The polymorphisms ofESR 1 were involved in recurrent spontaneous abortion （RSA）; however, the association between ESRI polymorphisms and RSA remains controversial. The present meta-analysis was aimed to clarify the association between ESRI Pvull （-397C/T, rs2234693） and Xbal （-351 A/G, rs9340799） polymorphisms and the risk of RSA. Methods： All the included articles were retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang Med Online Database up to January 3,2018. Data were processed in the Stata 12.0 software. The odds ratios （ORs） and 95% confidence intervals （95% Cls） were calculated using fixed-effects models （FEM）/random-effects models （REM）. Results： Seven case-control studies with 836 cases and 1164 controls were included in the study. Generally, the ESR 1 polymorphisms were not associated with RSA in any of the genetic analysis models. However, it was found that as rs9340799 polymorphism was related to increased risk of RSA in non-Asian group in the homozygous genetic model （OR = 2.40, 95% CI = 1.05-5.50, P = 0.039）. Moreover, in Asian group, rs9340799 polymorphism was found to be related to decreased RSA risk in both the heterozygous model （OR = 0.53, 95% CI = 0.33-0.85, P = 0.009） and the dominant genetic model （OR=0.55, 95% CI = 0.30 0.98, P = 0.042）. Conclusions： Generally. there was no significant association between the polymorphisms of ESRI and the risk of RSA. However, subgroup analysis indicated that ESR1 rs9340799 polymorphism was related to increased RSA risk in the non-Asian group while associated with decreased RSA risk in Asian group.展开更多

It is under debate whether this is the evidence on the presence of the BCS–BEC[Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer(BCS), Bose–Einstein condensation(BEC)] crossover in the superconductor. High-resolution laser-based angle-resolved photoemission measurements are carried out on high quality single crystals of FeSe_(0.45)Te_(0.55) superconductor to address the issue. By employing different polarization geometries, we have resolved and isolated the dyz band and the topological surface band, making it possible to study their superconducting behaviors separately. The dyz band alone does not form a flat band-like feature in the superconducting state and the measured dispersion can be well described by the BCS picture. We find that the flat band-like feature is formed from the combination of the dyz band and the topological surface state band in the superconducting state. These results reveal the origin of the flat band-like feature and rule out the presence of BCS-BEC crossover in Fe(Se,Te) superconductor.展开更多
