Analysis of the efficacy and related influencing factors of pelvic packing in the treatment of intractable postpartum hemorrhage after emergency perinatal hysterectomy / 中华妇产科杂志

Objective:To investigate the effect of pelvic packing on the control of intractable postpartum hemorrhage after emergency perinatal hysterectomy (EPH).Methods:Eleven cases with complete clinical data of pelvic packing due to failure of hemostasis after EPH were collected to evaluate the outcome, complications, hospital stay of pregnant women, and to analyze the factors affecting the effect of pelvic packing. The cases included patients who were admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University after pelvic packing treatment in the other hospital due to continuous bleeding after EPH or who were referred to our hospital for pelvic packing treatment due to continuous bleeding after EPH from January 2014 to August 2021.Results:The median gestational week of 11 pregnant women was 38.3 weeks(38.0-39.9 weeks) , and the methods of termination of pregnancy were cesarean section in 7 cases (7/11) and vaginal delivery in 4 cases (4/11). The median time between postpartum hemorrhage and pelvic tamponade was 10 hours (5-57 hours), the median amount of bleeding was 8 500 ml(4 800-15 600 ml) , the median number of pelvic tamponade was 3 pieces (2-7 pieces), and the median retention time of gauze pad was 6.0 days (3.0-6.0 days). The median frequency of laparotomy in this pregnancy was 3 times (2-3 times), with a maximum of 4 among the 11 cases, the first pelvic packing was successful in hemostasis in 9 cases, and the final successful treatment in all of the 11 cases. All parturients had hemorrhagic shock (11/11) and disseminated intravascular coagulation (11/11) before pelvic packing. Other common complications were multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (9/11), cardiac arrest (4/11), deep vein thrombosis (3/11), septic shock (3/11), and intestinal obstruction (1/11). All parturients took out the gauze after the coagulation function returned to normal and there was no active bleeding. The recovery time of coagulation function in 11 cases was 3 days (3-5 days), the retention time of gauze pad was 6 days (3-6 days), the median length of stay in intensive care unit was 14 days (11-26 days), and the median total length of stay was 22 days (16-49 days).Conclusions:Pelvic packing could be used as a temporary strategy for intractable postpartum hemorrhage after EPH, which provides a key time for injury control resuscitation for patients with unstable vital signs. This technology provides an opportunity for referral to superior medical institutions and further treatment.

Safety of PICC dressing replacement frequency in premature infants: a randomized controlled study / 中国新生儿科杂志

Objective:To study the safety of different peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) dressing replacement frequencies in preterm infants.Method:From June 2017 to February 2020, preterm infants were enrolled in this prospective randomized controlled study. Preterm infants with PICC were randomly assigned into 7 d, 11 d and 14 d dressing replacement groups using online randomization software. Polyurethane transparent dressing and the same dressing replacement method were used in all three groups. The incidences of catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) and positive skin bacterial culture at dressing site were compared among the three groups.Result:A total of 296 cases were enrolled, including 96 cases in the 7 d group, 108 cases in the 11 d group and 92 cases in the 14 d group. The incidences of CRBSI in three groups were 2.5/1 000 catheter day in 7 d group, 1.1/1 000 catheter day in 11 d group and 0.8/1 000 catheter day in 14 d group. The incidences of catheter pathogen colonization were 1.0% in 7 d group, 0.9% in 11 d group and 0% in 14 d group. The positive rates of skin bacterial culture at dressing site were 1.0% in 7 d group, 2.8% in 11d group and 2.2% in 14 d group. The incidences of PICC exit site infection in three groups were 1.0% in 7 d group, 0.9% in 11d group and 1.1% in 14 d group and no significant differences existed among the groups ( P>0.05). Gram-positive cocci were the main bacteria [91.7% (11/12)] of CRBSI and skin bacterial culture at dressing site and gram negative bacilli accounted for 8.3% (1/12). No fungal infection were found. Conclusion:It is safe to replace the PICC dressing in premature infants as needed within 14 days if the dressing is intact without curling, bleeding and exudation.

Ratio of transfer cesarean section after trial of labor and maternal-fetal adverse outcomes based on Robson classifications / 中华妇产科杂志

Objective To investigate the ratio of transfer cesarean section after trial of labor and maternal-fetal outcomes based on Robson classifications.Methods The delivery data by cesarean section in Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 1st,2009 to December 31st,2015 (gestational age ＞28 weeks and newborn birth weight ＞1 000 g) were retrospectively collected.The ratio of transfer cesarean section after trial of labor and maternal-fetal adverse outcomes were analyzed by weighted adverse outcome score in different Robson classifications.Results (1) The highest ratio of transfer cesarean section after trial of labor was classification 9 (all abnormal lies,including previous cesarean section and breech were excluded) reached 47.31％ (431/911),followed by classification 2 (nulliparous women with a single cephalic pregnancy,＞37 weeks gestation who had labour induced) accounted for 44.90％(409/911).(2)The tops of weighted adverse outcome score of transfer cesarean section after trial of labor were classification 10 (single cephalic pregnancy at ＜37 weeks gestation,including women with previous cesarean delivery) 24.55,classification 5 (single cephalic pregnancy multiparous women,with at least one previous cesarean delivery,＞37weeks gestation) 3.64.Conclusion Carefully evaluating the delivery mode and emphasizing the intrapartum management in nulliparous women with a single cephalic pregnancy,at ＞ 37 weeks gestation who had labour induced and trial of labor after cesarean section is essential to reduce the risk of adverse outcomes in transfer cesarean section after trial of labor.

Effects of activation of ALDH2 by ethanol in testis injury of type 2 diabetic rats / 中国药理学通报

Aim To observe the effects of activation of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 ( ALDH2 ) by ethanol on testis injury of type 2 diabetic rats. Methods Type 2 diabetic rats model were established by high-fat diet combined with low-dose streptozotocin ( STZ ) injec-tions. After the success of modeling, the rats were ran-domly divided into 3 groups ( n =6 ): normal control group (NC), type 2 diabetes group (T2DM) and eth-anol+type 2 diabetes group (EtOH+T2DM). Rats of EtOH + T2DM were treated with low-dose ethanol, then rats of NC and T2 DM were given normal diet for 8 weeks. After 8 weeks, the levels of the fasting blood glucose ( FBG ) , glycosylated hemoglobin ( HbA1 c ) and testosterone were tested, and the ratio of testis weight to body weight ( TW/BW ) was calculated. Morphological changes of testis tissue were observed by optical microscope. The levels of ALDH2 mRNA and transforming growth factorβ1 ( TGF-β1 ) mRNA in tes-tis tissue were measured. The expression of TGF-β1 in testis tissue was observed by immunohistochemical stai-ning, then the positive rate of TGF-β1 was calculated. Results Compared with NC, the levels of FBG, HbA1 c and TW/BW increased significantly and the level of testosterone decreased significantly in T2DM. The morphological observation showed that some semi-niferous tubules atrophied, spermatogenic cells de-creased and arrangemented loosely, Leydig cells de-creased in testicular interstitial. The level of ALDH2 mRNA in testis tissue decreased significantly, and the level of TGF-β1 mRNA and the positive rate of TGF-β1 in testis tissue increased significantly. However, compared with T2DM, the levels of FBG, HbA1c and TW/BW decreased, and the level of testosterone in-creased and the damage of testis tissue was attenuated in EtOH+T2DM. The level of ALDH2 mRNA in testis tissue increased significantly, and the level TGF-β1 mRNA and the positive rate of TGF-β1 in testis tissue decreased significantly. Conclusion Activating AL-DH2 can protect testis in type 2 diabetic rats, which may be related to the downregulation of TGF-β1 ex-pression.

Primary cultivation and identification of human placental microvascular endothelial cells / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND:Establishment of in vitro culture system of human placental microvascular endothelial cel s with high purity is very important. In recent studies, some scholars have successful y obtained a large number of placental microvascular endothelial cel s by three-stepenzyme digestion and magnetic separation method, but the procedures were extremely complex and it had great damage to the cel s. Therefore, how to separate human placental microvascular endothelial cel s easily and obtain high-purified cel s has become a research hotspot. OBJECTIVE:To investigate an efficient method to isolate and purify human placental microvascular endothelial cel s from early vil us microvessels, observe the cel growth and identify the cel s. METHODS:The vil i from normal early pregnancies (6-8 weeks) after artificial abortion were col ected aseptical y. Using two-step digestion procedure and discontinuous Percol density gradient centrifugation method, human placental microvascular endothelial cel s were obtained. Then the cel s were identified by trypsin digestion method and repeated adherence method. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Human placental microvascular endothelial cel s were isolated successful y from early vil i. The primary cel s adhered to the wal s after inoculated for 24 hours and entered logarithmic phase at 10 days. 80%of the cel s achieved a confluence at 12-13 days after inoculating. The subculture cel s grew swiftly with the typical cobblestone appearance. Immunofluorescence staining showed that, cultured human placental microvascular endothelial cel s demonstrated a strong positive reaction to von Wil ebrand factor antigen and CD31, accounting for 100%. MTT assay results showed that, human placental microvascular endothelial cel s at passage 5 exhibited an S-shaped growth curve. High-purity human placental microvascular endothelial cel s can be obtained by proteolytic enzymes digestion and discontinuous Percol density gradient centrifugation method, and the purity is detected by trypsin digestion method and repeated adherence method.

Prevalence of syphilis during pregnancy and risk factors for maternal and perinatal infections: a 2009-2013 survey / 南方医科大学学报

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the risk factors for maternal and perinatal syphilis infections in Guangzhou.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We collected the data of pregnant women with perinatal syphilis infections from the Obstetrics Critical Care Center, Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University during the period from January, 2009 to April, 2013.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>in the 64 253 pregnant women surveyed, the mean annual incidence of syphilis during pregnancy was 0.255% within the surveyed period. In women with syphilis during pregnancy, those receiving normal anti-syphilis treatment had a significantly lower rate of neonatal serological syphilis positivity and those without treatment (55.81% vs 100%); the serological syphilis positivity rates differed significantly between neonates with parental syphilis infection and those without (54.348% vs 20%). Of the women with syphilis during pregnancy, 82.14% reported syphilis of the spouse, 80.36% were floating population, and 78.57% had previous multiple pregnancies.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The incidence of syphilis during pregnancy shows a linear growth in the 5 past years in Guangzhou. Maternal syphilis during pregnancy without proper anti-syphilis treatment and vertical transmission are the most important risk factors for neonatal syphilis. A syphilis spouse, floating population, and multiple pregnancies all contribute to neonatal syphilis.</p>

The pregnancy outcomes of selective reduction of triplet pregnancy by assisted reproductive technology / 实用医学杂志

Objective To study the outcomes of selective reduction of triplet pregnancy by assisted reproductive technology. Methods The clinical data of 31 women who succeeded in conception by vitro fertilization-embryo transfer in the third affiliated hospital of Guangzhou Medical University were retrospectively investigated to analyze and compare the rates of abortion from triplet pregnancy, twin pregnancy and single pregnancy after selective reduction of triplet pregnancy, the incidence of pregnant complications, outcomes of perinatal period. Results There were no significant differences between triplet pregnancy and the twin and single pregnancy after selective reduction of triplet pregnancy in terms of pregnancy and parity time, fetal disease, premature rupture of membrane, severe eclampsism, gestational diabetes and postpartum hemorrhage (P>0.05). There were significant differences in gestational weeks, birth weight, rate of premature birth, rate of neonatal transfer to NICU and neonatal RDS: The gestational time in the triplet group longer than the groups of twin pregnancy and single pregnancy after selective reduction of triplet pregnancy (P<0.05). (37.3 ± 1.9) vs. (35.2 ± 0.9), (32.6 ± 2.3), respectively), the rate of premature birth dropped (100%vs. 100%, 33.3%, respectively), the body weight was increased (1 707 ± 360.4)g vs. (2 066.1 ± 307.5)g, (2 712.5 ± 514.1)g, respectively and the neonatal complication rate was reduced (P<0.05). Conclusion The selective reduction of multiple pregnancy may decrease the risk of premature birth and reduce the rate of lower body weight of neonates, improving the pregnancy outcomes, but the higher rate of abortion at the early or middle course of pregnancy after selective reduction is worth our attention.

The clinical and pathological features of Alport syndrome in children / 临床儿科杂志

Objective To analyze the clinical and pathological characteristics of Alport syndrome in children. Methods Clinical and pathological information gathered from 62 patients during March 1989 to August 2012 was retrospectively analyzed. Results Four autosomal recessive Alport syndromes (AR-AS) and 58 X-linked Alport syndromes (XL-AS) were analyzed. Of the XL-AS, 47 were boys and 11 were girls. Most of patients induced by upper respiratory tract infections, and onset with hematuria and proteinuria. There was no signiifcant gender difference in family history, impaired renal tubular proteins, hypertension, im-paired renal function, hearing loss, ocular abnormalities or renal pathological changes under light microscopy. However, extensive lamination and split of glomerular basement membrane (GBM) dense layers were found in 83.0%male and 18.2%female patients (P=0.000) and the rest patients were presented with limited distribution of typical GBM changes. Proteinuria progressed signiif-cantly with age in XL-AS males (r=0.501, P=0.000). Five XL-AS patients developed to end stage renal disease (ESRD) between 11 to 16 years old. Conclusions XL-AS is the main inherited type and severe changes of GBM are common in XL-AS males. Proteinuria increases remarkably with age. The detection of type IV collagen in renal tissue or skin is helpful to diagnose Alport syndrome and conifrm inheritance modes.
