Objective The invasion and metastasis of tumor cells depend on the growth of new blood vessels, and tumor neovascularization was regulated by a lots of factors. This study aimed to investigate the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF -1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VECF) in retinoblastoma and explore the correlation of HIF-1α and VEGF with tumor invasion and metastasis and analyze their relationship with clinicopathology characters and determine their effect on angiogenesis. Methods Forty-six retinoblastoma specimens with different clinical stages were collected in Affiliated Second Hospital of Nanchang University. The specimens received neither radiotherapy nor chemotherapy. The retinal tissue near the tumor was as control. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of HIF-1α protein and VEGF protein in retinoblastoma. The relationship between expression of HIF-1α and VEGF and stage of tumor was analyzed. Results The HIF-1α and VEGF were highly expressed in the ischemia or necrosis area of retinoblastoma. Expression of HIF-1α was mainly in cell nuclear and partly in cytoplasm, and VEGF was mainly expressed in cytoplasm of tumor cells. The expression of HIF-1α and VEGF was gradually increased with the rising of tumor stage (P ＜ 0. 05) and showed significant correlation between expression of HIF-1α and VEGF with tumor stage(r_s =0. 943, P ＜0. 01). HIF-1α exepression was also possitively related to VEGF level in retinoblastoma (r, =0. 946, P ＜ 0. 01). Conclusion HIF-1α and VEGF were over-expressed in retinoblastoma cells, and the expressions were related to clinical staging, invasion and metastasis of tumor cells. The expression of HIF-1α and VEGF was one of the predictors for the biological behaviors of retinoblastoma. HIF-1α and VEGF may play an important role in angiogenesis and tumor progression in retinoblastoma.

ObjectiveTo analyze the spectrum distribution characteristics of high-intensity productive noise in key industries in Guangdong Province. Methods A total of 2 806 enterprises in 21 prefecture-level cities in Guangdong Province were selected as the study subjects using the stratified sampling method. On-site investigations were conducted in workplaces. Noise in workplaces and work-sites, and the noise spectrum of the workplaces with sound pressure level ≥85.0 dB(A) were detected. Results The noise of a total of 23 076 workplaces and 20 969 work sites from 30 key industries were monitored. The median (M) and 25th and 75th percentiles (P₂₅, P₇₅) of workplace sound pressure level were 82.3 (78.6, 86.5) dB(A). The rate of the noise exceeded national standard was 30.4%. The sound pressure level M (P₂₅, P₇₅) of work-site was 78.6 (70.0, 83.5) dB(A). The rate of the noise exceeded national standard was 18.0%. Workplace noise and work site noise were positively correlated (Spearman correlation coefficient=0.86, P<0.01). The rate of the noise exceeded national standard was 46.5% in key work sites where the rate of noise exceeded the national standard was ≥25.0%, and corresponding rate of the workplace noise exceeded national standard was 58.1%. The noise spectrum result of 5 636 workplaces sound pressure level>85.0 dB(A) showed that most of the noise source was from grinding machines (441 cases), and the highest average sound pressure level of noise source was from screening machines [93.0 dB(A)]. Cluster analysis results showed that the main noise sources could be divided into three categories, including wideband noise with levels >80.0 dB in all frequency bands except 8 000.0 Hz, medium-high-frequency noise with the highest sound pressure level at 1 000.0, 2 000.0, and 4 000.0 Hz and low frequencies <75.0 dB, and medium-low-frequency noise below 500.0 Hz with sound pressure level >85.0 dB. Conclusion The rate of the noise exceeded national standard in workplace of key industries in Guangdong Province is high, involving a wide range of industries, with high sound pressure levels and obvious spectrum characteristics of corresponding noise sources. Corresponding noise control strategies can be formulated based on different spectrum characteristics and magnitudes.

Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury(CIRI)is a serious complication caused by the recovery of blood flow in the affected brain tissue of patients with ischemic stroke.CIRI patients are often accompanied by neurological dysfunction,cognitive impairment,emotional disorders and other symptoms,which have a serious impact on daily life.At present,CIRI is easy to be diagnosed early,but there are relatively few related specific treatments.In this paper,the correlation between cyclic adenylate-activated exchange protein 1/RAS-related protein 1(Epac1/Rap1)signaling pathway and CIRI is reviewed,in order to provide new ideas for clinical treatment of CIRI patients.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the impact of the concentration of circulating luteinizing hormone (LH) in the late-follicle phase on the outcome of in vitro fertilization for normogonadotrophic women.

METHODSIntracytoplasmic sperm injection treatment was conducted in 432 consecutive cycles of normogonadotrophic women. A stimulation protocol with mid-luteal gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist down-regulation and ovarian stimulation with follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) was used in all cycles. hMG was added when a follicle of > or = 14 mm was present (FSH + hMG group), not in the control group (FSH-alone). LH and oestradiol concentration in the serum on hCG day were detected. Based on LH levels, patients in the FSH + hMG group were again divided into four subgroups: LH < or = 1, 1 < LH < or = 2, 2 < LH < or = 3, and 3 < LH < or = 10 IU/L.

RESULTSOestradiol concentration on the day of hCG injection in the FSH + hMG group was higher than that in the FSH-alone group [(3435.51 +/- 2029.01) pg/ml vs (2620.62 +/- 1604.80) pg/ml, P < 0.05]. More embryos were transferred in the FSH-alone group than in the FSH + hMG group [(2.77 +/- 0.45) vs (2.22 +/- 0.46), P <0.001]. Fertilization rate, implantation rate, and clinical pregnancy rate were similar between the FSH-alone group and the FSH + hMG group (77.52% vs 78.31%, 41.42% vs 41.68%, 64.56% vs 62.64%, P > 0.05), as well as among the four subgroups of the FSH + hMG group (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe adding of suitable amount of hMG and physiologically limited LH concentration in the late-follicle phase have no negative effect on the outcome of in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection for normogonadotrophic women.
