Objective To study the effects of recombinant human growth hormone(rhGH) on the treatment for valve replacement postoperative in rheumatic heart disease associated cardiac eaehex.Methods Fortytwo patients with rheumatic heart disease associated cardiac eachexia were divided into two groups.Group one(n=20,rhGH group) received standard enteral nutrition (15 kal·kg-1 · d-1)with rhGH 10U injection subeutaneously from postoperation day 7 to day 14 and group two(n = 22,eontrol group) received standard enteral nutrition (15 kal·kg-1· d-1) for the same period.Haemoglobin, serum total protein, serum albumin, blood glucose, handgrip exercise and triceps skin_fold thickness were determined.Meehanieal ventilation, hypostatie pneumonia incidence rate, and length of stay were observed.Results The levels of serum total protein, serum albumin and blood glucose eoneentration in the rhGH group at the 14th day were inereased significantly compared to that in the control group(P <0.01).Haemoglobin, triceps skinfold thiekness and handgrip exercise in rhGH group were significantly different from those in the control group(P <0.05).Postoperative meehanieal ventilation time, intensive care unit time, hospital stay time were signifieantly shorter than those in the eontrol group (P < 0.05), and hypostatie pneumonia was significantly lower than that in the eontroi group(P < 0.01).Conclusions The rhGH can obviously improve anabolie effects of patients with rheumatic heart disease associated cardiac eachexia whieh can reduce hypostatie pneumonia and shorten postoperative hospital stay time.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the reproducibility of Gleason scores for prostate cancer.

METHODSBased on the revised Gleason Scoring System of the International Society of Urological Pathology ( ISUP) , we analyzed the reproducibility and difference of Gleason scores in 49 cases of prostate cancer using the methods of combination and grouping.

RESULTSThe total reproducibility of Gleason scores among 15 pathologists was good (κ = 0.642), 62.2% by the combination method, the highest in Gleason 5 + 5 (81.2%) and 5 +4 (73.3%), then in Gleason 4 + 4 (67.5%), 3 + 3 (64.0%), 4 +3 (61.3%), and 3 + 4 (44.0%), and the lowest in Gleason 4 + 5 (38.9%) and 3 + 5 (33.3%). The total reproducibility of Gleason scores by the grouping method was 71.4%, the highest in Gleason 9-10 (84.9%) , then in Gleason 7 (76.7%) and 6 (64.0%), and the lowest in Gleason 8 (60.7%).

CONCLUSIONThe reproducibility of Gleason scores remains to be further improved in prostate cancer, mainly concerning the understanding of Gleason 3 and 4 carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and influence factors of hysteroscopic guiding endometrial resection on dysfunctional uterine bleeding.Methods One hundred and eighty women with dysfunctional uterine bleeding were selected as our subjects in Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Qinhuangdao from Jan.2009 to Jan.2011.One hundred and fifty which meet with operation indications underwent hysteroscopic guiding endometrial resection.Operation periods,blood loss,adverse effects rate were recorded.Serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH),luteinizing hormone (LH),estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P) hormone levels were detected at preoperative and postoperative.The efficacy was recorded at 6 and 12 months after the procedure.Results The average operation time and amount of bleeding were (31.2 ± 11.0)min and (32.3 ± 10.5) ml,and no blood transfusion performed during the operation.All cases got the succeed operation.There were no significant difference in terms of serum FSH,LH,E2 and P concentrations before and after treatment(P ＞0.05).At 6 months after treatment,improvement rate was 64.0％ (96/150),and effective rate was 32.0％ (48/150).The total effective rate was 96.0％ (144/150).At 12 months after treatment,the improvement rate was 58.0％ (87/150),effective rate was 36.0％ (54/150).The total effective rate was 94.0％(141/150).There was significant different in terms of total effective rate between 6 months and 12 months after treatment(x2 =113.6,P ＞ 0.05).Postoperative complications occurred in 2 cases,including 1 cases of abdominal pain,and 1 cases of dysmenorrhea.Uterine cavity depth,age and disease duration were the main factors affect the clinical efficacy.(OR(95 ％ CI):-1.14 (-1.17 to-1.07),1.60 (1.31 to 2.08),-1.02(-1.14 to-1.08),P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Treatment of hysteroscopic guiding endometrial resection on dysfunctional uterine bleeding is proved to be efficacy due to the less adverse reaction.

Objective To study the effect of in utero exposure of TCDD on synthesis of EGF and EGFR in submandibular gland of rat offspring.

Pituitary adenoma, a benign intracranial tumor, is the third most common brain tumor, second only to glioma and me-ningioma. Pituitary adenoma has been defined as a benign tumor, but some pituitary adenomas can invade the surrounding tissue. This tumor is difficult to resect and can easily recur after surgery. RWD-containing sumoylation enhancer (RSUME) can stabilize the activity of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α and inhibitor kappaB by the small ubiquitin-related modifiers. This phenomenon indicates the impor-tance of RSUME in pituitary adenoma because it promotes the invasiveness of the tumor. However, the correlation between RSUME and the invasion of pituitary adenoma remains unclear. In this study, the roles of RSUME on HIF-1α/VEGF signaling pathway and IκB/NF-κB compomers in the invasiveness of pituitary adenoma were reviewed.

Objective To explore the expansion and differentiation of bone marrow endothelial progenitor cells in vitro. Methods Rabbit bone marrow mononuclear cells were isolated by gradient density centrifugation.Attached cells were cultured and in endothelial cell growth supplement(ECGS) from bovine pituitary.Cell multiplication was observed,and their biological characteristics were detected. Results The number of attached cells increased 5～8 fold with each expanded.Cobblestone like structure was observed when the cells lined in single layer.Expanded cells expressed von Willebrand factor(vWF) and could ingest Dil acLDL. ConclusionEndothelial progenitor cells,which exist within adult bone marrow,have the potential to be expanded and differentiated when stimulated by ECGS in vitro.
