In the presence of antischistosomular serum(Ab), the adherence of macrophages(M?). eosinophils(Eos) and neutrophils(Neu) to and the killing effect on schistosomula of Schistosoma japonicum were studied with a mouse model. In vitro experiment showed that all the three kinds of effectcr cells could adhere to the surface of the schistosomula when opsonized with specific Ab resulting in the significant increase in the percentage of dead schistosomula. When SPA was added to the system, the percentage of schistosomula with adherent cells decreased markedly. It was revealed that the adherence of cells was at least partially through the binding of Fc fragment of IgG to Fc receptor on the cell surfaces. After having been incubated with Ab and/or cells for 18 h in vitro, the schistosomula were inoculated into the peritoneal cavity of mice. The adult recovery rate 6 weeks after inoculation in groups Eos+Ab and M? + Ab were significantly lower than that of the control group (P

Objective To investigate the effect of vagina reconstruction using tissue-engineering biological material (acellular dermal matrix) in an animal model.Methods Vagina excision and vagina reconstruction with tissue-engineering biological material were performed in 12 Chinese experimental miniature pigs.The control group was matched with two of normal vagina specimens resected.At week 1,2,4,6,8,12 after surgery,the animals were sacrificed,respectively,and the neovaginas were prepared for immunohistochemical and Van Gieson (VG) staining to evaluate the status of various layer growth of vagina.Epithelial broad spectrum of monoclonal antibodies of AE1/AE3 and α-actin were used to test the existence of epithelial and smooth muscle tissue by immunohistochemical staining.The ultrastructure of neovagina was studied by transmission electron microscope at week 1 and 12 after surgery.Contractile function of isolated smooth muscle of neovagina was evaluated by chemical and electronic stimulation after 12 weeks' reconstruction.Results (1) Epithelization of 2/3 neovaginal mucosa was observed within 1 week.Only 1-2 layer epitheliums were observed under the light microscopy and epithelial cells with characteristics of loose and disarrangement were shown with the electron microscopy.Within 4-6 weeks,epithelization in mucosa of neovaginal canal was intensified to 4-5 layers.After 12 weeks,the differences between the neovagina and the native vagina were harldy noted either in the gross or microscopically.(2) After 4 weeks,a few smooth muscle cells were observed with VG and immunohistochemical staining,and homogeneous muscle bundle was formed.(3) After 12 weeks,similar contractile responses between neovagina and native vagina were observed when KCI and electrical stimulation with different frequency and voltage were given [(2.96±0.29)g vs.(3.14±0.30)g,(3.43±0.34)g vs.(4.65±0.73)g,(4.92±0.38)g vs.(4.89±0.44)g].Conclusion The tissue-engineering biological material might be an ideal graft used in the reconstruction of vagina.

Objective To investigate clinical features and management of complicated or rare vulvovaginal anomalies derived from urogenital sinus malformation.Methods Medical documents of 6 cases with vulvovaginal anomalies treated in Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in Peking Union Medical College Hospital in the past 10 years were reviewed retrospectively.According to embryological and anatomical characteristics,the classification system were established.Results This kind of vulvovngihal anomalies was very rare and not enrolled into current diagnosis and treatment system. All patients had a common clinical features:menstruation bleeding and urine from the same outflow tract;and two orifices on perineum were found by bimannal examination,one orifice located under clitoris,the other orifice Was anus.No vagihal vestibule and vulvar were observed between those two orifices.According to clinical features,those 6 cases were divided into 3 types:type Ⅰ Was persistence of distant urogenital sinus with clinical manifestation of simple labial fusion;type Ⅱ was low communication between vagina and urogenital sinus (infrasphincterie),presenting with distal vaginai atresia and urethrovagihal fistula;type Ⅲ was high communication (suprasphincteric) with distal vagihal atresia and more proximal urethrovavihal fistula.Type Ⅲ was frequently associated with severe rectum and anus anomaly,and other malformation as well.All patients were treated by surgical correction.Basically.the principle of operation wag to reconstruct perineal appearance,release the obstruction,and rear the defect and ultimately recovering the normal function.The alternative surgical methods should be considered individually.Conclusions The vulvovnginal anomalies derived from urogenital sinus malformation were complicated clinically.To establish classification system will be benefit for clinicians to make diagnosis and choose appropriate treatment. The individualized surgery should be performed on those patients to restore the structure and function,in the mean time,the factors associated with esthetics.sex and psychics should be considered.

Objective To investigate the route of minimal invasive sling procedures and evaluate their safety. Methods Tension-free vaginal tape (TVT),TVT-obturator (TVT-O) and posterior intravaginal sling (P-IVS) procedure were performed on five fresh pelvis.4% formaldehyde was used to preserve the cadavers and colored latex was injected into the vessels.An anatomic study and measurements between the trocars and related vessels or organs were carried out.Results There was no complication during all injections.The distance between TVT trocar and pubic vessels,the bladder,external lilac vessels and obturator vessels were 0.6,0.6,4.2 and 4.3 cm,respectively.Out of control of TVT trocar,the axial rotation or lateral diversion of TVT handle could injure these structures.We found during TVT-O operation,the retropubic space was not violated.The right placement of introducer was very important. When the beginning point was too deep into the anterior vaginal wall,2.2 cm proximal to urethral meatus or on a horizontal plane with a 35° angle relative to the urethral sagittal plane,the introducer would enter the retropubic space or perforate the upper posterior zone of the obturator membrane,where the obturator vessels and nerves exit the obturator canal.Based on our study,the diversion of P-IVS trocar would damage the rectum,and the pudendal vessels and nerves were relatively safe.Conclusions The TVT trocar passes the retropubic space and may injure the important vessels or organs.The route of TVT-O inside-out operation is stable and the retropubic space is not violated.The blunt design in the P-IVS trocar tips is helpful to reduce injury.

Objective To investigate the pathogenesis of endometriosis by studying endometriosis coexisting with variable genital tract anomalies and analysis the association between obstructive or nonobstructive anomalies with endometriosis.Methods From January 2000 to April 2010,a total of 67 cases of endometriosis coexisting with genital tract anomalies undergoing treatment in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were studied retrospectively.Results According to subtypes of concurrent genital tract anomalies,67 cases were divided into 19 cases in obstructive group and 48 cases in non-obstructive group.(1) Age and symptoms:the mean age were (22 ± 8) years in obstructive group and (32 ± 7) years in non-obstructive group,which reached statistical difference (P ＜ 0.05).The major symptoms were dysmenorrheal or chronic pelvic pain (14/19) and amenorrhea (8/19) in obstructive group.However,in non-obstructive group,the major symptoms were dysmenorrheal or chronic pelvic pain (31％,15/48) and infertility (35％,17/48) and abortion (21％,10/48).(2) Degree and incidence of endometriosis:the moderate or severe endometriosis was 11/19 in obstructive group and 40％ (19/48) in non-obstructive group,which did not show statistical difference (P ＞ 0.05).The incidence of peritoneal endometriosis,ovarian endometriosis,adenomyosis did not show significant difference between two groups (all P ＞ 0.05).The rate of moderate or severe endometriosis coexisting with duplex uterus,uterus bicornis and uterus septus did not show significant difference in non-obstructive group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The severity of endometriosis showed no association with obstructive anomalies.The results implied that there might be other factors involved in pathogenesis of endometriosis.

The effects of various soluble extracts of Ascaris suum on human blood coagulation were studied. The extract of whole worm could prolong recalcification time (RT) and kaolin-activated, partial thromboplastin time (KPTT), but did not alter prothrombin time (PT), indicating that the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation was inhibited by this extract, but the extrinsic pathway was not affected. Whole worm extract inhibited platelet aggregation induced by ADP, but did not influence the one induced by adrenaline. Neither whole worm extract nor body fluid caused fibrinolysis. In KPTT assays with three dif-ferent extracts, cuticle extract exhibited the strongest anticoagulant activity, while whole worm extract and body fluid much less so. These data suggested that anticoagulants of ascaris mainly exist in the cuticle,

To explore the effect of Kaixin Capsule (KC, composed of Radix Panacis Quinquefolii, Radix Astragali, Radix Ophiopogonis, Rhizoma Chuanxiong,Rhizoma Cyperi, etc.) in reconstructing the collagen of non infarct region of left ventricle in rats after myocardial infarction (MI) and to study its mechanism.Seventy rats were allocated to mimic operation group (Group Ⅰ), model group (Group Ⅱ), high dosage KC group (Group Ⅲ), low dosage KC group (Group Ⅳ) and positive control group (Group Ⅴ). Rat models of left ventricle reconstruction were established by the ligation of the main stem of left coronary artery. Three days after modeling, the rats were treated with KC for eight weeks. And then the total collagen content in the myocardium of non infarct region and angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ) and aldosterone (ALD) levels in blood and myocardium were measured by oxyproline hydroxyproline method and radioimmunoassay. The total collagen content was higher in Group Ⅱ than that in Group Ⅰ (P0 05) . [Conclusion]KC can inhibit the production of collagen and increase myocardial compliance and its mechanism may be involved in the regulation of rennin angiotensin aldosterone system.

Objective To evaluate short-term clinical effects of modified total pelvic floor reconstruction surgery in treatment of severe pelvic organ prolapse.Methods Thirty-nine cases with severe pelvic organ prolapse including vault prolapse diagnosed by pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POP-Q) system received modified total pelvic floor reconstruction surgery.Clinical parameters associated peri-operative period and 12 months after surgery and complications were analyzed Results Median operation time was 70 minutes (30-240 minutes),median blood loss was 100 ml (10-200 ml).Seventy-seven percent (30/39) patients were able to micturate spontaneously in the next morning after surgery with postvoid residual volume less than 100 ml (0-650 ml).No severe intra-operative complications were recorded and the rate of postoperative morbidity was 20% (8/39 ).Median post-operative hospital stay was 4 days (1-11 days).The patients were followed up at median 24 months(13-29 months).According to POP-Q system evaluation,the successful rate of operation reached 100% .Two cases (5%,2/39) were recorded as symptomatic recurrence which manifested as posterior wall prolapse within 24 months after operation.During follow-up,8% (3/39) patients were found to have erosion within 7 months after surgery,and urgent urinary incontinence was observed in 5% (2/39) cases,while constipation occurred in 8% (3/39) cases.The most remarkable complication was dyspareunia (36%,5/14); while 50% (7/14) experienced better sexual life after surgery.Conclusions Modified total pelvic reconstruction is a safe,efficient and micro-invasive surgery in treatment of severe pelvic organ prolapse.However,its influence on post-operative sexual life should be concerned.

Objective To reclassify the patients with former diagnosis of vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN)Ⅱ, VIN Ⅱ - Ⅲ, VIN Ⅲ, Bowen disease and Bowenoid papulosis according to the 2004 modified terminology of International Society for the Study of Vulvar Disease (ISSVD) and evaluate the effects of surgical treatment. Methods According to the 2004 modified terminology of ISSVD, a retrospective review of the histological slides of 19 cases, who diagnosed as VIN Ⅱ , VIN Ⅱ - Ⅲ, VIN Ⅲ,Bowen disease and Bowenoid papulosis treated in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 1999 to 2006,were performed to reclassify by pathologist and the clinicopathologic data were also analyze& Results According to the 2004 modified terminology of ISSVD, all 19 cases were reclassified as usual type VIN and were belonged to the subtype of warty type except one, the only Bowen disease patient whose one of focuses belonged to the subtype of basaloid type and the other focus belonged to the subtype of warty type. The primary cure rate of extended local excision was 89% (17/19). There were two cases recurred during follow-up period, and were cured by second surgical treatment and the focuses of recurrence site were still diagnosed as warty type VIN. Conclusions The patients with former diagnosis of VIN Ⅱ , VIN Ⅱ-Ⅲ, VINⅢ, Bowen disease and Bowenoid papulosis are basically reclassified as usual type VIN (warty type) according to the 2004 modified terminology of ISSVD. The results showed that the diagnosis of VIN could be simplified by new terminology. The surgical excision is the good choice and combined cytologic and human papillomavims (HPV) test during follow up is also important for patients of VIN.

This study was to investigate the diagnosis value of simplified uredynsmic test in stress urinary incontinence. Fifty patients with stress test-confirmed urine incontinence underwent simplified urodynamic test before routine urodynamic test. Detrusor instability, max bladder volume, average flow rate, and residual urine of simple urodynamic test were compared. Simplified urodynamic test showed a sensitivity of 87%, specificity of 9/12, positive predictive value of 92%, and negative predictive value of 9/14. There was no significant difference in max bladder volume, average flow rate, and residual urine between the two tests. Simplified urodynamic test might be a reliable method for diagnosis of stress urinary incontinence, and could be used for detrnsor instability screening.
