血管内皮生长因子与妊娠高血压综合征发病的关系

目的　探讨血管内皮生长因子 (VEGF)在妊娠高血压综合征发病中的作用。方法　分别采用酶联免疫吸附试验检测 40例妊高征孕妇的血清VEGF水平 ,免疫组化检测胎盘及蜕膜组织VEGF及CD3 4表达情况 ,35例正常孕妇作对照。结果　①妊高征组孕妇的外周血VEGF水平及胎盘组织MVD明显低于正常妊娠组 (P <0 0 5 ) ;②两组胎盘绒毛滋养叶细胞和蜕膜组织中均有VEGF阳性表达 ,胎盘组织强阳性表达高于蜕膜。与对照组比较 ,其胎盘组织VEGF强阳性表达的轻度妊高征无显著性差异 ;而中度和重度妊高征与对照组相比 ,则明显降低 ,差异显著 (P <0 0 5 )。各组孕妇蜕膜组织中VEGF的表达强度和差异无显著性。③孕妇外周血VEGF水平与新生儿出生体重 (r =0 2 9,P <0 0 5 )和胎盘重量 (r =0 34,P <0 0 1)均存在直线正相关关系。结论　妊高征患者血清VEGF水平和胎盘组织MVD降低 ,胎盘组织VEGF表达明显下降 ,都可能在妊高征的发病中起一定的作用。

Concurrent oral and genital infection with HPV DNA types 6 and 11 in a heterosexual male

Objective Detection of HPV DNA in oral and genital lesions of a heterosexual male. 4 months after oral and vaginal intercourse with a woman with vulvar warts. Passible modes of acquisition of oral HPV infection in the male sexual partner are discussed. Setting Genitourinary Medicine clinic. Methods Polymerase chain reaction amplification of genomic DNA from oral and genital lesions. HPV DNA typing by dot blot hybridization. Results HPV DNA types 6 and 11 were identified in a polypoid tongue lesion and in a penile wart from the male sexual partner. Conclusions The acquisition of oral HPV infection in the male sexual partner may have resulted from genital-oral HPV transfer, either by direct contact with vulvar warts or by digital self-inoculation.     

预移植在胚胎移植中的意义

目的 :评价预移植在胚胎移植中的作用。　方法 :在超声波引导下胚胎移植 114个周期 ,其中 10 1个周期进行预移植。比较预移植与未预移植周期临床妊娠率和胚胎种植率 ;按预移植与实际胚胎放置深度差值分组 ,并比较两组妊娠率和胚胎种植率。　结果 :预移植周期与未预移植周期临床妊娠率和种植率统计学差异无显著性(5 9.4 1%和 6 1.5 4 % ,35 .81%和 31.4 3% ,P均 >0 .0 5 ) ;按预移植与实际胚胎放置深度差值分组后 ,两组妊娠率和种植率统计学差异也无显著性 (6 1.5 4 %和 5 8.6 7% ,4 0 .79%和 34.0 9% ,P均 >0 .0 5 )。　结论 :在胚胎移植技术中 ,预移植不能准确指引胚胎移植深度     

Oral mifepristone 600 mg and vaginal gemeprost for mid-trimester induction of abortion: An open multicenter study

This open multicenter study was performed in 20 hospital gynecological units in the UK. The effects of 600 mg oral mifepristone as pretreatment to vaginal prostaglandin induction of second second trimester abortion was studied in 267 women.

The primary efficacy variable was the abortion induction interval, defined as the time taken to expel the fetus from the time of administration of the first prostaglandin pessary. Induction was commenced 36 to 48 hours following mifepristone intake.

The mean abortion induction interval was 7 h. A total of 81.9% of women aborted within 12 h. There was a significant relationship between abortion induction interval and age of gestation, and a significant inverse relationship between abortion induction interval and parity.

Vomiting, pelvic pain, and nausea were the most frequently reported adverse events. Two patients required transfusion and one patient with a uterine scar from a previous cesarean section suffered a ruptured uterus and hysterotomy.     

Screening and treatment of bacteriuria in pregnancy and postpartum period

The paper gives an overview of today's knowledge of urinary tract infection in pregnancy and different treatment procedures. Three different studies of urinary tract infection (UTI) in pregnancy and the postpartum period are reported. Urinary screening of 1798 pregnant women showed a cumulative frequency of bacteriuria of 4.8%, recurrent infection in one-fifth of the cases, and pyelonephritis in 0.6%. Chlamydial infection was observed as a cause of dysuria in pregnancy. In the postpartum period bladder bacteriuria was demonstrated in 3.7%. The condition persisted in 27%, while short-course treatment had significant effect.Presented at the Zambon Symposium on Bacteriuria in Pregnancy, International Urogynecological Association Annual Meeting, Riva del Garda, Italy, September 13, 1989.     

Interaction of Heparin With Antiphospholipid Antibodies (APA) From the Sera of Women With Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL)

PROBLEM: To determine if heparin may act directly with antiphospholipid antibodies (APA) to prevent recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). METHOD: Patients were seen at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. Twenty women with a history of RPL (≥3 miscarriages), positive APA, and an otherwise normal evaluation were treated with heparin in two daily subcutaneous dosages during a successful pregnancy. APA levels were obtained prior to conception and again at 6, 20, and 30 weeks. RESULTS: Heparin reduced APA binding to cardiolipin and phosphatidylserine in a dose-dependent fashion in ELISA. Heparin affinity chromatography absorbed over 80% of the IgG anticardiolipin antibody in serum from women with high levels of APA. Women treated with increasing dosages of heparin during pregnancy had inversely decreasing levels of IgG anticardiolipin antibody. CONCLUSION: Heparin may act by directly binding APA in vivo, thereby decreasing the adverse effects of APA in women with APA associated RPL.     

Successful triplet pregnancy in a patient with a unicornuate uterus with a cavitary communicating rudimentary horn

In a patient with primary infertility, ovulation was inducedby monitored stimulation with human menopausal gonadotrophins(HMG) because of polycystic ovarian disease. Infertility work-uphad shown a unicornuate uterus with a cavitary communicatingrudimentary horn. The husband showed a varicocele-related moderateoligoasthenoterato-zoospermia. A triplet pregnancy occurredin a third HMG ovulation induction cycle combined with intra-uterineinsemination of the husband's washed semen. The pregnancy wascarefully monitored, and measures to prevent premature deliverywere taken. Because of the patient's obvious discomfort in thepresence of premature labour, Caesarean section was performedat 33 weeks gestation and three healthy infants were delivered.This is the first report of a successful triplet pregnancy ina women with a unicornuate uterus. The reproductive and obstetricoutcome of this condition in general, and in the case of multiplepregnancy, is discussed.     

The biomechanics of vibration and low back pain

This work is a review of the mechanical factors related to low back pain production in a vibration environment. The sitting posture is an extreme orientation for the lumbar intervertebral disc that 1) increases its internal pressure, 2) increases its anteroposterior shear flexibility, while: 3) decreasing its resistance to buckling instability and 4) stressing the posterior region of the disc. Vibration is an additional mechanical stressor. Several studies suggest that the following preventive measures be taken to reduce the risk of low back pain due to driving: 1) minimize the vibration reaching the driver, 2) avoid lifting or bending immediately following driving, and 3) walk around for a few minutes following driving. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
