Objective To study the effect of mecobalamine treatment on acute cerebral infarction combined with high homocysteine (Hcy) and post-stroke depression.Methods A total of 160 cerebral infarction patients with high Hcy were collected from January 2010 to December 2011 in our hospital.Patients were randomly divided into two groups:the control group (n=80,with routine therapy) and the treatment group (n=80,with routine therapy plus intramuscular injection with folic acid 500μg for 8 weeks).The plasma concentration of Hcy was determined by fluoresene polarization immunoassay.The improvement of depression,anxiety and life skills in patients were assessed by selfmade questionnaires and self-reporting inventory (SLC 90).Results There were no significant differences in plasma Hcy level in control group before versus after treatment [(21.86±4.76) μmol/L vs.(18.67±3.81) μmol/L,t=0.40,P＞0.05].Compared with before treatment,plasma Hcy level in treatment group was significantly reduced 4 weeks after treatment [(11.66 ± 3.28) μmol/L vs.(22.68±5.16) μmol/L,t=2.55,P＜0.01].There was a significant difference in plasma Hcy level between the treatment group and the control group after treatment [(11.66 ±3.28) μmol/L vs.(18.67±3.81) μmol/L,t=7.40,P＜0.01].TheSCL-90 total score,positive symptom items score,the total score and the average score of positive symptom items were significantly lower in treatment group after treatment than in treatment group before treatment (t=2.04,2.97,5.45,4.21,all P＜0.05) and in control group after treatment (t 7.40,7.58,12.78,4.15,all P＜0.05).The improvement on symptomatic patterns including somatization,obsessive-compulsive problems,interpersonal sensitivity,depression,anxiety and fear were better in treatment group after treatment than in treatment group before treatment (t 2.34,2.28,2.51,2.19,3.40,2.35,allP＜0.05) and in control group after treatment (t=4.10,5.04,5.12,4.18,5.48,5.20,all P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in the improvement in paranoid ideation between the treatment group before and after treatment (t=1.40,P＞0.05),between the treatment group and the control group after treatment (t=1.48,P＞0.05),and between the control group before and after treatment (P＞0.05).Conclusions Mecobalamine can effectively reduce plasma Hcy level in cerebral infarction patients with high plasma Hcy,and alleviate the symptoms of anxiety,depression,nervousness and other emotions.

Objective:To find out markers of endometriosis. Methods: The two dimensional gel images of proteins extracted from eutopic endometrium from endometriosis patients and controls were analyzed by software Phoretix 2D,and the proteins expressed differently were identified primarily by query of data base.The proteins extracted from ectopic endometrium of ovarian endometriosis were transferred from two dimensional gel onto nitrocellulose membranes,followed by incubation with sera from women with and without endometriosis. Analyzed by MALDI-TOF-MS,the proteins hybridized differently were identified through their Peptide Mass Footprints. Results: Having compared the reproducible two dimensional gel images of proteins from eutopic endometrium of women with and without endometriosis,we obtained 11 proteins expressed differently.Through Western Blot technique,we found three proteins hybridized differently which were identified as vimentin,?-actin and ATP synthase ? subunit respectively. Conclusion: The protein expression spectra of eutopic endometrium from patients with endometriosis are significantly different from those of the controls,and the anti-endometrial autoantibodies against vimentin, ?-actin and ATP synthase ? subunit may be induced.

Objective To retrospectively summarize the diagnosis and treatment experience of acute renal failure caused by urinary calculi obstruction in infants under the age of 6 months in order to improve the level of treat-ment. Methods Between January 2010 and December 2014,15 infants under the age of 6 months with bilateral urinary tract calculi obstruction leading to acute renal failure were treated in West China Hospital,Sichuan University. All cases were Tibetan(10 males,5 females). The ages ranged from 1 month 15 days to 5 months 24 days. The weights ranged from 3. 5 to 7. 0 kg. The clinical characteristics,treatment and clinical outcome were analyzed. Results A total of 9 infants(5 males,4 females)were assessed to be able to tolerate general anesthesia surgery and received positive conservative treatment before operation,and obstruction relief within 6 hours of admission. Six infants (5 males, 1 female)with serious internal milieu disorder,pneumonia,and shock,were assessed as critical cases,who could not tolerate general anesthesia surgery temporarily. Under the emergency blood purification support,they received anti -infection,spasmolysis,rehydration,to correct the internal milieu disorder and obstruction relief within 12 hours of admis-sion. Serum potassium,creatinine returned to normal 12 - 48 hours after obstruction relief. Stone specimens were obtained from 5 cases,and the stone compositions were calcium oxalate stone in 3 cases,calcium oxalate and carbonate apatite mixed stone in 2 cases. A total of 13 cases need further urolithiasis treatment. Conclusions The infants under the age of 6 months with bilateral urinary tract calculi obstruction are more severe with more complications. The emergency treatment principle is to save lives,then relieve the obstruction;surgery should be as brief as possible,since removing the stones is not the primary purpose. If the infants are in critical,life - threatening circumstances,and cannot tolerate general anesthesia surgery,the blood purification will be helpful to gain time and create conditions for treatment.
