Objective To investigate the effects of early estrogen replacement therapy(ERT) with different doses on aortic endothelial senescence and its possible mechanism. Methods Twenty- eight healthy New Zealand white female rabbits were randomized into four groups: group A(n=7), in sham operation;group B(n=7), ovariectomized;group C(n=7), ovariectomized and in low-dose ERT(estradiol benzoate 200 μg,im, QOD) ;and group D(n=7), ovariectomized and in high-dose ERT (estradiol benzoate 1000 μg,im,QOD). All rabbits were fed with high fat diet and the rabbits in group C and group D were given ERT from the 7th day after the operation. Blood samples taken via ear central artery before the operation and after the high fat diet for 4 and 12 weeks were used to determine the concentrations of serum estradiol(E2), total cholesterol(TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), trigtyceride (TG) and asymmetric dimethylarginine(ADMA). After 12 weeks, the aorta was separated for histopathologic analysis and the areas of senescent endothelium and atherosclerotic plaque were calculated.Results (1)After ovariectomized, the concentration of serum estradiol(E2) was significantly lower in group B than in other groups (all P<0.05). Twelve weeks later, the level of E2in was higher group D than in group A and C(both P<0. 05), but there was no significant difference between group C and group A (P< 0. 05). (2)After the high-fat diet for 4 and 12 weeks, there was a notable increase of TC, LDL-C, TG and HDL-C levels in rabbits of each group(all P<0. 01). After 12 weeks, the levels of TC and LDL- C were remarkably higher in group B than in other groups(all P<0. 01), however, the levels of TG and HDL-C were lower in group B than in other groups(all P<0. 01). The concentrations of TC and LDL-C in group C and group D were lower than those in group A (all P<0.01), but the differences of the levels of TG and HDL-C in group C and group D were not significant in comparison with group A (all P>0. 05). There were no significant differences in the lipid levels between group C and D (all P> 0. 05). (3)After 12-week high fat diet, there were a striking increases of serum ADMA level in all four groups (all P>0. 05). The level of ADMA was higher in group B than in other groups (P< 0. 05) andlower in group C and D than that in group A (both P<0. 05). There was no significant difference between group C and D (P<0. 05). (4)12 weeks later, the areas of senescent endothelium and atherosclerotic plaque in group B were significantly larger than those in other groups (all P< 0. 01), and the areas were smaller in group C and D than those in group A (all P<0. 01), there was no significant difference between group C and group D(both P>0.05). (5)Linear correlation analysis showed that there was an obvious positive correlation between the areas of senescent endothelium and atherosclerotic plaque(r=0. 962, P<0. 01), and both of them were positively correlated with the levels of serum AMDA (r=0. 812,0. 824,0. 755,0. 797,0. 749,0. 727), TC (r=0. 812,0. 824) and LDL-C(r=0. 755,0. 797) (all P<0. 01) and negatively correlated with the concentration of serum E2 (r=-0. 762,-0. 743, both P<0. 01).Conclusions Early ERT can improve serum lipid metabolism, reduce ADMA level, inhibit vascular endothelial senescence and attenuate atherogenesis. The delaying effect of estrogen on endothelial senescence may be due to its improving lipid metabolism and lowering ADMA level.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the efficacy and safety of prednisone combined with human immunoglobulin(pH4)for intra-venous injection in the treatment of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. METHODS:85 patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura were divided into control group(42 cases)and observation group(43 cases). Control group received 1.6 mg/(kg·d)Predni-sone tablet,orally,for continuous 4 weeks;observation group received 400 mg/(kg·d)human immunoglobulin(pH4)for intravenous injection,intravenous injection,for continuous 5 d,then 1.6 mg/(kg·d)Prednisone tablet,orally,for continuous 4 weeks. All pa-tients were given Adrenal color hydrazone tablet,Vitamin C tablet and other conventional treatment. Clinical efficacy,platelet number, T lymphocyte subsets(CD3+,CD3+CD4+,CD3+CD8+,CD19+),TNF-α,IL-6 before and after treatment,time of platelet number reached normal and reached peak value,peak value of platelet number and the incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were ob-served. RESULTS:The total effective rate and peak value of platelet number in observation group were significantly higher than control group,time of platelet number reached normal and reached peak value were significantly shorter than control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). Before treatment,there were no significant differences in platelet number,T lymphocyte sub-sets,IL-6 and TNF-αlevel in 2 groups(P>0.05);after treatment,platelet number,CD3+and CD3+CD4+in 2 groups were significant-ly higher than before,and observation group was higher than control group,IL-6,TNF-αlevel,CD3+CD8+and CD19+were signifi-cantly lower than before,and observation group was lower than control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). And there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Prednisone com-bined with human immunoglobulin(pH4) for intravenous injection shows better efficacy than prednisone alone in the treatment of idio-pathic thrombocytopenic purpura,it can increase platelet number,adjust immune function,and do not increase the incidence of ad-verse reactions.

Objective:To explore the teaching evaluation of online open course of hematology based on small private online course (SPOC) platform by means of quantitative method.Methods:The fourth-year undergraduates of clinical medicine major were selected to receive online course learning of hematology, including video viewing, rich text browsing, in-class quizzes, and seminars. The teaching contents covered the basis of hematological diseases, anemic diseases, hematological tumors, bleeding and coagulation disorders. Teaching evaluation was conducted through teaching behavior assessment, unit test, course examination and SPOC scoring. Linear regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the duration of the teaching video and student learning behavior. The correlation between video learning quantity and viewing time and course test scores and SPOC scores was analyzed. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare the differences in curriculum learning behavior (participation rate). T-test was used to compare the differences between the two results of two unit tests and to calculate the alternative-form reliability. Chi-square test was used to compare the differences in scores of different sub-specialty questions in hematology, and the differences of participation rate of different examination points of hematological tumors. Results:The teaching video viewing rate was significantly higher than the participation rate of rich text browsing and in-class quizzes ( P < 0.001; P < 0.001). There was no obvious correlation between video duration and video viewing, rich text browsing, in-class quizzes ( R = 0.168, F = 0.81, P = 0.376; R = 0.057, F = 0.07, P=0.802; R=0.124, F=0.37, P=0.546). There was a significant positive correlation between the participation rate of video viewing and rich text browsing and in-class quizzes ( R =0.890, F=76.41, P<0.001; R=0.934, F=163.67, P < 0.001). The participation rate of anemic disease unit test was significantly higher than that of hematological tumors ( χ2 = 49.08, P<0.001), bleeding and coagulation disorders ( χ2= 25.97, P< 0.001), and the second results were significantly improved ( t=-2.09, P=0.040), and the alternative-form reliability was 0.750. There was no significant difference in the participation rate of different sub-specialty courses ( χ2=5.20, P=0.074); the number of video watching was significantly positively correlated with SPOC scores ( R=0.523, F=196.22, P<0.001); the participation rate of molecular genetics and molecular biology tests of blood tumor was significantly lower than that of general clinical information questions ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:Teaching videos are the foundation of online courses. Increasing the number of video viewing and improving video viewing rate can effectively mobilize the enthusiasm of extensive learning, such as rich text browsing and in-class quizzes, and improve learning participation. It is conducive to the improvement of students' academic performance. Simple behavior factors such as video viewing time are not recommended as performance evaluation indicators. Unit test takes two times to get the highest score, which is conducive to improving professional learning level through learning behavior, without affecting the reliability of the performance evaluation. The online open course based on the SPOC platform is conducive to the balanced development of the course teaching of Hematology.
