Objective To explore the associations of the genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily D, polypeptide 6 (CYP2D6) and cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily C, polypeptide 9 (CYP2C9) with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia and the efficacy of labetalol therapy. Methods Totally 105 gravidas diagnosed with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia (experimental group) and 103 healthy gravidas (control group) were recruited from Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital between August 2013 and July 2016. Labetalol was given to control blood pressures in gravidas with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia. If labetalol administration alone did not exceed the mean dose (100 mg, one dose per eight hours) and effectively controlled the blood pressures, it would be considered to be valid (n=75), otherwise it would be viewed as an invalid treatment. Genotype and allele frequencies of CYP2C9 gene (rs1057910 and rs4918758) and CYP2D6 gene (rs1065852, rs28371725, rs35742686 and rs3892097) in the gravidas were analyzed by TaqMan probe polymerase chain reaction. Differences in the genotype and allele frequencies were compared between the experimental and control groups, and the valid and invalid labetalol treatment groups. Chi-square test, analysis of variance and LSD test were used as statistical methods. Results The gravidas in both experimental and control groups were AA genotype in CYP2C9 gene rs1057910, TT genotype in CYP2D6 gene rs35742686 and CC genotype in CYP2D6 gene rs3892097. Frequencies of CC and CT genotypes in CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group [18.1% (19/105) vs 14.6% (15/103);56.2% (59/105) vs 42.7% (44/103); χ2=6.707], and higher C allele frequency in CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 was also observed in the experimental group [46.2% (97/210) vs 35.9% (74/206), χ2=4.529] (all P<0.05). No statistical differences in maternal age, diastolic pressure, body mass index before pregnancy, serum triglyceride, creatinine and neonatal birth weight were observed among women with CC, CT or TT genotype of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 in the experimental group (all P>0.05). Compared with the gravidas with CT or TT genotype of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725, those with CC genotype had longer gestational age [(32.5±2.1) vs (29.5±1.8) and (29.8±2.2) weeks] and higher plasma albumin [(27.2±9.3) vs (20.3±10.4) and (22.5±7.4) g/L], but lower systolic pressure and 24 hours urine protein (LSD test, all P<0.05). The G allele frequency in CYP2D6 gene rs1065852 in invalid labetalol treatment group was higher than that in valid labetalol treatment group [93.3% (56/60) vs 76.0% (114/150), χ2=8.351, P=0.004]. Conclusions The polymorphism of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 may be associated with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia, and the allele of G in CYP2D6 gene rs1065852 may be associated with the efficacy of labetalol in treatment of early-onset severe pre-eclampsia.

Objective To compare the diagnostic performance of multi-contrast atherosclerosis characterization (MATCH) and magnetization-prepared rapid acquisition gradient-echo (MPRAGE) for the detection of IPH with histologic analysis as the reference standard.Methods Thirty individuals were collected in this study.They were diagnosed to have carotid stenosis＞50％ by ultrasound and scheduled for carotid endarterectomy from 2014 to 2015.3 T carotid MR examinations using MPRAGE,MATCH and 3D TOF were performed in these patients.Axial images covered all plaques and centered at the bifurcation of the carotid artery.All image data sets were processed on a semi-automatic software (MRI-Plaque View,VPDiagnostics,US) to analyze the component of IPH for vulnerable plaques.The consistency between MATCH and MPRAGE was analyzed by using Cohen Kappa analysis.Comparison of the two sequences to the pathological results was performed in a similar manner.The sensitivity and specificity of the two sequences were obtained.The SNR,CNR and contrast ratio(CR) of the two regions of interest were calculated and Wilcoxon rank sum test was used to compare the difference between the two methods.Results Among 30 patients,a total of 602 available sections and 95 correponding histology specimens were included in the analysis.When all 602 available sections were included in the analysis,MATCH yielded good agreement with MPRAGE(Kappa=0.773) on the detection of IPH.With pathological specimens as the gold standard,moderate to good agreement was shown for both MATCH and MPRAGE (Kappa=0.778,0.685).The sensitivity and specificity for the detection of IPH was 93.2％ (68/73) and 90.9％ (20/22) for MATCH.For MPRAGE,the sensitivity and specificity was 87.7％(64/73) and 90.9％(20/22) respectively.The difference between MATCH and MPRAGE was statistically significant for SNR,CNR and CR.That is to say,SNR and CNR of MPRAGE were higher than those of MATCH(P＜0.05),while CR of MATCH was higher than that of MPRAGE(P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared to the MPRAGE sequence,MATCH technique demonstrates similar diagnostic performance for the detection of IPH.

Objective To summarize the modeling methods and standards of thyroid cancer,to provide reference for the establishment of thyroid cancer animal model close to the clinical syndrome of Chinese and Western medicine,and to promote the progress of clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods The modeling methods and characteristics of animal models of thyroid cancer in CNKI,Wanfang,Web of Science and PubMed databases were analyzed and summarized.The advantages and disadvantages were evaluated,and the coincidence degree with the clinical characteristics of traditional Chinese and Western medicine was analyzed.Results There are many modeling methods for thyroid cancer animal models,which are mainly divided into four types:spontaneous,induced,genetic engineering and transplantation models.Genetic engineering mouse models include transgenic models,gene knockout models,gene replacement models and the latest reported restricted mouse models.Among them,the genetic engineering mouse model and the transplanted mouse model have a high clinical coincidence,and the spontaneous and induced tumor model have a low clinical coincidence.Conclusion It is one of the important directions for future research on thyroid cancer to establish an animal model consistent with"TCM syndrome"and"Western medicine diagnostic criteria".

We reported a female fetus diagnosed with X-linked dominant chondrodysplasia punctata 2 with severe phenotype. The fetus was found with abnormal short limbs, thick metaphysis on the right lower limb and a narrow and small thorax by prenatal ultrasound at 24+5 weeks of gestation. Non-invasive prenatal test indicated the risks of trisomies 21, 18 and 13 were low. The pregnancy was terminated at 27 weeks of gestation and postnatal X-ray imaging showed that the fetus had short femur and humerus, a narrow and small thorax, thickened metaphysis with a "splashed paint spot" pattern, and asymmetric shortened lower limbs. Whole-exome analysis showed that the fetus carried a heterozygous pathogenic mutation c.440G>A (p.Arg147His) in the EBP gene. The mutation was confirmed to be a de novo mutation as neither of her parents carried the same mutation. Thus, the patient was diagnosed as having X-linked dominant chondrodysplasia punctata 2. The severe phenotype of this case migh be related to random X chromosome inactivation.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of color Doppler ultrasound guided small incision in repairing penile fracture.Methods Sixteen cases of penile fracture single cavernosum rupture adopted the preoperative positioning by color Doppler ultrasound,hematoma removal and albuginea repair.The clinical effect was evaluated after operation.Results The albuginea rupture was smoothly found in 15 cases,1 case was converted to coronary sulcus annular degloving incision.The operation time was 20-60 min with a mean of 35 min;the postoperative hospital stay was 3.0-6.0 d with a mean of 4.8 d;the catheter removal was on postoperative 3-5 d,urination was unobstructed.Follow up lasted for 6-12 months,1 case appeared transient erectile dysfunction,the harden was touched during erection in 1 case,and other cases had no obvious complication occurrence.Conclusion The color Doppler ultrasound can locate the rupture of corpora cavernosa penis and albuginea.Selecting color Doppler ultrasound guided small incision in repairing penile fracture has small trauma and less complications,and can get satisfactory effect.

Spinal cord injury(SCI)is a severe central nervous system disease with poor prognosis,and the resulting severe sensory,motor or autonomic dysfunction greatly reduces patients'quality of life.Although considerable progress has been made in the treatment and care of SCI,the clinical efficacy and prognosis of SCI are not satisfactory due to the inability of drugs to be delivered directly to the site of SCI through the blood-spinal cord barrier and the fact that the local microenvironment after SCI is not conducive to the survival,differentiation,and proliferation of implanted stem cells.Due to its excellent mechanical properties,plasticity,and good biocompatibility and biodegradability,hydrogel can be used as a delivery system for loading stem cells or drugs,providing a favorable environment and controlling their release,and as a biological scaffold to support and guide axonal regeneration,which can effectively improve the therapeutic effect of spinal cord injury.This paper mainly reviews the classification and functional properties of hydrogels,and further discusses the research progress of hydrogels in SCI repair to improve the inhibitory microenvironment of spinal cord injury,promote nerve regeneration,promote angiogenesis,and promote the repair of the blood-spinal cord barrier,with the aim of providing a theoretical basis for the clinical application of hydrogels in the treatment of SCI as well as for exploring and developing future spinal cord regeneration strategies.

Objective To study the effect of lentiviral vector of MicroRNA-126 on survival differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells under ischemic condition.Methods Lentiviral vector of MicroRNA-126 was constructed and then transfected into mouse mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).Flow detection was used to detect transfection ability and synthesis of collagen type Ⅰ.ELISA was used to detect osteocalcin,Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) in cell culture supernatant.Mandibular bone defect model was constructed and then injected the hydrogel mixed with MSCs.After 48h,the survival rate and proportion of differentiation into osteoblasts was determined.Results Flow results showed lentiviral vector of MicroRNA-126 could transfected into MSCs.ELISA results showed that MicroRNA-126 lentiviral vector transfected MSCs secreted more bone gla protein and IGF-1 and TGF-β,which increased by 1.43,1.87 and 2.63 times compared with the control virus treated group.Animal experiments showed the number of stem cells survived in the MicroRNA-126 group was 4.56 times that of the control group and the percentage of MSC differentiation into osteoblasts was 75％,which is 3.95 times more than that in the control group.Conclusion The research shows that lentiviral vector of MicroRNA-126 could maintain MSCs survival and differentiation under ischemic condition.

Objective:To explore the heterogeneity of behavioral problems and cognitive function of three subtypes of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD), and to analyze the related factors of cognitive function.Methods:The outpatients with ADHD were evaluated by Wechsler children′s intelligence test (C-WISC), SNAP-Ⅳ parental rating scale (SNAP-Ⅳ), Conners parental symptom questionnaire (PSQ) and 12 online cognitive function tests. The differences of behavioral problems and cognitive function of children with different subtypes of ADHD, and the correlation between their intelligence level, PSQ, SNAP-Ⅳ and cognitive function were compared by SPSS 22.0 software.Results:The results of PSQ questionnaire showed that ADHD-C ((1.11±0.59), (1.59±0.58), (1.62±0.50)) had higher behavior problems, impulse-hyperactivity and hyperactivity index than ADHD-I ((0.64±0.27), (1.01±0.54), (1.09±0.32)) and ADHD-HI ((0.75±0.35), (1.22±0.58), (1.05±0.38)) ( F=9.374, F=7.644, F=15.176, P<0.05), while ADHD-C (2.01±0.55) had higher learning problems than ADHD-I (1.66±0.58) and ADHD-HI (1.16±0.43) ( F=11.709, P<0.05). In terms of cognitive function, there were differences in language understanding ability, digital reasoning ability, sequence relationship and short-term memory ability ( χ2=6.734, 7.192, 7.822, 8.646, all P<0.05) among the three groups of ADHD children. ADHD-HI (4.00(4.00, 5.00), 5.00(4.25, 6.00), 5.00(4.00, 7.00)) had better language understanding ability, digital reasoning ability and sequence relationship than ADHD-I (3.00(2.00, 5.00), 3.00(2.50, 6.00), 4.00(3.00, 5.50)). The short-term memory ability of ADHD-HI (5.00(4.00, 6.00)) and ADHD-C (5.00(4.00, 6.00)) were better than that of ADHD-I (4.00(3.00, 5.00)). The intellectual structure of ADHD children was positively correlated with spatial cognitive ability, sequential relationship, Raven reasoning test, short term memory span and Wisconsin card sorting test ( r=0.25-0.57, all P<0.05). Children′s learning problems and psychosomatic problems were negatively correlated with their digital comprehension ability ( r=-0.26, -0.25, both P<0.05). Conclusion:The behavioral problems and cognitive function of children with different subtypes of ADHD are different and have a certain correlation.

Objective:To assess the current state of care for Severe Postpartum Hemorrhage(SPPH)in refer-ral centers and non-referral centers,and to propose enhanced strategies for the regional prevention and manage-ment of SPPH.Methods:The clinical data of patients with SPPH,defined as postpartum blood loss≥1500 ml or transfusion of blood products≥1000 ml,in two districts of Beijing from January 2021 to June 2023 were retrospec-tively analyzed.A total of 201 cases of SPPH were included and they were divided into 125 cases in the referral center group and 76 cases in the non-referral center group based on whether they were city level referral centers.The clinical characteristics between these two groups were compared.Furthermore,a stratified analysis was con-ducted using a Logistic regression model to identify the risk factors associated with massive postpartum hemor-rhage,defined as postpartum hemorrhage≥4000 ml,transfusion requirements exceeding suspended red blood cells(RBC)>10 U and(or)plasma>1000 ml.Results:Analysis of cases presenting with SPPH between the two study groups showed that patients in the referral center group exhibited advanced maternal age,smaller gestation-al weeks at delivery and a higher proportion of high-risk factors compared to those in the non-referral center group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The primary cause of SPPH in the referral center group was placental factors,while uterine atony was identified as the main factor in the non-referral center group,and this difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Additionally,within the non-referral center group,there was a higher amount of blood loss during cesarean section,lower proportion of B-Lynch suture/vascular suture ligation,and higher proportion of uterine packing(P<0.05).Furthermore,compared to the referral center group,there were significantly higher incidences of plasma transfution volume,return to operating room for further inter-vention or exploratory laparotomy procedures after initial delivery and complications related to postpartum hemor-rhage observed in the non-referral center group(P<0.05).Moreover,it was noted that there were more cases of massive postpartum hemorrhagic disease reported in the non-referral center group than in the referral center group(P<0.05).In massive postpartum hemorrhage cases analyzed,referring centers had a higher percentage of patients presenting with multiple high-risk factors for postpartum hemorrhage during pregnancy when compared to non-referring centers(71.4%vs.33.3%,P<0.05).Placental factors accounted for majority causes leading to hemorrhage within referring centers(57.1%),whereas both uterine atony and placental factors played major roles within non-referring centers′cases(42.9%,28.6%).The multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that non-referral center delivery(aOR 3.47,95%CI 1.40-9.18)and a history of multiple intrauterine operations(aOR 12.63,95%CI 1.24-131.30)were identified as significant risk factors for massive postpartum hemor-rhage.Conclusions:The outcomes of high-risk pregnant women referral management in the region exhibit an im-provement,necessitating the reinforcement of training in non-referral midwifery institutions regarding identification of high-risk factors,surgical suture techniques,and comprehensive SPPH management to avert excessive bleed-ing and blood transfusion.

Objective: To investigate the effect of incisor retraction on three-dimensional morphology of upper airway and fluid dynamics in class Ⅰ adult patients with bimaxillary protrusion. Methods: Thirty class Ⅰ patients with bimaxillary protrusion that received fixed orthodontic treatment in Department of Stomatology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2011 to September 2014 were selected using random number table. All the patients were treated with extraction of four first premolars and retraction of anterior teeth using implant anchorage. Cone-beam CT (CBCT) scans were performed before and after incisor retraction for all patients. The CBCT data of the upper airway were constructed using Mimics 16.0, and the flow field characteristics inside the upper airway were simulated using Ansys 14.0. The changes of volume (V), mean cross-sectional area (mCSA), maximum lateral diameters/maximum anteroposterior diameters (LP/AP) of cross section, the maximum pressure of airflow (P_max), the minimum pressure of airflow (P_min) and pressure drop (△P) of nasopharynx, oropharynx and hypopharynx before and after incisor retraction were measured and compared using paired t test. The correlation between the variation of △P in the most significant pharyngeal part and the morphological variables after incisor retraction was analyzed using Pearson correlation test. Results: No statistical differences were observed in the morphology and flow field in nasopharynx before and after incisor retraction (P>0.05). Before incisor retraction, the oropharyngeal volume and mCSA were (7 580±622) mm³ and (217±40) mm², respectively, and the hypopharyngeal volume and mCSA were (2 564±162) mm³, and (239±43) mm², respectively. After incisor retraction, the volumes of oropharynx and hypopharynx were (6 885±601) mm³ and (2 535±156) mm³, respectively, and mCSA of oropharynx and hypopharynx were (197±37) mm² and (236±42) mm², respectively. The volume and mCSA of oropharynx and hypopharynx were significantly decreased after incisor retraction (P<0.05). The greatest changes in pharyngeal volume and mCSA occurred in the oropharynx. In addition, the LP/AP of oropharynx after incisor retraction was changed from 1.9±0.6 to 2.1±0.7, which was significantly increased compared with the levels before incisor retraction (P<0.05). After simulation of pharyngeal airflow, the oropharyngeal P_min, hypopharyngeal P_max and P_min were (-13.7±4.3), (-8.3±3.8) and (-42.8±9.5) Pa, respectively, whereas the values turned to (-16.4±6.5), (-11.9±3.6) and (-46.0±11.0) Pa, respectively after incisor retraction, which was significantly reduced (P<0.05). △P of oropharynx was significantly increased from (42.7±10.1) Pa to (45.2±13.0) Pa after incisor retraction (P<0.05) and the variation of oropharyngeal △P was negatively correlated with the variation of V and mCSA in oropharynx before and after incisor retraction (r=-0.681, P=0.001; r=-0.844, P=0.000). Conclusions The oropharynx was constricted and the pharyngeal resistance was increased after incisor retraction in adult class Ⅰ patients with bimaxillary protrusion. A comprehensive and systematic evaluation of the pharyngeal morphology and ventilatory function were very important for making a scientific and rational clinical treatment plan.
