[Summary] From February 2008 to June 2008, two cases of old ectopic pregnancy were misdiagnosed: Case 1 was misdiagnosed as gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD), and Case 2 was misdiagnosed as cornual pregnancy.In order to further confirm the diagnosis, two cases were all given laparoscopic exploration.Surgery confirmed interstitial chronic ectopic pregnancy, leading to a resection of the fallopian tubes and mass lesions.Embryo tissue was pathologically confirmed postoperatively.The diagnosis of old ectopic pregnancy is difficult.Serum hCG determination is often found no positive, and ultrasound examination has no specificity.The clinical images are varied.Detailed medical history inquiry and attention to differential diagnosis are key for the diagnosis of old ectopic pregnancy.

The HLA DQA1 genes of 40 IDDM patients (including 8 cases with onset of diabetes before 14 years of age, 19 between 15-30 years and 13 after 31 years) and 51 healthy controls were studied by using for allele specific oligonucleotide probes. All of our research subjects are of Southern Chinese origin. The results showed that the HLA DQA1 52Arg(+) associated IDDM susceptibility is significantly higher in the group younger than 14 years of age (P

Objective: To explore the ralationship between common used TCM prescriptions and syndrome elements in acute ischemic stroke and to lay a foundation for further study of the correspondence of the prescription and the syndrome. Methods: We extracted the clinical information of 359 patients (451cases) who were in accordance with the inclusive criteria and were given Wendan Decoction, Xinglou Chengqi Decoction, Zhengan Xifeng Decoction and Tianma Gouteng Decoction, Buyang Hanwu Decoction and Banxia Baizhu Tianma Decoction. We investigated the correlation between six prescriptions and six syndrome elements through comparing the mean value of score of each syndrome element which was corresponding to each prescription. Then we obtained their odds ratio by using the multiple logistic regression. Results: The mean value of wind syndrome, fire syndrome and phlegm syndrome were the top three in the cases who drank Wendan Decoction, Xinglou Chengqi Decoction, Zhengan Xifeng Decoction. The mean values of wind syndrome, phlegm syndrome, syndrome of blood stasis were in the top three in the cases who drank Buyang Huanwu Decoction. By analyzing logistic regression, Wendan Decoction had close correlation with phlegm syndrome, Xinglou Chengqi Decoction had close correlation with phlegm syndrome or fire syndrome, Tianma Gouteng Drink had close correlation with syndrome of hyperactivity of yang due to yin deficiency, Buyang Huanwu Decoction had close correlation with syndrome of qi deficiency or syndrome of blood stasis, Banxia Baizhu Tianma Decoction had close correlation with wind syndrom or phlegm syndrome, and the correlations above were all positive, Zhengan Xifeng Decoction had close correlation with phlegm syndrome or syndrome of qi deficiency, and their correlation was negative. Conclusion: The prescription corresponded with the syndrome element, and it was the key points in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate whether CD4~+CD25~(high)regulatory T cells(tregs)were increased in the tumor tissue and peripheral blood of prostate cancer patients.Methods The prevalence of CD4~+CD25~(high)regulatory T cells inside the prostate tumor was detected compared with benign tissue from the same prostate.Furthermore,the frequency of CD4~+CD25~(high)regulatory T cells in peripheral blood was detected in prostate cancer patients compared with normal donors.Results Moreover,CD4~+CD25~(high)regulatory T cells from blood and supernatants from cultured prostate tumor tissue samples exhibited immunosuppressive function in vitro.CD4~+CD25~(high)T normal peripheral blood cells were found for the ratio was(0.5?0.1)%.Lower than the proportion of T cells in peripheral blood of patients with CD4~+CD25~(high)was(2.3?0.7)%,P

Background Laser peripheral iridotomy(LPI) is used as the primary therapy for the eyes at risk of angle closure.But there are still 28% eyes with primary angle closure suspect occur angle closure within 2 years after LPI.It is necessary to explore the associated factors of the efficacy of LPI.Objective The aim of this study was to explore the changes of intraocular pressure(IOP) and anterior chamber angle in the fellow eyes of patients with unilateral acute attack of primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) and analyze the relevant factors influencing the successful rate of LPI.Methods Eighty-seven fellow eyes received LPI from 87 patients with unilateral acute attack of PACG were included in this study and retrospectively analyzed.The IOP and gonioscopy were performed before and 1 week,3,6,9,12 months after LPI.Successful signs of LPI were defined as an IOP 6-21mmHg without any anti-glaucoma medication,none of glaucomatous neuropathy and the coincident visual field loss,and no need of additional glaucomatous medication or surgery.This study was approved by Ethic Committee of the First Hospital of Xinxiang Medical College,and written informed consent was obtained from each patient.Results Seventy-nine eyes of 79 cases finished the medical visit throughout the follow-up duration with the age 61.4±0.4 years and 33(41.8%) males and 46(58.2%) females.The mean IOP was lowed in various time points after LPI in comparison with before operation with the general difference among different time visiting groups(F=4.056,P＜0.01).Shaffer grade was increased in superior,temporal and nasal quadrants and significant differences were found between 1 week group,3 months group or 6 months group and before operation group (P＜0.05).LPI lessened the range of appositional angle closure (AAC) in postoperative 1 week group and 3 months group compared with pre-operative group (P＜0.05),but no statistically significant reduce was seen in range of AAC from 6 months through 12 months after LPI in comparison with pre-operation (P＞0.05).LPI was determined as successful in 61 cases (77.2%) during one-year fellow-up period.Several variables,such as preoperative IOP,Shaffer grade of each quadrant,mean Shaffer grade and the extent of AAC,were significantly different between LPI success and failure group(P＜0.01).Cox stepwise regression analysis found that the success rate was significantly associated with the extent of AAC (Wald=48.150,RR=1.963,P＜0.01) rather than pre-IOP,Shaffer grade of each quadrant,mean Shaffer grade,age and gender (P＞0.05).Conclusion LPI can widen the anterior chamber angle and low IOP in the fellow eyes of PACG attack eyes.The success rate of LPI is associated with the extent of pre-AAC,suggesting that it is necessary for LPI in consideration of the extent of pre-AAC.

Objective To explore the possible effect of combined treatment of zoledronic acid and doxorubicin on proliferation,invasion and adhesion of SGC7901 cell line,and potential underlying mechanisms. Methods MTT and Transwell experiments were used respectively to investigate the effect of different concentrations of zoledronic acid and doxorubicin on the proliferation,adhesion and invasion of SGC7901. The mRNA levels of MMP2, TIMP2, MMP9, ICAM1 and CD44 were quantified by real time PCR. Results Gastric cell line SGC-7901 were incubated with zoledronic acid for 48 h in different concentration of 10-6,10-5,10-4,10-3 mol/L,their inhibition rates were 4.98％,12.19％,27.34％ and 73.13％ separately,which were higher than control group (P＜0.01),and enhanced along with the dose increasing and the time extension (P＜0.05).Gastric cell line SGC-7901 was incubated with zoledronic acid 10-4 mol /L and doxorubicin 0.5 mg/L,respectively,or in combination for 2 h,4 h,6 h,and thereafter,the detected adhesion rates were 5.03％,24.38％ and 59.65％ in control group,4.40％,19.77％ and 51.22％ in zoledronic acid group,4.28％, 18.62％ and 51.02％ in doxorubicin group,4.02 ％,15.02％ and 46.95％ in combination group. The adhesion rates were reduced after incubation with different medicament concentration (P＜0.05).In the study of cell invasion,the cell numbers per high power field were:105.11 ± 10.43,98.37 ± 15.75,96.19 ± 9.24,83.02 ± 19.72 after treatment with zoledronic acid,doxorubicin or their combination at different concentrations. Compared with control, signal medicament had weak effectiveness in invasiveness in SGC-7901 (P＞ 0.05),whereas in combination group it was significantly decreased (P＜0.05).Both zoledronic acid and doxorubicin decreased the mRNA expressions of CD44,MMP2,MMP9,ICAM1 while increased TIMP2 mRNA level (P＜0.05or P＜0.01) versus control.The effect was more evident with combination treatment(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),compared with doxorubicin group. Conclusions Both zoledronic acid and doxorubicin can inhibit the proliferation,adhesion and invasion of SGC7901. Combination treatment has additive effect.It may be related to the down-regulation of mRNA of ICAM1,MMP2,MMP9,CD44 and up-regulation of mRNA of TIMP2.
