Objective To observe the perioperative myocardial protection of high-dose atorvastatin to acute coronary syndrome(ACS) patients during percutaneous coronary artery interventional therapy(PCI).Methods One hundred and twenty patients with ACS undergoing elective PCI were divided into group A and group B with different oral dose of atorvastatin ( 80 mg/d and 20 mg/d ) for 3 days before operation by random digits table. Troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase isozyme MB (CK-MB), high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin (IL)-6 levels were measured before operation, 6 hours, 12 hours after operation and total cholesterol (TC), triglyeride (TG), low desity lipeprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipeprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were measured before operation and 3 days after operation.Results cTnI,CK-MB,hs-CRP and IL-6 levels in the two groups were increased significandy 6 hours and 12 hours after operation (P <0.05). Six hours after operation, cTnI and CK-MB levels in group A were significantly lower than those in group B [(0.35±0. 18 ) μg/L vs. (0.48±0. 16 ) μg/L, ( 3.78±0.45 )μg/Lvs. (4.56±0.55 )μg/L] (P < 0.05 ). Twelve hours after operation , hs-CRP and IL-6 levels in group A were significantly lower than those in group B [(4.53±0.98 ) mg/L vs. (7.03±0.88 ) mg/L, ( 30.6±11.2) ng/L vs.(43.8±12.1) ng/L] (P <0.05). TC, TG, LDL-C, HDL-C levels in the two groups did not change significantly before and after operation (P >0.05). Conclusions Myocardial protective effects of ACS patients treated with atorvastatin 80 mg/d for 3 days are better than those treated with oral atorvastatin 20 mg/d. High-dose atorvastatin can produce more beneficial effects.

Objective To discuss the key points of endovascular therapy for complex subclavian artery occlusive diseases. Methods During the period from January 2012 to December 2013, a total of 92 patients with complex subclavian artery occlusive disease were admitted to Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University, Beijing, China. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. The features of the lesions, the success rate of endovascular therapy, the use of combined approaches, the relief of symptoms after treatment, etc. were evaluated. Results The complex subclavian artery occlusive diseases could be divided into three types. Type Ⅰ: long segment of the left subclavian artery was occluded; type Ⅱ: ostial stenosis or occlusion of the right subclavian artery; and type Ⅲ: subclavian artery stenosis or occlusion was associated with the ostial disorder of the vertebral artery, or the opening of vertebral artery was affected by the subclavian artery stenosis or occlusion. The technical success rate was 82.6%. Combination use of femoral artery and brachial artery approach was employed in 27.2% of patients, which had improved the technical success rate. After the treatment the symptom improvement rate was 81.6%. Conclusion Upper limb artery approach can improve the re-canalization rate of left subclavian artery with long segment occlusion, and can ensure the accurate positioning of stent at the site of right subclavian artery opening. During the procedure of endovascular intervention for subclavian artery occlusion disease, attention should be paid to the protection of the vertebral artery.

Objective To construct an adenoviral vector containing mouse Hes1 gene, observe its expression in the hippocampus of adult mice and build a basis for further investigation of Hes1 gene in adult neurogenesis. Methods The restriction endonuclease was used to digest plasmid pEGFP-mHes1 and pDC316, and then, the products were recovered and connected by T4 DNA ligase and the shuttle plasmid pDC316-mHes1 was constructed which was identified by the method of PCR and EcoRI+HindⅢ digestion. After that, the shuttle plasmid pDC316-mHes1 was cotransfected into 293 cells with the adenovirus skeleton plasmid pBHGlox_E1,3Cre to obtain the produced replication defective recombinant adenovirus Ad5-mHes1. Then, the recombinant adenovirus could be further amplified and purified. The report recombinant adenoviruses were Ad5-EGFP containing enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP).Then, Ad5-mHes1 and Ad5-EGFP were stereotactic injected into the hippocampus of the adult C57BL/6 mice and their expressions in the hippocampus were detected. Western blotting was used to detect the Hes1 protein level 7 d after the injection. Fluorescent microscopy was used to observe the expression of EGFP in the hippocampus. Results The experimental results of identification by the methods of PCR and EcoRI+HindⅢ digestion were in accordance with the anticipated results, and the sequences were also the same with mHeslCDS sequences; Hes1 gene was expressed in the hippocampus of both the PBS injection group and the Ad5-mHes1 injection group 7 d after the injection, and the expression of Hes1/GAPDH in Ad5-mHes1 injection hippocampus (0.705 ±0.128) was statistically different as compared with that in PBS injection group (0.363±0.053, P<0.05). Ad5-EGFP strongly expressed in the granular cell layer and subgranular zone (SGZ) of dentate gyrus. Conclusion The adenoviral vector of mouse Hes1 gene is successfully established and Hes1 gene is expressed in the hippocampus of C57BL/6 adult mice.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of direct posterior restoration and screw-rod (plate) internal fixation technique for the treatment of children with congenital atlantoaxial subluxation.Methods Seven children with congenital atlantoaxial subluxation,admitted to our hospital from April 2008 to March 2011, were chosen in our study; and 3 of them were combined with tonsil hernia of cerebellum and 3 with occipitalization. Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) scale was used to evaluate the patient's condition. Five patients were treated by internal fixation with occipital bone screw-axis (C2) pedicle screw and 2 were with atlas C1-C2.Articulatio atlantoepistrophica repositioning was performed during the operation. The post-operative improvement degree and therapeutic effect of these patients were assessed based on the JOA scores and imaging. Results All the patients were followed up for 1-15 months (average 3.2 months). The clinical symptoms of all patients improved significantly. The positions of all screws were fine 1 month after operation. Three-dimensional CT showed that occipital/interbody fusions were good in 3 patients.JOA scores after the surgery were 7-16 with an average scores of (12.03±3.58),which were significantly different as compared with those before the surgery ([7.56±3.16], P<0.05). Conclusion Direct posterior restoration and internal fixation technique is a safe and effective method for the treatment of children with congenital atlantoaxial subluxation.
