Objective To evaluate the role of transeso phageal echocardiography(TEE) before chemical or electric cardioversion for non-vulvular atrial fibrillation. Methods Forty-three patients, confirmed non-vulvular atrial fibrillation, undertook anticoagulation or anti-platelet therapy and transthoracic echocardiography and TEE less than 24-48 hours prior to cardioversion. Results Two thrombi in the left atrial appendage and three spontaneous echo contrasts in the left atrium were evidenced. After anticoagulation or anti-platelet therapy, 39 patients undertook cardioversion therapy. Among them,31 patients received drug cardioversion,success in 19,and failure in 12;8 patients received electric cardioversion,success in 6,and failure in 2. There were no thromboembolic events during the hospitalization. Conclusions TEE performed before cardioversion for atrial fibrillation is necessary to reduce the risks of thromboembolic events and to guide for anticoagulation therapy.

Objective To evaluate the surgical effect for congenital nystagmus (CN) with an abnormal head position in all three axes of a predominant head turn. Design Retrospective case series. Participants 11 patients with horizontal nystagmus and abnormal head position treated in Xingtai Eye Hospital during 2003-2008. All had an abnormal head position in all three axes with a predomi-nant head turn. Methods Recession of the yoke muscles responsible for the slow phase of nystagmus (one medial rectus of 6mm, and one lateral rectus 8 mm), and simultaneously resection of the yoke muscles responsible for the fast phase of nystagmus (the other lateral rectus 9 mm, and medial rectus 7 mm) were performed. The follow-up was from 6 to 20 months. Main Outcome Measures The visual acuity of both eyes in primary position, the degree of head turn, chin elevation or depression, head tilt. Results At the last follow-up, the all 11 patients undergoing the operation for CN gained two or more lines of Snellen acuity with both eyes in primary position for be-ing corrected best. The postoperative mixed head position of 9 cases got disappear or ≤ 10°. Of 1 case developed overcorrection of the head turn. 1 case has the head turn of ≤15°, and 1 case remained the head turn of 25°. Conclusion Recessions and resections of the horizontal yoke rectus muscles in nystagmus with blockage position, when the head turn predominates over the vertical and torsional components, are effective in diminishing the abnormal head position on all three axes, and improve the visual acuity with both eyes in primary position.

The use of genetic approaches to probe relative genes that control sensitivity to volatile anesthetics in intact model has recently emerged as the powerful tools and strategies in dissecting mechanisms of anesthesia. Multiple model organisms such as yeast, nematodes, fruitflies and mammals are currently being exploited, and a number of sensitive genes have been screened, with some of them being cloned, located, and function identified. The emerging technologies are likely to provide further great advances for elucidating the specific anesthetic molecular sites.

Objective To determine the accuracy and usefulness of dobutamine stress echocardiography(DSE) in detecting restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods DSE was conducted in 47 patients before coronary angiography, 6 months to 18 months after PCI. The standard protocol of DSE was 5,10,20,30 ?g?kg~(-1)?min~(-1) with subsequent incremental increases every 3 minutes to a maximum dose of 40 ?g?kg~(-1)?min~(-1). Consistency of the results was compared between DSE and coronary angiography.Results Compared with coronary angiographic results, DSE had a low sensitivity(64%) but high specificity(86%) for detection of restenosis after PCI. The total accuracy was 72%. Conclusions DSE can assess restenosis after PCI with lower cost and safety.

Objective; To express and purify HCA518 protein and prepare its monoclonal antibody ( McAb). Methods: The HCA518 protein was expressed with gene recombinant technique in prokaryotic system and purified with nickel chelate nitrilotriacetic acid(Ni-NTA) affinity chromatography column. Hybridoma cell lines that secreted anti-HCA518 McAb were established by cells fusion and screened by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay( ELISA). The specificity of anti-HCA518 McAb wa3 identified by Western blot assay. The HCA518 protein in tumor cells was stained by immunoflourescence assay. Results: Rcombinant HCA518 protein was expressed with a purity of 98%. Two hybridoma cell lines was selected and anti-HCA518 McAb was purified from mice ascites. The titers of anti HCA518 McAb in ascites were 1?10-4 and 5?10-4 respectively. The antibody belonged to IgG2b subtype and IgM. Anti-HCA518 McAb specifically reacted with recombinant HCA518 protein and tumor cells'nuclear protein (P100). The HCA518 protein was mainly located in cell nucleus. Conclusion: Stable hybridoma cell lines that secreted anti-HCA518 McAb have been established and anti HCA518 McAb was prepared with high specificity. It has important significance for detecting HCA518 protein in tumor tissues and determining malignant proliferation status of tumor cells and predicting its prognosis.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical efficacy of levodopa combined with comprehensive therapy for ametropic amblyopia children and teenagers and its effeets on pattern visual evoked potential(P-VEP)and visual function. METHODS:70 pa-tients(80 eyes)with ametropic amblyopia were randomly divided into observation group(35 cases,40 eyes)and control group(35 cases,38 eyes). Control group received comprehensive therapy as wearing correctional glasses,occlusion therapy and visual stimu-lation training;observation group additionally received levodopa 0.125(d1-3)-0.25 g/time,bid,on the basis of control group for 6 months. Therapeutic efficacy,P-VEP,Visual sensitivity and visual function were compared between two groups,and the occur-rence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS:The effective rate of observation group(92.50%)was significantly higher than that of con-trol group(76.32%),with statistical significance(P<0.05);the wave amplitude of P-VEP P100 in observation group were signifi-cantly greater than in control group,and the incubation period was significantly shorter than control group,with statistical signifi-cance(P<0.05);visual acuity under different spatial frequency contrast were significantly higher than control group,and correc-tion convergence range and correction separation range of observation group were significantly greater than those of control group, while corrected near stereo vision was significantly less than control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in ADR incidence between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Levodopa combined with comprehensive therapy can improve the function of visual central neurons,and improve visual acuity and binocular stereo vision functions so as to improve therapy efficacy.
