Objective To obtain the fatal aortic isthmic systolic index(ISI)with prenatal ultrasound,and to establish reference ranges for normal live fatal aortic isthmic systolic index(ISI). Methods A total of 251 normal fetuses at 18?37 gestation weeks were collected and underwent Dop?pler ultrasound examination to obtain the fatal aortic isthmus waveforms. Peak systolic velocity(PSV)and systolic nadir(NS)were measured on the waveforms. ISI was derived from the ratio NS/PSV,and its relationship with gestational weeks was analyzed. Results ISI value was between 0.19 and 0.21,from 18 to 24 gestational weeks. As the gestational weeks increasing,PSV increased;however,NS decreased gradually. At about 28 weeks,a brief end?systolic deceleration wave was observed on the aortic isthmus waveforms,and this trend led to ISI towards a mean value of zero at about 30 weeks. At the end of pregnancy,ISI was about-0.33. The curve equations were established regarding the gestational age as the independent variable X,PSV,NS and ISI as the dependent variable Y respectively. Y∧=-69.116+9.542X-0.139X2,R2=0.96,P<0.001;Y∧=-99.881+10.331X-0.232X2,R2=0.99,P<0.001;Y∧=-0.671+0.086X-0.02X2,R2=0.99,P<0.001. Conclusion Prenatal ultrasound can measure the fetal aortic isthmic systolic index,which is helpful in the diagnosis of fetal cardiovascular anomalies and evaluation of fetal intrauterine status.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of STAT5 pathway inhibitor pimozide on the expressions of nitric oxide (NO)and nitric oxide synthetase(iNOS)in the model of mouse macrophage RAW264.7 inflammation induced by lipopolysaccha-ride (LPS). METHODS:RAW264.7 cells in logarithmic growth phase were divided into blank control group,drug control group (10μmol/L pimozide),model group(1μg/ml LPS)and the pimozide groups of low,middle and high doses(2.5,5 and 10μmol/L), where the corresponding cells were given pimozide 30 min before the administration of LPS,and then were cultured for 24 h. Griess method was used to determine the content of NO in the supernate of cell culture solutions of all groups,real-time quantita-tive polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)to determine iNOS mRNA expression,and Western blot method to determine the protein expression of iNOS and phosphorylated STAT5(p-STAT5). RESULTS:The content of NO,iNOS mRNA and protein expressions and the content of p-STAT5/STAT5 in the cells in the model group were higher than those in the blank control group,with statisti-cally difference (P<0.01). Compared to the model group,the pimozide groups of middle and high doses had lower content of NO,iNOS mRNA and protein expressions and the content of p-STAT5/STAT5 in the cells,with statistically difference(P<0.01 or P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:STAT5 pathway inhibitor pimozide can inhibit the release of NO by inhibiting iNOS mRNA and pro-tein expressions in cells.

Non-surgical therapy is important to liver cancer treatment. Actinotheraphy and chemotherapy, because of their less specific for cancer tissue and serious side effect, badly affect the patients' life qualities, sometimes even endanger the patients lives. Hepatocellular carcinoma specific antibodies have been the focus of liver cancer biotherapy. After 20 years of study since 1975, it has been demonstrated that antibodies derived from mouse could not efficiently stimulate the functions of human reactor, but could induce human anti-mouse antibody responses which could bring about serious side effects. The application of DNA recombination technique provides a good method for resolving the immune selection problem. The techniques of humanoriginated antibodies and phage displaying will lead to development of innovative strategies to manage liver cancer. In our country, the antibody products aimed at cancer all originated from mouse while the study of human antibodies is still at its primary stage. Non-human antibodies has been forbidden in clinical trails by FDA in America since 2001. It can be speculated that human antibody products will domminate the future market rapidly.

Objective To study the correlation between the fetal liver volume and gestational age by three-dimensional ultrasound,and to evaluate its clinical significance.Methods Fetal liver volume from 173 normal fetuses,ranging between 22～39 weeks old,was individually measured by three dimensional ultrasound.Results ① The reproducibility of fetal liver volume measurement by three-dimensional ultrasound was well.② The relationship between fetal liver volume and gestational age was linear(r= 0.93,P

Objective To better understand the relationship between the maximum tumor diameter and the most distant micrometastases in different types of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and to provide histological evidence for the delineation of clinical target volume (CTV) from gross tumor volume.Methods We retrospectively studied the pathological specimens from 113 surgically treated NSCLC patients (44 squamous cell carcinoma patients and 69 adenocarcinoma patients) who were admitted to our hospital from 2014 to 2015.The maximum tumor diameter was determined by a combination of gross and microscopic measurements.Micrometastases were microscopically determined.The distances between the tumor edges and micrometastases outside the tumor boundaries were measured by an ocular micrometer followed by a calculation.Quantitative data were analyzed by t test, and qualitative data were analyzed by logistic regression.Results The regression relationship between the maximum tumor diameter and micrometastases was significant in the adenocarcinoma group, but not significant in the squamous cell carcinoma group (P=0.151).The association between the presence or absence of lymph node metastasis and the most distant micrometastasis was significant in the adenocarcinoma group, but not significant in the squamous cell carcinoma group (P=0.597).No association between the degree of tumor differentiation and the most distant micrometastasis was observed in either group (P=0.113).The average measurement of the most distant micrometastases was 2.94 mm in the adenocarcinoma group, with 7.5 mm as the distance to cover 95% of the most distant micrometastases.To reach the same coverage, 4 mm was needed for tumor size smaller than 3 cm, 6 mm for those between 3 cm and 5 cm, and 7.5 mm for those larger than 5 cm.The average measurement of the most distant micrometastases was 2.69 mm in the squamous cell carcinoma group, with 6 mm as the distance to cover 95% of the most distant micrometastases.Conclusions For NSCLC, the most distant micrometastasis of adenocarcinoma is associated with the maximum tumor diameter and presence or absence of lymph node metastasis, and the CTV should thus be adjusted accordingly;no relevance between the most distant micrometastasis and maximum tumor diameter is observed in squamous cell carcinoma;there is no relationship between the most distant micrometastasis and the degree of tumor differentiation in adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of oral use and acupoint application of Chinese herbal medicine with the actions of strengthening spleen and regulating stomach, lowering rebellious Qi to stop vomiting in treating pregnant pernicious vomiting. Methods One hundred and twenty-two spleen-stomach deficiency pregnant pernicious vomiting cases were randomly divided into observation group ( N=63) and control group (N=59). At the end of the trial, 2 cases of the control group dropped out, and the total case number was 57 in the control group. Both groups were treated with intravenous infusion, dietary care, daily life and emotional nursing, and oral use of Chinese herbal medicine with the actions of strengthening spleen and regulating stomach, lowering rebellious Qi to stop vomiting. Additionally, the observation group was given acupoint application of herbs for strengthening spleen and regulating stomach, lowering rebellious Qi to stop vomiting. The treatment was performed once a day, 4 days constituted one treatment course, and the treatment lasted two continuous courses. The improvement of vomiting, therapeutic effect and the safety were compared between the two groups after treatment. Results ( 1) The total effective rate was 96.8%in the observation group and was 71.9%in the control group, the difference being significant (P<0.01). (2) The time for stopping vomiting in the observation group was significantly less than that in control group (P<0.01). (3) During the treatment, no obvious adverse reaction was found in the two groups. Conclusion Acupoint application of herbs for strengthening spleen and regulating stomach, lowering rebellious Qi to stop vomiting has obvious synergistic effect on the clinical efficiency of spleen-stomach deficiency pregnant pernicious vomiting treated by oral use of herbal medicine, intravenous infusion, dietary care, and daily life and emotional nursing.

Objective To explore the value of evaluating rat liver fibrosis using contrast enhanced sonography.Methods Carbon tetrachloride was used to induce liver fibrosis.Under the mode of pulse-inversion harmonic imaging,ultrasound contrast agent was bolus iniected through tail vein,hepatic artery arrival time(HAAT),portal vein arrival time(PVAT),hepatic vein arrival time(HVAT)was recorded,and their relationship with immunohistochemical results were analyzed.Results There was no statistical difference of HAAT,PVAT between two groups among S0-S4 stage.HVAT was shorter in S3 and S4 stage than in S0-S2 stage(P＜0.05).HVAT was negative correlated with the percentage of immunohistochemical positive area of C-Ⅳ,LN,the correlation coefficients were-0.680 and -0.639 respectively.Conclusions Contrast enhanced sonography is useful for the diagnosing liver fibrosis.
