Objective To investigate the change of local vaginal microenvironment in atrophic vaginitis after estrogen therapy.Methods A prospective study was conducted in 128 patients with atrophic vaginitis.The patients were treated with estriol cream by vaginal administration,and the efficacy was observed after treatment.Results The PH value was decreased and the detection rate of lactobacilli was significantly increased after estrogen therapy(P＜0.01).Average vaginal health score was also increased (P＜0.01).Interleukin-6 (IL 6) level in vaginal secretion was decreased after the treatment (P＜0.01).Interferon-γ (INF-γ) level was increased obviously after treatment,while there was no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusions Estrogen can significantly improve the local vaginal microenvironment in atrophic vaginitis.Estrogen may regulate the immune function of vagina by reversing the imbalance of Th1/Th2.

Objective To figure out the preliminary clinical value of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography(RT-3DE) in evaluating the systolic dyssynchrony in patients with coronary artery heart disease(CAD).Methods Eighty patients who were suspected as CAD were included in this study.RT-3DE was performed first.After the analysis,we got the data:ejection fraction (EF),16 segments systolic dyssynchronic index (SDI 16).All subjects should take the coronary angiography.According to coronary angiography results,the patients with the vascular stenosis rate ≥50% were defined as the CAD group,and the patients with the vascular stenosis rate <50% were defined as the coronary atherosclerosis group,the patients with the completely normal angiographic results were included in the control group according to the results of angiography.The parametric differences among the groups were compared.Results There was no significant difference in LVEF among the three groups.SDI 16 had no significant difference between the control group and the coronary atherosclerosis group (t=-1.03,P>0.05).However,SDI 16 had significant difference between the control group[(3.72±2.68)%]and the CAD group[(7.14±3.10)%],the same between coronary atherosclerosis group[(5.12±3.46)%]and the CAD group[(7.14±3.10)%](t=-3.71,-2.34,all P<0.05).ROC curve analysis revealed that a cut-off value for SDI of 5.49%,yielded a sensitivity of 81.8%,with a specificity of 73.1% to predict coronary atherosclerosis to CAD(AUC=0.743).Conclusion SDI 16 >5.49% has a higher value in evaluating systolic dyssynchrony in patients with CAD with RT-3D of Siemens Acuson SC2000 ultrasonic diagnostic instrument.

Objective To determine the optimum dose of oxycodone for anesthesia when combined with propofol in the patients undergoing induced abortion.Methods Three hundred patients, aged 18-40 yr, weighing 40-70 kg, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ , undergoing elective induced abortion, were randomly divided into 6 groups (n =50 each) using a random number table: fentanyl group (group F) and different doses of oxycodone groups (Q1-5 groups).In group F, fentanyl 1 μg/kg was intravenously injected.In Q1-5 groups, oxycodone hydrochloride 20, 40, 60, 100 and 150 μg/kg were intravenously injected, respectively.Propofol 2.5 mg/kg was intravenously injected 1 min later in all the patients, and the operation was started when the eyelash reflex disappeared.The occurrence of hypotension, bradycardia, body movement and respiratory depression during operation, and nausea and vomiting within 4 h after operation were recorded.The uterine contraction pain was assessed with numerical rating scale (NRS) at 30 min, 1 h and 4 h after operation.Patient's satisfaction was evaluated at 1 and 4 h after operation.Results With the prolongation of time, NRS score was gradually increased, and the degree of patient's satisfaction was gradually decreased in group F (P＜0.05).With the prolongation of time,NRS score was gradually decreased, and the degree of patient's satisfaction was gradually increased in Q1-2 groups (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in NRS score and degree of patient's satisfaction between Q3-5 groups (P＞0.05).Compared with group F, NRS score was significantly decreased, and the degree of patient's satisfaction was increased at 4 h after operation in Q1-5 groups (P＜0.05).Compared with Q1-2 groups, NRS score was significantly decreased at 30 min and 4 h after operation, and the degree of patient's satisfaction was increased at 4 h after operation in Q3-5 groups (P＜0.05).Among the Q1-5 groups,the incidence of respiratory depression, body movement, and nausea and vomiting was the lowest in group Q4 (P＜0.05).Conclusion When combined with propofol, the optimum dose of oxycodone for anesthesia is 100 μg/kg in the patients undergoing induced abortion.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of anatomic M-mode echocardiography (AMM)for pristine diagnosis of myocardial ischemia in patients with coronary heart diseases (CAD).Methods 44 inner patients who were suspected as CAD were detected.Ordinary ultrasound was performed first.The ventricular segmental wall thickness and amplitude were measured by AMM.Then,we got the ventricular wall thickening fractions.All subjects should take the coronary angiography after the ultrasound examination in 1 -3 days.Patients with the vascular stenosis rate≥50% were defined as the CAD group,patients with the completely normal angiographic results were included in the normal control group according to the results of angiography.The parametric differences between the patients and the normal control subjects were compared.Results In the normal control subjects,the ventricular segmental wall amplitude >5mm accounted for 78.67%,the ventricular wall thickening fractions >30% accounted for 99.13%.But in CAD group,the ventricular segmental wall amplitude <4mm accounted for 61.14%,<5mm accounted for 93.47%,the abnormal ventricular wall thickening fractions <30% accounted for 88.43%.The sensitivity, specificity,accuracy of AMM were 77.47%,90.00%,77.39% respectively.Conclusion The ventricular wall thickening fractions of AMMhas quite significant correlation with morbid blood vessel in patients with CAD,they are effective reference indicators to evaluate the left ventricular wall motion quantitatively.

OBJECTIVE:To analyze the risk factors of adverse reaction in children induced by Azithromycin for injection. METHODS:Data and medication of 428 children used Azithromycin for injection were retrospectively collected,and logistic re-gression method was used to analyze the risk factors of adverse reactions that likely to occur. RESULTS:In the 428 children,98 re-ported adverse reactions with incidence of 22.9%,among which,53 showed gastrointestinal adverse reactions (12.4%),22 showed pain in injection site(5.1%),12 showed phlebitis(2.8%),4 showed pruritus(0.9%),2 showed rash(0.5%),3 showed liver function abnormalities(0.7%),1 showed thrombocytopenia(0.2%)and 1 showed drowsiness(0.2%). According to adverse reactions diagnostic criteria,24 were sure,23 were very likely and 51 were possible. Logistic regression analysis showed younger age [OR=0.811,95% CI(0.754,0.842),P=0.000] and long duration [OR=0.1.357,95% CI(1.212,1.519),P=0.000] might the rick factors that caused adverse reactions. CONCLUSIONS:Younger age and long duration are the possible rick factors that caused adverse reactions in children after intravenous administration of azithromycin,close observation and controlling duration should be noticed to reduce the incidence of adverse reactions in children medication.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of linezolid resistance in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis ( MRSE) strains isolated in Hangzhou area. Methods Twenty-three linezolid-re-sistant Staphylococcus epidermidis ( LRSE) strains were isolated from the patients with septicaemia, urinary tract infection or infectious pleuritis in several hospitals in Hangzhou area during May, 2013 to April, 2015. The minimal inhibition concentrations ( MICs) of thirteen different antibiotics against the LRSE strains were detected by using E-test. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis ( PFGE) and cluster analysis were performed for homology analysis. Correlations between linezolid resistance in the LRSE strains and G2576T mutation at theⅤ functional region of 23S rRNA gene or cfr gene were determined by PCR and sequencing analysis. Re-sults The MICs of linezolid to 15 LRSE strains were higher than 256 μg/ml while to the other 8 LRSE strains were 6 or 8 μg/ml. All of the 23 LRSE strains were resistant to both oxacillin and cefoxitin. Among the LRSE strains with high linezolid MICs (MIC>256 μg/ml), LRSE1 and LRSE2, LRSE3-LRSE6 and LRSE9-LRSE12 respectively belonged to the same clone line and came from the same hospital. All of the 23 LRSE strains carried the cfr gene. Moreover, the G2576T mutation at theⅤfunctional region of 23S rRNA gene was detected in the 15 LRSE strains with high linezolid MICs ( MIC>256 μg/ml ) , but not in the 8 strains with lower linezolid MICs ( MIC=6 or 8 μg/ml) . Conclusion There are significant differences in linezolid resistance among LRSE strains isolated in Hangzhou area. The LRSE strains are methicillin-resist-ant coagulase negative Staphylococcus ( MRCNS) strains and widely distributed. The linezolid resistance in LRSE strains is related to the G2576T mutation at theⅤfunctional region of 23S rRNA gene and cfr gene.

Objective To investigate whether early goal-directed therapy ( EGDT ) could lower the mortality rate in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock. Methods Articles with items sepsis, severe sepsis, septic shock, EGDT were retrieved from MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane, Wanfang Data and CNKI. Inclusion criteria included randomized controlled trial, subjects concerning patients with severe sepsis or septic shock, endpoints with short-term mortality [ in-hospital, intensive care unit ( ICU ) or 28-day ] and long-term mortality ( 60-day or 90-day ). Related risk ( RR ) and 95% confidence interval ( 95%CI ) were used as indices to judge the difference in mortality rate between EGDT group and standard treatment group. RevMan 5.2 software was used for Meta analysis. Results There were 8 studies meeting inclusive criteria with a total of 4 853 patients. For patients with severe sepsis and septic shock, compared with the group with routine treatment, EGDT showed a decrease in the short-term mortality ( RR = 0.74, 95%CI=0.66-0.82, P<0.000 01 ), but did not decrease the long-term mortality ( RR=0.99, 95%CI=0.92-1.06, P=0.81 ). Conclusion EGDT strategy may decrease the short-term mortality in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock, but it showed no influence on the long-term mortality.

Objective:To report a Chinese family with a novel ABCD1 gene mutation at c.332T>G (p.V111G) site and discuss its clinical characteristics and molecular mechanism.Methods:The clinical data, laboratory examination, and imaging examination results were analyzed to make the clinical diagnosis of a middle-aged onset patient from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in May 2017. High-throughput sequencing was used to discover a novel ABCD1 gene mutation. Sanger sequencing was used to find out whether other family members contain the same ABCD1 gene mutation. The pathogenicity of this mutation was explored by protein structure prediction and pathogenicity analysis. Adrenoleukodystrophy protein-green fluorescent protein (ALDP-GFP) and ALDP-GFP (V111G) plasmids were constructed and human embryonic kidney 293 cells were transfected, then immunofluorescence and Western blotting were used to explore the molecular mechanism of this mutation (completed in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital).Results:The proband (a 39-year-old male) was diagnosed as adrenomyeloneuropathy, a subset of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, with a novel heterozygous missense mutation in the ABCD1 gene at c.332T>G (p.V111G) site, and his mother and two daughters were all carriers. Protein structure prediction and pathogenicity results suggested that this mutation is pathogenic. Overexpression of ALDP-GFP (V111G) in the human embryonic kidney 293 cells resulted in a significant decrease in the expression levels of ALDP and the abnormal localization from the peroxisomal membrane to the cytoplasm, accompanied by significant down-regulation of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ and beclin-1.Conclusion:c.332T>G (p.V111G) is a novel pathogenic mutation in the ABCD1 gene, which causes adrenomyeloneuropathy by impairing autophagy.
