		                        			Objective:To investigate the factors influencing the success of external cephalic version.Methods:Pregnant women who underwent an external cephalic version due to breech or transverse presentation by the same operator in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from July 2015 to July 2021 were selected as the study objects. Univariate analysis and logistic regression analysis were used to explore the clinical factors influencing the success of the external cephalic version. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the best cut-off value of gestational week and amniotic fluid index at the time of operation and to evaluate the predictive value of the influencing factors on the success of the external cephalic version.Results:(1) A total of 118 cases finally entered this study. Among the 118 cases,77 cases (65.3%) succeeded in the external cephalic version, among which the success rate was 49.1% (27/55) for primipara and 79.4% (50/63) for multipara. The vaginal delivery rate was 56.8% (67/118). (2) Complications occurred in 19 (16.1%) of the 118 cases. The main complications were abnormal fetal heart rate (13 cases, 11.0%), umbilical cord presentation, and fetal position reversion (two cases and 1.7% in each), and the serious complications were intrauterine fetal death and placental abruption (one case and 0.8% in each).The complication rate of patients with successful external cephalic version was 7.8% (6/77), which was lower than that of those who failed the external cephalic version [31.7%(13/41)] ( χ 2=11.33, P=0.001). (3) Multivariate analysis showed that gestational week at surgery before 38, amniotic fluid index >11.10 cm, and multipara were the factors affecting the success of the external cephalic version [ OR(95% CI)=0.561(0.351-0.897), 1.173(1.018-1.351) and 4.201(1.547-11.404), all P<0.05]. (4) The area under the ROC curve of the combination of the gestational week at surgery, amniotic fluid index, and parity was 0.744 (95% CI: 0.640-0.848, P<0.001), and the Youden index was 0.518, with a sensitivity of 70.0% and a specificity of 81.8%. Conclusion:Gestational weeks, amniotic fluid index, and multipara are related to the success of the external cephalic version, and the combination of the three has certain predictive power for the success of the surgery.

		                        			We report a case of a pregnant woman with 46,XX karyotype and positive sex-determining region on the Y chromosome ( SRY) gene and her female fetus. Ultrasound examination at 12 +6 gestational weeks indicated a thickened fetal nuchal translucency, and 46, XX with a positive SRY gene was detected in the fetus through quantitative fluorescent-polymerase chain reaction and amniotic fluid karyotype. However, the ultrasound showed that the gender of the fetus was female, which was inconsistent with the phenotype of male syndrome with 46, XX combining positive SRY gene. The fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) revealed that the short arm of the Y chromosome translocated to the long arm of one of the X chromosomes, namely Yp11.3-Xq28. In addition, a copy number variation at Yp11.31p11.2 copy (about 1 MB) was found by chromosomal microarray analysis, which validated the result of FISH and was consistent with the mother. After genetic counseling, the parents chose to continue the pregnancy to full term, and no abnormalities were found in the infant during the follow-up.

Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about amiodarone treating patients with atrial fibrillation after heart valve replacement were searched from the establishment of the database to 24th September , 2019. After two people's independent literature screening and literature quality evaluation, relevant data were extracted and quantitative comprehensive analysis was conducted with Revman 5.3 software.Results:A total of 7 articles were included, including 6 Chinese articles and 1 English article. There were 710 patients in total, including 363 cases in the experimental group and 347 cases in the control group. Quantitative synthesis was performed with Revman 5.3 software, and the results showed that amiodarone treatment for atrial fibrillation after valve replacement could improve the recovery rate of atrial fibrillation ( RR=1.36, 95% CI: 1.20-1.54, P<0.05) . The rate of sinus rhythm maintenance was increased ( RR=1.41, 95% CI: 1.16-1.72, P=0.002) , the ICU monitoring time was shortened ( MD=-1.09, 95% CI: -1.32--0.86, P<0.05) , and the total days in hospital was reduced ( MD=-3.92, 95% CI: -4.25--3.59, P<0.05) . Conclusions:Amiodarone treatment for atrial fibrillation after valve replacement can improve the recovery rate of atrial fibrillation and the rate of sinus rhythm maintenance, reduce the ICU monitoring time and the total days in hospital, which is worthy of clinical application.

		                        			OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of cimetidine on low dose rate irradiation-induced liver cell apoptosis in Beagle dogs. METHODS: Healthy male Beagle dogs were randomly divided into normal control group, model control group, positive drug group (lentinan, 21.33 mg/kg) and cimetidine low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose groups (5.33, 10.67, 21.33 mg/kg), with 4 Beagle dogs each. Except for normal control group, other groups were given 60Co-γ accumulative irradiation (dosage rate: 0.040 8 mGy/min) for 23 d; the medication groups were given relevant medicine orally before irradiation, once a day. Twenty-four hours after stopping irradiation, TUNEL method was used to detect the apoptosis of liver cells in Beagle dogs. The percentage of apoptotic cells was calculated. The expression level of apoptosis-related proteins (Bax, Bcl-2, Caspase-3, p53) in liver tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: Compared with normal control group, apoptotic cells and Bax, Caspase-3, p53 positive cells were increased significantly in liver tissue of Beagle dogs in model control group; the percentage of apoptotic cells, protein expression levels of Bax, Caspase-3 and p53 were increased significantly; Bcl-2 positive cells were decreased significantly, and its protein expression level was decreased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with model control group, above positive cells of liver tissue in Beagle dogs were changed to different extents in medication groups; the percentage of apoptotic cells and protein expression levels of p53 in medication groups, protein expression levels of Bax in positive drug group, cimetidine low-dose and high-dose groups as well as protein expression levels of Caspase-3 in cimetidine groups were decreased significantly; protein expression levels of Bcl-2 were increased significantly in cimetidine groups. The percentage of apoptotic cells in cimetidine medium-dose and high-dose groups as well as protein expression levels of Caspase-3 in cimetidine groups were all lower than positive control group. Protein expression level of p53 in cimetidine low-dose group was significantly higher than positive drug group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Cimetidine can inhibit the low dose rate irradiation-induced apoptosis of liver cells in Beagle dogs, and certainly protect liver cells against irradiation. The mechanism of it may be associated with up-regulating the protein expression of Bcl-2 and down-regulating the protein expression of Bax, Caspase-3 and p53 in liver cells.
