50%) in the objective findings and/or subjective symptoms in both patients.In case 1 and case 2,the frequency of daily urination decreased by 7.3% and 34.3%,the volume of urination increased by 118.2% and 65.7%,the degree of urgent urination declined by 72.0% and 68.1%,respectively.Then they received permanent electrode and neurostimulator implantation and the improvement remained significant.They were followed up for 26 and 17 months,respectively,and no significant complications were found. Conclusions SNN is a micro-invasive,effective,and safe therapy for chronic voiding dysfunction.It may also be effective for some neurogenic dysfunctions of the bladder and urethra.

To explore the clinical characteristic and intervention strategies for pregnancy complicated with heart failure. The clinical data of 67 pregnant women with heart failure during January 1998 to December 2010 were collected and analyzed.The rate of heart failure in pregnancy with heart diseases was 31％ (67/216).The causes of pregnancy complicated with heart failure were peripartum cardiomyopathy ( n =33,49％ ) and hypertensive disorder complicating with pregnancy heart disease( n =28,42％ ).Heart failure in pregnancy appeared at an average of (36.0 ± 2.7 ) weeks.The average terminating time of pregnant women with heart failure was ( 36.5 ± 2.1 ) weeks.Cesarean section was the main safe choice of delivery for pregnant women with heart failure.The average weight of newborns for pregnant women with heart failure was(2517 ±541 )g.The rate of neonatal asphyxia was 22％ (11/50).Strengthening routine antenatal examination and treating pregnant complications timely can prevent and reduce the incidence of heart failure.

AIM: To investigate the effect of cyclophosphamide(CTX) on proliferation and apoptosis of mesangial cells(GMC) of rat in vitro. METHODS: GMC proliferation was detected by MTT method, GMC apoptosis was examined by inverted microscopy for phase-contract and fluoroscopy and flow cytometry analysis. The levels of Fas and Bcl-2 were also detected by immunohistology. RESULTS: The proliferation of GMC were inhibited by CTX, methylprednisolone(MP), low molecular weight heparin(LMWH). Apoptosis of GMC was induced by CTX, the apoptosis rate of GMC was 8.2%, and the Fas level was increased. CONCLUSION: CTX could inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of GMC possibly by enhancing the Fas level.

Objective To investigate the contractive effect of atropine, noradrenaline,adrenaline and pethidine on sphincter of Oddi (SO) isolated from rabbits. Methods The rings of SO isolated from 60 rabbits were treated with Krebs solution and then were exposed to gradient atropine,anisodamin, noradrenalin, adrenaline or pethidine with 10 each. The rest 10 rings of SO treated with Krebs solution only were served as controls. The amplitude and frequency of contraction of SO were recorded. Results Compared with control group, all of the 5 medicines were able to significantly decrease the contractive amplitude, but not frequency, of SO at the concentrations ranged from 10-6 mol/L to 10-2 mol/L (P＜0.05). The inhibition order was as follows: noradrenaline ＞ adrenaline ＞atropine ＞ anisodamin ≈ pethidine. Conclusions Beside atropine and anisodamin, noradrenaline,adrenaline and pethidine also showed the direct relaxation of SO by decreasing contractive amplitude of SO. Adrenaline or noradrenaline displayed stronger effect in decreasing contractive amplitude of SO when compared with atropine or anisodamin.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of CDK4 and cyclin D1 in gastric carcinoma,and to discuss their correlation with WHO histological classification,TNM stages and lymph node metastasis.Methods Forty paraffin wax specimens from patients with gastric carcinoma were collected and expression of CDK4 and cyclin D1 proteins were detected by immunohistochemistry.Results Immunohistochemistry demonstrated that the positive rates for CDK4 and cyclin D1 protein were 65% and 55%,respectively.There was positive correlation between CDK4 and cyclin D1 proteins(P0.05).Conclusion CDK4 and cyclin D1 proteins are frequently overexpressed in gastric carcinoma and there is a positive relationship between the two proteins,which may be involved in the development of gastric carcinoma.

To against the emergence of drug-resistent candidiasis, the studys of synergism of natural compounds combine with antifungal agents in vitro showed a continuous growth in recent years. The paper reviewed recent progresses to compare the synergetic effect by FICI method, and to conclude the synergetic mechanisms which have been confirmed as a reference for futher study.

Objective To analyze and compare two potency assay methods of protamine sulfate.Methods Heparin titration method was according to foreign pharmacopoeia,while biological assay method was according to China pharmacopoeia(2015).Results The absorbance at the end-point was stable at 0.10 mg/mL and 0.15 mg/mL test solutions.The relative standard deviations(RSDs)of potency results were all less than 5%.Three test solutions and volumes of the titrant had a good linear relationship(R2 =1.000).The results of titration method were significantly related to those of biological assay(P=0.013),with similar RSD(P>0.05).However,the potency of titration method were significantly lower than those of biological assay (P=0.045).Conclusion Heparin titration method is good-using,convenient,and need to be applied widely at home.
