Objective To investigate the effects of oestrogen-receptor(ER), progesterone-receptor(PR), vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and kinase insert domaincontaining receptor(KDR) in uterine bleeding induced by intrauterine device(IUD). Methods Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expressions of ER, PR, VEGF and KDR in endometrium from IUD bleeding group and normal control group, respectively. Microvessel density(MVD) was evaluated by using anti factor Ⅷ-related antigen (F8-RA) antibody to mark stromal microvessels. Results The expressions of ER, VEGF and KDR were significantly higher in IUD-induced endometrium bleeding group than those in control group(P0.05). MVD was significantly higher in IUD-induced endometrium bleeding than that in normal endometrium(P

After 28 foreign species of AM fungi were inoculated in sterilized soil, the effects of the AM mycorrhizal colonization and the medicine quality of Paris polyphylla var. yunnanensis were observed by combination of inoculation test in pot at room temperature and instrumental analysis. The results showed that, compared with control group (CK), the inoculation of foreign AM fungi in the soil influenced the spore density, mycorrhizal infection rate, and colonization intensity of AM fungi in root system of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis. The inoculation of foreign AM fungi enhanced the mycorrhiza viability of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis by increasing the activity of succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in intraradical hyphae. The content of single steroid saponin in rhizome of P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis showed variation after P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis was inoculated by different foreign species of AM fungi, which was beneficial for increasing the medicine quality; however, the kinds of steroid saponin showed no difference. In a degree, there was a selectivity of symbiosis between P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis and foreign AM fungi. And we found that the Claroideoglomus claroideum and Racocetra coralloidea were best foreign AM fungi species for cultivating P. polyphylla var. yunnanensis under field condition.

Objective To explore the reasons why patients with Keshan disesse complicated with hypertension and their interaction in Fuyu County, Heilongjiang Province. Methods Fifty-three patients with Keshan disease were investigated in January, April and July in 2007. Blood pressure was measured and the risk factors of hypertension were investigated. According to the diagnostic criteria of hypertension, patients were divided into hypertension group and non-hypertension group, and then the risk factors of hypertension, as well as the course of Keshan disease, were compared between the two groups. The risk factors include age, gender, family history of hypertension, salt intake in diet, smoking, drinking and obesity. Results The age of hypertension group[(57.83±8.89)years] was significantly higher than that of non-hypertension group [(51.53 ± 9.43)years, t = 2.3630, P < 0.05) ;while the course of Keshan disease in non-hypertension group [(31.63 ± 8.66)years] was notably longer than that in hypertension group [(25.08±11.41)years, t = 2.0224, P < 0.05] ;No statistically significant difference in gender, family history of hypertension, salt intake in diet, smoking, drinking and obesity was observed between the two groups(χ2 = 0.0072,0.1779,0.0029,0.1555,0.119,0.7679, all P > 0.05). Conclusions Age might be an important factor in patients with Keshan disease accompanied by hypertension, and the role of other risk factors of hypertension should not be overlooked;whether Keshan disease and hypertension can affect each other needs further investigation.

ObjectiveTo analyze the surveillance results at the national surveillance spots of brucellosis from 2006 to 2010,to know the epidemic status of national brucellosis,and to provide scientific evidences for evaluating of surveillance quality and formulating of surveillance strategies and measures.Methods The brucellosis surveillance data collected from the Surveillance Reports of Major Infectious Diseases and Vector-Biological Monitoring Report in China from 2006 to 2010,and the National Diseases Surveillance Information Management System were classified and analyzed using two stage clustering statistical analysis.Results According to national routine surveillance,the incidence of brucellosis increased from 1.55 per 100 000 in 2006 to 2.62 per 100 000 in 2010.Reported brucellosis cases were mainly in Inner Mongolia,Shanxi,Heilongjiang and other regions,and reported time was from March to August,which accounting for 79.87％(114 265/143 064).The brucellosis cases were mainly youth,male,farmers and herdsman.In the national surveillance spots of the brucellosis,217 648 cases received epidemic survey,of which 61 905 cases received serological test,the positive rate was 19.66％(12 169/61 905),and 10 318 new cases were found; the highest positive rate of serological test was 41.19％(2757/6694) which was found in Zhalantun of Inner Mongolia; the detection rate of pathogen culture was 2.49％(29/1165); the positive rates of serological test in cattle and sheep were 1.07％(2355/219 352) and 0.93％ (2766/296 176),respectively.The surveillance spots were classified into four grades according to cluster analysis.Conclusions The epidemic continues to rise in human surveillance spots of brucellosis.Although national surveillance spots play an important role in the surveillance of brucellosis,the quality and quantity of surveillance work of national brucellosis surveillance spots should be improved,different management measures should be taken in different surveillance spots according to classified results of the cluster analysis.This study provides some basis to improve the utilization of health resources and the level of Brucella disease prevention and control work.

Objective To explore the associations between coagulation factor Ⅶ (FⅦ)polymorphisms and its haplotype with risk of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases (ICVD) in Henan Han population. Methods Five hundred and twelve cases with ICVD as patient group and 560 healthy subjects as control were recruited in the study. The polymorphisms of R353Q, 5'F7 and IVS7 were detected by PCR-RFLP. The genotype frequency and allele gene frequency were compared between ICVD group and control group. The haplotype was analyzed by SHEsis software. Results The RQ genotype frequencies and Q allele frequencies of ICVD group were significantly lower than those of control group. The distribution of H7 allele frequencies and H6H7 genotype frequencies of FⅦ/IVS7 polymorphisms had significant difference between ICVD group and control group. Finally, the prevalence of R-P0-H6 haplotype in ICVD group(53. 3% )was higher than that in control group (47.5%, OR = 1. 219, 95% CI 1. 028-1. 446,P =0.023). Conclusions In Henan Han population, the Q allele of F Ⅶ/R353Q polymorphisms and the H7 allele of F Ⅶ/IVS7 polymorphisms may be protective genetic factors against ischemic cerebrovascular disease, and the R-P0-H6 haplotype may be a risk factor of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.

Objective:To detect the value of utilizing bpMRI in prostate biopsy in the detection of prostate cancer with PSA≤20ng/ml.Methods:The clinical data of 394 patients who underwent prostate biopsy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from November 2017 to October 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Of all the patients, 177 underwent modified systematic biopsy, named TRUS group, 217 patients accepted pre-biopsy bpMRI examination, undergoing modified systematic biopsy if Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) score < 3 or MRI-TRUS cognitive fusion targeted prostate + systematic biopsy if PI-RADS score ≥ 3, named MRI group. The median age of TRUS group was 66 (61, 74) years old, prostate specific antigen (PSA) was 9.52 (7.26, 12.30) ng / ml, and prostate volume (PV) was 36.84 (28.95, 57.72)ml. The median age of MRI group was 66 (59, 72) years old, PSA was 8.84 (6.65, 12.16) ng/ml, and PV was 39.45 (29.25, 58.69)ml. There was no difference in above parameters between the two groups. The χ 2 test was used to compare the detection rate of prostate cancer and clinically significant prostate cancer (CsPCa) between the two groups. Results:There was no significant difference in the detection rates of prostate cancer between TRUS group and MRI group [51.41% (91/177) vs. 48.39% (105/ 217), P = 0.550], but the detection rates of CsPCa were significantly different [26.55% (47/177) vs. 36.41% (79/217), P = 0.037]. In patients with PSA ≤ 10 ng / ml, there was no significant difference in the detection rates of prostate cancer between the two groups [43.62% (41/94) vs. 43.08% (56/130), P = 0.936], but there was a significant difference in the detection rates of CsPCa [17.02% (16/94) vs. 28.46% (37/130), P = 0.047]. There was no significant difference in the detection rates of prostate cancer [60.24% (50/83) and 56.17% (48/87), P= 0.504] and the detection rates of CsPCa [37.35% (31/83) vs. 48.28% (42/87), P = 0.150] between the two groups. The total detection rates of the last two needles in TRUS group and MRI group were 23.16% (41/177) and 36.63% (86/217), respectively, with significant difference ( P=0.001); the detection rates of CsPCa in the last two needles were 11.86% (26/177) and 29.03% (63/ 217), respectively, with significant difference ( P < 0.001). In MRI group, the detection rates of prostate cancer in patients with PI-RADS score <3, 3, 4, 5 were 21.21% (7/33), 25.84% (23/89), 73.24% (52/71), 95.83% (23/24), respectively; the detection rates of CsPCa were 12.12% (4/33), 17.98% (16/89), 54.93% (39/71), 83.33% (23/24), respectively. Conclusions:In patients with PSA ≤ 20 ng / ml, prostate biopsy based on bpMRI may improve the detection of CsPCa, especially in patients with PSA ≤ 10 ng/ml.
