0.05) during follow-up angiography. Conclusion Pullback atherectomy is an effective method of plaque removal for coronary artery disease with optimal short-term angiographic results, and large cutter and eccentric lesion seem to come with good immediate and follow-up angiographic results.

Objective To evaluate the effect of Beijing' s separation of clinic from pharmacy reform.Methods Use difference-in-difference method based on dataset on patients having Urban Worker Medical Insurance from twelve state-owned hospitals.Results The reform incurs a decrease in the outpatient and inpatient expenditure on medicine per visit (30％ and 21％,respectively),a decline in hospital's pharmaceutical ratio (9 percentages and 4 percentages,respectively); reduces the outpatient and inpatient expenditure per visit (19 ％ and 8 ％,respectively),with a decrease in the out-of-pocket part (23％ and 3％,respectively),and a slight increase in the Medical Insurance's part (2％); raises hospital's turnover (11％),outpatient's visits (22％),and inpatient visits (43％).Conclusion The reform encourages physicians to prescribe more scientifically,and hence reduces patient 's expenditure on medicine and hospital's pharmaceutical ratio; leads to a decrease in patience' s expenditure per visit;raises hospital's turnover; and doesn't cause a significant increase in the expenditure from social medical insurance.

Objective To study the relationship of secretory type Ⅱ phospholipase A2(sPLA2),coronary artery score and atherogenic index in patients with coronary artery disease.Methods One hundred and seventy nine patients confirmed by angiography were enrolled in the coronary heart disease(CHD)group and another 89 non-CHD patients were enrolled in the control group.Serum levels of sPLA2 were measured by ELISA in all subjects.The severity of coronary artery lesions was analysed in terms of coronary artery score by quantitive computer system(QCA).The atherogenic index(AI)was also evaluated in the 2 groups.Results Compared with the control group,serum level of sPLA2 was higher in the CHD group(55.18?11.75 u/mL vs 68.15?16.70 u/mL,P

the two drugs than using one alone.

Objective To build finite-element models of cerebral hemorrhage on which a simulation study of electrical impedance tomography(EIT) is based.Method With a kind of four-layer concentric circle model of head,finite-element method and dynamic NOSER algorithm are performed to reconstruct the images.Result As to the single-focus model of the cerebral hemorrhage,the focus can be clearly imaged,while to the several-focus model,the focuses can be imaged with vaguely adjacent boundaries.Conclusion The dynamic NOSER algorithm is an effective method to image cerebral hemorrhage in EIT.

AIM:To investigate the effect of resveratrol on the apoptosis of endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) induced by tert-butyl hydroperoxide (tBHP) and the underlying mechanisms.METHODS:Total mononuclear cells were isolated from peripheral blood by density gradient centrifugation, and the cells were cultured on fibronectin-coated culture dishes.After 4 d of culture, attached cells were divided into control group, tBHP group, and resveratrol plus tBHP group (pretreated with resveratrol for 24 h and then cultured with 100 μmol/L tBHP for 6 h).The proliferation and migration abilities of the EPC were assessed by MTT assay, BrdU incorporation assay and modified Boyden chamber assay.The proportion of apoptotic EPC was determined by flow cytometry after staining with fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated Annexin V and propodium iodide.The level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was determined by H2DCF-DA method.Caspase-3 activity was assay using a caspase-3 colorimetric assay kit.The protein levels of cleaved caspase-3, Bcl-2 and Bax were determined by Western blot.RESULTS:Resveratrol decreased EPC apoptosis induced by tBHP in a dose-dependent manner.Moreover, resveratrol increased the proliferation and migration abilities of the EPC.Resveratrol decreased intracellular ROS level, caspase-3 activity and the protein level of cleaved caspase-3.Resveratrol also decreased protein expression of Bax and increased protein expression of Bcl-2.CONCLUSION:Resveratrol attenuates EPC apoptosis induced by oxidative stress, and its mechanisms may be related to protecting the mitochondrial function.

Objective To conduct a Meta?analysis to compare the safety and short?term efficacy of laparoscopic assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG)and open distal gastrectomy(ODG)in D2 radical surgeries for locally advanced distal gastric cancer. Methods The literatures from Janurary,1990 to August,2014 on the evaluation of safety and short?term efficacy of LADG versus ODG in D2 radical surgeries for locally advanced distal gastric cancer were collected. The quality of the enrolled articles was evaluated and the software Revman 5.2 was adopted to analyze the cura?tive effect. Results Totally 25 articles met the inclusion criteria,including 5 044 patients with treatment of D2 radical surgeries for locally advanced distal gastric cancer. There was no significant difference in the cleaning number of lymph nodes between LADG and ODG in patients undergoing D2 radical surgeries for locally advanced distal gastric cancer. The operation time was longer for LADG than ODG,but the postoperative evaluation in?dexes such as the intraoperative blood loss and the short?term efficacy of LADG were superior to ODG. Conclusion In the treatment of locally ad?vanced distal gastric cancer,there were differences in the safety and short?term efficacy between LADG and ODG,and surgeons should give concern to these differences in clinical practice to select appropriate surgical approaches. Further research is still needed to explore the long?term efficacy.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanisms of factor fibroblast growth factor inducible 14(Fn14)in the high glucose induced-cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Method To observe the expression of collagenⅠ, connective tissue growth factor ( CTGF ) , transforming growth factor-β1 ( TGF-β1 ) , and Fn14 in high glucose induced-cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Fn14 expressions was down-regulated by siRNA interference technique, and then the expressions of collagen Ⅰ, CTGF, and TGF-β1 were observed, and the mechanism was also explored. Results The expression of collagen I, CTGF and TGF-β1 was significantly up-regulated after high glucose induced-cardiomyocyte hypertrophy for 72 h. At the same time, the expression of Fn14 was increased after 72 h-treatment, and reached the peak at concentration of 30 mmol/L high glucose. High glucose could not up-regulated the expression of collagenⅠ, CTGF, and TGF-β1 after siFn14 interference, while the same result was observed in the expression of p-JNK. Conclusion The expressions of collagenⅠ, CTGF, TGF-β1, and Fn14 in cardiomyocyte of neonatal rats were induced by high glucose. While Fn14 expression was inhibited, the expressions of collagenⅠ, CTGF, and TGF-β1 were down-regulated, which seems to be involved with p-JNK signaling pathway.

AIM: To clarify the protective effect of long-term administration of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor fluvastatin on ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI) in rats and its mechanisms. METHODS: Myocardial infarction were established by ligated left coronary anterior artery in SD rats, 24 hours after the operation, the survival rats were treated by gavage fluvastatin (20 mg?kg~(-1)?d~(-1)) or distilled water for 8 weeks. Doppler echocardiography, homodynamic and cardiac histomorphometry were used to assess the ventricular remodeling and cardiac function. The plasma levels of total cholesterol (Tch), creatinine (Cr), glutamic-oxal (o) acetic transaminase (AST), lipid peroxidation (LPO), glutathione perioxidase (GSH-PX), nitrogen monoxide (NO_2~-/NO_3~-) were detected. RESULTS: The Tch, Cr and AST were not significant difference in groups. Left ventricular end-diastole pressure, right relative weight, left ventricular posterior wall thickness, collagen volume fraction and the lung weight were decreased in AMI+fluvastatin group compared to AMI group (P

0.05)). The Val/Leu genotype and Leu allele frequencies in subjects without MI were significantly higher than that in subjects with MI (P
