Objective To investigate the clinical and pathological features of adult form nemaline myopathy. Methods Biopsied muscle specimens from two patients were observed using enzymatic histochemical method and electron microscope. Results These two patients were found with an initial onset from neck muscle weakness at the age of 52 and 36 years respectively, followed by trunk and limb muscle involvement to a variant degree. Type Ⅰ fiber atrophy and numerous granules (rod) were found in both patients in light microscopy. In case 1, the centralized nuclei were seen almost in all normal sized muscle fibers. Electron microscopic observation showed marked myofibril disorganization and numerous rod-like formations. Two inclusion-carrying nuclei were detected in case 1. The intranuclear inclusion showed a lattice pattern of Z-disc line or sarcoplasmic rod. Conclusions Adult form nemaline myopathy is clinically nonspecific. Rod-like structures might be found either in sarcoplasma or in nucleus. Centralized nuclei might coexist with rods in adult form nemaline myopathy. As compared to the child form, the adult one might often show a marked muscle fiber atrophy.

Objective The oligomeric and polymeric proanthocyanidins in different fractions from Hippophae rhamnoides seeds were investigated. Methods The monomeric and oligomeric fractions were analyzed by HPLC/ESI-MASS detection. The polymeric proanthocyanidins were fractionated by Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography and their chemical constructures were studied by acid-catalysed degradation in the presence of benzyl mercaptan. Results Four monomers were identified as catechin, epicatechin, gallocatechin, and epigallocatechin. Eight dimers including three dimeric procyanidins and one dimeric prodelphinidin, and four mixed dimers were detected and their structures were partly elucidated by the detection of the pseudomolecular ion and main ion fragmentations. The results also showed that polymers to be highly heterogenous with catechin, epicatechin, gallocatechin, and epigallocatechin all being components of both the extension and the terminal units. The extension units were mainly gallocatechin, whereas the terminal units were mainly gallocatechin and epigallocatechin for all fractions. The proanthocyanidins with a mean degree of polymerization (mDP) of 9.1, 13.2 and 17.0 represented the three major polymeric fractions. Conclusion Proanthocyanidins of H. rhamnoides seeds, predominantly being of prodelphinidin-type, are remarkably different from that of grape seeds.

Objective To investigate the clinical,genetic and pathological features of familial chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO) type of mitochondrial myopathy.Methods Clinical manifestations, family histories and pathological findings of 21 patients with CPEO type of mitochondrial myopathy from 3 families constellations were analyzed retrospectively.Results All the patients had ptosis and movement disorder of eyeball, with or without myasthenia. An autosomal dominant pattern of transmission was deduced from one family and a maternal transmission appeared most likely in the other two families. The striking and common pathologic findings were presence of ragged red fibers and cytochrome C oxidase (COX) deficiency fibers under microscope. Ultrastructural alterations included subsarcolemmal accumulation of mitochondria, increase of mitochondria with abnormal shape, disarrangement of cristae and paracrystaline inclusion bodies.Conclusions The clinical and pathological features between generations and families seem to be similar. It is suggested that different genetic mode of CPEO may lead to similar clinical and pathological features.

ObjectiveTo analyze the craniocerebrum ultrasonographic images of the infants born by women with hypertension in pregnancy and investigate the effect of hypertension in pregnancy on neonate brain injury and brain development.MethodsTo assess the brain injury and brain development, 106 infants born by women with hypertension in pregnancy (study group) and 200 infants born by women without high risk factors during perinatal period (control group) in the neonatal intensive care unit of First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University between 2013 and 2014 underwent brain ultrasonography. The abnormal ultrasound images and the constitution of abnormal ultrasound images distribution in two groups were compared. The relationship between the abnormal ultrasound images and the degree of hypertension in pregnancy were analyzed.ResultsThe brain ultrasonographic result of the infants : (1) In the group with hypertension in pregnancy, the abnormal ultrasound images were found in 78 cases (73.6%). For the preterm infants, the solitary abnormality was found in 41 cases (25 cases of cerebral white matter injury, 14 cases of peri-intraventricular hemorrhage and 2 case of brain hypoevolutism) and multiple abnormalities were found in 15 cases; for the full-term infants, the solitary abnormality was found in 17 cases (12 cases of peri-intraventricular hemorrhage, 3 cases of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and 2 case of brain hypoevolutism) and multiple abnormalities were found in 5 cases. (2) In the group without high risk factors, abnormalities were found in 73 cases (36.5 %). For the preterm infants, abnormal ultrasound images were found in 45 cases, including solitary abnormality found in 30 cases (24 cases of cerebral white matter injury, 4 cases of peri-intraventricular hemorrhage and 2 case of brain hypoevolutism) and multiple abnormalities found in 15 cases; for the full-term infants, the abnormal ultrasound images were found in 30 cases, including solitary abnormality found in 24 cases (10 cases of peri-intraventricular hemorrhage and 14 cases of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy) and multiple abnormalities found in 6 cases. (3) There were obvious statistical significances between the comparativeness of two groups (χ2=38.119,P<0.001), but there were no statistical significances in the constitution of the abnormal ultrasound images distribution between the two groups (χ2=0.552,P=0.759). (4) There were statistical significances between the comparativeness of the abnormal ultrasound images and the degree of hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy (P<0.001). ConclusionCraniocerebrum ultrasonography is the first choice to detect and monitor brain abnormal and can provide basis for clinical diagnosis, treatment and intervention at early stage for the infants born by women with hypertension in pregnancy.
