Objective To investigate the influence of trimetazidine combined with atorvastatin on heart func-tion and the BNP level in patients with cornary heart failure.Methods The clinical data of 400 patients with cornary heart disease were retrospectively analyzed.194 patients in the control group were treated with conventional treatment, 206 patients in the observation group were treated with trimetazidine combined with atorvastatin on the basis of the control group.The treatment effect,cardiac function and BNP level were observed and compared.Results The effec-tive rate of the observation group was 91.26%,which was significantly higer than 76.29% of the control group (χ2 =16.667,P <0.05).After treatment,the cardiac index,stroke volume,cardiac output,left ventricular ejection fraction and BNP level of the two groups were significantly higher than before treatment,and those in the observation group were significantly higher than the control group(t =2.505,2.851,3.308,3.452,all P <0.05).Conclusion Trime-tazidine combined with atorvastatin in treatment of cornary heart failure has good curative effect,it can reduce the serum level of BNP,improve cardiac function significantly,which is of great value for clinical use.

Objective To explore the distribution and characterization of class 1 integrons in E.coli from healthy feces,and to elucidate the status of gene-cassettes.Methods Routine method was used to isolate E.coli,antibiotics susceptibility was tested by the disk diffusion method;class 1 integron was detected by PCR assay;PCR products were sequenced and analyzed.Results Of 97 samples,76 isolates were identified,and 25 isolates were multiple-drug resistant.The antibiogram was sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim,ampicillin,streptomycin,tetracycline,erythromycin.14 of 25 isolates carried class 1 integrons,and the size of integrons differed from 1 800 bp(10 strains) to 750 bp(4 strains).The sequenced PCR product demonstrated that the 1 800 bp integron laboured aadA1-dfrA14-orf gene cassette conferred the resistance to sulfamethoxazole-timethoprim,streptomycin and aminoglycoside;the 750 bp integron laboured dfrA14 gene cassette conferred the resistance to sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim.Conclusion The different kinds of class 1 integrons exist in E.coli from the healthy students,and determine the multiple-resistant antibiotics.

Owing to the advanced age,limb hemiplegia,dehydration,and vessel wall injury,stroke may be easy to cause venous thromboembolism (VTE).VTE mainly include deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE).DVT refers to abnormal blood clotting in the veins and impedes venous return.The dislodgement of emboli from the vessel wall can form a thrombotic embolism,and cause PE,myocardial infarction,and stroke; it can not only prolong hospitalization,but also increase the mortality.This article reviews the incidence,risk factors,treatment,and prevention of DVT after a stroke.

Purpose Semi-macro-chromogenic substrate methods have been adopted by British Pharmacopoeia to determine the anti-F Ⅹ a activity and anti-F Ⅱ a activity of low molecular weight heparin. Based on the above methods, the micro-chromogenic substrate methods were established to determine the anti-F Ⅹ a and anti-F Ⅱ a activity of heparins. Methods After the adjustment of the concentration of reagents and the whole volume of the test, 96-well microplates and the microplate spectrophotometer have been used to determine the absorbance. Results Six samples of heparin's potencies of anti-F Ⅹ a and anti-F Ⅱ a have been determined. The test results show that the errors of the tests are small and the repeatability is good. Conclusion Micro-chromogenic method can be used to determine the activity of anti-F Ⅹ a and anti-F Ⅱ a of heparins. This method improved the efficiency of the test and decreased the cost of the test. Mow the chromogenic substrate methods are being considered as the pharmacopoeia methods to substitute the anticoagulant methods.

Objective To compare the difference between linear blending and non-linear blending function for dual-energy CT, and to evaluate the effect on CT image quality. Methods The model was made of a piece of fresh pork liver inserted with 5 syringes containing various concentrations of iodine solutions ( 16.3,26.4,48.7,74.6 and 112.3 HU). Linear blending images were automatically reformatted after the model was scanned in the dual-energy mode. Non-linear blending images were reformatted using the software of optimal contrast in Syngo workstation. Images were divided into 3 groups, including linear blending group, non-linear blending group and 120 kV group. Contrast noise ratio (CNR) were measured and calculated respectively in the 3 groups and the different figure of merit (FOM) values between the groups were compared using one-way ANOVA. Twenty patients scanned in the dual-energy mode were randomly selected and the SNR of their liver, renal cortex, spleen, pancreas and abdominal aorta were measured. The independent sample t test was used to compare the difference of signal to noise ratio (SNR) between linear blending group and non linear blending group. Two readers' agreement score and single-blind method were used to investigate the conspicuity difference between linear blending group and non linear blending group.Results With models of different CT values, the FOM values in non-linear blending group were 20. 65 ±8.18,11.40±4.25, 1.60±0.82,2.40±1.13, 45.49±17. 86. In 74. 6 HU and 112. 3 HU models, the differences of the FOM values observed among the three groups were statistically significant ( P＜0.05),which were 0.30±0. 06 and 14. 43 ±4. 59 for linear blending group, and 0. 22 ±0. 05 and 15.31±5.16 for 120 kV group. And non-linear blending group had a better FOM value. The SNR of renal cortex and abdominal aorta were 19.2±5.1 and 36. 5 ± 13.9 for non-linear blending group, while they were 12.4 ±3.8 and 22.6±7.0 for linear blending group. There were statistically significant differences between the two groups. The conspicuity scores of different organs in non linear blending group were far higher than those in the linear bending group. The Kappa value was 0. 64, showing good consistency. Conclusion Compared to the linear blending method, the non-linear blending method was a better option, especially in improving SNR and conspicuity.

Objective To observe the influence of intra-articular injection of lovastatin on cartilage degeneration and mRNA expres-sion of matrix metalloproteiase-1,-3 (MMP-1,-3) in cartilage and synovium of osteoarthritis (OA) model. Methods Thirty New Zeal-and rabbits underwent unilateral anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) were random divided into two groups. The rabbits in experi-mental group received 0.1 mg/ml intra-articular lovastatin injection at 0.2 ml/kg of body weight immediately after surgery , once a week. Those in control group were treated with intra-articular injection of normal saline. At the 6th week after surgery, all rabbits were sacrificed. The articular cartilage degeneration of medial femoral condyle was evaluated under microscopy. Gene expression of MMP-1,-3 was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results Cartilage degeneration in untreated group was significantly more severe than that in experimental group. In cartilage, no significant difference on the expression of MMP-1 and MMP-3 mRNA was found be-tween the experimental group and control group. In synovium, the expression of MMP-1 and MMP-3 mRNA was significantly suppressed in experimental group compared with control group. Conclusion During the development of experimental OA, intra-articular administration of lovastatin reduces the expression of matrix degrading enzyme, thus alleviate cartilage degradation.

Objective To study of relationship between elderly people's alexithymia and mind-reading. Methods There were 108 old people over 70 years old, tested by mind-reading,cognitive ability and twenty-item Toronto alexithymia scale. Results There were significant difference in mind-reading(16.00±4.84, 19.36±2.91,t =3.38,P ＜0.01), memory span(5.80±1.42,7.18±1.13,t =4.28,P ＜0.01), working memory( t =4.05,P ＜0.01),processing speed( t =-4.80,P ＜0.01) between high and low alexithymia groups.Alexithymia scores were negatively related to the scores of mind-reading, memory span,working memory,processing speed,correlation coefficient was 0.227( P <0.05),-0.377( P <0.01),-0.334( P <0.01),-0.470( P <0.01),respectively. With mind-reading,cognitive processing and educational level as independent variables,with total scores, F1, F2, and F3 of TAS as dependent variable,respectively,the regression equation of total scores was significant( F =8.594,P ＜0.01), and the one of F1 was significant( F =8.796,P ＜0.01),but the one of F2( F =1.735,P ＞0.05) and F3( F =1.181,P ＞0.05) was not significant. Conclusion Elderly people's alexithymia is negatively related to mind-reading and several cognitive abilities. Mind-reading could affect emotional recognition, but not affect emotional description and export-oriented thinking.

Objective To compare the influence of two different managements of relief incision (exposed relaxation therapy or absorbable hemostatic gauze) in infants' palatoplasty. Methods A total of 118 infants with cleft palate between 5- to 8-month-old for the study were randomly divided into two groups: group A was exposed therapy group, and in group B both sides of relief incision were placed absorbable hemostatic gauze. The wound bleeding, body temperature, diet and incidence of fistula were observed and analyzed after operation. Results There was no significant difference between the two groups in postoperative temperature, diet and wound healing (P>0. 05). The postoperative wound bleeding was statistically significant differences between the two groups (P<0. 05). Conclusions Either exposed therapy or placed absorbable hemostatic gauze in relief incision, has minimal systemic and local reactions in the postoperative infant. The advantages of exposed treatment are economic and simple, and less irritant to the wound.
