Objective: To explore the effect of trimetazidine (TMZ) on T-peak (Tp) to T-end (Te) interval of resting ECG in patients with unstable angina pectoris (UAP) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: We investigated 94 UAP patients with PCI and 76 of them ifnished the study as 2 groups. Control group,n=42, the patients received conventional treatment, and TMZ group,n=34, in addition to conventional treatment, the patients received TMZ 60 mg at 0.5 to 1 hour before PCI. The changes of Tp to Te interval before and after PCI were calculated, serum levels of creatine kinase (CK), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) at before and at 6, 24 hours after PCI were compared between 2 groups. Ventricular arrhythmia was recorded during PCI. Results: Both groups had shortened Tp to Te intervals after PCI, and TMZ group had more shortened Tp to Te interval, bothP<0.05, while the Tp to Te intervals were similar between 2 group before PCI,P>0.05. The occurrence rate of ventricular arrhythmia in Control group was higher than that in TMZ group (12.52% vs 5.16%) during PCI,P<0.05. Compared with Control group, TMZ group had lower levels of CK, CK-MB and cTnI at 6, 24 hours after PCI, allP<0.05. Conclusion: TMZ could decrease Tp to Te interval of resting ECG, prevent ventricular arrhythmia and reduce the relevant myocardial injury in UAP patients after PCI.

Objective To investigate the cytotoxic effects of IL-2 combined with different dosages of sorafenib on renal cellular carcinoma cell line 786-0. Methods Renal carcinoma cell 786-0 was cultured. Then , IL-2 (20 μmol/L) combined with different dosages of sorafenib (6.9, 13.8, 20.8 μmol/L) were used to treat tumor cell 786-0. The inhibitory effect on cell proliferation was determined by MTT assay. Cell apoptosis was measured by Annexin V-FITC kit. The tumor-bearing mice models were established and divided into four groups. Results The tumor cell growth was inhibited with the time-course correlation in all groups. In the 48-hour high doses group, the inhibitory rate was up to (74.67±1.87) %. The rates of cell proliferation inhibition and cell apoptosis were higher in the high dosages group than those in the other groups. Conclusions Immunotherapy combined with target therapy could significantly inhibit the growth of renal cellular carcinoma. But we should find a proper dosage, which could improve the clinical effect and reduce the adverse effect.

Objective To explore the protective effect of pre-operation administration of nicorandil on myocardial injury and recurrent angina in patients with unstable angina pectoris who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods A total of 91 patients with unstable angina pectoris were admitted for PCI and randomly divided into 2 groups who either received nicorandil(5 mg tid)or not for 7 days prior to the procedure and routine dose of nicorandil (5mg tid) after it. The concentrations of creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) and cardiac troponin I(cTnI) were compared between two groups before PCI and 6 hours, 18 hours and 24 hours after PCI;Recurent angina and major adverse cardiac events,includ-ing death,re-infarction and stroke at 6 months after the procedure were also chased and compared. Results In total, 75 pa-tients who were successfully undergone elective PC1 were finally enrolled,among whom 37 cases were in nicorandil group and 38 cases were in routine group. Post-procedural levels of CK-MB and cTnI significantly reduced in the nicorandil group between 6~24 h (P<0.05) compared those in routine group.At 6 months follow-up,symptoms of recurrent angina after PCI were significantly relieved in the nicorandil group compared with that in routine group (P < 0.05).Conclusion nicorandil can limit the PCI-induced myocardial injury and relieve the symptoms of recurrent angina after PCI in patients with unstable angina.

Objective To analyze the correlation between emphysema extent measured by high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) and pulmonary function tests, symptom score in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD ) , and to study the value of HRCT in the emphysema quantification in the clinical evaluation of COPD patients. Methods 78 patients with stable COPD were recruited to take the HRCT scan , and emphysema extent was qualified by measuring the proportion of low attenuation area in the whole lung (LAA%). Correlations between LAA% and indices of pulmonary function test, bronchial dilation test, mMRC scale, CAT score and six minutes walking distance (6MWD) were assessed. Results LAA% was negatively correlated with FEV1/FVC and DLCO%pred, and the correlation coefficients were -0.759 and -0.589 (P <0.01), respectively. LAA% was positively related to mMRC score (r = 0.342, P < 0.01), and negatively asso-ciated with 6MWD (r = -0.365,P< 0.01). There was no association between LAA% and indices of bronchodila-tion test (⊿FVC, ⊿FVC%, ⊿FEV1, ⊿FEV1%) (P > 0.05). Conclusions The severity of emphysema measured by HRCT is well correlated with the clinical symptoms , pulmonary function tests and exercise capacity in COPD patients. It can be used to diagnose emphysema early and to evaluate the severity of the disease com-prehensively. Thus, the risk factors of COPD can be controlled and the prognosis of the patients can be im-proved.

Objective To compare the predictive value of 5 scoring systems for hemorrhagic transformation risk after intravenous thrombolysis in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in different therapeutic windows.Methods A single-center and retrospective study was performed for 243 AIS patients who underwent intravenous thrombolysis using recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) in different therapeutic windows in our department during January 2014 and December 2016.Five scoring systems,including HAT model (hemorrhage after thrombolysis),MSS model (multicenter stoker survey),GRASPS model (glucose at presentation,race,age,sex,systolic blood pressure at presentation,severity of stroke at presentation),SEDAN model (baseline blood sugar,early infarct signs,hyperdense cerebral artery sign on admission CT,age,NIHSS on admission),and SITS model (safe implementation of thrombolysis in strokemonitoring study) were used to evaluate the risks for hemorrhagic transformation.The relationships between the 5 scoring systems and incidence rate of hemorrhagic transformation were analyzed among the patients in different therapeutic windows.The predictive values of the 5 scoring systems were compared using the areas (AUC) under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results When the AIS patients were treated by intravenous thrombolysis within 3 h,the AUC of GRASPS and HAT models were 0.698 and 0.619,respectively,higher than those of the other 3 systems.When the therapeutic window was between 3 to 4.5 h,HAT model and SEDAN model had highest AUC (0.719,0.744) than the other 3 systems (P <0.05).When the windows were >4.5 ~6 h,the HAT model had the highest AUC (0.676).Conclusion The 5 scoring systems show better predictive value for hemorrhagic transformation after intravenous thrombolysis.For the therapeutic window within 4.5 h,HAT model presents best predictive value than the other 4 scoring systems.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical significance of heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP) in acute myocardial infarction(AMI) patients. MethodsThe level of H-FABP was assayed within 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h,6 h and 12 h by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 46 AMI patients, and cardiac troponin Ⅰ(cTnⅠ) and creatinine kinase(CK-MB) also was assayed by routine method.The diagnostic accuracy was compared among different methods. ResultsThe diagnostic accuracy of H-FABP[95.7% (44/46)] was significantly higher than cTnⅠ[65.2%(30/46)] and CK-MB[41.3% (19/46)](P <0.05). The levels of H-FABP, cTnⅠ and CK-MB significantly increased after AMI onset 4,6,12 hrespectively. ConclusionThe diagnosticaccuracy of H-FABP is higher and can be used as a parameter for the early diagnosis of AMI.
