OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the status quo and tendency of the utilization of lipid-lowering drugs in our hospital.METHODS:The utilization of lipid-lowering drugs in our hospital between 2005 and 2008 was analyzed statistically by ranking consumption sum and DDDs.RESULTS:The consumption sum of lipid-lowering drugs had a sharp increase during 2007～2008 as compared with 2005～2006,its proportion in the drugs for cardiovascular diseases increased to some degree.During 2007～2008,Statins took the first two places on the annual consumption list,its use gained popularity and its DDDs increased.The application of Fibrates also took an upward trend.CONCLUSION:The use of lipid-lowering drugs in our hospital had been on the rise,with Statins and Fibrates took the predominant places,which is in line with the requirement of evidence-based medicine.

The effect of traditional therapy is limited for liver cancer,gene therapy gets more and more recognition in recent years.Oncolysis virus is a kind of conditionally replicating virus,with special reproductivity in cancer cells,and then kills them.Gene agents are usually introduced into tumor tissue by intra-tumor and intra-arterial injection,and the technique of interventional therapy is able to satisfy the demand excellently.So,some breakthrough is expected in treating liver cancer by skillfully combining oncolysis virus and interventional technique

In recent years, the number of outpatients in stomatological hospital is in increasing year by year and being accompanied by the corresponding medical risks. One of the risks which may endanger the patient life is medical emergency which need emergency treatment by the dentists in dental clinical practice. The most common emergency type is syncope, followed by hyperventilation, drug overdose, adrenaline reaction and hypertension, etc. Unexpected events mainly occurred at the end of the treatment and before leaving the dental clinic, during or immediately after the local anesthesia, in the treatment process. Tooth extraction related emergency is the most frequently occurring emergency, followed by the local anesthesia related ones. It's strongly suggested that dentists should pay more attention to outpatient clinical emergency treatment, and related knowledge and skills training should be offered to improve the ability to handle medical emergencies.

Objective To study the changes of nitric oxide synthase in placenta during fetal cardiac bypass. Methods Eight pregnant ewes (gestation 120～140 d)were divided equally into control group and bypass group. Bypass group underwent fetal cardiac bypass with centrifugal pump and placenta. Fetal hemodynamic date and blood gas value were recorded before and after bypass. Placenta vascular resistance was calculated. Fetal serum nitric oxide (NO), serum endothlin-1(ET-1) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) of placenta tissue were assayed. Transcriptions of endothelial NOSmRNA in placental tissue were assayed with RT-PCR technique. Results Acidosis and pressure of oxygen decreased after bypass appeared in fetal lamb of bypass group. Placenta vascular resistance of bypass group elevated significantly (P

Objective To evaluate the outcomes of one-stage repair of aortic coarctation (CoA) and associated cardiac anomalies in infants through a midline sternotomy. Methods Between June 2002 and August 2005, 36 patients (27male, 9 female) underwent surgery for CoA. The age was from 18 days to 8 years[mean (14.3?9.5) months], 27 patients (75%) were younger than 1 year and 18 patients (50%) were younger than 3 months. The body weight was from 3.0 to 23 kg [mean(6.6?3.0)kg]. 27 patients were symptomatic infants and 8 patients were asymptomatic of adults. One patient had recoarctation after repair through a left thracotomy one year ago. The associated cardiac anomalies included ventricular septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, secundum atrial septal defect, hypoplasia of the aortic arch, transposition of great arteries and subaortic stenosis. 36 cases underwent one-stage operation of extended end-to-end anastomosis through a midline sternotomy. Results One patient died postoperatively with a mortality of 2.8 %. The cause of death was heart and lung function failure. 35 cases were followed up from 4 months to 3 years .One late death occurred. 34 cases were in good condition and no recoarctation. Conclusion Outcomes of one-stage repair of CoA and associated cardiac anomalies in infants through a midline sternotomy is excellent. Technique of extended end -to-end anastomosis may potentially reduce the incidence of recoarctation.

Objective To observe the relationship between blood stasis syndrome and clinical pathology in patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Methods Clinical and pathological materials of 42 patients with blood stasis syndrome,and 73 patients with non blood stasis syndrome were analyzed. Result Patients with blood stasis syndrome are often female and accompanied with renal dysfunction. Compared with patients of non blood stasis syndrome,Lee’s grades were obviously higher,degrees of fibrinogen-related antigen (FRA) deposited in renal were stronger,and scores or ratio of tubular atrophy significantly were higher. Conclusion Blood stasis syndrome of IgAN is correlated with certain renal pathological changes. Blood stasis is the main etiological factor.

Objective To summarize the experience of interventional catheterization conjoined with cardiac surgical procedures performed in 23 children with congenital heart disease(CHD). Methods 12 cases with residual patent ductus arteriosus after surgical ligation and 2 postoperative cases with severe cyanosis CHD with leftover ventricular septal defect (VSD) received transcatheter closure procedures. 2 children with branch pulmonary stenosis after total correction of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) received angioplasty and stent placement, respectively. Another postoperative case with aortopulmonary collateral arteries (APCAs) angiorrhexis underwent transcatheter haemostasis. 6 cases underwent interventional catheterization in the preoperative period. 5 cases with transposition of great arteries (TGA) underwent balloon atrial septostomy (BAS) before artery switch procedure and 1 case of TOF underwent APCAs transcatheter occlusion before total correction. Results All cases with residual left to right shunts after surgery were occluded by transcatheter therapy. Interventional catheterization procedure relieved stenosis of branch pulmonary artery in postoperative case with TOF. Haemorrhage was stopped with embolization of ruptured APCAs. Hypoxia and acidosis improved after BAS therapy in 5 cases with TGA and intact ventricular septum and 3 survived from following artery switch procedure while 2 died. The APCAs was transcatheter occluded before TOF total correction. Conclusion Interventional catheterization therapy conjoined with cardiac surgical procedure was an effective and essential method in some postoperative CHD cases and in some of complex cyanosis CHD cases.
