AIM: The relationship between muscle force (MF) and bone mass (BM)has become one of the pivotal aspects in research of cause, prevention and treatment of primary osteoporosis. This paper is to probe into the mechanism by which estrogen influences the relationship between MF and BM.METHODS: We searched for the relative papers on the relationship between muscle force and bone mass and the effect of estrogen on relationship between muscle force and bone mass. Combining the literatures with our previous results, we discussed the effects of estrogen on relationship between muscle force and bone mass.RESULTS: Muscle force, which determines bone structure and bone mass,makes bone strength adaptable to work load. Estrogen adjustes adaptability of muscle force and bone mass, mainly by the influence on threshold of bone strain. Estrogen therapy could maintain muscle force, partially by which estrogen exerts the beneficial effects on bone.CONCLUSION: Estrogen could influence the relationship between muscle force and bone mass, and estrogen therapy could have the beneficial effect on muscle force.

Objective To study the efficacy and safety of estradiol and drospirenone tablets (Angeliq)in treatment of menopausal symptoms among postmenopausal Chinese healthy women.Methods Total 244 postmenopausal Chinese healthy women who had moderate to severe hot flushes were randomly assigned for 16 weeks in this randomized multi-center double-blind placebo-controlled study.During the trial.the follow-up visits were conducted at week 4,8,12,16 of treatment and 2 weeks after treatment respectively.Height,weight,vital signs,hot flushes,other relevant menopausal symptoms and vaginal bleeding were observed in each follow-up visit,while the clinical global impression scale Was assessed at 16 weeks as well.Results It showed that hot flushes were reduced significantly more in observation group than that in placebo group ( P<0.01 ), although both treatments were effective. The absolute values of mean severity index of total hot flushes decreased by - 0. 6± 0. 5 in observation group and - 0. 4 ± 0. 4 in placebo group from baseline respectively, which reached significant difference ( P < 0. 05 ). However, the absolute values of mean severity index of moderate to severe hot flushes decreased by - 0. 6± 0. 8 in observation group and -0. 3± 0.6 in placebo group from baseline respectively, which had no significant difference (P > 0. 05 ).After 16 weeks treatment, it also showed that estradiol and drospirenone had significant better efficacy than placebo on moderate to severe sweating, vaginal dryness and clinical global impression scale (P <0. 01 ).During the trial, blood pressure in observation group was stable. The rate of vaginal bleeding in observation group was higher than that in the placebo group, especially during the week 4 to week 8 when 48. 9% (87/178) in observation group and 10. 7% (6/56) in placebo group of patients bled. Although the cumulative amenorrhea rate of observation group was lower than that of placebo group in each cycle (28 days), it increased gradually along with duration of the treatment. The commonest adverse event in observation group was breast tenderness which accounted for 12.0% (22/183 ). The level of serum potassium was in the normal range in observation group mostly. Meanwhile, the other adverse events rate was low. Serious adverse events reported in this trial were assessed as not study drug related or as unlikely study drug related. Conclusion Estradiol and drospirenone tablets which could effectively alleviate menopausal symptoms in postmeuopausal Chinese healthy women is a novel hormone replacement therapy regimen with high safety and efficacy.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the feasibility and efficacy of laparoscopic procedure in the diagnosis and treatment of congenital intestinal atresia and stenosis in neonates and infants.
METHODSBetween September 2009 and September 2013, 55 cases with intestinal atresia and stenosis underwent laparoscope-assisted procedures in our department. There were, 32 males and 23 females, Twelve cases were diagnosed as duodenal atresia and stenosis and 43 as intestinal atresia and stenosis. The age at hospitalization was 7 minutes to 7 months(mean 9.88 d). After the diagnosis by multiport or transumbilical single-site laparoscopic exploration, cases with duodenal atresia and stenosis and part of the cases with proximal jejunum were treated by laparoscopic operations to remove the septum and restore intestinal continuity. In other cases with intestinal atresia and stenosis, laparoscopic inspection was performed to make diagnosis and then the proximal and distal ends of the atresia were exteriorized through the umbilical port site for end-to-oblique anastomosis.
RESULTSAll the 55 cases underwent this minimally invasive approach, and no case was converted to open surgery. The operative time of laparoscopic procedure for duodenal atresia and stenosis (n=12) ranged from 80 to 145 min(mean, 110 min). During the follow-up of 3-34 months, one case had recurrent postoperative vomiting induced by giant duodenal expansion above anastomotic stoma and died the second day after operation. The operative time of laparoscopic surgery for intestinal atresia and stenosis (n=43) ranged from 35 to 70 min (mean 46 min). During the follow-up of 3-36 months, 3 cases complicated with meconium peritonitis had postoperative short bowel syndrome and died. One case died of intestinal perforation at 3 month postoperatively. One case died of intestinal adhesion at 7 month postoperatively. The rest of cases had favorable outcomes.
CONCLUSIONLaparoscopic surgery for the diagnosis and treatment of intestinal atresia and stenosis has advantages of small incision, less trauma, and rapid recovery.

Objective:To determine the effects of menopausal stage, age and other associated risk factors on symptoms of anxiety and depression among women in a community in Beijing.Methods:This study was a community-based prospective cohort. Participants who had transitioned through natural menopause, completed two or more depressive and anxiety symptoms evaluations, aged 35 to 64 years, and did not use hormone therapy were selected from the Peking Union Medical College Hospital aging longitudinal cohort of women in midlife to this analysis. The primary outcome variables were depressive and anxiety symptoms, assessed by hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS). The generalized estimation equation was used in the statistical analysis.Results:Followed up from 2006 to 2014, 430 women and 2 533 HADS assessments were retained in the cohort. Depressive symptoms were more common than anxiety symptoms during all menopausal stages. The incidences of depressive and anxiety symptoms were 14.5% (19/191) and 3.1% (4/191) in the premenopausal -3 stage, respectively. The incidence increased in both menopausal transition and postmenopausal stage, with the highest incidence in the +1c stage [20.6% (155/751) and 8.8% (66/751), respectively]. However, these differences were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). Depressive symptoms were highest in the ≥60-<65 age group [20.8% (74/355)], and anxiety symptoms were highest in the ≥50-<55 age group [8.2% (62/754)]; but there were no statistical significances between different age groups and depressive and anxiety symptoms (all P>0.05). Multivariable analysis showed that high body mass index, low education status, and poor health status were independently associated with depressive symptoms (all P<0.05), and that poor health status, trouble falling asleep, and early awakening were independently associated with anxiety symptoms (all P<0.01). Conclusions:Depressive and anxiety symptoms are more common during menopausal transition and postmenopausal stage compared with reproductive stage. Depressive symptoms are more common than anxiety symptoms. To screen and assess depressive and anxiety symptoms in perimenopausal women is essential, especially for women with high risk factors.

Transglutaminase 2 (TGM2) is a ubiquitous multifunctional protein, which is related to the adhesion of different cells and tumor formation. Previous studies found that TGM2 is involved in the interaction between host cells and viruses, but the effect of TGM2 on the proliferation of influenza virus in cells has not been reported. To explore the effect of TGM2 during H1N1 subtype influenza virus infection, a stable MDCK cell line with TGM2 overexpression and a knockout cell line were constructed. The mRNA and protein expression levels of NP and NS1 as well as the virus titer were measured at 48 hours after pot-infection with H1N1 subtype influenza virus. The results showed that overexpression of TGM2 effectively inhibited the expression of NP and NS1 genes of H1N1 subtype influenza virus, while knockout of TGM2 up-regulated the expression of the NP and NS1 genes, and the expression of the NP at protein level was consistent with that at mRNA level. Virus proliferation curve showed that the titer of H1N1 subtype influenza virus decreased significantly upon TGM2 overexpression. On the contrary, the virus titer in TGM2 knockout cells reached the peak at 48 h, which further proved that TGM2 was involved in the inhibition of H1N1 subtype influenza virus proliferation in MDCK cells. By analyzing the expression of genes downstream of influenza virus response signaling pathway, we found that TGM2 may inhibit the proliferation of H1N1 subtype influenza virus by promoting the activation of JAK-STAT molecular pathway and inhibiting RIG-1 signaling pathway. The above findings are of great significance for revealing the mechanism underlying the interactions between host cells and virus and establishing a genetically engineering cell line for high-yield influenza vaccine production of influenza virus.
