OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of Oxymatrine on left cardiac function and ventricular remodeling in rabbits after acute myocardial infarction.

METHODSLigation of the left anterior descending artery was adopted to establish acute myocardial infarction model, forty eight rabbits were randomized into the sham operation group, model group and Oxymatrine group. Eight models were successfully established in each group. the sham operation group and model group were given conventional feed. Oxymatrine were gavage administration 0.5 ml/100 g, once a day, lasted for 4 weeks. Respectively in postoperative week, and three weeks, to observe the Oxymatrine on cardiac output (CO), left ventricular end systolic pressure (LVESP), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), left indoor pressure change rate peak (dp/dtmax)), and left ventricular cavity internal diameter (D), ventricular weight index (VWI), ventricular weight (VW).

RESULTSLeft ventricular anterior wall was from red to deep purple, electrocardiogram showed II guide ST-segment camber up ≥ 0.25 mv. Postoperative week in Oxymatrine group compared with model group, LVESP increased significantly (P < 0.01), LVEDP decreased obviously (P < 0.01); After three weeks in Oxymatrine group compared with model group, VW, VWI decreased (P < 0.05), D significantly reduced (P < 0.01); LVESP increased significantly (P < 0.01), LVEDP decreased obviously (P <0.01); dp/dt(max), CO increased (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONAfter acute myocardial infarction in rabbit Oxymatrine can improve the left ventricular reconstruction parameters, increase cardiac output, and improve cardiac function.

Objective To investigate the relationship between Oxfordshire community stroke project(OCSP) classification and imaging classification in acute cerebral infarction. Methods Two hundred and thirty-six patients with acute cerebral infarction were retrospectively evaluated with OCSP classification and imaging characteristics. Results According to OCSP classification,of all the 236 patients with acute cerebral infarction,28(11.9%) experienced total anterior circulation infarction(TACI),71(30.1%) partial anterior circulation infarction(PACI),94(39.8%) lacunar infarction(LACI),and 43(18.2%) posterior circulation infarction(POCI).The consistency was found in 171 cases(72.5%) between the OCSP classification and imaging classification,with the accuracy of 76%(25/33) for TACI,81%(34/42) for PACI,71%(81/114) for LACI and 66%(31/47) for POCI. Conclusion OCSP classification can predict the location and size of cerebral infarction with a high accuracy,and is well consisted with the imaging findings.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the economical efficiency of alogliptin for type 2 diabetes and provide clinical evi-dence for related researches. METHODS:Retrieved from Cochrane Library,Pubmed,EMBase,CNKI,VIP,Wanfang,CBM database up from the start of the database to Mar.,2014,RCTs about alogliptin combined with traditional antidiabetic agents regimen vs. traditional antidiabetic agents regimen in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus were included. Based on the sec-ondary analysis method of literatures,Effectiveness indexes and treatment course were extracted from the literatures,from the perspective of patients,and daily treatment cost was used to calculate the cost;cost-effectiveness analysis was adopted to evalu-ate the economical efficiency of alogliptin combined with traditional antidiabetic agents regimen vs. traditional antidiabetic agents regimen. RESULTS and CONCLUSIONS:6 literatures which met inclusion criteria were included. When alogliptin com-bined with metformin treatment lasted for 12 weeks,the decrease value of HbA1c as effect index showed poor cost-effective-ness;when treatment course increased to 26 weeks,the rate of qualified HbA1c as effect index showed poor cost-effectiveness. When the price of alogliptin decreased by 10% or the effects of trial group was the upper limit of 95%CI,the cost-effective-ness was superior to metformin regimen group. 12 weeks of alogliptin combined with pioglitazone treatment showed better cost-effectiveness than pioglitazone alone using the decrease value of HbA1c as effect;when treatment course increased to 26 weeks,the treatment showed poor cost-effectiveness;when treatment conrse increased to 26 weeks,using the rate of qualified HbA1c as effect indes,the results of sensitirity analysis showed that cost-effectiveness of trial group was better than that of pio-glitazone alone group as the apper limit of 95% CI. When alogliptin combined voglibose treatment lasted for 12 weeks,the de-crease value of HbA1c as effect index showed superior cost-effectiveness to voglibose regimen group. It is suggested to develop alogliptin pharmacoeconomics research based on RCTs and pharmacoeconomics research about improving diabetes patients’ long-term living quality.

Objective To understand the epidemic situation of Hepatitis B of the children and the situation of Hepatitis B vaccine injection in Maanshan city so as to provide the basis for the development of Hepatitis B vaccination strategy or adjustment in all of the people. Methods Two-stage sampling method was designed to survey 978 children under the age of 15 in 8 villages, with 3～5 ml of venous blood brawn and HBVM detected by ELISA. Results HBsAg positive rate of the children under the age of 15 was 10.12% in 1991 and, compared with the present rate at 0.92%, there was a significant difference. The protection rate of Hepatitis B vaccination was 90.91%. HBsAb positive rate of the children under the age of 15 was 40.49%, and the distribution was balanced among regional, urban and rural areas. With the in crease in age, the trend of Hepatitis B antibody levels declined, but the 1～5 age group had lower peak. The survey rate of Hepatitis B vaccine injection of the children under the age of 15 was 91.82%, and the report rate was 87.89%. The regional difference for them was significant. With the in crease in age, the rate of Hepatitis B vaccine injection declined for the survey and the report in all of the children under the age of 15. Conclusions The effect of Hepatitis B Control for 16 years is very significant in the city. It is necessary to administer charge-free Hepatitis B vaccination for the newborns and to strengthen the Hepatitis B vaccination in flowing children.

The HSS found in the cytosol of new-born calf liver was heat-stable and it promoted the DNA-synthesis of guinea-pig liver cells (P/o:5.72),HSS was also found in the cytosol of new-born rat livers,and its most effective concentration to promote incorporation of H2-TdR into DNA of guinea-pig liver cells was about 0.05mg/ml.This activity was reduced with both the increase and decrease of cytosol content,and the reason was not clear.It was proved with SDS-PAGE that the molecular weight of the active component was about 14000 and 23000 daltons.The cytosol from control rat livers showed no HSS activity and also no component measuring 23000 daltons.It needs further identification that the 23000 daltons protein is the active component in the cytosol of new-born calf and rat livers and the partially hepatectomized rat livers,but not in the cytosol of control rat livers.This finding indicateds that the livers of new-born calf and rat contain highly active HSS and are a valuable resource of HSS
