Objective To study the changes in semen quality and levels of sex reproductive hormones in servicemen constantly exposed to radar. Method The quality of semen was analyzed with the aid of the WlTJ-9000 computer-assisted semen analysis system and the levels of sex hormones were determined with radioimmunoassay in 64 servicemen constantly exposed to radar. Results Compared to control group, semen volume, pH value, sperm density and sperm motility in radar-exposed persons were reduced. No significant difference was observed in semen viscosity, sperm viability rate, morphology, acrosomal integrity rate, and hormone levels between these two groups. Conclusions Microwave non-heating effect had adverse effect on the quality of semen, producing sub-clinical injuries.

Objective To investigate the expression of CD90,IGF1R in hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods CD90,IGF1R expression were detected by SP immunohistochemical staining in 36 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma,20 cases of normal liver tissue biopsied from patients of chronic cholecystitis undergoing cholecystectomy. Results The positive rate of CD90 (63.89％,23/36),IGF1R (52.78％,19/36) in hepatocellular carcinoma significantly increased (P ＜ 0.05 ); The positive rate of CD90 was higher in UICC Ⅲ - Ⅳ stage group (79.17％ ) than in UICC stage Ⅰ - Ⅱ group (33.33％,P ＜0.05) ;The positive rate of CD90 was higher in low differentiated group (76.92％ ) than in well-differentiated group (56.52％,P ＜0.05).The positive rate of IGF1R was higher in UICC Ⅲ - Ⅳ stage group (70.83％ ) than in UICC stage Ⅰ - Ⅱ group ( 16.67％,P ＜ 0.05 ). The positive rate of IGF1R was higher in low differentiated group (84.62％) than in well-differentiated group (37.38％,P ＜ 0.05 ).The expression of IGF1R was positively correlated with that of CD90 (P ＜ 0.05 ).The median survival of CD90+ patients (85 days) was shorter than CD90- patients ( 505 days ) ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The median survival of IGF1 R + patients (100 days) was shorter than IGF1 R- patients (408 days,P ＜ 0.05). Conclusions CD90 or IGF1R expression correlates positively with the progression of HCC.

Objective To assess the liver biopsy and the clinical characteristics of inactive HBsAg carriers.Methods One hundred and ten inactive HBsAg carriers,including 76 males and 34 females aged (38.9 ± 9.4) years (21-66),underwent liver biopsy from January 2011 to September 2015,the histopathological findings and clinical features were analyzed.Among 110 cases the inflammation activity (A) was ＜ A2 in 73 cases and ≥A2 in 37 cases;the fibrosis (F) ＜ F2 in 63 cases and ≥F2 in 47 cases.The upper limits of normal (ULN) for ALT was defined as 30 U/L for men and 19 U/L for women according to World Health Organization (WHO) standard,and 50 U/L for men and 40 U/L for women according to Chinese national standard.There were 59 cases with ALT ＜ 1 × ULN of WHO standard and 110 cases with ALT ＜ 1 × ULN of Chinese standard.Results In 110 inactive HBsAg carriers,there were 100 cases (90.9％) ≥A1 and 37 cases (33.6％) ≥A2,84 cases (76.3％) ≥F1 and 47 cases (42.7％) ≥F2.The severity of A and F were both higher in males than that in females,especially that of F (U =2.162,P =0.032;x2 =5.315,P =0.021).But there were no statistical differences between WHO standard group and Chinese standard group (U =0.951,0.435;P =0.341,0.663).Along with the increase of age,the degrees of A and F aggravated (F =3.705,5.915;P =0.014,0.001).The average ages in ≥ A2 group and ≥F2 group were (41.7 ± 9.6) years and (38.7 ± 8.1) years,respectively.The independent risk factors for severity of A and F were age,gender (male) and age,respectively.Conclusion There may be histological damages of varying degree in liver tissues of most inactive HBsAg carriers,and for those aged 40 years and over,especially males screening of liver histological activity and fibrosis would be necessary.

Objective To analyze the correlation between liver pathology and clinical characteristics in a large series of patients with chronic HBV infections , so as to provide the data base for non-invasive medical diagnosis .Methods Liver pathology and clinical characteristics of 1 397 patients with chronic HBV infections were retrospectively analyzed . Ridit analysis and Spearman correlation analysis were performed to investigate the correlations of clinical characteristics with liver pathology of patients .Results In 1 397 patients, there were 604 patients (43.24%) with liver inflammation grading ≥G2 and 504 patients (36.08%) with fibrosis stage ≥S2.Inflammation grade and fibrosis stage of liver tissues were both higher in male patients than those in females (u=3.093 and 2.854, P<0.01).Inflammation grade and fibrosis stage of liver tissues in patients aged ≤30 years were lower than those in patients aged >30-40 years and >40 years (r=0.259 and 0.303, P<0.01;F=4.199 and 12.226,11.610 and 24.359, P<0.05 and <0.01).Patients with HBeAg( -) and HBV DNA≥103 copies/mL were of higher degrees in liver tissue inflammation compared with those with HBeAg ( +) and those with HBeAg ( -) but HBV DNA <103 copies/mL (F=8.788 and 5.635, all P<0.01);while the fibrosis stage in patients with HBeAg (-) and HBV DNA≥103 copies/mL was only higher than that in HBeAg ( +) patients (F=12.886, P<0.01). Liver tissue inflammation and liver fibrosis aggravated with the increase of ALT ( r=0.537 and 0.517, P<0.01).There was no significant difference in liver tissue inflammation among different age groups of patients with ALT (1-<2) ×ULN and HBV DNA≥103 copies/mL (χ2 =4.365, P >0.05),but there was significant difference in liver fibrosis in patients between aged >40 years and ≤30 years ( F=3.177,P<0.05).Conclusions Liver biopsy and antiviral therapy should be considered in chronic HBV infected patients with age of >30 years, lightly elevated ALT levels , HBeAg(-) and detectable HBV DNA levels , especially in male patients .Screening for liver fibrosis should be considered in patients with HBeAg ( -) and low HBV DNA levels .

Objective To investigate the intensity of HBsAg and HBcAg expression in liver tissue of patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and its clinical significance.Methods A total of 994 HBV infected patients underwent liver biopsy and histopathological examination.The expression of HBsAg and HBcAg in liver tissue was detected by histoimmunochemistry.Patients were divided into HBeAg (+)/HBVDNA(+), HBeAg(-)/HBV DNA(+) and HBeAg(-)/HBV DNA(-) groups according to HBeAg and HBV DNA levels;patients were divided into ＜2 × normal (ULN) group, 2-＜5 × ULN groupand ≥5 × ULN group according to the alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels.The histologic activity (A), fibrosis (F), the expression of HBsAg and HBcAg in liver tissue and their correlations with clinical features were analyzed.Logistic regression analysis was used to study the factors affecting the expression of HBsAg and HBcAg in liver tissue.Results Among 994 HBV infected patients, 941 cases (94.67％) were intrahepatic HBsAg positive and 553 cases (55.63％) were intrahepatic HBcAg positive;403 cases (40.85％) were ≥A2 in histologic activity and 371 cases (36.09％) were ≥F2 in fibrosis.The degree of A and F was the highest in HBeAg (-) / HBV DNA (+) group, followed by HBeAg (-) / HBV DNA (-) group, and was the lowest in HBeAg (+) / HBV DNA (+) group.The intensity of intrahepatic HBsAg expression was significantly different among three groups (x2 =6.299, r =-0.760, P ＜ 0.05), however, the difference was not showed in pairwise comparisons.The difference of intrahepatic HBcAg intensity among three groups was statistically significant (x2 =282.995, r =-0.645, P ＜ 0.01), the intensity was the highest in HBeAg (+) / HBV DNA (+) group and the lowest in HBeAg (-) / HBV DNA (-) group.The constituent ratio of HBeAg positive and HBV DNA level were higher and the average age was lower in intrahepatic HBsAg positive group than those in HBsAg negative group.The constituent ratio of positive HBeAg, the levels of ALT, AST, PLT and HBV DNA were higher and the average age, the average FIB-4 level were lower in intrahepatic HBcAg positive group than those in HBcAg negative group.The HBV DNA level was an independent risk factor for intrahepatic HBsAg intensity, and the HBeAg positive and HBV DNA level were independent risk factors for intrahepatic HBcAg intensity.There were no significant differences in A and F among different groups of intrahepatic HBsAg intensity (x2 =1.943 and 2.630, both P ＞ 0.05).There was significant difference in F among different groups of intrahepatic HBcAg intensity (x2 =12.352, P ＜ 0.01), but not in A.The degree of F was the highest in intrahepatic HBcAg negative group.There was significant difference in intrahepatic HBcAg intensity among different groups of ALT level (x2 =16.349, P ＜ 0.01), but not in intrahepatic HBsAg intensity.The intrahepatic HBcAg intensity in ALT ＜ 2 × ULN group was lower than that in other two groups.Conclusions Most of patients with chronic HBV infection are intrahepatic HBsAg positive and more than half of them are intrahepatic HBcAg positive.The intrahepatic HBsAg intensity is not associated with A and F, but correlates with HBV DNA level.The intrahepatic HBcAg intensity is not associated with A, but it is negatively correlated with F and positively correlated with positive HBeAg expression, HBV DNA level and ALT level.

Objective:To investigate the expression of platelet-specific alloantibody in the sera of primipara,pluripara,and recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) patients,and analyze the relationship between platelet-specific alloantibody and gravidity or RSA. Methods:A total of 100 primipara, 100 pluripara (gravidity≥2) and 100 RSA patients who received prenatal examination in department of aristogenesis, No. 202 Hospital of PLA from Apr 2015 to Dec 2015 were recruited. The blood samples were collected during 16-28 weeks of pregnancy, and the expression of platelet-specific alloantibody was detected by solid-phase red cell adherence assay. Results:There were 5 positive platelet-specific alloantibody in primipara group, 14 in red all pluripara group,and 26 in RSA group. Platelet-specific alloantibody was significantly associated with gravidity and the incidence of RSA (P<0.05) by chi-square analysis. Conclusion:Screening the expression of platelet-specific alloantibody during pregnancy can provide evidence for the diagnosis and treatment of RSA.

Objective:To investigate any anti-aging effect of repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and explore the relationship between the effect and relief of clinical symptoms in patients with Parkinson′s disease (PD).Methods:A total of 108 PD patients were randomly divided into an rTMS group and a control group, each of 54, while another 54 healthy counterparts were selected to form a normal group. In addition to anti-PD drug therapy, the rTMS group was given daily rTMS treatment, 5 days a week for 4 weeks, while the control group received sham rTMS treatment, with no treatment of the normal group. Before the treatment and after 4 weeks of treatment as well as and 1 month after the ending of the treatment, the subjects′ clinical exercise symptoms were evaluated using the Unified Parkinson′s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), a timed exercise test and the 10m re-entry exercise test. Non-exercise symptoms were assessed using the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and the Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE). Fasting venous blood samples were analyzed to quantify the serum levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3).Results:Four weeks and 1 month after the treatment, the average UPDRS scores, exercise test times and 10m re-entry exercise test results of the rTMS group were significantly better than those before treatment and significantly better than those of the control group at the same time point. The rTMS group′s average HAMA, HAMD and MMSE scores, as well as its average P300 latency and amplitude were also significantly better than those of the control group at the same time point and significantly better than those before treatment. After 4 weeks, the average MMP-3 content in the rTMS group was significantly lower than the control group′s average, and after a month the average levels of TNF, IL-6, IL-1β and MMP-3 of the rTMS group were all significantly different from those before treatment and those of the control group. The TNF, IL-6, IL-1β and MMP-3 levels were all positively correlated with the average UPDRS total score.Conclusion:High-frequency rTMS therapy can change the phenotypes related to cell senescence, and thus has good therapeutic effect on motor and non-motor symptoms of PD.
