ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the differences in understanding and diagnosis of polycystic ovary syn-drome(PCOS)among obstetricians and gynecologists with different clinical experiences,in order to promote com-munication and improve medical quality.Methods:This was a multi-center cross-sectional survey.Information on participants'basic information and their knowledge of PCOS comorbidities and treatment management was col-lected online.Physicians were divided into two groups according to their experience:experienced(>200 consulta-tions/year)and inexperienced(≤200 consultations/year).The differences in the diagnosis and treatment of PCOS among different groups were compared.Logistic regression analysis was used to explore other factors that might influence the diagnosis and treatment of PCOS.Results:1689 questionnaires were finally included,among which 95 were experienced and 1594 were inexperienced.①In the comparison of basic conditions,the proportion of experienced persons in tertiary hospitals and reproductive endocrinology specialties was higher than that of in-experienced persons(P<0.05);The percentage of experienced persons who predicted patients with comorbid insulin resistance(proportion>30%)and predicted comorbid overweight/obesity(proportion 30%-50%)was higher than that of less experienced persons(P<0.05).②There was no significant difference in the evaluation of PCOS and its complications among different groups(P>0.05).Logistic regression suggested that different expe-riencers did not significantly affect the assessment of androgens,OGTT and lipid testing(P>0.05).③There was no statistical significance in the choice of treatment for those with no fertility need(P>0.05).For those with fertili-ty needs,metformin and letrozole were more actively selected by experienced group than inexperience(P<0.05).In terms of weight loss,experienced participants were more active in using metformin(P<0.05)and were more likely to choose1.0 or1.5 g/d(P<0.05)than those with inexperience.Conclusions:There was no signifi-cant difference in PCOS assessment among participants with different experience,but in treatment,experienced participants were better able to take into account the multi-system abnormalities brought by PCOS,and at the same time,they give more comprehensive and accurate treatment opinions on patients with or without fertility needs.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND@#As one of the most common endocrinal disorders for women at childbearing age, the diagnostic criteria of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have been defined differently among different international health organizations. Phenotypic heterogeneity of PCOS also brings about difficulties for its diagnosis and management assessment. Therefore, more efficient biomarkers representing the progression of PCOS are expected to be integrated into the monitoring of management process using metabolomic approaches.@*METHODS@#In this prospective randomized controlled trial, 117 PCOS patients were enrolled from December 2016 to September 2017. Classical diagnostic parameters, blood glucose, and metabolome were measured in these patients before and at 2 months and 3 months of different medical interventions. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were built based on multivariate statistical analysis using data at baseline and 3 months' management, and combinational biomarkers with appreciable sensitivity and specificity were selected, which then validated with data collected at 2 months.@*RESULTS@#A set of metabolites including glutamic acid, aspartic acid, 1-methylnicotinamide, acetylcarnitine, glycerophosphocholine, and oleamide were filtered out with high performance in representing the improvement through 3-month management of PCOS with high sensitivity and specificity in ROC analysis and validation with other two groups showed an appreciable area under the curve over 0.96.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The six metabolites were representative of the remission of PCOS through medical intervention, making them a set of potential biomarkers for assessing the outcome of PCOS management.@*TRIAL REGISTRATION@#ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03264638.

ABSTRACT

To rapidly and accurately manipulate genome such as gene deletion, insertion and site mutation, the whole genome of a very virulent strain Md5 of Marek's disease virus (MDV) was inserted into bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) through homogeneous recombination. The recombinant DNA was electroporated into DH10B competent cells and identified by PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. An infectious clone of Md5BAC was obtained following transfection into chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) cells. Furthermore, a lorf10 deletion mutant was constructed by two step Red-mediated homologous recombination. To confirm the specific role of gene deletion, the lorf10 was reinserted into the original site of MDV genome to make a revertant strain. All the constructs were rescued by transfection into CEF cells, respectively. The successful packaging of recombinant viruses was confirmed by indirect immunofluorescence assay. The results of growth kinetics assay and plaques area measurement showed that the lorf10 is dispensable for MDV propagation in vitro. Overall, this study successfully constructed an infectious BAC clone of MDV and demonstrated its application in genome manipulation; the knowledge gained from our study could be further applied to other hepesviruses.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the importance of the diagnosis and treatment value of laparoscopy and hysteroscopy in patients with unexplained infertility.Methods:A total of 519 cases diagnosed as unexplained infertility, received laparoscopy and hysteroscopy in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from May 2012 to December 2015. The causes of infertility were evaluated, and the subjects were followed up to observe the nature pregnancy rate.Results:Among 519 unexplained infertility patients, pelvic abnormalities had been explored in 466 (89.8%, 466/519) cases. Pelvic endometriosis combined with adhesions, pelvic adhesion alone, uterine leiomyoma and uterine cavity polyp were 72.4% (376/519), 12.3% (64/519), 3.7% (19/519) and 1.3% (7/519) respectively. The total natural pregnancy rate within the 3 years of follow up was 53.9% (208/386), and the natural pregnancy rate was 29.8% (31/104) in patients aged 35 years and over.Conclusions:The patients with clinical diagnosis of unexplained infertility should be examined by hysteroscopy and laparoscopy. Under the examination, the causes of infertility could be found more intuitively, and targeted treatment could be carried out to improve the pregnancy rate. The natural pregnancy rate of the elderly patients decrease obviously after operation, and the time of natural trying pregnancy should not be too long.

ABSTRACT

A consensus on the clinical management of fetal-maternal hemorrhage (FMH) has been reached. We review here other aspects of FMH which we believe should also be considered, including the diagnostic criteria of sinusoidal fetal heart rate pattern, mechanisms of assisted diagnostic methods such as Kleihauer-Betke test and flow cytometry test, differential diagnosis of fetal edema associated with FMH, the timing of intrauterine transfusions, the relationship between FMH and intra-placental choriocarcinoma, and risk of recurrent FMH in subsequent pregnancies, for a better understanding of this disease and its management.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects and safety of short-term telbivudine intervention on blocking mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in pregnant women with hepatitis B e antigens (HBeAg) positive during mid-gestation. Methods Fifty-four chronic HBV infection pregnant women with HBeAg positive from November 2016 to November 2017 in Dalian Sixth People′s Hospital Affiliated to Dalian Medical University were selected, and the serum HBV DNA (logarithmic transformation) of pregnant women was ≥1010 U/L. The pregnant women began oral telbivudine 600 mg at the 24th week of pregnancy, 1 time/d, and stopped at the day of delivery. The neonates were injected 10 μg hepatitis B vaccine and 100 U HBV immunoglobin 12 h after parturition, and they were injected 10 μg hepatitis B vaccine at 1 and 6 months of birth. The HBV DNA, creatine kinase (CK), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and total bilirubin (TBIL) at 12th, 24th, 28th, 32th week of pregnancy and 1, 7 months after parturition were detected. The hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) of infants during 28 to 32 weeks of birth were detected. Results There were no statistical differences in CK, ALT and TBIL of 54 pregnant women (P>0.05). The HBV DNA at 28th, 32th week of pregnancy and 1 month after parturition was significantly lower than that at 12th week of pregnancy (5.7 ± 2.2, 5.1 ± 2.3 and 8.3 ± 1.7 vs. 9.5 ± 1.0), and there was statistical difference (P<0.05); there was no statistical difference between 7 months and 12th week of pregnancy after parturition (P>0.05). During 28 to 30 weeks of birth, all the neonates showed serum HBsAb>109 U/L and HBsAg < 30 U/L. Conclusions Short-term intervention with telbivudine in mid-gestation for pregnant women infected with HBV could significantly reduce the level of serum HBV-DNA to the safety level or below. The adverse effects are not found during the telbivudine intervention period. Of note, after drug withdrawal, the HBV DNA level will rebound variously. The virus related detection conducted on the neonates indicates that short-term telbivudine intervention can realize complete MTCT blocking.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effect of low-dose or standard-dose conjugated equine estrogen (CEE)combined with natural progesterone or dydrogesterone on bone density in menopause syndrome women.Methods Totally 123 patients with menopause syndrome were recruited and randomly assigned to 3 treatment groups: group A(low-dose CEE+progesterone), group B(standard-dose CEE+progesterone), group C(standard-dose CEE+dydrogesterone). Using continuous sequential regimen, the duration of intervention was 12 cycles.The bone mineral density of lumbar 2-4 and neck of femur,the bone metabolic markers, the level of FSH and estradiol were examined just before the drug administration and 12 months after the beginning of experiment. Results There were 107 cases completed the one year trial.(1)Bone density:after 12 cycles of treatment,there was no significant change in bone density in group A(P>0.05);lumbar vertebrae of group B and C increased significantly,at 3.0% and 2.1%respectively(all P<0.05).The bone density of left femoral neck of group C significantly increased by 2.9%(P=0.029). There was no significant difference among the treatment groups at the beginning of experiment(P>0.05).(2)Bone metabolic markers: after 12 cycles of treatment, the levels of calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, Ca/Cr decreased significantly,the difference were statistically significant(all P<0.05).There was no significant difference among the treatment groups at the beginning of experiment(P>0.05).(3)Levels of FSH and estradiol:after 12 cycles of treatment,the levels of FSH in three groups were decreased significantly(all P<0.01). The levels of estradiol in three groups were increased significantly(all P<0.01). There was no significant difference among the treatment groups at the beginning of experiment(P>0.05). Conclusions Both low-dose and standard-dose menopause hormone therapy(MHT)could elevate the level of estradiol, reduce bone turnover, prevent bone loss of postmenopausal women effectively. The standard dose of MHT could also increase the density of vertebrae and femoral neck,and generate more clinical benefits.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the clinical efficacy of YANG's pricking-cupping therapy for knee osteoar thritis (KOA). Methods This was a multi-center randomized parallel controlled trial. One hundred and seventy one patients with KOA were randomly allocated to a pricking-cupping group (89 cases) and a conventional acu puncture group (82 cases). Neixiyan (EX-LE 4), Dubi (ST 35) and ashi points were selected in the two groups. Patients in the pricking-cupping group were treated with YANG's pricking-cupping therapy; the seven-star needles were used to perform pricking at acupoints, then cupping was used until slight bleeding was observed. Patients in the conventional acupuncture group were treated with semi-standardized filiform needle therapy. The treatment was given for 4 weeks (from a minimum of 5 times to a maximum of 10 times). The follow-up visit was 4 weeks. The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and the visual analogue scale (VAS) were adopted for the efficacy assessments.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The pain score, stiffness score, physical function score and total score of WOMAC were all reduced after 4-week treatment and during follow-up visit in the two groups (all P<0. 0001). Except that the difference of stiffness score between the two groups was not significant after 4-week treatment (P>0. 05), each score and total score of WOMAC in the pricking-cupping group were lower than those in the conventional acupuncture group after 4-week treatment and during follow-up visit (P<0. 0001, P<0. 01). After 2-week treatment, 4-week treatment and during follow-up visit, the VAS was all reduced compared with that before treatment (all P<0. 0001) ; with the increase of the treatment, the reducing trend of VAS was more significant (P<0. 0001). The scores of VAS in the pricking-cupping group were lower than those in the conventional acupuncture group after 4-week treatment and during follow-up visit (P < 0. 01, P <0. 0001). CONCLUSION The YANG's pricking-cupping and conventional acupuncture therapy can both significantly improve knee joint pain and function in patients with KOA, which are relatively safe. The pricking cupping therapy is superior to conventional acupuncture with the identical selection of acupoints.</p>

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the incidence of endometriosis in inpatients with infertility in Peking Union Medical College Hospital in 30 years. Methods The inpatients of Peking Union Medical College Hospital admitted between May 1983 and November 2013 was searched. The infertile patients receiving laparoscopy or laparotomy were included. The discharge diagnosis and the operation were summarized. The incidence of gynecologic diseases were demonstrated, such as endometriosis, pelvic adhesions, uterine fibroid, hydrosalpinx, ovarian benign tumor, and adenomyosis. The age was collected, and the change of age and the incidence of endometriosis was analyzed. Results The incidence of endometriosis in infertile female inpatients was 35.50%(95%CI:34.50%-36.49%). The incidence showed relatively stable increasing tendency after 2004 (with P<0.01). The age had increased significantly since 1996 (with P<0.01);the average age was (29.76±3.74) years old in 1996, and (32.85±4.49) years old in 2013 (P<0.01). The inpatients diagnosed with endometriosis had greater age, (32.67 ± 4.06) versus (32.04 ± 4.55) years old (P<0.01);the incidence of endometriosis differed in different age group, the older group had higher incidence (χ2=85.807, P<0.01). Conclusions Infertile female inpatients showed increasing incidence of endometriosis in recent years. Older infertile patients maybe have higher risk of endometriosis.

ABSTRACT

AIM:To investigate the effects of angiotensin II ( Ang II) on the immune maturation and the oxi-dized low-density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL)-uptaking capacity of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs).METH-ODS:Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated by density gradient centrifugation , and the monocytes were purified by positive selection with anti-CD14 magnetic beads.After cultured with rhGM-CSF (100 μg/L) and rhIL-4 (50μg/L) for 5 d, the monocytes differentiated into immature DCs .On the 6th day of the culture, the cells were treated with various concentration levels of Ang II or pretreated with losartan .The immunophenotypic expression of HLA-DR and CD83 was analyzed by flow cytometry .The secretion levels of IL-12 and IFN-γin the culture supernatants were measured by ELISA.Furthermore, DCs were incubated with DiI-labelled Ox-LDL.The DiI-Ox-LDL-incorporated fraction was investiga-ted by flow cytometry .The mRNA expression of 3 scavenger receptors , scavenger receptor A ( SR-A) , CD36 and lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1 (LOX-1), was examined by real-time PCR.RESULTS: Ang II induced the maturation of human monocyte-derived DCs, stimulated the expression of CD83 and HLA-DR, and promoted the secre-tion of IL-12 and IFN-γ, which were suppressed by losartan .Furthermore, Ang II increased the Ox-LDL-uptaking capacity of DCs, which was partially reduced by losartan .The incubation of DCs with Ang II enhanced the mRNA expression of LOX-1 in a dose-dependent manner , which was reduced by losartan .However, the expression of SR-A and CD36 was not changed .CONCLUSION:Ang II promotes the immune maturation of human monocyte-derived DCs and increases the up-take of Ox-LDL probably through the up-regulation of LOX-1 expression.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the change of multiple electrocardiogram(ECG) parameters and their impact on P-R interval in pregnant women.Methods Healthy women aged 20-40 years were enrolled and divided into 4 groups:control group (n =194),early-pregnant group (n =172),mediate-stage group (n =105)and late-phase group(111).The following data were collected for analysis:heart rate (HR),axis,rotation,P-R interval(on lead V3),and p wave duration(on lead Ⅱ).Between-group analysis and multiple liner regression analysis were conducted.Results Compared with the control group,we found no significant difference in the early-pregnant group,but HR significantly increased in the mediate-stage group and late-phase group((77.76 ± 14.75) beat/min vs.(78.12 ± 11.24) beat/min vs.(84.21 ± 11.91) beat/min vs.(88.15 ± 15.05) beat/min,P < 0.05).BP increased with the duration of pregnancy.Axis and P wave duration decreased with the duration of pregnancy.We found no significant difference in the early-pregnant group,but significantly decreased axis and P wave duration in the mediate-stage group and late-phase group (axis:(61.11 ± 225.84) ° vs.(56.97 ±25.17)° vs.(50.11 ±21.78)° vs.(41.72 ±28.36)°,P <0.05;P wave duration:(0.100 ±0.015)s vs.(0.099 ± 0.012) s vs.(0.095 ± 0.013) s vs.(0.093 ± 0.013) s,P < 0.05).P-R interval was significantly shorter in women at all the three stages of pregnancy than in the healthy controls ((0.145 ± 0.021)) svs.(0.138±0.019) s vs.(0.133 ±0.020) s vs.(0.131 ±0.019) s,P <0.05).There was no significant difference found in heart rotation proportion among the four groups.Multiple liner regression analysis indicated that only pregnancy factors (t =-4.607,P =0.000) and p wave duration (t =9.339,P =0.000) had significant influences on P-R interval.Conclusion P-R interval is negatively correlated to pregnancy stage and positively correlated to p wave duration,but irrelevant to HR and axis in pregnant women.
