Objective To investigate the clinical manifestation, diagnosis, therapies and medical economics of cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP). Methods From Jan. 2005 to Dec. 2008, 96 patients with CSP treated in Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University were studied retrospectively. Those cases were divided into 3 groups. Thirty-three patients were treated with methotrexate (MTX) 50 mg/m2 intravenously guttae in group A. Among that 18 cases were treated with MTX, after 5 - 10 days they underwent dilation and curettage of uterus; 15 cases were given by dilation and curettage first if the level of serum human chorionic gonadotrophin-β(β-hCG) descent less than 30% in every 48 hours for 3 times after curettage, then MTX (50 mg/m2) intravenously guttae. Sixty patients were treated with MTX 100 mg bilateral uterine artery injection and embolization in group B. After 2 days, they underwent curettage.Group C: 3 patients were treated with laparotomy lesion excision. The following clinical parameters were compared, including blood loss( M), lesion diameter (-x±s), blood β-hCG level (M)before treatment, the number of cases with myometrial thickness anterior to the CSP ≤3 mm, the resistant index (RI) ≤0. 5,expense(-x ± s), hospital days(-x ±s) in those 3 groups. The correlation of blood loss with lesion diameter and blood β-hCG level was studied. Results ( 1 ) Clinical manifestation: bleeding loss were 20 ml in MTX +curettage of group A, 10 ml in curettage + MTX of group A, 12 ml in group B and 200 ml in group C. The volume of bleeding loss in group C was significantly higher than those in group A or group B ( P < 0. 01 ).The lesion diameter were ( 23 ± 15 ) mm in curettage + MTX of group A and ( 30 ± 14 ) mm of group B ,which were higher than ( 16 ± 8 ) mm of MTX + curettage of group A (P < 0. 01 ). The lesion diameter of (52 ± 7 )mm in group C were significantly bigger than those in the other groups ( P < 0. 01 ). The level of blood β-hCG levels were 21 592 U/L in MTX + curettage of group A, 979 U/L in curettage + MTX of group A,which reach statistical difference ( P <0. 05). The level of blood β-hCG levels were 11 312 U/L in group B and 101 U/L in group C. Among 28 cases with Rl≤0. 5,there was 8 cases in group A (24% ,8/33),18 cases in group B ( 30%, 18/60) and 2 cases in group C (2/3). Among 23 cases with myometrial thickness anterior to the CSP ≤ 3 mm, there was 21 cases in group B (35%, 21/60 ), which were significantly higher than 2 in group A (6%, 2/33 ) and none in group C ( P < 0. 05 ). The expense were ( 5578 ± 3679) yuan in MTX + curettage of group A and (5346 ± 2765 ) yuan in curettage + MTX of group,which did not reach statistical difference (P>0. 05). The expense were (7860 ±2104) yuan in group B,which were significantly higher than those in group A and (5004 ± 421 ) yuan in group C (P < 0. 05 ). The hospital days were ( 15 ±8) days and ( 19 ± 14) days of group A, ( 16 ± 10) days in group B and ( 17 ±8)days in group C, there was no significant difference among those treatments ( P > 0. 05 ). (2) Correlatin:there was positive correlation between bleeding loss and lesion diameter( r = 0. 31, P < 0. 05 ) or blood β-hCG level ( r = 0. 35, P < 0. 05). Conclusions MTX intravenously guttae, MTX uterine artery injection and embolization, and laparotomy lesion excision were all properly used in treatment of CSP. MTX uterine artery injection and embolization was recommended for those with big lesion, high β-hCG level, less myometrial thickness anterior to the CSP or plentiful blood supply of the lesion but the expense might be high.

AIM: To investigate the behaviour of 3T3 fibroblast and macrophage co-culture on blood fibrin clot or adipose tissue with recombinant basic fibroblast growth factor (rhbFGF). METHODS: MTT method, inverted contrast microscopy, Giemsa staining as well as scanning electron microscope were used in the present study. RESULTS: The effect of rhbFGF on co-culture of 3T3 fibroblast and mouse macrophage on blood fibrin clot in low-serum DMEM with rhbFGF were monitored, and 3T3 fibroblast and macrophage growed well on the blood fibrin blot in low-serum DMEM with rhbFGF. CONCLUSION: The blood fibrin clot, with its low immunogenicity, could be used as a bionic support for three-dimensional tissue culture, and also a physiological carrier to distribute the growth factor rhbFGF for the cells.

Objective To reduce the screening positive rate (SPR) and improve clinical efficiency of maternal serum screening for Down's syndrome.Methods Nine thousand and thirty-three cases of second trimester maternal serum screening for Down's syndrome were included from Apr.2013 to Apr.2014 in the present study.The screening results,all basic data and equation curves were analyzed retrospectively.Based on the data from the authors' laboratory,the important adjustment parameters were simulated.Combined with postnatal follow-up results,the quality and clinical performance of second trimester serum screening for Down's syndrome were evaluated.Results The SPR of second trimester serum screening for Down's syndrome was 6.69%(604/9033),the detection rate (DR) was 75%(3/4),and FPR was 6.65%(601/9033).The median multiple of median (MOM) of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) was low and SPR was high,and MOM of free human chorionic gonadotropin β subunit (free hCGβ) were high and SPR was high,while MOM of unconjugated estriol (uE3) were a little bit low,and SPR was slightly high.Considering these three factors,it is believed that the screening positive rate is high.By the simulation adjustments of MOM value equations (AFP and free hCGβ) and weight correction equation,the SPR reduced to 4.11%(371/9033) after recalculating the risk,FPR declined to 4.07%(368/9033),and no more Down's syndrome fetus were missed compared with postnatal follow-up results.Conclusion Based on a localized setting depending on the local laboratory data,we suggest that the MOM value distributions(AFP,free hCGβ and uE3) and maternal weight should be regularly adjusted since it is a useful way to reduce the false-positive rate and improve clinical efficiency of maternal serum screening for Down's syndrome.

Objective To investigate the phenotypes and the HIV-1-specific T cell responses of KIR3DL1 positive CD8 cells in patients with early HIV-1 infection. Methods Fifty-six HIV-1 antibody negative individuals and thirty-two patients with early HIV-1 infection were enrolled in the study. Fluores-cence-activated cell sorting (FACS) was performed to detect the phenotypes of KIR3DL1 receptor expressed on the surface of CD8 cells. The levels of IFN-γwere measured by intracellular cytokine staining assay after the PBMCs were stimulated with an HIV-1 Gag peptide pool. Results The percentages of KIR3DL1+CD8 T cells in HIV-1 negative individuals and patients with early HIV-1 infection were 1. 45% (0. 12%-8. 4%) and 0. 82% (0. 14%-6. 14%), respectively, and there was no significant difference between them. The percentages of KIR3DL1+CD8 Temra cells in HIV-1 negative individuals and patients with early HIV-1 infec-tion were (4. 55±3. 84)% and (6. 71±8. 50)%, respectively, which were significantly higher than the per-centages of KIR3DL1+CD8 Tem cells, which were (0. 50±0. 59)% and (1. 18±1. 39)%, respectively (all P<0. 01). Moreover, the percentages of KIR3DL1+CD8 Tem cells in patients with early HIV-1 infection were higher than those in HIV-1 negative individuals (P=0. 001 2). The percentage of KIR3DL1+CD8 Temra cells was positively correlated with the HIV-1 viral load in patients with early HIV-1 infection ( rs=0. 576,P=0. 000 9). The percentages of KIR3DL1+CD8 Temra cells in HIV-1 patients, whose viral loads were larger than 4. 0log, were much higher than those in HIV-1 patients with viral loads less than 4. 0 log (P=0. 002). Additionally, the levels of IFN-γsecreted by KIR3DL1 positive CD8 cells were much lesser than those secreted by KIR3DL1 negative CD8 cells (P<0. 000 1). Conclusion The receptor of KIR3DL1 was mainly expressed on CD8 Temra cells in both HIV-1 negative subjects and patients with early HIV-1 infec-tion. High HIV-1 viremia was associated with the high percentage of KIR3DL1+CD8 Temra cells. The KIR3DL1 positive CD8 cells induced lower HIV-1-specific T cell responses.
