Objective To investigate the degradation kinetics of paeoniflorin-6-O’- benzenesulfonate ( CP-25 ) in vitro. Methods The homogenates of liver and intestine were prepared in vitro, and concentrations of CP-25 in ho-mogenates were detected by HPLC. Results CP-25 was obviously degradable in liver and intestine homogenates, and half life of degradation was decreased when levels of homogenates increased;the metabolisms of CP-25 in dif-ferent homogenates of intestine were diverse, the metabolic actions in duodenum and colon were weaker than those of jejunum and ileum. Conclusion Oral administration of CP-25 suffers first pass elimination from intestine and liver, which suggests the absorption of CP-25 could be further improved by appropriate pharmaceutical preparations.

Objective To evaluate the placental characteristics in monochorionic (MC) twin pregnancy with selective fetal growth restriction (sFGR). Methods Fifty-five placentas from women with MC twin pregnancy were included, who had terminated pregnancy in the Peking University Third Hospital between June 1, 2013 and June 1, 2014, including 23 cases with sFGR and 32 uncomplicated cases as control group. We perfused the placentas within 24 h after delivery, and pigment of four different colors was used to perfuse the umbilical arteries and veins of both twins and determine the types of vascular anastomosis. Umbilical cord insertion, placental territory discordance (PTD, the territory difference between two placentas/the bigger one), and the type, number and diameter of placental superficial vascular anastomosis were analyzed using two independent samples t-test, nonparametric test,χ2 test or Fisher's exact test. Results The PTD was 0.60(0.10-0.80) vs 0.22(0.00-0.90) in sFGR group and control group (Z=-3.913) respectively, and the proportion of placenta with uneven share was 91.3%(21/23) vs 50.0%(16/32) (Fisher's exact test), which were significantly higher in sFGR group (both P < 0.01). The proportion of non-central cord insertion was 82.6% (19/23), 13.0% (3/23) and 40.6% (26/64), respectively, in smaller fetus of sFGR, bigger fetus of sFGR and control group, which was significantly higher in smaller fetus of sFGR than in the other two groups (Fisher's exact test, both P < 0.01). The proportion of arterioarterial (AA), arteriovenous (AV) and venovenous (VV) anastomosis in sFGR group and control group was 78.3%(18/23) vs 75.0%(24/32), 82.6%(19/23) vs 71.9%(23/32), and 17.4%(4/23) vs 15.6%(5/32);there were no significant differences between two groups (Fisher's exact test,all P>0.05). The number of AA, AV and VV anastomosis in sFGR group and control group was 1.0 (0.0-2.0) vs 1.0 (0.0-4.0), 3.0 (0.0-10.0) vs 2.0 (0.0-5.0), and 0.0 (0.0-1.0) vs 0.0 (0.0-3.0) (Z=-0.256, -0.142 and -0.123);the total diameter of AA, AV and VV anastomosis was 2.7 (0.0-7.0) vs 2.2 (0.0-9.7), 4.0 (0.0-13.7) vs 3.4 (0.0-11.5), and 0.0 (0.0-7.9) vs 0.0 (0.0-7.1) mm (Z=-0.070, -0.087 and -0.087);there were no significant differences between two groups (all P>0.05). The total number of all anastomosis was 3.5 (0.0-10.0) vs 3.5 (0.0-6.0) (Z= - 0.567); the total diameter of all anastomosis was 6.9 (0.0-22.4) vs 5.9 (0.0-17.1) mm (Z= - 0.556); there were no significant differences between two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions Placental sharing discordance and non-central cord insertion may be the risk factors for MC pregnancies complicated with sFGR.

Objective To compare the outcomes of selective feticide by umbilical cord ligation (UCL),bipolar cord coagulation (BCC) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in the treatment of complicated monochorionic twins.Methods We retrospectively analyzed all cases of complicated monochorionic twin pregnancies treated at Peking University Third Hospital from August 2008 to December 2014.The indications for surgery included severe twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS),selective intrauterine growth restriction (sIUGR) (type Ⅱ and Ⅲ),twin reversed arterial perfusion sequence (TRAP) or discordant anomaly.One-way ANOVA,LSD t test,Mann-Whitney U test,Chi-square or Fisher's exact test were used for statistical analysis.Results (1) A total of 68 patients chose selective feticide by different techniques,including fetoscopic UCL (n=18,UCL group) and ultrasound-guided RFA (n=46,RFA group).The other four patients treated by bipolar cord coagulation (BCC) were excluded.The maternal age,proportion of assisted reproductive technology,indications,gestational age and mean birth weight all showed no differences between the two groups (P>0.05).One case of anterior placenta was found in UCL group,fewer than in the RFA group (27 cases,36.9%)(x2=4.853).No fetal loss occurred within two weeks in UCL group,but there were seven cases (seven cases,15.2%) of earlier fetal loss in RFA group (x2=4.952).The median operation time was (63.2±22.5) min in UCL group,and longer than in the RFA group (33.3 ± 11.4) min (t=5.165),all P<0.05.(2) The gestational age of TTTS and TRAP patients for feticide was older than patients with sIUGR and discordant anomaly [(22.7± 3.0),(22.8±3.2),(20.3 ± 2.5) and (20.4± 3.6) weeks,respectively,F=2.957,P=0.040].Fetal loss rate within two weeks in patients with discordant anomaly was higher than in other groups (4/11 vs 1/10,0/23 and 1/15,P<0.05).The survival rate,gestational age at delivery and mean birth weight showed no significant differences among the four groups.(3)Compared with feticided fetuses at the upper uterine cavity,the fetal loss rate was higher,and the operation time,gestational age at delivery,birth weight and neonatal survival rate were lower than those performed at the lower uterine cavity,but the difference was not significant.Conclusions RFA provides similar outcomes of selective feticide in complicated monochorionic twins compared with UCL,while RFA is easier to operate.

Objective To evaluate the effect on maternal blood dilution of fetoscopic laser occlusion of chorioangiopagous vessels (FLOC) in treating twin to twin transfusion syndrome(TTTS). Methods The clinical data of 71 cases of TTTS who had FLOC in Peking University Third Hospital were reviewed. Fluid intake, blood pressure, heart rate, red blood cell count, hemoglobin and hematocrit in perioperative 24 hours were analyzed. Results (1)According to the Quintero staging, 9 cases were stageⅠ, 24 were stageⅡ,28 were stageⅢand 10 cases were stageⅣ.(2)The average operation time of FLOC was (64.0±16.3) minutes. One case had placental abruption after the procedure;one had placental vessel rupture and 6 women refused to take blood counting. These 8 cases were excluded and 63 cases were included in the study. (3) The perioperative bleeding volume was 3 (1, 5) ml, and the volume of fluid intake, urine, amniotic fluid drainage and net fluid intake in the perioperative 24 hours was 2 050 ml(1 530 ml, 3 700 ml), 2 300 ml (1 100 ml, 3 500 ml), 1 900 ml (1 400 ml, 2 700 ml) and -1 760 ml (-100 ml,-3 350 ml), respectively. There was no significant difference between maternal blood pressure or heart rate preoperatively and postoperatively.(4)The maternal red blood cell count [(3.47±0.36)×1012/L versus (3.01± 0.37) × 1012/L, P=0.000], hemoglobin [(107.8 ± 12.1) g/L versus (95.1 ± 11.2) g/L, P=0.000] and hematocrit [0.313(0.238, 0.387) versus 0.276(0.213, 0.800), P=0.000] decreased significantly 24 hours after FLOC.(5) The postoperative hematocrit decreased more in the group which the amniotic fluid drainage volume was 2 000- 3 000 ml than that in the group which the amniotic fluid drainage volume was 1 000-1 999 ml. Conclusions The blood dilution can not be ignored after the FLOC in TTTS patients. The more the amniodrainage volume during the FLOC, the more the maternal blood dilution would be. It might result from amniodrainage during the FLOC, improved maternal-placenta circulation and tocolytics used after FLOC. More attention should be take about maternal cardiac function and complications related with anemia after FLOC.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of fetoscopic laser occlusion of chorioangiopagous vessels (FLOC) in treatment of twin-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) and to investigate the incidence of TTTS complicated with selective intrauterine growth restriction (sIUGR) for better understanding the effects of sIUGR as a complication of TTTS on pregnancy outcomes. Methods A retrospective study was performed on 116 gravidas who were diagnosed with TTTS of Quintero stage Ⅰ - Ⅳ in Peking University Third Hospital from September 2008 to September 2014. Among them, 44 cases received FLOC therapy. The incidences of sIUGR in each Quintero stage of TTTS were analyzed. Pregnancy outcomes of those 44 cases treated with FLOC were observed and the differences among four stage groups were analyzed. Chi-square or Fisher exact test was performed for statistical analysis. Results (1) The survival rates of both twins from stage Ⅰ to Ⅳ groups were 4/7, 10/14, 5/19 and 3/4, respectively, with statistically significant difference (χ2=7.840, P=0.038), but that in stage Ⅲ group was lower than in stage Ⅱ group without significant difference (P'=0.008). Differences in the total fetal survival rate among the four groups were statistically significant [8/14, 75% (21/28), 32% (12/38) and 6/8, χ2=14.016, P=0.002]. The total fetal survival rate in stage Ⅲ group was significantly lower than that in stageⅡ group (P'<0.008). In patients with stage Ⅲ TTTS, those complicated with sIUGR, after receiving FLOC therapy, showed a lower total fetal survival rate than those without sIUGR [21% (6/28) vs 6/10, P<0.05]. (2) Among the 116 TTTS patients, there were 63 cases (54%) with sIUGR complication. Patients with sIUGR complication in TTTS stages Ⅰ to Ⅳ groups accounted for 40% (14/35), 48% (11/23), 78% (28/36) and 46% (10/22), respectively, and the differences were significant (χ2=11.963,P=0.007). The incidence of sIUGR in stage Ⅲ group was greater than that in stage Ⅰ group (χ2=10.482, P'=0.002), and those in both stage Ⅲ and Ⅱ groups were higher than in stage Ⅰgroup without significant difference. Conclusions TTTS patients in stage Ⅲ have lower survival rate of both twins and total fetal survival rates after FLOC therapy, which may be related to a higher incidence of concurrent sIUGR.
