Objective To investigate the efficacy and influence factors of hysteroscopic guiding endometrial resection on dysfunctional uterine bleeding.Methods One hundred and eighty women with dysfunctional uterine bleeding were selected as our subjects in Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Qinhuangdao from Jan.2009 to Jan.2011.One hundred and fifty which meet with operation indications underwent hysteroscopic guiding endometrial resection.Operation periods,blood loss,adverse effects rate were recorded.Serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH),luteinizing hormone (LH),estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P) hormone levels were detected at preoperative and postoperative.The efficacy was recorded at 6 and 12 months after the procedure.Results The average operation time and amount of bleeding were (31.2 ± 11.0)min and (32.3 ± 10.5) ml,and no blood transfusion performed during the operation.All cases got the succeed operation.There were no significant difference in terms of serum FSH,LH,E2 and P concentrations before and after treatment(P ＞0.05).At 6 months after treatment,improvement rate was 64.0％ (96/150),and effective rate was 32.0％ (48/150).The total effective rate was 96.0％ (144/150).At 12 months after treatment,the improvement rate was 58.0％ (87/150),effective rate was 36.0％ (54/150).The total effective rate was 94.0％(141/150).There was significant different in terms of total effective rate between 6 months and 12 months after treatment(x2 =113.6,P ＞ 0.05).Postoperative complications occurred in 2 cases,including 1 cases of abdominal pain,and 1 cases of dysmenorrhea.Uterine cavity depth,age and disease duration were the main factors affect the clinical efficacy.(OR(95 ％ CI):-1.14 (-1.17 to-1.07),1.60 (1.31 to 2.08),-1.02(-1.14 to-1.08),P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Treatment of hysteroscopic guiding endometrial resection on dysfunctional uterine bleeding is proved to be efficacy due to the less adverse reaction.

Objective:To evaluate the accuracy of serum concentration of procalcitonin (PCT) in differential diagnosis of the etiology of bloodstream infections (BSI).Methods:Patients hospitalized in ICU of China-Japan Friendship Hospital from January 2015 to June 2020 with BSI and with PCT test simultaneously when blood drawing for blood culture were enrolled. Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) were calculated based on parameters on the day of blood culture. Difference of various indicators among different pathogen infections were compared. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) Curve was used to analyze the value of PCT in differential diagnosis of BSI by different pathogens.Results:Among 1 456 patients with BSI,1 261 (86.6%) patients with monobacterial infection, 80 (5.5%) patients with candidiasis and 115 (7.9%) patients with mixed infection. The 28-day mortality was 24.5% (356/1 456) and the 60-day mortality was 30.6% (446/1456). Mortality of both 28-day and 60-day in the mixed group was significantly higher than that in the bacteriacemia group and candidemia group. PCT levels was significantly higher in patients with bacteremia caused by gram-negative bacteria (GNB) than that in gram-positive bacteria (GPB) infected bacteremia and candidemia {3.4 μg/L[95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.7-17.0 μg/L] vs 1.3 μg/L (95% CI 0.4-7.3 μg/L); 3.4μg/L (95% CI was 0.7-17.0 μg/L) vs 1.1 μg/L (95% CI was 0.4-3.4 μg/L); P<0.01} . ROC curve analysis showed that: ① the optimal cut-off value of PCT in differential diagnosis of monobacterial bacteremia and candidemia was 7.25 μg/L, with specificity of 90.0% and the area under the ROC curve (AUROC) was 0.612 (95% CI 0.533-0.691). When PCT value was greater than 0.51 μg/L, the sensitivity of diagnostic of bacteremia could reach 73.3%. ② the optimal cut-off value of PCT in differential diagnosis of bacteremia caused by GNB infection and candidemia was 7.32 μg/L, with specificity of 90.0% and AUROC was 0.695 (95% CI 0.614-0.776). When PCT value was greater than 0.51 μg/L, the sensitivity of diagnostic of bacteremia caused by GNB infection was 84.9%.③ the optimal cut-off value of PCT in differential diagnosis of bacteremia caused by GNB and GPB infection was 0.52 μg/L, with sensitivity of 84.9% and AUROC was 0.713 (95% CI 0.672-0.755). When PCT value was greater than 7.36 μg/L, the specificity of diagnostic of bacteremia caused by GNB infection could reach 80.1%. Conclusions:PCT can provide additional information about the possible etiology of patients with BSI, especially as high levels often indicate the possibility of GNB bacteremia.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and the risk factors of gastroduodenal damages induced by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Methods One hundred and eighty-four patients who were prescribed NSA1Ds for long time in rheumatology and cardiovascular clinics were enrolled. Clinical data such as age, sex, medication history and body mass index were recorded. The lesions were estimated by endoscopy and the specimens were tested for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. Results Peptic ulcer was found in 63 (34. 24%) patients including gastric ulcer in 22, duodenal ulcer in 34 and compound ulcer in 7. The endoscopic examination showed that 57 out of 121 patients without peptic ulcer had ≥3 erosive lesions. Logistic regression analysis revealed that H. pylori infection was important risk factor that induced the peptic ulcer in those who were taking NSAIDs for long time (OR = 13. 86, 95% CI: 6. 53 ～ 29. 43). The incidence of gastroduodenal damage was similar in patients taking NSAIDs and low dose aspirin (OR =0.45,95CI:0.16～ 1.28). Conclusions NSAIDs may cause gastroduodenal damages in long-term users and H. pylori infection was an important risk factor. The effect of low dose aspirin on gastroduodenal damages is as same as NSAIDs.

Objective: To discuss the correlation between myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and hepatic trans-planted tumor and to explore new ways to inhibit the development of hepatic cancer. Methods: We established the animal models with H_(22) hepatic carcinoma cells transplanted to the anterior right limb. Then the MDSCs morphology was observed with confocal microscopy and the proportion of MDSCs in blood and spleen was measured with flow cytometry. The 36 mice were divided into three groups: the control group, the low-dose group (2mg/kg) and the high-dose group (4mg/kg). Then As_2O_3 was injected twice a week to the mice before repeating the aforementioned measures. The direct effects of As_2O_3 on MDSCs cultured with H_(22)-ascites supernatant was observed. Results: At 25 days after transplantion, the tumor weight was increased to 5.67g, and the proportion of MDSCs in blood and spleen was increased to 20.46% and 9.50%, re-spectively. There was a positive correlation between hepatic transplanted tumor and MDSCs in blood and spleen and the relative factors were 0.95 and 0.96, respectively (t=-5.270 and 5.939, P<0.05). With the effect of As_2O_3, the proportion of MD-SCs in blood in low-dose group and high-dose group was 11.31% and 10.00% at 28 days after treatment, lower than that in the control group (t=3.193 and 5.486, P<0.05), and there was also a statistical difference between the high-dose group and low-dose group (t=3.066, P<0.05). The proportion of MDSCs in the spleen in low-dose group and high-dose group was 10.90% and 9.04% at 28 days, lower than that in the control group (t=3.586.and 5.279, P<0.05), but there was no statistical difference between the high-dose group and low-dose group (1=1.298, P>0.05). In vitro, the proportion of MDSCs in nutrient fluid was increased to 12.67% at 12 days after treatment with H_(22)-ascites supematant, and was decreased to 7.44% at 18 days after treatment with As_2O_3. Conclusion: The proportion of MDSCs in H_(22) tumor-bearing mice is increased because of tu-mor development. There is a positive correlation between MDSCs and hepatic transplanted tumor. As_2O_3 can decrease MD-SCs and inhibit tumor growth.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVEThe actual evaluation of immunological function is significant for studing the tumor development and devising a treatment in time. The aim of this study is to evaluate the immunological function of advanced lung cancer patients systematically, and to discuss the clinical significance.

METHODSThe nucleated cell amounts of advanced lung cancer patients and the healthy individuals were counted. The immune cell subsets and the levels of IL-4, INF-gamma, perforin and granzyme in CD8+T cells by the flow cytometry were measured. The proliferation activity and the inhibition ratio of immune cells to several tumor cell lines were evaluated by MTT assay.

RESULTSThe absolute amounts and subsets of T, B, NK cells of advanced lung cancer patients were lower than the healthy individuals (P < 0.05); However, the proportion of regulatory T cells of advanced lung cancer patients (4.00 +/- 1.84)% was lower than the healthy individuals (1.27 +/- 0.78)% (P < 0.05). The positive rates of IFN-gamma perforin, granzyme in CD8+T cells decreased while them in IL-4 did not in the advanced lung cancer patients compared to the healthy control group (P < 0.05). The proliferation activity of immune cells, the positive rate of PPD masculine and the inhibition ratio to tumor cells in the advanced lung cancer patients was lower than the healthy subsets obviously (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThere was a significant immune depression in the advanced lung cancer patients compared to the healthy individuals.
