Objective:To investigate the influential factors correlated to bone mineral density(BMD) in the lumbar vertebra of postmenopausal females,and to find out the influence of body mass and menostasis time on BMD. Methods: BMD in the frontal and lateral lumbar vertebrae of postmenopausal females were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry(DXA).The correlations of BMD to age,body height,body mass,body mass index(BMI),menopausal age,and/or menopausal years were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS10.0. Results:The change of BMD in the frontal lumbar vertebra was positive to body mass but negatively with postmenopausal years,and that in the lateral lumbar vertebra was closely correlated to BMI. Conclusion: Bone mineral density decreases with increase of menostasis time.Females with a high body mass numerical value have higher bone mineral density.

Objective To analyze the clinicopathological characteristics of patients with gastrointestinal malignant tumor in some parts of Hainan province and alien patients outside of Hainan province. Methods Three hundred and fifteen patients who were diagnosed by pathological confirmation were selected in Hainan Branch of PLA General Hospital from Jun 2012 to June 2016, clinicopathological parameters including age, gender, tumor location, cancer cell differentiation, body mass index (BMI), body surface area (BSA), value of preoperative tumor markers, TNM stages, microsatellite state, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her-2) staining, Ki-67 index and risk factors were collected and compared between local and alien patients. Results In contrast with patients outside of Hainan province, a significant lesser BMI [colorectal cancer: (23 ± 3) kg/m2 vs. (24 ± 4) kg/m2, t=-3.69, P< 0.05; gastric cancer: (21.50 ± 3.15) kg/m2 vs. (23.00 ± 3.61) kg/m2, t=-2.11, P=0.04] and BSA [colorectal cancer:[(1.73 ± 0.18) m2 vs. (1.82 ± 0.18) m2, t=-3.46, P<0.05;gastric cancer:(1.73 ± 0.16) m2 vs. (1.81 ± 0.18) m2, t=-2.09, P=0.04] were found in local patients. Local patients with colorectal cancer were much more younger [(57 ± 13) years old vs. (62 ± 13) years old, t=-2.30, P=0.02], with corresponding elevated positive rate of preoperative CEA (χ2=4.56, P= 0.03), T stages (χ2 = 8.31, P= 0.04) and TNM stages (χ2= 11.19, P= 0.01), however, no such difference was detected in gastric cancer patients (all P>0.05). Conclusions Patients with gastrointestinal cancer in some parts of Hainan province, in particular, colorectal cancer patients, present some exceptional clinicopathological features, which are marked by younger age at diagnosis, low level of BMI and BSA. In addition, preoperative level of CEA would be of important for these patients.

Objective To compare RNA interference (RNAi) with imatinib in killing K562 cells. Methods Design effective shRNA sequences special for bcr-abl silencing and insert them into the eukaryotic expression vector for RNAi by gene engineering. The recombinant plasmi(ts were then transfected into K562 cells. 48 hours later, the efficiency of transfection was identified by fluorescent microscope, bcr-abl mRNA level was detected by RT-PCR. Another group of K562 cells were treated respectively by imatinib with different concentration. All groups of K562 cells were finally analyzed in apoptosis, cell proliferation and phosphotyrosine-containing proteins. Results Both RNAi and imatinib induced apoptosis, decreased proliferation and reduced phosphotyrosine-containing proteins. Conclusion BNAi can kill K562 cells successfully as imatinib, and it may be a promising way to treat CML patients in clinic, especially for those who fail in imatinib or other chemotherapy.

Objective To study effect of drug treatment in polycystic ovary syndrome patients withhyperprolactinemia.Methods We retrospectively studied 63 women with polycystic ovary syndrome and hyperprolactinemia from the Reproductive Medicine Center,Provincial Hospital between January 2005 andMarch 2007.According to the beginning time of bromocriptine,all women were divided into two groups.Group Ⅰ was composed of 48 cases who received bromocriptine administration before induction of ovulation cycles,and the dose of bromocriptine was modulated depending on the level of serum prolactin.When serum prolactin was controlled at normal levels,we decreased the dosage of bromocriptine step by step(1.25 mgonce),and then continued the treatment at maintenance dosage for no less than 3 weeks.After a baselineultrasonographic examination on day 3,patients were treated with clomiphene citrate at a dosage of 100 mg (2 tablets/day)for 5 days of a normal cycle or progesterone-induced bleeding.On day 9,we monitored the growth conditions of follicles routinely with trans-vaginal uhrasound.If there was no dominant follicle,we added human menopausal hormone(hMG,75 U/d)to the protocol.Human chorionic gonadotropin(hCG,6000-10000 IU)was given intramuscularly when the mean diameter of a follicle reached at least 18 mm.At the same time we instructed the patients to have sexual intercourses or carried out artificial inseminationsbefore and after ovulation.Group Ⅱ were 15 cases in which induction of ovulations were commenced almostsimultaneously with beginning of bromocriptine.The same protocol was given to patients in group Ⅱ.The procedures of ovulation induction and the outcomes of treatment were analyzed and compared.Results Compared with groupⅡ.the days of using hMG in Group Ⅰ was shorter by instructing the time of sexualintercourse.The difference was significant(P=0.004).And there were similar results in the artificial insemination cycles(P=0.009).The rate of pregnancy in group Ⅰ(40%,19/48)was higher than that in groupⅡ(27%,4/15),but the difference was not obvious(P=0.525).Conclusion Bromocriptine administration before the stimulated ovulation therapy can decrease the total dosage and treatment course of ovulating drugs.Induction of ovulations simultaneously with start of bromocriptine therapy can shorten the treatment time of infertility.
