Objective:To evaluate the improvement of pereutaneous epididymal sperm aspiration(PESA)and testicular sperm extraction(TESE) and the therapy value in the diagnosis and treatment of azoospermia. Methods:We examined 218 azoospermia patients by the techniques of PESA and TESE.Results:Of the total number of the azoospermia patients,94(43.12%)had sperm in the epididymis and 28(12.84%)in the testis.Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) was applied to 16 patients with sperm in the epididymis or testis after sperm extraction.The pregnancy rate after the embryo transfer was 37.5%. Conclusion:The improvement of the PESA and TESE can provide safer chances of procreation to azoospermia patients with partial obstruction and effective therapies for azoospermia.

Objective To study the relationship between sperm activity and the level of L-carnitine in seminal plasma of patients with idiopathic asthenospermia by HPLC.Methods Experimental group:idiopathic asthenospermia 50 cases,and the control group:male with pregnancy history 10 cases.The semen parameters (volume,sperm density,viability,motility),and L-carnitine level in seminal plasma were detected with high performance liquid chromatography method.Results There were significant difference between A and B group about sperm density and the percentage of progressive motile spermatozoa,and the level of L-carnitine(P＜0.01).Conclusions The decrease of L-carnitine level in patients with idiopathic asthenospermia,is closely related to the low sperm motility,which shows that L-carnitine can be used to treat idiopathic asthenospermia effectively.

To improve the class effectiveness,different teaching methods were chosen based on the characteristics of pharmacy students,such as to stimulate the students’ interest,raise the independently ability,design the appropriate multimedia content and practice.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of 4 polar parts extracts from Li medicine Alpinia oxyphylla fruit on model mice with experimental colitis,and screen the effective parts of A. oxyphylla fruit in the treatment of colitis. METHODS:After 70% ethanol extract dispersed by water,petroleum ether,trichloromethane,ethyl acetate and n-butanol were used in turn to obtain extractions in related parts. 42 mice were randomly divided into modeling group(36 mice)and blank group(6 mice). Mice in mod-eling group were taken 2,4,6-nitrobenzne sulfonic acid method to replicate the experiment colitis. After modeling,model mice were randomly divided into model group,positive group(Sulfasalazine enteric coated tablets,52 g/kg),petroleum ether,trichloro-methane,ethyl acetate,n-butanol extract from A. oxyphylla fruit groups(10 g/kg,calculated by crude drug),6 in each group,in-tragastrically administrated once a day,for 9 d,0.2 mL/10 g;mice in blank group and model group were intragastrically given nor-mal saline. After administration,body mass of mice was determined,disease activity index(DAI)was scored and colonic myelo-peroxidase(MPO),superoxide dismutase(SOD),malondialdehyde(MDA)activities in colon tissue were detected,and the colon pathological changes were observed and scored. RESULTS:Compared with blank group,decrease percentage of body mass,DAI score,MPO and MDA activities in colon tissue in model group were increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01);colon tissue was pathologi-cally changed. Compared with model group,body mass was increased,DAI score,MPO activity and pathological score in each ad-ministration groups were decreased;SOD activities in positive group,n-butanol extract from A. oxyphylla fruit group and ethyl ace-tate extract from A. oxyphylla fruit group were significantly increased,MDA activities in positive group and ethyl acetate extract from A. oxyphylla fruit group were significantly decreased,with statistical significances (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:The 4 polar parts extracs from A. oxyphylla fruit have certain improvement effects on model mice with experimental colitis, in which ethyl acetate and n-butanol parts are preferred.
