Objective This study examined the effects of Midazolum-ketamine oral solution (MKOS) on the expression of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 1 (NMDAR1) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)A receptors (GABAAR) mRNA in the cerebral cortex of rat, in order to investigate the sedation mechanism of MKOS. Methods Fifty Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were divided into ten groups according to the observed time after MKOS administration (0,5,10, 15,30,60,90,120,240 and 360 minutes, n =5 each). The 0 minute group(control group) received 0.9% saline instead. Immunohistochemical staining and in situ hybridization were used to detect the expressions of NMDAR1 and GABAAR mRNA in the cerebral cortex. Results Both GABAAR and NMDAR1 all expressed in the glial cells of cerebral cortex. The expression of NMDAR1 in control group was strong. The expression of NMDAR1 became weaker during 15 to 90 minutes after administration of MKOS (P<0.05). The expression of GABAAR mRNA in control group was weaker,while became stronger during 30 to 90 minutes after administration of MKOS (P <0. 05). Conclusion MKOS may play sedation by strengthening the expression of GABAAR and suppressing the expression of NMDAR1 in the cerebral cortex.

Objective To explore the predictive effect of modified DECAF,DECAF,CAPS and APACHEⅡin the assessment of prognosis of AECOPD patients with respiratory failure. Methods Clinical data of 186 AECOPD cases complicated with respiratory failure were analyzed and four score modes were used within 24 hours of admission. Clinical endpoints were patients′ survival status 28 days after admission. The discriminative power of the four score modes was evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results AUC of the modified DECAF(0.777,95%CI:0.710-0.835) and DECAF (0.766,95%CI:0.699-0.825) for prognosis was significantly greater than that of CAPS(0.699 ,95%:0.628-0.764) and APACHEⅡ(0.715,95%:0.645-0.779). Conclusion The modified DECAF and DECAF have predictive values on assessing the prognosis of AECOPD patients with respiratory failure ,which are simple and efficient.

Along with the development of biomarkers, the diagnostic criterion for early AD is continuously progressing until the preclinical stage of AD, on the base of which, the conception of subjective cognitive decline was raised.In order to highlight new ideas of the early diagnosis for AD in its preclinical stage, the current paper will talk about SCD in connection with neuroimaging tech-niques and examination of cerebrospinal fluid.

To study maternal and perinatal outcomes after cervical cerclage in both singleton and twin pregnancies,we retrospectively reviewed women undergoing cervical cerclage for cervical insufficiency at Tongji Hospital,Wuhan,China from January 1,2010 to July 31,2015 to evaluate primary and secondary outcomes for subgroups with cervical length (CL) ≤15,>15 to <25,and ≥25 mm.Of 166 patients who underwent cervical cerclage,after exclusion of patients with missed abortion and continuing pregnancy,141 patients (121 singleton and 20 twin pregnancies) were included in the analysis.Mean gestational age at birth was 34.22 and 28.27 weeks for singleton and twin pregnancies,respectively.There were 17 (14.05%) and 13 (33.33%) neonatal deaths in singleton and twin pregnancies,respectively.Mean age (31.60-±4.62 vs.31.22±4.63 years,P=0.39) and gestational weeks at cerclage (18.50-±4.62 vs.19.31±4.99,P=0.47) were similar for both groups.Mean gestational weeks at delivery (34.22±5.77 vs.28.27±6.17,P<0.001) and the suture to delivery interval (15.72±7.15 vs.8.96±6.70,P<0.001) were significantly longer in the singleton group.These variables indicate a linear negative correlation with the degree of CL shortening,with better outcomes in patients with CL ≥25 mm who underwent cerclage,both in singleton and twin pregnancies.No difference in mode of delivery existed between the singleton group and twin group.Our results indicate a high risk of preterm delivery in both groups,especially in the twin group.Patients with a history of preterm labor and CL >25 mm in the current pregnancy,possibly in a twin pregnancy,could benefit from elective cervical cerclage;however,cervical cerclage was inadvisable for twin pregnancies with a CL >15 and <25 mm.Our data emphasize the importance of re-evaluating the efficacy of cervical cerclage for twin pregnancies in well-designed clinical trials.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the factors influencing the pregnancy outcomes of artificial insemination with donor sperm (AID), improve the pregnancy rate, and evaluate the safety of the offspring.
METHODSWe retrospectively analyzed 7,761 cycles of AID for 5,109 infertile couples performed between July 1, 2005 and June 30, 2013 in the Center of Reproductive Medicine of Shenyang No 204 Hospital, the outcomes of pregnancy, and the incidence of birth defects.
RESULTSTotally, 2 252 clinical pregnancies were achieved by AID, in which the pregnancy rate per cycle was 29. 02% and the cumulative pregnancy rate was 44. 08%. The clinical pregnancy rate was remarkably higher in the females of ≤ 35 years than in those of > 35 years old (30.31% vs 20.18%, P < 0.01), in the women with < 5-year infertility than in those with > 5-year infertility (30.83% vs 28.16%, P < 0.01), and in the patients of the ovarian stimulation group than in those of the natural cycle group (33.22% vs 28.68%, P < 0.01) The clinical pregnancy rate was the highest in the first treatment cycle (29.87%), with statistically significant difference from the fourth cycle (23.61%) (P < 0.05), but not between the other cycles (P > 0.05). There were 28 cases of birth defects in the offspring (1.40%), including 6 cases (21.43%) involving the cardiovascular system, 4 (14.29%) involving the musculoskeletal system, 3 (10.71%) involving the urogenital system, 3 (10.71%) involving the central nervous system, 2 cases (7.14%) of cleft lip and palate, 2 (7.14%) involving the respiratory system, 2 (7.14%) involving the gastrointestinal digestive system, and other anomalies.
CONCLUSIONFemale age, infertility duration, and ovarian stimulation treatment are important factors influencing the clinical pregnancy rate of AID. Artificial insemination with cryopreserved donor sperm does not increase the incidence of birth defects, which is considered as a relatively safe technique of assisted reproduction.

Objective To evaluate the value of prenatal ultrasound in the interrupted aortic arch (IAA), and analyze the reasons of misdiagnosis and improve diagnostic ratio of this kind of defects. Methods Ultrasonic characteristics were analyzed in 16 fetuses with aortic arch anomalies, which were compared with ultrasound image and autopsy results of the normal fetus. The relativity of fetal IAA and abnormal chromosome was also analyzed. Results Among the 16 cases, 15 cases were confirmed by anatomy and the accuracy of ultrasound diagnosis was 94% (15/16), of which one case was serious constriction of aortic arch, one case was error type, three cases were obtained explicit type due to unsatisfactory results of prenatal ultrasound. The coincidence rate of ultrasonic type was 73% (11/15). All of the corrected diagnosed cases were detected with ventricular septal, of which 5 cases were detected with complete endocardial cushion defect, 9 cases were found extra cardiac malformations. Among the 7 karyotype check cases, 3 cases were diagnosed with Trisomy 18, 1 case Trisomy 13, while the rest 3 cases normal. The incidence rate of Trisomy 18 was 43 % (3/7). Conclusions Prenatal ultrasound shows a high accuracy in diagnosing fetal interrupted aortic arch (IAA ), but there’s a need to be improved in explicit typing. It is difficult to identify fetal interrupted aortic arch (IAA) and serious constriction of aortic arch (COA). The incidence rate of Trisomy 18 in the abnormal chromosome of fetal IAA is high.
