Objective This study was carried out to reveal the photocatalytic degradation characteristics of Bisphenol A,a representative endocrine disruptor,with immobilized nanometer TiO2 catalyst supported on fiberglass net.Methods The effects of photolysis under black light lamp and cold cathode low-pressure mercury lamp,and initial concentration(0.98-6.23 mg/L) on the degradation of bisphenol A(BPA) was explored by photoreactor in laboratory.Photocatalytic mineralization and intermediates under different irradiations was also investigated.Results It was found that the reaction kinetics was first order with respect to BPA concentration,and the apparent kinetic constants decreased with the increase of initial concentration.Photodecomposition of BPA under black light lamp irradiation was caused by not photolysis but photocatalysis,while that under cold cathode low-pressure mercury lamp was caused by the synergistic effect of photolysis as well as photocatalysis.Further studies showed that photocatalytic mineralization of BPA differed greatly under those different irradiations.1,4-benzoquinone,p-dihydroxybenzene,methyl p-hydroxybenzoate,D-hydroxyacetophehone,1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1-propanone,1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-vinyl alcohol were identified as intermediates under black light lamp,and 3-hydroxyl-3-crotonic acid,4-hydroxybenzaldehyde,D-hydroxyacetophehone,2-acetyl-3-methoxyl-5,8-dihydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone,3,4-di-(4-hydroxyphenyl)hexane were found under cold cathode low-pressure mercury lamp.Conclusion The differences of photocatalytic mineralization under different illumination are attributed to the molecule structure with two benzene-rings.

Objective To investigate the correlation between plasma homoeysteine (HCY) level and coronary-heart disease (CHD). Methods 117 patients with coronary heart disease (CHD group) and 50 healthy controls (control group) were involved in the investigation. Plasma total HCY level was measured with enzymatic cycling assay. According to the clinical types, CHD cases were divide dinto stable angina pectoris (SAP) group (n = 35), unstable angina pectoris (UAP) group (n = 39) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) group (n=43). Based on coronary angiography, the CHD cases were further divided into single-vessel (n = 31 ), double-vessel (n = 40) and triple-vessel (n = 46) groups. Results 1 ) Plasma HCY level was significantly higher in CHD group than that in control group (P<0. 01). 2) Plasma HCY level was associated with clinical types, higherst in AMI group, followed by that of UAP group, SAP group, healthy control group. There was statistical difference of HCY level between SAP group and UAP group, SAP group and AMI group, UAP group and AMI group (P<0. 01). 3) Plasma HCY level was gradually elevated in single-vessel, double-vessel and tri- ple-vessel group. There was statistical difference of HCY level between single-vessel group or double- vessel group and triple-vessel group (P<0.01). There was significant difference between single-vessel group and double-vessel group (P>0.05). Conclusion Plasma HCY level is elevated in patients with CHD, and elevated HCY is associated with increased number of stenotic coronary arteries. As a risk factor for CHD, HCY is closely associated with the occurrence and development of CHD.

Object To study the anti-arrhythmia effect and acute toxicity of flavonoid from Erysimum cheiranthoides L. Methods To study the anti-arrhythmia of the flavonoid by determination of the ECG of rabbits. To study the acute toxicity effect of the flavonoid by Karber's method. Results The results showed that the flavonoid could remedy to tachycardia caused by Adriamycin and it could remedy to bradycardia caused by Verapamil. Acute toxicity showed that LD 50 of flavonoid is 311.7 mg/kg, 95% CI is 289.9—339.5 mg/kg. Conclusion The flavonoid can rectify tachycardia due to various reasons with very little toxicity.

A total of 89 elderly patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction were randomly divided into 2 groups:patients in control group received conventional medication,those in exercise group receive conventional medication plus aerobic exercise training,which was lasted for 6 weeks.The changes in VO2max,maximum heart rate (HRmax),VO2max/HRmax,exercise time,6-minute walk and quality of life (QOL) were evaluated after 16 weeks.The VO2max,HRmax,VO2max/HRmax,exercise time,6-minute walk and QOL had increased significantly in exercise group,compared with the control group.The results indicate that aerobic exercise can improve cardiopulmonary function of elderly patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction.

A design scheme of a tele-screening system for diabetic retinopathy (DR) has been proposed, especially the communication subsystem. The scheme uses serial communication module consisting of ARM 7 microcontroller and relays to connect remote computer and fundus camera, and also uses C++ programming language based on MFC to design the communication software consisting of therapy and diagnostic information module, video/audio surveillance module and fundus camera control module. The scheme possesses universal property in some remote medical treatment systems which are similar to the system.

100 inpatients with heart failure were divided into two groups: 50 with preserved LVEF and 50 with reduced LVEF. Another 50 age-matched healthy subjects served as the control group. The severity and etiology of heart failure, tissue Doppler imaging indexes (Sm;Ea;Aa;E/Ea) and plasma BNP concentrations were compared among the three groups. There was no difference in terms of NYHA classification between groups of preserved LVEF and reduced LVEF. Hypertension and DM are more common in the group of preserved LVEF. The index of Sm decreased most significantly in the group of reduced LVEF, and was negatively correlated with the BNP concentration (r = -0. 35, P < 0. 05 ). The ratio of E/Ea increased gradually among the three groups, and was positively correlated with the BNP concentration ( r = 0. 728, P < 0. 05 ). The LV filling index E/Ea and the BNP concentration may be helpful in the diagnosis of heart failure patients with preserved LVEF.

Objective To prepare Exosomes secreted by mouse hepatoma cell (H_(22)) and heat stressed Exosomes (HS-Exo) derived from heat stress-treated mouse hepatoma cell (H_(22)), in order to study the possible anti-tumor immune mechanism. Methods Exosomes and HS-Exo were purified by serial ultracentrifugation and sucrose density gradiant centrifugation, and were observed and identified by electron microscope. The components and production of the protein and the effects of the host immune response against hepatocellular carcinoma of HS-Exo were observed by using Exosomes as the control. Their immunological factors were detected by Western blot. Lymphocyte proliferation and specific cytotoxic activity of mouse splenic cells were determined by MTT. CD4~+ and CD8~+ lymphocytes infiltration in mouse tumor tissues immunized by both were analysed by immunohistochemical staining. Results HS-Exo was similar in morphology to the Exosomes, the important immune-ralated protein expressed in HS-Exo was increased (P<0.05). HS-Exo immunized mouse group showed more effective inhibition of tumor growth, better-induced lymphocyte proliferation,more significantly enhanced the cytotoxic activity of spleen lymphocytes, as well as a more prominent role in tumor therapy than Exosomes immunized mouse control group (P<0.05). Conclusions Heat stress treatment method for the preparation of HS-Exo was feasible. HS-Exo had a stronger role in the immuneactivity and tumor treatment than control Exosomes.
