,blood glucose level,baseline hematoma volume,and National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS )score on admission might be associated with the formation of delayed cerebral edema after intracerebral hemorrhage. Logistic regression analysis showed that MMP-9 level (OR,9. 745,95%CI 6. 754-15. 466,P<0. 01),baseline hematoma volume (OR,2. 411,95%CI 1. 190-2. 728,P =0. 018),blood glucose level on admission (OR,1. 327,95%CI 1. 133 -1. 850,P =0.004),and NIHSS score (OR,1. 867,95%CI 1. 272-2. 364,P=0. 020)were the independent risk factorsfortheformationofdelayedcerebraledemaafterintracerebralhemorrhage.Conclusion Theamount of bleeding,NIHSS score,and hyperglycemia are the risk factors for the formation of delayed cerebral edema in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage,while high MMP-9 level on admission indicated that the risk of the formation of delayed cerebral edema is high.

Objective Toevaluatea modified Ziehl-Neelsen(Z-N) stain in the diagnosis of tuberculous meningitis. Methods Cerebrospinal fluid specimens from 35 patients were stained by using the modified Ziehl-Neelsen staining. Re-sults The positive rate was 94.29% in 35 patients with tuberculous meningitisand the intracellular acid-fast bacilli was detected in 53.40%of all specimens. One case was stained positive in 15 patients with non-tuberculous meningitis. Con-clusion The modified Ziehl-Neelsen stain not only significantly improves the detection rates of tuberculous meningitisbut alsois able to identify intracellular M.tuberculosisin cerebrospinal fluidspecimen.Thus, the modified Z-N stain can be a convenient tool for diagnosing tuberculous meningitis.

Objective To explore the effects of quality improvement in delivery room resuscitation on very/extremely low birth-weight infants (VLBWI/ELBWI). Methods A retrospective analysis was performed to analyze the clinical data of VLBWI/ELBWI who were admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) of Nanjing Maternity Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from January to December 2015 (pre-improvement group, n=176) and of those who were admitted from January to December 2016 after the implementation of quality improvement program on delivery room resuscitation (post-improvement group, n=199). Several parameters were monitored, including resuscitation modalities [continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) , peak inspiratory pressure (PIP)+positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) with T-piece resuscitator and intubation rate in delivery room], neonatal body temperature and pH on NICU admission, respiratory outcomes, morbidity from intraventricular hemorrhage, necrotizing enterocolitis, retinopathy ofprematurity and hospitalization. Chi-square (or Fisher's exact test), t or rank Sum test was used for statistical analysis. Results There was no significant difference in gestational age, birth weight, gender proportion, delivery mode and Apgar scores between the two groups (all P>0.05). After implementing the quality improvement program, there was an increased overall usage of CPAP [85.9% (171/199) vs 66.3% (112/176), χ2=19.881, P<0.01] and PIP+PEEP with T-piece resuscitator [33.8% (67/199) vs 10.8% (12/176), χ2=19.819, P<0.01], but a decreased usage of balloon catheter ventilation [6.0% (12/199) vs 39.3% (44/176), χ2=53.682, P<0.01]. No significant change in intubation rate was observed(P>0.05). The average admission temperature increased after launching the quality improvement program [M (P25-P75), 36.2 (35.8-36.5) vs 35.6 (35.4-35.7)℃ , Z= - 9.681, P<0.01]. The morbidities of pulmonary hemorrhage within one week after birth [1.5% (3/199) vs 5.1% (9/176),χ2=3.921] and grade Ⅲ / Ⅳ intraventricular hemorrhage [1.1% (2/199) vs 11.9% (21/176), χ2=33.885] decreased along with the improvement in delivery room resuscitation (both P<0.05). The duration of invasive ventilation decreased as well [3 (1-6) vs 4 (2-9) d, Z= - 2.286, P<0.05]. Conclusions Quality improvement in delivery room resuscitation measures standardizes the management of delivery room resuscitation and improves the clinical outcomes of VLBWI/ELBWI.
