ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the influence of selective fetoscopic laser occlusion of chorioangiopagous vessels (FLOC) versus Solomon surgery in the management of twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) on procedure-related complications, fetal survival rate, and residual anastomoses.Methods:A total of 59 pregnant women with TTTS who underwent FLOC in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from May 2018 to March 2020 were retrospectively enrolled and divided into Solomon ( n=33) and selective FLOC groups ( n=26) based on the FLOC operation method. Placentae of 25 pregnant women (15 in the Solomon group, 10 in the selective FLOC group) with both survival twins were perfused to observe the type and diameter of the residual anastomoses. Fetal survival rate, procedure-related complications, and the type and diameter of residual anastomoses were analyzed and compared between the two groups using two independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test and Fisher's exact test. Results:(1) The operating time of Solomon was shorter than that of selective FLOC [74 min (60-90 min) vs 95 min (81-123 min), Z=2.906, P=0.004]. But no statistically significant differences in the gestational week at operation, time of pregnancy end, and the interval between operation and pregnancy end was observed between the two groups (all P>0.05). (2) There was no statistically significant difference in the survival rate of both twins, one fetus, at least one fetus, and the incidence of postoperative twin anemia-polycythemia sequence (TAPS) and recurrent TTTS in the Solomon group and selective FLOC group [64%(21/33) vs 50%(13/26), χ2=1.107; 15%(5/33) vs 35%(9/26), χ2=3.044; 79%(26/33) vs 85%(22/26), χ2=0.326; 3%(1/33) vs 12%(3/26), χ2=1.368; 0% (0/33) vs 4%(1/26), χ2=1.118; all P>0.05]. (3) There was no statistically significant difference in the number of placentae with residual anastomoses or the number of artery-to-vein, vein-to-artery, artery-to-artery, and vein-to-vein anastomoses between the two groups (7/15 vs 6/10, 2/8 vs 4/15, 3/8 vs 4/15, 2/8 vs 5/15, 1/8 vs 2/15; Fisher's exact test, all P>0.05), but the diameter of the residual anastomoses in the Solomon group was smaller than that in the selective FLOC group [(0.8±0.3) and (2.2±0.7) mm, t=0.764, P=0.034]. (4) Among the four pregnant women developed TAPS after operation, one patient had two residual artery-to-vein anastomoses in the placenta with diameter of 0.54 mm and 0.43 mm, respectively; one patient had one artery-to-vein anastomosis with a diameter of 0.64 mm; one had one artery-to-artery and one vein-to-vein anastomosis with diameter of 1.56 mm and 1.89 mm, respectively. Conclusions:Compared with selective FLOC, Solomon surgery can reduce the vessel diameter of residual anastomoses in women with TTTS, but does not reduce postoperative complications, nor improve the pregnancy outcomes.

ABSTRACT

To analyze the differentially expressed proteins which interacted with NF-kappaB in the uterine lower segment smooth muscle tissues under different status of labor onset, and to provide a new foundation on the mechanisms for labor onset.
 Methods: NF-κB P65 protein expression in smooth muscle tissues from the term non-labor group, natural term labor group and drug-induced term labor group was analyzed by Western blot. Co-immunoprecipitation and SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) were performed to detect the proteins interacting with NF-κB p65 in the NF-κB p65 complexes. The components of the complex were identified by LC-ESI-MS/MS (liquid chromatography-tandem electrospray mass spectrometry) and database analysis. The identified differentially expressed proteins were confirmed by Western blot.
 Results: Positive expression of NF-κB was detected in all of the three groups. 10 differentially expressed proteins were identified by LC-ESI-MS/MS in human lower segment myometrium tissues in the term non-labor group and natural term labor group, mean while, 5 differentially expressed proteins were identified in the term non-labor group and the drug-induced labor group. 3 differential expression proteins were detected in all of the 3 groups, including Heat shock 70, Annexin A6 and Desmin, which were verified by Western blot. These proteins were mainly involved in chaperone, signal transduction, cell structure, and energy metabolism process, respectively.
 Conclusion: NF-κB expressed in uterine smooth muscle cells is involved in the process of initiation and regulation of labor onset through a number of proteins relevant to signal transduction, cell structure and energy metabolism.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To identify the screening time and prepare a screening schedule for outpatients with acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP).
@*METHODS@#AFLP patients who admitted to Xiangya Hospital and the Second Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Hunan, China between November, 2006 and December, 2013, were retrospectively studied. The diagnosis of 78 AFLP patients met the domestic clinical and laboratory criteria and the Swansea criteria. Clinical and laboratory data obtained on admission were used for analysis. Contrastive analysis was conducted within our data and other large medical centers or general hospitals. 
@*RESULTS@#The difference between domestic clinical and laboratory criteria and Swansea criteria in diagnosing AFLP patients in the 2 hospitals mentioned above was significant (P<0.05). The maternal mortality was 14.10% (11/78) and perinatal mortality was 17.95 % (14/78). The mean gestational age at delivery was 35.6 weeks. Based on the clinical and laboratory data, more than 85% of AFLP patients showed abnormal levels of transaminase, bilirubin, and white blood cells, as well as coagulation dysfunction. Gastrointestinal symptoms, such as abdominal pain and vomiting, jaundice, renal impairment and ascites or bright liver on ultrasound scan, were showed in 50%-85% of AFLP patients. Less than 50% of patients suffered from low blood sugar, high blood ammonia or hepatic encephalopathy.
@*CONCLUSION@#The 34th gestation week might be important time for screening AFLP outpatients. Gastrointestinal symptoms, blood routine, liver function, and coagulant function tests are recommended as the first grade screening indicators. Renal function, blood sugar test, and abdominal ultrasound could be the second grade screening indicators for AFLP outpatients.
