ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the effect of post- abortion care service based on Wechat follow-up on contraceptive compliance of multiple induced abortion patients, and to evaluate the satisfaction with PAC service. Methods:A quasi-experimental method was adopted. A total of 300 cases of induced abortion were selected in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from March 2018 to March 2019, with 150 cases from eastern branch in the experimental group and 150 cases from western branch in the control group. The control group received routine nursing care and post-abortion care service based on telephone follow-up, while the experimental group received routine nursing care and post-abortion care service based on Wechat follow-up. The missing rate of follow-up, the contraceptive method and the occurrence of unexpected pregnancy within one year after operation were collected in the two groups. Patients ′ follow-up compliance and nursing satisfaction were evaluated. Results:The awareness of the risk of induced abortion in the experimental group was 90.4% (120/135) higher than that in the control group 77.5% (88/111), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ 2 value was 9.128, P=0.010). The contraceptive consciousness of the two groups was 99.3% (134/135) and 94.6% (105/135), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( χ 2 value was 3.256, P=0.071). There was a statistically significant difference in the missing rate of follow-up between the two groups in January, March, June, and December ( χ 2 value was 13.664, P=0.003). Compared with 19.8% (22/111) in the control group, 73.3% (99/135) patients in the study group chose high-efficiency contraception, the difference was statistically significant ( χ 2 value was 69.795, P<0.01).There were no recurring pregnancies in the experimental group within one year, compared with 6.3% (7/111) in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( χ 2 value was 6.630, P=0.003). In the experimental group, the participation rate of the follow-up were (95.37±12.29)%, which were higher than that in the control group (90.77±16.49)%. The difference was statistically significant ( t value was 2.438, P<0.05). The overall satisfaction score of the experimental group was 26.55 ± 2.80, which was higher than that of the control group (23.66 ± 3.32). The difference was statistically significant ( t value was 7.285, P <0.01). Conclusion:Post-abortion care service based on Wechat follow-up could enhance patients ′ compliance and satisfaction, guide patients to choose the right contraceptive methods, reduce the rate of repeated abortion and promote female reproductive health.

ABSTRACT
Objective@#To investigate the effect of knee-chest position on exhaust and defecation of gynecologic diseases patients after laparoscopic surgery.@*Methods@#This quasi-experiment trail was conducted between July 2016 to May 2017, in a birth control ward at an obstetrics and gynecology hospital in Beijing, China. The study included a total of 258 patients who had gynecological benign diseases and received gynecological laparoscopic surgery. Participants were recruited in the trail by using a convenient sampling method with 130 patients who received gynecological laparoscopic surgery from July 2016 to December 2016 in the experimental group (on the basis of routine care, patients preformed a knee-chest position intervention after 6 hours of the surgery) and 128 patients who received gynecologic laparoscopic surgery between January 2017 and May 2017 in the control group (patients received a routine care). The primary end point was the postoperative anal exhaust.@*Results@#The ambulation rate before post-operative ventilation of the experimental group was 21.5% (28/130) less than that of the control group (91.4%, 117/128). The difference was statistically significant (χ2=127.903, P<0.01). The incidence of abdominal distension after operation was 0, lower than that of the control group 7.0% (9/128), the difference was statistically significant (χ2=9.471, P<0.01). The postoperative exhaust time and defecation time of the experimental group was (8.17 ± 2.88) h,(27.86 ± 4.29) h, earlier than that of the control group, (21.24 ± 5.90) h,(38.69 ± 7.73) h, and the differences were statistically significant (t=22.580, 13.885, P<0.01).@*Conclusions@#Postoperative knee-chest position significantly improved the exhaust and defecation of patients with gynecological benign disease after laparoscopic surgery.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of isoliquiritigenin on the migration and invasion of human glioma stem cells and the underlying mechanism.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The stem cell markers CD133 and Nestin in SHG44 human glioma stem cells were examined with immunofluorescence microscopy. The migration and invasion ability of glioma stem cells was determined by transwell method. The mRNA and protein expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 were detected by real-time RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>CD133 and Nestin were positive in SHG44 cells. The number of migrated cells in SHG44 cells treated with 20 and 80 μmol/L isoliquiritigenin for 48 h were significantly lower than that in control group (76±5 and 42±4 vs. 85±6, all <0.01), and the number of migrated cells in 80 μmol/L isoliquiritigenin group was lower than that in 20 μmol/L isoliquiritigenin group (<0.01). The numbers of cells crossing through membrane in 20 and 80 μmol/L isoliquiritigenin groups were 190±13 and 130±9, respectively, which were significantly lower than that in control group (230±14, all <0.01), and the number of crossed cells in the 80 μmol/L isoliquiritigenin group was lower than that in 20 μmol/L isoliquiritigenin group (<0.01). The mRNA and protein expression levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were decreased compared with control group (<0.05 or <0.01), and the expression levels in 80 μmol/L isoliquiritigenin group were lower than those in 20 μmol/L isoliquiritigenin group (<0.05 or <0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Isoliquiritigenin exhibits antitumor effects on glioma stem cells by inhibiting cell migration and invasion, which may be related to the down-regulation of MMP-2 and MMP-9.</p>

Background Triamcinolone acetonide (TA) is often used in the treatment of uveitis and fundus disease,but whether it has toxic effect to normal tissue around eyes is unclear.Objective The aim of this study was to explore the adverse and toxic effects of TA on the periorbitally normal tissue following the periocular injection.Methods Twenty-seven New Zealand albino rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group,normal saline solution group and blank control group.TA was periocularly injected twice (20 mg for each) at 1-month interval in the rabbits of the experimental group,and 0.5 ml normal saline solution was used in the same way in the rabbits of the normal saline solution group.Not any drug was used in the blank group.The rabbits were sacrificed 1 month and 2 months,3 months after the secondary injection.For the preparation of the specimens of extraocular muscles,peribulbus adipose tissue,lacrimal gland and optic nerve.Hematoxylin and eosin staining of the specimens was performed to examine the the pathological change under the optical microscope,and the ultrastructural of peribulbus tissues was observed under the transmission electron microscope.Results No statistically significant change was found in IOP among various time points and groups (Fgroup =0.952,P =0.881 ; Ftime =7.297,P =0.411).The hyphological structures and ultrastructure of extraocular muscles,peribulbus adipose tissue,lacrimal gland and optic nerve were normal in the rabbits of the normal saline solution group and the blank control group.However,the optical microscopy showed varying degrees of atrophy or dissolving in the extraocular muscle fibers,the increase of glandular epithelial cells and enlargement of nuclei in the lacrimal gland as well as visible disorder arrangement of nerve fibers,vacuoles degeneration and the decrease of glial cells in optial nerve tissue in the rabbits of the experimental group from 1 month though 3 months after the secondary injection.Under the transmission electron microscope,the muscle stripes,bright band and dark band were incompletely disappeared,and expansionary sarcoplasmic reticulum and oval nucleus at the inferior to sarolemma were seen in the extraocular muscles.In addition,swelling lacrimal gland epithelial cells,thickening nuclear membrane and more organelles were exhibited in the lacrimal gland.In the optic never tissue,uneven myelin,space between axons and myelin,lamellar separation and degeneration also were revealed in the rabbits of the experimental group after injection of TA.Peribulbus adipose tissue was near normal both by optical microscope and transmission electron microscope in the experimental group.Conclusions The periocular injection of TA dose not elevated the IOP.However,it will result in the histogical and ultrastructural damages of extraocular muscles,lacrimal gland and optic nerve.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate high risk factors associated with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) in married women aged 25 to 54 years in Beijing. Methods From Mar. 2007 to Sep.2008, 6339 married women at age of 25 to 54 years were selected randomly by cross sectional survey in a total of 137 communities of 12 districts or counties in Beijing. The interview was carried out with unified questionnaires, gynecological examination. The cervical smear cytology and high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection of cervical secretion were detected. Women with abnormal cervical cytology underwent colposcopy and cervical biopsy. Odd ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of related high risk factors with CIN were studied by logistic regression analysis. Results Among 6339 women, the prevalence rate of CIN including 4 squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) was 5. 90% (374/6339). By multinomial regression analysis, HR-HPV infection (95% CI: 9. 953 - 15.811 ), History of trichomonas vaginitis (95 % CI: 1. 046 -2. 104), oral contraceptives (95% CI: 1. 087 - 1. 806), age less than 45 years old ( 95% CI: 1. 069 -1. 828) were related with CIN. Conclusion Infection rate of HR-HPV is an independent risk factor of CIN, however, the history of trichomonas vaginitis, oral contraceptives and age less than 45 years old are related risk factors of CIN.
