ObjectiveTo study the mechanism of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on treatment of the late-onset fetal growth restriction (FGR). MethodsSixty-one pregnant women, who were first diagnosed as FGR after 32 weeks, were voluntarily devided into group-A (Routine management, n=28) an d group-B (HBO combined with routine management, n=33). Thirty cases of normal pregnant women were served as control group, called group-C (n=30).Results(1)Before treatment, the values of umbilical artery systolic/diastolic Ratio (S/D), pulse index (PI), resistant index (RI) and the blood viscosity at the low shear rate (LBV) of both group-A and group-B were significantly higher than those of group-C, P

Objective We sought to determine the incidence,clinical features,and risk factors for retroperitoneal hematoma(RPH)after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods A retrospective analysis yielded 21 cases of RPH out of 3,729 consecutive patients undergoing PCI between January 2000 and September 2005 in Anzhen hospital.Cases were compared with a randomly selected sample of 30 control subjects without RPH.Predictors were studied using univariate and multivariate analysis.Results The incidence of RPH was 0.6%.Anemia(100%)was a most universal feature.Features of RPH included hypotension(95%),diaphoresis(57%),groin pain(48%),abdominal pain(38%)and back pain(38%).The following variables were found to be independent predictors of RPH:female gender(odds ratio OR=5.23,P

Objective To evaluate the influence of preoperative quitting time on coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) patients with postoperative hypoxemia incidence.Methods 151 patients with coronary bypass surgery and preoperative history of smoking who preparation of CABG in hospital were recruited from September 2011 to September 2013.According to the preoperative smoking cessation time patients were divided into five groups:0 days,1-30 days,31-60 days,61-90 days,more than 90 days.Single factor regression and Logistic analysis were used to analyse the influence of preoperative quitting time on CABG patients with postoperative hypoxemia incidence.Results Age,weight,smoking habit,quitting time,hypertension,diabetes mellitus were risk factors of hypoxemia after coronary artery bypass grafting.Logistic regression analysis showed that age,body weight,smoking habit,smoking time were independent risk factors of hypoxemia after coronary artery bypass grafting.The incidences of hypoxemia of the five groups 0 days,1-30 days,31-60 days,61-90 days and more than 90 days were 55.56％ (15/27),59.26％ (16/27),27.58％ (8/29),22.73％ (5/22),15.63％ (5/32).The incidence of hypoxemia had significant difference (x2=19.212,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Age,weight,smoking habit,quitting time were independent risk factors of hypoxemia after CABG.With the quitting time increase,hypoxemia after CABG overall downward trend.Difference quitting time before the operation,the hypoxemia occurred difference rate influence,On the preoperative smoking CABG patients were smoking cessation intervention timely helps to reduce the occurrence of postoperative hypoxemia.

OBJECTIVE:To prepare transferrin(TF)modified tetrandrine(TET)and vincristine(VCR)active targeting lipo-somes,and to optimize its formulation. METHODS:TF modified TET and VCR liposomes were prepared by ammonium sulfate gradient method. Using comprehensive score of encapsulation efficiency of TET and VCR as index,central composite design-re-sponse surface method was used to optimize and validate mole ratio of EPC/Chol,mole ratio of EPC/PEG2000-DSPE and TF mass fraction. RESULTS:The optimal formulation was that the mole ratios of EPC/Chol and EPC/PEG2000-DSPE were 1.5:1 and 20:1, TF mass fraction was 0.10%. The encapsulation efficiency of TET and VCR were 97.80% and 93.00%,respectively. The compre-hensive score was 94.44(n=3)which was close to the predicted value of 93.81. CONCLUSIONS:The optimal formulation is sta-ble and can be used for the preparation of TF modified TET and VCR liposomes.

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic performance of conventional ultrasound, compression elastography (CE) and acoustic radiation force impulse imaging (ARFI) in diff erential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors. Methods: A total of 98 patients with liver lesions were included in the study. The images of conventional ultrasound, CE and the values of virtual touch tissue quantiifcation (VTQ) of breast lesions were obtained. hTe diagnostic performance of conventional ultrasound, CE and ARFI were assessed by using pathology as the gold standard, and then evaluate the diagnosis effciency of these three approaches in differential diagnosing benign and malignant breast tumors. Results: The specificity, sensitivity and accuracy in the diagnosis of malignant breast tumors for conventional ultrasound were 80.0%, 81.1% and 81.7%, respectively, whereas for CE elastic score were 85.7%, 86.7% and 86.3%, respectively. With a cutoff value of 3.71 for the SR, the sensitivity, speciifcity, accuracy in diagnosis of malignant breast tumors were 97.1%, 83.3% and 88.4%, respectively. With a cutoff value of 3.78 m/s for VTQ, the sensitivity, speciifcity, accuracy in diagnosis of malignant breast tumors were 94.3%, 91.7% and 92.6%, respectively. The difference in diagnosis efficiency among ARFI, CE and conventional ultrasound in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors was signiifcant (P<0.05). Conclusion: Conventional ultrasound, CE and ARFI are all useful for the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors. But the diagnosis effciency of ARFI is superior to CE and conventional ultrasound. The three approaches can help each other in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors.

A protocol for the isolation, purification and culture of motor neurons from newborn rat spinal cord was described and the effect of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) on the growth of neurite of motor neurons was investigated in vitro. Spinal motor neurons (SMNs) were dissociated from ventral spinal cord of postnatal day 1 rats. The culture system for SMNs was established by density gradient centrifugation, differential adhesion, and use of serum-free defined media and addition of exogenous GDNF. After 72-h culture, the cells displayed the characteristic morphology of motor neurons, exhibited extensive neuritic processes and were positive for choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) expression. The neurite length of SMNs in GDNF groups was significantly longer than that in control group (P<0.05). This protocol can be adapted for various postnatal motor neurons studies.

This study examined the effect of nicotine on the expression of mutant p53 (mt-p53) in bladder cancer rats. The rat models of bladder cancer were established by infusing N-methyl-nitroso-urea (MNU, 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks for 8 weeks) into the bladder. Pathological examination on the bladder was conducted to confirm the establishment of the model. All the bladder cancer rats were randomly divided into an MNU group and 3 nicotine groups. In the nicotine groups, the rats were intragastrically administered nicotine at different concentrations (25, 15, 5 mg/kg respectively) 3 times per week for 8 weeks. The mt-p53 expression was detected by the immunohistochemical method. The results showed that rat bladder cancer models developed histopathological changes of bladder transitional cell carcinoma. The positive rate of mt-p53 expression in the 3 nicotine groups (25, 15, 5 mg/kg) was 75.00%, 58.33% and 41.67% by the 14th week, respectively, significantly higher than that in the MNU group (33.33%) (all P<0.05). The mt-p53 expression rate was positively correlated with the medication dose and time (P<0.05). It is concluded that nicotine may play an important role in the development of bladder cancer partially by increasing the expression of mt-p53.
