The effects of antibacterials are mainly focus on inhibiting the proliferation of the bacteriums or killing them directly in various ways. Consequently, antibacterials were mainly used in the therapy of infectious diseases. However, besides the effect of anti bacterials, some antibacterials have other effects as well, such as the effects of antitumor, immunomodulation and antivirus etc. So it is very important to understand the effects and their mechanisms of antibacterials roundly so as to apply them more rationally.

ObjectiveUsing large sample clinical study to reevaluate the safety and efficacy of recombinant human growth hormone(ANSOMONE) in treating pediatric growth hormone deficiency(GHD).Methods1012 cases were administered with ANSOMONE at a dose of 0.1 IU · kg-1 · d -1 in bedtime for 6 months.The alteration of mean height,growth rate,height standard deviation scores,bone age,and anti-GH antibody and occurrence of adverse effects were observed.ResultsThe growth rate was promoted from ( 2.50 ± 0.85 ) cm/year to ( 13.44 ± 4.27 ) cm/year,the net growth rate was( 10.94 ±3.69)cm/year.There was significant difference between the pre-treatment and post-treatment patients ( P ＜ 0.01 ).The post-treatment anti-GH antibody positive rate was 13.34％,which had no obvious effect on the efficacy.Few patients exert transient inflammation reactions,which disappeared with any treatment.ConclusionANSOMONE had significant efficacy,and could promote the height increase obviously.It had good safety without any obvious side effect and early-maturing effect.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the factors influencing the pregnancy outcomes of artificial insemination with donor sperm (AID), improve the pregnancy rate, and evaluate the safety of the offspring.

METHODSWe retrospectively analyzed 7,761 cycles of AID for 5,109 infertile couples performed between July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2013 in the Center of Reproductive Medicine of Shenyang No 204 Hospital, the outcomes of pregnancy, and the incidence of birth defects.

RESULTSTotally, 2 252 clinical pregnancies were achieved by AID, in which the pregnancy rate per cycle was 29. 02% and the cumulative pregnancy rate was 44. 08%. The clinical pregnancy rate was remarkably higher in the females of ≤ 35 years than in those of > 35 years old (30.31% vs 20.18%, P < 0.01), in the women with < 5-year infertility than in those with > 5-year infertility (30.83% vs 28.16%, P < 0.01), and in the patients of the ovarian stimulation group than in those of the natural cycle group (33.22% vs 28.68%, P < 0.01) The clinical pregnancy rate was the highest in the first treatment cycle (29.87%), with statistically significant difference from the fourth cycle (23.61%) (P < 0.05), but not between the other cycles (P > 0.05). There were 28 cases of birth defects in the offspring (1.40%), including 6 cases (21.43%) involving the cardiovascular system, 4 (14.29%) involving the musculoskeletal system, 3 (10.71%) involving the urogenital system, 3 (10.71%) involving the central nervous system, 2 cases (7.14%) of cleft lip and palate, 2 (7.14%) involving the respiratory system, 2 (7.14%) involving the gastrointestinal digestive system, and other anomalies.

CONCLUSIONFemale age, infertility duration, and ovarian stimulation treatment are important factors influencing the clinical pregnancy rate of AID. Artificial insemination with cryopreserved donor sperm does not increase the incidence of birth defects, which is considered as a relatively safe technique of assisted reproduction.

Objective To observe and analyze the MRI manifestations of Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome(KTS).Methods Thirty-one cases with diagnosed KTS underwent MRI on a 1.5 T MR system. MRI,MR venography(MRV),MR angiography(MRA)and X-ray venography(XRV)were performed.The pathological changes of the limbs and their veins were observed.Results MRI found soft tissue hemangiomas in 12 cases,soft tissue swelling of the extremities in 27 cases,superficial varicosities in 21 cases,and malformation of the veins in 27 cases.In twenty patients who underwent both MRV and XRV, superficial varicosities in 17 cases and persistent sciatic veins in 11 cases were found with both techniques. The increase of tributary veins was found in 10 cases with XRV,while found in 15 cases with MRV.The erratic venous course was found in 4 cases with MRV.The abnormalities of deep veins were found in 8 cases with MRV,while found in 7 cases with XRV.Conclusion MRI is an efficient and reliable imaging method for diagnosis of KTS.

OBJECTIVETo compare the effect of transumbilical single-site single-port with that of transumbilical single-site double-port laparoscopic varicocelectomy in the treatment of varicocele in adolescents.

METHODSWe randomly assigned 80 varicocele patients aged 10 - 16 years to two groups of equal number to receive transumbilical single-site single-port and single-site double-port laparoscopic varicocelectomy, respectively. We compared the operation time, postoperative hospital stay, incisional pain, complications and satisfaction with the abdominal cosmetic outcomes between the two groups.

RESULTSAll the operations were successfully performed. The double-port group showed a significantly higher score on the Visual Analogue Scale than the single-port group (4.8 +/- 1.4 vs 3.6 +/- 1.1, t = -4.986, P < 0.01), but there were no significant differences between the two groups in the operation time ([29.8 +/- 4.2] vs [31.2 +/- 4.6] min, t = 1.383, P = 0.171), postoperative hospital stay ([1.95 +/- 0.7] vs [1.82 +/- 0.8] d, t = -0.784, P = 0.436), complications (0 vs 0) and scores on the satisfaction with abdominal cosmetic outcomes (4.6 +/- 0.6 vs 4.8 +/- 0.5, t = 1.253, P = 0.214). No recurrence, umbilical hernia, hydrocele and orchiatrophy were found in the two groups of patients at 6 months after operation, and no visible scar was observed on the abdominal surface.

CONCLUSIONWith strict surgical indications, single-site single-port and single-site double-port laparoscopic varicocelectomies have similar clinical effects in the treatment of varicocele, which leave no scar on the abdominal surface. Single-site double-port laparoscopy needs no special instruments and therefore is worthier of wide clinical application.

Objective To observe the expression of cardiotrophin-1(CT-1) in ischemia-reinfusion cardiac muscle of rats and the effect of neuregulin-1(NRG-1).Methods The model of ischemia-reinfusion cardiac muscle of rats were prepared,35 rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:model group(n=8),NRG-1 pretreatment group(n=9),pseudo-surgery group(n=8) and normal control group(n=10).The CT-1 mRNA in the observed cardiac muscle of all groups was measured by RT-PCR and the relative amount of CT-1 mRNA were calculated,and for statistical treatment.Results The CT-1 mRNA of model group was(63.96?9.34),and it was higher than that of pseudo-surgery group(36.16?5.43)and normal control group(36.84?4.64).The significant differences were found in 3 groups(F=47.37 P

OBJECTIVETo evaluate surgical strategy and clinical outcomes for the treatment of thoracolumbar metastatic tumor.

METHODSFrom January 2009 to December 2010,42 patients with thoracolumbar metastatic tumor were treated surgically. Among the patients, 30 patients were male, and 12 patients were female, ranging in age from 28 to 76 years old, with an average age of 56.8 years old. Twenty-five patients had metastatic tumor in thoracic vertebraes, and 17 patients had metastatic tumor in lumbar vertebraes. Thirty-four patients had metastatic tumor in 1 segment, 6 patients had metastatic tumor in 2 segments and 2 patients had metastatic tumor in 3 segments. Two patients had no symptoms and 40 patients had back or leg pain. Eighteen patients had neurologic deficits, and 5 patients had injuries of A degree, 3 patients had injuries of B degree, 4 patients had injuries of C degree, 6 patients had injuries of D degree according to ASIA grading system. The operation goal was made according to Tomita evaluation. The surgical procedures included pallative decompression, tumor curettage and total vertebrectomy, which were decided based on Tomita classification. The pain, spinal cord function,part control of tumor,survival rate and conditions of internal fixation were evaluated at 1 week, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year and 2 years after operation.

RESULTSOne patient died in the operation. Pain relief was obtained in 38 patients after operation. Among 18 patients suffering from spinal cord compromise, 17 patients improved 1 to 4 grades after surgery according to the ASIA grading system. All the patients were followed up and the duration ranged from 24 to 48 months, with a mean time of 34.2 months. Five patients got recurrence. The postoperative survival rates at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year and 2 years were 95.2%, 85.7%, 58.2%, 37.6% respectively.

CONCLUSIONAccording to Tomita system, the different surgical treatments can be selected for patients with spinal metastatic tumors, which can relieve pain, improve the neurological status and spine stabilization, maintain local control, improve quality of life.
