Objective To evaluate the impact of bilateral ovariectomy in post-menopausal women by comparison of climacteric symptoms before and after operation. Methods Post-menopausal women who received hysterectomy with concurrent bilateral ovariectomy on benign uterine indications were recruited.Climacteric symptoms before and after operation were accessed by a questionaire including modified Kupperman Index.Comparison was made after grouping the patients into early menopause group,whose menopausal period was no more than 5 years,and late menopause group,whose menopausal period was more than 5 years. Results Among a total of 95 individuals,8 had normal,46 had mild,34 had moderatc,and the other 7 had severe Kupperman Index scores before operation,while 5 had normal,28 had mild,48 had moderate,and the other 14 had severe Kupperman Index scores after operation,with more moderate and severe climacteric symptoms after operation than before operation(P<0.05).Women of early menopause group had higher total Kupperman Index scores and symptom scores of sweating,insomnia,depression,fatigue and headache than those of late menopause group before operation(P<0.05).Women of early menopause group had significantly higher Kupperman Index scores after operation than before operation(23.93±7.53 vs 17.63±8.07,P<0.05).However,there was no significant difference in total Kupperman Index scores in women of late menopause group before and after operation. Conclusion Bilateral ovariectomy may affect the climacteric symptoms in post-menopausal women,especially in early menopausal period.

ObjectiveTo investigate the selective mechanism of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)for osteoblast via ERβ. Methods High expression of ERβ in hMG63-ERβ group ( infected with pWPTERβ), gene silencing of ERβ in hMG63-shERβ group (infected with pLVTHM-GFP/ERβ-shRNA) and hMG,63 group (control) were cultured and treated with 1 × 10-7 mol/L DHEA, with or without U0126 and etoposide. The proliferation and apoptosis of hMG63 were evaluated by flow cytometry. The mRNA level of estrogen receptor subtype was detected by reverse transcription-PCR. ResultsThe expression of ERβ in hMG63-ERβ group and hMG63-shERβ group were increased 7. 39 times and decreased 17% compared with that in hMG63 group (control). DHEA could increase ERβ expression in hMG63 in each group, however, it did not influence the expression of ERα mRNA. When the level of ERβ was high, DHEA could accelerate the proliferation [proliferation index were ( 81.6 ± 7.6) % in hMG,63-ERβ, ( 75.0 ± 5.3 ) % in hMG63, P < 0. 05]and inhibit the apoptosis [apoptosis rate were ( 12.2 ± 1.6) % in hMG63-ERβ, ( 14. 6 ± 1.5 ) %in hMG63, P <0. 0 1], which was blocked by U0126 [proliferation index were (33. 2 ± 2. 0)% in hMG63-ERβ, (41.2 ± 2. 4) % in hMG63, apoptosis rate were (40. 5 ± 4. 3 ) % in hMG63-ERβ, (43.3 ± 4. 1 ) %in hMG63, all P <0. 05]. When the expression of ERβ was silenced, DHEA could not inhibit the apoptosis of hMG63 anymore. ConclusionDHEA selectively act on osteoblasts via the dominant expression of ERβ.

Objective To explore the impacts of natural ovulation cycles and stimulation cycles on the outcome of intrauterine insemination (IUI) in order to improve the clinical effects of IUI. Methods 176 women received 384 stimulation cycles. According to different ovulation stimulation protocols , the women were divided into six groups including natural cycle (NC) group, clomiphene citrate (CC) group, letrozole (LE) group;human menopausal gonadotrophin (HMG ) group, CC + HMG group, and LE + HMG group. The pregnancy rate between nature cycles and ovarian hyperstimulation cycles was compared. Results The pregnancy rate was 9.33%in the nature cycle group and 13.27% in the stimulation cycle group, with a significant difference (P < 0.05);and it dif not differ significantly among the stimulation cycle groups (P > 0.05). Conclusions Use of ovulation-induction medications is one of the important factors affecting the pregnancy rate of intrauterine insemination. There are no differences in the outcome of IUI among different ovulation stimulation protocols.
