Objective To observe the effects of pregnancy induced hypertension on lipid metabolism and bilirubin metabolism in term neonates.Methods 200 term neonates were selected and divided into the two groups,100 cases whose mother were healthy were control group and another 100 cases whose mother had gestational hypertension were observation group.Birth weight,measured in cord blood triglyceride (TG),total cholesterol (TC) levels,high density lipoprotein (HDL-C),low density lipoprotein (LDL-C),adiponectin (APN) level were recorded.Results Birth weight of the observation group had significantly lower birth weight (2 927 ± 492) g,than the weight of the control group (3 452 ± 348) g.The incidence of lower birth weight was higher than in the observation group.TG,LDL-C levels of the observation group were (0.6 ± 0.24) mmol/L,(1.95 ± 0.25) mmol/L,were higher than those of the control group[(0.39 ± 0.17) mmol/L,(1.95 ± 0.25) mmol/L].There was a statistically significant difference between the groups (t =12.35,2.35,P ＜ 0.01 or P ＜ 0.05).HL-C and APN of the observation group were lower than those of the control group (t =1.79,7.00,all P ＜ 0.05).Bilirubin after bomed 24 hours,48 hours,72 hours and bilirubin peak of the observation group were (8.64 ± 2.17) mg/L,(11.06 ± 3.12) mg/L,(10.32 ± 2.47) mg/L,(12.04 ± 2.13) mg/L and were higher than those of the control group [(3.06 ± 0.94) mg/L,(6.98 ± 1.56) mg/L,(7.26±1.89)mg/L,(9.64±1.98)mg/L](t=23.48,11.65,9.84,8.27,allP＜0.01).Conclusion Maternal PIH may affect birth weight,lipid metabolism and bilirubin metabolism.

Objective To observe the effect of herbal plaster at acupoints for the excess syndrome of primary dysmenorrhea and its influence on prostaglandins.Methods The patients with of primary dysmenorrhea excess syndrome were randomized into treatment group(33 cases) and control group(31 cases).The former was treated by herbal plaster at acupoints while the latter treated by orally taking Tianqi Tongjing Capsule(Radix Notoginseng for Capsule Dysmenorrhea).Before and after the treatment,the pain scores and the accompanied symptoms were observed;and PGF2? and PGE2 of peripheral blood and renal and hepatic functions were detected.Results After treatment,the pain scores of both groups were significantly decreased(P

Because of minimal donor site morbidity, adequate tissue, excellent clinical and functional results, the anterolateral thigh flap has become one of the most important tissue flaps which are used to repair the defects of head and neck. Generally, anterolateral thigh flap is mainly used to repair the maxillofacial defects in head and neck surgery. However, the anterolateral thigh flap is a better tissue flap for reconstruction of hypopharyngeal and cervical esophageal defects.

Objective:To assess the efficacy of terbinafine combined with fluconazole in the treatment of recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis(RVVC).Method:94 patients with recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis were randomly divided into three groups.30 cases in the terbinafine monotherapy group were treated with an oral 250mg-dose of terbinafine once daily; 31 cases in the fluconazole monotherpy group were treated with an oral 150mg-dose of fluconazole once daily;33 cases in the combined therapy group were given terbinafine and fluconazole together,and the usage and dosage were the same as those of the monotherapy groups.The treatment period of the three groups was 7 days.The efficacy was evaluated in the second week,sixth month and twelfth month after the treatment.Result:In the second week or sixth month or twelfth month after the treatment,the clinical cure rate,clinical effective rate and fungous clearance rate of the combined therapy group were higher than those of the monotherapy groups,which had statistically significant difference.Conclusion:The combined therapy with terbinafine and fluconazole can effectively improve the clinical signs and symptoms of RVVC patients and eliminate candida,which is more effective than the monotherapy with terbinafine or fluconazole.

Objective To study the utility of brainstem auditory evoked potentials in the evaluation of children with cerebral palsy. Methods In a group of 86 cases of cerebral palsy aged 6～30 months and a control group of 60 normal children, the brainstem auditory evoked potentials were recorded and subsequently analyzed and evaluated correlatively with asphyxia during birth and their functional impairments (including the visual, speech impairment, epilepsy and eating dysfunction). Results The latencies of waves Ⅲ?Ⅴ,the interpeak latencies(IPLs) of waves Ⅲ-Ⅴof BAEP in children with cerebral palsy were often abnormal( P

To report one case of postoperative reconstruction of facial squamous cell carcinoma by cervicotho-racic flap and temporal flap in our hospital. Clinical symptoms of the patient are facial mass and tumor ulceration.The patient had chronic bronchitis. On admission, the right side of the patient face was found to have a mass of about 6. 5 cm X 5. 0 cm, and the middle is about 2. 5 cm X 2. 5 cm X 1. 0cm ulcer, the neck has no swollen lymphnodes by palpation. After imaging and pathological examination,the patient was diagnosed as right facial squamouscell carcinoma and chronic bronchitis.

Objectives To observe the effects of varied doses of L-thyroxin sodium ( L-T4) on congenital hypothyroidism ( CH) and to determine appropriate dose for early therapeutic intervention. Methods Totally, 108 cases of confirmed CH were divided into two groups (54 in each group). All the cases were administered with L-T4 at varied doses( 10. 1? - 15. 0 ?g ? kg-1? d-1 for large-dose group and 6. 0 - 10. 0 ?g ?kg-1? d-1 for small-dose group) after their parents were trained for basic knowledge of CH by specialists. Their serum levels of T3, T4 and TSH, as well as their body height, weight and head circumference, were measured during follow-up. L-T4 was maintained at doses of 1. 0 - 4. 0 ?g ? kg -1 ? d-1 when their serum levels of T3, T4 and TSH returned to normal. Results All the 108 cases had their clinical symptoms quickly improved and development and growth accelerated after L-T4 substitution. Their serum level of T3 returned to normal in all cases, that of T4 did not return to normal in six cases of large-dose group and in 16 cases of small-dose group, and that of TSH did return to normal in 22 cases of large-dose group and in 39 cases of small-dose group, respectively, after one-month treatment, with a significant difference between the two groups. Cases in large-dose group gained more weight in average than those in small-dose group when they were three months old. Conclusions Early therapeutic intervention for babies with CH with L-thyroxin sodium of 10. 1 -15. 0 ?g ? kg-1? d-1 could quickly correct abnormal function of their thyroid and could avoid abnormal development of their intelligence due to CH.

Objective To develop the clinical application of tandem mass spectrometry in earlystage diagnosis of patients with growth retardation.Methods Tandem mass spectrometry was used to quantitatively detect blood amino acids and acyl carnitine in 155 cases of children with growth retardation.The tandem mass spectrometry results,clinical symptoms,and treatment tracking results were analyzed.Results Ten patients with inborn metabolic absence of amino acids and acyl carnitine were confirmed including four cases of methylmalonic acidemia,one case of propionic acidemia,one case of medium-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenase deficiency,one case of ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency,and three cases of phenylketonuria.Conclusions Tandem mass spectrometry was helpful for some patients in etiologic diagnosis and therapeutic effect assessment of cerebral developmental retardation.

Objective To elucidate the relationship between LYVE-1 and VEGF-C and their expression in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma(LSCC),and provide theoretic evidence for the judgement of metastasis and prognosis of LSCC,also for the treatment.Methods An immunohistocbemical analysis was performed to 50 specimens of LSCC with lymphatic endothelial marker LYVE-1.Quantitation of lymphangiogenesis growth factor VEGF-C by RT- PCR was performed to 30 specimens of LSCC.Finally the correlation between LVD and VEGF-C mRNA was analyzed with statistics methods.Results LYVE-1 (+) was observed in all LSCC.The median copy number of VEGF-c mRNA was 4-5-fold higher in LSCC than in adjacent normal tissue.There was correlation between tumor VEGF-C mRNA copy number and intratumoral LVD.Conclusion Lymphatic vessels existed in LSCC.There was correlation between high levels of LVD in LSCC than in normal tissue.The high level of VEGF-C may accelerate the lymphatic metastasis by promoting the proliferation of lymphatic vessel.
