Objective To study the effects of oxytocin antagonists-atosiban on pregnancy outcome after thaw embryo transfer (TET).Methods Between Jul.and Dec.2012,a total of 120 women undergoing TET in Reproductive Medical Center,General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University were randomly allocated into atosiban and control group.They were all transferred 2 or 3 top quality embryos at phase of 7-8 cells.Patients in atosiban group were administered by intravenous administration of atosiban before 30 minutes of embryo transfer with a total administered dose of 37.5 mg.In the control group,no special treatment was given before embryo transfer.All patients in 2 groups underwent progesterone luteal support regularly after embryo transfer,then the clinical rate of pregnancy,implantation and early abortion was compared.Results The clinical pregnancy rate per cycle and implantation rate per transfer were 60％(36/60) and 30.0％ (48/160) in the atosiban group,which were higher than 42％ (25/60) and 20.3％ (31/153) in the control group (all P ＜ 0.05).Early abortion rate was 6％ (2/36)in the atosiban group,which was no statistical difference comapring with control group [16％ (4/25),P ＞ 0.05].Conclusion It was suggested that atosiban treatment before embryo transfer can improve the outcome of pregnancy,and increase clinical pregnancy rate and implantation rate after TET.

Objective: To investigate electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) use and its influencing factors among junior high school students of health promotion schools in Xihu District, Hangzhou City, so as to provide insights into school-based tobacco control. Methods: Grade 1 to 3 junior high school students of health promotion schools in Xihu District were recruited using a multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method from September to December, 2021. The participants' demographic features, e-cigarette use and exposure to tobacco advertising were collected using the Chinese version of the Global Youth Tobacco Survey, and the factors affecting the intention to use e-cigarettes were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: The 1 677 respondents included 875 boys (52.18%) and 802 girls (47.82%), and grade 1 to 3 junior high school students consisted of 33.93%, 35.00% and 31.07% of all respondents, respectively. There were 1 461 students that had heard of e-cigarettes (87.12%), 101 students with intention to use e-cigarettes (6.02%), and 24 current users (1.43%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified living in rural areas (OR=2.364, 95%CI: 1.442-3.875), having close friends that were smokers (OR=5.614, 95%CI: 3.404-9.258), having seen smoking via TV, video or movie in the past 30 days (OR=2.106, 95%CI: 1.259-3.523), having received free tobacco products (OR=3.887, 95%CI: 1.172-12.894), considering e-cigarettes as nicotine-free (OR=208.442, 95%CI: 55.713-779.856), and considering smoking making comfortable at party (OR=4.534, 95%CI: 1.853-11.090) as factors affecting intention to use e-cigarettes. There were 38.04% (638/1 677) of junior high school students with exposure to advertisements for e-cigarettes and related products, and stores, supermarkets, convenience stores, grocery, e-cigarette experience stores or offline retail stores were the primary places to contact e-cigarettes and related products. Conclusions The percentage of intention to use e-cigarettes was low among junior high school students of health promotion schools in Xihu District in 2021, and their intention to use e-cigarettes was mainly affected by close friends' smoking status and personal recognition.

Objective: To investigate the inlfuence of angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) on lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) protein expression and to explore the protective effect of ACE2 on vascular endothelial cells. Methods: Our work includedin vitro andin vivo studies. For in vitro experiment, the human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) were cultured and transfected with replication deficient recombinant adenovirus of ACE2 (Ad-ACE2), and LOX-1 protein expression stimulated by angiotensin 2 was examined by Western blot analysis. Forin vivo study, atherosclerosis plaques were induced in 20 apolipoprotein E-deifcient (ApoE-/-) mice, and then randomly divided them into 2 groups: ACE2 group, the mice received Ad-ACE2 (2.5×109 pfu/ml) injection through caudal vein, EGFP (enhanced green lfuorescent protein) group, the mice received equal replication deifcient recombinant adenovirus of EGFP (Ad-EGFP) injection through caudal vein.n=10 in each group. The animals were executed after 1 month treatment to collect abdominal aorta. Lipid content in atherosclerosis plaque was evaluated by Oil red O staining and LOX-1 protein expression was examined by immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis. Results: Bothin vitro andin vivo experiments conifrmed that endothelial cell LOX-1 protein expression was signiifcantly inhibited by ACE2 transfection. The lipid content in ACE2 group was obviously lower than that in EGFP group byin vivo study. Conclusion: ACE2 may inhibit LOX-1 protein expression and therefore reduce the progress of atherosclerosis.

OBJECTIVETo study the morphologic characteristics and prognostic significance of 2 histologic subtypes of papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC).

METHODSA series of 48 tumors previously diagnosed as PRCC during the period from 2003 to 2013 were evaluated. All available slides were reviewed and 39 cases were confirmed to be PRCC. The detailed histomorphologic features were evaluated. The tumors were subtyped using the WHO classification and a novel mechanism suggested in recent literature, with prognostic correlation. Type 1 PRCC was assigned for tumors demonstrating simple cuboidal epithelium, irrespective of nuclear grade or other histomorphologic features. Tumors demonstrating cellular pseudostratification and high-grade nuclei were classified as type 2 PRCC.

RESULTSThe novel subtyping mechanism was more practical and correlated with the outcome of patients. The scope of type 1 PRCC was expanded. Type 2 PRCC demonstrated high tumor stage and high nuclear grade, and was more likely to have perinephric/renal sinus fat invasion and sarcomatoid differentiation. Follow-up information was available in 32 patients, including 4 deaths in patients haboring type 2 PRCC. The survival rate of patients with type 2 PRCC was significantly lower than that of type 1 PRCC.

CONCLUSIONSThe novel subtyping mechanism is more practical than WHO classification. Type 1 and type 2 PRCCs share many overlapping histomorphologic features. Type 2 PRCC is notably associated with worse prognosis. Recognizing the histomorphologic diversity of PRCC and classifying subtypes accurately are important in predicting the prognosis of patients with PRCC.

To introduce the repairation procedure of composite distal soft tissue defect of thumb and finger with mini toenail flap. Methods From June, 2015 to June, 2018, 7 cases with composite tissue defect at 7 distal fingers, including 5 thumbs, 1 index finger and 1 middle finger, were reconstructed with mini toenail flap transfer.The flap sizes which were raised during the operation ranged from 4.5 cm×3.0 cm-3.0 cm×1.5 cm.The donor sites were covered by toe phalanx shortening, V-Y advancement flap and local pedicle flap. Microsurgical routine treatment was made after the operation, and followed-up regularly. Results Seven flaps of 7 cases completely sur-vived without any necrosis. All the wounds at the donor sites healed well. All patients were followed-up for 6-36 months. The motive, sensor and cosmetic result were satisfied. In sensory function, the two-point discrimination dis-tance could restore to be 4-6 mm. Conclusion The mini toenail flap transfer is a reliable and suggested method.It can anatomically restored the distal digit sensor function with cosmetic contour, and regain the motive, sensory func-tion and satisfied cosmetic appearance.

Objective:To reconstruct the three-dimensional (3D) dose distribution in radiotherapy based on the convolutional neural networks (CNN) through multi-perspective scintillation light processing.Methods:First, fluorescence images were captured from three orthogonal perspectives using a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) imaging sensor. Then, the images were converted into 3D images, which were input to the trained CNN for dose reconstruction. Finally, the reconstructed doses in different fields were evaluated in terms of gamma pass rate, mean-square error (MSE), percentage depth dose (PDD), and cross beam profile (CBP). Additionally, as the CNN model, 3D-Unet was pre-trained on a virtual dataset.Results:With the 50% maximum dose of as the threshold and 3%/3 mm as the standard, the central-plane and stereo-mean gamma pass rates of all field reconstruction distributions were over 90%, with MSEs remained below 1%. Besides, the PDD and CBP curves showed MSEs below 1‰ and below 1%, respectively.Conclusions:The deep learning-based method for 3D dose reconstruction using scintillation light contributes to enhanced verification of instantaneous 3D relative dose based on plastic scintillation detectors.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors of stunting in children under 5 years old in Jilin province in 2013,with an attempt to further improve the nutrition status among children. Methods Data on stunting in children under 5 years old in Jilin province were extracted from the National Health Services Survey 2013 in Jilin province. The influencing factors of stunting were analyzed by using univariate analysis and Logistic regression analysis.. Results The stunting prevalence in children under 5 years old was 23.8% in 2013. Univariate analysis showed that urban residence (OR=0.38,95% CI=0.25-0.57),high income (OR=0.40,95% CI=0.24-0.66),mother's education level (higher than primary school) (OR=0.50,95% CI=0.32-0.81),safe water coverage (OR=0.41,95% CI=0.22-0.75),and clean toilet coverage (OR=0.36,95% CI=0.24-0.53) are protective factors of stunting. After adjusting other factors,urban residence (OR=0.54,95% CI=0.31-0.94),safe water coverage (OR=0.28,95% CI=0.13-0.60),and clean toilet coverage (OR=0.40,95% CI=0.24-0.67) still showed protective effects. Conclusion The urban-rural disparity and the availability of safe water and clean toilet are the major factors of stunting among children under 5 years old in Jilin province. The major public health service program should be fully implemented to improve the nutrition status among children.
