BACKGROUND:With the improvement of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer technology, patients with in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer are facing more and more psychological stress. To completely understand their mental features and to explore effective mental intervention are important problems faced workers of reproductive medicine.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the psychological condition of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer patients.
METHODS:A total of 92 in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer patients, who entered the cycle from October to
November 2012, were enrol ed in this study. The psychological conditions of these patients were evaluated using Symptom Checklist-90.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al the factor scores of the Symptom Checklist-90 in patients with in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer achieved significantly higher levels than national adult norm on their first day of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer cycles (P<0.05), with the exception of Psychiatric state factor. Meanwhile, in addition to Psychiatric state, differences of al the factors of Symptom Checklist-90 in patients with in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer were statistical y significant in different stages of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer cycles at the first day of entering cycle, the day of obtaining ovum, and the seventh day of embryo transfer, (P<0.05). Interpersonal relationship, Depression and Anxiety scores were increased at the first day of entering cycle, the day of obtaining ovum, and the seventh day of embryo transfer (P<0.05). These results showed that patients with in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer tend to have poor psychological status, which is a problem in patients during the different stages of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer cycles and becomes aggravated during egg retrieval and waiting for the outcome. Interventional measures should be taken in different stages to improve patients’ mental health.

Objective To establish a new processing method for gait data on Matlab to evaluate the hindlimbs behavior of non-human primates. Methods Gait analysis was tested on three rhesus monkeys 6 weeks after spinal cord injury, and kinematics data of hindlimbs were obtained using the VICON system. The raw data of kinematics were filtered and extracted, which were achieved through VICON 3D motion capture system with the Excel link combining Matlab with Microsoft Excel, and calculated in the Matlab environment. Results The kinematic parameters such as step length, step height, knee joint angle, and malleolus joint angle were gained by calculating. The mean values of step length (F=2.869, P=0.088) and step height (F=1.148, P=0.344) showed no significant difference at three speeds, which implied a higher repeatability of the data model. Angle-time curve reflected the joint function and movement. This system initially described the foot gait trajectory which could be used in gait repetitive analysis, and also generated the gait 2D/3D trajectories of hindlimbs. Conclusion The implement of these functions makes the post-processing of data more flexible and open whitout VICON system, and the calculated parameters and space tracing of gait trajectory basically meet the need of hindlimb behavior evaluation for nonhuman primate.

ObjectiveUsing large sample clinical study to reevaluate the safety and efficacy of recombinant human growth hormone(ANSOMONE) in treating pediatric growth hormone deficiency(GHD).Methods1012 cases were administered with ANSOMONE at a dose of 0.1 IU · kg-1 · d -1 in bedtime for 6 months.The alteration of mean height,growth rate,height standard deviation scores,bone age,and anti-GH antibody and occurrence of adverse effects were observed.ResultsThe growth rate was promoted from ( 2.50 ± 0.85 ) cm/year to ( 13.44 ± 4.27 ) cm/year,the net growth rate was( 10.94 ±3.69)cm/year.There was significant difference between the pre-treatment and post-treatment patients ( P ＜ 0.01 ).The post-treatment anti-GH antibody positive rate was 13.34％,which had no obvious effect on the efficacy.Few patients exert transient inflammation reactions,which disappeared with any treatment.ConclusionANSOMONE had significant efficacy,and could promote the height increase obviously.It had good safety without any obvious side effect and early-maturing effect.

Objective To explore the risk factors of children with cerebral palsy during pregnancy and neonatal period in Xinxiang area.Methods A retrospective analysis of the relevant research data of cerebral palsy children in Xinxiang area was performed.The research objects were children with cerebral palsy born from May 1,2005 to April 30,2010.At the same time,3 healthy children were selected as the control group to analyze the related risk factors causing cerebral palsy in children.Results The risk factors of children with cerebral palsy in Xinxiang city were as follows : maternal nutritional status, vaginal bleeding during pregnancy, pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome, and abnormal production history were associated with cerebral palsy (x2 =2.313,13.296,5.034,7.434, all P ＜ 0.05)during the perinatal period;related factors during neonatal period were premature birth,severe asphyxia, severe jaundice, and intracranial infection(x2 =4.637,29.50,4.633,5.107, all P ＜ 0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed the history of severe asphyxia (OR =2.340,95 ％ CI: 1.250-4.440), severe jaundice (OR =4.110, 95％ CI:2.430-6.740) ,premature birth(OR =2.570,95％ CI: 1.410-4.770) ,pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome (OR =2.350,95 ％ CI:I.020-5.440), vaginal bleeding during pregnancy (OR =73.600,95 ％ C1:3.060-17.750) and abnormal production history(OR =5.710,95％ CI: 1.250-26.310) were independent risk factors causing children with cerebral palsy.Conclusions The history of severe asphyxia, severe jaundice, premature birth, pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome, vaginal bleeding during pregnancy and congenital dysplasia are independent risk factors of children with cerebral palsy in Xinxiang area.It should be strengthened to screen and standardize the management of high-risk newborn infants with cerebral palsy, and do well management for perinatal high-risk pregnant women management.Early prevention can help to reduce the incidences of cerebral palsy in local area.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) regulated by differ-ent isoforms of tyrosine kinase receptor B (TrkB) in epileptic hippocampal neurons. Methods Primary hippocampal neu-rons were cultured in vitro for 7 days, and divided into two groups, ALLN (calcineurin inhibitor) group and Anisomycin (trans-lation inhibitor) group. ALLN group included control group, control+BDNF group, epilepsy group, epilepsy+BDNF group, control+ALLN group, epilepsy+ALLN group and epilepsy+ALLN+BDNF group. Anisomycin group was sub-divided into con-trol group, control+BDNF group, epilepsy group, epilepsy+BDNF group, control+Anisomycin group, epilepsy+Anisomycin group and epilepsy+Anisomycin+BDNF group. The immunofluorescent technique was used to identificate the hippocampal neurons. Epileptiform discharges were detected by electrophysiological techniques. Western blot assay was used to deter-mine the protein expression of TrkB and phosphorylated TrkB (p-TrkB) in all cell groups. Results (1) In ALLN group, the gray value of p-TrkB/TrkB was higher in control+BDNF group compared with that of control group, the value was higher in epilepsy+BDNF group than that of epilepsy group but was lower than that of control+BDNF group. The gray value of p-TrkB/TrkB was lower in epilepsy+ALLN+BDNF group than that of epilepsy+BDNF group, but no significant difference compared with that of epilepsy+ALLN group. (2) In Anisomycin group:the gray value of p-TrkB/TrkB was higher in control+BDNF group than that of control group. The gray value of p-TrkB/TrkB was higher in epilepsy+BDNF group than that of epilepsy group, but which was lower than that of control+BDNF group. The gray value of p-TrkB/TrkB was higher in epilepsy+Aniso-mycin+BDNF group than that of epilepsy+BDNF group and epilepsy+Anisomycin group. Conclusion The decreased ex-pression of TrkB.T can improve the inhibition of BDNF/TrkB signaling, and BDNF can activate BDNF/TrkB signal pathway in epileptic hippocampal neurons. The increased TrkB.FL protein level by ALLN can’t improve the inhibition of BDNF/TrkB signal pathway.
