Objective To explore the role of estradiol decline in the early luteal phase (the 2nd day after oocyte retrieval) in the prediction of in-vitro fertilization outcomes. Methods A total of 236 cases under in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET)/ intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transfer(ICSI-ET) cycles were included in this retrospective study of their medical records. The cases were divided into three groups according to the levels of estradiol decline on the 2nd day following OPU: group A (n = 70) with the decline rate of less than 70%, group B (n=114) with the decline rate of 70%~80%and group C (n=52) at the decline rate of more than 80%. The comparisons were done among the three groups in terms of the number of oocyte retrieval, the rate of fertilization, the rate of best oocytes and the rate of miscarriage. Results There were no significant differences statistically in the number of oocyte retrieval, the rate of fertilization, the rate of best oocytes and the rate of miscarriage (P > 0.05). But the rates of clinical pregnancy rate in groups A and B were significantly higher than that in group C (68.6% and 68.4% vs. 44.2%) (P < 0.05). Conclusion The levels of estradiol declines in the early luteal phase may be important in the prediction of IVF outcomes.

Nowadays partial splenic embolization (PSE) is an important therapeutic means to treat secondary hypersplenism caused by portal hypertension. By reducing the splenic blood flow and increasing hepatic blood supply, the peripheral blood picture and the liver function indexes as well as the portal hypertension can be effectively improved. This article aims mainly to make a comprehensive review on the therapeutic effect and mechanism of PSE, its clinical efficacy, as well as the factors affecting the clinical results, and to discuss the postoperative complications, the advantages and disadvantages of different embolic materials.

One case patient with a transient increase of creatinine after operation,renal function returned to normal 7 days after the treatment. ( 3) Follow up:there was no recurrence of hemorrhage after 3?6 months of follow?up. Conclusion Transcatheter embolization in the treatment of intracta?ble hematuria has definite curative effect,less trauma,high safety,less complications and faster postoperative re?covery.

Objective To observe the effect of Dahuangzhechongwan on protein excretion, serum cholesterol, TXB_2 and 6-keto-PGF_(1?) in rats with adriamycin-induced nephrosclerosis. Methods The rats received twice-intravenous injections of adriamycin after one kidney was removed, and were fed with hyperlipide food to establish an animal model for diffusion mesangioproliferation following with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. The rats were randomly divided into shame-operated group, adriamycin nephrosclerosis group, Dahuangzhechongwan group, benazepril group. Urinary protein excretion, blood fat, TXB_2 and 6-keto-PGF_(1?) were observed. Result Proteinuria extract was decreased, the plasma cholesterol was significantly lower, the level of TXB_2 was cut down and 6-Ket-PGF_(1?) was increased by Dahuangzhechongwan. Conclusion Dahuangzhechongwan has the role of simutianeous application of elimination and tonification, promoting the circulation of Qi and blood, eliminating blood stasis, improving the hemodynamics. Dahuangzhechongwan has the renal protection on rat with adriamycin-induced nephrosclerosis, the mechanism may be relate with adjusting the balance of TXB_2 and 6-keto-PGF_(1?).

Objective:To construct an immune inhibitor of new TNF-?,C-terminal sequence of new rhTNF-? was replaced with sequence of T-help cell of hen egg-white lysozyme(HEL).Methods:The rhTNF-? mutant was cloned 、expressed and purified.Results:The DNA sequencing analysis showed that the C-terminal sequence of new rhTNF-? mutant was correct.The mutant was inserted into pBV220 expression vector .After the recombinant bacteria was incubated at 42℃ for 4 h,a new band of the protein with relative molecular weight of 1.7 kD was shown on the gel.The band amounted to 30 % of total bacteria protein.Western blot showed that the mutant protein could associated with anti-TNF-? antibody.After the protein was purified by through a column of Q-Sepharose Fast Flow, the purity of the protein was above 90%.The biological activity of the protein was measured with L929 cells.The result showed that biological activity of the protein was totally lost.Conclusion:The experimental evidence demonstrated that the construction of new rhTNF-? mutant was successful.The mutant not only can be associated with anti-TNF-? antibody, but also lose the biological activity of original TNF-?.

Objective:To highlight the key points of primary culture of human nasal epithelial cells by enzymatical dissociation for high achievement ratio,and to establish a successful primary culture model for subsequent experiments.Method:Primary culture of human nasal epithelial cells was performed with enzymatical dissociation of isolated tissue in serum-free medium. On the basis of this method,some improvements were subjected,such as stripping mucosal epithelium from adjacent connective tissue,applying DNase type Ⅰ to digesting procedure,adding trypsin directly to the collagenase solution containing digested mucosa pieces,employing uncoated culture dishes and so on. Immunofluorescence with a monoclonal anti-cytokeratin antibody 8/18 was used to confirm the epithelial nature of the cultured cells. Result:Nasal epithelial cells grew well and confluenced on the 6th to 8th day. Positive expression of cytokeratin(CK)8/18 showed the epithelial property of cultured cells.Conclusion:Primary culture model of human nasal epithelial cells can be successfully established by enzymatical dissociation. Improvements on processes of material using and enzyme digestion can gain a high achievement ratio and harvest a high purity and certain amount of reliable primary epithelial cells.

Objective To investigate effect and mechanism of Xuebijing administration at various concentrations on ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) of rabbit limbs.Methods Thirty New Zealand rabbits were divided into control group (n =10),Xuebijing group Ⅰ (n =10) and Xuebijing group Ⅱ(n =10) according to random number table.Rabbit models of IRI in lower extremities were established.Each group received corresponding therapy after reperfusion:rabbits in Xuebijing group Ⅰ were firstly administered 4 ml/kg Xuebijing solution and 6 ml/kg isotonic saline; rabbits in Xuebijing group Ⅱ were administered 2 ml/kg Xuebijing solution and 8 ml/kg isotonic saline; rabbits in control group were simply administered 10 ml/kg isotonic saline.Venous blood samples were collected before reperfusion and at 1 h,2 h,4 h after reperfusion to measure coagulation parameters (APTT,Fib,INR and PT) and biochemical items (ALB,LDH and CK).Results APTT in Xuebijing group Ⅰ presented obvious improvement at 1 h and 4 h after reperfusion as compared with control group (P ＜ 0.01).PT in Xuebijing groups Ⅰ and lⅡ was significantly longer after reperfusion than that before reperfusion (P ＜0.05).Fib level in Xuebijing group Ⅰ was much higher at 4 h after reperfusion than that before reperfusion (P ＜ 0.05).ALB level at 1 hour after reperfusion showed no statistical differences from that before reperfusion in Xuebijing groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ (P ＞ 0.05).LDH and CK levels in Xuebijing group Ⅰ were much lower than those in control group after reperfusion (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Xuebijing injection relieves limb IRI,with better effect in Xuebijing group Ⅰ than in Xuebijing group Ⅱ.Therapeutic mechanism may be associated with its involvement in adjusting clotting function and mitigating injury of muscle tissues.
