Objective To investigate the proportion of follicular fluid CD56~+ natural killer (NK) cells to the total lymphocytes and the ac-tivated CD56~+ NK cells to the total CD56~+ NK cells. To provide an evidence for improving the clinical pregnancy rate in in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment by regulating the function of NK cells. Methods Triple color flow cytometry was used to analyze the proportion of CD56~+ NK cells and activated CD56~+ NK cells in mature follicular fluid. The IVF treatment outcome was closely followed up. The relationship be-tween the proportion of CD56~+ NK cells and activated CD56~+ NK cells and the IVF treatment outcome was analyzed statistically. Results The proportion of CD56~+ NK cells and activated CD56* NK cells in mature follicular fluid of women who got pregnancy by IVF treatment was (15.57±3.10)% and (2.63±0.94)% respectively,while the proportion of the women who didn't get pregnancy was (19.12±5.37)% and (4.06±2.08)% respectively,which was significantly higher than the pregnant group(P< 0.05). Conclusion The women with lower propor-tion of CD56~+ NK cells and activated CD56~+ NK cells in mature follicular fluid of is easier to get pregnancy by IVF. An altered NK cells pro-file in follicular fluid could therefore influence fertility in IVF treatment outcome.

Objective: The cytologic methods were used in the diagnosis of cancerous change of (intraductal papillomas,IP) and its significance was discussed. Methods: We studied the nipple discharge smear by using Wright-Gimsa staining. Meanwhile, infrared ray scanning B-ultrasound and X-rays were performed. Results: One hundred and twenty-eight patients were with IP, among them, 15 (11.7%)were confirmed as tumors by surgery and pathological examination. The cancerous change of cytomorphology was based on IP. The average age of patients with cancerous change was 48.1.The nipple discharge in patients with cancerous change was primarily bloody(66.7%). Conclusion: Introductal papillomas is carcerous. The possibility of canceration in persons with longer time of nipple discharge is larger than those with shorter time of nipple discharge. Women who are elder than 45 years old, with nipple discharge and post menopause, should be considered to have the possibility of cancerous change.

Objective To determine the bacterial composition and antibacterial resistance in female urinary tract infections (UTI) in China. Methods The disc diffusion test, minimum inhibition concentration (MIC), test or E-test was used to detect the antimicrobial susceptibility in 86 tertiary hospitals in China from June 1, 2006 to May 31, 2007. WHONET 5.4 was applied for data analysis. Results A total of 6071 pathogenic germs were collected from urine cultures of UTI female patients in the surveillance period, which included 5958 bacterial isolates. Escheriehia coll 3529 strains (59. 23% ), Enterococcus spp 938 strains (15.74%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae 394 strains (6.61%) were the most common pathogens. Escherichia coli and Klabsiella pneumoniae had 35.7% and 34. 0% extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) positive rates, and their resistant rates to quinolones were about 70% and 40%, respectively. Enterococcus faecium was much more resistant to almost all the antibiotics than Enterococcus faecabs. 0. 9% Escherichia faecalis and 3.8% Escheriehia faecium were resistant to vancomycin, whereas 2.7% and 4. 8% were resistant to teieoplanin. Staphylococcus epdermidis was more common in UT1 than Staphylococcus aureus, 79. 1% and 75.0% of the isolates being methiciUin-ressitant Staphylococcus epdermidis(MRSE) or methicillin-ressitant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), respectively. No vancomycin intermediate or resistant staphylococcus was detected, but 4. 9% teicoplanin intermediate rate was found in Staphylococcus epdermidis. The resistant rates to quinolones increased with the patient age. Condnsions Bacterial resistance in UTI in Chinese females is a severe problem, which could be resulted from antimierobial irrational use. In the selection of antimicrobial agents in the treatment of UTI, doctors should refer to the results of bacterial resistant surveillance.

Objective To systematically evaluate the effectiveness of intermittent nasogastric feeding on enteral nutrition of critical patients. Methods The relevant randomized controlled trials were searched in the Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, JBI Library and the databases of China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Scientific Journal Database by VIP (VIP), Wanfang Database. The studies were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria by two reviewers. Meta- analysis was conducted by using RevMan 5.2. Results Nine RCTs were included involving 558 patients. The results of meta- analysis showed that intermittent nasogastric feeding was greater than continuous pump feeding in the incidence of constipation, OR=0.32, 95%CI 0.14~0.71, P<0.05, the difference was significant. However, they were alike in the incidences of diarrhea, aspiration pneumonia, gastric residuals, vomiting, abdominal distension and effects of nutrition, there was no statistical difference (P>0.05). Conclusions Intermittent nasogastric feeding and continuous pump feeding did not affect the incidence of diarrhea, aspiration pneumonia, gastric residuals, vomiting, abdominal distension and the effects of nutrition. However, the incidence of constipation was significantly less in patients receiving intermittent nasogastric feeding.
