Objective To study the protective effect of leuprorelin particle on ovarian reserve function applied before the laparoscopic cystectomy of ovarian endometriosis.Methods 106 patients with endometriosis treated from January 2015 to December 2015 in our hospital were selected.The subjects were divided into two groups according to the random number table, 53 cases of each group.The control group adopted the laparoscopic surgery;the observation group took the leuprorelin particle before the laparoscopic surgery.The operation condition, ovarian hormone and function were observed. Results The operation time and bleeding amount in observation group was better than control group ( P <0.05 ) .After surgery, the exhaust time between two groups had no significantly different.After surgery, the level of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in observation group was lower than control group; the level of estradiol (E2) in observation group was higher than control group (P <0.05); the level of luteinizing hormone (LH) between two groups had no significantly different.After surgery, the ovarian volume and antral follicle count ( AFC) in observation group was better than control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Before the laparoscopic cystectomy of ovarian endometriosis, the leuprorelin particle protects the ovarian function and morphology and has less impact in the level of hormone.

To observe the progess of pharmacological and clinical researches on Xiangsha-Liujunzi decoction by literature reviews recently. Pharmacological study found that the Xiangsha-Liujunzi decoction can protect the gastric mucosa, regulate gastrointestinal endocrine function, promote apoptosis of hyperplasia epithelial cell lying the gastric mucosa, and promote antidepressant effect. Thus, Xiangsha-Liujunzi decoction could be used for gastrointestinal diseases and tumor postoperative gastrointestinal dysfunction caused by radiation and chemotherapy.

Objective To investigate effect of levocarnitine on maintainance hemodialysis in patients with hypotension.Methods 64 cases with continuous hemodialysis hypotension were randomly divided into control group and treatment group, 32 cases in each group.Patients in the control group were treated with erythropoietin treatment after regular hemodialysis, and the treatment group based on the control group with levocarnitine.Blood pressure, hemoglobin, urea clearance rate, hypotension and changes of C-reactive protein (CRP), arteriovenous fistula occlusion and cardiovascular events incidence were compared after the treatment.Results Compared with before treatment, the incidence of two groups of blood pressure and hemoglobin levels were significantly increased ( P <0.05 ) and CRP levels decreased ( P <0.05 ) , hypotension, arteriovenous fistula occlusion and cardiovascular events rate were decreased (P<0.05); compared with the control group, systolic blood pressure and minimum systolic blood pressure and hemoglobin levels of treatment group were higher (P<0.05) and CRP levels were lower (P<0.05), the incidence of hypotension, arteriovenous fistula occlusion and cardiovascular events were lower (P<0.05), the clinical curative effect was higher (P<0.05).Conclusion Levocarnitine can effectively reduce the occurrence of hypotension in hemodialysis patients continuously, with good clinical efficacy and safety.

Gliomas harbor a small population of cells termed glioma stem-like cells (GSC),which have the ability to undergo self-renewal and initiate tumorigenesis.GSCs are resistant to a wide variety of chemotherapeutic agents and possess a remarkable ability to recover from cytotoxic therapy.Furthermore,GSCs play a crucial role in RT failure,as tumors surviving RT are enriched in GSCs.Therefore,an alternative strategy involving selective targeting of this functionally distinct chemo-and radiation resistant small group of GSCs rather than the bulk of the tumor may be more successful in treating this deadly disease.GSC exhibit various alterations to signaling pathway activity,which are associated with self-renewal and neoplastic proliferation.These altered pathways may represent possible targets for GSC.

Purpose: To observe the therapeutic effect of acupuncture treatment for diabetes. Method:Based upon proper diet, 100 cases of patients with diabetes were treated with Pishu (BL 20), Shenshu (BL 23), Feishu (BL 13), Weiwanxiashu (Extra), Zusanli (ST 36), Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Hegu (LI 4), and Xuehai (SP 10) by electric acupuncture, with acupoints added or deducted upon syndrome differentiation.Results: Fasting blood sugar decreased in the patients after the treatments, with a significant difference (P＜0.05) in comparison with before treatment. And the patients with obvious symptoms decreased from 85% before the treatment to 4% after the treatment. Conclusions: Acupuncture treatment can reduce fasting blood sugar in the patients with diabetes and is also remarkably effective in improving the clinical symptoms.

Purpose: To observe the therapeutic effect of Tuina plus meridian therapeutic apparatus on scapulohumeral periarthritis. Methods: Thirty-five cases of scapulohumeral periarthritis were treated by Tuina plus Japan-made SSP meridian therapeutic apparatus in the observation group, and 30 cases were treated by single meridian therapeutic apparatus in the control group. Results: Certain therapeutic effects had been achieved in the treatment of scapulohumeral periarthritis in the two groups. But, there is an obvious difference (P＜0.01) in the curative rate between the observation group and control group,and the curative rated was remarkably higher in the observation group than in the control group.Conclusion: Tuina plus meridian therapeutic apparatus is an effective method for scapulohumeral periarthritis.

Objective To study the safety and effect of the umbilical cord blood(UCB)-derived mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs)on apoptosis of human cardiomyocytes(HCM). MethodsUCB was collected at the time of delivery with informed consent obtained from 10donors.The UCB-derived MSCs were treated with 5-azaserube(5-AZA)and were further induced to differentiate into cardiomyocytes.Telomerase activity,G-banding patterns of chromosomal karyotypes,tumor formation in nude mice,RT-PCR,and the effect of inhibiting apoptosis of HCM were investigated. ResultsMSCs derived from UCB were differentiated into cardiomyocytes in vitro,which possessed telomerase activity after 5-AZA induction,and no abnormal chromosomal karyotypes were observed.Expression of p53,cyclin A,cdk2,β-actin,C-fos,h-TERT and c-myc were similar in MSCs before and after 5-AZA treatment.There was no tumor formation in nude mice after injection of UCB-derived MSCs.UCB-derived MSCs significantly inhibited apoptosis of HCM. ConclusionUCB-derived MSCs are a valuable,safe and effective source of cell-transplantation treatment.

Insulin-like growth factor receptor type 1 (IGF-1 R) is the receptor cascade effect molecules of IGF signaling pathways in the hypothalamus-pituitary-growth hormone axis.In recent years,IGF-1R gene mutation of short stature case reports increased year by year,now the progress of IGF-1R gene defects in short stature for clinicians was summarized.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the correlation of serum resistin and adiponectJn Ievels with bone mineral density(BMD)in 232 healthy male volunteers in Changsha area.METHODS:A totaI of 232 healthy Chinese men of Han population were selected randomly from Changsha area.All subjects gave their informed consent to participate in this study.Subjects were excluded from the study if they had conditions or received treatment that affecting bone metabolism.Serum adiponectin and resistin levels were determined by ELISA.BMD was measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry in total body,lumbar spine,and total hip.Body fat mass and lean body mass were measured by the whole body scanning.The correlation of serum adiponectin and resistin levels with fat mass and BMD at various sites were analyzed;the predictors of BMD at various sites was assayed using multiple linear stepwise regression analysis.RESULTS:Adiponectin was negatively correlated with fat mass(r=-0.216.P＜0.05),while resistin had no correlation with fat mass.The correlation disappeared after adjustment for age and fat mass(r=-0.006,P＞0.05).The significant negative correlations between adiponectin and BMD were found,and remained significant after adjustment for age and fat mass.There was no correlation between resistin and BMD at various sites.In the multiple linear stepwise regression analysis.adiponectin was an independent predictor of BMD in men.CONCLUSION:Resistin js not correlated with fat mass and BMD at various sites.Adiponectin is correlated with fat mass,and has a negative correlation with BMD at various sites,it is an independent predictor of BMD in Chinese men.
