Objective To investigate the possible role of nerve growth factors (NGF) and its receptors in ovarian follicle development,and detect the difference between polycystic ovarian symdrome (PCOS) and normal control.Methods Immunohistochemisty was applied to detect the expression of NGF,p75NTR,TrkA in ovarian follicle granulosa cells.Results In 54 cases (including 9 cases of IVM-PCOS,16 cases of IVF-PCOS and 29 cases of IVF-Normal),49 cases showed NGF protein positive in granulose cells with significance difference between groups (P＜0.05),and especially NGF was the strongest expressed factor in IVF-PCOS group but there was no remarkable difference between the other two groups in the expression of NGF.41 were TrkA protein positive,almost all IVF cases were TrkA protein positive while only 2 in IVM and there was no remarkable difference in expression of TrkA between IVF PCOS and IVF Normal(P＞0.05).The cases with stronger expression of NGF or TrkA had higher estradiol level than that of lower expression group (P＜0.05).51 cases had positive expression of p75 NTR protein but there was no significant difference between groups (P＞0.05).Conclusions TrkA is expressed in mature ovarian follicle,and the interaction of NGF-TrkA may be involved in ovarian follicle development,and overexpression of NGF may be associated with PCOS development.

Aim To introduce an improved method of Langendorff perfusion of the isolated rat heart that is easy to determine the termination of digestion.Methods Hearts were excised quickly from anesthetized SD rats.After the perfusate was free of blood,the solution was changed to perfusion buffer(0.6% Collagenase B,0.6% BSA,30 ?mol?L-1 Ca2+ in Tyrode solution)at 37℃.Hearts were isolated by traditional and improved Langendorff perfusion.Individual myocardial cell was measured by video-based motion edge-detection system(IonOptix,USA).Results One group of heart was digested by traditional Langendorff perfusion for 13~16 min.The termination of digestion could not be judged properly by this method.The nature and quality of the cardiocytes were various.The cardiocytes could not keep their survival and viability when exposed to Tyrode Solution with 1.8 mmol?L-1 Ca2+.Another group was digested by improved Langendorff perfusion.More than 80% survival cardiac ventricle myocytes could be obtained by improved Langendorff perfusion.Moreover,about 50% cardiac myocytes exposed to Tyrode solution with 1.8 mmol?L-1 Ca2+ could retain rod-shaped and be used to contraction research.The contraction of cardiocyte was stabile within 1 000 s.Conclusion Cardiac myocytes disassociated from improved Langendorff perfusion can be used in these studies of detecting contraction and relaxation.This method is economical and easy to control.The beginners are able to acquire the technological method over a short-term practice.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the efficacy and safety of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)in-hibitors in the treatment of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP),and provide evidence-based reference for clinic. METHODS:Re-trieved from PubMed,EMBase,Cochrane Library,CJFD,VIP,CBM and Wangfang Database,randomized controlled trials (RCT) about VEGF inhibitors (test group) versus laser photocoagulation treatment (control group) in the treatment of ROP were collected. Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.1 software after data extraction and quality evaluation by Cochrane re-viewers manual 5.1.0. RESULTS:Totally 5 RCTs were included,involving 381 infants and 754 eyes.Results of Meta-analysis showed that the recurrence rate of ROP [RR=0.23,95%CI(0.13,0.42),P<0.001],retinal detachment incidence [RR=0.27,95%CI(0.14,0.51),P<0.001] andresolution of plus signs [MD=-1.31,95%CI(-1.47,-1.14),P<0.001] in test group were signifi-cantly lower than control group,the differences were statistically significant;and there was no significant difference in the refrac-tive errors and the incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Intravitreal VEGF inhibitors have better efficacy than laser photocoagulation in the treatment of ROP,but the optimal dose and safety need further verification by large-sam-ple and well-designed RCT.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of early rehabilitation on motor function, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-1（IL-1） and interleukin-6（IL-6） in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI). Methods160 patients with ACI were randomly divided into rehabilitation group (n=80) and control group (n=80), who accepted early rehabilitation and routine medicine or medicine only, respectively. They were assessed with modified Edinburgh-Scandinavian Stroke Scale (MESSS) and their peripheral level of hs-CRP, IL-1 and IL-6 were detected before and 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks after treatment. Results4 and 8 weeks after treatment, the level of hs-CRP, IL-1 and IL-6 were lower in rehabilitation group than in control group（P＜0.05）, as well as the scores of the MESSS （P＜0.01）. The incidence of improvement is more in rehabilitation group than in control group（P＜0.05）. ConclusionEarly rehabilitation can reduce the expression of hs-CRP, IL-1 and IL-6, and improve the neurological function in patients with ACI.

Premium healthcare is the key area of healthcare industry and private medical institutions. Howev-er, with the expansion of VIP services in public hospitals and policy barriers to private medical institutions, the de-velopment of premium healthcare in China is still in its early stage. The premium healthcare industry has in fact be-gun to take shape in some developed countries, accumulating rich experience in the aspects of developing bases, op-erating modes and security systems. Therefore, this paper introduces the experiences of premium healthcare develop-ment in several countries:the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany, Singapore, Australia, and India: the building of safety net hospitals;the setting of hierarchical pricing and differential financial assistance;the use of pub-lic-private partnership based on commercial health insurance to determine prioritization. Based on the actual situation in China, this paper provides some implications to develop premium healthcare, including the implementation of dif-ferential payment policies built on the provision of basic healthcare services, the promotion of commercial health in-surance and public-private partnerships, and the determination of preferential areas.

Premium healthcare is one of the major components of private healthcare, a key part of the health service industry, and one of the significant areas of the Thirteenth Five-Year Plan of health. However, there is no clear definition of premium healthcare that is widely accepted based on a Chinese literature review, and to define the concept of premium healthcare is the basis and premise for research. This paper adopted the methods of systematic re-view, field investigation and key person interviews to clarify the definition of premium healthcare and the results sug-gested that areas of health management, medical care for the elderly, mobile medical care, and so on should be the priorities of premium healthcare development.

Objective:To analyze status quo and trends of VIP services in the tertiary public hospitals of Shang-hai and provide references for health administrative departments. Methods:Health policies of VIP services in tertiary public hospitals were searched and analyzed, and the number of medical institutions, services, prices and service fees were analyzed from 2011 to 2013 . Results:There is a clear demand for VIP services in the tertiary public hospi-tals of Shanghai, and fees for rooms, nursing, and examinations for outpatient and inpatient care are decided by the hospitals. 89. 7% of the tertiary public hospitals in Shanghai offered VIP services, and the trend was steadily grow-ing. The four services that could be decided by hospitals varied greatly, and the service fees for inpatient care in-creased significantly. The total cost of VIP services in the tertiary public hospitals of Shanghai accounted 6. 2% of all costs, and the percentage of income from drugs was lower. Conclusions:VIP services in public hospitals have a his-torical necessity;management should be strengthened in the short term;public hospitals should strengthen their own management and provide VIP services regularly, and health administration departments should strengthen regulation. In the long run, it is suggested that public hospitals should draw lessons from international experiences to form a pat-tern of multi-level medical services and actively carry out cooperation with private medical institutions.

Objective:To study status quo of premium private health services and analyze the trend of its devel-opment. Method:The scope of premium private medical institutions was first defined. Then, seven indicators were used to analyze the allocation of resources;two indicators were used to analyze services;eight indicators were used to analyze costs. The entire situation of different styles of institutions through 2011 to 2013 was compared. Results:The results indicated that in the allocation of resources, the current level of premium private medical institutions is not high enough;large-scale construction is still at its early stages;and the medical personnel structure is not reasonable enough;as for service quantity, the total growth rate of premium private medical institutions is high but the service quantity is still far below that of the VIP services in public hospitals;as for medical expenses, premium private medi-cal institutions are charging high service fees, and the internal structure of the expenses is reasonable. Conclusions:Although the development of premium private health services is at an early stage, development prospects are promis-ing. Premium private health services should strengthen the aspects of medical technology, service levels, management capabilities, human resource building, and brand development.

Objective:To evaluate the value of conventional ultrasound, shear wave elastic parameters and immunohistochemistry in predicting axillary lymph node metastasis of breast cancer.Methods:The ultrasonographic features and pathological results of 172 masses in 152 breast cancer patients who underwent surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Shihezi University Medical College from May to October 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into metastatic group and non-metastatic group according to the status of axillary lymph nodes. The conventional ultrasound characteristics, shear wave velocity (SWV) and immunohistochemical indexes (ER, PR, HER-2, Ki-67) of 2 groups of breast cancer masses were analyzed. Finally, the parameters with statistically significant difference between groups were selected and the Logistic regression model was established.Results:There were significant differences in the aspect ratio, calcification, SWVmean and HER-2 expression between metastatic group and non-metastatic group (all P<0.05). A prediction model was constructed with aspect ratio >1, calcification, high SWVmean and HER-2(+ ). The area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of the subjects was 0.891, which was larger than the single parameter (all P<0.05), and was in good agreement with pathological results (Kappa=0.731). Conclusions:The joint prediction model can be used to predict the status of lymph nodes, and the axillary lymph node metastasis is more likely to occur in breast cancer with the aspect ratio >1, calcification, high SWVmean and HER-2(+ ).

Purpose To establish a nomogram based on conventional ultrasound combined with contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS)for predicting the probability of cervical central lymph node metastasis(CLNM)in clinical lymph node-negative(CN0)papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC)patients.Materials and Methods A retrospective study was performed on 359 patients with single CN0 PTC,all of whom underwent thyroid surgery and prophylactic central compartment neck dissection in the First Affiliated Hospital of Shihezi University from September 2015 to March 2022.According to the postoperative pathological results,there were 116 cases with CLNM(+)and other 243 cases with CLNM(-).The indicators of gender,age,conventional ultrasound and CEUS were recorded,and multivariate stepwise Logistic regression was performed to screen out risk predictors to construct prediction models for CLNM in CN0 PTC.The receiver operating characteristic curves of prediction models were drawn,and the area under the curve(AUC)was further compared.The preferable prediction model was selected to establish the risk probability nomogram,and the prediction performance and clinical applicability of the nomogram model were assessed.Results Multivariate analysis showed that gender,age,the maximum diameter of nodule,capsule invasion and enhancement pattern on CEUS were risk factors for CLNM in CN0 PTC(all P<0.05).The AUC of prediction model 1 including the above five indicators was 0.753,and the AUC of prediction model 2 excluding CEUS indicator was 0.704.There were statistically significant difference in AUCs between the two models(Z=2.473,P=0.013).Prediction model 1 was selected to construct a risk probability nomogram for predicting CLNM in CN0 PTC.The nomogram had a C-index of 0.753 and showed well consistency on the calibration curve.Clinical decision curve analysis indicated that the nomogram could achieve ideal net benefit when the threshold probability was between 10.7%to 81.5%.Conclusion Gender,age,the maximum diameter of nodule,capsule invasion and enhancement pattern on CEUS may be the risk predictors for CLNM in CN0 PTC.The nomogram model based on the above indicators can predict the probability of CLNM effectively,and the CEUS indicators can substantially improve the prediction performance of the model.
