Methods Male SD rats were given monocrotaline 60 mg/kg by a single intraperitoneal injection ,the mRNA expression of RV/BW , RVHI and ANF were took as the indicators .Intraperitoneal injection with 10% chloral hydrate was performed ,the artery cannulae and right ventricular catheter were inserted ,and the right ventricle pressure was measured .Results The RVHI and RV/BW were significantly increased in M2W and M4W groups ,compared with vehicle control (P<0 .01) ,and the ANF mRNA expression was significantly increased in both groups .Bp and HR did not change in model groups .RVEDP markedly decreased (P< 0 .01) and RVP ,± dp/dtmax ,t dp/dtmax and Vpm increased (P<0 .001) in M2W groups ;and all parameters increased significantly in M4W groups (P<0 .01) .Conclusion Monocrotaline can induce RVH ,which accompany hemodynamic changes and the systolic and dias‐tolic dysfunction in right ventricle may eventually cause right heart failure .

Objective: To investigate the regulatory effect of C-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signal transduction pathway on multi-resistance in the human hepatic cancer Bel-7402/5-fluorouracil (FU) cells, and provide a possible novel target for study on the mechanism of multidrug-resistance in human hepatic cancer cells. Methods: The protein expression levels of JNK and phospho-JNK (p-JNK) in parental human hepatic cancer Bel-7402 cells and the drug-resistant Bel-7402/FU cells were detected by Western blotting. After the inhibition of JNK pathway induced by specific inhibitior SP600125, the expressions of multi-drug resistance 1 (MDR1) mRNA and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in Bel-7402/FU cells were detected by RT-PCR and immunocytochemistry, respectively. The accumulation and efflux of rhodanmine 123 (Rh123) in the cells were examined by flow cytometry, and the sensitivity to 5-FU of Bel-7402/FU cells was detected by MTT method. Results: The expression of JNK protein was not significantly different between the Bel-7402/FU cells and the parental Bel-7402 cells, but the expression of p-JNK protein in the Bel-7402/FU cells was significantly increased. After inhibition of JNK pathway, the expressions of MDR1 mRNA and P-gp protein were obviously decreased, with a markedly increased accumulation and decreased efflux of Rh123, leading to enhhanced sensitivity to 5-FU of Bel-7402/FU cells. Conclusion: JNK signal transduction pathway is involved in the expressions of MDR1 gene and P-gp in drug-resistant human hepatic cancer Bel-7402/FU cells, and it can regulate the sensitivity to 5-FU of Bel-7402/FU cells.

DNA methylation is part of the epigenetic modification process,which can lead to aberrant gene expression. Cytochrome P450 enzyme,cyclooxygenase,lipoxygenase and monoamine oxidase are a class of enzymes produced by human tissues,which are involved in the oxidization pro?cess of endogenous and exogenous chemicals. The methylation patterns of these enzyme genes are dif?ferent between normal tissues and pathological ones. Abnormal methylation patterns will change en?zymes′expression and function,and affect the occurrence and development of diseases. This paper re?viewed the characteristic changes of four oxidative metabolic enzyme genes in certain diseased tis?sues,the impact on methylation status of the metabolic activity of chemicals and on human health. It is hoped that this review can provide a new theoretical basis for the study on the toxic mechanism of chemicals and for diagnosis of diseases.

Objective To observe the efficiency of clopidogrel combined with emergency corona interventional therapy for non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction.Methods A total of 112 patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction who were admitted in our hospital from February 2004 to November 2007 were divided into 2 groups at random with 56 patients in each,the experimental group and the control group.All patients were treated with emergency corona interventional therapy and the other routine standard therapies.The experimental group was treated with clopidogrel(75 mg,once per day for 8 weeks),and the control group administered ticlopidine(250 mg,twice per day for 8 weeks).The two group were followed up for a time of half a year.Results The TIMI(thrombolysis in myocardial infarction) myocardial-perfusion grade 3 angiographic flow was achieved in 91.1% of the experimental group,higher than that of the control group(87.5%),but there was no significant difference between them.What's more,there was no obvious difference between the 2 group in cardiac functional grading and life-threatening bleeding.The experimental group had significantly lesser hyporrhea,and lower platelet degradation and total white blood cells counts in comparison to the control group.After the followed-up of half a year,there was significant difference between them in combination-end point.Conclusion Addition of clopidogrel is effective in emergency corona interventional therapy for non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction,which can degrade the risk of emergency corona interventional therapy.

Objective To design and formulate a electronic preoperative preparation checklist for applying in the preoperative preparation,to reduce missing rate in preoperative preparation and transfer,to improve patient satisfaction,to avoid operation delay and medical accident caused by inappropriate preparation.Methods A total of 145 patients with surgery from March 2013 to February 2013 were as experimental group,and 158 patients with surgery from March 2012 to February 2012 were as control group.The experimental group was used electronic preoperative preparation checklist for preoperative preparation and transition,and the control group was used conventional methods.The incidence of mistake for preoperative preparation and transfer and both surgeon's and patient's satisfactory were compared between two groups.Results After applying the electronic preoperative preparation checklist,the incidence of mistake for preoperative preparation and transfer in experimental group reduced significandy to 1.37％(2/145) and 4.83％ (7/145),compared with the incidence of control group 6.33％(10/158),11.39％(18/158),and the differences between two groups were statistically different (x2=4.870,4.305,P ＜ 0.05).Both surgeon's and patient's satisfactory were improved dramatically,the satisfactory in experimental group improved to 100.00％(50/50)and 97.93％(142/145),compared with the satisfactory of control group 90.00％(45/50) and 90.51％(143/158),and the differences between two groups were statistically different(x2=5.263,7.459,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Implementing the electronic preoperative preparation checklist can reduce the incidence of mistake before operation and ensure patient operation schedule.Therefore,it could improve nursing care quality and efficiency.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) in pa?tients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and investigate correlative factors of RBD. Methods Sixty-three consecutive PD pa?tients were included and classified into PD+RBD group (n=28) and PD-RBD group (n=35) according to REM Sleep Be?havior Disorder Questionnaire (RBDQ-HK). The degree of motor symptoms was compared using Unified Parkinson Dis?ease Rating Scale (UPDRS) and Hoehn&Yahr (H-Y) grade, the incidence of non motor symptoms was compared using non motor symptoms questionnaire (NMSquest), and the cognitive function, anxiety, depression, daytime sleep were com?pared using Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Epworth Sleep Scale (ESS) between the two groups. Results The incidence of RBD in PD patients was 44.4% (28/63). There were longer illness course ( χ2=12.733, P=0.002), older age (t=-2.292, P=0.025), and higher H-Y grades (χ2=7.014, P=0.008) in PD+RBD group, compared with those in PD-RBD group, but there were no significant differences in sex, onset age, onset form and levodapa dose equivalents (LDE) between the two groups. There were higher UPDRSⅡ,Ⅲ scores (t=-2.734, P=0.008; U=3.329, P=0.001) in PD+RBD group. Most of the non motor symptoms, including the gastrointestinal dysfunctions, psychiatric comorbidity and sleep disturbances were more frequent in PD+RBD group (P<0.05), and the incidence of anxiety and depression were higher (χ2=3.958, P=0.047; χ2=10.338, P=0.001), whereas there were no significant differences in cognitive function and daytime sleep between the two groups. In addition, constipation (OR=7.257), illness course (OR=5.389), UPDRS Ⅲ scores (OR=1.060) were correlative with RBD in PD patients. Con?clusion PD patients with longer illness course, older ages, and severe motor and non motor symptoms more likely suffer from RBD. Besides, constipation, long illness course and high UPDRSⅢscores may be risk factors of RBD.
