Objective To explore the association between epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness and left ventricular remodeling,left ventricular dysfunction in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).Methods One hundred and sixteen patients with DCM (DCM group) and 76 healthy subjects (control group) were examined by ultrasoundcardiogram.Left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD),left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV),left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV),left ventricular end-systolic volume index (LVESVI),left ventficular end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVI),left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and EAT thickness were measured or calculated,and the relationship was evaluated.Results EAT thickness in DCM group was significantly lower than that in control group [(4.7 ± 1.2) mm vs.(7.6 ± 2.1) mm],and there was statistical difference (P ＜ 0.05).The linear correlation analysis results showed there was positive correlation between EAT thickness and LVESD,LVEDD,LVESV,LVEDV,LVEDVI,LVESVI (r =0.236,0.220,0.245,0.256,0.282,0.279,P ＜ 0.05),and there was no relationship between EAT thickness and LVEF (r =0.134,P ＞0.05).Conclusions In patients with DCM,there is a correlation between EAT thickness and ventricular remodeling.There is no correlation between EAT thickness and left ventricular dysfunction.

Radiotherapy is an important treatment for malignant tumors, but it will have a negative impact on the reproductive function of young female patients.In recent years, the measures to protect female fertility are increasing, including clinical mature technologies such as embryo cryopreservation and mature oocyte cryopreservation; highly experimental technologies such as immature oocyte in vitro fertilization and ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation.In addition, the application of stem cells and the proposal of artificial ovary also show great prospects in the protection of female fertility.This paper reviews the research progress of female fertility protection strategies in radiotherapy.

OBJECTIVE:To optimize the processing technology of nine steaming nine drying of Rehmannia glutinosa. METH-ODS:L9(34) orthogonal experimental design was adopted to investigate the effects of the amount of added wine,steaming time and drying way on processing technology using the content and property of 5-hydroxymethyl furfural,acteoside,reducing sugar wa-ter extract,and character score as indexes. Comprehensive balance method was used for result evaluation,and optimized technolo-gy was validated. RESULTS:The optimized processing condition was as follows as the amount of added yellow wine 40%,steam-ing for 9 times,lasting for 6 h each time,blast drying at 70 ℃. Average value of each factor in validation test was 4.030 mg/g, 0.117 mg/g,0.376 7 g/g,0.733 g/g and 9.0 points,respectively. Their RSDs were 1.78%,2.9%,1.54%,2.13% and 0.1%(n=3). CONCLUSIONS:Optimized technology is reasonable and controllable in product quality,and can provide reference for quality control study of nine steaming nine drying of R. glutinosa.

Objective:To study the insulin resistance and leptin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods:Body mass index(BMI),serum leptin,fasting blood glucose(FBG),fasting insulin(FINS),serum triglyceride,total cholesterol,high-density lipoprotein,low-density lipoprotein and insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR) were assessed in 30 normal women,30 simple obesity women and 41 PCOS women.Results:①The PCOS patients showed higher levels of BMI,serum leptin,FINS,HOMA-IR and low-density lipoprotein,and lower levels of high-density lipoprotein than that in normal control.Compared to simple obesity women,there only showed higher FINS level and lower BMI in PCOS women.②Serum leptin levels in PCOS patients were concerned with BMI、FINS、HOMA-IR and serum triglyceride levels.③There were no significant difference of the FINS and HOMA-IR between normal women and non obese PCOS women,but the obese PCOS women showed higher levels of FINS and HOMA-IR than that in simple obesity women;the serum leptin levels showed no significant difference between normal women and non-obese PCOS women,simple obesity women and obese PCOS women. Conclusion:PCOS patients may have insulin resistance and leptin resistance;There may have regulative effect between leptin resistance and insulin resistance in PCOS patients;There are direct relationship between insulin resistance and PCOS;The rise of serum leptin level in PCOS women may be the assident manifestation of obesity.
