ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the relationship between blocking antibody and lymphocyte subsets in elderly patients (age≥35 years old) with recurrent spontaneous abortion(RSA).Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted on the patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion who met the inclusion criteria from October 2014 to September 2019 in the Reproductive Center of Women Health Center of Shanxi.They were divided into two groups according to their ages: 66 cases in RSA group and 334 cases in normal pregnant age group.The blocking antibody and lymphocyte subsets were detected by flow cytometry.Results:The negative rate of blocking antibody in elderly recurrent spontaneous abortion patients was 77.27% (51/66), which was not significantly different from that in normal gestational recurrent spontaneous abortion patients (83.53%(279/334)) ( P=0.221), but significantly higher than that in normal women (23.46%(42/179)) ( P=0.001). The blocking antibody′s blocking efficiency results showed that the CD3′s blocking efficiency of elderly recurrent spontaneous abortion patients (0.10 (-0.50, 0.60)) was significantly lower than that of normal women (0.60 (0.00, 1.30)), the difference was statistically( P=0.001). The CD8 blocking efficiency of elderly recurrent spontaneous abortion patients (0.00 (-0.60, 0.63)) was significantly lower than that of normal women (0.30 (0.00, 0.70)), the difference was statistically( P=0.016). Lymphocyte subsets showed that the CD8 + T cell ratio in elderly recurrent spontaneous abortion patients (26.93±7.25) was significantly lower than that in normal gestational recurrent spontaneous abortion patients (29.22±7.29), the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.020). The CD4 + /CD8 + ratio in elderly recurrent spontaneous abortion patients (1.64±0.99) was significantly higher than that in normal gestational age recurrent spontaneous abortion patients (1.37±0.50), the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.030). The ratio of natural killer cells in elderly recurrent spontaneous abortion patients (16.13±7.10) was significantly higher than that in normal women (14.04±2.35), the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.022), and higher than that in normal gestational age recurrent spontaneous abortion women (15.57±7.02). Conclusion:There were differences in lymphocyte subsets between elderly RSA patients and normal pregnant women, and the increase of natural killer cell ratio may be an important factor in the occurrence of RSA, especially in elderly RSA patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of flow cytometry in detecting HPV E6／E7 mRNA of human papilloma virus (HPV) in the diagnosis of cervical lesions. Methods From January 2017 to September 2018,119 women with suspected cervical lesions in the department of gynecology and obstetrics of Shanxi Maternal and Child Health Hospital were selected. Flow cytometry was used to detect HPV E6 ／ E7 mRNA in cervical exfoliated cells of women,and the DNA of HPV was detected by the method of hybrid capture 2 (HC2). Results 31. 09%(37／119) HPV E6／E7 mRNA and 57. 14%(68 ／ 119) HPV DNA were positive in 119 cases. The positive rate of HPV E6／E7 mRNA in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia ( CIN)2+ group was 77. 78%(28／36),which was statistically significant compared with 20. 00%(4／20) in CIN1 group (χ2＝15. 246,P＜0. 01),and was statistically significant compared with 7. 94%(5／63) in nilm group (χ2＝50. 286,P＜0. 01) . In nilm group,HPV E6 ／ E7 mRNA positive rate was 7. 94%(5／63) and HPV DNA positive rate was 30. 16%(19 ／ 63),which was statistically significant (χ2＝10. 088,P＝0. 001) . In cin1 group,HPV E6／ E7 mRNA positive rate was 20. 00%(4 ／ 20) and HPV DNA positive rate was
