Objective To investigate the effects of Additive Foshousan(AFSS) on the serum levels of estradiol and progesterone in rats with primary dysmenorrhea. Methods SD rats were divided into six groups, each 10. Group 1 was normal control , groups 2,3 and 4 were treated with low, middle and high dose of AFSS(0.75, 1.5 and 3.0 g/kg) respectively, group 5 as positive controls was treated with Yuanhuzhitong tablets (1 mg/kg)and group 6 served as model control. Except the normal control group, all rats were injected diethylstilbestrol and oxytocin to establish primary dysmenorrhea model. The levels of estradiol(E2)and progesterone(P) in rats serum was determined by ELISA method and the ratio of E2/P was calculated. Results In middle and high dose of AFSS groups, the level of E2(48.27±6.42)pg/L,(47.51±7.03)pg/L respectively were lower than that in model group(54.47±9.12)pg/L and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). In low dose of AFSS group, the level of E2 was(50.83±6.26)pg/L and the difference was no statistically significant compared with model group. In all doses of AFSS groups,The content of P(687.41±21.14)ng/L, (720.47±41.03)ng/L, (719.78±32.01)ng/L respectively were higher than that in the model control group (667.32±46.51)ng/L and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05 or<0.01). In middle and high dose of AFSS groups, the content of P were higher than that of Yuanhu-Zhitong tablets group(699.31±36.31)and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). Conclusion To reduce the content of E2, increase of P the content and decrease ratio of E2/P is one of the mechanism for AFSS to treat primary dysmenorrhea.

Objective To analyze the relationship between pain sensation, emotion and recognition in three dimensions. Methods By using questionnaires which contained general information questionnaire, Cancer Pain Questionnaire, Self-reporting Inventory (SCL-90), Pain Beliefs and Perceptions Inventory (PBPI) to investigate pain sensation, emotion and recognition of 46 patients with cancer pain. Results There were 13(28.3%) cases sufferd from mild pain,17 (37.0%) cases were moderate pain, 16 (34.8% )cases were severe pain.As to the result of SCL- 90,patients showed obvious symptom in somatization, depression, anxiety and hostility.They holded deep belief of that pain was very mysterious. There was a significant correlation between pain severity and depression(rs=0.377) , anxiety(rs=0.388) on the condition that confidence level was 0.01;there was also a significant correlation between pain degree and interpersonal sensitivity(rs=0.308), hostility(rs=0.320) on the condition that confidence level was 0.05. As to pain beliefs, pain degree had a significant correlation with it in the dimension of pain as mystery (rs=0.529) and pain was persistent(rs=0.680) on the condition that confidence level was 0.01. Conclusions The survey shows a positive correlation between pain severity,emotion of pain(such as anxiety,depression, hostility and interpersonal sensitivity)and beliefs about pain as mystery or permanent.

Objective To compare the clinical outcomes of two D3 embryo and single blastocyst transfer in patients retrieving different oocytes, so as to provide data support for selecting a clinical transfer strategy. Methods We made a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI)between January and December 2014 in the Reproductive Medicine Center,the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University.The patients were divided into three groups according to the number of oocytes received:Group A (5-9 oocytes),Group B (10 - 14 oocytes)and Group C (≥ 1 5 oocytes).Patients in each group all received four different transfer methods as follows:transfer of two fresh D3 embryos (a ),transfer of one fresh blastocyst (b ),transfer of two D3 frozen embryos (c ),and transfer of one frozen blastocyst (d ).We compared the 2PN fertilization rate of oocytes,rate of available embryos and rate of good embryos among the three groups.We also compared the embryo implantation rate,biochemical pregnancy rate,clinical pregnancy rate, multiplets rate and abortion rate among the four transfer methods in each group.Results ① There were 667, 573,and 479 transfer cycles in Group A,Group B and Group C,respectively.The 2PN fertilization rate of IVF and available embryos rate was significantly higher in Group A than in Group B and Group C (P =0.003/P <0.001).② There was no significant difference in biochemical pregnancy rate,clinical pregnancy rate or abortion rate with the four transfer methods in Group A (P >0.05),but the implantation rate of c was significantly lower than that of a and d (P =0.027/0.020),d had a higher implantation rate than a and c in Group B (P =0.005/0.001).In Group C,the biochemical pregnancy rate and clinical pregnancy rate of d were significantly higher than those of a (P =0.048/0.027)and c (P =0.003/0.001).Patients in Group C also had a higher implantation rate than D3 embryos (P <0.05).③ The multiple pregnancy rate of single blastocyst transfer decreased compared with D3 embryos transfer in the three groups (P <0.05).Conclusion Single blastocyst transfer has both higher implantation rate and lower multiple pregnancy rate in high response patients (1 5 or more oocytes received).For patients who received 5-9 and 10-14 oocytes,D3 embryos have a similar clinical pregnancy rate with that of single blastocyst but a higher multiple pregnancy rate.Single vitrified-warmed blastocyst transfer has a higher clinical pregnancy rate.It is the best transfer method for patients who received more than 10 oocytes.

Objective To investigate application of femoston combined with Kuntai capsule in poor ovarian responders (PORs) receiving vitro fertilization. Methods 120 women with poor ovarian response after receiving IVF were s randomly elected. Pre-treatment with femoston plus Kuntai capsule was used for three menstrual cycles before the next cycle of assisted reproductive treatment. FSH, LH, E2, AMH, number of antral follicles, PSV, days of Gn, ampoules of Gn, cycle cancellation rate, E2 value of the day of HCG, follicle of less than 16mm, number of oocytes, fertilization rate, and number of good quality embryos were compared before and after treatment used. Results After pre-treatment, levels of FSH and LH were decreased, AMH, PSV were increased, E2 value of the day of HCG, number of antral follicles, follicle of less than 16 mm, oocytes, fertilization rate, and good quality embryos were increased; cycle cancellation rate was decreased, with significant differences (P< 0.05). Conclusions Femoston combined with kuntai capsule can effectively increase the functional reserve of the ovarian in poor ovarian responders, and can improve the outcome of IVF.

Objective To validate the efficiency of 27-plex single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) multiplex system for ancestry inference. Methods The 27-plex SNP system was validated for its sensitivity and species specificity. A total of 533 samples were collected from African, Southern Chinese Han, China's ethic minorities (Yi, Hui, Miao, Tibet, and Uygur), European, Central Asian, Western Asian, Southern Asian, Southeast Asian and South American populations for clustering analysis of the genotypes by citing 3 representative continental ancestral groups [East Asia (CHB), Europe (CEU), and Africa (YRI)] from HapMap database. Results The system sensitivity is 0.125 ng. Twenty and six genotypes were detected in chimpanzee and monkeys, respectively. Except in rs10496971, no more products were found in other animals. The system was capable of differentiating intercontinental populations but not of distinguishing between East Asian and Southeast Asian population or between Southern Chinese Han population and Chinese Ethnic populations (Hui, Miao, Yi and Tibet). This system achieved a 100%accuracy for intercontinental population source inference for 46 blind test samples. Conclusion 27-plex SNPs multiplex system has a high sensitivity and species specificity and can correctly differentiate the ancestry origins of individuals from African, European and East Asian for criminal case investigation. But this system is not capable of distinguishing subpopulation groups and more specific ancestry-informative markers are needed to improve its recognition of Southeast Asian and Chinese ethnic populations.

An analytical method was developed for determination of ginkgolic acids in Yinxing Tongzhi Dropping Pills by ultra high performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry. The samples were purified by mix-mode anion exchange and reversed-phase SPE. A chromatographic column, Waters Cortecs T3 (50 mm×2.1 mm, 2.7 μm), was used with acetonitrile-methanol-1% acetic acid (44:44:12) as the mobile phase. The ginkgolic acids were detected by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in negative mode with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. Ginkgolic acid C13:0, C15:1 and C17:1 possessed good linear correlation in the mass concentration range from 0.2 to 200 μg·L^-1, 2 to 200 μg·L^-1, 4 to 200 μg·L^-1, respectively, with the correlation coefficients more than 0.999. The mean recoveries at spiked levels of 50, 250 and 600 μg·kg^-1 were in the range of 70.8%-95.1%, and the RSDs were 0.7%-8.6%. The limits of quantification were 1, 10, 20 μg·kg^-1, respectively. The method could be applied to the analysis of ginkgolic acids in complex matrix samples.

Hip fracture in the elderly is characterized by high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality and has been recognized as a public health issue threatening their health. Surgery is the preferred choice for the treatment of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) has an extremely high incidence rate during the perioperative period, and may significantly increase the risk of patients′ death once it progresses to pulmonary embolism. In response to this issue, the clinical guidelines and expert consensuses all emphasize active application of comprehensive preventive measures, including basic prevention, physical prevention, and pharmacological prevention. In this prevention system, basic prevention is the basis of physical and pharmacological prevention. However,there is a lack of unified and definite recommendations for basic preventive measures in clinical practice. To this end, the Orthopedic Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association and Nursing Department of the Orthopedic Branch of the China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care organized relevant nursing experts to formulate Expert consensus on perioperative basic prevention for lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2024) . A total of 10 recommendations were proposed, aiming to standardize the basic preventive measures for lower extremity DVT in elderly patients with hip fractures during the perioperative period and promote their subsequent rehabilitation.
