Objective To study the blood pressure changing patterns in normal pregnancy and pregnancy induced hypertension(PIH). Methods 24 hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) were performed in 38 cases of normal pregnancy and 36 cases of PIH during 18~20,28~30 and 38~40 gestational week. Results The 24 hour mean blood pressure were increased with pregnancy advanced. In normal pregnancy, a typical circadian rhythm of blood pressure pattern was shown that it increases during the day and decreased during the night with the disparity of (16.3? 4.1)%, (14.1?3.2)% and (15.7?2.0)% in three different gestational week respectively. In moderate and severe PIH, the 24 hour mean blood pressure,blood pressure load and the frequence of abnormal rhythm were significantly higher than those in mild PIH and normal pregnancy, while the disparity between day and night blood pressure was lower. Conclusion The blood pressure patterns show a typical circadian rhythm in most normal pregnancy. The more severe the PIH is, the higher rate of abnormal blood pressure rhythm occured.

Objective To explore the relationship of hepatitis B virus surface antigen(HBsAg)infec-tion and family history of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)with age at primary liver cancer. Methods Totally 1 359 cases of primary liver cancer were enrolled. Their data of sex,HBsAg status and family history informa-tions of liver cancer were analyzed on the associations with diagnosis age. Results Of the 1 359 cases,1 053 were males and 306 were females,their average age at diagnosis was(54. 02 ± 10. 47)years(20-84 years). For HBsAg positive cases,the average age at diagnosis was 51. 99,significantly younger than that of HBsAg negative cases(61. 23),t = 13. 51,P = 0. 000. Cases with family history of HCC were diagnosed at a signifi-cantly earlier age than those without family history(52. 53 vs 55. 23,t = 4. 389,P = 0. 000). In HBsAg posi-tive cases,the average age at diagnosis showed a significant difference not only between males and females (51. 18 vs 54. 89,t = 5. 353,P = 0. 000),but also between cases with family history and cases without family history(51. 33 vs 52. 62,t = 2. 233,P = 0. 026). In HBsAg negative cases,the average age at diagnosis of males and females were 60. 83 and 62. 45 respectively(t = 1. 126,P = 0. 261). The average age at diagnosis of cases with family history and cases without family history were 59. 58 and 61. 92 respectively(t = 1. 728,P =0. 085),both showed no significant difference. Conclusion Cases of primary liver cancer with positive-HBsAg are diagnosed averagely 9. 24 years younger than those with negative-HBsAg in Qidong. Sex and family history of HCC significantly advance hepatocarcinogenesis only in HBsAg positive individuals,not in HBsAg negative individuals.

Objective:
To evaluate the impact of bleomycin/etoposide/cisplatin (BEP) and paclitaxel/carboplatin (PC) chemotherapy regimens on the fertility and prognostic outcomes in malignant ovarian germ cell tumor (MOGCT) patients who underwent fertility-sparing surgery (FSS).
Methods:
A propensity score matching algorithm was performed between the BEP and PC groups. The χ2 test and the Kaplan-Meier method were used to compare the fertility outcome, disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). The Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to identify risk factor of DFS.
Results:
We included 213 patients, 185 (86.9%) underwent BEP chemotherapy, and 28 (13.1%) underwent PC chemotherapy. The median age was 22 years (range, 8–44 years), and the median follow-up period was 63 months (range, 2–191 months). Fifty-one (29.3%) patients had a pregnancy plan, and 35 (85.4%) delivered successfully. In the before and after propensity score matching cohorts, there were no significant differences in spontaneous abortion, selective termination of pregnancy, during-pregnancy status, and live birth between the BEP and PC groups (p>0.05). Fourteen (6.6%) patients experienced recurrence, including 11 (5.9%) in the BEP group and 3 (10.7%) in the PC group. Four (1.9%) patients in the BEP group died. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed no significant differences in DFS (p=0.328) and OS (p=0.446) between the BEP and PC groups, and the same survival results were observed in the after matching cohort.
Conclusion
The PC regimen is as safe as the BEP regimen for MOGCT patients with fertility preservation treatment, and no differences were observed in fertility and clinical prognosis.

Objective:
Exploring the molecular characteristic of global and Shenzhen district H5N6 and H7N9 influenza viruses HA untranslated regions(UTRs).
Methods:
Mega7.0 and DNAStar 7.1.0 were used to construct phylogenetic tree and nucleotide analysis.
Results:
From 2014 to 2015, 3 strains of H5N6 influenza virus from Shenzhen were compared with the other H5NX influenza viruses, the nucleotide homology of HA-3’UTR was 77.4%-100%, which did not have obvious mutated sites. The nucleotide homology of H5N6-HA-5’UTR was 91.7%-100%, and the sites of 24 and 31 sites were mutated. From 2013 to 2014, 11 strains of H7N9 influenza virus from Shenzhen were compared with the other H7NX influenza viruses, the nucleotide homology of H7N9-HA-5’UTR was 76.8%-100%, which had multi-mutated sites on 2-6, 9, 10, 12 and 15-17 positions.
Conclusions
HA-UTR from human-infected H5N6 and H7N9 influenza viruses isolated in Shenzhen district has unique molecular characteristics, its conserved region has relatively high homology and the segment-specific region has genetic polymorphism.
