MRI在剖宫产术后瘢痕妊娠诊疗路径中的应用价值

摘要 目的：探讨磁共振成像在剖宫产术后瘢痕妊娠（cesarean scar pregnancy,CSP）诊疗路径中的应用价值。方法：回顾性分析24例经手术和（或）病理证实为瘢痕妊娠的孕妇临床和影像检查资料,记录MRI上妊娠囊位置、大小、T1、T2信号强度、妊娠囊类型、妊娠囊与子宫前壁下段肌层及膀胱的关系,分析MR特征对临床诊疗路径的应用价值。结果：24例妊娠囊均位于子宫下段,为圆形或卵圆形,11例妊娠囊为单纯囊性,12例妊娠囊为混杂包块型,1例因清宫术后行MR,未见明确妊娠囊,仅见子宫下段混杂信号。10例妊娠囊附着处子宫肌厚度不可测量,余14例妊娠囊附着处子宫肌厚度约0.9～5.0 mm,平均2.5±1.1 mm。据此,CSP分型为I型5例,II型7例,III型12例。结论：MRI能较好的评估CSP, 在CSP诊疗路径中的应用价值较大。

Subcellular distribution of selenium during uptake and its influence on mitochondrial oxidations in germinatingVigna radiata L

The metabolic significance of Se in plants is not well documented, though the presence of many selenoenzymes in bacteria and the essentiality of Se in higher animals is established. Since germination is an active process in plant growth and metabolism, the effect of Se was investigated in germinatingVigna radiata L, a nonaccumulating Sedeficient legume. Growth and protein were enhanced in seedlings supplemented with selenium (Se) as sodium selenite in the medium up to 1 μg/mL. The pattern of uptake of⁷⁵Se in the differentiating tissues and the subcellular distribution were investigated. The percentage of incorporation of⁷⁵Se was greater in the mitochondria at the lowest level (0.5 μg/mL) of Se supplementation compared to higher levels of Se exposure. Proteins precipitated from the postmitochondrial supernatant fractions, when separated by means of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), indicated a major selenoprotein in the seedlings germinated at 2.0 μg/mL Se. In seedlings grown with supplemented Se, enhanced respiratory control ratio and succinate dehydrogenase activity were observed in the mitochondria of tissues, indicative of a role for Se in mitochondrial membrane functions.     

不同环境下家蚕产量构成因素的通径分析及育种对策的探讨

利用52个家蚕品种在春秋两个季节的试验资料,对万头茧层量及其构成因素作了通径分析。结果表明:不同环境下,诸因素对万头茧层量的作用不完全相同,主要表现为幼虫生命率和茧层率在不同季节中的作用相对地变化。结合育种实践指出:(1)春用蚕品种的选育应在保证生命率的前提下努力提高茧层率和全茧量,而夏秋用品种的选育应在保证茧层率的前提下努力提高生命率和全茧量。 (2)为提高选择效果,春蚕期育种应以选择茧层率为主,夏秋期育种应以选择生命率为主。     

Determinants of postnatal weight in infant rhesus monkeys: Implications for the study of interindividual differences in neonatal growth

This paper provides an analysis of infant body weights obtained from a sample of 38 rhesus monkey infants (Macaco mulatta) aged 29–165 days, i.e., animals still nutritionally dependent on their mothers. We examine the data on neonatal weights in relation to a number of factors, most notably, the sex of the infants, and the age and adiposity of their mothers. The infant body weights represent cross-sectional rather than longitudinal data; because they were mostly free-ranging animals, the infants were weighed just once each. Nevertheless, the results of our analysis strongly suggest that early postnatal growth in free-ranging rhesus is dependent on both maternal fatness and age. They also suggest that, although male infants are generally heavier than like-aged female infants, they do not grow any faster during the early postnatal period. Here, we speculate that the associations between infant size and both maternal age and adiposity are the result of between-mother differences in lactational output. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

REPRODUCTION IN THE FEMALE SUBANTARCTIC FUR SEAL, ARCTOCEPHALUS TROPICALIS

The reproductive tracts of 89 female subantarctic fur seals, taken at Gough Island between November 1977 and October 1978, were examined. Females started ovulating at age 4 yr and all 6-yr-old females were sexually mature. They are mono-ovulatory, alternating between ovaries, and only single embryos were found. Females older than 13 yr ( n = 11) showed poor follicular development and some failed to ovulate. The gestation period (first recorded ovulation to first recorded birth) was 360 d, while delayed implantation (first recorded ovulation to first recorded implantation) lasted for 139 days. Follicle numbers in the functional ovary declined sharply after ovulation while the corpus luteum increased in size until at least 1 mo prior to parturition. The number of follicles in the contralateral ovary increased after midwinter (June/July), and the mean size of the largest follicles peaked prior to ovulation in December. The mean size of the largest follicles increased in both ovaries near implantation time, after reaching a low subsequent to, ovulation. The regressing corpus albicans, conspicuous for approximately 3 mo after parturition, could not be detected macroscopically within one year postpartum. Subantarctic fur seals at Gough Island have a distinct postreproductive class of older females. The pregnancy rate for all females ≥4 yr of age was 79%, and it was 84.5% for the sexually mature group of ≥6 yr of age, while the mean age at puberty was 4.80 yr.     

Muscle determinants in the ascidian egg are inactivated by UV irradiation and the inactivation is partially rescued by injection of maternal mRNAs

The ascidian egg contains cytoplasmic determinants that specify the fate of larval muscle cells. In a previous study, we developed an experimental system to identify the molecular nature of muscle determinants, in which unfertilized Ciona savignyi eggs were fragmented into four pieces by centrifugation. When inseminated, only nucleated fragments (red fragments) develop into partial embryos that only show differentiation of epidermal cells. One type of enucleated fragment (black fragment) has the remarkable ability to promote muscle differentiation when fused with red fragments. In the present study, using this experimental system, we investigated the molecular nature of muscle determinants. UV irradiation of black fragments suppressed the ability to promote expression of the muscle-specific protein, myosin heavy chain. The wavelength of UV light responsible for the inactivation (250–275 nm) suggested that UV-sensitive targets are nucleic acids. Injection of poly(A)⁺ RNA isolated from an un-irradiated black-fragment-rich fraction into UV-irradiated black fragments partially recovered the ability to promote the expression of myosin heavy chain protein. Poly(A)⁺ RNA from a red-fragment-rich fraction did not rescue the suppression of UV-irradiated black fragments. These results suggest that maternal mRNAs enriched in black fragments are closely associated with muscle determinants in the ascidian egg.     

Coprecipitating IgG asymmetric antibodies: A possible role for Fab glycosylation,and speculations on their formation and functions in disease

IgG asymmetric antibodies are synthesized by the same cellular clones as the symmetric ones but appear in the immune response in different proportions. The evidence suggests that they are caused by asymmetric glycosylation on some IgG molecules in the Fab region. The cause of this is unknown but it could be speculated that there are cellular factors that induce glycosyl transferases or cause the molecule to be more accessible to glycosylation. The production of asymmetric antibodies can be modified by the physical status (soluble or particulate) of the antigen used as immunogen by the number and frequency of stimulation, and by physiological factors such as the ones secreted by the placenta and by lymphocytes that express progesterone receptors in response to hormone. An increase of these antibodies can be beneficial or harmful to the host, depending on the situation in which they act and the character of self or non-self of the antigens recognized. Editors note—Many of the ideas proposed in this article are very speculative, but it was thought appropriate to publish it in order to stimulate further discussion of the subject. It is an interesting role for Fab glycosylation that is proposed by Professor Margni. The ideas discussed are not necessarily those held by the Editorial Board or the reviewers, who felt that the evidence for many of the deductions made was very limited. It was also emphasized by the reviewers that the author's case would be substantially improved if more corroborative evidence was available from other groups. The Editors would welcome any comments on the subject for publication in future issues of the journal.
