[Objective] To evaluate the value of cardiac screening in the first trimester by using three-dimensional ultrasound with spatiotemporal image correlation (STIC) and to analyze the value of different views for cardiac assessment.[Methods] This study retrospectively reviewed the eighty-seven fetuses with congenital heart diseases which were diagnosed in our institution between January 4th 2013 and June 30th 2016.We compared the detection rate of prenatal ultrasound screening with STIC in the first trimester and the results of postnatal echocardiography or autopsy.In addition,the detection rates of the different planes,including four-chamber view (4CV),outlet of the left ventricle (OLV),outlet of the right ventricle (ORV) and three vessels-trachea view (3VT) were analyzed.[Results] Severe cardiac anomalies were identified in 62 fetuses (71.3％) and non-severe cardiac anomalies were identified in 25 fetuses (28.7％).Seventy-eight cases (89.7％,78/87) with congenital heart diseases could be detected by using three-dimensional ultrasound with STIC.The detection ratesfor 4CV,4CV+OLV,4CV+ORV,4CV+3VT,4CV+OLV+ORV and 4CV+OLV+ORV+3VT were 48.3％,64.4％,66.7％,79.3％,69.0％ and 89.7％ respectively.[Conclusions] Three-dimensional ultrasound with STIC could detect congenital heart disease in the first trinester.The four-chamber view plus outlet of the left ventricle,outlet of the right ventricle and three vessels-trachea view could increase the detection rates of congenital heart diseases.

Objecfive To investigate the prevalence of Ureaplasma urealyticum(UU)and Mycoplasma hominis(MH)infections in urogenital tract and their sensitivities to drugs in Qinhuangdao area from 2006 to 2007.Methods UU and MH were detected by Mycoplasma IST kits in urine samples from 3062 patients suspected as urogenital tract infection and the sensitivity tests for 8 antimicrobial agents were performed.Results Mycolasmas were detected in 1262 patients from 3062 patients suspected as urogenital tract infection,in which 1037 were of UU infection,41 were of MH infection and 184 were of UU+MH infection.Both strains were sensitive to josamycin,doxycycline and tetracycline,but were less sensitive to ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin.Conclusions Drug resistance is increasing for Mycoplasma and sensitivity test is important in treatment of urogenital tract infection by Mycoplasma.

Objectives To observe the effects of varied doses of L-thyroxin sodium ( L-T4) on congenital hypothyroidism ( CH) and to determine appropriate dose for early therapeutic intervention. Methods Totally, 108 cases of confirmed CH were divided into two groups (54 in each group). All the cases were administered with L-T4 at varied doses( 10. 1? - 15. 0 ?g ? kg-1? d-1 for large-dose group and 6. 0 - 10. 0 ?g ?kg-1? d-1 for small-dose group) after their parents were trained for basic knowledge of CH by specialists. Their serum levels of T3, T4 and TSH, as well as their body height, weight and head circumference, were measured during follow-up. L-T4 was maintained at doses of 1. 0 - 4. 0 ?g ? kg -1 ? d-1 when their serum levels of T3, T4 and TSH returned to normal. Results All the 108 cases had their clinical symptoms quickly improved and development and growth accelerated after L-T4 substitution. Their serum level of T3 returned to normal in all cases, that of T4 did not return to normal in six cases of large-dose group and in 16 cases of small-dose group, and that of TSH did return to normal in 22 cases of large-dose group and in 39 cases of small-dose group, respectively, after one-month treatment, with a significant difference between the two groups. Cases in large-dose group gained more weight in average than those in small-dose group when they were three months old. Conclusions Early therapeutic intervention for babies with CH with L-thyroxin sodium of 10. 1 -15. 0 ?g ? kg-1? d-1 could quickly correct abnormal function of their thyroid and could avoid abnormal development of their intelligence due to CH.

Background and purpose: Pancreatic cancer is often diagnosed at advanced stage, therefore, chemotherapy remains the cornstone of treatment for advanced pancreatic cancer. However, no standard regimen has been established as second-line therapy for advanced pancreatic cancer. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efifcacy and safety of albumin-bound paclitaxel plus S-1 for the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer patients in second-line setting after the failure of gemcitabine treatment. Methods:Clinical outcomes of 19 patients with advanced pancreatic cancer were analyzed. These patients received albumin-bound paclitaxel plus S-1 as second-line therapy after the failure of gemcitabine treatment. Albumin-bound paclitaxel was administered at a dose of 125 mg/m2 over 30 minutes on day 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle. From d1-14, all patients received oral S-1 40 mg/m2, twice daily. Results:All patients were available for evaluation. Of the 19 patients, 1 case got complete response (CR), 4 cases had partial response (PR) and 9 cases had stable disease (SD). The objective response rate (ORR) was 26.3%, the disease control rate (DCR) was 73.7%and the median progression free survival (PFS) was 5.2 months. The main toxicities include hematological toxicity, myodynia, gastrointestinal reactions, sensory neuropathy, fatigue and alopecia. Conclusion:The combination of albumin-bound paclitaxel and S-1 is effective and tolerated in the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer patients who resistant to gemcitabine.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the standard of non-invasive diagnosis of Down′s syndrome between the different PCR machines. METHODS Two kinds of PCR machines were used respectively to amplify the homologous genes-the human liver-like phosphofructokinase gene (PFKL) and the human muscle-like phosphofructokinase gene (PFKM). RESULTS The best annealing temperature of the two PCR machines were 64 ℃ and 60 ℃,and only in this reaction conditions PFKL′s and PFKM′s electrophoresis strips had the same optical density value. CONCLUSIONS This approach has proven that the conditions of amplified the PFKL and PFKM are different between the two kinds of PCR machines.

AIM:To observe the effects of hawthorn leaf polymeric procyanidins ( PPC) on calcium mobiliza-tion of vascular endothelial cells , and to study the underlying mechanism .METHODS: Free calcium in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) was labeled with Fura-2.HUVECs were treated with ATP, a positive control drug, and PPC at concentrations of 12.5, 25 and 50 mg/L..The intracellular calcium concentrations were measured with a living cell microscope for 30 min.RESULTS:PPC concentration-dependently increased the intracellular calcium concen-tration of HUVECs .The intracellular calcium concentrations in 25 and 50 mg/L PPC groups were significantly higher than that in normal group (P<0.01).The dynamic manner of calcium concentration elevations elicited by PPC was a slow in -crease which happened after a latency time of several minutes , lasted for several minutes , and reached a plateau finally . This manner was quite different from that elicited by ATP , a typical SOC operator , hinting different mechanisms between them .Inhibiting the intracellular calcium release did not influence the effects of PPC;however , deleting extracellular calci-um, inhibiting the reverse mode of Na +-Ca2+exchange, or deleting extracellular sodium , restrained or even abolished the effects of PPC.CONCLUSION:PPC elicits calcium mobilization in vascular endothelial cells , which may be one of the mechanisms of the vascular modulatory activity of hawthorn procyanidins .This effect may be achieved through inducing the influx of sodium and then activating the reverse mode of Na +-Ca2+exchange.

Objective To observe the effects of hawthorn leaf procyanidins (HLP) on over expressions of ICAM-1 and E-selectin in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) induced by TNF-α,and clarify the mechanism of HLP's anti-inflammation effect. Methods HUVEC were cultured in vitro. MTT assay was used to detect cell viabilities. The expressions of ICAM-1 and E-selectin in HUVEC were detected by flowcytometry. Results Up to 200 mg/L, HLP showed no significant decrease in cell viabilities; the expression levels of ICAM-1 and E-selectin in the model group significantly increased, compared with that in the normal group; 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 mg/L HLP inhibited the expression elevations of ICAM-1 and E-selectin in concentration-dependent manner; and there were statistical significances in 40, 50 mg/L HLP groups, compared with the model group. Conclusion HLP can inhibit the over expressions of ICAM-1 and E-selectin of vascular endothelial cells induced by TNF-α, which possibly underlies HLP's anti-inflammation effect.

Objective To examine the impact of diabetic foot patients′ negative emotion on the caregiver′quality of life. Methods Totally 100 pairs of diabetic foot patients and their caregivers were investigated using convenience sampling method. Results The incidence of anxiety, depression of hospitalized patients with diabetic foot was 41.5% (23/200), 44.0% (88/200) respectively. Pearson correlation analysis showed that anxiety score were negatively correlated with caregivers′ quality of life except for mental health dimension, physical pain dimension and the total score of physical health, mental health and the MOS item Short from Health Survey (SF-36) (r=-0.471--0.117, P<0.05), and depression score were negatively correlated with caregivers′ quality of life except for physical pain dimension and the total score of physical health, mental health and SF-36(r=-0.519--0.220, P<0.05). Multiple regression analysis indicated that caregivers educational level, provided support, social support , relationship with patients, self-evaluation of health, live together time with patient, patient care burden, caregivers gender, depression score, patient age, diabetic foot Wagner grade were the influence factors of the caregiver′ quality of life. Conclusions Diabetic foot patients′ negative emotion has an important impact on caregiver′quality of life, we can improve the quality of life of patients and their caregivers by reducing the negative mood of patients with diabetic foot.

A new fluorescent method was developed based on the ulifloxacin-europium（Ⅲ）-sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate system for the determination of ulifloxacin,the active metabolite of prulifloxacin.Sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate formed a ternary complex with ulifloxacin-europium（Ⅲ）and significantly enhanced the characteristic fluorescence of europium（Ⅲ）.The enhanced fluorescence intensity showed a good linear relationship with the concentration of ulifloxacin in the range of 5.0×10^-8-2.0×10^-6M with a detection limit of 2.0×10^-10 M（3σ）.This method is rapid and sensitive,and has been successfully applied to the determination of ulifloxacin in human urine and serum samples.
