To evaluate the role of nitric oxide in the embryo implantation in mice, three experiments were carried out using the mice implantation model. In the experimentⅠand experimentⅡ, NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), the non-specific NOS inhibitor, was administered intraperitoneally at doses of 0.5 mg-5 mg on the day 3 of pregnancy and at dose of 3 mg on different days of pregnancy (day 1-6) . In the experiment Ⅲ, L-aragnine, a donor of NO, was co-administered with L-NAME to evaluate the effect of L-aragnine on L-NAME, and the embryo development was assessed. In all these three experiments, the endometrium was histologically examined. Results showed compared with the control groups intraperitoneal administration of a dose of L-NAME between 1 and 5 mg on the day 3 of pregnancy led to the decrease in the number of implantation sites (P<0.05), and 4 to 5 mg of L-NAME caused inhibition of implantation completely. L-NAME resulted in failure of pregnancy when administrated at 3 mg between day 3 and 5 of pregnancy. The characteristic vascular permeability changes and decidualization in the endometrium were significantly attenuated and embryo growth was retarded. The L-NAME-mediated effects were significantly reversed when L-aragnine was co-administered with L-NAME. This study demonstrated that NO promoted the implantation in mice through regulating the permeability and decidulization of endometrium and the development of embryo.

To evaluate the role of nitric oxide in local function of endometrium, the pattern of expression of endothelial and inducible nitric oxide synthases in the human endometrium at proliferative and secretory phases and decidua was studied by using immunocytochemistry. Results showed: (1) At the proliferative phase, the eNOS immunostaining was confined to vascular endothelial, whereas the iNOS was not detected in any composition of endometrium. (2) At the secretory phase, surface epithelium and grandular epithelium showed positive staining for both eNOS and iNOS. The stroma remained uniformly negative throughout the menstrual cycle. (3) In the decidua, the expression of both isoforms was increased, while moderate iNOS immunoreactivity was observed in decidualized stromal cells. It was demonstrated that the expression of eNOS and iNOS was elevated at the secretory phase and in decidua, indicating the increased production of NO at these phases. The increasing of NO might take part in implantation through dilating the vessels and relaxing the smooth muscles and in menstration through promoting apoptosis.

The condition and prognosis of ischemic cerebrovascular disease(ICVD)are closely associated w ith the w hole blood coagulation status and the reactivity of antiplatelet agents of patients. Thromboelastography ( TEG ) is a reliable means to detect the w hole blood coagulation and fibrinolytic capacity. Its overal results of the evaluation can be used in the coagulation monitoring, efficacy of antiplatelet therapy, and prognostic evaluation in patients w ith ischemic cerebrovascular disease. In recent years, the detection methods of TEG have been improved continuously. The research reports for its clinical application are gradual y increasing. This article review s the clinical application of TEG in the diagnosis, treatment, and prognostic evaluation in ischemic cerebrovascular disease.

Objective:To establish the pathological sample database and standardize pathology specimen management processes to provide a platform for the study of pathology samples. Methods: Using J2EE, JSP, and component object model technology, the system establish the pathological sample library work platform for the pathology network resources, documentation, and intelligent. Results:The system established pathology samples and workflow management system architecture for the collection, storage and analysis of pathology specimens. Conclusion:The system designed to enhance the authenticity and credibility of the sample test results, thereby improve the accuracy of the sample analysis and provides a good reference for information technology-related departments.

Objective To report the first case of ectodermal dysplasia/skin fragility syndrome in China. Methods The clinical data, transmission electron microscopic examination and immunohistochemical analysis of this patient were evaluated. Results The patient was a 3-year-old girl who presented increased skin fragility with trauma-induced, blisters and erosions, combined with short and sparse hair, finger-and toe-nail dystrophy and palmoplantar keratoderma. Transmission electron microscopy showed a loss of keratinocyte-keratinocyte adhesion, widening of intercellular spaces and a reduced number of hypoplastic desmosomes. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed a complete absence of staining for plakophilin 1. Conclusion Ectodermal dysplasia/skin fragility syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive inherited disease characterized by clinical manifestations as well as electron microscopic features and immunohistochemical evidence.

Penile vascular endothelial damage, vasomotor dysfunction, and blood flow deficiency are the major causes of erectile dysfunction (ED). Current management of ED mostly depends on selective phosphodiesterase type 5- (PDE5) inhibitors, which fail for some ED patients. For Peyronie's disease-induced ED, surgical and physical therapies are used in addition to PDE5I medication, but frequently it is difficult to achieve satisfactory results. Recent studies show that the low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy can promote angiogenesis and improve blood flow to the penis, which promises to be a novel effective therapy for ED and Peyronie's disease.

One of the major responsibilities for medical students is to save lives and to popularize emergency medical treatment knowledge for the masses of society.Based on research analysis,systemic training of cardiopulmonary resuscitation program including lectures,simulation education and social practice were performed for medical students.After practice activities,these students could proficiently apply the basic knowledge and skills of cardiopulmonary resuscitation in practical work and spread what they have learned to the public.Furthermore the program could improve students' abilities in social practice and team spirit and it is of great social significance.

To study the chemical constituents of Cirsium setosum (Willd.) MB., 70% ethanol extract of the aerial parts was subjected to column chromatography. One new phenylpropanoid glycoside, sinapyl alcohol 9-O-(E)-p-coumaroyl-4-O-beta-D-glucopyanoside (1) was isolated, along with three known compounds: lycoperodine-1 (2), apigenin-7-O-(6"-(E)-p-coumaroyl)-beta-D-galactopyranoside (3) and quercetin (4). The structures were elucidated on the basis of spectral and chemical evidence. Compound 2 was obtained from Cirsium genus for the first time, compounds 3 and 4 were obtained from this plant for the first time.

Objective To explore the related factors about acute stress responses of the military freshmen,then built a path model among self-efficacy,social support,coping style,state-trait anxiety and acute stress responses.Methods 584 students were tested by General Self-efficacy Scale (GSES),Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS),Coping Styles Questionnaire,State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and Acute Stress Response Scale ( ASP S).Results ①The military freshmen in each factor of acute stress response got a lower score,especially the mean score of the changes of cognition was higher (0.21 ±0.21 ),compared with the other factors,and the changes of pathology (0.053 ±0.114) was lower.②There were significant correlations between self-efficacy,social support,positive coping,negative coping,state anxiety,trait anxiety and acute stress responses (P ＜ 0.01 ).③ Negative coping( r=0.130),trait anxiety(r=0.005) and state anxiety(r=0.002) influenced ASR directly,meanwhile,self-efficacy( r =-1.292) influenced ASR through the state anxiety indirectly,self-efficacy ( r=-7.465 ) and social support ( r =-0.294) influenced ASR indirectly through trait anxiety.Conclusion Acute stress responses of the military freshmen were directly influenced by negative coping and state-trait anxiety,and negative coping style was the main reason.
