Clinical medicine professional degree education focuses on cultivating students' ability to engage in clinical practice, but the aim of medical postgraduate education program is to cultivate high-leveled clinical and research personnel. In the light of the problems that professional degree postgraduates majoring in obstetrics and gynecology are faced with such as unreasonable energy distribution in scientific research, the weak foundation of scientific research, the emergence of new trend of obstetrical and gynecological dis-eases, we have explored how to improve obstetrics and gynecology professional students' scientific research ability from several aspects such as the guidance of mentors, transferring learning and thinking and strength-ening the communication between various disciplines, to adapt to the requirements of the scientific develop-ment of modern obstetrics and gynecology.

2.2 in serum, the particle size of HDL shifted towards smaller sizes, which indicates that reverse cholesterol transport might be weakened and HDL maturation might be abnormal.

Objective To observe the toxicity of fangyouling after one month’s transdermal administration in rabbits and evaluate its security. Methods Forty rabbits were randomly divided into 4 groups including a control group and low,middle and high dose groups of fangyouling. The rabbits in the control group were administered with sunflower oil,and the other rabbits were administrated dermally with fangyouling of 50,300 and 2 000 mg/kg respectively once a day for 4 weeks. The general con?dition,the skin irritation reaction,body weight,food consumption,hematology,blood biochemistry,organ coefficients and his?topathological changes of all the rabbits were observed. Results There was no obvious effect on the general condition in all the rabbits. However,the mild skin irritation was observed in 2 rabbits of the middle dose group and 4 rabbits of the high?dose group. The decreases of body weight and food consumption were noted in the high dose group. No changes were detected of hema?tology,blood biochemistry or viscera pathological at all dose levels. Conclusion The dose of non?toxic response of fangyouling is 50 mg/kg at this study condition.

Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the determination of thymol in thymol alcoholic solutions. Methods: An Agilent Eclipse XDB-C18(250 mm ×4.6 mm,5μm) column was used with the mobile phase of methanol-water (65∶35), the flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1 . the detection wavelength was 275nm, the injection volume was 10μl, and the column tenperature was 25℃.

Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) technology combined with cluster analysis method was used to classify 75 batches of crystalline ceftriaxone sodium into subtypes, the crystalline characteristics of each subtype were measured with scanning electron microscope (SEM). By comparing some parameters of these subtypes correlated to crystallization process of ceftriaxone sodium, such as salification rate, water content in different subtypes, as well as by studying different lattice stabilities, different compatibilities with rubber closures during accelerated stability tests, the key point to improve the quality of domestic ceftriaxone sodium was disclosed. The results of this paper indicated that the fine structure of the products could be controlled well by improving the salification and crystallization process. As a result, the subtype II of ceftriaxone sodium with high stability can be produced.

AIM: To investigate apolipoprotein A-Ⅰ gene (Apo A-Ⅰ) polymorphism and its relationship with serum HDL subclasses in patients with hyperlipidemia (HL). METHODS: Apo A-Ⅰ genotype was assayed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The subclasses of serum HDL in 118 patients with hyperlipidemia and 109 healthy subjects were determined by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis conjunction with immunodetection method. RESULTS: Both in HL group and the control group, G/G and C/C genotypes were the most frequent at -78 bp and +83 bp of Apo A-Ⅰ gene, respectively. The frequency of rare A allele at -78 bp in HL group was significantly higher than that in control group. In HL group, subjects with G/A mutation had higher serum levels of TG, Apo C-Ⅲ, pre ?_1-HDL and HDL_ 3a , and lower levels of HDL_ 2a and HDL_ 2b compared to the subjects with G/G genotype. CONCLUSION: The G/A transition in the -78 bp position of the Apo A-Ⅰ gene promoter in patients with hyperlipidemia is associated with HDL subclasses. There is a general shift toward smaller sized HDL, which, in turn, indicates that HDL maturation might be abnormal.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of Cigu Xiaozhi pills on expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) in rat with nonalcoholic steatoheptatitis (NASH).

METHODFifty male SD rats were divided randomly into five groups: the normal group (n = 10), the model group (n = 10), the high dosage group (n = 10) and the little dosage group of the treatment (n = 10), Dongbao Gantai group (n = 10). Rats in normal control group were fed with standard diet. Rats in other four groups were established models of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and were treated simultaneously with traditional Chinese medicine and positive medicine. Histopathological changes in the liver were observed. The serum ALT, AST, TG, TC and hepatic MDA, SOD, GPX were detected histologically. The expression of TNF-alpha in the liver was determined using the immunohistochemical technique and RT-PCR.

RESULTIn model group, extensive adipose degeneration and inflammatory cell infiltration were found in the liver. In treatment groups steatohepatitis were markedly alleviated. Compared with model group, TG, TC, ALT, AST of the serum and MDA of liver tissue were reduced significantly, and SOD, GPX were increased significantly in treatment groups and positive control group (P < 0.05). TNF-alpha was not expressed almost in normal rat liver and was expressed highly in model rat liver. Compared with model group, the TNF-alpha mRNA and protein expression were significantly lower in liver of treatment groups and positive control group (P < 0.05). And the effects of high dosage group surpass than those of Dongbao Gantai group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONTNF-alpha plays an important role in NASH pathogenesis. Cigu Xiaozhi pills can effectively treat experimental nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in rats, and its mechanism may be associated with ameliorating hepatocellular steatosis, removing the free radicals and enhancing the capability of anti-oxidation and anti-inflammatory.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of serum FER, AFP and AFP-L3 alone or in combination for diagnosis of primary hepatic carcinoma( PHC).Methods This was a case-control study.
Serum FER, AFP and AFP-L3 were determined in 212 patients with PHC ( StageⅠ45 cases, StageⅡ78 cases, StageⅢ81 cases, StageⅣ8 cases) , 127 patients with cirrhosis, 101 patients with chronic hepatitis and 98 controls in the Beijing Youan Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2014 to December 2014.Levels of FER, AFP and AFP-L3 were measured by chemiluminescence, while serum samples were pre-treatment with affinity adsorption before AFP-L3 detection.FER, AFP and AFP-L3 levels were analyzed using the nonparametric Wilcoxon test among all groups.Diagnostic performance were analyzed among the groups with the three biomarkers independently and combined.Logistic regression, plotted ROC curve and calculated the area under ROC curve ( AUC) were applied to assess the diagnostic value of each index.Results Serum concentration of FER in PHC, cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis groups and healthy controls were 308.45 ( 148.98 -662.80 ) , 151.70 ( 51.44 -507.40 ) , 298.20 ( 157.30 -701.80 ) , 113.50( 54.98-221.38) μg/L, respectively.The concentration of AFP were 48.50(5.25 -748.40), 3.91(1.80-17.53), 4.76 (2.29-30.56), 2.57 (0.93-3.68) μg/L in each group.The serum levels of AFP-L3 in each group were 4.75(0.61-127.95), 0.61 (0.61-2.50), 0.61 (0.61-2.85), 0.61 (0.61-0.61) μg/L.The concentration of FER, AFP and AFP-L3 differs statistically in PHC, cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis group and healthy controls (χ2 =67.66,146.31,119.02,P<0.001).The content of serum FER, AFP and AFP-L3 increased gradually as the stage level aggravating ( StageⅠ-Ⅳ) , there was significant differences among groups (χ2 =21.63,22.68,21.98, P<0.001) .When using one serum marker, FER had the highest sensitivity (75.00%) , while AFP-L3 had the highest specificity (82.52%). While using two serum markers, FER/AFP had the highest sensitivity (89.15%) , FER+AFP-L3 and AFP+AFP-L3 had a higher specificity (86.20%).The combined detection of FER/AFP/AFP-L3 improved the sensitivity of the test to 89.15%, while FER+AFP+AFP-L3 had a specificity of 86.50%.The AUC of combination of FER, AFP and AFP-L3 was 0.803 ±0.019 (95% CI:0.765-0.841), which was higher than the AUC of either FER(0.748 ±0.022,95% CI:0.705-0.790, Z=4.67,P<0.001) and AFP-L3 (0.726 ±0.024,95% CI: 0.679 -0.772, Z=3.64,P<0.001).However, there was no significant difference in AUC between AFP alone ( 0.776 ±0.021, 95% CI: 0.735 -0.818 ) and the combined detection ( Z=1.34, P=0.18 ) .Conclusions FER was a potential marker for PHC diagnosis.The combination of FER, AFP and AFP-L3 has higher value of clinical applications than one of them independently.
