ObjectiveTo analyze the significance of serum hyper sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP),lipoprotein (a) [ Lp(a) ] and total cholesterol (TC)/high density lipoprotein cholesterol ( HDL-C )in coronary heart disease.Methods From September 2010 to September 2011,the levels of serum hs-CRP,Lp (a) and TC/HDL-C were detected in 176 patients of coronary heart disease (coronary heart disease group ) and 60 healthy controls (control group).Coronary heart disease group included acute myocardial infarction with 56 cases,stable angina with 58 cases and unstable angina with 62 cases.ResultsThe levels of serum hs-C RP,Lp ( a ) and TC/HDL-C in coronary h cart disease group were (34.51 ± 9.65 ) mg/L,(295.16 ±104.57) mg/L and 4.23 ±0.91,while those in control group were (1.26 ±0.69) mg/L,(145.26 ±42.19)mg/L and 2.54 ± 0.57.There were significant differences between two groups (P ＜ 0.05 ).The levels of serum hs-CRP,Lp(a) and TC/HDL-C in acute myocardial infarction patients were significantly higher than those in unstable angina patients and stable angina patients (P ＜ 0.05).The levels of serum hs-CRP,Lp (a) and TC/HDL-C in unstable angina patients were significantly higher than those in stable angina patients(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Serum hs-CRP,Lp (a) and TC/HDL-C are significantly increased in coronary heart disease,and can reflex the severity of coronary heart disease.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of umbilicus application withDa Huang (Rheum Officinale) during 5-7 a.m. in treating senile constipation after hip fracture.Method Fifty-nine elderly patients with constipation after hip fracture were randomized into a treatment group of 30 cases and a control group of 29 cases. The treatment group was intervened by umbilicus application withDa Huang (Rheum Officinale) during 5-7 a.m, while the control group was by umbilicus application withDa Huang (Rheum Officinale) at any time but avoiding 5-7 a.m. period. After a treatment course, the therapeutic efficacy was evaluated based on bowel movement frequency and shape of stool, and the two groups were compared with each other.Result The total effective rate and markedly-effective rate were respectively 93.3% and 70.0% in the treatment group versus 82.8% and 37.9% in the control group. The between-group difference in the total effective rate was statistically insignificant (P>0.05); there was a significant difference in comparing the markedly-effective rate between the two groups (P<0.01).Conclusion Umbilicus application withDa Huang (Rheum Officinale) during 5-7 a.m. is an effective method in treating senile constipation after hip fracture.

Objective To characterize the human cell mediated immune response to Treponema pallidum(TP), and to determine the effect of TP infection on the various lymphocyte subpopulations and natural killer cells in the peripheral blood of the patients. Methods Twenty four untreated patients with early syphilis were analyzed,including 3 groups of 8 patients with disseminated syphilides,palmoplantar syphilides and latent syphilis each. Monoclonal antibodies of CD labeled with either fluorescein isothiocyanate or phycoerythrin were used on a flow cytometry to detect the changing of peripheral blood lymphocyte immunophenotypes. Results The results showed that the percentages of panT,T H,NK cells and the ratio of T H/T S were significantly lower (P0.05). Conclusion It suggests that there is prominent suppression of cellular immunity in the untreated patients suffering from early syphilis. Meanwhile, the difference of 3 groups in skin lesions was due to the different dermatobarrier function against the systemic invasion of TP, rather than attributed to the alteration of the lymphocyte immunophenotypes in the peripheral blood.

Objective To study the clinical, histological and immunohistochemical features of breast hamartomas. Methods The specimens were fixed in 10% formalin and embedded in paraffin. The sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin for histological diagnosis. SP technique was used in the immunohistochemical study.Results We have 8 cases of breast hamartomas with well defined borders microscopically, histologically composed of ducts, lobules, fibrous stroma, adipose tissue. None of the epithelial elements showed any evidence of atypia. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that there was a variable number of epithelial cells showing a nuclear staining for estrogen receptor(ER) in all cases.Conclution Mammary hamartomas are benign tumor like lesions, histologically dissimillar from other breast tumors. It is affected by hormonal factors. The diagnosis is achieved by combining clinical, radiological and pathologic results.

Objective To investigate the brain protection of adenosine preconditioning in infants with tetralngy of Fallot (TOF) undergoing open heart surgery. Methods 120 patients with TOF undergoing open heart surgery were randomly divided into two groups: adenosine group and control group. Total dosage of 1.5 mg/kg adenosine was intravenously dripped in the adenosine group before the cardiopulmonary bypass. Serum S-100β and neurone specific enolase (NSE) were measured before the cardipulminary bypass, 30 min and 12 hours after the aorta off clamping. Results At 30 min and 12 hour after opening the aorta, the S-100β[(0. 346±0. 162)μg/L vs. (0.717±0.260) μg/L and (0.541±0.272) μg/L vs. (1.140±0.567) μg/L,P <0.001 ]and NSE[(10.43±5.54) μg/L vs. (15.75±7.96)μg/Land (15.54±7. 98)μg/L vs. (23.67±8.00)μg/L,P<0.001]were both lower in adenosine group than that in control group. Conclusion Adenosine preconditioning can reduce the S-100β and NES in infants with TOF undergoing open heart surgery and has brain protection.

Objective To explore the action mechanism and clinical significance of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T (Treg) cells in the development of atopic dermatitis (AD). Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were obtained from 46 patients with AD and 20 normal human controls. Flow cytometry was performed to detect the number of CD4+CD25+ Treg cells, real-time fluorescence PCR assay to measure the Foxp3 mRNA level in PBMC, ELISA to determine the serum levels of IL-2, IL-4, IL-10 and IFN-γ. Results A statistical decrease was observed in the percentages of peripheral CD4+CD25+ Treg cells among CD3+ T cells and CD4+ T cells in AD patients compared with normal controls (t' = 3.775, 4.533, both P＜ 0.01 ), and in the percentage of peripheral CD4+CD25+ Treg cells among CD3+ T cells in patients with acute AD compared with those with chronic AD (t = 2.217, P ＜ 0.05), but no significant difference was noted between patients with acute AD and those with subacute AD or between those with subacute AD and those with chronic AD in the percentage of peripheral CD4+CD25+ Treg cells among CD3+ T cells (t = 1.558, 0.49, both P ＞ 0.05). The mRNA level of Foxp3 in PBMC from AD patients was statistically decreased compred with that from normal controls (z =-2.368, P ＜ 0.05 ). The count of CD4+CD25+ Treg cells was positively correlated with serum levels of IL-2 and IL-10 (r = 0.512, 0.494, both P ＜ 0.05), but had no significant correlation with serum levels of IL-4 and IFN-γ (r = -0.110, -0.237, both P ＞ 0.05). Conclusions In AD patients, there is a decrease in the count of CD4+CD25+ Treg cells and in the level of Foxp3 mRNA, which may suppress the proliferation of and secretion of Foxp3 mRNA by Th2 cells, lead to Th2 predominance, participate in the development of AD.

A novel HPLC-CAD method coupled with on-line solid phase extraction ( SPE ) for the determination of erythrocin which was widely used in livestock farming was developed. After mixed with diatomite, 5. 0 g manure sample was put into the cell and extracted with hot water at 70℃ and 10. 3 MPa. An on-line SPE methodology was applied to pre-treat the sample, and the sample was seperated on an Acclaim 120 C18 column and analyzed by corona CAD detector using acetonitrile and 0. 1% formic acid as mobile phase. Good linearity for erythrocin was obtained in the range of 21-2000 μg/kg. The detection limit was 6. 3 μg/kg. The average recoveries were 79. 2%-87. 5%.
