The association between alpha-fetoprotein and βhcg levels prior to and following chorionic villus sampling in cases that spontaneously miscarried

Maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (βhCG) measurements taken prior to chorionic villus sampling (CVS) in 21 patients who subsequently miscarried were compared with measurements in a control group of 113 patients with uneventful pregnancies. Patients with AFP levels of 10 iu/ml or more prior to the CVS had a 4·3 times greater risk of miscarriage (95 per cent confidence interval 1·3–13·6). AFP levels obtained 1 week after the CVS in the 13 patients with late miscarriages were higher than in the control group (P = 0·06). Patients miscarrying had a greater rise in AFP (P = 0·06) and a greater fall in βhCG levels (P = 0·04) following the CVS procedure, compared with the control subjects. Each 10-unit change in the difference between AFP or βhCG levels prior to and 1 week following the CVS was associated with a significantly increased risk for late miscarriage. Elevated maternal serum AFP levels early in pregnancy and changes in AFP and βhCG levels following CVS may predict an increased risk for subsequent miscarriage.     

Use of the chemical cleavage of mismatch method for prenatal deficiency diagnosis of alpha-1-antitrypsin

The most common mutation in alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency, conversion of a G to an A at base 9989 (PI-Z), was detected with the chemical cleavage of mismatch method, demonstrating the power of the method for prenatal diagnosis. Exon V of the gene was amplified using the polymerase chain reaction and heteroduplexes were formed to test for the presence of the mutation. The predicted C mismatch was readily detectable with hydroxylamine, and by making the probe from the chorionic villus sample it was possible to determine that the fetus was heterozygous, not homozygous, for the mutation.     

旅游消费生态占用初探——以北京市海外入境旅游者为例

论文分析了旅游消费生态占用基本构成,提出了旅游消费生态占用计量模型。以北京市海外旅游者为例,对旅游消费生态占用作了初步探讨。结果表明,北京市海外旅游者每次来京旅行人均生态占用为0.09587km₂,约占北京市现有城镇居民年人均生态占用的5%。因此,旅游消费生态占用对区域生态占用有着不可忽视的影响,是区域生态赤字扩大的重要诱因。进一步分析表明旅游消费生态占用结构组成中,“行”的能量生态占用在总旅游消费生态占用中居绝对主导地位,约占98%,而“吃”、“住”的能量生态占用约占2%。     

假单胞菌的氯儿茶酚1,2-双加氧酶基因的克隆和表达

 从土壤中分离得到1株降解2,4-二氯酚(2,4-DCP)能力较强的细菌菌株GT241-1,克隆了该菌株的3,5-二氯儿茶酚1,2-双加氧酶基因(dcpB),采用的克隆策略为:用Southern杂交对dcpB进行定位后,构建重组质粒,再用斑点杂交从重组质粒中筛选目的转化子.经序列测定得知dcpB亚克隆片段全长4303bp,其中dcpB基因编码区765bp.核苷酸和推测的氨基酸序列分析表明,dcpB与已在GenBank登记的相关基因有一定的差异.dcpB基因能够在大肠杆菌转化子中成功地表达有生物活性的酶.     

论高等学校班主任和辅导员工作的定位

本文强调工作定位的重要性,对高等学校班主任和辅导员等学生工作者的定位进行了分析,指出:高等学校的班主任和辅导员既是第一线的教师,又是第一线的管理干部,是集"高校教师"和"高校管理干部"双重身份于一体的教育工作者,思想政治工作者,大学生日常行为的管理者,大学生成才与发展的服务者。     

3种重金属对青萍毒害的研究

对水体中主要的3种重金属(铜、镉、铅)对青萍抗氧化酶系统的几种酶,包括过氧化物酶(POD)、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)的活性,丙二醛(MDA)的含量,可溶性蛋白含量及叶绿体色素含量等指标的影响进行了研究.研究表明青萍对镉污染反应最为敏感,对铜的反应相对缓和一些;青萍在铅的胁迫下表现出无序的状态.因此,青萍不适合应用于重金属镉污染的富营养化水体的治理和生态修复中.

兰州市交通要道颗粒物污染状况及其致突变活性的研究

采用现场监测，色－质联用分析以及小鼠骨髓微核试验方法，评价了兰州市交通要道颗粒物的污染状况，分析了颗粒提取物（PE）的有机组成及致突变活性。结果表明，兰州市总悬浮颗粒物（TSP）污染严重。颗粒提取物中含有近100种有机化合物，其中包括致癌性多环芳烃。微核试验显示PE具有致突变活性，对人群健康的影响不容忽视。
