Objective:To explore the influence of different blood glucose level at hospitalization on no-reflow and prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI),but without diabetes after emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:A total of 678 non-diabetic AMI patients undergoing PCI were selected.Ac-cording to blood glucose level at hospitalization,patients were divided into normal group (n=312),blood glucose level higher group (higher group ,n=201)and blood glucose level extremely high group (extremely high group,n=165).Clinical characteristics,no-reflow after PCI and incidence of cardiovascular events within 30d after PCI were compared among three groups.Results:Compared with normal group and higher group,there were significant rise in age,percentages of >1 location of myocardial infarction and Killip's ≥ class II,white blood cell count instant af-ter hospitalization,peak value of creatine kinase (CK)and CK-isoenzyme (CK-MB)in extremely high group,P <0.01 all;Compared with normal group,the age,peak value of CK and CK-MB significantly rose in higher group (P<0.01 all).Along with blood glucose rose,incidence rate of no-reflow significantly increased (17.0% vs.38.8%vs.49.7%),left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)on 30d after PCI gradually reduced [(68.6± 5.7)% vs. (62.2±6.4)% vs.(55.6±6.9)%]in above-mentioned 3 groups in turn,there was significant difference between any two groups,P <0.05 or <0.01.Conclusion:Stress hyperglycemia possesses great influence on no-reflow and prognosis in non-diabetic AMI patients after PCI.

Aim To research the synergistic effect of hyperlipoproteinemia and Aβ in the processing of Alzheimer′s disease.Methods Seventy SD rats were randomly divided into seven groups, and dealt with D-gal(hypodermic injection), hyperlipemia diet, microinjection into both side of CA1 section in hippocampus, independently.Morris water maze(MWM) test was used to evaluate the spatial memory impairments.Tau and tau(pThr181) pathology in the hippocampus were detected using Western blot and immunohistochemistry.Nissl′s staining was used to detect cell apoptosis.Results Aβ25-35-treated rats showed significant impairments of spatial memory in MWM test, especially in the group of D-gal+Aβ25-35+HLD(P<0.01).Furthermore, these rats treated with Aβ25-35, D-gal, and hyperlipemia diet, exhibited significantly increased phosphorylation of tau, particularly in the Thr181 site.Conclusion Hyperlipoproteinemia is the risk factor for older person, which could strengthen the toxic effect of Aβ, and promote phosphorylation of tau.

Objective To evaluate specific clinical and imaging features of osteogenesis imperfecta V and to improve diagnostic accuracy of this disease. Methods Data of 15 patients with osteogenesis imperfecta type V were retrospectively analyzed for their clinical and imaging features. There were 10 males and 5 females, aged from 1 year and 30 years old (median age,12.5 years ). All 15 patients had plain X-ray, and 4 of 15 had CT. All data were analyzed by 3 experienced deputy chief doctors in OI according to OI V standard. Results X-ray:calcification of the interosseous membrane between radius-ulna was detected in all patients and calcification of the interosseous membrane between tibia-fibula was detected in 2 of 15 patients. Dislocation of the radial head was seen in 13 of 15 patients,bilateral in 9 and utilateral in 4.All patients showed restriction in the pronation and supination of the forearm and restricton in the flexion and extention of the elbow joint. Patients with dislocation of raidal head were associated with large coronoid process and olecranon of the ulna. Hyperplastic callus of the extremities were detected in 7 of 15 patients (7 at femur , 3 at humerus, 1 at tibia.In early stage, hyperplastic callus showed thin cortice, and clear boundares with the diaphysis showing and low density, irregular, mesh-like lamellation inside. In the later stage, there were dense calcification inside hyperplastic callus, and no difference in density with the diaphysis. Diaphysis surrounded by hyperplastic callus had clear boundaries with the hyperplastic callus. No cortical destruction was detected. CT:there were sparse needle-dot calcification inside hyperplastic callus, with the patterns of granular, ring-and-arch,irregular streaky mineralization. The cross section of proximal femoral shaft showed irregular shape , flat square shape and tiny medullary cavity, with no calcification on the edge of hyperplastic callus. CT value:-91 HU inside hyperplastic callus; 283 HU in femoral shaft. Conclusions Interosseous membrane between radius-ulna or tibia-fibula, hyperplastic callus ,dislocation of the radial head are specific features in osteogenesis imperfecta V. X-ray can make a definitive diagnosis of osteogenesis imperfecta V. CT scan is helpful in the differential diagnosis of osteogenesis imperfecta V from osteosarcoma.
