ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of the combination of western medicine with acupuncture for treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) of infertility.Methods Totally 120 PCOS patients were randomly divided into western medicine group and acupuncture group, 60 cases in each group. All patients took Diane-35, and with whom resistant to insulin were added with Metformin. At the meantime patients increased the amount of exercise with adjustment and control of everyday diet. After three periods, the western medicine group used the method of Clomifene Citrate with Chorionic Gonadotropin to help ovulation induction. The acupuncture group used the method of acupoint selection including invigorating spleen and kidney with adjusting qi and blood to promote ovulation. The level of FSH, LH, FINS, E2 and T of the two groups were observed before and after treatment.Results After treatment, the levels of T, FINS, LH and BMI in the two groups decreased, with statistical significance (P<0.05). The levels of T and BMI in the acupuncture group were lower than the western medicine group after the treatment, with statistical significance (P<0.05). The total efficiency, gestation number, number of high-quality follicle, and basal body temperature of acupuncture group were all higher than the western medicine group, with statistical significance (P<0.05).Conclusion The combination of western medicine with acupuncture for treatment of PCOS of infertility has confirmed efficacy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To detect the expression of miRNA -34a in normal cervical,low grade cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia and high grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia,to explore its clinical significance.Methods The expression levels of miRNA -34a in 82 cases of low grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CINⅠ,CIN L group),87 cases of high grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CINⅡ -Ⅲ,CIN H group) and 60 cases of normal cervical tissues (control group) in tissue specimens and serum were examined by real -time PCR(RT -PCR). Results The relative expression levels of miRNA -34a in tissues and serum of CIN H group were (0.584 ± 0.288),(0.528 ±0.299),which of CIN L group were (0.903 ±0.252),(0.847 ±0.279),which of the control group were (0.960 ±0.212),(0.908 ±0.223).The miRNA -34a level of CIN H group in tissues and serum were lower than CIN L group and control group,there was significant difference( Ptissues =0.001,Pserum =0.003).The miRNA -34a level in tissue and serum had no significant difference between the CINL group and control group(P >0.05).The expression level of serum miRNA -34a was positively related with the level of the tissues(r =0.907,P <0.01).Conclusion The expression level of miRNA -34a in high grade CIN was significantly decreased,which indi-cated that miRNA -34a play an important role in the prognosis of CIN and the transformation of cervical cancer,and it has certain clinical value for the diagnosis and treatment of CIN.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the relationship between Stathmin-1 and human papilloma viruse (HPV) persistent infection after conization of uterine cervix, and to show the clinical significance to recurrent of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Methods One hundred and six patients who were treated with conization of uterine cervix for CIN 2-3 grades were enrolled. Thirty-six recurrent patients were enrolled in recurrence group, and the others were enrolled in control group. The expression of Stathmin-1 in primary CIN tissues in two groups was detected by immunohistochemistry. The HPV infection was detected by HPV-DNA test. The relationship of HPV persistent infection and recurrence was analyzed. Results The positive expression rate of HPV persistent infection and HPV persistent infection rate in recurrence group were 88.89%(32/36), 83.33%(30/36), in control group were 34.29%(24/70) and 22.86%(16/70), and there were significant difference (P 0.05). Conclusions Stathmin-1 positive expression is related to HPV persistent infection. The two factors can affect the prognosis of high-grade CIN, and can provide new cues and theory basis for the prevention of recurrence.
