ObjectiveTo explore the dynamic changes of electrocardiography (ECG) in patients with coronary heart disease(CHD) after the percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). MethodsTo compare and analyze the regularity of the changes of 12-lead ECG on 38 cases in times,including one week,three weeks,one month,two and three months after the PCI. ResultsCompared with the ECG before the operation, the occurrences of the low-lying or the bidirectional T-wave were significantly increased,and lasting to 2 ～ 3 weeks after tie operation(5.0％ and 9.6％va2.6％ ,P ＜ 0.05). The ST segment depression( ＞ 1.0mm) and inverted T-wave in the 3 weeks and 2 months after the operation were significantly increased(5.0％ ,5.7％ vs 2.6％ ,P ＜ 0.05 ; 18.0％ and 25.2％ vs 16.2％ ,P ＜0.01 ). After that,the cases of ST segment depression were reduced to the level before PCI,and there was a significant reduction in the cases of the inverted T-wave ( P ＜ 0.01 ). ConclusionsIn the ECG of the patients with CHD after PCI, there were always early one-off abnormal Q-wave, changes of T-wave (inverted or low-lying, bidirectional)and ST segment depressions,etc. After that ,the changes above would turn back to the level before the operation.

OBJECTIVE: To review the recent application of ionic liquid in extraction and separation of biological samples.

Objective To study the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1 ) and Notch signaling pathway downstream gene HES 1 in the hippocampus of pubertal rats with status epilepsy (SE), and to explore the regulation site of HIF-1αin Notch signaling pathway. Methods One hundred and seventy-six 21-day-old SD rats were randomly divided into control group (NS group), pentetrazole (PTZ)-induced SE group (PTZ group), and Notch signaling pathway speciifc inhibitor (DAPT) intervention group (DAPT group). In PTZ group PTZ was intraperitoneally injected to build SE model and in NS group normal saline was injected as control. The intraperitoneal injection of diazepam was used to terminate SE seizures. After successful modeling, the bilateral hippocampuses were isolated after the rats were sacriifced at 0.5, 1, 2, 4 and 8 h, respectively, and RT-PCR was performed to detect the mRNA expression of HES 1 and HIF-1α. The Western Blot was performed to detect protein expression in hippocampuses which were collected at 2 , 4 , 8 , 12 , and 24 h after successful modeling. DAPT group received intraperitoneal injection of DAPT 30 min before the start of molding, then the hippocampuses were isolated at 2 and 8 h after successful modeling. RT-PCR was performed to detect the mRNA expression of HES 1 and HIF-1αat 2 h, and Western blot was performed to detect protein expression at 8 h. Results At each time point after SE, the expression of mRNA of HES 1 and HIF-1αand the expression of protein were higher than the same time point of NS group (P

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of MR fast scanning techniques in fetal congenital diaphragmatic hernia. Methods 12 cases diagnosed or suspected fetal congenital diaphragmatic hernia by ultrasound with gestational age (>20 weeks) were underwent MR examination.The fast scan sequences were as follows:Half-Fourier acquisition single-shot fast spinecho se-quence(HASTE)、True fast imaging steady-state precession sequence (True FISP)、Turbo FLASH T1 WI sequence.The axial,co-ronal and sagittal scanning were focused on fetal head and body.The results of prenatal MR examination was compared with neonatal surgical findings or autopsy results after inducing labor.Results All of 12 cases,9 cases were left diaphragmatic hernia,2 cases were right diaphragmatic hernia and 1 case was hiatal hernia.2 cases of them were complicated with other congenital malformations. The features of MRI were as follows:Some portions of bowels and stomach crossed into the thorax were visible in the HASTE and TRUE FISP sequence.The herniated stomach and bowels showed high or scattered high signals.The intestinal types were visible as well.The lung tissue intruded at the apex of the lung and the heart deviated to the opposite side were demonstrated.T1 weighted im-ages obtained from ultra-fast FLASH (Turbo FLASH)T1WI sequence showed characteristic high signals in the meconium,which delineated clearly the shape of the colon and small intestine.The prenatal MRI results of all cases were consistent with surgical (10 cases)and autopsy (2 cases)findings.Conclusion MR fast scanning techniques can clearly show fetal congenital diaphragmatic her-nia.Multiple sequences scanning can comprehensively map the organizational structure and anatomical relationship of fetal congenital diaphragmatic hernia with the surrounding tissues.MR fast scanning techniques play an important role in the diagnosis of fetal con-genital diaphragmatic hernia.

Objective To discuss the surgical techniques and results of internal fixation supplemented with soft tissue repair of triad injury of the elbow via the combined anterior-lateral approach.Methods A retrospective analysis was done on 15 patients with triad injury of the elbow treated from January 2011 to August 2014.There were 10 males and 5 females,aged 38.4 years (range,20-61 years).Injury resulted from traffic accidents in nine patients,high-level falls in three and groundlevel falls in three.Radial head fractures were Mason type Ⅰ in five patients,type Ⅱ in eight,and type Ⅲ in two.Fractures of the coronoid process of the ulna were Regan-Morrey type Ⅰ in four patients,type Ⅱ in ten and type Ⅲ in one.Time interval between injury and operation was 8.5 d.All patients were firstly operated on through the anterior approach to have Herbert screw fixation or anterior capsule suture lasso fixation of the coronoid fracture as well as Herbert screw fixation of the radial head fracture.And then,elbow lateral incision was made to repair lateral collateral ligament complex and common extensor tendon by 2-0 Ethibon suture.Elbow flexion-extension,forearm pronation-supination and Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS) were used to evaluate the clinical elbow functions.Complications were recorded after operation.Results All patients were followed up for mean 19.6 months (range,12-30 months).All coronoid fractures healed.Radial head fractures in 14 patients healed.Comparison of preoperative to final follow-up variables presented significant differences in elbow flexion-extension [(45.1 ± 5.6) °:(129.5 ± 9.3) °],forearm pronation-supination [(55.4 ±.8.7) °:(140.5 ± 10.3) °] and MEPS [(25.1 ± 9.6) points:(91.2 ± 5.2) points] (P ＜ 0.01).Complications included heterotopic ossification in one patient and nonunion of radial head fracture in one patient.No neurovascular injury of the elbow,elbow residual instability,dislocation,elbow stiffness and active pain occurred.Conclusion Combined anterior-lateral approach with internal fixation and soft tissue repair is a simple and safe method that effectively restore the elbow joint function.

Inflammatory bowel disease is thought to be regulated by the balance between Th1 and Th2 cytokines secreted by T cells, and NF-kappaB p65 also plays a predominant role in the intestinal inflammation. We evaluated the potency of oxymatrine, one of active components of Sophora Root, in inhibiting the immune responses and inflammation in 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis. The inflammation was markedly ameliorated in the oxymatrine-treated rats. The level of IL-2 was increased and that of IL-10 was decreased in colon tissue in the rat model, which was reversed by the treatment of oxymatrine. Moreover, the elevated expression of NF-kappaB p65 in colon tissue in the model was also improved by oxymatrine treatment. Our results suggest that oxymatrine might be beneficial for the abnormal immune responses and inflammation by regulating the unbalance of Th1 and Th2 cytokines secretion and inhibiting the expression of NF-kappaB p65 in colon tissue.

Hypermethylation in the promoter region of tumor suppressor genes is a common mechanism of gene silencing, which tends to occur in cancer. The effects of 5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-Aza-CdR), a specific DNA methyltransferase inhibitor, on the cell proliferation of human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and on the expression of Apaf-1 gene were investigated. Human MCF-7 cells were incubated with increasing concentrations of 5-Aza-CdR for 12 to 120 h. The growth inhibition rates of MCF-7 cells were detected by MTT assay. Changes of cell cycle distribution and apoptotic rates of MCF-7 cells were determined by flow cytometry. The expressions of DNA methyltransferase 3b mRNA and Apaf-1 mRNA were measured by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Meanwhile, the expression of Apaf-1 protein was detected by Western blotting. The results showed that 5-Aza-CdR significantly inhibited the growth of MCF-7 cells and the growth inhibition rate of MCF-7 cells was significantly enhanced with the concentration of 5-Aza-CdR and the action time. Flow cytometry indicated that 5-Aza-CdR could significantly induce G(1)/S cell cycle arrest and increase the apoptosis rate of MCF-7 cells. The mRNA and protein expressions of Apaf-1 were up-regulated in MCF-7 cells treated with 5-Aza-CdR, which was accompanied by down-regulation of DNA methyltransferase 3b mRNA. It is concluded that 5-Aza-CdR might retard the growth of tumor cells and promote the apoptosis of MCF-7 breast cancer cells by inhibiting the expression of DNA methyltransferase 3b and re-activating the Apaf-1 gene expression.
