(0.05)).Conclusions PE is an effective form of treatment for recurrent FSGS by removing circulating factor,especially if initiated early.Failure to achieve remissions and maintain stable remission after the initial period of PE imply a poor outcome and glomeruli lesion been sclerosis.Therefore,PE should be performed as early as possible until completely remissions.

Objective:To investigate the effects of trimetazidine on cardiac systolic and diastolic function in patients with chronic congestive heart failure due to coronary artery disease.Methods:45 patients with chronic congestive heart failure due to coronary artery disease were divided into two groups,23 patients in trimetazidine group and 22 in placebo-control group.The echocardiogram indices of cardiac function of patients in two groups-SV,CO,CI,LVEF,VA,VE and VA/VE were measured before and after treatment.Results:The indexes SV,CO,CI and LVEF were significantly higher in trimetazidine group than those in control group(P0.05).Conclusion:Trimetazidine can improve systolic function of ischemic heart by improving the energy metabolism of ischemic heart.

Objective:To investigate the relationship among serum uric acid,C-reactive protein and the degree of carotid artery atherosclerosis in patients with essential hypetension.Methods:122 patients with essential hypertension were divided into intima-media thickness group(Ⅰ),plaque development group(Ⅱ) and vessel stenosis group(Ⅲ).Concentration of serum uric acid and C-reactive protein were measured in each patient and the relationship between serum uric acid and C-reactive protein was observed.Results:The concentrations of serum uric acid and C-reactive protein in group Ⅱ and Ⅲ were positively connected with pathologic changes of carotid artery atherosclerosis( P

Objective To investigate the impact of different surgical methods and different doses of euthyrox on bone mineral density.Methods A sample of 40 patients received thyroid cancer operation (excised affected side leaf,aisthmus,most of offside and neck VI lymph node dissection)and 40 patients received nodular goiter operation (excised affected side leaf)were collected,the dose of euthyrox taken in was 85 .2μg in thyroid cancer patients and 36.2μg in nodular goiter patients daily,the bone mineral density 6 month and 1 year after operation was detected. Results There was no difference of BMD between the two group 6 month after operation (P>0.05),but BMD of the observation group was (0.64 ±0.28)g/m2,which was lower than that of control group (t=2.235,P=0.03).Com-pared with pre-operation,BMD of control group had no change and the observation group appeared drop 1 year after operation.Conclusion Patients received thyroid cancer taking in euthyrox may show BMD reduced,especial 1 year after operation,doctors should be on the alert and supplement calcium appropriately.

A lot of children with congenital heart disease have an abnormal development of nervous system. A variety of biochemical and physical examination indices can be used to predict adverse outcome of neurodevelopment caused by congenital heart disease and they contribute to early intervention and improvement of neurodevelopmental disorders. In recent years, new progresses in the laboratory tests, neurological physiccal examination and perioperative management of the neurodevelopmental abnormalities caused by congenital heart disease have been made. The predictive factors of abnormal neurodevelopment caused by congenital heart disease were reviewed in this article.
