The treatment of mental disorders during pregnancy is challenging.Modified electroconvulsive therapy (MECT) has become one of the important and powerful treatment methods,which is safe with a rapid onset of action and fewer side effects,benefiting for patients in acute stage especially for those with suicidal ideation.This article mainly discusses the superiority of MECT in the treatment of mental disorders in pregnancy,as well as the treatment principle in women and fetus.Through pretreatment evaluation and closely monitoring of therapeutic efficacy during and after treatment,the complications of pregnant women and fetuses,such as vaginal bleeding,premature labor and fetal arrhythmia,can be effectively minimized.Taken together,MECT seems to be a safe and effective measure in treating mental disorders during pregnancy.

Objective To evaluate the proteetive effect of Valerian oil on lipid-induced nephropathy in Hypercholosterolemic rats and study its possible mechanisms.Methods SD rats were randomly divided into control group,hyperlipidemia group,low-dose[12.5mg/(kg·d)]valerian oil group,middle-dose[25mg/(kg·d)]valerian oil group,high-dose[(50me/(kg·d)]valerian 0il group and simvastatin group[5ms/(kg·d)for lavage].Dietary-induced hyperlipidemia were by given 4％cholosteml and 1％cholic acid diet for 16 weeks.Changes of serum lipid,urinary albumin,renal function and renal pathobiology index were assessed.The expression of integrin α3β1in glomeruli was detected by immunohistochemical stain,the expression of integrin ot3～l and TGF-β1 mRNA were detected by RT-PCR at the same time.Results The serum levels of total cholesterol,low density lipopmtein and seruln creatinine in Valerian group and simvastatin group were decreased more than that in hypedipidemia group.Urinary albumin excretion Was significantly reduced。in Valerian group after treatment for 8 weeks,and significantly reduced in simvaatatin group after 16 weeks.The morphological analysis revealed that the pathobiology index in Valerian group were significantly decreased than that in simvastatin group after 16 weeks.At the sanle time,the expression of integrin α3β1 mRNA and protein in Valerian group were significantly increased than that in hyperlipidemia group and simvastatin group,and the expression of TGF-β1mRNA were markedly decreased in Valerian group.The treatment effect in Valerian group Wag better than that insimvaatatin group.Conclusion Valerian oil has the protective effects on lipid-induced nephropathy by decreasing serum lipid,increasing the expression of integrin α3β1 and inhibiting the expression of TGF-β1.The protective effects of Valerian oil ale better than simvastatin.

Objective To explore the expression and significance of nestin in renal tubular epithelial cells in hypercholesterolemic rats. Methods Dietary-induced hyperlipidemia were induced in female SD rats by given 4% cholesterol and 1% cholic acid diet for 16 weeks. Changes of serum lipid, urinary albumin, serum creatinine and renal interstitial pathological changes were assessed. The expression of nestin and a-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) were detected by immunohistochemical stain. Results The serum levels of total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein, urinary albumin and serum creatinine were significantly increased in hyperlipidemia group, accompanied with renal interstitial injury and fibrosis. As time extended, the expression of nestin and a-SMA in renal tubular epithelial cells were increased significantly. There was positive correlation among the expression of nestin and total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein, urinary albumin and serum creatinine( r =0.963,0.830,0.944,0.706, P <0.01). Nestin also had a positive correlation with tubular-interstitial index ( r = 0. 974, P < 0. 01) and α-SMA ( r = 0. 804, P < 0. 01). Conclusion The increased expression of nestin may be associated with renal tubular-interstitial fibrosis and tubular epithelial myofibroblast transdifferentiation in hypercholesterolemic rats.

Objective To study the dynamic change of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hCRP),interleukin-1(IL-1?)interleukin-6(IL-6)in acute traumatic brain injury,and the correlation between the dynamic change and the scale of brain injury and the prognosis of the patients.Methods 192 cases patients were divided into different groups according to the Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS)and the Glasgow outcome Scale(GOS)three months later discharged from hospital respectively.The concentration of serum CRP,IL-1?,IL-6 were detected with immunoturbidimetry and ABC-ELISA 24 with in hours after traumatic brain injury and the concentration of serum after iniwn at ond day,three days and seven days was detected as well.Results Serum hCRP levels were remarkably elevated and reached peak value within 24 hours,and then gradually decreased.There were a negative correlation between hCRP,IL-1?,IL-6 and the patient's GCS groups(r=-0.162,P

Total body fat of 12 male adults were measured by ordinary and modified water displacement method repeatedly. The mean value was 9.37 kg calculated by ordinary method.It was significantly lower than that of 10.07 kg calculated by modified method (p

Objective To observe the effect of low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPU) in repair of the articular cartilage injury in rabbits. Methods Osteochondral defects in the cartilage surfaces of femoral intercondylar fossae were made in 33 healthy adult New Zealand White rabbits, of which the knee lesions of the left hind legs were treated with LIPU (LIPU group) while that of the right ones used as control group. All animals in two groups were sacrificed respectively at the 2nd, 4th and 8th weeks postoperatively for gross appearance observation and histological examination. Results The ultrasound-treated tissues became more mature with in advance repair or regeneration. The repaired tissues in the LIPU group were near to normal hyaline cartilage tissues at the 8th week postoperatively, while the repaired tissues in the control group were weak, near to fibrocartilaginous tissues. Conclusion LIPU can promote repair of articular cartilage injury in rabbits.

Objective: To quantitatively study the incidental extra-cardiac ifndings (ECFs) by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) in order to better recognize those lesions in clinical practice.
Methods: A total of 1169 suspected CAD patients received CCTA in our hospital from 2011-06 to 2013-03 and 1030 patients were enrolled in this study. There were 589 in-patients, 441 out-patients and 549 patients≥60 years of age,481 patients < 60 years of age. 3 physicians evaluated the incidental ECFs in the full ifeld of view (FOV) in different window level and window width for lung, mediastinum, thorax and upper abdominal areas. Clinical relevance of ECFs were classiifed by corresponding scores. Score 1, the patients with severe lesion need immediate treatment, score 2, the lesion with clinical and prognostic signiifcance and score 3, the ifnding without clinical signiifcance.
Results: There were 197/1030 (19.1%) patients having 224 ECFs and 27 (2.6%) patients having 2 ECFs; 90/1030 (8.7%) patients having 106 signiifcant lesions including 3 (0.3%) of lung cancer and 8 (0.8%) of pulmonary embolism; 107 patients with 118 lesions without signiifcance. ECFs were found in 114/589 (19.4%) in-patients and in 83/441 (18.8%) out-patients, P>0.05; 76/481 (15.8%) of patients < 60 years of age and 121/549 (22.0%) of patients≥60 years,P<0.05.
Conclusion: Unexpected ECFs detection rate was 19.1% in patients undergoing CCTA without further radiation exposure by reconstruction with the full FOV setting, and 8.7% of ECFs had clinical signiifcance. Radiologists should routinely analyze the extra-cardiac organs in CCTA.

Objective To discuss the effects of relying on social groups,membership and health education on the quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods 110 patients with type 2 diabetes as social group members were randomly selected as the intervention group,meanwhile,113 cases of nonsocial group members were set as the control group.Quality of Life Scale(SF-36) was adopted to assess the survival quality.All patients were given follow-up after six months to score again.Results There was no significant difference in each dimension score between the two groups before the intervention.After six months follow-up,the control group in each dimension score showed no obvious difference compared with half a year ago.While in the intervention group,the difference was statistically significant in dimension of general health,vitality,emotional functions,mental health and social function compared with half a year ago.Conclusions The quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes can be improved by the establishment of social organizations and health education.

The low aqueous solubility is the main reason that for most pharmacological active ingredients are challengeable to develop into oral solid formulation. Polymeric amorphous solid dispersion(PASD) can greatly improve the apparent solubility and dissolution rate of poorly soluble drugs, has become a common technology to improve the oral bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. However, due to the amorphous form of the drug at a high surface free energy in PASD, crystallization would occur during storage and dissolution, thereby losing its formulation advantages. The review attempts to provide a structural development approach of PASD products from the aspects of formulation and technology, in order to guide the development of stable and commercially viable PASD formulations. And the trend analysis of marketed products and patents of PASD will be discussed to understand the prospects of PASD's application in improving the bioavailability of poorly soluble oral solid formulations.
