Objective To evaluate the status of P-selectin and platelet activating factor(PAF) in vivo in patients with deep venous thrombosis(DVT) and to observe their changes under interneving of medicines.Methods P-selectin and PAF of fourty patients and twenty normal subjects were fluorescence labled with corresponding monoclonal antibodies by flow cytometry( FCM ) and immunologic method respectively. Results P-selectin and PAF in patients with DVT were higher than that in normal subjects in early period of the disease, and they significantly decreased in different time after patients were treated. P-selectin was significantly different between patients who received sodium ozagrel treatment and those who not (P ＜0.05 ), but PAF was similar( P ＞ 0. 05 )after fourteen days. One month later, P-selectin and D-dimer in DVT patients were lower than before. However, the positive rate of P-selectin of DVT was still higher than normal subjects. Conclusions The platelet is activated in vivo in patients with DVT, so does fibrinolysis. Sodium ozagrel can decrease activity of platelet. P-selectin and PAF may be used diagnostic markers. Post-discharge patients are still at high-risk and must be regularly followed-up.

Objective To investigate the expression of transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1) in uterosacral ligament and its correlation with pain in endometriosis.Methods Total of 54 patients undergoing endometriotic lesions excision in uteroscaral ligament by laparoscopy due to pelvic pain were enrolled in this study.According to visual analogue scale(VAS) scores,27 patients with VAS 5 - 10 were in group A and 27 patients with VAS 0 - 4 were in group B.In the mean time,20 patients with dysmenorrhea without endometriosis (VAS:0 -4 ) were matched as group C.Specimens (including the sacro-ligaments of 20 women without endometriosis) were immunostained with specific antibodies of TRPV1.Western blot and real time PCR were performed to detect TRPV1 expression in endometriosis lesions and control group.Results( 1 ) Immunohistochemnistry:the positive area of TRPV1 was found in endometriotic lesions in uterosacral ligament in group A,B and tissue of uterosacral ligament group C.The semi-qualitification of TRPV1 expression were 3 in group A, 1 in group B and 1 in group C by immunohistochemistry staining.There was significantly different expression between group B and group A ( P =0.005 ) or group C ( P =0.027 ).(2) mRNA expression:the expression of TRPV 1 was 1.84 in group A,0.80 in group B,0.24 in group C,respectively.With higher VAS scores,the expression of TRPV1 exhibited increasing trends.The expression of TRPV1 mRNA was higher in group A than thai in group B ( P =0.022).There was statistically different expression between group B and group C ( P =0.031 ).( 3 ) Western blot:the expression of TRPV1 protein was 0.63 in group A,0.19 in group B,0.02 in group C.There was significant differences between group A and group B ( P =0.022 ),and between group B and group C (P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusion The expression of TRPV1 was correlated with the degree of pain in patient with endometriosis.

Objective To study the relationship between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and osteoporosis by measuring the bone mineral density (BMD),lung function,blood gas analysis,calcium ion,high sensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP) and the quality of life.Methods BMD measuring was performed by ultrasound dry bone densitometer in 32 patients with COPD (COPD group) and 35 healthy controls (control group).The ultrasonic transmission speed (SOS),SOS T,fracture risk factor (OSI) and bone strength (TI) were measured at the sites of the left calcaneus.COPD group was divided into three groups according to lung function,3 cases of mild,14 cases of moderate and 15 cases of severe.According to the level of BMD,there were another three groups,3 cases with normal BMD,24 cases with lower BMD,and 5 cases with osteoporosis.According to the history of systemic glucocorticoid application,COPD group was divided into two groups,10 cases with glucocorticoid application and 22 cases without glucocorticoid application.The levels of BMD between COPD group and control group were compared,and the correlation between BMD and lung function,blood gas analysis,calcium ion,hs-CRP and the quality of life in patients with COPD was analyzed.Results COPD group had lower BMD than that in control group (P ＜ 0.05).In COPD group,the severe patients had lower BMD than the moderate patients (P ＜ 0.05),and the severe patients had only lower SOS than the mild patients(P ＜ 0.05),but there was no statistic significant difference in BMD between the moderate and mild patients(P ＞ 0.05).According to the level of BMD,the osteoporosis patients had lower arterial oxygen tension (PaO2) and higher hs-CRP and COPD assessment test (CAT) than the normal BMD and lower BMD patients,and the lower BMD patients had lower PaO2 and higher CAT than the normal BMD patients (P ＜ 0.05),but there was no statistic significant difference in calcium ion among them(P ＞ 0.05).According to the history of systemic glucocorticoid application,the patients with glucocorticoid application had lower level of BMD than the other patients (P ＜ 0.05).SOS,SOS T,OSI and TI was correlated with one second forced expiratory volume percent predicted (FEV1％) (r =0.389,0.262,-0.295,0.265; P＜0.05),also correlated with PaO2 (r =0.391,0.100,-0.374,0.122;P＜0.05),and also correlated with CAT (r =-0.659,-0.463,0.175,-0.178 ; P ＜ 0.05).There was only a negative correlation between SOS and hs-CRP (r =-0.390,P ＜ 0.05).Further in Logistic regression analysis,the results showed that both PaO2 and FEV1％ were the risk factors of BMD reduction.Conclusions Patients with COPD have lower BMD than their peers of healthy.The reduction of blood oxygen pressure and lung function are the risk factors of BMD reduction.There is a conjecture that the reduced BMD is correlated with chronic inflammation in patients with COPD.

Objective To evaluate the relationship of metabolic syndrome (MS) and MS components with thyroid nodule. Methods A total of 10 357 subjects ( age ＞ 18 years old) who received physical checkup at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University between June 2009 and June 2010 were enrolled in this retrospective study. Anthropometric parameter, fasting plasma glucose (FPG),serum lipid profile, blood uric acid, alanine aminotransferase and thyroid ultrasonography were measured. Results The prevalence of thyroid nodule,MS,and thyroid nodule + MS was 46. 96% ,23. 6%,and 11.6%, respectively. The prevalence of thyroid nodule was significantly higher in MS patients than in non MS patients ( 75.9% vs 38. 0%, P ＜ 0. 05 ). Multifactor logistic analysis showed that MS, body mass index (BMI) and FBG (β vales were 0. 78,1.22,and 0. 62,respectively; odds ratios were 4. 167,3. 876,and 2. 359, respectively; all P ＜ 0. 05 ) were independently correlated with the development of thyroid nodule. Conclusions Significantly increased prevalence of thyroid nodule could be found in MS patients. BMI and FBG may be independent risk factors of thyroid nodule.

Objective To determine the relationship between normal weight obesity (NOW) and cardiovascular risk factors.MethodsA total of 940 adults who received a health examination in out hospital were recruited in a cross-sectional study,and 407 with a body mass index (BMI) of18.5 to 25 kg/m2were enrolled for further analysis.Body fat percentage ( BF％ ) was measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA),and the subjects were assigned to the NOW group ( BF％ ≥25％ for male or BF％ ≥35％for female) or the control group ( BF％ ＜ 25％ for male or BF％ ＜ 35％ for female).Cardiovascular risk factors and their detection rates were compared between the two groups by using independent sample t test and x2 test.The correlationbetweenNOW and cardiovascular risk factors was assessedbylogistic regression.Results The prevalence of NOW in men and women were13.1％ and14.9％,respectively.The prevalence of NOW was increased with age ( x2 =6.90,P ＜0.05 ).Systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure ( DBP ),total cholesterol ( TC ),triglycerides ( TG ),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-C) and serum uric acid (SUA) were significantly increased in the NOW group (t values were 2.97,2.44,2.54,5.09,2.71and 3.91,respectively; all P ＜ 0.05 ) ; whereas high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( HDL-C) was significantly decreased in the NOW group (t =-3.90,P ＜ 0.05 ).The prevalence of hypertension,hyperglycemia,high triglyceride,low HDL-C,dyslipidmia and hyperuricemia was increased in the NOW group in comparison with the control group ( x2 values were 6.76,5.58,14.50,11.97,10.97 and 8.76,respectively;allP＜ 0.05 ).LogisticregressionshowedNOWincreasedtheriskof hypertension,hyperglycemia,dyslipidmia or hyperuricemia by 2.186,2.120,2.088 or 4.175 times.After adjustment for age and gender,the risk for hyperuricemia was decreased to 3.491,but remained statistically significant higher.Conclusions NOW may be correlated with cardiovascular risk factors,and those with NOW could be at higher risk for cardiovascular diseases.

Objective To study the levels of senlm uric acid(UA)in normal glucose(NC),impaired glucose regulation(IGR)and type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM),and investigate its relationship with insulin resistance and dyslipidemia.Method The levels of blood glucose,lipids,fasting insulin(HNS)and serum UA were measured in patients of 45 T2DM(T2DM group),20 IGR(IGR group)and 29 NC(NC group).Status of insulin resistance and insulin secretion function was evaluated by HOMA-IR and ISI.Results The levels of triglyceride(TG)and UA in T2DM group and IGR group were significantly higher than those in NC group[(3.34±8.77),(1.85±0.67),(1.26±0.38)mmoi/L and(316.71±96.20),(403.62±76.80),(325.45±94.43)mmol/L](P<0.01).HDL-C levels in T2DM group were significantly lower than those in IGR and NC group[(1.05±0.30),(1.07±0.21),(1.12±0.20)mmol/L](P<0.01).NO significant difference of FINS levels was found in the three groups.HOMA-IR level in T2DM and IGR group was higher than that in NC group(3.84,3.77,2.34)(P<0.01).ISI in T2DM and IGR group was lower than that in NC group(-4.52±0.79,-4.44±0.19,-4.03±0.58)(P<0.01).Correlation analysis indicated that the level of UA was positively related with BMI.TG and negatively related with HDL-C.Conclusion Increased UA in IGR indicates that hyperurieacidemia developes before DM.

Objective To compare the efficacy and cost of surgical clipping and endovascular embolization in the treatment of anterior and posterior communicating artery aneurysm and to conduct cost-effectiveness analysis. Methods The data of treatment outcomes and costs in patients with anterior or posterior communicating artery aneurysms admitted to Huashan hospital from 2002 to 2006 were analyzed using a retrospective cohort study. Results A total of 302 patients were included in the study. They were divided into surgical clipping group (n = 150; 65 males, age [48. 11 ±9. 94] years), interventional treatment group (n = 152;75 males, age [52. 56 ± 11. 09] year). The age of the former was lower than that of the latter (t = -3. 670, P =0. 000). There was no significant difference in preoperative clinical conditions (such as location of aneurysms and Hunt-Hess grade) between the two groups. The good outcome rate in the interventional treatment group was significantly higher than that in the surgical clipping group (84. 87% vs. 74. 67%, χ2 = 4. 875, P = 0. 027). There was no significant difference in hospital mortality (5. 33% vs. 3. 94%,χ2 =0. 328, P =0. 567) and complication rate (26.67% vs. 19. 74% , χ2 =2.036, P =0.154) between the surgical clipping group and the interventional treatment group, but the intraoperative aneurysm rupture (10. 67% vs. 3. 95%, χ2 =5.047, P =0.028) and the incidence of postoperative intracranial infection (6/144 vs. 0/152, χ2 = 6.203, P =0.014) in the surgical clipping group were higher than those in the interventional treatment group. The length of hospital stay in the interventional treatment group was significantly shorter than that in the surgical clipping group ([10. 0 ± 7. 0] dvs. [23.0 ± 11. 0] d, Z = -10. 35, P ＜0.001). The median cost of treatment was 95 327.63 %,yuan in the interventional treatment group, and the interquartile range (IQR) was 26 312. 98 yuan; it was significantly higher than the surgical clipping group (median 30 072. 01 yuan, IQR 11 178. 54 yuan) (Z = -14.449, P＜0.001). Compared with the surgical clipping group, while the mRS score improved in the interventional treatment group 0. 10, the cost was about 66 438 yuan, so that the surgical clipping was more cost-effective. Conclusions The efficacy of the intervention treatment of anterior and posterior communicating artery aneurysms is better than that of the surgical clipping The mortality and total complication rate are almost the same with the surgical clipping Thehospital stay is shorter, but the cost of treatment is higher. From an economic point of view, the surgical clipping is more cost-effective.
