Objective To evaluate the influence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on maternal and perinatal outcomes in twin pregnancies. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical features of both twin and singleton pregnancies, which delivered in Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2013. The twin pregnancies were divided into two groups:those with (GDM-T, n=51) and without GDM (non-GDM-T, n=130), which were matched by maternal age and delivery time (within one month) in a ratio of 1∶2 among singleton pregnancies with (GDM-S, n=102) and without GDM (non-GDM-S, n=102), respectively. The differences of adverse maternal and perinatal outcomes among these four groups were examined. The overall assessment of pregnancy outcomes was completed using Delphi method. Statistical analysis was performed with one-way analysis of variance, t test, Kruskal-Wallis test, rank test, Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test. Results (1) When compared to GDM-S and non-GDM-S group respectively, less women conceived with the help of assisted reproductive technology, higher proportion of women underwent and gestational age at delivery tend to be earlier in GDM-T and non-GDM-T group (all P<0.01). In oral glucose tolerance test,the fasting blood glucose level of GDM-T group was higher than the other three groups (F=21.716, P<0.01), the glucose levels at 1 and 2 h were higher than non-GDM-T and non-GDM-s respectively (both P<0.01), but no significant difference was found when compared with GDM-S group (P>0.01). Similarly, no significant difference was found in prenatal glycosylated hemoglobin value between GDM-T and GDM-S group (P>0.01). (2) There was no significant difference in the incidences of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, anemia, premature rupture of membranes, oligohydramnios, placental abruption, postpartum hemorrhage, asphyxia neonatorum, small for gestational age, hypoglycemia of newborn, hyperbilirubinemia of newborn and perinatal death between GDM-T group and the other three groups(all P>0.01). Higher incidences of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and postpartum hemorrhage were shown in the GDM-T group than in the GDM-S and non-GDM-S groups, respectively (both P<0.01). The incidences of preterm birth in GDM-T and non-GDM-T group were both higher than that in GDM-S and non-GDM-S, respectively [54.9%(66/102), 53.8%(140/260), 5.0%(10/102) and 3.0%(6/102), all P<0.01], while no significant difference was found between GDM-T and non-GDM-T group (P>0.01). (3) The overall assessment of pregnancy outcomes did not show any difference between GDM-T group and the other three groups (χ2=6.707, P>0.01). However, the score for fetal outcomes in the GDM-T group was higher than in the GDM-S and non-GDM-S group, but lower than in non-GDM-T group [M(Q)=1.0(2.3), 0.0(3.0), 0.0(0.0), 1.0(2.8) score, χ2=122.818, P<0.01]. Conclusions GDM does not increase the risk of adverse pregnant outcomes in twin pregnancies.

Objective To investigate the perioperative characteristics and changing trends of gastric electrical activity of thoracic (tube) stomach in patients with esophageal cancer.Methods The clinical data of 30 patients with esophageal cancer who were admitted to the Sichuan Cancer Hospital between March 2013 and November 2013 were prospectively analyzed.All the eligible patients underwent esophageal cancer resection by Ivor-Lewis according to the inclusion criteria.The electrogastrograms of patients were recorded at preoperative day 1 and at postoperative day 3,7, 11 and 30.The electrogastrograms of patients at preoperative day 1 were used as the control.The parameters of electrogastrogram were analyzed including main frequency, coefficient of dominant frequency instablility, main power, postprandial/preprandial power ratio, percentage of normal gastric slow wave,percentage of slow gastric slow wave and percentage of tachycardia gastric slow wave.Measurement data with normal distritution were presented as x ± s, and measurement data with skew distritution were presented as M (Qn).The postoperative time and pre-and post-prandial electrogastrograms were compared by the repeated measures two-way ANOVA.The comparison between groups were evaluated with the LSD test and analysis of variance.Results Thirty patients were screened for eligibility with a mean age of 62 years (range, 49-75 years), including 26 males and 4 females.The pre-and post-prandial main frequencies were changed from 2.83 ± 0.13 and 3.01 ± 0.17 before operation to 2.66 ± 0.10 and 2.82 ± 0.10 at postoperative day 30 with coherent changing trend.The main frequencies at postoperative each time points were significantly lower than those before operation while postprandial above indicators were higher than preprandial those, showing a significant increasing trend with the passage of postoperative time (F =285.62, P ＜ 0.05).There was no interaction between the time and meal (F =0.22, P ＞ 0.05).The pre-and post-prandial coefficients of dominant frequency instablility were changed from 0.133 ±0.031 and 0.045 ±0.019 before operation to 0.150 ±0.043 and 0.115 ±0.010 at postoperative day 30 with coherent changing trend, and coefficients of dominant frequency instablility at postoperative each time points were significantly higher than those before operation while postprandial above indicators were lower than preprandial those, showing a significant reducing trend with the passage of postoperative time (F =16.51, P ＜ 0.05).The pre-and post-prandial main powers were changed from (85 ± 15) μV and (149 ± 23) μV before operation to (74 ± 9) μμV and (98 ± 10) μV at postoperative day 30, and main powers at postoperative each time points were significantly lower than those before operation, showing a significant increasing trend with the passage of postoperative time (F =48.45, P ＜ 0.05).There was interaction between the time and meal (F =7.39, P ＜ 0.05).The postprandial/preprandial power ratio was changed from 3.00 ± 0.35 before operation to 2.52 ± 0.25 at postoperative day 30, and postprandial/preprandial power ratios at postoperative each time points were significantly lower than those before operation, showing a significant increasing trend with the passage of postoperative time (F =26.66, P ＜ 0.05).The pre-and post-prandial percentages of normal gastric slow wave were changed from 81％ ± 6％ and 94％ ± 5％ before operation to 57％ ± 5％ and 70％ ± 5％ at postoperative day 30 with coherent changing trend, and percentages of normal gastric slow wave at postoperative each time points were significantly lower than those before operation while postprandial above indicators was lower than preprandial those, showing a significant increasing trend with the passage of postoperative time (F =49.36,P ＜0.05).There was no interaction between the time and meal (F =0.24, P ＞ 0.05).The pre-and postprandial percentages of slow gastric slow wave were changed from 17％ ± 7％ and 4％ ± 4％ before operation to 32％±4％ and 21％±4％ at postoperative day 30 with coherent changing trend, and percentages of slow gastric slow wave at postoperative each time points were significantly higher than those before operation while preprandial above indicators were higher than postprandial those, showing a significant reducing trend with the passage of postoperative time (F =46.54, P ＜ 0.05).There was interaction between the time and meal (F =18.12, P ＜ 0.05).The pre-and post-prandial tachycardia gastric slow wave percentages were changed from 1.55％ (1.04％,2.21％) and 1.95％ (1.74％, 4.22％) before operation to 8.97％ (5.76％, 12.02％) and 12.41％ (8.04％,16.85％) at postoperative day 30 without completely coherent changing trend, and percentages of tachycardia gastric slow wave at postoperative each time points were significantly higher than those before operation while postprandial above indicators were higher than preprandial those, showing a significant difference between before operation and postoperative day 3 (Z =11.47, 13.28, P ＜ 0.05) and no significant difference among the postoperative day 7, 11, 30 (Z =1.88, 0.31, 0.03, P ＞ 0.05).There was no interaction between the time and meal (F=0.85, P＜0.05).Conclusions After the esophagectomy, gastric electrical activity of thoracic (tube) stomach is also retained before and after the meal.There are significant differences among the main frequency, main power, coefficients of dominant frequency instablility, postprandial/preprandial power ratio,percentage of normal gastric slow wave, percentage of slow gastric slow wave, percentage of tachycardia gastric slow wave of thoracis (tube) stomach, they have changed dynamically in the perioperative period.

The type of basic media and the contents of plant growth substances were investigated by orthogonal design experiment,and also the effects of different culture conditions on the growth of suspension cells and the accumulation of total flavonoids in Eucommia ulmoides were studied.The results showed that B5 medium supplemented with 0.5mg/L NAA,0.6mg/L 6-BA and 30g/L sucrose,at initial pH 5.0～5.5,20g(FW)/L inoculation quantity and 110 r/min of rotation speed was a preferable culture conditions for E.ulmoides suspension cells growth and flavonoids synthesis.The results of metabolic kinetics analysis for E.ulmoides cell suspension culture showed that the logistic and Luedeking-Piret equations can be used for describing the kinetics of cell growth,sucrose consumption and flavonoids production during the process.The maximum specific growth rate(?m),the actual growth yield based on sucrose(YG) and maintenance coefficient(m) were 0.417/d,0.619g/g and 0.0206g/(g?d-1) respectively.All these outcomes could give a basis for establishing the suspension cell culture of E.ulmoides and production of the natural active components in large-scale.

It is a trend that innovate the traditional bilingual education model and select a new teaching model.Code-switching is a lingual phenomenon when a passages or articles are expressed with two or more language.To guarantee effect of bilingual education and improve education quality,penetration bilingual education was applied during microbiology teaching.Professional English vocabulary,words,passages or articles were introduced to students timely and by measure by the way of language code-switching.The results showed that bilingual teaching mode with language code-switching inspire study emotion and self-confidence of English expression from students.

Due to its effect of systems regulation and promotion on body, Ginseng is always referred to be long-term used as a dietary supplement. But it was still unclear about its target of the tonic effects and also the side-effects long-term use may bring. Urine metabolomic method is suitable for long-term studies of pharmaco-dynamics, pharmacology and toxicology of traditional Chinese medicine because of its characteristics of non-invasive and monitoring the whole-body metabolism. This study was designed to detect the dynamic variation of rat urine metabolome along with a long-term administration of total ginsenosides using GC-TOF based metabolomic technology. Our result showed that either short-term or chronic administration of ginsenosides did not impact the rat urine metabolome significantly (as the PCA subgroup was not successful). By comparison, the short-term (1-3 w) dose of ginsenosides had the biggest metabolic influence including TCA cycle, catecholamines and neurotransmitter amino acids. Medium-term (6-10 w) dose had a gradually lower effect and long-term (27 w) dose almost had no effect. Our study indicates that both short and long-term administration of ginsenosides showed almost no obvious side-effect on the experimental animals.

To develop a sensitive and rapid liquid chromatographic-tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) method for simultaneous quantitation of metformin and glipizide in human plasma, metformin, glipizide and internal standard diphenhydramine were separated from plasma by protein precipitation with acetonitrile (containing 0.3% formic acid), then chromatographed by using a Zorbax Extend C18 column. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-water-formic acid (70:30: 0.3, v/v/v), at a flow rate of 0.50 mL x min(-1). A tandem mass spectrometer equipped with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization source was used as detector and operated in the positive ion mode. Selected reaction monitoring (SRM) using the precursor/production combinations of m/z 130-->m/z 60, m/z 446-->m/z 321 and m/z 256-->m/z 167 were used to quantify metformin, glipizide and diphenhydramine, respectively. The linear concentration ranges of the calibration curves for metformin and glipizide were 2.00 - 2000 ng x mL(-1) and 1.00 - 1000 ng x mL(-1), respectively. The lower limits of quantitation of metformin and glipizide were 2.00 ng x mL(-1) and 1.00 ng x mL(-1), respectively. The method proved to be sensitive, simple and rapid, and suitable for clinical investigation of compound preparation containing metformin and glipizide.
