Objective To investigate the protective effects and mechanisms of NF-KB inhibitor pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) on infant rabbits with lung injury caused by mechanical ventilation. Methods Twenty healthy infant rabbits were randomly divided into four groups. (1) Mechanical ventilation (MV, with VT = 24 ml/kg);(2) Mechanical ventilation plus PDTC pre-treatment (MVP, VT = 24 ml/kg with PDTC 100 mg/kg injection via ear vein half an hour prior to MV) ; (3) Mechanical ventilation combined with endotoxin (EMV, 0.1 ml/kg of endotoxin dripping into trachea then on MV, VT = 24 ml/kg) ; (4) EMV plus PDTC pretreatment (EMVP, PDTC 100 mg/kg injection via ear vein followed by 0.1 mg/kg of endotoxin dripping into trachea in half an hour then on MV with VT = 24 ml/kg for 4 h continuously. MPO and the activation of NF-κB in lung tissues and the genetic expression and protein quantity of TNF-α and IL-8 in homogenate were measured. The pathological changes in lung tissues were examined. Results Pre-treatment with PDTC had significant minor pathological changes caused by MV and MV plus endotoxin, which were indicated by the fact that MPO, activation of NF-KB and the genetic expression and protein quantity of TNF-α and IL-8 were significantly suppressed. Conclusions PDTC could decrease the expression, synthesis and release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. This may be through suppressing the activation of NF-κB resulting in less infiltration with inflammatory cells and protective effects on lung injury caused by MV and MV plus endotoxin.

Purpose To investigate the expression of Netrin-1 in ovarian serous carcinoma and its c1inicopatho1ogica1 significance. Methods Netrin-1 protein expression was assessed by immunohistochemica1 method in tissue specimens from 20 cases of benign ovari-an serous cystadenomas,13 cases of border1ine ovarian serous neop1asms and 32 cases of ovarian serous carcinomas( OSC). Results The positive proportion of Netrin-1 protein in OSC tissues was significant1y higher than those in border1ine and benign ovarian serous ne-op1asms(P<0. 01). The expression of Netrin-1 in OSC tissues was associated with tumor grade and c1inica1 stage(P<0. 05),but not associated with age,site,tumor size or 1ymph node metastasis( P>0. 05). Kap1an-Meier ana1ysis showed that the 5-year surviva1 rate of patients with Netrin-1 over-expression was significant1y 1ower than that of patients with 1ower expression( P<0. 05 ). Conclu-sions The high expression of Netrin-1 in OSC tissues indicates that Netrin-1 p1ays an important ro1e in cancer pathogenesis and deve1-opment and it may be a new assistant marker for prognosis of OSC.

Objective To investigate the Toxoplasma gondii infection status in pregnant women with history of adverse preg?nancy and risk factors in Bazhou area,Hebei Province. Methods A total of 302 pregnant women with the history of adverse pregnancy were chosen as respondents(an experimental group)in the hospital from March 2012 to December 2015,and 197 pregnant women without the history of adverse pregnancy as a control group. TOX?IgG and TOX?IgM were detected by using ELI?SA in two groups. The risk factors of Toxoplasma infection were surveyed by questionnaires. Results The total positive rate of Toxoplasma antibodies was 28.15%(85/302)in the experimental group,which was significantly higher than that[9.64%(19/197)]in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=24.76,P<0.05). The positive rates of TOX?IgM,TOX?IgG and TOX?IgM+TOX?IgG were 6.95%(21/302),18.54%(56/302),and 2.65%(8/302)respectively in the ex?perimental group,which were higher than 2.03%(4/197),7.61%(15/197),and 0%(0/197)respectively in the control group (χ2=6.07,11.67,3.76,all P<0.05). The questionnaire survey showed that the proportions of keeping pets,cutting board re?gardless,liking to eat hot pot or barbecue,eating raw meat,often eating in the restaurant in the pregnant women with Toxoplas?ma infection were higher than those in the pregnant women without Toxoplasma infection,and the differences were statistically significant(χ2=22.57,3.96,5.87,7.40,4.86,all P<0.05),and therefore,the above unhealthy habits may be important risk factors. Conclusions Toxoplasma infection could lead to adverse pregnancy outcomes. Therefore,the above?mentioned unhealthy habits should be avoided,especially during pregnancy period.

Objective To detect the development of fetal nasal bone with ultrasound scan in the second and third trimester, and to evaluate the value of fetal nasal bone hypoplasia in diagnosing fetal chromosomal abnormalities. Methods Prenatal ultrasound examination was performed in 1415 normal fetuses. The nasal bone length (NBL) and the nasal bone angle (NBA) were measured on the mid-sagittal plane. The karyotype of the cases with nasal bone abnormality was analyzed. Results The fetal nasal bone was successfully detected with two-dimensional ultrasonography in 95% of the subjects. The NBL increased with the gestational age while the NBA kept unchanged with the average value of 54. 4?(44. 4?-69. 2?). Forty-two cases with nasal bone hypoplasia were diagnosed prenatally including nasal bone defect (20 cases), small NBA (15 cases), short nasal bone (4 cases) and short nasal bone with small NBA (3 cases). Cordocentesis was performed in 21 cases among which 12 with abnormal karyotype, including 3 cases of trisomy 21, 3 cases of trisomy 13, 4 cases of trisomy 18 and 3 other chromosomal abnormalities. Conclusions Fetal nasal bone hypoplasia was closely related to the chromosomal abnormalities. The evaluation of fetal nasal bone with prenatal sonography is an important criteria for screening fetal chromosome abnormalities during the mid-trimester.
