Objective To detect the frequency and tissue distribution pattern of inhibin subunits in normal endometrium and periph-eral blood, and investigate the precise action in endometrium. Methods Normal cndometrial tissues were obtained from 16 women in the proliferative phase with salpingo-infertility, 11 women in the early secretory phase and 17 women in the late secretory phase with cervical cancer from Jan to Dee 2006. Expression of INH subunits were detected by immunohistochcmistry. INH-B in the blood samples were detec-ted. None of patients took any steroid drugs before 6 months of giving the samples. Results Immunohistochemistry showed that INH sub-units expressed in normal endometrial tissues. The expression intensity of INH subunits gradually increased in different menstrual phases. The level of inhibin-B in proliferative phase was higher than that in late secretory phase. Conclusions The relationship of inhibin-B level in serum and expression of inhibin subunits in endometrium showed that inhibin could be involved in autocrine/paracrine signaling and contrib-ute to several aspects of endometrial maturation.

Objective To study the changes of hearing function and cochlear morphology on diffuse brain in-jury model in rat .Methods One hundred and fifty SD rats with normal hearing were randomly divided into five groups ,each group consisted of 30 SD rats ,including a control group and four experimental groups which endured diffuse brain injury(DBI) from one to four weeks .Diffuse brain injury model of rats were established ,then ABR , 40 Hz AERP and ASSR examination ,light microscopy ,electron microscopy were used to evaluate the change of hearing function and morphology .Results The difference of ABR ,40 Hz AERP and ASSR thresholds between the experimental and the normal control group were significant (P<0 .05) .The thresholds of ABR ,40HzAERP and AS-SR were increased in the first week of DBI ,then the threshold continuously increased in the second and third week , at last the threshold decreased in the fourth week .The results under scaning electron microscope demonstrated that the ciliums of the majority of outer hair cells lodged in the first week of DBI .The results under transmission electron microscope showed that in the first week of DBI ,there were edema and denuration of mitochondrial ,mitochondrial cristaes were obscured or disappeared .The changes were deteriorate in the second and third week ,whereas the changes were mitigatal in the fourth week .Conclusion Cochlear morphology and hearing damage were observed in diffuse brain injury model of rats .

Objective To explore the effects of Zinc Protoporphyrin and Heme on the expression of HO-1 in cochlear and the change of auditory brainstem response on diffuse traumatic brain injury model of rats.Methods Diffuse traumatic brain injury model of rats were established and randomly divided into thirteen groups.Then auditory brainstem response examination,light microscope,immunohistochemistry technique were used to evaluate the change of auditory brainstem response and the expression of HO-1 in cochlear.Results The differences of auditory brainstem response threshold and latency of wave between the experimental and the normal control group were obvious(P＜0.05).The expression of HO-1 in the control group was normal,whereas there were obvious changes of inner ear HO-1 expression in the traumatic groups.The grey value of HO-1 expression in trauma group,Znpp group and heme group was significantly associated with auditory function change(P＜0.05).Conclusion There were influence of Zinc Protoporphyrin and Hemeon the inner ear HO-1 expression and the change of auditory brainstem response with diffuse traumatic brain injury model of rats.The protective effect of heme on auditory function may be associated with the increased expression of HO-1.

Objective To evaluate Aptima HPV E6 and E7 mRNA assay (Aptima HPV) combined with Aptima HPV 16 and 18 or 45 (18/45) genotype assay (Aptima HPV-GT) as a means of cervical cancer opportunistic screening. Methods From October 2016 to October 2017, a total of 23 258 women aged 25-65 years were enrolled in the physical examination center and gynecological clinic of Huzhou Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital. All the women had Aptima HPV tested, further Aptima HPV-GT testing for positive women and liquid-based thin layer cytology Thinprep cytologic test (TCT). Women with Aptima HPV (+) or ≥low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL) or obvious clinical symptoms (including vaginal bleeding after intercourse and watery, bloody vaginal discharge) were referred for colposcopy and further biopsy with or without endocervical curettage (ECC) if indicated. Expression of Aptima HPV, HPV 16 and HPV 18/45 with different cytological diagnostic groups and histological diagnosis groups were compared respectively. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of Aptima HPV detection and TCT in identifying histological diagnosis of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) or worse (HSIL+) were compared. Results (1) The positive rates of Aptima HPV, HPV 16 and HPV 18/45 were 14.00% (3 257/23 258), 1.85% (430/23 258) and 0.86% (199/23 258) respectively.The positive rates of Aptima HPV, HPV 16 and HPV 18/45 increased with cytology grading in squamous epithelium [negative for intraepithelial lesion or malignancy (NILM), atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASCUS), LSIL, atypical squamous cell cannot exclude HSIL (ASC-H), HSIL and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), all P=0.000)]. According to histology results, the positive rates of Aptima HPV, HPV 16 and HPV 18/45 increased with histology grading in squamous epithelium (normal cervical tissue, LSIL, HSIL and SCC, all P=0.000). The positive rate of Aptima HPV was significantly higher in HSIL+group than that in the LSIL or better (LSIL-) group [98.11% (311/317) vs 12.84% (2 946/22 941), P=0.000]. The positive rate of Aptima HPV-GT was significantly higher in HSIL+group than that in LSIL-group [58.36% (185/317) vs 1.91% (439/22 941), P=0.000]. (2) Compared with cytology, Aptima HPV resulted in significant higher sensitivity (98.11% vs 59.62%, P=0.000) and negative predictive value (99.97% vs 99.42%, P=0.000), significant lower specificity (87.16% vs 95.37%, P=0.000) and positive predictive value (9.55% vs 15.10%, P=0.000) when identified HSIL+. Conclusions Women with Aptima HPV positive, especially those with Aptima HPV-GT positive, are more likely to have histological diagnosis of HSIL+. Aptima HPV combined with Aptima HPV-GT is feasible as a means of cervical cancer opportunistic screening in tertiary hospitals.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the prognostic value of pre-treatment serum lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)levels in patients with locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC)treated with salvage intensity-modulated radiotherapy(IMRT)and to determine its association with rT staging.METHODS The records of 97 patients with locally relapsed and non-metastatic NPC who received salvage IMRT treatment in our center from January 2018 to April 2022 were collected,including 51 patients who died,18 patients with distant metastases,30 patients with local failure,and 67 patients with prognostic adverse events(death,distant tumors/local metastases).Clinical data,local failure-free survival(LFFS),distant metastasis-free survival(DMFS)and overall survival(OS)were obtained from all patients,and the relationship between LDH and the prognosis of salvage IMRT therapy in NPC patients was analyzed.RESULTS The serum LDH level before salvage IMRT was significantly higher in the death[221.25(178.24,339.13)U/L vs.124.82(79.0,159.50)U/L,Z=-5.122],local failure[230.75(170.89,394.50)U/L vs.157.85(91.78,216.95)U/L,Z=-3.442],distant metastasis[261.62(153.55,465.50)U/L vs.168.98(101.75,237.75)U/L,Z=-2.478]and poor prognosis group[220.05(167.20,506.16)U/L vs.93.45(69.95,154.35)U/L,Z=-6.018],and all P<0.05.Serum LDH levels were divided into dichotomous variables according to median values(≥177.50 U/L vs.<177.50 U/L),the Cox univariate model found that the hazard ratios of LDH affecting LFFS,DMFS,OS and toxic-related death(TRD)were 3.759(1.660-8.558),4.217(1.383-12.861),3.226(1.715-6.069),3.363(1.750-6.463),P<0.05.LDH remained an independent prognostic factor for LFFS,DMFS,OS,and TRD in multivariate regression analysis(P<0.05).Compared with patients with LDH<177.50 U/L,more patients in the LDH≥177.50 U/L group had local progression-related death,and the no LFFS stage,no DMFS stage and OS were shorter in the LDH≥177.50 U/L group(log rank=11.624,7.559,14.758),P<0.05.In predicting overall survival,adding LDH to the rT stage is preferable to the rT stage alone.CONCLUSION LDH is an important factor in predicting LFFS,DMFS,OS,and TRD after saving IMRT in patients with locally relapsed,non-metastatic NPC,and the value of LDH combined with rT staging in predicting overall survival is high.
