Objective To explore the value of automatic photography in the observation of results of Schistosoma japoni?cum miracidium hatching experiments. Methods Some fresh S. japonicum eggs were added into cow feces,and the samples of feces were divided into a low infested experimental group and a high infested group(40 samples each group). In addition,there was a negative control group with 40 samples of cow feces without S. japonicum eggs. The conventional nylon bag S. japonicum miracidium hatching experiments were performed. The process was observed with the method of flashlight and magnifying glass combined with automatic video(automatic photography method),and,at the same time,with the naked eye observation meth?od. The results were compared. Results In the low infested group,the miracidium positive detection rates were 57.5% and 85.0%by the naked eye observation method and automatic photography method,respectively(χ2=11.723,P<0.05). In the high infested group,the positive detection rates were 97.5%and 100%by the naked eye observation method and automatic pho?tography method,respectively(χ2= 1.253,P > 0.05). In the two infested groups,the average positive detection rates were 77.5% and 92.5% by the naked eye observation method and automatic photography method,respectively(χ2 = 6.894,P <0.05). Conclusion The automatic photography can effectively improve the positive detection rate in the S. japonicum miracidi?um hatching experiments.

Objective To investigate the effective administration model for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in the community. Methods In a prospective study, the 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed in 4 713 resident pregnant women over 20 years old who received antenatal care in a general hospital or a special hospital from Sep. 2011 to Aug. 2012. Five hundred and thirty-three pregnant women were diagnosed as GDM, 198 patients who labored in a general hospital were enrolled in thegroup A , and the rest who labored in a special hospital were enrolled in the group B. 198 cases with non-GDM were enrolled in the group C. Results The incidence of GDM during this study period was 11.3%. The maternal age , gestationl weeks and OGTT results of patients in the three groups were significantly different (P < 0.05). With the increase of maternal age of pregnant women, the blood glucose increased while the gestationl weeks descreased. No significant differencees were shown in prevalence of polyhydramnios, hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy, premature labor, macrosomia , fetal growth restriction and neonatal asphyxia among the three groups (P > 0.05). However, significant differences were found in the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage and cesarean section. The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage increased significantly in the patients of group B (χ2= 7.156, v = 2, P = 0.028). The incidence of cesarean section increased significantly in the patients of group A (χ2= 63.592, v = 2, P = 0.000). Conclusion Establishing an effective administration model for gestational diabetes mellitus in the community could control the incidence of GDM associated complications.

Objective:To explore the association of tumor associated macrophages (TAM) with tumor invasiveness, metastasis and prognosis in cardia carcinoma tissues.Methods:The cancer tissues and pericarcinomatous tissues of 100 patients with cardia carcinoma who underwent D2 radical operation in the First Hospital of Putian City from January 2014 to January 2015 were collected. M2-type TAM was marked with CD163. The tissue microarray was made and the expression of CD163 in microarray tissues was detected by using immunohistochemistry. The median number of CD163 positive cells in all cancer tissues was taken as the cut-off value. The patients with the mean number of CD163 positive cells ≥ the cut-off value were those with high TAM infiltration, and vice versa. The association of TAM infiltration with clinicopathological features and prognosis was analyzed, and Cox proportional hazards model was used for multivariate analysis of survival.Results:The positive cell median number of CD163 in cardia carcinoma tissues was higher than that in adjacent tissues [the median number ( P25, P75): 32/high power field (HP) (16/HP, 46/HP) vs. 6/HP (4/HP, 11/HP)], and the difference was statistically significant ( Z = -35.044, P < 0.01). There were 48 cases in low invasive group (< 32/HP) and 52 cases in high invasive group (≥32/HP). The proportion of patients with high TAM infiltration in serosa and extraserosa was higher than that in mucosa and muscle [60.9% (39/64) vs. 36.1% (13/36)], and the proportion of patients with high TAM infiltration for patients with lymph node metastasis was higher than that for patients without lymph node metastasis [61.8% (42/68) vs. 31.3% (10/32)], and the proportion of patients with high TAM infiltration for those with TNM stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ was higher than that for those with TNM stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ [64.4% (38/59) vs. 34.1% (14/41)], and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The median overall survival time of high TAM group was shorter than that of low TAM group [24.00 months (95% CI 17.25-43.50 months) vs. 62.00 months (95% CI 34.00-68.00)], and the difference in overall survival was statistically significant (χ 2 = 18.137, P < 0.01). Lymph node metastasis ( HR = 0.301, 95% CI 0.105-0.862, P = 0.025), TNM staging ( HR = 8.404, 95% CI 2.810-25.133, P < 0.01) and TAM infiltration level in cancer tissues ( HR = 4.277, 95% CI 2.372-7.712, P < 0.01) were independent influencing factors for overall survival of patients. Conclusions:TAM plays an important role in the invasion and metastasis of cardia carcinoma and can be used as an independent predictor of biological behavior and prognosis in cardia carcinoma.
