Several genetic polymorphisms of the aldosterone synthase gene(CYP11B2),which may influence the plasma aldosterone levels,had been reported to influence the blood glucose levels.In addition to the effects of sodium()(and consequently water) resorption and potassium excretion(),aldosterone could be involved in the development and progression of diabetes and its chronic complications.This paper also discussed the therapeutic significance of aldosterone receptor antagonists on the occcurance of chronic diabetic complications.

Objective To better understand the knowledge, attitudes, practice (KAP) status and relative demand to post abortion family planning service (PAFPS) in medical staffs of obstetrics and gynecology department in Tianjin. Meth?ods By using random, stratified and clustered sampling approach, 290 obstetrics and gynecology personnels in Tianjin were selected. A Self-Administered Questionnaire on PAFPS KAP was employed to survey the general characteristics, aware?ness of PAFPS knowledge, attitudes to PAFPS and the occurrence of unintended pregnancy themselves, and service capabili?ties of PAFPS and request of continuing education. Results The respondents showed defects in PAFPS forms, follow-up ar?rangements and contraceptive method after abortion. The average knowledge score was higher in tertiary medical institution than that of secondary medical institutions. The score was higher in clinical doctors than that of nurses, and the higher the ti?tle, the higher the score. The 95.34%of respondents believed that it was necessary to develop PAFPS widely. But 93.55%of respondents thought that it can be difficult to carry out PAFPS as being required because of unclear service process, shortage of funds, human resource constraints, inadequate facilities and weak sense of services. The 53.36%of respondents, who had sexual life history, occurred unintended pregnancy themselves. The current defects of PAFPS were no standardized service processes, missing of medium-term and long-term follow-up, missing of collective consulting, providing contraceptives not timely and hadn′t pay attention to contraceptive advice. There were 90.68%medical personnels showed demand on relative training. Conclusion It′s necessary to perform continuing education about PAFPS to obstetrics and gynecology personnels via different intervention. At the same time, we should increase investment and make the service processes perfectly, so as to improve the level of PAFPS in obstetrics and gynecology medical staffs.

Objective:To explore the influence of different cell culture methods in the genome-wide DNA methylation status of breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells,and to clarify the relationship between genome-wide DNA methylation status and cell growth environment and the role of genome-wide DNA methylation status in the occurrence and development of tumor.Methods:The MDA-MB-231 cells were cultured with 2D and 3D cell culture models and mouse orthotopic transplantation model (Ti model)and collected, then DNA was extracted by DNA extraction kit and the genome-wide DNA methylation status of MDA-MB-231 cells after cultured with three different culture methods was detected by DNA methylation chip,then the value of beta,DiffScore and Delta_Beta of the CpG loci of each gene were calculated by applying Genomestudio software, and the differential methylation genes were screened by Genomestudio software and GO and Pathway analysis of these genes were performed in DAVID on-line analysis tool.Results:All 480 genes of the MDA-MB-231 cells showed significant differences in the degree of methylation in 3D and 2D models (P<0.05);86 448 genes in 3D and Ti models (P<0.05);90 005 genes in Ti and 2D models (P<0.05).The differential methylation genes in 3D and 2D,3D and Ti,and Ti and 2D models were enriched on the multicellular organismal development term and cell differentiation term (P<0.05);also on MAPK signaling pathway,cell adhesion molecules (CAMs),and regulation of actin cytoskeleton (P<0.05). Conclusion:There are differences in genome-wide DNA methylation status of MDA-MB-231 cells cultured in 2D, 3D cell culture and Ti models.

Objective:To prepare PLGA nanoparticles modified with folic acid conjugated chitosan oligosaccharide containing pa-clitaxel (F-CS-PLGA-NPs) and study the inhibitory effect on SKOV-3. Methods:F-CS-PLGA-NPs were prepared by an interface dep-osition method, 30% ethanol was used as the release medium for the in vitro release profiles of nanoparticles, and MTT was adopted to evaluate the inhibitory effect of paclitaxel with different formulations and concentrations on SKOV-3. Results:The particle size and zeta potential of F-CS-PLGA-NPs was (321 ± 0. 76) nm and (22. 6 ± 0. 26) mV, respectively, the drug loading was (5. 1 ± 0. 25)%, and the encapsulation efficiency was (41. 96 ± 1. 96)%. F-CS-PLGA-NPs had a similar in vitro release profiles with the ordinary nanoparti-cles ( PLGA-NPs) . About 35% of paclitaxel was released from the nanoparticles in the initial 24 h, and then a near zero order release at a relative slow rate was shown, and the cumulative release rate in 144 h was about 75%. The results of cell experiments suggested that at the same paclitaxel concentration, the inhibition effect of F-CS-PLGA-NPs group was stronger than that of the PLGA-NPs group and the solution group. The inhibition effect of F-CS-PLGA-NPs could be reduced by free folic acid. Conclusion:PLGA nanoparticles modified with folic acid conjugated chitosan oligosaccharide can increase the targeting efficiency in SKOVS-3 tumor cells.

Objective: In order to observe the kinds and intensity of the working noise of Yansan Petrochemical Co. and the effects caused by the working noise on the workers＇ vestibular and auditory function. Method :The intensity and frequency of the working noise were recorded by exactolnoisemeter in the workshop. One hundred and seventeen workers were tested in routine pure-tone tested method. The SPVN and ABR were tested within fifty-one workers of all. Result:The working noise of Yansan Petrochemical Co. belongs to the broad band and steady noise. The intensity of the working noise were during 85.7～104.0 dB (A) and the main frequency were during 1～8 kHz. About 59 percent workers who exposed to the working noise had hearing loss. The most hearing-loss were in the high frequency. The hearing-loss of speech frequency were slight. Workers who have more six years standing have obviously increased hearing-loss than the workers who have less five years standing. There were significant differences the ABR thresholds and wave-interval between the tested and controlled groups. The SPVN and CP were abnormal in more than 17.4 percent workers with hearing loss. Conclusion: The working noise of Yansan Petrochemical Co. belongs to the broad band and steady noise. Working noise can lead to workers＇ hearing loss of certain degrees who exposed in the noise for a long time. Obvious correlation was not defined between the hearing-loss and the abnormal vestibular response group.

Objective To assess whether asymmetric spin echo version of echo planar imaging (ASE EPI) sequence can reflect cerebral oxygen metabolism by means of the changes in oxygen extraction fraction values before and after surgical operations in the canine model of ischimia. Methods A total of 12 healthy crossbreed dogs were enrolled in this study. All canines underwent cerebral MR imaging including coronal T2WI, DWI, MRA, ASE EPI and 3D PCASL. The bilateral carotid arteries (CA) were separated by surgical operations. The bilateral CA were ligated in 6 dogs, and the other 6 dogs had embolization in ligated bilateral CA. The cerebral MR imaging with the above protocol was repeated at 1 hour after surgical operation for each dog. All dogs were executed when they finished the MR examinations. Then the whole brains of the dogs were taken out for cutting coronal sections and 2, 3, 5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. The ASE EPI data were processed by the Functool software in the workstation to generate OEF maps. For measuring the OEF values before and 1 hour after surgical operations, one and the same region of interest (ROI) was respectively placed in the left and right hemispheres on the OEF maps for each dog. 3D PCASL data were processed by the Functool software in the workstation to yield CBF maps. The method for measuring the CBF values before and 1 hour after surgical operations on CBF maps was same as that for measuring on OEF maps. The changes of measurements before and after surgical operations were compared between the dogs with ligated bilateral CA and the dogs with embolization in ligated bilateral CA by using an independent samples t test. The measurements before and after surgical operations were respectively compared in the dogs with ligated bilateral CA and the dogs with embolization in ligated bilateral CA by using a paired t-test. The cutting slices with TTC staining were analysed for determining ischimia. Results The CBF values of the dogs with ligated bilateral CA were (59.81±23.59) and (38.56± 12.98) ml/(min · 100 g) before and after surgical operations, respectively. The CBF values of the dogs with embolization in ligated bilateral CA were (58.94±18.35) and (28.01±11.41) ml/(min·100 g) before and after surgical operations, respectively. The CBF values were significantly lower before surgical operations than after surgical operations in the dogs with ligated bilateral CA and the dogs with embolization in ligated bilateral CA, respectively (t=8.92 and 13.42, respectively; P=0.00, respectively). The CBF values were decreased more significantly in the dogs with embolization in ligated bilateral CA than in the dogs with ligated bilateral CA (t=2.92, P=0.00). The OEF values of the dogs with ligated bilateral CA were 0.29±0.02 and 0.32 ± 0.06 before and after surgical operations, respectively. The OEF values of the dogs with embolization in ligated bilateral CA were 0.29 ± 0.02 and 0.35 ± 0.06 before and after surgical operations, respectively. The OEF values were significantly higher before surgical operations than after surgical operations in the dogs with ligated bilateral CA and the dogs with embolization in ligated bilateral CA, respectively (t=-7.21 and-4.43, respectively;P=0.00, respectively). The OEF values were increased more significantly in the dogs with embolization in ligated bilateral CA than in the dogs with ligated bilateral CA (t=2.18, P=0.03). The pathological results showed that the dogs with embolization in ligated bilateral CA had swollen cortex with focal infarction which was matched with the hyperintensity areas on the OEF and DWI images. However, the dogs with ligated bilateral CA only had swollen cortex whereas didn't have focal infarction. Conclusions ASE EPI sequence can reliably reflect cerebral oxygen metabolism in ischemia. This sequence has an important role for assessing hemodynamic state in patients with cerebral vascular diseases.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and treatment of residual gallbladder lesions after cholecystectomy.Methods The retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 83 patients with residual gallbladder lesions after cholecystectomy who were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University between January 2009 and April 2016 were collected.Among the 83 patients,74 had residual gallbladder (41 combined with bile duct stones and 33 with simple residual gallbladder)and 9 had simple residual bile duct stones.Patients received laboratory and imaging examinations,and then selected suitable surgery according to residual lesions.Observation indicators included:(1) clinical features:medical history,clinical manifestation,features of laboratory and imaging examinations;(2) surgical and postoperative situations:surgical procedure,operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss,time of drainagetube removal,postoperative complications and duration of postoperative hospital stay;(3) postoperative pathological examination;(4) follow-up situation.Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect survival of patients and recurrence of lesions using abdomen color Doppler ultrasound up to October 2016.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as ~ ±s.Results (1) Clinical features:① medical history:all the 83 patients had histories of cholecystectomy,including 57 with emergency operation and 26 with selective operation.② Clinical manifestation:initial clinical manifestation occurred at 1-324 months postoperatively,with an average time of 96 months.Of 83 patients,49 had right upper abdominal colic associated with right shoulder or back rediating pain,fever,nausea and vomiting,24 had jaundice as the main symptoms,8 had gradually worse conditions,with right upper quadrant abdominal pain,chills and fever associated with jaundice in the advanced stage and 2 had abdominal discomfort associated with incomplete intestinal obstruction.③ Laboratory examination:elevated alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) levels were detected in 48 patients,elevated total bilirubin (TBil) level in 28 patients and elevated serum and urinary amylase level in 4 patients,respectively.④ Imaging examination:of 83 patients,77 had positive results of magnetic resonanced eholangio-pancreatography (MRCP),43 had positive results of abdominal color Doppler ultrasound and 39 (4 combined with pancreatitis) had positive results of abdominal computed tomography (CT).(2) Surgical and postoperative situations:all the 83 patients underwent surgery.Of 74 patients with residual gallbladder,72 underwent residual gallbladder resection (of 41 combined with bile duct stones,35 undergoing residual gallbladder resection + bill duct exploration and removing the stone + T-tube drainage,6 initially undergoing endoscopic sphincterotomy for removing bile duct stones and then residual gallbladder resection and 31 undergoing simple residual gallbladder resection),1 combined with residual gallbladder cancer underwent residual gallbladder resection + common bile duct resection + hepatic duct-jejunum internal drainage and 1 combined with residual gallbladder cancer and common bile duct space-occupying lesion underwent palliative biliary-enterostomy.Nine patients with simple residual bile duct stones underwent endoscopic sphincterotomy for removing bile duct stones.Operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss,time of drainage-tube removal and duration of postoperative hospital stay were (92±39)minutes,(63±12)mL,(5±4)days and (9±5)days in 74 patients with residual gallbladder,respectively.There was no severe postoperative complication.Operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss and duration of postoperative hospital stay were (57±33)minutes,(25±9)mL and (5 ± 3) days in 9 patients with simple residual bile duct stones,respectively.No severe complication was occurred in 9 patients.(3) Postoperative pathological examination:the length of residual cystic duct in 74 patients with residual gallbladder was (2.8 ± 1.0) cm,combining with stones.Of 74 patients,simple hyperplasia of residual gallbladder were detected in 54 patients,dysplasia in 14 patients,tumor-like hyperplasia and benign tumor in 4 patients and adenocarcinoma in 2 patients.(4) Follow-up situation:all the 83 patients were followed up for 6-71 months,with a median time of 33 months.Eighty-one patients were healthy survival,without recurrence of lesions.One patient had recurrence of bile duct stones at 34 months postoperatively,and then was cured by choledochojejunostomy,without recurrence up to the end of follow-up.One patient with residual gallbladder cancer complicated with common bile duct space-occupying lesion died at 9 months postoperatively.Conclusions Patients have recurrent right upper abdominal colic associated with right shoulder or back rediating pain,fever and jaundice after cholecystectomy,and lesions of residual gallbladder or bile duct stones should be considered.Reoperation is safe and feasible for patients,with a good clinical outcome.

Objective: To investigate the reproductive health status of female workers in petrochemical industry, and to provide a reference for improving reproductive health status and developing preventive and control measures for female workers in petrochemical industry. Methods: A face-to-face questionnaire survey was performed from January to October, 2016. The Questionnaire on Women's Reproductive Health was used to investigate the reproductive health of female workers in petrochemical industry. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to identify the influencing factors for reproductive health of female workers in petrochemical industry. Results: Among the 7485 female workers, 1 268 (40.9%) had abnormal menstrual period, 1 437 (46.4%) had abnormal menstrual volume, 177 (28.5%) had hyperplasia of mammary glands, and 1 807 (24.6%) had gynecological inflammation. The reproductive system diseases in female workers in petrochemical industry were associated with the factors including age, marital status, education level, unhealthy living habits, abortion, overtime work, work shift, workload, video operation, occupational exposure, positive events, and negative events, and among these factors, negative events (odds ratio[OR]= 1.856) , unhealthy living habits (OR=1.542) , and positive events (OR=1.516) had greater impact on reproductive system diseases. Conclusion Many chemical substances in the occupational environment of petrochemical industry can cause damage to the reproductive system, which not only affects the health of the female workers, but also poses potential threats to the health of their offspring. Occupational exposure, unhealthy living habits, overtime work, and work shift have great influence on reproductive system diseases in female workers.
