Objective To study the mechanism of different forms of ST-segment elevation in acute myocardial infarction(AMI),and to investigate the distribution of its traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)syndrome types.Methods Two hundred and twelve hospitalized AMI patients with ST-segment elevation from March of 2015 to July of 2017 were divided into group A and group B.Group A had 102 cases with the elevation of concavity of STsegment,and group B had 110 cases with the elevation of arch of ST-segment.The correlation of ST-segment elevation in different forms with TCM syndrome types was analyzed.Results (1) Patients of group B were usually male,young and middle-aged,with or without short-term medical history of coronary heart disease,and coronary angiography results indicated the stenosis or occlusion of the vessels without collateral circulation.Patients in group A were usually female,aged,with medical history of coronary heart disease,and coronary angiography results indicated the existence of collateral circulation.(2) Group A was dominated by Qi-deficiency and blood-stasis syndrome,and the frequency of its syndrome types was in decreasing sequence:Qi-deficiency and blood-stasis syndrome,Qi-yin deficiency syndrome,heat-toxicity and blood-stasis syndrome,phlegm blended with bloodstasis syndrome,syndrome of cold stagnation in heart vessels.Group B was dominated by heat-toxicity and bloodstasis syndrome,and the frequency of its syndrome types was in decreasing sequence:heat-toxicity and bloodstasis syndrome,Qi-deficiency and blood-stasis syndrome,Qi-yin deficiency syndrome,syndrome of cold stagnation in heart vessels,phlegm blended with blood-stasis syndrome.The difference of the distribution of syndrome types was significant between the two groups (P ＜ 0.01).(3) In respect of the differentiation of deficiency and excess syndromes,group A was dominated by deficiency interweaved with excess syndrome,while group B was dominated by excess syndrome.The difference of the distribution of deficiency and excess syndrome was significant between the two groups (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion AMI patients with different forms of ST-segment elevation have different TCM syndrome types.The investigation results will provide a new vision for the clinical trial of AMI treated with Chinese medicine integrated with western medicine,and will supply evidence for the syndrome differentiation and treatment of AMI patients with different forms of ST-segment elevation,which will contribute to enhancing clinical efficacy,saving life and improving prognosis.

In this study, the internal transcribed spacer 2 of nuclear ribosomal DNA (ITS2) sequence was used for i-dentifying A nemone raddeana and its adulterants to ensure the quality of medicines and clinical efficacy. Genomic DNA was extracted from 36 samples using Genomic DNA kit and used as templates for Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Sequence assembly and consensus sequence generation were performed by CodonCode Aligner. The intraspe-cific and interspecific genetic distances were computed and the neighbor-joining tree was constructed by MEGA 5.1 in accordance with the Kimura 2-Parameter (K-2P) model. Results: The length of ITS2 sequence of A nemone rad-deana was 216 bp. The Maximum intraspecific genetic distance was 0.014, the minimum interspecific genetic dis-tance was 0.021. The NJ tree showed that A . raddeana differ from its adulterants obviously. Conclusion: ITS2 se-quence was able to identify A . raddeana and its adulterants correctly stably and correctly, which provides a new tech-nique to its identification.

The purpose of this study is to systematically investigate the characteristics of absorption and metabolism of oxymatrine (OMT) using rat intestinal perfusion model. Ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) and high performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-quadrupole-time of flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI(+)-Q-TOF-MS) were used to test absorption of OMT in intestine at 100, 200 and 400 µmol · L(-1). The absorption rate and permeability of OMT is not dependent on concentration, but through passive absorption in intestine (P > 0.05). In the rat intestine, the absorbed amount of OMT was significantly different in four sections of the intestine in an order of duodenum > jejunum > ileum > colon (P < 0.05). OMT is metabolized into two metabolites in duodenum and jejunum, and matrine (MT) is the major one.

Objective:To evaluate the security of recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (rhBNP)in the treatment of acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF ), and to provide the basis for its application.Methods:Both foreign language databases including PubMed,The Cochrane Library (Issue 1,2015),EMBase and Chinese databases involving CNKI,VIP and Wanfang Data were searched.Two reviewers independently extracted the data,and assessed the quality;then the Meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.1 software and Stata 12.0 software.Results:A total of 35 randomized controlled trials (RCTs)involving 12 143 patients were included. The results of Meta-analysis showed that compared with control group the 1-month mortality (RR=1.01,95%CI:0.85-1.21,P =0.88),3-month mortality (RR=0.89,95%CI:0.63-1.27,P =0.53)and 6-month mortality (RR = 0.97, 95% CI: 0.87 - 1.08,P = 0.59 )in rhBNP group had no statistical differences;no statistical difference was found in the incidence of side effects (RR=1.01,95%CI:0.71-1.43,P =0.97).The incidence of hypotension in rhBNP group was significantly higher than that in control group (RR= 1.42,95%CI:0.99 -2.03,P =0.06).Conclusion:Compared with dobutamine,vasodilator drugs and placebo,rhBNP doesn’t change the mortality and incidence of adverse reactions of the patients with ADHF,but increases the risk of hypotension.Clinical application of rhBNP should be reasonable and its effectiveness should be exerted sufficiently,meanwhile,as much as possible to avoid hypotension,etc.

Objective:To study and compare the prognosis of different pathological subtypes of renal cell carcinoma (RCC).Methods:Clinicopathological and prognostic data of 1 346 cases of postoperative renal cell carcinoma during July 2002 to June 2014 in West China Hospital were collected retrospectively.There were 839 males and 507 females, aged (55.1±13.4)years, including 1 120 cases of clear cell RCC, 62 cases of papillary RCC, 79 cases of chromophobe RCC and 85 cases of the other pathological types respectively. ECOG 0 and ≥1 were 911 and 435 cases, with; T 1, T 2, T 3 and T 4 of 1 019, 177, 102 and 48 cases respectively; WHO nuclear grade for well, intermediate, poor differentiation and unknown were 587, 530, 85 and 144 cases separately.Tumor size <5cm, 5-10cm, ≥10cm and unknown were 685, 541, 104 and 16 cases.Combined with necrosis or sacromatoid differentiation were 200/1 146 and 27/1 319 cases separately. Meanwhile, data of 80 439 cases from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER) were also collected.There were 51 371 males and 29 068 females, aged (60.9±12.4) years; , with 66 261, 8 680, 5 022 and 476 cases of White, Black, Asian, American native, or unknown race separately. There were 62 600 of clear cell RCC, 12 170 of papillary RCC, 4 354 of chromophobe RCC and 1 315 of other pathological types, with T 1, T 2, T 3 and T 4 of 55 332, 8 687, 15 516 and 904 cases respectively; WHO nuclear grade for well, intermediate and poor differentiation were 52 323, 22 700 and 5 416 cases separately.Tumor size <5cm, 5-10cm, ≥10cm were 46 741, 25 760 and 7 938 cases respectively. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis were performed on these two group of cases, with different factors between subgroups (gender, age, pathological types, tumor stage, size and nuclear grade) evaluated by log-rank test. To evaluate accuracy of outcome prediction models of SSIGN, Leibovich and UISS score, concordance index of these models were evaluated. Results:In 1 346 cases of our cohort, those with chromophobe RCC were well prognostic, survival were relatively better in clear cell RCC than that of papillary RCC, and worst prognosis were demonstrated in those with other types of RCC (5 year overall survival rate: 97.5%, 87.9%, 79.7% and 68.4% separately). Poor prognosis were seen in those older than 50 years, with poor T stage or nuclear grade, large tumor size and tumors with necrosis or sacromatoid differentiation ( P<0.05). In 80 439 seer cases, the best prognosis was also seen in chromophobe RCC and the worst in other type of RCC separately (5 year overall survival rate: 96.3% and 85.3%). In addition, longer survival was seen in papillary RCC than clear cell RCC (5 year overall survival rate: 92.5% and 88.9%). However, similar results with our cohort were seen in Asian and American native subgroup of SEER cases (95.1%, 88.6%, 86.7%, 80.2% for chromophobe, clear cell, papillary and other types of RCC respectively). Poor prognosis were seen in those older than 50 years, males, Asian/ American Indian, poor T stage or nuclear grade and large tumor size ( P<0.05). Concordance index for SSIGN, Leibovich and UISS models in our cohort were 0.763-0.781, 0.725-0.752 and 0.641-0.660, respectively. The chromophobe RCC subgroup was relative better based on predictive value of prognosis models(c-index of UISS of 0.670-0.781, SSIGN and Leibovich of 0.733-0.903). Conclusions:In Asian RCC population, prognosis of chromophobe RCC is best, clear cell RCC is slightly better than papillary RCC, and the prognosis of other types of RCC is the worst. Concordance index of SSIGN and Leibovich in our cohort were higher than that of UISS, and the use value for predictive model was better in the chromophobe RCC subgroup.

Objective To study the value of free-style perforator flap in repairing nasal defects after tumor resection.Methods On the basis of the guidance of free-style perforator flap design concept and the foundation of vascular localization by Doppler based on the ultrasonic echo intensity,combined with nasal beauty subunits,we designed free-style perforator flap in different forms such as V-Y advancing flap,rotating flap,and propeller flap,which had with free-style perforator in pedicle all.We transplanted the flaps to repair nasal defects after tumor resection.The area of the flaps was between 2 cm x 1.0 cm and 8.0 cm x 5.0 cm,and the diameter of the perforate vessel in the pedicle of flap was between 0.3 mm-3 mm,and some of the pedicles were composed of perforate vessel tube bundle.In order to reduce recurrence rate,the radiotherapy was performed according to the pathology in 1 month after surgery.Results In 31 cases of this group,29 cases were performed and the postoperative shape was good.1 case appeared postoperative hemorrhage,and the epidermis of flap formed blister because of greater tension,and the patient healed 10 days later after extraction the bubble fluid and changing medicine.The flap of 1 case was silted because the venous was blocked,and the acupuncture was treated,and then the flap got delayed union.23 cases received adjuvant radio therapy after surgery and fellowed up from 6 months to 5 years,showing that local profile and color were satisfacfory without tumor recurrence.Conclusions It is worthy of clinical promotion to designing freetype perforator flap and to repair defect after extensive nasal tumor resection on the basis of beauty subunits in nasal and vascular anatomy,which can not only reduce the recurrence rate by postoperative radiotherapy in time,but also realize better cosmetic requirements.

Objective:To compare the effects of high-power and conventional power atrial fibrillation ablation on intraoperative acute pulmonary vein isolation, postoperative troponin levels, and atrial fibrillation recurrence.Methods:A retrospective selection was conducted on 105 patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation admitted to the Baoding NO.1 Central Hospital from January 2017 to December 2020. According to different treatment methods, they were divided into a high-power ablation group of 52 cases and a conventional power ablation group of 53 cases. The intraoperative rate of single circle acute pulmonary vein isolation, the recovery of electrical conduction after acute pulmonary vein isolation, and the location and number of points that need to be added were compared between the two groups; At the same time, two groups were compared in terms of surgical time, ablation time, surgical radiation exposure time and radiation dose, intraoperative complications postoperative cardiac troponin levels at 12 hours, and recurrence of atrial fibrillation within 1 year after ablation.Results:The intraoperative single loop pulmonary vein isolation rate and postoperative troponin levels in the high-power atrial fibrillation ablation group were higher than those in the conventional atrial fibrillation ablation group (all P<0.05). The surgical time, ablation time, and the number of sites and points that need to be added during surgery were less than those in the conventional atrial fibrillation ablation group (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of intraoperative complications and postoperative atrial fibrillation recurrence between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:High power atrial fibrillation ablation has a higher single loop acute pulmonary vein isolation rate, fewer patch sites and points, shorter surgical time, and greater ablation damage compared to conventional ablation, and the clinical efficacy of the two groups is similar after surgery.
