<p><strong>Objective: </strong>In this paper, we analyzed retrospectively 186 cases of postpartum hemorrhage in our hospital, and analyzed the characteristics and clinical analysis of postpartum hemorrhage in cesarean section. <strong>Method: </strong>Pregnant women were selected from March 2010 to March 2014 in our hospital. The causes of postpartum hemorrhage and postpartum hemorrhage were compared with natural labor and cesarean section. <strong>Results</strong><strong>: </strong>In 4622 pregnant women, 2631 cases are cesarean section while 1991 cases are vaginal delivery. There were 268 cases of postpartum hemorrhage, including 82 cases of postpartum vaginal bleeding, 186 cases of postpartum hemorrhage after cesarean section. The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage was 7.07%, and the rate vaginal birth postpartum hemorrhage was 4.11%, and there was significant difference between them (<em>p</em> &lt; 0.01). Uterine inertia is two kinds of mode of delivery to the main causes of postpartum hemorrhage, followed by rupture of the soft birth canal and placental factors etc. <strong>Conclusion: </strong>Cesarean section is the cause of postpartum hemorrhage. It was found that pregnant women postpartum hemorrhage should actively take treatment to ensure the safety of pregnant women in perinatal period.</p><p> </p><p> </p>

The accuracy with which the attachment site of immunolabels bound to macromolecules may be localized in electron microscopic images can be considerably improved by using single particle averaging. The example studied in this work showed that the accuracy may be better than the resolution limit imposed by negative staining (∽2nm).The structure used for this demonstration was a halfmolecule of Limulus polyphemus (LP) hemocyanin, consisting of 24 subunits grouped into four hexamers. The top view of this structure was previously studied by image averaging and correspondence analysis. It was found to vary according to the flip or flop position of the molecule, and to the stain imbalance between diagonally opposed hexamers (“rocking effect”). These findings have recently been incorporated into a model of the full 8 × 6 molecule.LP hemocyanin contains eight different polypeptides, and antibodies specific for one, LP II, were used. Uranyl acetate was used as stain. A total of 58 molecule images (29 unlabelled, 29 labelled with antl-LPII Fab) showing the top view were digitized in the microdensitometer with a sampling distance of 50μ corresponding to 6.25nm.

<p>Functional integration of proteins with carbon-based nanomaterials such as nanotubes holds great promise in emerging electronic and optoelectronic applications. Control over protein attachment poses a major challenge for consistent and useful device fabrication, especially when utilizing single/few molecule properties. Here, we exploit genetically encoded phenyl azide photochemistry to define the direct covalent attachment of three different proteins, including the fluorescent protein GFP, to carbon nanotube side walls. Single molecule fluorescence revealed that on attachment to SWCNTs GFP’s fluorescence changed in terms of intensity and improved resistance to photobleaching; essentially GFP is fluorescent for much longer on attachment. The site of attachment proved important in terms of electronic impact on GFP function, with the attachment site furthest from the functional center having the larger effect on fluorescence. Our approach provides a versatile and general method for generating intimate protein-CNT hybrid bioconjugates. It can be potentially applied easily to any protein of choice; attachment position and thus interface characteristics with the CNT can easily be changed by simply placing the phenyl azide chemistry at different residues by gene mutagenesis. Thus, our approach will allow consistent construction and modulate functional coupling through changing the protein attachment position.</p>

Background: Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) remains a significant contributor to maternal morbility and mortality and accounts for 31% of maternal death in Vietnam. The most common cause of PPH is uterine atony. Recently, uterine tamponade using intrauterine condom appears to be an effective tool in the management of intractable PPH. Objectives: To evaluate the success of condom as a tamponade to arrest intractable PPH due to uterine atony in patients not responding to medical management. Materials and Methods: The study was designed as a cross-sectional and descriptive, included 32 patients who underwent condom balloon tamponade at Kontum Provincial Hospital from 1/2012 to 8/2016. Results: 32 women (mean age 25.71 ± 6.45 years range, 16 - 39) underwent condom balloon tamponade for PPH controls. 29 patients (90.62%) successfully responded the tamponade therapy by the use of condom catheter. Three patients (9.37%) required hysterectomy. Conclusions: Condom catheter balloon effectively controls the intractable PPH due to uterine atony. Key words: PPH (Pospartum hemorrhage), Tamponade, Condom catheter balloon, Uterine atony
