Objective To reveal the potential different longitudinal motion characteristics and differences of left and right muscular band (L-MB,R-MB)of interventricular septum (IVS) during systole and diastole in normal subjects.Methods Dual Doppler tissue imaging was applied for the longitudinal velocity curves of L-MB and R-MB of anterior and posterior interventricular septum(P-IVS,A-IVS) at basal,mid,and apical levels in eighty-two healthy subjects.Peak isovolumetric contraction (VIVC),systolic (Vs),early(Ve) and late (Va) diastolic velocities were measured,and myocardial velocity gradient(MVG)and Ve/Va ratio of each segment of L-MB and R-MB were calculated.Results ①Peak velocity of MB:the VrvC,Vs,Ve and Va of R-MB of both A-IVS and P-IVS were higher than those of L-MB; the VrvC,Vs,Ve and Va were gradually decreased from the base to apex of both A-IVS and P-IVS;the VIVC and Vs of A-IVS were higher than those of P-IVS; the Ve and Va of A-IVS were lower than those of P-IVS.②Correlation and MVG analyses of peak velocity of MB:the systolic and diastolic velocities between L-MB and R-MB of both A-IVS and P-IVS have shown a very strong positive correlation;the isovolumetric systolic MVG1 of L-MBof A-IVS,systolic MVG1 of R-MB of P-IVS and the diastolic MVG1 of both A-IVS and P-IVS were higher than those of MVG2.Conclusions The heterogeneity of longitudinal peak systolic and diastolic velocity and regional myocardial compliance,the consistency of moving direction and positive correlation of longitudinal peak systolic and diastolic velocity between L-MB and R-MB of both A-IVS and P-IVS have been demonstrated in normal subjects.

Objective To explore the predictive value of plasma catestatin (CST ) and its influence factors for prognosis of patients with chronic systolic heart failure .Methods In a retrospective study ,the clinical data of 352 chronic systolic heart failure patients were collected from our hospital 2009 to 2013 .The patients were categorized into 4 groups (n= 88) according to CST (ng/L) quartile :≤ 60 .24 ,60 .25 - 76 .57 ,76 .58 - 86 .33 and ≥ 86 .34 ng/L .Blood pressure ,heart function ,blood biochemical index and renal function were compared among groups as well as the correlation with CST by Spearman correlation .According to the survival situation of follow‐up ,the patients were assigned into death and survival groups .The predictive value of CST for the prognosis of chronic systolic heart failure patients were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox survival analysis .Results Age ,sex ,body mass index ,red blood cell count ,red blood cell volume ,hemoglobin ,albumin ,total bilirubin ,serum creatinine ,blood urea nitrogen ,u‐ric acid and pathogeny among 4 groups had no statistical significance (P> 0 .05) .Patients with higher CST levels were more likely to had higher NYHA classification ,systolic pressure ,diastolic pressure ,high sensitivity C‐reactive protein (hs‐CRP) ,plasma N‐ter‐minal proBNP (NT‐proBNP ) ,left ventricular end‐diastolic diameter (LVEDD ) and right ventricular end‐diastolic diameter (RVEDD) ,and had a lower left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (all P< 0 .05) .The CST was positively correlated with hs‐CRP ,NT‐proBNP ,LVEDD and RVEDD (r = 0 .452 ,0 .571 ,0 .536 ,0 .473) and negatively correlated with LVEF (r = - 0 .357) . Taken CST ≤ 60 .24 ng/L for reference ,the risks of death for groups of 60 .25 - 76 .57 ,76 .58 - 86 .33 and ≥ 86 .34 ng/L increased by 1 .471 ,1 .767 and 7 .822 ,respectively .The Cox survival analysis showed that NYHA classification ,LVEF ,cardiac arrhythmia , atrial enlargement ,heart failure history and CST were independent prognostic factors .Conclusion The mortality of patients with chronic systolic heart failure was associated with plasma CST .Elevated CST increased total mortality risk and were independent prognostic factors of these patients ,but the evaluation of the prognostic value of CST etiology factors should be considered .

Objective To investigate the current status of nursing information services on the hospital web sites,and provide empirical reference for the development of nursing information services. Methods Seventy three level hospitals were recruited in the study. The famous search engines such as Baidu and Google were used to locate the target hospital web sites. The nursing-related information was recorded and classified. Results Nursing related information could be found on 41(58.6%)hos-pital web sites. The data was not updated timely,and the click frequency was low. The contents were far of abundant and the presentation rates were under 25.0% except the contents of introduction to nursing and nursing news. Conclusions The nurs-ing-related information on the hospital web-sites were insufficient. Nursing administrators should pay close attention to the defi-ciency of nursing information on hospital web-sites and take actions to promote the development of nursing information ser-vices.

Objective To explore and establish the possible method of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound(LIPUS) irradiation directly combined with SonoVue microbubbles could enhance 5-azacytine (Aza) induced cardiomyogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cellin(MSCs)vitro,initially explore the appropriate irradiation condition,and to provide experimental basic data for ultrasound-mediated microbubble destruction application in MSCs transplantation for acute myocardial infarction.Methods (1) In order to screen out the appropriate ultrasound irradiation intensity and time without conspicuous harm to MSCs,stem cells were exposed to different ultrasound intensity irradiation (0.11,0.33,0.55,0.77,0.99 W/cm2) and time (0,30,60,90 s) and then cell proliferation determined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT).In order to screen out the appropriate microbubble-to-cell ratio without conspicuous harm to MSCs,stem cells of different microbubble-to-cell ratios (0,10,50,100,150) were exposed above the screened ultrasound irradiation intensity and time and then cell proliferation determined by MTT.(2) MSCs were divided into four groups and induced cardiomyogenic differentiation by different inducing systems in vitro as follows:no-treatment group,5-Aza inducing group(10 μmol/L),microbubble and ultrasound group,5-Aza inducing (10 μmol/L) with microbubble and ultrasound group,followed by four weeks of further culture.The morphological changes were studied daily under phase-contrast microscope,then the expression of cardiac troponin-T (cTnT) was detected by immunocytochemistry method to analyze and compare differentiation rate of cardiomyocyte-like cells in each group.Results (1)The direct ultrasound irradiation condition of no conspicuous harm to MSCs,but with destruction was intensity of 0.55 W/cm2,exposure time of 30 s and microbubble-to-cell ratio of 50.(2) This study confirmed the feasibility of direct ultrasound exposure of LIPUS on MSCs in vitro.(3) At 28 days after induction,the stem cells of 5-Aza inducing group and 5-Aza inducing with microbubble and ultrasound group expressed cTnT and the positive rate of the latter was higher than the former by immunocytochemistry (13.69％ vs 34.13％,P ＜0.05).Conclusions The appropriate ultrasound direct irradiation condition was intensity of 0.55 W/cm2,exposure time of 30 s and microbubble-to-cell ratio of 50.Appropriate conditions of LIPUS could enhance 5-Aza induced cardiomyogenic differentiation of MSCs in vitro.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of implantation of homologous cancellous and autologous red marrow under endoscope in the treatment of traumatic bone nonunion or bone defect.MethodsTotally 25 patients with traumatic bone nonunion or bone defect were enrolled in this study.The lesion involved the tibia bone in 9 cases,the femur in 13,and the humerus in 3.The grafts were sized 1 to 6 cm in length(mean,2.7 cm).Before the implantation of the cancellous bones,the scar fibrous tissues within the nonunion were removed completely by endoscopy,and then autologous red marrow obtained from the iliac crest was injected.ResultsAll the patients were followed up for 12 to 36 months(mean,25 months).The surgical wounds healed primarily in all of the cases without injuries to the blood vessels and nerves.Bony union was achieved within 4 to 9 months(mean,5.1 months) in 23 of the patients,the other 2 failed because of breaking and loosing of internal fixators.No patient developed re-nonunion and infection.ConclusionsImplantation of homologous cancellous and autologous red marrow under endoscope is effective for traumatic bone nonunion or bone defect with a low rate of complication and high rate of bony union.Since no need to harvest the ilium bone,the method is minimally invasive for the patients.

Objective To study the changes of hematological indices of blood donors after 400ml whole-blood donation.Methods Blood specimens of 123 healthy donors were collected before donation,1 day,7 days,1 month,and 3 months after donation.The dynamic changes of WBC,RBC,hemoglobin,hematocrit,Plt,plasma total protein,albumin and blood serum iron were observed.Results After donation,the changes of WBC,Plt,total protein of blood plasma and albumin showed no significant change.The levels of RBC,hemoglobin,hematocrit and blood serum iron returned to normal after 3 months.Conclusion For anyone who meets the health standard of blood donors,to donate 400ml whole blood at 3-month interval is harmless.

Pulse-taking is the most specific diagnostic method of TCM.Its significance has been recognized by ancient and modern doctors.However,at present the application and spread of pulse-taking is limited.In this paper,the author made detailed explorations of literatures and studies the value of pulse condition in guiding syndrome differentiation of liver diseases.The study shows abnormal pulse in left guan and taut pulse in cunkou location both suggest the liver is disordered.We can judge the location of diseases through pulse condition.This exploration shows pulse-taking plays important role in syndrome differentiation.But there is one thing should be paid more attention,pulse condition should be integrated with other symptoms,that will be reliable in guiding diagnosis.

Objective To discuss the application of sperm mobility parameters in semen quality analysis. Methods The semen samples from 2343 outpatient males were examinated following theWorld Health Organization (WHO) guide, and sperm mobility parameters were also evaluated.Results There are significant difference of all sperm mobility parameters between normal and unnormal semen groups. As spermatozoa vialibity reduced, VCL、VSL、VAP、MAD、ALH、STR had decreased and BCF had increased significantly. Compared with the group which spermatozoa density and activity were both normal, LIN、STR had reduced and MAD、BCF had increased in the small quantity sperm group. All parameters were significant difference besides ALH in the lower sperm activity group. And for that in the group which spermatozoa density and activity were both unnormal, only MAD and ALH were no significant difference. Conlusion Sperm mobility parameters may serve as key parameters of semen quality analysis and play an important role in evaluating the ability of male fertility.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of percutaneous microwave coagulation therapy(PMCT) combined with 125I seeds implantation for the treatment of advanced lung cancer.Methods CT-guided PMCT and implantation of 125I seeds were applied to 22 cases of NSCLC,including 15 cases of squamous carcinoma and 7 cases of adenocarcinoma.The maximum diameter of the lesions ranged from 5-12 cm.The part of focuses situated at thoracic wall or surrounding the large vessels and airways was treated with 125I seed implantation,and the other parts were treated with PMCT. Results In all the patients,PMCT was done in one session with multipoint ablation,and an average of 32.4 particles of 125I seeds were implanted for each of the focuses(712 particles in total).The main postoperative complications included slight hemoptysis(7 cases),pneumothorax(4 cases),fever(17) and lung inflammation(11) after PMCT,chest fluid(6),and dislocation of the particles(2).15 cases achieved PR,5 cases were SD,and 2 cases were PD in 2 months after the operation shown by CT.The effective rate(CR + PR) was 68.2%(15/22).The chest pain was relieved in 15 patients,and improved in 4.22 of the cases were followed up for 4 to 18 months(mean 7 months).No enlargement of the chest lesion was detected during the period. Conclusions For the advanced NSCLC sized ≥ 5 cm in diameter,PMCT combined with 125I seeds implantation is safe,minimally invasive,and effective.
