Objective To compare the clinical effect of unarmed cardiopulmonary resuscitationand cardiopulmonary resuscitationmachine in the emergency room.Methods One hundred cases patients with cardiopulmonary arrest in Hainan Agricultural Reclamation General Hospital from February 2014 to February 2016 were analyzed.The control group(n=50) were given unarmed cardiopulmonary resuscitation,while thetest group(n=50) were given ardiopulmonary resuscitation machine.Two groups' before and after cardiopulmonary resuscitation of arterial blood gas index(oxygen saturation (SaO2),C02 partial pressure (PaC02),oxygen partial pressure(Pa02)),cardiopulmonary resuscitation effectiveness and the success rate,and complications were compared.Results Before cardiopulmonary resuscitation,there were no significant differences on arterial blood gas index (SaO2,PaCO2,PaO2) between the two groups (t =0.069,0.097,0.121,P ＞ 0.05).After cardiopulmonary resuscitation,the SaO2,PaO2 of the test group were higher than that of the control group ((98.60± 8.51) ％ vs.(86.37 ± 7.84) ％,(13.84 ± 1.40) kPa vs.(8.69± 1.21) kPa),while PaCO2 of test group was lower than the control group ((3.24 ± 0.56) kPa vs.(6.41 ± 0.87) kPa),the differences were significant(t =7.474,21.665,19.679,P ＜ 0.05).The cardiopulmonary resuscitation of effective rate,success rate of test group were higher than the control group (84.00％ (42/50) vs.62.00％ (31/50),26.00％ (13/50)vs.10.00％(5/50),x2=6.139,4.336,P＜0.05).The total complication rate of the test group was lower than the control group(8.00％ (4/50) vs.28.00％ (14/50)),the difference was significant (x2 =6.775,P ＜0.05).Conclusion The clinical effect of cardiopulmonary resuscitation machine is significantly superior to unarmed cardiopulmonary resuscitation,which can effectively improve the patient's arterial blood gas state,improve the efficiency and success rate of cardiopulmonary resuscitation,and reduce the complications.

Objective To explore the effect of combined use of antiplatelet drugs on late-onset bleeding in elderly patients after high frequency electric resection of the colon polyps on colonoscopy.Methods Data with late-onset bleeding after high frequency electric resection of the colon polyps on colonoscopy were collected from 64 elderly patients using antiplatelet drugs from January 2010 to December 2013.Those 64 elderly patiets using antiplatelet drugs were divided into aspirin,clopidogrel,and aspirin + clopidogrel groups.The clinical situation,blood-coagulation time,bleeding-occurrence time,emergency colonoscopy hemostatic rate of demand,and hemostatic time in hospital were analyzed.Results No statistically significant differences were found in the blood-coagulation time,bleeding-occurrence time,and hemostatic time in hospital among aspirin,clopidogrel,and aspirin + clopidogrel groups.However,the clinical situation,and emergency colonoscopy hemostatic rate of demand in aspirin + clopidogrel group were significantly more serious and higher than those of the aspirin or clopidogrel groups (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions There are more serious clinical situation and higher emergency colonoscopy hemostatic demand in patients with combined use of antiplatelet drugs relative to the use of single antiplatelet drug.The clinicians should pay attention to the combined use of antiplatelet drugs for late-onset bleeding in elderly patients after high frequency electric resection of the colon polyps on colonoscopy.

Objective To investigate the role and mechanism of signal transducer and activator of transcription 4 (STAT4) in homocysteine (Hcy)-induced proliferation,migration and senescence of human aorta smooth muscle cells (VSMCs).Methods After VSMCs were incubated with Hcy (0-0.50 mmol/L) for various time periods,a CCK-8 assay was performed to determine proliferation activity.Modified Boyden chamber system (Transwell apparatus) was used to examine migration ability.A SA-β-gal staining kit was used to determine senescence status.Western blotting was performed to examine the expressions of STAT4 and phosphorylated STAT4 (p-STAT4) proteins,and ELISA was performed to examine MCP-1 expression.Results Hcy (from 0.05 mmol/L) significantly increased the proliferation of VSMCs (P ＜ 0.05).Hcy (from 0.10 mmol/L) significantly increased the migration of VSMCs (P ＜ 0.05).Hcy promoted the senescence of VSMC in a concentration-dependent manner,and significantly increased VSMC senescence when the concentration of Hcy reached 0.10 mmol/L (P ＜ 0.05).Hcy (from 0.10 mmol/L) treatment significantly increased the expression of p-STAT4 (P ＜ 0.05) and MCP-1 (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Hcy increases the proliferation,migration and senescence of VSMCs,probably by the activation of STAT4 pathway.

Objective To investigate the missing rate of polypus with colonoscopy and correlation factors for missed diagnosis.Methods Data with colorectal polyps collected a second colonoscopy within 180 days after polyps were detected and removed on the initial colonoscopy in 186 patients between July 2009 and June 2013.The following factors were statistically analyzed,including lesionrelated factors (the lesion size,location,shape,number,and pathology),and non-lesion-related factors (intestinal cleanliness,colonoscopy post-set time,colonoscopy operator experience,and whether colonoscopy with sedation).Results Polypus missed diagnosis was found in 57 patients out of 186 recruited subjects (30.64％).A total of 76 polypus were missed out of 343 (22.16％) polypus detected by repeated colonoscopy.Flat small polyps were easily missed diagnosis (P ＜ 0.01).Polyps located at sigmoid,cecum and ascending colon,hepatic flexure,and splenic flexure were easily missed diagnosis (P ＜0.05).The rate of missed diagnosis was significantly increased in the condition of the low intestinal cleanliness,short colonoscopy post-set time,non-intravenous anesthesia,and beginner colonoscopy doctors (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions A markedly missing rate of polyp existed on colonoscopy,and was closely related to the lesion-related factors (the lesion size,location,shape,number,and pathology) and the non-lesion-related factors (the intestinal cleanliness,colonoscopy post-set time,colonoscopy operator experience,and whether colonoscopy with sedation).

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia( BPD) is a chronic lung disease that commonly occurs in pre-term. Since the 1980s,with the advances in perinatal care,survival rate of preterm has been raised,while BPD continues to be a significant cause of morbidity and mortality for premature infants. However,the treatment effect of BPD is unsatisfactory. It is urgent to search for innovative ways to reduce the respiratory injury that caused by BPD as well as to improve the quality of life. In recent years,mesenchymal stem cells′( MSC) research has pro-vided a new way for the treatment of BPD. This review primarily summarizes the current status of the MSC ther-apies and its possible mechanism on BPD.

Objective To establish the ranges of normal reference values of fetal brainstem-vermis angle (BVA)and brainstem-tentorium angle (BTA)in normal fetuses at different gestational weeks,and to evaluate their clinical values in the diagnosis of mega cisterna magna.Methods Totally 320 normal singleton fetuses between 1 8 and 40 weeks of gestation were enrolled in this study.Three-dimensional ultrasound (3DUS)with volume contrast imaging (VCI)was used to measure their BVA and BTA,the correlations of BVA and BTA with gestational age were analyzed.The BVA and BTA of 24 fetuses with mega cisterna magna were also measured and were compared with those of the normal fetuses.Results In these normal fetuses,the BVA and BTA showed no correlations with gestational age (r=-0.05,0.04,both P >0.05);the ranges of normal reference values of BVA and BTA were 2.23°-19.30°and 18.53°-48.13°, respectively.The BVA and BTA of 24 fetuses with mega cisterna magna were 4.23°-17.42°and 20.41°-40.89°,respectively,which were not significantly different from those of normal fetuses (t =-0.55,0.92, both P >0.05).Conclusions 3DUS with VCI is feasible for measuring the BVA and BTA of fetuses,and the measured values can be used as the reference standards for BVA and BTA measurement in China.

Objective To assess the relationship between fat metabolic parameters and androgen concentration in the cord blood of newborns of mothers with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Methods This cross-sectional study included PCOS women (n=55) and neonatal, and 40 cases with matched body mass index (BMI) were used as control. The clinical data including height, body mass, waist circumference, hip circumference of PCOS group, and length and head circumference in newborns after delivery were measured and compared. Blood lipid level, serum insulin and testosterone level were detected using umbilical artery-vein mixed cord blood after delivery. Regression analysis was used to analyze the influence factors of neonatal cholesterol and testosterone levels. Results The neonatal birth weight, head circumference, cholesterol, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride level were significantly lower, birth height and testosterone level were significantly higher, in PCOS group than those of control group (P＜0.05). Values of waist to hip ratio, BMI, cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and testosterone levels were significantly higher in PCOS group than those of control group (P＜0.05). The insulin, cholesterol and triglyceride levels of PCOS mother were risk factors for neonatal cholesterol level(P ＜ 0.05). The cholesterol, triglyceride and free testosterone levels of PCOS mother were risk factors for increased neonatal free testosterone (P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion Mother with PCOS may affect fetal birth weight, head circumference and cord blood lipid metabolism, which may be related with the elevated level of testosterone during the fetal period.

The performance appraisal (PA) system establishment in scientific research institutes on traditional Chi-nese medicine (TCM) plays an important role in the management of TCM research work, which can set up both well-defined guidance and favorable appraisal regimen for scientific researchers, so that leads to the accomplishment of the scientific objectives. However, current PA system establishment has fallen seriously behind the real demand in most TCM research institutes. As a result, there is a serious lack of a mature, efficient, standardized, propagable PA system in TCM research field. In this paper, we tried to discuss the current situation and key issues in building modern PA system in TCM research institutes. The PA system development in scientific research institutes on TCM was pointed out. The PA system should be based on existed referenced similar platforms, with full consideration on professional features and Chinese culture. The PA system establishment should be with most science, systematicness, objectivity, and guidance. The PA system should also be established to evaluate the scientific researchers equitably, guide the scientific trend, provide proper institute, and promote scientific research.

Objective To investigate correlations of hyperuricemia and matrix metalloproteinase -9 level with left ventricular remodeling in patients with type 2 diabetes and the clinical effect of intervention for hyperuricemia.Methods 100 type 2 diabetic patients with hyperuricemia in our hospital from June 2011 to June 2012 were selected as hyperuricemia group,50 type 2 diabetic cases with normal uric acid were considered as DM group.Levels of blood glucose,blood lipids,glycosylated hemoglobin and matrix metalloproteinase-9 were detected.All patients underwent echocardiography.Patients in hyperuricemia group were randomly divided into treatment group (receiving allopurinol and alkaline urine-alkalify therapy added to hypoglycemic treatment,n=50) and control group (receiving hypoglycemic treatment,n=50).After 6 months of treatment,levels of blood glucose,blood lipids,glycosylated hemoglobin,matrix metalloproteinase-9 and echocardiography were rechecked.Results The levels of triglyceride (TG),blood uric acid,MMP-9,left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWT),interventricular septal thickness (IVST) and left ventricular mass index (LVMI) were increased in hyperuricemia group versus DM group[(2.3±0.5) mmol/L vs.(1.6±0.30) mmol/L,(498.9±32.5) μmol/L vs.(322.8±35.6) μmol/L,(765±38) g/L vs.(420±26) pg/L,(11.0±1.1) mm vs.(9.2±0.8) mm,(11.5±1.6) mm vs.(10.1±1.1) mm,(138.7±35.6) g/m2 vs.(115.0±10.4)g/m2,t=4.945,5.124,4.895,3.985,3.965,3.989,respectively,all P＜0.05].Levels of TG,blood uric acid,MMP,LVPWT,IVST were decreased in treatment group after treatment versus before treatment [(1.6±0.5) mmol/L vs.(2.3±0.6) mmol/L,(323.0±30.5) μmol/L vs.(496.6±32.6) μmol/L,(766±34) pg/L vs.(410±25)pg/L,(9.1±0.8) mm vs.(11.0±1.1) mm,(9.2±1.1) mm vs.(11.6±1.5) mm,(116±10.5)g/m2 vs.(138.8±35.2) g/m2,t=3.386,4.525,4.865,3.256,3.895,3.985,all P＜0.05].Correlation analysis showed that LVMI had positive correlations with levels of blood uric acid,TG,MMP-9 (r=0.435,0.348,0.356,respectively).Conclusions Hyperuricemia involves in left ventricular remodeling,and therapeutic intervention on the hyperuricemia can reverse this remodeling.
