OBJECTIVE:To provide the reference for verifying and improving the usage criteria and guidelines of compound oral contraceptives(COCs)in China. METHODS:The usage criteria and guidelines of COCs were introduced and compared issued by WHO,US and European Union(EU). RESULTS&CONCLUSIONS:WHO has established 4 standards and guidelines for COCs, i.e. Medical Eligibilitu Criteria for Contraceptive Use(MEC),Selected Practice Recommendations for Contraceptive Use(SPR), Decision-making Tool for Family Planning Clients and Providers,Family Planning:A Global Handbook for Providers. According to the specific circumstances of the user,MEC has been divided into 4 levels according to the situation of users,i.e. suitable for use,use cautiously,relative contraindication,absolute contraindication. SPR mainly describes the specific issues of how to use vari-ous contraception methods safely and effectively. The reading card mode for Decision-making Tool for Family Planning Clients and Providers can query specific methods and steps of contraceptive informed choice fast. Family Planning:A Global Handbook for Providers can provide practical guide for the family planning service providers in the first line. On the basis of WHO MEC and SPR,some projects are modified and added in the US MEC and SPR,including the classification of breast feeding,the risk grade of DVT/PE recurrence,etc. EU have formulated COCs criteria and guidelines earlier than WHO and US;the key points and specif-ic varieties of COCs are prompted and updated based on the latest evidence- based medicine,including a new assessment of the risk of thrombosis after using the COCs,the special safety tips for the use of Diane 35? and its generics. Concerning the optimal ev-idences of current COCs usage of WHO,US and EU,combined with domestic situation,our country may provide the clear and up-to-date usage criteria and guidelines of COCs for its users and medical staff.

Objective To observe the effects of differentiation of mature islet cells of mice on marrowmesenchymal stem cells (mMSCs). To provide transplant source for islet cell transplantation in the treatment of diabetes. Methods The culture, isolation and passage of mMSCs was performed by using patch wall, cell shape was observed by confocal microscope, and flow cytometry analysis was used to determine their biological characteristics. The type Ⅳ collagenase was injected into common bile duct to digest the pancreas, and then gradient centrifugation was used to isolate islet cells. The transwell co-culture system was used for third generation of mMSCs and isolated islet cells, then inversion microscope was used to observe the cell growth and morphological changes, immunochemistry methods was applied to detect the expression of insulin in mMSCs, and insulin release test was performed to determine the secretion of insulin. The control group consisted of cultured mMSCs alone. Results The cells from mouse bone marrow were found to be in long spindle shape with large volume after 48 hours in culture. One week later the cells grew in the form of colony with serial subcultivation. The cell surface molecules including Sca-l, CD29, CD44, CD105 were positive with high level of expression;while the cell surface molecules including CD34, CD45 were negative, all of these results confirmed that the ceils were mMSCs. After 7 days of coculture with mice islet cells, part of mMSCs cells were positively stained by insulin immunohistochemisty, the insulin secretion was (16.83±0. 15)μIU/ml.Conclusions After cocultured with islet cells, mMSCs isolated from mouse bone marrow could differentiate into islet like cells. These cells may be used in the islet cells transplantation in the treatment of diabetes, which provided a solution to the problems of donor-shortage and immunologic rejection.

Objective:To develop an HPLC method for the determination of nintedanib in rabbit plasma and study the pharmacoki-netics of nintedanib in rabbits. Methods:The separation was performed on an Agilent ZORBAX SB-C18 column. A mixture of acetoni-trile-0. 1% trifluoroacetic acid-water (35∶ 20∶ 45) was used as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1. 0 ml·min-1. The detection wavelength was set at 286 nm. Carbamazepine was used as the internal standard and nintedanib was extracted by ethyl acetate from plasma under basic condition. Totally 6 rabbits were given 20 mg·kg-1 nintedanib with intravenous administration. The blood samples were collected from the auricular vein at different time points after the administration. The concentration of nintedanib in plasma was detected by the HPLC method. The pharmacokinetics parameters were analyzed by DAS program. Results: An excellent linear rela-tionship was obtained within the range of 0. 05-10. 00 μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 8). The intra-day RSD was 5. 55%, 4. 53% and 2. 74%and inter-day RSD was 6. 15%, 5. 45% and 3. 15%, respectively for the three concentrations(0. 10, 2. 50 and 7. 50μg·ml-1), and the relative recovery was (98. 50 ± 5. 47)%, (100. 25 ± 4. 54)% and (99. 94 ± 2. 74)%, respectively. The main pharmacokinetics parameters of nintedanib were as follows: Cmaxwas (3.01 ±0.35) μg·ml-1, t1/2 was (4.38 ±1.53) h and AUC0-t was (11.67 ± 1. 71) μg·h·ml-1 . Conclusion:The method is simple, rapid and accurate, and can be used to determine the nintedanib concentra-tion in rabbit plasma and study its pharmacokinetics. Nintedanib is fitted the first-order elimination kinetics in rabbits.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect between less invasive stabilization system (LISS) plate and anatomical plate internal fixation for the treatment of tibial plateau fractures. Methods The clinical data of 58 patients with tibial plateau fractures were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into LISS plate group and anatomical plate group according to the internal fixation method with 29 cases each. The operative time, blood loss, incision length, fracture healing time, postoperative weight-bearing time, postoperative complications and therapeutic effect (according to Rasmussen knee joint function score scale) were compared between 2 groups. Results The operative time, incision length, blood loss and incidence of postoperative complications in LISS plate group were significantly lower than those in anatomical plate group:(68.5 ± 7.1) min vs. (92.3 ± 9.4) min, (5.8 ± 1.4) cm vs. (8.6 ± 2.1) cm, (208.5 ± 27.8) ml vs. (329.7 ± 25.2) ml and 17.2%(5/29) vs. 41.4%(12/29), and the excellent rate was significantly higher than that in anatomical plate group: 86.2% 25/29) vs. 62.1%(18/29), and there were statistical differences (P<0.05);there were no statistical differences in fracture healing time and postoperative weight-bearing time between 2 groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Both of LISS plate and anatomical plate internal fixation for the treatment of tibial plateau fractures have good clinical efficacy, but the LISS plate has advantages of shorter operation time, less tissue trauma, less blood loss, quicker fracture healing and less postoperative adverse reaction.

AIM: To examine the effect of pretreatment with low-concentration of 11, 12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid(EET) on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats. METHODS: After tracheotomy, myocardial ischemia/reperfusion was produced by occlusion and release of the left anterior descending artery(LAD) of the rats. Ischemic preconditioning(IP) was made by two times of ischemia (5 min)/reperfusion (5 min). The experiment was conducted in three groups: control,IP and pretreatment with 11,12-EET(6.24?10 -8 mol/L), and each group was subdivided into two subgroups:A,the rats were subjected to ischemia (10 min)/reperfusion (10 min) and arrhythmias during the whole periods were monitored; The rats in B were subjected to ischemia (60 min)/reperfusion (30 min) and arrhythmias, cardiac funtion and myocardial infarction size were documented. RESULTS: Both IP and pretreatment with 11,12-EET could protect the heart against arrhythmias, cardiac disfunction and myocardial infarction. CONCLUSION: Pretreatment with 11,12-EET had protective effect on myocardium in case of ischemia/reperfusion, which was similar to ischemic preconditioning.

Objective:To construct a retroviral vector carrying both enhanced green fluorescent protein(EGFP) and human insulin gene for transfecting the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs),and to observe the treatment effect of transfected BMSCs after transplanted into diabetes mice.Methods:Two gene segments of insulin-IRES-EGFP and IRES-EGFP were obtained by overlap extension PCR technology,and then the 2 segments were cloned into retroviral vector (pMSCV).The vectors were used to transfect BMSCs after packaged with PT67 cells.The expression of EGFP was observed by inverted fluorescence microscope and the expression of insulin gene was examined by RT-PCR in the infected BMSCs.The transfected BMSCs with 2 viruses were transplanted into diabetic mice separately.The blood glucose levels and body weights of mice were examined in 2 groups,and the results were compared with those of normal control group.Results:The recombinant retroviral vectors pMSCV-insulin-IRES-EGFP and pMSCV-IRES-EGFP were successfully constructed.The BMSCs infected by both vector stably gave out green fluorescence under microscope; the cells infected with pMSCV-insulin-IRES-EGFP also stably expressed human insulin gene.The blood glucose level of the mice transplanted with BMSCs transfected with pMSCV-insulin-IRES-EGFP was significantly lower than that transplanted with BMSCs transfected with pMSCV-IRES-EFGP (P

(0.05)). (Conclusions) PFC and serum TNF-? ,NO could be early observation indicators of acute rejection in minipig pancreas transplatation,and should have important significance in the diagnosis of acute rejection.

Objective To compare different Nrf2 expressions in glioblastoma cell lines and glioma stem cells (GSCs) from xenografts and to study the concentration of Nrf2 in nuclear. Methods GSCs were analyzed by immunofluorescence and different expressions of Nrf2 in glioblastoma cell lines and GSCs from xenografts were detected with real-time RCR and Western. Results GSCs were successfully isolated from xenografts of U251 and U87 cell lines. The percentage of tumor stem cells in total cells was 1.24%, and that was 1.63% in xenografts. Immunofluorescence indicated that Nrf2 was overexpressed in GSCs as compared with that in glioblastoma cell lines. Conclusion Nrf2 may be a potential biomarker and rational therapeutic target for GSCs.
