Objective This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of maternal death cases, the cause of maternal death and the cause of medical dispute,and recommended the relative prevention measures. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 35 cases of maternal death identified in the College of Forensic Medicine in Kunming Medical University from January 2002 to December 2012. Results In 35 maternal death cases: (1) Most maternal deaths are over 30 years old (14 cases, 40%), followed by 17 to 19 years old (6 cases, 17.1%) . And most maternal deaths came from countryside (25 cases,71.4%) . (2) 26 cases maternal deaths happened during the perinatal period (68.5%) . (3) 26 cases happened in county hospitals, township hospitals and informal medical organizations (74.3%) . 5 maternal deaths happened on the way to the hospital or at home (14.3%) . (4) 17 cases died of obstetric hemorrhagic shock (48.6%), 11 cases died of amniotic fluid embolism (31.4%), 2 cases died of amniotic fluid embolism and obstetric hemorrhagic shock (5.7%) . (5) 30 cases of medical disputes were caused by maternal death. Among them, the clinical diagnosis was not consistent with the pathological diagnosis in 20 cases (The misdiagnosis rate was 66.7%) . (6) The causes of medical dispute:clinical diagnosis was unknown in 11 cases (36.7%),11 cases were suspected that rescue was not timely or improper (36.7%),and 8 cases were suspected of misdiagnosis (26.6%) . Conclusion Obstetric hemorrhage and pulmonary amniotic fluid embolism were the main reasons of the maternal death. The incidence of maternal death and medical disputes could be reduced by improving the ability of obstetric staff,and strengthening the diagnosis and treatment about obstetric hemorrhage and pulmonary amniotic fluid embolism. At the same time, women should improve their self-care awareness, reduce early marriage and early pregnancy,and enhance the consciousness of hospital treat and cure.

BACKGROUND: Cytogenetic evidence suggests that chromosomal alteration are not randomly occurring events and some malignancies are characterized by specific chromosome abnormalities, which provides cytogenetic basis for the expression of oncogenes.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the characteristics of chromosomal karyotype and marker chromosome of breast cancer cell lines Bcap-37and MCF-7 by means of G-banding chromosomal analysis.DESIGN: A controlled experiment with breast cancer cells as observation subjects.SETTING: Department of Medical Genetics, Peking University Health Science Center.MATERIALS: This study was carried out in the Department of Medical Genetics of Peking University Health Science Center from April 1991 to May 1992 using breast cancer cell lines MCF-7 and Bcap-37.METHODS: The chromosomes of human breast cancer cell lines Bcap-37and MCF-7 were obtained by growth synchronization induced by hypothermia and colchicines treatment. The cells at prometaphase or metaphase underwent G-banding chromosomal analysis. For each cell line, 50 to 60 mitotic figures were counted and 15 or 16 G-binding karyotypes were analyzed, including the mitotic figure at the level of about 320- and 500-band .MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Abnormality in chromosome number and structural aberration of the two breast cancer cell lines.RESULTS:The modal chromosomal number of Bcap-37 cell line was 63, of which 17 marker chromosomes had identifiable structure, as compared with 13 out of 56 chromosomes in modal number of MCF-7 cell line.CONCLUSION: Both of the two breast cancer cell lines have complex cytogenetic abnormality in the modal number and structure of the chromosomes, which might result in the rearrangement of DNA sequence of the cancer-related genes or DNA depletion, so as to play important roles in the pathogenesis and development of breast cancer.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Compound Yihe Tea on improving insulin resistance in obesity mice. Thirty-two male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into 4 groups: the normal fat diet group(NFD group), high fat diet group(HFD group), Compound Yihe Tea low dosage group［20 mg/(kg ·d), YH-L group］ and high dosage group［40 mg/(kg ·d), YH-H group］. NFD group was given standard feed, and the remaining mice were administered with high fat diet. After 6 weeks, YH-H and YH-L groups were given Compound Yihe Tea for 6 weeks. Blood glucose was measured at week 11 and serum levels of total cholesterol(TC), serum triglyceride(TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)were measured at week 12. Liver tissues were prepared for oil red O and HE staining. Immunohistochemical analysis was used to test the protein expression of GLUT4 in liver. Protein expressions of PI3K, Akt and GLUT4 in epididymis white adipose tissue(WAT)were tested by Western blot. The results showed that Compound Yihe Tea could effectively reduce body weights and the serum levels of TC, TG and LDL-C. Furthermore Compound Yihe Tea could improve the histopathological changes of liver, up-regulate the protein expression of PI3K, Akt and GLUT4 in epididymis WAT and the protein expression of GLUT4 in liver. Compound Yihe Tea can reduce the fat accumulation in liver tissue, improve the indexes of blood glucose and lipid levels, and improve insulin resistance via PI3K-AKT-GLUT4 pathway.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of bisphenol A (BPA) on the differentiation potential of embryonic stem cells, and provide an experimental basis for evaluation of safety of BPA. METHODS Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) and embryonic stem cells (ESCs) were treated with BPA 0.1, 1, 10, 100 and 1000 μmol.L-1 for 8 d respectively. The viability of MEFs and ESCs was measured by CCK-8 and lC50 was calculated. The mRNA expression of α-myosin heavy chain in ESCs was tested by RT-PCR to determine lD50 . The embryonic body cultured by suspension method was treated with BPA 0.001, 0.01, 0.1 and 1 μmol.L-1 for 10 d respectively. The changes of marked genes in each blastoderm were detected by RT-PCR. RESULTS lC50 of BPA to mouse ESCs was 5.22×10-4 mol.L-1 , and to MEFs was 6. 25 × 10-4 mol.L-1 . lD50 of BPA to mouse ESCs differentiating to cardiomyocytes was 7.0×10-7 mol.L-1 . BPA 0.001 and 0.01 μmol.L-1 upregulated the expression of the marked genes of mesoderm, fetal liver kinase-1 and globin transcription factor 1. CONCLUSION BPA is a strong embry-otoxic compound. BPA of low concentration can promote the differentiation of mouse ESCs to mesoderm.
