To observe the changes in hemorheology, endotoxin and TNF ? in blood after hemoperfusion(HP) with adsorbent immobilized polymyxin B (PMB) on sepsis in rats. Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups:LPS+HP+PMB,LPS+HP and LPS. All the rats received intravenously injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS, Escherichia coil O111:B4,1mg/kg). Plasma of the rats in the group of LPS+HP+PMB was passed through a column containing sepharose coated activated charcoal immobilized polymyxin B at the 4th hour after LPS injection. The treated plasma was transfused bak after being mixed with blood cells. In LPS+HP group, the column did not contain immobilized polymyxin B. The animals of LPS group received LPS only. Quantitative endotoxin determination in blood was done with limulus amebocyte lysate test,TNF ? of the plasma assayed with ELISA, and hemorheology parameters were also observed after hemoperfusion. In LPS+HP+PMB group, the concentration of plasma was significantly decreased after hemoperfusion, but it was still significantly higher than the baseline value, and there was a decrease of blood cell ratio after hemoperfusion. The results suggest that specific adsorbent could remove endotoxin in the circulation and improve hemorheology.

Response surface analysis (uniform precision of central composite design, SAS 9.1.3 software) was applied to optimize the four major factors (ratio of soybean meal to water, enzyme quantity, fermentation time and inoculation quantity) for soybean meal solid fermentation. According to the change of the hydrolyzation degree of soybean protein, the equation of polynomial regression was established between those factors and the response. The result showed that the optimum condition included as follows: ratio of soybean meal to water 1∶1.00,enzyme quantity 2.55%, fermentation time 65h and inoculation quantity 1.00%. Under the optimum level, the degree of hydrolyzation reached 13.3%, which increased 56% over pre-optimization.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics, management and prognosis of gestational trophoblastic disease in women aged 50 years or more. Methods Thirty-eight cases of gestational trophoblastic disease in women aged 50 years or more, who were treated in Peking Union Medical College Hospital between 1992 and 2002, were reviewed retrospectively. Results The median age was 52 years (range from 50 to 58 years ). The lesions included 5 hydatidiform moles (13%), 19 invasive moles (50%), 12 choriocarcinomas (32%) and 2 placenta site trophoblastic tumors (5%). All of 38 cases presented with abnormal vaginal bleeding. Twenty-three cases of hydatidiform moles were diagnosed at their first visit to the hospital, and 15 of them received prophylactic chemotherapy, of whom 10 progressed to invasive mole, 3 developed lung metastasis. All of the other 8 cases without prophylactic chemotherapy progressed to malignant changes with metastasis of lung. The use of prophylactic chemotherapy reduced the incidence of subsequent metastasis. All of 38 cases received chemotherapy. Thirty-two cases underwent hysterectomy, complete remission was achieved in 91% of patients; complete remission was achieved in 2 of 6 patients without hysterectomy. Conclusions The diagnosis of pregnancy and pregnancy-related disease should be considered in the elderly women presenting with abnormal vaginal bleeding. Once gestational trophoblastic disease in women aged 50 years or more is diagnosed, chemotherapy should be given as soon as possible. Hysterectomy is frequently required to improve the prognosis of gestational trophoblastic disease in the elderly women.

Objective To analyze prophylactic chemotherapy outcome and clinical characteristics in patients of high-risk hydatidiform mole. Methods Twenty-three patients who were diagnosed as high-risk hydatidiform mole and undergone prophylactic chemotherapy in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.After prophylactic chemotherapy, 11 patients didn't develop to gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN),while the other 12 patients developed to GTN and needed a regimen change to combination chemotherapy.The clinical characteristics of these patients and outcome of prophylactic chemotherapy were compared between two groups. Results There was no significant difference between the two groups on patients' age,weeks of delayed menses, enlarged uterine size excessive for gestational age, and incidence of theca-lutein cysts of ovaries. However,the median levels of pre-evacuation serum β-hCG in two groups were 469 144 U/L and 768 044 U/L respectively, and median days needed for β-hCG declining to normal(≤2U/L) at the first time were 71 and 120 days respectively, which were both significantly different between two groups.Analyzed with receiver operating charactristic(ROC), the level of serum β-hCG could be a predictor for prognosis. Choosing 750 000 U/L as the cut-off value, we could expect the serum β-hCG to have a specificity of 91% and a sensitivity of 58% to predict whether prophylactic chemotherapy will be successful.Conclusions For those patients who have to receive prophylactic chemotherapy because of risk factors and unavailable hCG assessments for follow-up, it's better to use double-agent or combination chemotherapy if the level of serum β-hCG reached 750 000 U/L so as to reduce therapy duration and prevent relevant chemoresistance.
