Compared with 165 subjects without coronary artery disease(CAD),125 CAD pa-tients diagnosed bycoronary arteriography were investigated on the possibld relationship among psy-choosocial factors,including occupation,negative life events,type A behavior,and indexes of bloodlipid and blood rheology.The results showed that occupation type was one of the significantly correatesto the indexes of blood-lipid metabalism and blood rheology.The changes of neuroendocrinology andblood rheology following the occurrence of negative life events were correlated with the onset of lethalCAD.The physical and chemical indexes of hematology observed in subjects with Type A behaviorwere associated with atherogenesis and the pathogenesis of CAD.

A simple and rapid method was described for determining nitrogen content of a Kjeldahl digest by pulse polarography. The amount of sample needed was as small as 200mg. The digest was diluted and pipetted into a solution of formaldehyde in an acetate buffer. The hexamethylenetetramine produced by reaction between ammonia and formaldehyde was determined electrochemically at -0.9v.This method proved itself a better reproducibility. The recovery rate of nitrogen was 94.5% to 103.1%. Calibration curve of nitrogen in the range of 20 to 120 ?g/ml showed linear relation.Human milk and eleven different food-stuffs were analysed. There was no significant difference between the results by this method and Kjeldahl method.

Objective To research a method for detecting metallo-β-lactamase(MBL)to provide the basis for rationally selecting antibacterial drugs in clinic.Methods A total of 104 strains of imipenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumanmii(IRAB)were collected. The MBL phenotype was detected by using the EDTA disk potentiation test and the detection results were compared with the PCR detection results of MBL.Results Among 104 strains of tested IRAB,21 strains were the MBL gene positive by using PCR;24 strains were the MBL gene positive by using the EDTA disk potentiation test.Compared with the PCR detection results,the sensi-tivity of the EDTA disk potentiation test was 95.2% and the specificity was 95.1%.Conclusion The EDTA disk potentiation test for detecting MBL of Acinetobacter baumanmii is simple,credible in the detection results and cheap in cost,which is suitable for the preliminary identification of the MBL-producing Acinetobacter baumanmii in the clinical microbiology laboratory of the primary hos-pitals.

Antihistamines,a group of drugs most commonly used for the treatment of allergic diseases in dermatology,exert favorable efficacy and are well tolerated in most people.Due to their wide application,the safety of medication is particularly important.When they are used in some special populations with allergic diseases,such as children,pregnant and lactating women,the elderly and people with hepatic or renal insufficiency,their pharmacodynamics,metabolic characteristics and interactions with other drugs should be fully considered,and profits of medication and potential adverse effects should be well weighed before choosing relatively safe antihistamines.In addition,decreasing the routine dose or prolonging intervals between the administration of antihistamines may also be attempted to achieve maximum safety.

Objective To observe clinical effect of treating infantile cerebral palsy with acupuncture and massage. Methods 29 cases with cerebral palsy were randomly recurited into a control group and a treatment group. The treatment group was treated with acupuncture and massage, and the control group was treated with western medicine. The clinical effect of both groups was observed after the treatment. Results The total effective rate of the treatment group and the control group was 85.7% and 66.7% respectively, showing a significant difference (P<0.05) . Conclusion The treatment of infantile cerebral palsy with acupuncture and massage was better than treated with western medicine.

AIM: To observe the clinical effect of amniotic membrane transplantation and penetrating keratoplasty in the treatment of atheromatous corneal ulcer.
METHODS: Thirteen patients ( 13 eyes ) diagnosed atheromatous corneal ulcer from February 2009 to May 2014 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Surgical treatment including amniotic membrane transplantation and penetrating keratoplasty were used to deal the patients with no effects of drugs. All patients were followed up for 4mo to 2a ( mean 8mo ) after surgery. Visual acuity, healing and recipient of ulcer were examined.
RESULTS:There patients were treated conservatively with corneal ulcer slowly healing, healing time was 14~35 ( 21±12. 1 ) d. Seven cases were treated with amniotic membrane transplantation, 2 cases were treated with penetrating keratoplasty, 1 case of corneal ulcer perforation and lost light perception received enucleation of eyeball. Corneal ulcer were cured in patients performed amniotic membrane transplantation and penetrating keratoplasty. All patients had no recurrence during the follow-up period.
CONCLUSION:Atheromatous corneal ulcer is difficult to be cured by conservative treatment. Most patients need operation treatment. Amniotic membrane transplantation and penetrating keratoplasty can be performed to deal with atheromatous corneal ulcer and abtain satisfactory effect. But amniotic membrane transplantation is relatively simple and easy, and it is suitable for promotion in primary hospitals.

AIM: To investigate the preliminary clinical observation of excimer laser phototherapeutic keratectomy ( PTK ) assisted by anterior segment optical coherence tomography ( OCT ) in the treatment of non II type granular corneal dystrophy.
METHODS: A retrospective case series were studied. Totally 8 patients ( 12 eyes ) who were diagnosed as granular corneal dystrophy underwent PTK from April 2011 to January 2013 in our hospital. All patients were excluded from the II type granular corneal dystrophy ( Avellino corneal dystrophy ) by the Avellino corneal dystrophy rapid diagnostic kit and underwent preoperative anterior segment OCT examination, so as to determine the lesion morphology and depth, and used to guide the setting of PTK parameters. They were followed up for the complications after operation, postoperative recurrence, the recovery of visual acuity.
RESULTS: All patients were followed up for 6-12mo, average 9mo after operation. All patients' best corrected visual acuity were significantly improved, superficial corneal opacity lesions were effectively removed, and the corneal opacity recurrence or serious Haze were not found during the follow-up period after operation.
CONCLUSION: In patients with non type II granular corneal dystrophy, PTK assisted by anterior segment OCT can be accurate, effective removal of corneal lesions, obtain good effect after operation.

In this paper, a new imaging method to determine the position of blood effusions or edemas in the deep position of the brain by using electric current flowing through the brain is presented. Its principle is that the existence of non-normal matters in the brain cause a disturbance to boundary potentials, while a low frenqency current flows through the brain. In terms of the measurement for the change value of boundary potentials a reconstruction for the blood effusion or the edema in the deep position of the brain can be done.

Objective The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of combined therapy with L-carnitine and erythropoietin on renal anemia and nutritional status in patients treated with maintenance hemodialysis.Methods The combination of computer and manual searches were used.A Meta analysis was made regarding the effect of combined therapy with L-carnitine and erythropoietin on the improvement of renal anemia and nutritional status in patients treated with maintenance hemodialysis.The quality of the 9 studies was evaluated with the Jadad score.Statistical analysis was carried out by RevMan 5.0.Results A total of 428 patients in 9 reports were analyzed.Metaanalysis showed that there were significant improvement in hemoglobin (Hb) [WMD =9.21,95％ CI (7.69 ～10.73)] and hematocrit (Hct) [WMD =2.61,95％ CI (2.28 ～ 2.93)],albumin (ALB) [WMD =1.64,95％ CI (1.04 ～ 2.24)] and total protein (TP) [WMD =2.72,95 ％ CI (0.67 ～ 4.77)] in the treatment group compared with the control group.The level of erythropoietin dosage [WMD =-38.24,95％ CI (-76.87 ～ 0.39)] was decreased significantly.But there were no significant differences in triglyceride and serum phosphorus.Conclusion Combined therapy with L-carnitine and erythropoietin in patients treated with maintenance hemodialysis leads to significant improvement of renal anemia and nutritional status.
