ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of r egional wall motion abnormality(RWMA) on cardiac anatomic structure with coronary artery disease (CAD) and to recognize serious degree of the disease by echocardiography. MethodsA total of 125 cases was observed. There were 63 patients in CAD group (41 cases with general CAD,7 cases with acute myocardial infarction and 15 cases with old myocardial infarction). All the patients had undergone respectively CABG,PTCA and stent,coronary angiography or radionuclide scan for confirmation. There were 62 cases in normal control group. Using 2D echocardiography,stand short and long axis images of left ventricle(LV) were chosen. Displayed RWMA to compose the centripetal disharmonized motion with whole-wall of LV,and the discentripetal contradiction motion. M mode for continuous scan was to detect the typical characterisitic of RWMA. ResultsSingle-occurring RWMA from 43 cases ( 68.2 %) in 63 cases with CAD was displayed, while multiple-occurring RWMA from another 20 cases ( 31.8 %) was displayed(P

Retinal neovascularization is a complicated pathophysiological process as a result of imbalance between angiogenic and anti-angiogenic factors. Correct understanding of the signaling pathways,exploring the critical factors involved in retinal angiogenesis, looking for new strategies by reconstructing the new vessels are helpful for knowing the mechanism of the occurrence and development of reitnal neovascularization, which would be good for preventing and treating retinal neovascularization diseases.

Objective To investigate the resistance rate of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) to clarithromycin and its correlation with point mutations in 23S rRNA gene. Methods Hp was cultured from gastric biopsy specimen obtained from 189 patients undergoing upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. The DNA of 11 clarithromycin sensitive Hp and 19 clarithromycin resistant Hp was extracted, and 23S rRNA was amplified and sequenced. Results The rate of clarithromycin resistance in cultured Hp was 29. 2%. Point mutations in 23S rRNA gene were found in 17 clarithromycin resistant Hp strains. The proportion of A to G mutation was 36.8%, G to A of 21.5%, C to T of 15.8%, A to C of 10.5% and T to C of 5.3%. No point mutation in 23S rRNA was detected in other 2 clarithromycin resistant and 11 sensitive Hp strains. Conclusion The resistance to clarithromycin is common in Hp, and point mutations in 23S rRNA gene of Hp are frequent in clarithromycin resistant strains, with most prevalent mutations of A to G and next G to A.

One imported endemic of schistosomiasis occurred in historical non-endemic area in Shayang County in 2006.Through the comprehensive control measures of surveillance,control of infectious sources and health education,the endemic was controlled effectively.

Objective To explore the effect of the association of low molecular heparin and Galectin-3 on the cell migration and cell proliferation of vascular endothelial cell from mesenchymal stem cells.Methods Depending on the administration, this study was divided into four groups: low molecular weight heparin group, adding 20 mg/L low molecular weight heparin into the cells;Galectin-3 group, adding 5 mg/L Galectin-3 into the cells;combination group, adding 20 mg/L low molecular weight heparin and 5 μg/ml of Galectin-3 into the cells;control group, equal volume of PBS buffer into the cells.The proliferation of vascular endothelial cell was to be detected by EdU incorporation,the cell growth cycle of vascular endothelial cell was to be detected by flow cytometry,and the cell migration of vascular endothelial cell was to be detected by scrath test.Then to investigate the effect of different conditions on the migration and proliferation of vascular endothelial cell.Results The OD490 of MWH group, Galectin-3 group, combined group and control group were (0.285±0.018), (0.297±0.041), (0.351±0.016), and (0.233±0.005) respectively, which indicates that the combined group could increase the cell proliferation significantly(P<0.05).Cultured for 24 hours, the cell migration rate was(42.02±7.62), (45.82±3.96), (68.53±11.22),and (34.21±3.99), suggesting that combined group have the largest cell migration(P<0.05).Conclusion The association of low molecular heparin and Galectin-3 could improve the cell migration and cell proliferation of vascular endothelial cell from esenchymal stemcells significantly.

AIM: To study the expression of laminin and survivin in primary gallbladder carcinoma(PGC),and their correlation with clinicopathologic characteristics of PGC.METHODS: Forty-nine specimens with PGC,21 with cholecystoadenoma and 13 with chronic cholecystitis were included in this study.Laminin and survivin expression in gallbladder tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry.The relationship between laminin or survivin expression and clinico-pathologic data were also analyzed.RESULTS: An intact basement membrane(BM) with well-delineated,smooth and continuous line-like laminin staining was identified in the tissues from chronic cholecystitis,adenoma of gallbladder and gallbladder carcinoma in situ.Submucosal BM,which was interrupted in PGC specimens in NevinⅡstage,was almost lost in tumor tissues in Nevin Ⅲ,Ⅳ and Ⅴ stage.Meanwhile,a distinguishing feature of the tumor tissue was broken or discontinuous line-like laminin staining in the matrix to tumor cells.These lines were detected to be weak,or even entirely absent in some neoplastic tissue sections.Sometimes,a faint cytoplasmic staining of laminin was also found in tumor tissues as classified to Nevin Ⅲ,Ⅳ and Ⅴ stage.Expression of survivin in PGC tissues was significantly higher than that in adenoma of gallbladder and chronic cholecystitis.However,survivin expressions had no specificity and positive predictive value for cell differentiation and grade as well as clinic stage of PGC by using statistical analyses.Furthermore,no correlation was confirmed between the staining features of laminin and survivin expression.CONCLUSION: Laminin expression is strongly associated with the malignancy and invasiveness of PGC,and survivin might play an important synergistic role in the development of PGC.

Objective To explore the causes of deep vein thrombosis in lower extremities (DVT). Meth-ods Retrospective analysis of 411 patients with DVT being treated in our hospital from 2004 to 2009. Results 301 (73.2%) cases were with definite causes and 110( 26.8%) cases without definite causes. 195 cases occurred follow-ing operations and 68 cases following wounds and fractures. 122 cases accompanied with medical conditions ,50 cases occurred following pregnancy or child birth,39 cases suffered from cancer, 19 cases suffered from infection of lower extremity or local lesion,67 cases had past history of DVT. Conclusions Suggest that surgery, wound and fractures, postpartum, cancer, chronic illness inducing long-term bed stay and past history of DVT might correlate with DVT.

Based on previous results of 16S rDNA sequence homologuous and results of physic-biochemical indexes and morphological characteristics in the present work, bacterial strain ge15 isolated from roots of ginseng plants was identified as Stenotrophomonas rhizophila. Confronting incubation results showed that, strain ge15 inhibited the growth of Alternaria panax, Phytophthora cactorum, and Cylindrocapon destructans significantly, and the width of inhibition zone was 13.3, 24.0, 12.0 mm, respectively. Further results showed that the emergence rate and seedling survive rate of ge15 treatment was significantly higher than those of the control, and which was similar to pesticide carbendazol treatment. The ge15 strain has good application potential in ginseng diseases control without contamination.
