Objective To explore the effects of Xiefuzhuyu decoction on myocardial cellar apoptosis and expression of ICAM-1 gene protein in rats of experimental acute ischemic myocardium. Methods The left anterior descending coronary artery was ligated to make a model of acute ischemic myocardium. The changes in myocardial cellar apoptosis and the ICAM-1 gene expression were detected. Results The number of myocardium cellar apoptosis in Xiefuzhuyu group and Diaoxinxiekang group were significantly less than those of ischemic model group respectively. The number of myocyte necrotic cell increased in ischemic group. At the same time, the expression of ICAM-1 supported this condition. Conclusion Xiefuzhuyu decoction and Diaoxinxiekang can protect ischemic myocardium.

Objective To adopt Fst statistical method to assess the heterogeneity sources of meta‐analysis by dichotomous varia‐ble .Methods The case‐control studies on the relationship between KIF1B gene rs17401966 polymorphism and hepatocellular carci‐noma(HCC) risk were collected by retrieving the databases including Google Scholar ,EMBASE ,PubMed ,ISI Web of Knowledge and CNKI .The meta analysis was performed by using the Stata12 .0 software .The genetic differentiation degree among populations was analyzed and researched by using the Arlequin 3 .5 software .Results A total of 5 case‐control studies were finally included ,in‐volving 12 research populations .The meta analysis on 12 populations showed that KIF1B gene rs17401966G allele was negatively correlated with HCC risk (OR=0 .77 ,95% CI:0 .65-0 .93 ;P=0 .005) .However ,the strong heterogeneity existed in this pooled re‐sults .The genetic differentiation test in the included 12 populations found that Zhang′s five research populations had varying de‐grees of genetic differentiation compared to other populations .Then the proper subgroup analysis was further conducted based on Fst value ,and then the I2 value of the heterogeneity test in the group 8 and 9 was descended to less than 25% .However ,the meta analysis results of the group 8 and 9 were inconsistent .Conclusion This study showed that conducting the meta‐analysis of KIF1B gene rs17401966 polymorphism and the HCC risk can find the heterogeneity sources of meta‐analysis by conducting the genetic dif‐ferentiation test in the included population .

Objective To evaluate the control effect of comprehensive measures of schistosomiasis after its transmission in?terruption in Kaihua County,Zhejiang Province,so as to provide the references for further consolidation of schistosomiasis con?trol. Methods The data of Oncomelania hupensis snail survey and control,as well as environmental reform in Kaihua County were collected and analyzed from 1996 to 2015. Results From 1996 to 2015,totally 2 635 snail habitats and 102.75 hm2 area with snails were found,and 125.4 thousand snails were dissected and no one was schistosome infected. The accumulated snail control area was 4 932.98 hm2,and the area with snails was effectively reduced by the comprehensive control measures. Conclu?sion The schistosomiasis control effect could be consolidated by the comprehensive control measures emphasizing environmen?tal reconstruction,and the snail surveillance work still should be strengthened.

Objective To investigate the effects of mild hypothermia on the expression of Dickkopf-1(Dkk1)in rats'brains after focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion and to explore the molecular mechanism of any neuroprotective effects of mild hypothermia. Methods A focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion model was established in rats by intraluminal filament occlusion of the middle cerebral artery.The adult rats were randomly divided into four groups:a sham-operation group,a sham-operation plus mild hypothermia group,a model group,and a model plus mild hypothermia group.The expression of Dkk-1 mRNA and protein in the ischemic cortex at different phases afterreperfusion were assessed using a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR),Western blotting and immunohistochemical staining.Results There was little expression of Dkk-1 mRNA or its protein in the sham-operation group or in the sham-operation plus mild hypothermia group.Expression of Dkk-1 mRNA and its protein began to increase after 2 h of cerebral ischemia and 3 h of reperfusion,with expression peaking at the 24th h after the start of reperfusion and then decreasing markedly.But expression was still stronger than in the sham-operation group at the 72nd h.At every reperfusion time point,expression of Dkk-1 mRNA and its protein were markedly less in the model plus mild hypothermia group than in the model group. Conclusion Dkk-1 probably participates in the pathologic process of injury caused by focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion.Inhibiting the expression of Dkk-1 after focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion is partly responsible for the neuroprotective effects of mild hypothermia.

Objective To investigate the effect of super-selective intracoronary administration on acute myocardial in farction patients.Methods A total of 240 patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction who received emergency percutaneous coronary intervention in our department from March 2012 to January 2014 were selected and divided into the intravenous drug administration group (n=77),the conventional intracoronary drug administration group (n=81) and the super-selective intracoronary drug administration group (n=82).Parameters,including the Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) classification,ST segment resolution after operation,peak values of creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) and troponin-I (cTn-I),left ventricular ejection fraction,left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD),major adverse cardiovascular events and bleeding events,were compared between the groups.Results There were no significant differences in TIMI flow grade between the three groups (x2 =0.14,P=0.529).The percentage of patients with complete ST segment resolution after operation was higher in the super-selective intracoronary drug administration group than in the intravenous drug administration and conventional intracoronary drug administration groups (74.4% vs.62.3%,61.7%,x2 =8.24,P<0.05).Peak values of CK-MB and cTn-I were lower in the super-selective intracoronary drug administration group than in the other groups (P<0.05).There were no significant differences in left ventricular ejection fraction and LVEDD between the three groups after operation,but left ventricular ejection fraction and the incidence of angina pectoris significantly improved in the super-selective intracoronary drug administration group than in the other groups after a three month follow-up (P<0.05).There were no significant differences in target lesion revascularization,nonfatal myocardial infarction and druginduced thrombocytopenia between the three groups (P > 0.05).Conclusions Super-selective intracoronary drug administration can significantly enhance cardiac function and alleviate angina pectoris in patients with acute myocardial infarction,and should be a recommended method.

Objective To explore the method that can block the infection route from stomach to lung so as to reduce the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in neonates.Methods Neonates with mechanical ventilation were randomly divided into two groups,the treatment group(40 cases) were given probiotics (Bifidobacteria) by nasogastric feeding,control group(40 cases) were given nothing.Prospective survey was performed on the incidence of VAP,gastric juice pH,gastric bacterial colonization,the homology between gastric bacterial colonization and VAP pathogen.Results The VAP incidence of treatment group and control group was 12.5% (5/40) and 47.5% (19/40) respectively,there was significant difference between the two groups ( x2 =10.21,P < 0.01 ).The onset time of VAP in treatment group [ ( 5.4 ±2.1 ) d] was later than that of control group[ (4.3 ± 1.0) d] ( t =3.2,P <0.01 ).The ratio of treatment group that gastric juice dropped to pH≤3 (80.0%,32/40) was higher than that of control group(47.5%,19/40) ( x2 =11.5,P < 0.01 ) ; and the ratio of gastric bacterial colonization in treatment group ( 30.0%,12/40) was lower than that in control group(80.0%,32/40) ( x2 =16.9,P <0.01 ).The homology ratio between VAP pathogen and colonization bacteria in treatment group (40.0%,2/5 ) was lower than that in control group (78.9 %,15/19 ) ( x2 =8.7,P < 0.01 ).Conclusion Probiotics can reduce gastric juice pH of neonates and inhibit gastric bacterial colonization.The onset time of VAP can be delayed,the incidence of VAP can be reduced effectively.
