In-stent thrombosis after cessation of antiplatelet medications in patients with drug-eluting stents (DES) is a significant problem in medical practice, particularly in the perioperative period. We report a case of an 87-year-old man with a medical history of hypertension, coronary artery disease and chronic atrophic gastritis. Very late thrombosis of a sirolimus-eluting stent occurred 1207 days after implantation, seven months after discontinuation of clopidogrel, and the interruption of aspirin 13 days in preparation of an elective endoscopic gastroin-testinal procedure presented with acute myocardial infarction. The patient was treated with thrombectomy and successfully revascularized with superimposition of two sirolimus-eluting stents. Medications administered in the catheterization laboratory included low molecular weight heparin and nitroglycerin. Flow was defined as grade 2 according to the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction scale. Electrocardio-gram after the procedure revealed persistent, but decreased, ST-segment elevation in the anterolateral leads. The patient recovered and was discharged on aspirin and clopidogrel indefinitely. There was no cardiac event during the two year follow-up period. This case underlines the importance of maintaining the balance of thrombosis and bleeding during perioperation of non-cardiac procedure and the possible need for continuation of aspirin therapy during periendoscopic procedures among patients with low bleeding risks who received DES.

Objective:To explore the correlation among morning blood pressure surge (MBPS) ,ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI) and carotid artery intima‐media thickness (IMT) .Methods :A total of 212 hypertension pa‐tients received 24h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and carotid artery ultrasonography to measure carotid IMT .According to IMT thickened or not ,they were divided into normal IMT group (n=84) and thickened IMT group (n = 128) ,then MBPS and AASI were calculated .According to MBPS existed or not ,patients were divided into MBPS group (n = 120) and no MBPS group (n = 92) ,then the correlation among MBPS ,AASI and carotid IMT were observed .Results : Compared with normal IMT group ,there were significant rise in AASI [ (0.42 ± 0.13) vs .(0.68 ± 0.14)] and MBPS value [ (25.94 ± 4.57) mmHg vs .(36.57 ± 8.41) mmHg] in thickened IMT group , P < 0.05 both ;compared with no MBPS group ,there were significant rise in AASI [ (0.43 ± 0.13) vs .(0.71 ± 0.14)] and IMT [(1.01 ± 0.20) mm vs .(1.25 ± 0.17) mm] in MBPS group ,P < 0.05 both ;Linear correlation analysis indicated that MBPS and AASI were positively correlated with carotid IMT ( r = 1.22 ,0.51 , P < 0.05 both) .Conclusion : Morning blood pressure surge and ambulatory arterial stiffness index are independent risk factors for carotid artery intima‐media thickness ,and they possess predictive value .

Objective:To compare the efficacy on root canal debridement of three ultrasonic units Odontoson-M, P-MAX and Spartan. Methods: Extracted healthy premolars with one single straight canal were used. The canals were prepared by step-down technique. After preparation, the canals were received ultrasonic irrigation and split longitudinally. Debris scores were calculated after photographing with a digital camera. The number of visible open dentinal tubules were evaluated by SEM. Results: At middle third of the canals, when irrigated with 5 g/L NaOCl, the debris score in group Odontoson-M was significantly lower than that in other groups(P

Objective To screen the mimic epitopes of Rh(D)blood group antigens and identify their immunity from phage display peptide library.Methods A twelve mer phage peptide library was biopanned with anti-Rh(D)monoclonal antibody immobilized on plastic surface.After three round panning,thirty-five clones were randomly selected and positive clones were identified by ELISA and cross-reaction,followed by antibody competition inhibition assay and DNA sequencing to obtain the mimic epitopes of Rh (D)blood type antigens.The target phage clones were characterized and the antigenicity was analyzed by Western blot.Results After the third round screening,phages were enriched,and eleven positive clones were obtained.According to sequencing and competition inhibition analysis,the same"-WP-Q-"structure existed in seven of the eleven clones,and they had more than 40%inhibition ratio.The other clones had no same characteristics with low inhibition ratio possibly due to non-specific binding.Western blot analysis indicated that these phage clones could be specifically recognized by the anti-Rh(D)serum and they shared the same antigenicity of Rh(D)protein.Conclusions Rh(D)mimotope of"-WP-Q-"structure is successfully obtained by phage peptide library screening with anti-Rh(D)monoelonal antibody.The results lay the foundation for further exploration of pathogenesis and vaccine development of Rh(D)hemolytic diseases of newborn.

Objective To study the surgical treatment strategy for heamophilic arthropathy and musculoskeletal appara?tus. Methods A total of 120 heamophilic patients underwent 166 primary operations from January 1996 to June 2015 in Pe?king Union Medical College Hospital, with the average age of 29.7±12 years (from 6 to 61 years). Hemophilic type A accounted for 109 patients and hemophilic type B accounted for 11. Eighty?seven patients presented with bleeds within the joints, with 63 cases for knee involved, 29 cases for hip, 11 cases for ankle. Fifteen patients presented with intramuscular bleeds, 21 patients with heamophilic pseudotumors. Strategy of clotting factor replacement therapy was designed according to the different level of opera?tion procedure. The clinical manifestation, operative strategy, clinical outcome and complications were retrospectively recorded. Results 41 cases (34.2%) of patients underwent surgeries for more than one location. Totally, 166 procedures were performed for 120 patients. There were 103 procedures of joint arthroplasty (62.0%, 103/166), 21 procedures of pseudotumor resection (12.7%, 21/166), 15 procedures of tendon lengthening, 12 procedures of ankle arthrodesis, 13 procedures for knee flexion contracture. There were 30 cases of postoperative complications, with the rate of 18.1% (30/166). The coagulation related complication was 4.8%in this group (8/166). The surgical procedure related complication was 7.2%(12/166). All the preoperative symptoms were relieved during the follow?up. Conclusion Surgical treatment was effective for the heamophilic arthropathy and lesion of mus?culoskeletal apparatus, under the reasonable clotting factor replacement therapy. The incidence of perioperative complication in heamophilic patients is higher than that in non?hemophilic patients. Closely inspection was inevitable for perioperative treat?ment in hemophilic patients.
