Objective To evaluate left atrial function in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy(ICM)and dilated cardiomyopathy(DCM)by two dimensional-speckle tracking imaging(2D-STI).Methods Twenty-two patients with ICM,twenty-six with DCM and thirty-two healthy subjects were studied.The maximum volume(LAVmax),minimum volume(LAVmin)and volume before the systole(LAVp)of left atria were acquired using biplane area-length method,and calculated the total emptying volume(LATV),expansion index(AEI),active emptying volume(LAEV)and fraction(LAEF)of left atria.The strain and strain rate during systole and late of diastole(Ss,SRs,Sa and SRa)were measured at each left atrial wall (septal,lateral,anterior and inferior).The average of them were worked out.The correlation of left atrial function and strain rate were analysed.Results ①No significant differences were found at the age,sex,heart rate and the E wave between the mitral leaflet tips during all the groups.Compared with the control group,the peak of A wave,the deceleration time of E wave and LVEF decreased in ICM and DCM groups,while the LAD,LVEDD and E/A increased significantly in the two groups(P<0.05).There were no significant differences between ICM and DCM.②Compared with the controls,the LAVmax increased,AEI and LAEF decreased significantly in patients with ICM and DCM,even lower in DCM(p<0.05).③Compared with the controls,the Ss,SRs,Sa and SRa reduced significantly in patients with ICM and DCM(P<0.05),and the DCM showed much significant differences than ICM(P<0.05).④The AEI had a positive correlation with SRs(r =0.765,P<0.01).The LAEF had a significant correlation with SRa(r =0.830,P<0.01).Conclusions The accumulation during systole and active emptying function during late of diastole are both lower in ICM and DCM,even worse in the latter.The 2D-STI may paly an important role in the evaluation of left atrial function.

The strains Dz01 and Ma4 were isolated from cadavers of Brontispa longissima(Gestro),and were confirmed to be pathogenicity to Brontispa longissima(Gestro).After microscopical observation of the morphological characters of mycelium,phialide and conidia from two isolates,they were found to be identical to Metarhizium anisopliae var anisopliae,so they were identificated as M.anisopliae var anisopliae.The Maximum Parsimony tree constructed based on the sequences of ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 regions in ribosomal DNA from two isolates and 31 other isolates which represent different species or varity species of genus Metarhizium obtained from GenBank database showed that two isolates clustered together in the clade which was composed of the isolates classified as Metarhizium anisopliae var anisopliae.This provided the molecular data for the result of morphological identification of Dz01 and Ma4 isolates.

A new method for chiral separation and purity inspection of landiolol hydrochloride and its stereoisomers was developed by ultra-performance convergence chromatography ( UPC2 ) . The mobile phase was the mixture of supercritical CO2 and methanol/n-butyl alcohol/acetonitrile (1:1:1, V/V) plus 0. 5%NH3?H2O. The separation was carried out on the Daicel CHIRALPAK? IF column (150 mm × 4. 6 mm, 3 μm) with a flow rate of 2. 8 mL/min at 50℃ using 223 nm as detection wavelength. Under the optimized experimental conditions, for R,R-stereoisomer, R,S-stereoisomer and S,R-stereoisomer, the detection limits (LOD, S/N=3) were 0. 3, 0. 4 and 0. 3 mg/L, the linear ranges were 2-300 mg/L, 5-300 mg/L and 2-300 mg/L, the recoveries of spike samples were 103. 4%±2. 5%, 91. 8%±2. 5% and 101. 7%±1. 5%, and the injection repeatabilities were 0. 06%, 0. 09% and 0. 08% (n=6), respectively. The experimental results demonstrate that the UPC2-based method can be used for the analysis and determination of landiolol hydrochloride and its stereoisomers.

Objective To evaluate the function and synchronization in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation(PAF) by two dimensional speckle tracking imaging(2D-STI) measuring the strain of left atrial.Methods Thirty healthy controls and thirty-five patients with PAF were studied.The PAFs were divided into group PAF1 during the diapause and group PAF2 during the stage of attack.From the strain-time curve of 2D-STI workstation,the peak velocity(Vs,Ve and Va),the peak amplitude of longitudinal strain (Ss,Se and Sa) and strain rate (SRs,SRe and SRa) were acquired in the course of systole,the early and the late diastole respectively.The synchronization of left atrial (Ts-SD,Te-SD and Ta-SD) could be gotten from the time to the peak strain.The correlation were analysed between the synchronization indices and the strain rate parameters.Results ①No significant differences were found at the age,heart rate,E/A,IVS,LVEDD and LVEF.Compared with the control group,the LAD increased and DT decreased in PAF1 and PAF2 groups (P <0.05).②The peak velocity were slower,the peak strain were shorter and the peak strain rate were lessened in the PAFs than the controls(P <0.05),except the SRa(P >0.05).③The Ts-SD and Te-SD were much more different during the three groups(P <0.05),the PAF2 showed fewer synchronization; the Ta-SD was higher in the PAF1 than the controls(P <0.05).④The Ta-SD had a positive correlation with SRa(r =0.61,P <0.01).Conclusions The reservoir and conduit function of left atrial are impaired in PAFs during the diapause,the booster pump could recover partially,however,there are dyssynchronization.The booster pump function disappear during the stage of attack and there are worse synchronization.2D-STI may paly important roles in the assessment of function and synchronization of left atrial.
