OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the efficacy of ursodeoxycholic acid(UDCA)in the prevention ofulcerative colitisassociated colorectal cancer (UC-CRC) and dysplasia (UC-Dys),and provide evidence-based reference for clinic. METH-ODS:Retrieved from Cochrane Library,EMBase,PubMed,CJFD,CBM,VIP and Wanfang Database,randomized controlled tri-als(RCT)or cohort studies about UDCA(test group)versus placebo(control group)in the prevention of UC-CRC and UC-Dys were collected. Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.3 software after quality evaluation and data extraction by Co-chrane Manual 5.1.0. RESULTS:Totally 7 studies(3 randomized controlled trials and 4 cohort studies)were included in the analy-sis,involving 672 patients. Results of Meta-analysis of 3 RCT showed that there was no significant difference in the incidence of UC-CRC and UC-Dys between 2 groups [OR=0.95,95%CI(0.17,5.12),P=0.95];results of Meta-analysis of 4 cohort studiess-howed that there was no significant difference in the incidence of UC-CRC and UC-Dys between 2 groups[OR=0.74,95%CI(0.30, 1.84),P=0.52]. Results of subgroup analysis showed,the incidence of UC-CRC and UC-Dys in test group with low-dose UDCA (<15 mg/kg) was significantly lower than control group,the difference was statistically significant [OR=0.19,95%CI(0.08, 0.49),P<0.001];there were no signifficant diferences in the incidence of UC-CRC and UC-Dys in high-dose UDCA group[OR=1.97,95%Cl(0.53,7.25),P=0.31](≥15 mg/kg). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:UDCA can not decease the incidence of UC-CRC and UC-Dys,it only prompts a possible trend toward decreased UC-CRC and UC-Dys risk in low-doseUDCA.

Objective To investigate the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on oocyte quality in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) undergoing in-vitro-fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET).Method Totally 217 patients with PCOS undergoing IVF-ET were randomized into two groups by the random number table, 119 patients in an EA group and 98 in a control group. In addition to the long-term ovarian hyperstimulation given to the two groups, electroacupuncture was involved in the intervention in the EA group. The spindle, quality of eggs, and pregnancy result were observed and compared.Result The high-quality embryo rate was significantly higher in the EA group than the control group (P<0.05), and compared to the control group, the pregnancy rate was 8.36% higher in the EA group; it’s found that the number of eggs with spindle located between 11 and 1 o’clock was in a significant positive correlation with the level of E2 on the HCG administration day and the high-quality embryo rate (P<0.01); the EA group had a markedly higher ratio of eggs with spindle located between 11 and 1 o’clock compared to the control group (P<0.05); electroacupuncture markedly reduced the dosage and duration of using Gn in the PCOS patients (P<0.05). Conclusion It’s proven the relation between spindle and the quality of eggs; electroacupuncture can enhance the quality of eggs and the pregnancy rate in the PCOS patients.

Background Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most important microvascular complications of diabetes,which has become one of the leading causes of blindness.Neovascularization is the main pathological manifestations of DR,but its mechanism is unknown.There is a clear need to investigate its pathogenesis which can offer potential therapeutic targets.Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the expression and distribution of visfatin and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in diabetic model rats.Methods This study was approved by Animal Ethic Committee of Inner Mongolia Medical University.Sixty SPF 8-week-old male SpragueDawley rats were randomized into the diabetic group and control group.The rats were housed under a condition that alternated between 12 hours of light and darkness,with free access to rat food and water.Diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of 60 mg/kg (0.60 ml/100 g) of streptozotocin (STZ) and control rats received equivalent volume of buffer.The models were regarded as successful when blood glucose was ≥ 16.7 mmol/L.Rats were sacrificed 12 weeks after the injection of STZ and retinal specimens were prepared to detect the expression of visfatin and VEGF.Total retinal protein was isolated from the retinas of experimental and control eyes,and the expression of visfatin and VEGF was assessed by Western blot.Frozen cross sections of retinas of 5 μm thickness were used to perform double immunofluorescence staining with anti-visfatin and anti-VEGF antibodies.Results Mean body weight of the diabetic rats was (189.02±11.34) g and that of the control rats was (489.57 ± 14.48) g at 12 weeks post-injection,showing a significant difference between them (t =5.236,P =0.003).Mean blood glucose level was (29.25±3.86) mmol/L in the diabetic group and (5.32±1.01) mmol/L in the control group,demonstrating a significant difference (t =11.778,P =0.000).Double immunofluorescence staining showed reduced expression of visfatin and VEGF in the retinal nerve fibrous layer and glial cells in the control rats.A stronger staining for visfatin and VEGF was found in the various layers of the retina in the diabetic rats,with an expression level of visfatin (A value) of 346.26±41.23,which was considerably higher than that of the control group (102.07±65.01) (t =8.291,P =0.000) in 12 weeks after injection.Furthermore,the expression of VEGF in the retina was elevated in the diabetic group compared with the control group (A value) (415.88±92.15 vs.113.06±32.06) (t=10.067,P=0.000).Conclusions Visfatin might contribute to the pathologic progression of diabetic retinal,neovascularization and it might play a synergistic role with VEGF in the pathophysiology of DR.

Objective To investigate the effects of levocarnitine on pregnancy outcome of the patients with obstructive azoospermia treated with intracytoplasmic sperm injection ( ICSI ) . Methods A total of 74 patients with obstructive azoospermatism treated with ICSI randomly divided into 2 groups:treatment group( n=38) , taking levocarnitine before treatment with ICSI 1 g twice a day for three months;control group( n=36) , taking vitamine E before treatment with ICSI 0.1 g twice a day time for three months.tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), reactive oxygen species(ROS) level, epididymal sperm motility and morphology in epididymal fluid of the two groups were determined before and after treatments. The number of matured oocytes, fertilization, and embryos of adequate quality, the rate of fertilization and embryo of adequate quality, and pregnancy rates after PESA-ICSI were compared between the two groups. Results TNF-α in epididymal fluid before and after the treatment was (5.39±2.28)and(4.05±2.14)ng.mL-1 in the treatment group(P<0.05), and(4.97±2.13)and(4.83±2.35)ng.mL-1 in the control group.ROS in epididymal fluid before and after the treatment was(62.72±8.51),(56.28±8.70)RLU.s-1(P<0.05)in the treatment group( P<0. 05 ) , and ( 62. 61 ± 7. 55 ) and ( 61. 05 ± 6. 77 ) RLU . s-1 in the control group. After treatment with levocarnitine, epididymal sperm motility was significantly increased(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in all the indexes in the control group before and after the treatment(P>0.05).After PESA-ICSI, the number and percentage of high quality embryo in the treatment group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion Levocarnitine can down-regulate epididymal TNF-α and ROS in patients with obstructive azoospermatism, thereby improve the environment of the epididymis and elevate the quality of sperm and ICSI pregnancy outcome.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of preoperative oral pregabalin for attenuating postoperative pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.MethodsIn this prospective,randomized controlled double-blind study,sixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 19-72 yr weighing 46-86 kg undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomly divided into 2 groups ( n =30 each):control group (group C) received placebo,and pregabalin group (group P) received oral pregabalin 150 mg 1 h before surgery.Anesthesia was induced with propofol,fentanyl and rocuronium and maintained with sevoflurane inhalation and intermittent iv boluses of fentanyl and rocuronium.The patients were intubated and mechanically ventilated.BIS value was maintained at 40-50 during operation.Static and dynamic VAS score,Ramsay score and consumption of morphine were recorded at 6,12,and 24 h after surgery.Side-effects including nausea,vomiting,headache and dizziness were also recorded.ResultsStatic and dynamic VAS scores and morphine consumption were significantly lower during the first 24 h after surgery while Ramsay scores were higher at 6 h after operation in group P than in group C.There was no significant difference in the incidence of side-effects between the 2 groups.No over-sedation occurred in group P.ConclusionPreoperative oral pregabalin 150 mg is safe and effective in reducing postoperative pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Objective To investigate the effect of sodium citrate on the efficacy of oral midazolam premedication in children with congenital heart disease. Methods Forty ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ children, aged 2-6 yr, weighing 12-20 kg, undergoing cardiac surgery, were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 20 each): control group (gronp C) and sodium citrate group (group S). Group S received oral mixture of midazolam 0.12 ml/kg (0.6 my/kg), ketamine 0.12 ml/kg (6 my/kg), glucose 0.12 ml/kg (60 mg/kg) and sodium citrate 0.12 ml/kg (3 mg/kg), total volume 0.48 ml/kg. Group C received oral mixture of midazolam 0.12 ml/kg, ketamine 0.12 ml/kg and glucose 0.24 ml/kg, total volume 0.48 ml/kg. Hydrochloric acid (pH value 1.75) was mixed with the mixtures in the two groups and pH values were measured. Preoperative anxiety scale and the onset time,sedation score and parental separation score after receiving oral drugs were recorded in preparation room for anesthesia. After entering the operating room, HR, MAP and SpO2 were monitored, and the response to venepuncture in children and the adverse effects associated with oral drugs were also observed and recorded. Results The pH value was 1.97 in group C and 4.52 in group S. The parental separation score, sedation score and response score were significantly lower and the onset time was significantly shorter in group S than in group C. HR, MAP and SpO2 were in the normal range after entering the operating room. There was no obvious adverse effect after administration of oral drugs in the two groups. Conclusion Application of sodium citrate in the oral premedication in children with congenital heart disease can raise the pH value, shorten the onset time of midazolam, and enhance the sedative efficacy.

Objective To establish an expression system of TCRγ9/δ2-Fc protein by baculovirus vector ex-pression system and identify biological function of expressed TCRγ9/δ2-Fc protein. Methods γ9Fc and 82 (OT3) Fc gene fragments were amplified by overlap PCR and inserted into expression vector pBACp10ph. The recombinant plasmid pBACp10ph-γ9/δ2(OT3)-Fc and the baculovirus DNA were co-transfected into st9 cells. The expression position of TCRγ9/δ2 (OT3)-Fc was identified by Western blot and the expression efficiency of γ9Fc and δ2 (OT3) Fc was tested by flow cytometry (FCM). Furthermore, the binding activity of TCRγ9/δ2 (OT3)-Fc protein with SKOV3 ceils and MNS protein was evaluated with laser scanning confocal microslopy and surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Results The recombinant vector pBACp10ph-γ9/δ2(OT3)-Fc was constructed and TCRγ9/δ2(OT3)-Fc protein was expressed in sf9 ceils. However, the expression efficiency of γ9Fc and 82 (0T3) Fc was quite differ-ent. It was proved that purified TCRγ9/δ2 (OT3)-Fc protein can bind with SKOV3 cell and MNS protein. Conclu-sion TCRγ9/δ2-Fc protein is successfully expressed in baculovirus vector expression system and TCRγ9/δ2-Fc protein can simulate the binding activity of TCR in vitro.

Objective To evaluate the value of the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)in the diagnosis and classification of plas-ma-cell mastitis (PCM).Methods The breast MRIs of eighteen pathologically confirmed PCM patients were retrospectively ob-served and analyzed.The manifestations of lesions,including shape,size,margin,and characteristic enhancement on T1 WI,T2 WI with fat suppression and contrast enhanced T1 WI were observed and documented respectively.Results PCM were divided into three types according to MRIs:the inflammation type 4 cases,the abscess type 9 cases,and the mixed type 5 cases.In the inflammation type,3 cases of lesions were wide extending while the other 1 limited in nipple and areola.All 4 cases of lesions were hypointensity on T1 WI and hyperintensity on T2 WI with fat suppression.And in the contrast enhanced scanning,2 cases showed patchy hyperin-tensity and 2 cases showed branch-like enhancement.In abscess type,6 cases of lesions were wide and 3 cases limited in one quad-rant.Of all 9 cases,there were 3 cases with single abscess and 6 with multiple abscess;and all cases showed hypointensity on T1 WI and hyperintensity on T2 WI with fat suppression.In the enhanced scanning,there were 4 cases with honeycomb-like hyperintensity and 5 cases with annular and patchy enhancement.In mixed type,inflammation was accompanied with abscess and fistula.All cases were hypointensity on T1 WI and hyperintensity on T2 WI with fat suppression.In the enhanced scanning,3 cases showed honeycomb-like enhancement,1 case showed multiple annular enhancement and 1 case showed annular and patchy enhancement.Regions of in-terest were selected and time-signal intensity curves were obtianed in every enhancement cases,all of which were influent.Of all ca-ses,5 showed high-protein deposition in the expansion ducts,exhibiting hyperintensity on T1 WI and hypointensity on T2 WI with fat suppression.Conclusion The abscess type is the most common in PCM and the second is the mixed type.Annular and honeycomb-like enhancement are characteristic appearance of these two types,which are helpful in the diagnosis and classification of PCM.
