Objective To explore the value of placental alpha-microglobulin-1 in vagina liquid to diagnose premature rupture of membranes. Methods A prospective observational study to initial evaluation included both the standard clinical evaluation for rupture of membranes and placental alpha-microglobulin-1 immunoassay. Rupture of membranes was diagnosed if fluid was seen leaking from the cervical os or if two of the following three conditions were present: pooling of fluid, positive nitrazine test, or feming. Rupture of membranes was diagnosed definitively on review of the medical records after delivery. Results Placental alpha-microglobulin-1 immunoassay confirmed rupture of membranes at initial presentation with a sensitivity of 100% (89/89), specificity of 91% (10/11), positive predictive value of 99% (89/90), and negative predictive value of 100% (10/10),false positive rate of 9% (1/11). Placental alpha-nricroglobulin-1 immunoassay was better than the conventional clinical assessment in confirming the diagnosis of rupture ofmembranes (P<0.01). Conclusion Measurement of placental alpha-microglobulin-1 in cervicovaginal secretions is superior to conventional clinical assessment in the diagnosis of rupture of membranes.

Objective To explore the structure of ribosomal protein S7 ( RPS7) gene of giant panda ( Ailuropoda melanoleuca) and investigate its homologies with other already reported sequences,including Homo sapiens,Mus musculus,Rattus norvegicus and Bos taurus. Methods The cDNA of RPS7 was cloned from the giant panda by RT-PCR. The sequence data were analyzed by GenScan software. Blast 2. 1 was used to study the homology of the obtained RPS7 sequence with the gene sequences of other species; Open reading frame ( ORF) of the DNA sequence was searched using ORF finder software; Protein structure of the RPS7 sequence cloned was deduced using Predict Protein software. Results The full length of the sequence fragment was 589 bp containing an ORF of 585 bp. The deduced protein sequence showed that the protein was composed of 194 ami- no acids and its estimated molecular weight was 22. 126 85 ?103 with a pI of 10. 09. There were 7 different pat- terns of functional sites: one N-glycosylation site; two cAMP and cGMP-dependent kinase phosphorylation sites; four casein kinase C phosphorylation sites; one casein kinase Ⅱ phosphorylation site; two N-myristoylation sites; two amidation sites and one ribosomal protein S7e signature site in the RPS7 protein. Further analysis indicated that the sequence of RPS7 and the protein encoded were highly homologous to some mammals reported.Conclusion The complete coding sequence of RPS7 gene has been cloned through RT-PCR successfully, which is the first report on the RPS7 gene from the giant panda.

Background and purpose:Selenium is one of the essential trace elements for human activities, and plays an incomparable role in maintaining human health. It was reported that selenium compound 1,4-bis[2-(benzylse-lanyl)ethoxy] (BSEA) anthracene has antiseptic and antiphlogistic effects. However, the mechanisms underlying anti-cancer effects of BSEA are rarely reported. BSEA-induced apoptosis in human laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cells and its mechanisms were studied.Methods:Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was used to determine inhibition ratio of Hep-2 cells 24 hours after Hep-2 cells were treated with different concentrations of BSEA. Fluorescence microscope was used to observe the morphology change of apoptosis in Hep-2 cells. The apoptosis was detected by Annexin Ⅴ-FITC. Mi-tochondrial membrane potential was assayed by JC-1. Microplate reader detected the activity of caspase-3 and caspase-8. The mRNA and protein levels of Bax and XIAP were measured by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTFQ-PCR) and Western blot.Results:The results showed that BSEA caused a dose-dependent inhibition of the growth of human laryngeal carcinoma cell line Hep-2in vitro, andIC50 was 35.74μmol/L. The apoptotic bodies were distinctly observed at a concentration of 80μmol/L of BSEA by AO fluorescence staining. This study found that the eversion of phosphatidyl serine intensified, and mitochondrial membrane potential also began to decline. The activity of caspase-3 appeared the tendency of dependence on dosage, while the activity of caspase-8 did not change significantly. The mRNA and protein expression level of Bax increased, whereas the mRNA and protein expression level of XIAP de-creased.Conclusion:Therefore, BSEA could obviously inhibit human laryngeal carcinoma Hep-2 cells proliferation and induce apoptosis via the mitochondrial pathway.

Objective:Nerve fibres distribution in the functional layer of endometrium of women with endometdosis was investigated.Methods:Histological sections of endometrial tissue were prepared from endometrialcurettings and hysterectomies performed on women with endometnosis(n=25)and without endometriosis(n=40).Immunohistochemistry was used to detect nerve fibres by highly specific polyclonal rabbit antibody PGP 9.5.The assessment of nerve fibre density was performed bv Image Pro Plus Discovery.Results:Nerve fibres were identified throughout the functional layers of the endometrium in all endometriosis patients,but not found in the functional layer of the endometrium in women without endometriosis(P<0.01).Conclusions:Nerve fibres detectad in the functional layer in all women with endometriosis may have important implications for understanding the generation of pain in these patients.

Background and purpose: The Writ cell-signaling pathway is the key cellular developmental pathway. Dysregulation of this pathway has been implicated in the initiation and progression of cancer. Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is an important tumor suppressor gene of the Writ signaling pathway. The methylation of APC promoter and the accompanying loss of the APC transcript have been shown to occur in a significant proportion of cancers. However, there are few reports on the relationship between cervical cancer and methylation of APC. This study was aimed to investigate the promoter methylation status of the APC genes in cervical cancer and its correlation between clinicopathologic characteristics and the infection of high-risk HPV DNA. Methods: Promoter methylation was evaluated using a MSP (methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction) in 95 cervical cancer tissue specimens and 20 normal controls. The relationship between clinicopathologic parameters and the methylation status was evaluated. Results: The frequencies of promoter methylation of APC in cervical cancer were 56.8%. Cervical cancer had significant higher methylation frequencies than that of the controls (10%, P<0.01). The result showed that the methylation analysis of APC promoter and high-risk HPV DNA testing had good consistency (Kappa=0.348, P<0.001). The promoter methylation of APC was significantly higher in adenocarcinoma (AC) than in squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) (74.1% vs 50.0%, respectively, P<0.05). The larger tumor size, positive lymph node metastasis and positive HPV DNA exhibited an increased promoter methylation frequency for APC (P<0.05). There were no significant associations between the methylation frequencies for APC gene to age, invasion depth, FIGO stage and histological grade. Conclusion: Our results suggested that the promoter methyiation of APC and high-risk HPV DNA testing had good consistency. APC gene promoter methylation was a frequent epigenetic event in cervical carcinoma and had a significant correlation with cancer pathological types.

Objective To systematically evaluate the effects of prone position ventilation on newborn with respiratory distress syndrome.Methods We searched databases including PubMed,EMBASE,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,CBM,CNKI,Wanfang and VIP.We included all randomized controlled trials and randomized crossover trials of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.Studies were selected according to inclusion and exclusion criteria,extracting data and assessing quality.Then RevMan 5.3 software was used to analyze the data.Results Ten studies included seven randomized controlled trials and three randomized crossover trials,and 500 patients were included.The results of meta-analysis showed that in prone position ventilation group SaO2[MD=2.41,95％CI(0.87,3.95),P=0.002],PaO2[MD=5.20,95％CI(3.04,7.36),P＜0.001],Pa2//FiO2[MD=24.40,95％CI(8.35,40.44),P=0.003],the risk of pneumothorax [RR =0.10,95％ CI (0.01,0.76),P=0.03] and intracranial hemorrhage [RR =0.41,95％ CI (0.20,0.83),P=0.01]and duration of mechanical ventilation [MD=-23.22,95％CI(-38.30,-8.14),P=0.003] compared with supine positiongroup had significantly statistical difference;however there was no significant difference in ventilator-associated pneumonia[RR=0.72,95％CI(0.48,1.09),P=0.12] between two groups.Conclusion Prone position ventilation is effective to improve SaO2,PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2,shorten duration of mechanical ventilation and reduce the risk of pneumothorax and intracranial hemorrhage in newborn with respiratory distress syndrome.While it could not effectively reduce incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia.Due to the limitations of the quality of studies included,multi-centered randomized controlled trials with large sample size are needed in the future to evaluate the effects of prone position ventilation on neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.

Objective To investigate the effect of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) on pulmonary vascular permeability in the early stage of septic shock.Methods Fifty-one patients of septic shock admitted in intensive care unit of the First Affiliated Hopsital of Medical College,Zhejiang University between June 2010 and December 2011 were randomized into two groups by simple random method.Routine treatment was carried out to patients in group A,and routine treatment plus CVVH to patients in group B in the first 72 hours.Repeated respiratory mechanic hemodynamic measurements were done at baseline (Tb) before treatment,at 48 hours (T48) and 72 hours (T72) after the treatment.Pulmonary compliance (Cst),platform pressure (Pplat),oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2),extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) and E-selectin determined at each time point were recorded in two groups.Results (1) Pplat were decreased significantly after treatment in two groups,and the Pplat in group B were all lower than those in group A at T48 and T72 (t =2.215,P ＜ 0.05 ; t =4.266,P ＜ 0.01).Cst were elevated after treatment in two groups,and Cst in group B were all higher than those in group A at T48 and T72 (t =2.516,P ＜0.05 ; t =3.052,P ＜ 0.01).(2) Compared to before treatment,PaO2/FiO2 increased significantly after treatment in two groups,and PaO2/FiO2 in group B were all higher than those in group A at T48 and T72 (t =2.732,P ＜0.01 ; t =3.511,P ＜0.01).(3) EVLWI were decreased significantly after treatment in two groups,and the EVLWI in group B were all lower than those in group A at T48 and T72 (t =2.597,P ＜0.05; t =2.125,P ＜ 0.05).ITBVI,CI,SVRI and MAP did not change over time in two groups compared with those at Tb (all P ＞ 0.05).(4) E-selectin were decreased significantly after treatment in two groups,and the E-selectin in group B were all lower than those in group A at T48 and T72 (t =2.154,P ＜0.05 ; t =3.581,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion CVVH in early stage of septic shock can improve pulmonary vascular permeability and oxygenation,increase Cst,and decline EVLWI,with neither increased hemodynamics.
