Objective:To explore application value of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT-3DE ) for heart function evaluation after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) .Methods:Clinical data of 45 patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) collected from Jan 2013 to Jan 2014 in our hospital were enrolled .All patients received selective coro-nary angiography (CAG) and PCI .Another 45 healthy cases undergoing physical examination during the same period were selected as normal control group .End-diastolic volume (EDV) ,end-systolic volume (ESV) ,left ventricular ejection frac-tion (LVEF) ,peak ejection rate (PER) and peak filling rate (PFR) were measured by RT-3DE and two-dimensional echo-cardiography (2DE) respectively and compared between two groups .Results:In normal control group ,there were no sig-nificant differences in all indexes between two measuring methods ,P>0.05 all;in CHD group ,compared with 2DE meas-ured value ,there were significant rise in EDV [ (130.6 ± 30.3) ml vs .(152.5 ± 35.2) ml] ,ESV [ (75.2 ± 21.8) ml vs . (94.1 ± 22.5) ml] ,PER [(2.41 ± 0.47) vs .(2.81 ± 0.39)] and PFR [(1.85 ± 0.25) vs .(2.13 ± 0.31)] ,and significant reduction in LVEF [ (45.8 ± 5.2)% vs .(41.6 ± 4.9)% ] in RT-3DE ,P<0.01 all;on one week ,one month and three months after PCI ,EDV and ESV gradually reduced ,LVEF ,PER and PFR gradually rose in CHD group with significant difference ,P<0.05 or <0.01 .Conclusion:RT-3DE can perform direct ,accurate and quantitative evaluation on heart form and function before and after PCI ,which is a reliable ,fast ,simple and new method evaluating PCI therapeutic effect in CHD patients .

Objective:To study the difference of upper airway form and hyoid position of the adults with different vertical facial types.Methods:Cephalograms of 120 adults with different vertical facial types were retrospectively investigated by computerized cephalometric analysis.Upper airway depths and hyoid position were measured,and differences were compared between male and female,also compared among different vertical facial type groups.Results:The sagittal depth of upper airway in male was larger than that in female,but there was no statistical difference except V-LPW.Among different vertical facial types,the sagittal depths of upper airway in high angle group was smaller than that in average angle group and low angle group.There was statistical difference in hyoid position between genders,AH-SN,AH-FH and AH-C3 in male were larger than in female(P

[Objective]To evaluate the outcome of the Pemberton osteotomy for the treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in older children. [Method]There were 21 children (24 hips) older than 7 years in our study , who received the Pemberton osteotomy, and combined with femoral shortening, derotational or varus osteotomies according to the level of dislocation, anteversion and neck-shalf angle of the femur. The average age at operation were 9 years and 7 months (range: 7~13.5 years).[Result]The mean follow-up were 5 years and 5 months. Eighteen hips achieved the excellent or good clinical results according to the McKay's clinical criteria. All of the hips got improvements of the Acetabular Index, Sharp Acetabular Angle, Center-Edge Angle and Acetabular Head Index. The average results were in the normal range. Eighteen hips got ⅠorⅡclass of the Severin’s radiographic classification.However, 9 hips were limited in the range of movement. Four hips got subluxation.Six hips developed avascular necrosis of the femoral head. Three hips got improved osteoarthritis.[Conclusion]The Pemberton osteotomy for the treatment of developmental dysplasia of the hip in older children can mostly achieve well-used, contained or concentric reduction hips, meanwhile need to reduce the complications.

Objective To explore the immunologic regulation of the bifidobacterium adolescence cell wall(BCW) on function of macrophage in mice and tumor inhibition of BCW on human transitional cell carcinoma of bladder(BTCC) outside of body.Methods BCW wereinjected into abdomen of KM mice,the level of IL-1,IL12 and TNF-?which produced by macrophage was determined by ELISA reagent box.The role of tumor inhibition was determined by MTT method.Results The level of IL-1,IL12 and TNF-?of BCW injection group was higher than of control group(P

AIM: To study whether the excitatory amino acids (EAAs)-triggered excitotoxicity contribute to the evolution of hyperbilirubinemia-associated brain injury. METHODS: Newborn rabbits with hyperbilirubinemia were decapitated and then, Na~+-K~+-ATPase activities, neurotransmitters and non-neurotransmitters concentration in brains were determined. RESULTS: It was found that the activities of Na~+-K~+-ATPase both in brains and cytomembrane and the amounts of glutamate (P

Sudden cardiac death is still a difficult problem for doctors.Every therapy has its drawback.In the past 20 years,there have been great progress in implantable cardioverter defibrillator.This therapy strategy may bring more benefits to indicated patients.This article reviews the application of implantable cardioverter defibrillator and summarizes its history and development,component,function,curative effect,symptom of adaption and contraindication.

This article reviews the history and development of the pacing,introduces the latest technology of pacing at home and abroad and promotes the clinical development of pacing therapy.With the development of the pacing technology,it is used more widely than before.It is applied to the patients not only with slow-arrhythmia or conductive diseases,but also with disorders of electrical or non-electrical diseases.This review introduces some new therapies.

BACKGROUND:Extracorporeal cardiac shock wave therapy (CSWT) can up-regulate angiogenic factors and its receptors,promote angiogenesis and collateral circulation establishment by introducing shock waves to myocardium,however,the specific mechanisms remain unclearly.OBJECTIVE:To observe the influence of CSWT on the content of serum endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in pigs following acute myocardial infarction (AMI).METHODS:Pig AMI model was established by embolizing the distal of left anterior coronary artery.Following model preparation,pigs were randomly divided into 2 groups.In the experimental group received three CSWT at days 1,3 and 5,200 hits per point,totally 12 points,with 0.09 mJ/mm~2 energy.Pigs with simple AMI were served as the control group.The serum eNOS level was detected by ELISA method before,immediate postoperative,and at days,1,3,5,and weeks 1,2,3,and 4 after operation.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The eNOS level of both groups were obvious decreased at immediate postoperative than that before operation.At day 1 after CSWT,eNOS level was increased in the experimental group,which was still decreased in the control group.It revealed that CSWT play a positive effect on ischemia rnyocardium.The eNOS level reached a peak in the experimental group after 3 times of CSWT,lasted for 2-3 weeks,and began to decrease at week 4.The difference between the experimental group and control group had significance (P＜0.01).The results demonstrated that CSWT can treat AMI effectively by promoting eNOS expression.
