Objective To investigate the effects of adrenomedullin (ADM) on the expression of nuclear transcription factor-?B (NF-?B) in cultured human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. Methods Cultured human RPE cells were exposed to ADM with the concentration of 10 -7mol/L or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) with the concentration of 10 ?g/ml for 60 minutes. Nuclear translocation of NF-?B was determined by immunofluorescence staining. Western blotting analysis was used to check the expression of NF-?B protein. Results In cultured human RPE cells that were not stimulated, weak NF-?B positive green flurescence was localized in the cytoplasm. After exposed to ADM or LPS for 60 minutes, there was bright NF-?B nuclear staining in cultured human RPE cells. The results of Western blotting analysis demonstrated that in cultured human RPE cells that were not stimulated, a single weak protein strip with the relative molecular weight of 36?103 identified as immunoreative NF-?B could be observed. Both ADM and LPS could markedly increase the expression of NF-?B protein in cytoplasm. Conclusions NF-?B-dependent signal transduction pathway can be activated in cultured human RPE cells by ADM. ADM could induce NF-?B nuclear translocation and increase the expression of the protein in cytoplasm. NF-?B-dependent signal transduction pathway may play an importantrole in the function of ADM.

Objective To investigate the reverse effect and mechanism of the extracted solution of chinese medicine MBC on the drug-resistance of K562/ADM in vitro. Methods MTT assay was used to determine the IC50 of ADM on K562/ADM cell line and the reverse multiples of the drug-resistance before and after MBC treatment. Flow cytometry(FCM) was applied to assess the intracellular concentration of Rh123. Results 8?10 -1 ?g/ml MBC increased cytotoxic effect of ADM on 562/ADM cells, the reverse multiple was 6 28, and MBC could increase the intracellular concentration of Rh123. Conclusion MBC could increase killing effect of ADM on the drug-resistant K562/ADM cell and partly reverse the drug-resistance of K562/ADM cell.

0.05),but the ratio of fPSA/tPSA in PC group was very lower than that in BPH group(P20.0 ?g/L,the sensitivity and the specificity was 91.6%(22/24) and 87.5%(21/24).Conclusion It can improve the differential diagnosis between PC and BPH to use the ratio of fPSA/tPSA combining with the serum tPSA.It is important for the observation of the differential diagnosis and the therapeutic effects of PC and the preparation of the high risk persons and etc.

Objective To compare the therapeutic effects of two different intervention methods in the treatment of Navelbine leakage.Methods 40 cases with Navelbine leakage were collected and randomly divided into the control group and the observation group in equal number.Local block therapy in earlier period was used in the control group,and non-local block therapy was adopted in the observation group.Then the therapeutic effects of the two methods were compared.Results The differences of effect between the observation group and the control group were significant.Conclusions Local medicine injection in earlier period,wet compress and microwave physiotherapy after 24 hours is more effective than the local block in earlier period in the treatment of Navelbine leakage.It may shorten the time of pain and detumesccnce obviously,so it is worth popularizing clinically.

ObjectiveTo discuss the effect of health education pathways in old patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods62 old patients undergoing iaparoscopic cholecystectomy were divided into the control group and the observation group, each group included 31 patients. The control group used the traditional method of health education, and the observation group adopted health education pathways. The satisfaction degree of patients with nursing and incidence of postoperative complication were compared between the two groups using χ2 test and t test. ResultsThe satisfaction degree of patients with nursing was higher and incidence of postoperative complication was lower in the observation group com-pared with those of the control group. ConclusionsHealth education clinical pathway can raise the edu-cation ability of nurses, increase the satisfaction degree of patients, reduce the complications and improve the serf- guard ability of the old people.

Objective To investigate the efficiency of ring butterfly sewing in lower uterine segment aided with tourniquet in treating pernicious placenta previa combined with placenta percreta. Methods Twelve pregnant women diagnosed with pernicious placenta previa combined with placenta percreta by prenatal ultrasound in Peking University First Hospital from April 1, 2012 to November 30, 2014, were enrolled. All of them received elective cesarean delivery using ring butterfly sewing in lower uterine segment aided with tourniquet. The efficiency of this novel technique, in term of blood loss and vital signs during operation, blood transfusion, and postoperative recovery, was analyzed. Results Twelve cases were diagnosed with placenta percreta during operation, with placenta invading the perimetrium in seven cases and urinary bladder being involved in one case. Ring butterfly sewing in lower uterine segment aided with tourniquet during elective cesarean delivery was all successful in the 12 cases. The median amount of blood loss was 1 000(400-2 000) ml during operation and the amount of blood loss was lower than 1 000 ml in three cases. Two cases received no blood transfusion, and the median blood transfusion in the other 10 cases were 400(400-1 200) ml. The mean operation time was (75±22) min (43-131) min. Eleven cases had normal lochia and temperature after operation and the other one had placenta invading urinary bladder and partial placenta in situ, and developed fever at day 3 after operation, but recovered after antibiotic treatment, and no placenta tissue was seen by ultrasound at day 59 after operation. Conclusions The ring butterfly sewing in lower uterine segment aided with tourniquet is highly effective for the pernicious placenta previa combined with placenta percreta, and it is a simple, fast and fertility sparing technique with low blood loss and without usage of special equipment.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics (social background,comorbidity,complications and outcomes of pregnancy) of multipara in Beijing area.Methods A systematic cluster sampling survey was conducted on 15 194 pregnant women who gave birth at 15 hospitals in Beijing from January to June in 2013.The age,gestational weeks at delivery,education background,geographical distribution,health insurance coverage,mode of delivery,comorbidity and complications of pregnancy,pregnant outcomes and other relevant clinical data were collected and analyzed with two-sample t test or Chi-square test.Results The proportion of multipara in Beijing area was 21.12% (3 209/15 194),the per capita number of delivery was 1.23 (18 745/15 194).The ratio of women with higher education background,average monthly household income over 3 000 yuan,urban residence and social insurance in multipara were much lower than those in primipara (all P<0.05).The mean maternal age of multipara was (30.02±4.88) years,pre-pregnancy body mass index was 22.24 ± 3.48,which were all higher than those of primipara [(27.82 ± 4.03) years and 21.54 ± 3.29,respectively,t=23.440 and 11.115,all P<0.01].And the gestational weeks at delivery and mean weight gain during pregnancy of multipara was less than that of primipara [(39.15 ±1.67) vs (39.49 ± 1.67) weeks,t=-14.044,P=0.000;(14.66±6.24) vs (15.81 ± 5.86) kg,t=-9.448,P=0.000],while the levels of total cholesterol,triglyceride and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol and the incidence of macrosomia were significantly higher [(5.59± 1.14) vs (5.24± 1.15) mmol/L,(2.31± 1.38) vs (1.96± 1.34) mmol/L,(3.03±0.91) vs (2.82±0.87) mmol/L,t=12.867,15.718 and 10.275,all P<0.01;9.29% (298/3 209) vs 7.24% (868/11 985),x2=14.926,P=0.000].Significantly lower incidences of abnormal amniotic fluid volume,premature rupture of membranes,fetal distress,abnormal labor and vaginal delivery (all P < 0.01),but higher neonatal birth weight [(3 374.38 ±504.57) vs (3 328.39±488.70) g,t=4.839,P=0.000] and cesarean section rate [45.96% (1 475/3 209) vs 42.49%(5 092/11 985),x2=12.477,P<0.01] were found in multipara than in primipara.Compared with primipara,multipara had higher incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus,diabetes during pregnancy,pregnancy complicated with cardiovascular problems,hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy [adjusted OR(95%CI):1.265 (1.135-1.411),1.799 (1.215 2.663),1.567 (1.221-2.347),1.647 (1.300-2.086),all P<0.01].Conclusions The primipara is the major reproductive population in Beijing area.However,the multipara requires close antenatal care because of their susceptibility to pregnant complications.
