Objective To evaluate the safety and feasibility of hysteroscopy in the treatment of endogenous type cesarean section scar pregnancy (CSP). Methods Clinical data of 58 cases of CSP from August 2012 to February 2014 in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively.Thirty-one cases were treated by hysteroscopy,while 27 cases were treated by laparoscopy.The intraoperative blood loss,operation time,postoperative hospital stay,postoperative drainage of uterine cavity,β-hCG level resolution time and time to menstruous restoration were compared between the two groups. Results The intraoperative blood loss,operation time,length of hospitalization after operation,and time to menstruous restoration were statistically lower in the hysteroscopy group than those in the laparoscopy group [(109 ±59)ml vs.(143 ±63)ml,t =-2.121 ,P =0.038;(43.7 ±17.5)min vs.(100.8 ±18.8)min,t =-1 1 .974,P =0.000;(3.8 ±0.7)d vs.(4.5 ±0.6)d,t =-4.057,P =0.000;(43.8 ±3.9)d vs.(45.9 ±3.8)d,t =-2.070,P =0.043].There were no significant differences in postoperative drainage of uterine cavity and β-hCG level resolution time between the two groups [(22.1 ±2.8)ml vs.(23.6 ±3.2)ml,t =-1 .904,P =0.062;(20.5 ±7.7)d vs.(22.9 ±9.3)d,t =-1 .075,P =0.287]. Conclusion Hysteroscopy has advantages of less intraoperative blood loss,shorter hospitalization time and quicker recovery in the treatment of endogenous type CSP.

Objective To compare the clinical value of fluid attenuated inversion recovery imaging (FLAIR),magnetic resonance diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI) and magnetic resonance angiography(MRA) in diagnosis of early cerebral infarction.Methods 70 cerebral infarction patients were chosen.They underwent FLAIR,DWI and MRA examination.Results 70 patients with early cerebral infarction mostly were multiple lessions accouting for 60％.Supper actue period had 22 cases and acute period had 48 cases.DWI had the highest detection rate of cerebral infarction,particularly in the hyperacute period the detection rate reached 100％,which was significantly higher than the FLAIR and MRA(x2 =12.4,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Especially in the early diagnosis of hyperacute cerebral infarction,DWI is superior to FLAIR and MRA.FLAIR showed better on the cortex and periventricular lesions,MRA can check out the blood vessel lesions in the infarction area.

A stable and efficient L-Malic acid accumulation mutant strain Rhizopus oryzae ME-M15 was discovered occasionally in the mutation breading for fumaric acid producers. Rhizopus oryzae ME-M15 gave a L-Malic acid output of 16.3 g/L on average after fermentation for 96 hours, more than 3 times than that of the parent strain ME-F10. In addition, other metabolites such as ethanol and fumaric acid were re-markably decreased in accordance with the depressed activity of the cytosolic isoenzyme of fumarase and alcohol dehydrogenase in strain ME-M15, while the activity of the pyruvate carboxylase had no significant difference.

The bioconversion of lignocellulosic materials for organic acid had great meaning to both economic and social benefit,owning to its renewable character,abundance and low price.In order to find out the key to the efficient utilization of lignocellulose,kinds of fermentation strategies to product organic acid(such as loctic acid,funaric acid)from lignocellulcsic were discussed,also the xylose metabolic pathway of Rhizopus sp.was extensively reviewed,and it find out that the low conversion of xylose was the bottle-block.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of 18-fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography-CT(~(18)FDG PET-CT) for recurrence and metastasis in treated esophageal carcinoma (EC). Methods A retrospective study is done on 37 previously treated EC patients who underwent PET-CT scans to detect recurrent or metastatic lesions.The diagnostic accuracy of ~(18)FDG PET-CT was assessed with the help of pathological finding as well as clinical or follow-up data.Results Fourty-six sites of recurrence were finally confirmed in 37 patients by cytology,pathology or follow-up data.The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of PET-CT in detecting recurrence of all sites were 93.5% (43/46),76.9% (20/26) and 87.5% (63/72),respectively.Two false-positive findings were found both at the anastomosis and hilar nodes,which caused the decrease in the overall specificity,especially that locally.The analysis of standard uptake value (SUV) demonstrated that patients with recurrence or who died during follow-up had higher SU- Vs compared with the control group.Condusions ~(18)FDG PET-CT is highly effective in detecting recur- rence in previously treated EC patients despite the low specificity at local sites.The analysis of stardard up- take value(SUV) provides incremental value in prognosis for this patient cohart.

Objective To construct a prokaryotic expression vector pET-22b+with Middle East respiratory syndrome ( MERS) coronavirus nuclocapsid protein( NP) gene and to express and purify N protein.Methods N gene amplified by PCR was inserted into the prokaryotic expression vector pET-22b+.Recombinant plasmid was confirmed using DNA elec-trophoresis and sequencing.NP was expressed in E.coli BL21(DE3) by IPTG induced and purified by cation exchange chromatography using the AKTA purification system.Results The NP gene sequence was proved to be correct by sequen-cing and the protein was expressed in both soluble and insoluble forms in E.coli BL21 ( DE3 ) after IPTG induction.The purity and concentration of recombinant protein was improved obviously by cation exchange chromatography and enrich-ment.Conclusion Recombiant NP of high purity and concentration is purified and will facilitate NP functional research.

Objective To compare the efficacy of endovascular interventional treatment and surgical clipping in posterior communicating artery aneurysm (PCoAA) patients with fetal-type posterior cerebral artery (fPCA).Methods The PCoAA patients with fPCA were enrolled.Their baseline clinical data were collected.The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to assess the clinical outcomes at six months after procedure.The mRS score 0-2 was defined as good outcome.Results A total of 35 PCoAA patients with fPCA were enrolled into the study,23 were treated with interventional embolization therapy and 12 were treated with craniotomy clipping.There were no significant differences in age,gender,preoperative Fisher grade,Hunt-Hess grade,baseline GCS scores,and aneurysm typing between the 2 groups.The good outcome rate of the interventional embolization group at 6 months was higher than that of the surgical clipping group,but there was no significant difference (65.22％ vs.41.67％;P =0.282).Results The efficacy of PCoAA using interventional embolization therapy combined fPCA is almost the same as craniotomy clipping.

Objective To investigate the effect of berberine on endoplasmic reticulum stress PERK apoptosis pathway in HK-2 cells by high fructose.Methods HK-2 cells were grown in DMEM/F12, containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and divided randomly into four groups: normal control group (Group C); Fructose group (Group F): it contains 25mmol/L fructose culture; Berberine group (Group B): 25mmol/L fructose + 10μmol/L berberine treatment group; TUDCA group (Group T):25mmol/L fructose +2μmol/L TUDCA culture group; Cells were collected after culturing 24h. The expression of glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), CHOP protein and the phosphorylation levels of PERK, eIF2α were tested by Western blotting. The cell cycles were detected by flow cytometry and the apoptosis of cells were detected by TUNEL staining.ResultsWestern blotting showed that the expression of GRP78 and CHOP protein in group F was significantly higher than that in group C, and the levels of p-PERK and p-eIF2α in group F were significantly higher than those in group F. Compared with group F, GRP78, CHOP, p-PERK and p-eIF2α in group B and T were significantly lower (P<0.05). The expression of GRP78, CHOP, p-PERK and p-eIF2α in group B had no significant difference. Flow cytometry and TUNEL staining showed that the cell viability of fructose group was significantly lower than that of C group, and the apoptotic index was significantly higher than that of group C (P<0.05). Compared with group F, the activity of HK-2 cells in group B and T significantly increased, otherwise the apoptosis index significantly decreased, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Compared with group T, the viability index and apoptosis rate of group B had no significant difference (P>0.05).Conclusion Persistent high fructose can activate the intracellular PERK pathway in HK-2 cells, causing endoplasmic reticulum stress. Berberine can inhibit the fructose-induced PERK and eIF2α phosphorylation, down-regulated the expression of GRP78, CHOP protein, thus by regulating PERK Pathways to alleviate cell cycle arrest and reduce cell apoptosis.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlation betwen varying degrees of non-acute tinnitus and anxiety and depression. METHOD: Seventy-seven outpatients with non-acute tinnitus as their in chief complaint were submitted to Tinnitus Handicap Inventory(THI), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS), and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS). RESULT: THI and its three subscales were found to have significant correlations with SAS and SDS. The group (THI ≥ 38) had more anxiety and depression than the mild (THI < 38). Significant correlations were also observed between THI, SAS and SDS in the group with THI ≥ 38, in contrast with the group of THI < 38. CONCLUSION Patients with THI ≥ 38 suffered from severe anxiety and depression than the mild. Doctors should pay more attention to these patients, especially their psychological disorders.
