Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2008;15(4):639-641
Objective To study autonomic nerve regulator character and arrhythmias in the patients with essential hypertension(EH) and coronary heart disease(CHD). Methods The heart rate variability(HRV) and arrhythmias in 50 EH, 44 CHD, 52 EH + CHD patients and 35 healeh elderly subjects were investigated. Results There were significant differences of HRV in the patients with EH, CHD and healthy elderly subjects(P<0.05).There was much significant difference of HRV between the patients with EH + CHD and healthy elderly subjects(P<0.01), but no significant difference of HRV between the patients with EH and CHD(P>0.05). The incidence rate of the premature atrial contraction, premature ventriculax contraction and atrial tachycardia in EH, CHD, EH+CHD and healthy elderly subjects, there were much significant differences( P<0.01 ). Except the incidence rate of premature atrial contraction there was significant difference between the patients in CHD and EH + CHD (P<0.05) ,and no significant differences of the incidence rate of other kinds of arrhythmias in the patients with EH,CHD and EH + CHD(P>0.05 ). Conclusion The autonomic never function of EH and CHD patients was damaged, and the incidence rate of arrhythmias was increased(the premature atrial contraction often happened, then the premature ventricular contraction), and arrhymias happened in EH + CHD patients is most oftenly. The vagal hypoacfivity and sympathetic hyperactivity were major causes of reduction of HRV and probable causes in the elderly patients.

Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2015;22(3):424-426
Objective To explore the value of plasma brain natriuretic peptide test in the diagnosis and treatment of elderly heart failure patients with normal ejection fraction,and to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment of the disease.Methods 104 patients with heart failure were selected,at the same time,30 elderly patients with normal heart function in our hospital were selected as the control group.The plasma brain natriuretic peptide and cardiac color Doppler ultrasound were examined.The plasma brain natriuretic peptide and left ventricular ejection fraction,left ventricular posterior wall thickness,left ventricular mass index,left ventricular diastolic diameter and ventricular septal thickness were compared between two groups ; at the same time,peptide and left ventricular plasma brain natriuretic ejection fraction were compared in heart failure patients with different levels of NYHA.Results The plasma level of brain natriuretic peptide,left ventricular posterior wall thickness,left ventricular mass index in the heart failure group were (401.37 ± 368.63) ng/L,(13.42 ± 1.33) mm,(130.62 ± 9.18) g/m2,which were significantly higher than those of the control group (all P < 0.05).The left ventricular ejection fraction of the heart failure group was (51.36 ±4.41) %,which was significantly lower than the control group(P <0.05).The left ventricular ejection fraction of patients with different NYHA grading in the heart failure group was significantly lower than that of the control group(all P <0.05),plasma brain natriuretic peptide levels in patients with different NYHA grading were significantly higher than those in the control group,and with the elevated levels of NYHA classification,the plasma brain natriuretic peptide level increased significantly(P < 0.05).Conclusion The level of plasma brain natriuretic peptide in elderly heart failure patients with normal ejection fraction was significantly increased,and with the increase of NYHA grade,plasma brain natriuretic peptide level rised,it is important to assess diagnosis and severity of this disease.

Objective To investigate the effect of atorvastatin on cardiac fibrosis and on the expression of NF-?B and TNF-? in a rat model of type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups.In control group(n=20) the rats were fed with normal food and gavaged with normal saline.In diabetes group(n=20) the rats with type 2 diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of low doses of streptozotocin(STZ),and the rats were fed with high fat diet.In atorvastatin group(n=20) diabetes was reproduced in rats and atorvastatin 20mg/(kg?d) was gavaged for 12 weeks.The pathological changes in myocardial cells were observed under light microscope.Collagen content was observed by Masson staining.The contents of TNF? were determined in plasma and cardiac tissue with RIA.RT-PCR was used to study the gene expression of NF-?B and TNF-?.The proteins of NF-?B p65 and TNF-? were assayed by immunohistochemical method.Results It was showed under light microscope that cardiac myocytes were compact and orderly with clear structure in control group.The cardiac myocytes were disorderly,distorted,with infiltration of inflammatory cells in the interstitium in diabetes group.The cardiac myocytes were orderly arranged,and the structure was close to normality in atorvastatin group.TNF-? in diabetic rats increased significantly in plasma and myocardium(P

The existence of HBV-DNA in the mononuclear cells of peripheral blood and in the serum of 61 patients with HBV infection was determined with southern blot and dot blot hybridization,and that in the liver tissue of 31 patients out of the 61 with southern blot and in situ hybridization.The positive rate of HBV-DNA in the serum,mononuclear cells and hepatocytrs was 26.2% (16/61),24.6% (15/61) and 44.8% (13/31) respectively.There was no concordance of the existence of HBV-DNA in the serum,peripheral mono-nuclear cells and hepatocytes in an individual.For example,HBV-DNA was absent in the serum but present in mononuclear cells and hepatocytes in 11 cases.In fact,peripheral mononuclsar cells can serve as the reservoir for HBV to replicate.It cannot be denied that HBV can replicate in an individual even though HBV-DNA is negative in the serum.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI) and intracranial and extracranial arterial stenosis in 146 patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease. Methods Degree of intracranial and extracranial arterial stenosis in 146 patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease was assessed by CT angiography (CTA). Then all patients were divided into 4 groups according to the numbers of branches with stenosis: no stenosis group, 1 branch group, 2 branches group, and 3 and more than 3 branches group. Dynamic blood pressure was monitored to calculate the AASI. Results There was no significant difference of AASI among the extracranial arterial stenosis groups (P=0.614). AASI was positively correlated with the degree of intracranial artery stenosis (r=0.743, P<0.05), and with 3 and more intracranial artery branches stenosis (r=0.797, P<0.05). Conclusion AASI is closely correlated with the degree and numbers of branches of intracranial artery stenosis.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the compatible stability of Voriconazole for injection after mixed with Fructose injec-tion or Invert sugar injection. METHODS:Referring to package inserts,Voriconazole for injection 200 mg was dissolved with Wa-ter for injection to 20 mL,and then combined with Fructose injection 250 mL and Invert sugar injection 250 mL,respectively. At room temperature,the appearance of mixtures were observed 0,1,2,3,4,5 h after mixing,and pH value and the number of in-soluble particles were determined;the content of voriconazole was determined by HPLC. RESULTS:Under above condition,the appearance and pH value of mixtures had no significant change within 5 h;the number of particles ≥10 μm and ≥25 μm were all in line with the standard of Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2015 edition);the relative content of voriconazole was decreasing (95.28%-100%),but it changed within ±5%(RSD<2%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:Voriconazole for injection could keep stable within 5 h after mixed with Fructose injection or Invert sugar injection.
