1.Study on postpartum hemorrhage in cesarean section in Nanjing
Chinese Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology 2000;0(12):-
Objective To investigate postpartum blood lose of cesarean section (CS) within 24 hrs in Nanjing area Methods Stratified samples were collected from hospitals of different levels and located at different districts The amount of postpartum blood loss was precisely measured by methods of weight, volume and area Results There were 1 125 CS in a total of 4 171 deliveries The main indications for CS were cephalo pelvic disproportion, fetal distress, breech presentation, and there was 10 4% of CS without definite causes The average amount of blood loss was 520 ml in CS, which was far more than that in vaginal delivery ( n = 3 046) If postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is defined as blood lose of 500ml or more, the incidence of PPH was 53 7%; if it is defined as 700 ml, the incidence was 19 8% Conclusions Cesarean section is an important cause of PPH, and CS without proper indication should be avoided It seems reasonable to defined the criteria of PPH in CS as 700 ml or more

Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2012;28(31):15-17
Objective To evaluate the application effect of nurse based,with clinicians and anesthesiologists supervised acute pain service (NBASS-APS)in clinical postoperative pain management.Methods 300 cases of abdominal surgery were divided into the observation group and the control group with 150 cases in each group,the observation group was given NBASS-APS,the control group used the traditional acute pain service mode.The total cost and postoperative analgesia effect were recorded in all patients.Results The hospitalization costs,anal exhaust time,ambulation time and hospital stay in the observation group were significantly less than those in the control group,and postoperative 48h sleep time was significantly longer than that in the control group,VAS scores of each time period were significant-ly lower than those in the control group,there was significant difference.Conclusions Application of NBASS-APS in patients after abdominal surgery can effectively reduce hospitalization costs and improve cost efficiency.
3.Effect of labetalol for mild to moderate hypertension during pregnancy on maternal and fetal outcomes: a meta-analysis
Chinese Journal of Perinatal Medicine 2014;17(10):682-688
Objective To review outcomes in randomized controlled trials comparing labetalol with other anti hypertensives/placebo/no drug for mild to moderate hypertension in pregnancy.Methods We searched PubMed,China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database and VIP Database and performed a meta analysis of randomized controlled trials of labetalol for hypertension in pregnancy.Data were entered into RevMan software for analysis [relative risk (RR) and its 95% confidence interval (CI)].Results Seven studies were included in the meta-analysis.Four trials (553 women) compared labetalol with methyldopa for mild to moderate hypertension in pregnancy.Labetalol reduced the risk of severe hypertension (RR=0.52,95%CI:0.31-0.88) and proteinuria (RR=0.57,95%CI:0.36 0.91).The incidence of preterm birth and small-for-gestational-age infants was similar between these two groups.Five trials (720 women) compared labetalol with placebo/no drug for mild to moderate hypertension in pregnancy.Labetalol reduced the risk of severe hypertension (RR=0.29,95%CI:0.16-0.53) and proteinuria (RR-0.73,95%CI:0.56-0.95) and showed no effect on preterm birth and small-for-gestational-age infants.Conclusions The results support the use of labetalol for mild to moderate hypertension in pregnancy.Labetalol is more effective in treating hypertension than methyldopa.However,due to the quality of the included studies,clinical effects of labetalol need to be evaluated in high quality randomized controlled trials.
4.The abnormality and genetic disorders of X chromosome involved in premature ovarian failure
Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2004;0(02):-
The premature ovarian failure(POF) may be inherited as an X-linked condition.Among genetic causes,X monosomy or X deletions and translocations are known to be responsible for POF.The X chromosome disorders such as mutations of the human bone morphogenetic protein-15 gene,the zinc finger protein gene,the X-inactivation-specific transcript gene,the drosophila melanogaster diaphanous gene,the X 2 linked aminopeptidaseP enzyme gene,the fragile X mental retardation gene are associated with POF.
5.Early prediction of breast cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2011;38(2):118-120
Between 40 to 60, especially after menopause, breast cancer have a higher incidence in women population. CA-153 ( carbohydrate antigen-153 ) is a tumor marker commonly used for monitoring breast cancer in clinic. However, CA-153 appears to have no clinical value for early diagnosis of breast cancer. Gene expression profiling technology becomes hot-spot through which some breast cancer related genes have been found. Moreover, the methods used for diagnosis of breast cancer also has certain shortcomings, and it is still uncertain that breast cancer is likely to be found at the early stage or be predicted in advance.
6.Material features, biocompatibility of coronary artery stent and related complications following implantation
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2010;14(16):2999-3002
OBJECTIVE:To explore the material features and biocompatibility of coronary artery stent and related complications following implantation.METHODS:The databases of CNKI and Medline were searched by the first author using key words of "coronary artery stent,material,biocompatibility and complications" both in English and Chinese.Meta analysis or repetitive studies were excluded,and 16 papers were included in this analysis.RESULTS:Stent materials play an important role in reducing inflammatory reaction and restenosis following stent implantation.As a medical material for humans,the features of stent should be meet the requirements of reliable distensibility,mechanical persistence,good flexibilit and geometrical stability,possible small diameter,excellent blood compatibility,as well as good corrosion resistance.All of these depended on the mechanical and physical features of materials.CONCLUSION:The study of drug-coating stent and drug-eluting stent reduced the restenosis rates following implantation,and the biodegradable stent also attracted more attention.When treating coronary heart disease with cardiovascular stent,the complications should be avoided except consideration of the successful rate of reperfusion.
7.Role of imprinted gene Insulin-like growth factor 2 in fetal growth
Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2003;0(06):-
Genomic imprinting plays a fundamental role in mammal fetal growth and behavior. Abnormal expression of imprinted genes is associated with some genetic diseases and cancers. Imprinted insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF-2) controls fetal growth by regulating nutrient transportation in placenta. Paternal uniparental disomy, duplication of paternal allele and loss of imprinting are 3 molecular mechanisms of IGF-2 overexpression that can cause Beckwith-Weidemann’s syndrome (BWS). Some assisted reproductive techniques may cause some epigenetic changes that affect embryonic and postnatal development.
