Objective To assess the value of corrected TIMI frame count(CTFC) in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI) underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) and the change of CTFC before and after adenosine interference. Methods CTFC was defined as the number of cineframes from coronary filling with radiographic reagent to visualization of distal coronary landmark in the infarct-related artery. Normal antegrade flow was 0.05), and CTFC of the patients with slow antegrade flow, who underwent PCI, was not significantly different before and after administering adenosine. LVEF of the patients with normal antegrade flow was significantly higher than that of the patients with slow antegrade flow(P=0.001). MACE of the patients with slow blood flow were obviously higher than that of the patients with natural blood flow(P

Objective To investigate the relationship between tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-?), endothelin(ET) and Interleukin-6(IL-6) plasma level of coronary heart disease(CHD) patients and the type of the coronary plaque morphology.Methods Peripheral blood samples were taken from 230 CAG confirmed CHD patients and the same number of CAG normal patients.Serum TNF-?,ET and IL-6 values were measured through enzyme-labeled immunosorbent assay(ELISA) technique in the 2 groups and their relationship between coronary plaque morphology were assesed.Results The mean levels of serum TNF-?,ET and IL-6 in the CHD group were higher than those of the normal group(P

Objective To observe the change of C-reactive protein (CRP), Interleukin-6(IL-6) plasma levels before and after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) in angina pectoris patients to evaluate the relationships between the severity of coronary lesions, CRP and IL-6. Methods 36 patients diagnosed as angina pectoris by coronary angiography received PCI and 15 healthy subjects served as the control. Peripheral blood samples were taken before and after PCI, the serum levels of CRP and IL-6 were measured by ELISA. The relationships between serum CRP,IL-6 and the severity of coronary lesions were analyzed. Results The mean levels of serum CRP and IL-6 in the patients were higher than those in the control(P

After the characteristic resources databases developed in Library of Guangxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were analyzed in aspects of their contents and architectures, their problems were pointed out and suggestions were put forward for their solution, such as perfecting its users-oriented contents and architecture, con-structing qualified digital professionals , and giving its publicity .

Objective: To investigate the mechanisms of curative effect of Tongxinluo capsule(通心络胶囊) on patients with coronary artery disease and angina pectoris.Methods: One hundred and twelve cases in accord with the diagnostic criteria of coronary heart disease of World Health Organization(WHO) were(randomly) divided into two groups: treatment group(n=60) and control group(n=52).The patients in both groups were treated with routine therapy including ?receptor retardant and ester of nitric acid etc.(Additionally),the treatment group was treated with Tongxinluo capsules,2 capsules each time and 2 times(per day) for 2 months consecutively.The clinical manifestations before and after treatment,the changes of(electrocardiogram)(ECG),microcirculation of nail bed and hemorrheology were observed in all the patients in both groups.Results: The total clinical effective rate and the rate of total improvement in ECG changes were 86.67% and 80.00% respectively after treatment in the treatment group,and compared with the control group(78.85% and 69.23%) the differences were significant(both P

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of sodium ozagrel on nail microcirculation and hemorrheology in patients with myocardial infarction (MI).Methods128 MI cases were randomly divided into the treatment group (group A, n=68) and control group (group B, n=60). On the base routine treatment, patients of group A were treated with sodium ozagrel (80～160 mg/d) and those of group B were treated with glucose-insulin-potassium solution (250～500 ml/d). The changes of nail microcirculation and hemorrheology were measured in pre-treatment and post-treatment.ResultsThe nail microcirculation and hemorrheology in group A were significantly better than group B (P<0.01).ConclusionSodium ozagrel can markedly improve nail microcirculation and hemorrheology in patients with MI.

Objective:To investigate whether anxiety state and anxiety trait modulate specifically pain-induced brain responses by comparing the brain activations induced by painful stimulation and those by tactile stimulation in college students with different levels of anxiety state or anxiety trait.Methods:From April 2017 to September 2017, sixty-two college students were tested in Tianjin Medical University General Hospital.Each subject’s anxiety trait and anxiety state were assessed by the state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI) prior to the fMRI experiment.During the fMRI experiment, each subject received painful and tactile stimuli.Their brain responses to each stimulus were collected by the MRI scanner, and the perceived intensity rating of each stimulus was collected using the visual analogue scale (VAS). The pain and tactile brain activation values of subjects with different state anxiety levels and different trait anxiety levels were compared.The fMRI brain activation was detected using general linear model.For each type of anxiety (state or trait), two-way ANOVA was performed to detect the interaction between anxiety level and stimulus modality on brain responses and two-sample t-tests were performed to analyze the specific form of interaction in each brain region. Results:There were interactions between state anxiety and stimulation modality on the activation intensity of bilateral posterior parietal lobe, dorsolateral prefrontal lobe and other brain regions( P<0.05, cluster-level FWE corrected) .The brain responses to tactile stimuli (5.66±0.65) in these areas were significantly stronger than those to painful stimuli (1.24±0.55) in the group of middle-level anxiety state ( P<0.001), but no significant difference was found in the other two groups (both P>0.05). For anxiety trait, a few brain areas in bilateral occipital cortex showed significant interactions between anxiety level and stimulus modality.The brain responses to tactile stimuli (8.38±1.00) in these areas were significantly stronger than those to painful stimuli (3.19±1.12) in the group of high-level anxiety trait ( P=0.001), but no significant difference was found in the other two groups (both P>0.05). Conclusion:The modulatory effects of anxiety (both state and trait) on brain responses are different between painful and tactile conditions.It provides important evidence for unveiling the brain mechanisms of the specific modulation of anxiety on pain, and suggests that patients' anxiety trait and anxiety state should be considered during clinical treatment of pain.
