Objective:To compare the therapeutic effects between Shensongyangxin capsule combined metoprolol and metoprolol monotherapy in treating ventricular premature beats.Methods:The related literature of Shensongyangxin capsule combined metoprolol in treatment of ventricular premature beats published from Aug 2005 to Aug 2013 were searched by computer from Cochrane Library,MEDLINE,EMbase,Wangfang Data,China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI)and Chinese biomedical literature database (CBM),and were searched manually.RevMan 5.0 software was used to perform Meta analysis on data.Results:Symptomatic relief in treatment group was signifi-cantly better than that of control group [(Z=8.28,P <0.00001;OR=6.17,95%CI (4.01,9.48)];dynamic ECG improvement in treatment group was significantly better than that of control group [Z=9.37,P <0.00001;OR=3.41,95%CI (2.64,4.40)];there was no significant difference in incidence rate of adverse drug reaction be-tween two groups [Z=1.47,P =0.14;OR=0.70,95%CI (0.43,1.13)].All funnel schemas were symmetry in general,so there was small possibility of bias.Conclusion:Shensongyangxin capsule combined metoprolol possesses better therapeutic effect than metoprolol monotherapy in treating ventricular premature beats,and it doesn′t in-crease adverse drug reactions.

Objective To measure middle cerebral artery (MCA) hemodynamic parameters of chronic cerebral ischemia in middle aged and elderly people with phase contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PCMRI),and to explore cerebral blood flow dynamic pattern in different degrees of chronic cerebral ischemia patients.Methods Middle aged and elderly people underwent conventional MRI scan,and were divided into 12 cases of the normal group,16 cases of mild cerebral ischemia group and 13 cases of obvious cerebral ischemia group.All groups underwent bilateral MCA PCMRI.Bilateral MCA hemodynamic parameters and phase-velocity curve in a heartbeat cycle were obtained by QFLOW analysis software on the workstation for post-processing.Bilateral MCA vascular area,peak velocity (PV),mean velocity (MV) and mean flow (MF) were recorded.The differences of bilateral MCA hemodynamic parameters among the three groups were compared by SPSS17.0 software.Results Bilateral MCA vascular area,MV,MF and right MCA PV among three groups were statistically significant by one-Way ANOVA (P＜0.05).Compared with normal group,systolic peak of bilateral MCA phase-velocity curve was low,dull,widen,and the connection between the diastolic peak and systolic peak became flattened in chronic cerebral ischemia patients.Conclusion PCMRI can reflect the differences of the cerebral blood flow dynamic change pattern between different degrees of chronic cerebral ischemia.

_ Objective_ To evaluate the efficacy of unilateral subtotal adrenalectomy in the treatment of bilateral adrenal solitary neoplasma causing Cushing's syndrome and to elaborate the therapeutic principle. Methods From 2007 to 2013, a total of ten patients were diagnosed with Cushing's syndrome caused by bilateral solitary adrenal neoplasma. We compared patients'clinical symptoms, hormone profiles, biochemical and metabolic parameters, and imaging data before and after the surgery. Five of them chose the optimal neoplasma based on the lateralization ratio of adrenal venous sampling result and the other 5 patients chose the optimal neoplasma based on the diameter of the mass reflected by the computed tomography result and were then operated. Results After the unilateral subtotal adrenalectomy,the24-hour urinary free cortisol decreased significantly(P<0.05)and the midnight serum cortisol level also significantly reduced(P<0. 01). Plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone level increased significantly(P<0. 01). Nine patients of them did not need contralateral adrenalectomy and one patient received contralateral adrelectomy because of the remnant of Cushingnoid symptoms. Conclusion Unilateral subtotal adrenalectomy is an effective and safe way to treat Cushing's syndrome caused by bilateral solitary neoplasma.

Objective To explore the ultrasonography findings and pathological features of adrenal ganglioneuroma and to improve diagnostic level. Methods Ultrasonography appearance and clinical pathological data of 12 cases of primary adrenal ganglioneuroma were retrospectively analyzed. The location, shape, size, echo characteristics, with or without calcification, the color signal of blood flow and its neighboring structure relationship on ultrasound were analyzed. Re-sults In 12 cases, 9 cases were found in the right adrenal gland and 3 cases in the left. All the tumors were solitary and the diameter was between 1.8 and 12 cm. The tumors were round or oval, some irregular or"embedded" growth. E-chogenic focus were found in 5 cases which was pathologically confirmed calcification, 3 cases of tumor showed a small dot color flow signal, all tumors with clear boundaries around the surrounding tissue. Pathology of tumor was mainly composed of ganglion cells and Schwann cells. Conclusion Ultrasonography is of great value in the diagnosis of adrenal ganglioneuroma owing to some specific sonograms.

At present, the prevalence rate of diabetes presents a rising tendency. The cardiovascular disease is a major complication of diabetes mellitus and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a severe form of coronary heart disease. Compared with non-diabetic patients, the disease situation in diabetic ACS patients is more serious with more contradictory problems and difficulty in treatment. Although percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) plays a certain role in re-canalization of coronary artery, after PCI the problems the patients with diabetic ACS will face are still serious. traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) recognizes that the etiology and pathogenesis of diabetic ACS are deficiency in Qi and Yin, and accumulation of blood stasis and toxin inside the body. Through clinical observation and retrospective analysis, it is found that using "supplementing Qi and nourishing Yin, activating blood circulation and detoxifying"can interfere with the patients' diabetic ACS and simplify the therapeutic regimen, which is an integrated regulatory treatment with multiple links, multiple pathways and multiple targets, and is a sufficient realization of unique superiority of traditional Chinese medicine by using holistic concept, syndrome differentiation and multiple-link interference for comprehensive prevention and treatment of diabetic ACS.
