BACKGROUND:The phenomenon of temporary ischemia of the tissues and organs caused by injury is common in the clinic. However, there are few studies on the treatment of ischemia/reperfusion injury. It is significant to investigate the effect of TanshinoneⅡA on improving uterine ischemia/reperfusion injury in a rat model. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of TanshinoneⅡA intervention on improving uterine ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats. METHODS:The rat models of uterine ischemia/reperfusion injury were established by suture method. The rats that were intraperitonealy injected with Sodium Tanshinone IIA Silate injection (20 mg/kg) at 5, 3, 1 days and 30 minutes before the operation were included in the experimental group. Model and sham operation groups were established for comparison. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Spectrophotometry and immunohistochemical staining results showed that at 1 and 3 hours of ischemia/reperfusion, the malondialdehyde concentration and Bax protein expression in the injuried rat uterine tissue were significantly decreased (P < 0.05), superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and Bcl-2 protein expression were significantly increased (P < 0.05) in the experimental group than in the model group. The results confirm that TanshinoneⅡA has a protective effect on uterine ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats.

Objective To discuss the surgical techniques and efficacy of a new method of breast treatment of hypermastia. Methods From January 2009 to February 2011, a series of 15 patients underwent a new technique for reduction mammaplasty. This technique involved a superomedial pedicle nipple-areolar complex (NAC). Results In our series, the resection weight per breast was (522. 9±218.3) g and the new nipple-to-sternal-notch distance was (21.7± 1.74) cm postoperatively. Mean nipple elevation was 8. 5cm (range, 4-16 cm). There were no hematoma and partial or complete NAC necroses occurred in our series. Minimal wound dehiscence occurred in one case ( 6.7 % ). Thirteen patients were followed up for 6 to 18 months. NAC sensibilities were comparable before and after operation, and good breast shapes were produced in all cases. Conclusion The superomedial pedicle technique provides good results with respect to NAC viability and sensibility, breast contour and last superomedial fullness.

Objective:To investigate the effect of c-maf gene on the MM cells' proliferation and invasion activity. Methods:Lipo-fectin Reagent was used to transfect c-maf siRNA into multiple myeloma cell of RPMI8226. The mRNA expression level of c-maf was detected by RT-PCR.Cell growth curve was measured by MTT assay. Transwell chamber test was used to measure MM cells' in vitro in-vasion activity. The cell cycle distribution were assessed by flow cytomentry. The protein expression levels of survivin,MMP-2, MMP-9, ARK5 and cyclin B1 were detected by Western blot. We also detected the activity of Caspase-3/7. Results:The c-maf siRNA was effectively transfected into cells and the mRNA expression of the c-maf gene was inhibited.MTT test and Transwell chamber test showed that the proliferation and in vitro invasion activity of transfected cells were significantly lower than those of other two groups (P<0.05). Cell cycle of c-maf siRNA transfected group cells was arrested in G2/M phase. The expression levels of survivin,MMP-2, MMP-9,ARK5,cyclin B1 and the activity of Caspase-3/7 between c-maf siRNA transfected group and the other two groups were sta-tistically different (P<0.05). Conclusion:c-maf gene by c-maf siRNA can remarkably inhibit proliferation and invasion of multiple my-eloma cell lines of RPMI8226. C-maf gene may be used as the target for multiple myeloma gene therapy.

Objective To analyze labor duration in nulliparous women and discuss the change about curve of labor duration. Methods Two thousand, one hundred and forty nulliparous, full-term pregnant, singleton, cephalic presentation and vaginal delivery women who delivered at Peking University First Hospital were included. There were 1 300 cases between January 1, and December 31, 2009, while 840 cases between January 1, and May 31, 2013. A retrospective study was conducted. Data on maternal age, gestational age at delivery, body mass index at delivery, newborn weight, time of labor initiation, cervical dilatation and the amount of bleeding within the first 24 h after delivery were recorded. Data were compared by t test and χ2 test. The median time span corresponding to one-centimeter-increase in cervical dilatation was calculated. Results (1)Compared with data from 2009, the maternal age [(29.0±3.0) vs (29.6±2.8) years, t=4.77], incidence of postpartum hemorrhage [1.8%(24/1 300) vs 4.3%(36/840),χ2=11.17], proportion of induced labor [37.3%(485/1 300) vs 64.0%(538/840),χ2=146.23] and proportion of analgesia during labor [54.2%(705/1 300) vs 61.5% (517/840), χ2=11.15] were all higher in 2013 (all P<0.01). (2)The median (minimum–maximum) time span corresponding to a one-centimeter-increase in cervical dilatation was 3-4 cm which corresponded to 2.2 h(0.8-4.3 h), 4-5 cm which corresponded to 1.9 h(0.6-4.0 h), 5-6 cm which corresponded to 1.8 h(0.5-4.0 h), 6-7 cm which corresponded to 1.6 h(0.5-2.0 h), 7-8 cm which corresponded to 1.8 h(0.8-2.0 h), 8-9 cm which corresponded to 1.3 h(0.2-2.5 h), and 9-10 cm which corresponded to 0.6 h(0.1-2.5 h). The curve of labor duration showed a slow uptrend with time on the horizontal axis and cervical dilatation on the vertical axis. Conclusions The curve of labor duration exhibits a slow uptrend with neither an acceleration phase nor a deceleration phase. It is important to redefine the time span of labor duration in China for appropriate clinical treatment.
