Objective To investigate the prevalence,related factors and individualized health management strategy of female urinary incontinence.Methods Questionnaire survey has been adopted on 4105 female subjects in the east coastal,middle and southwest areas of Shandong Province from Jan.2011 to Dec.2011.Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of urinary incontinence.The degree of risk was conducted according to the UI affected to the quality of life.Results The available questionnaires were 4105.Logistic analysis showed that age,delivery frequency,first delivery age,newborn birth weight,perineum injury history,chronic cough and constipation were risk factors of urinary incontinence.However,the protective factors of urinary incontinence included abdominal delivery and whitecollar worker.Mild,moderate and strong impacts of urinary incontinence on the quality of life were found 77.68％ (1079/1389),21.38％ (297/1389) and 0.94％ (13/1389) of the participants,respectively.Unfortunately,doctor's office visiting was as low as 1.08％ (15/1389).Along with the increase of age,parity,age of first time delivery,injury of perineum,chronic cough,constipation,may add the risk of incidence of urinary incontinence while caesarean section and brainwork may decrease the risk of incidence of urinary incontinence.Conclusions The overall of incidence of urinary incontinence in Shandong province is in a high level.Urinary incontinence may significantly reduce the quality of life of the patients.More investigation on individualized health management strategy for female patients with urinary incontinence should be needed in the future.

Objective To explore effects of fosinopril and losartan on renal Klotho expression and oxidative stress in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and the mechanisms underlying the protection against renal damage. Methods Fifteen male SHRs (22 weeks old) were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=5 in each group): a SHR group, a fosinopril group ［10 mg/(kg?d)］, and a losartan group ［50 mg/(kg?d)］. Age-matched Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats were chosen for a control group. Eight weeks later, tail arterial pressure, 24 hours urinary protein (Upro)，urinary N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAGase) were measured. Renal pathological changes were examined under light microscopy by HE staining. The renal mRNA and protein expression of Klotho were determined by RT-PCR, immunohistochemical staining or Western blot. The levels of total antioxidant capacity (TAOC), malondialdehyde (MDA), Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn-SOD), Mn superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) were determined.Results The typical pathological characteristics of hypertensive renal damage were observed in the kidney of the SHR group．Compared with the SHR group, the systolic pressure, Upro, and urinary NAGase, the content of MDA and renal pathological damage was reduced while the renal Klotho expression and activities of TAOC, Cu/Zn-SOD, CAT, and GSH-Px were increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01) in the fosinopril or losartan group. There was no significant difference in renal Mn-SOD level among the 4 groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Fosinopril and losartan can exert protection against hypertensive renal damage through upregulating Klotho expression as well as reducing oxidative stress.

Objective To investigate the clinicopathologic characteristics of premalignant and malignant endometrial polyps (EP) in premenopausal and postmenopausal women.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted in 42 cases of premalignant and malignant EP from 1993 to 2012.Polyps were classified into premenopausal (group A,10 cases) and menopausal (group B,32 cases),including 26 cases of endometrioid adenocarcinoma,4 of clear cell carcinoma,9 of serous adenocarcinoma,and 3 of atypical hyperplasia.Results The prevalence rate of premalignant and malignant EP was 1.42％ (42/2 965),the prevalence rate of malignancy in postmenopausal and postmenopausal women was 0.48％ (10/2 064) and 3.55％ (32/901),respectively.The mean size of EP was (1.6 ± 0.8) cm,abnormal uterine bleeding was positive in 90％ (38/42) of cases.The EP pathological diagnosis showed all were endometrioid adenocarcinoma in group A,while there were 4 of clear cell carcinoma,9 of serous adenocarcinoma in group B.The mean size of EP was (1.1 ± 0.6) and (1.7 ± 0.9) cm in group A and B respectively (P ＜0.05).According to immunohistochemistry,all cases of group A were ER positive,but 41％ (11/27) of group B were ER negative (P =0.059).The PR positive rate was 8/9 and 56％ (15/27) in group A and B,respectively (P =0.169).Conclusions The risk of the EP malignancy rate is higher,while ER,PR positive rate are lower in postmenopausal womcn.Postmenopausal EP,especially accompanied by abnormal uterine bleeding and large polyps should be removed as soon as possible.

An iodine analysis instrument with sequential injection of urine samples was developed. A method for measurement of urine iodine was also developed by combining sequential injection and catalysis kinetics,and making use of catalysis facilitation of the iodine in the redox reaction of As~(3+) and Ce~(4+) . The sequential injection and stopped-flow stabilization determination were made possible by the program-controlled injector with controlled flow rate and the 16-hole program-controlled selection valves. The arsenic-cerium reaction with iodine-catalyzed at constant temperature state might proceed with the constant temperature flow cell. Using the syringes with program-controlled velocity,pushing and suction,Using the digital connected circuit and micro-iodine determination software,the reaction temperature of (32.0±0.1)℃,injection time of 45 s,stabilization time of 60 s,detection time of 20 s,injection volume of 400μL,linear range of 15 -600μg/L,detecting limitation of 5.01 μg/L(n=11) and recovery rate of 94. 1 % - 105. 1 % were obtained. With this method,the detecting result of the National Standard Reference (GBW09109 and GBW09110) materials was within a given standard range. Through this method,the detecting results had no significant differences comparing with those by standard method of National Health Service(P >0.05).

Objective To systematically evaluate the comprehensive effect of subglottic secretion drainage (SSD) on patients with mechanical ventilation (MV) in intensive care unit (ICU). Methods The randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) comparing SSD (intervention group) versus non-SSD (control group) in adult patients with MV in ICU was collected through the databases such as the PubMed database of the National Library of Medicine, CNKI, Wanfang database and the Chinese journal of science and technology database (VIP). The subjects were ICU patients with MV, and the retrieval time ranged from January 2006 to December 2016. Two reviewers independently screened the studies according to the inclusive and exclusive criteria, extracted the data, and assessed the quality. Then RevMan 5.3 software was used for Meta-analysis. Sensitivity analysis was performed using Stata 11.0 software. Funnel plot was used to analyze publication bias. Results In the 1004 documents obtained from preliminary screening, a total of 13 studies involving 2052 patients were enrolled after excluding duplicated documents and literature did not meet the inclusion criteria, with 1021 patients in intervention group, and 1031 in control group. Meta-analysis showed that compared with control group, the application of SSD in patients with MV could contribute to the reduction of the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia [VAP; risk ratio (RR) = 0.54, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) = 0.46-0.64, P < 0.00001], the duration of MV [mean difference (MD) = -3.29, 95%CI = -4.53 to -2.05, P < 0.00001] and length of hospital stay (MD = -4.27, 95% CI = -7.36 to -1.18, P = 0.007) were shortened, while there was no significant difference in ICU or hospital mortality rate between the intervention group and control group (RR = 0.89, 95%CI = 0.73-1.09, P = 0.25). The sensitivity analysis for studies enrolled in Meta-analysis of MV duration showed that individual research results were stable through step remove of the included literatures and combined calculation of the remaining literature value, suggesting that individual research results were stable, and would not have a significant impact on the overall results. The results of the funnel analysis showed that there was a symmetry in the inclusion studies, and no significant publication bias was found. Conclusions SSD did have effect in reducing the incidence of VAP, shortening the duration of MV and length of hospital stay, while there was no significant effect on reducing mortality rate. Effective use of SSD is an important measure to prevent VAP. It is necessary to objectively evaluate the clinical effect of SSD.

Objective To evaluate application of recombinant human luteinizing hormone (r-hLH)used in ovarian stimulation of assisted reproductive technique and impact on outcome of pregnancy. Methods From Apr. To Jul. 2009, 123 patients with low LH level ( < 1 U/L) at day 3 of menstruation and downregulation of pituitary function undergoing in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in Reproductive Medical Center, Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University were enrolled in this study, whom were classified into 66 cases treated by r-hLH in r-hLH group and 57 cases without r-hLH treatment in non-r-hLH group. In the mean time, 145 patients with normal level of serum LH ( 1-2 U/L) not given by r-hLH treatment and undergoing IVF-ET were matched as control group. Total amount of gonadotropin, estradiol levels and LH levels on the administration of human chorionic gonadotropin ( hCG), number of oocytes retrieved, number of 2PN zygotes, rate of high quality embryos, the rates of implantation and clinical pregnancy were compared among these three groups. Results The level of serum LH on the day of hCG administration were ( 1.59 ± 0.77 ) U/L in r-hLH group, (0.54 ± 0.25 ) U/L in non-r-hLH group and (2.39 ± 1.01 ) U/L in control group, which reached tatistical difference between every two groups (P < 0.05). The rates of high quality embryo were 59.36％ in r-hLH group, 57.79％ in non-r-hLH group,which were significantly lower than 65.94％ in control group, respectively (P < 0. 05 ). The rates of 2PN were 67.62％ in r-hLH group and 68. 32％ in control group, which were significantly higher than 62. 84％ in non-r-hLH group, respectively ( P < 0.05 ). The rates of implantation of 29.77％ in r-hLH group were significantly higher than 18.26％ in non-r-hLH group ( P < 0.05 ). The total amount of gonadotropin,estradiol level on the day of hCG administration, the number of oocytes retrieved, and clinical pregnancy rate were not significantly different among those three groups ( P > 0.05 ). Conclusion The administration of recombinant human uteinizing hormone in patients who are profoundly suppressed after down-regulation with long protocol can get more quality embryos, the higher rates of 2PN and implantation.
