From pregnant women's psychological point of view, the variant characters and the underlying causes are analyzed when they are in the period of childbirth and puerperium. The role of medical staff and the treatments in clinical psychological heath for pregnant women are discussed, which could help the pregnant women give birth smoothly and healthy in puerperium.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between fragile histidine triad(FHIT) transcription abnormalities and HPV16 infection and human cervical tumorigenesis.Methods Total RNA from 5 cervical carcinoma cell lines(SiHa,HeLa,RJC-1,CS1213 and C4-1),58 primary cervical cancer specimens and 18 normal cervical epithelial tissues were extracted and FHIT transcripts were characterized by a two-step(nested) reverse transcription(RT)-PCR.The seven of the PCR products with different size were purified and sequenced.HPV16 infection was assessed by PCR.Results ① There were altered FHIT transcripts in SiHa,HeLa and C4-1 cells.Aberrant FHIT transcripts were detected in 39 out of the 58 cervical cancer samples(67.2%),but none out of 18 in the normal cervix tissue specimens(0%);HPV16 infections were identified in 37 of the 58 cervical cancer tissues(63.8%),but 1 in the 18 normal cervical epithelial tissues(5%),which showed a significant difference between these two groups(P0.05).③ The exon 5 and exon 6 were mainly deleted in the altered FHIT transcripts and no insertion and point mutation were found by DNA sequencing.Conclusion Aberrant FHIT expression was significantly common in cervical cancers and was correlated with HPV16 infection.These findings suggest that the tumor suppressor gene FHIT and high risk HPV16 may play a very important role in human cervical carcinogenesis.

Muscle recently has been identified as a good source of adult stem cells that can differentiate into cells of different lineages.Researchers have identified two types of stem cells in skeletal muscle.Further research is necessary to delineate the relationship between different populations of musclederived stem cells(MDSCs)and between MDSCs and other adult stem cells.The methods used to isolate these cells appear to influence the stem cell characteristics.As these efforts continue,the potential for MDSCsbased therapy for other musculoskeletal injuries,as well as for cardiac and smooth muscle injuries,is currently being explored.The behavior,biocharacteristic,isolation,differentiation and the probability of application to regenerate lost or diseased tissue of MDSCs were summarized.

Objective To study the process of foam fractionation of polyphyllin in semi-batch mode. Methods Taking enrichment ratio, recovery rate of polyphyllin, and purity ratio as the performance criteria and using single examining method to examine the operational parameters, i.e. operation mode, air flow rate, initial feed concentration, solution pH value, initial feed height and temperature on separation performance. The optimal conditions of the process were obtained finally. Results The separation performance is good when gas flow rate is 400 mL/min, initial feed concentration (polyphyllins content) is 0.3 mg/mL, pH value is 7, feed height is 30 cm, and feed temperature is 40 ℃. The enrichment ratio is 25.7, recovery ratio is 42.1%, and the foam liquids purity of total polyphyllin is 41.4%, which is 4.5 times higher than that in feed purity. Conclusion Foam fractionation technique could be applied to separate polyphyllin.

BACKGROUND:Immunity of fetal liver stem cel transplantation is rarely reported, syngeneic and al ogeneic fetal liver stem cel transplantation in the treatment of hepatic cirrhosis is stil unclear.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the therapeutic effects of syngeneic and al ogeneic fetal liver stem cel transplantation on hepatic cirrhosis as wel as immune rejections during the therapeutic process.
METHODS:The fetal liver stem/progenitor cel s from BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice were isolated and purified by the type IV col agen enzyme digestion method. A total of 104 healthy BALB/c mice were randomly assigned to four groups. Normal control group:no treatment;Hepatic cirrhosis group, syngeneic transplantation group and al ogeneic transplantation group:16 weeks after hepatic cirrhosis models of mice were developed by intraperitoneal injection with carbon tetrachloride, physiological saline, syngeneic fetal liver stem cel s and al ogeneic fetal liver stem cel s were injected via the caudal vein. Final y, the survival statuses, liver function, hepatic fibrosis index, the number and ratio of immune cel s (CD4+T, CD8+T, NK, NKT) and histopathologic examinations were compared in each group after transplantation 4 weeks.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The survival rates in the two transplantation groups were both 100%, which was significantly higher than that in the hepatic cirrhosis group (67%, P<0.05). The liver function and liver fibrosis index in each group did not show statistical differences (P>0.05). Immunological tests showed no difference between groups (P>0.05). Pathohistology examination of hepatic tissue repair:Al ogeneic transplantation group>syngeneic transplantation group>hepatic cirrhosis group. Hence, fetal liver stem cel transplantation via the caudal vein could elevate the survival rate of hepatic cirrhosis mice, al eviate the degree of hepatocyte necrosis. There is no immunologic rejection during syngeneic and al ogeneic fetal liver stem cel transplantation that could help to treat hepatic cirrhosis in mice.

The manipulation and direct mechanical measurement of single DNA molecule could give much information about its elastic properties. Single stranded DNA (ssDNA) of 100 bases was adsorbed onto flat gold surface fabricated by depositing gold onto mica surface. Atomic force microscope (AFM) was used to observe the surface topography with different ssDNA concentration. Then the ssDNAs were stretched by AFM tip and in 50% cases ssDNAs could be stretched.Various kinds of force curves have been observed due to the different interaction between AFM tip and ssDNAs.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of preemptive analgesia with parecoxib, a novel intravenous cyclooxygenase type-2 inhibitor, far acute postoperative pain management after intracranial tumor resection.Methods Sixty ASA I or II patients of both sexes aged 18-60 yr with body mass index < 30 kg/m~2 were randomized into 2 groups ( n = 30 each) : control group (group C) and parecoxib group (group P) . In group P, parecoxib 40 mg in 2 ml of normal saline ( NS) was injected iv over 2 min before induction of anesthesia. In group C NS 2 ml was injected instead of parecoxib. Patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) with fentanyl (bolus dose 0.05 μg/kg, lockout interval 15 min, background infusion 0.2μg·kg~ (-1)·h~(-1), 24 h maximum dose 9.6μg /kg) was used after operation. The number of successfully delivered doses and the number of attempt were calculated. If PCIA did not provide satisfactory analgesia (VAS < 3) , iv bolus of fentanyl 1μg /kg or tramadol 12 mg/kg was given as rescue medication. VAS (0 = no pain, 10 = worst pain) was used to measure pain intensity and recorded at 2, 6, 12 and 24 h after operation. Patient's satisfaction, nausea and vomiting were recorded, and activated coagulation time (ACT), coagulation rate (CR) and platelet function (PF) were measured before and 2 h after parecoxib administration. Results The consumption of fentanyl, the number of successfully delivered doses and the number of attempt, the number of rescue medication administration and degree of nausea and vomiting were significantly lower while the level of patient's satisfaction was higher in group P than in group C. There was no difference in ACT, CR and PF between the two groups. Conclusion Parecoxib given before induction of anesthesia can improve the efficacy of PCIA with fentnayl and decrease side effects.
