Objective To explore relativity between serum cortisol and post-stroke depression in old patients with stroke. Methods Serum cortisols of 41 stroke patients were examined two weeks after stroke, and they were all assessed through Hamilton Depression Scale and then happening rates of post-stroke depression observed in both normal cortisol group and enhanced cortisol group were tested through χ2 test. Meanwhile relativity between serum cortisol level and post-stroke depression were analysised. Results Happening rates of post-stroke depression had an evidently difference between both normal cortisol group and enhanced cortisol group(χ2=4.11;P <0.05). Mark of normal cortisol group was 15.29±7.28, enhanced cortisol group was 25.85±10.81, both groups had an evidently difference( P <0.01). Serum cortisols were not obviously relative to depression degree in normal cortisol group( r =0.295;P =0.194) while they were obviously relative in enhanced cortisol group( r =0.702;P =0.001). Conclusion Enhanced cortisol could forecast higher possibility of depression after the old post-stroke, and detecting cortisol could offer theory foundation for prevention and cure of post-stroke depression.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of YMDD mutation during Lamivudine therapy on chronic hepatitis B.Methods Fluorometric analysis PCR, ELISA were used to estimate the YMDD mutation, HBVDNA quantative level and HBeAg for HBV of 72 cases with chronic hepatitis B before therapy (0 month), and after Lamivudine therapy for 9,12,18 months.Results The YMDD mutation was not observed in these cases before Lamivudine therapy. The mutation was found in 8 cases (11.1%), 17 cases (23.6%) and 28 cases (38.9%) at 9, 12, 18 month for therapy. The YMDD mutation rate rose with the therapy time lasting (P<0.05). Moreover, the YmDD mutation rate in the patients with HBVDNA quantity higher than 108 copies/ml was significantly higher than that in the patients with HBVDNA quantity lower than 108 copies/ml (P<0.005). The YMDD variation rate in patients with HBeAg positive and in patients with HBeAg negative showed no significant difference (P>0.05). The HBeAg negative conversion rate was significantly higher in non-mutation group than that in mutation group (P<0.05).Conclusion The serum virus quantity may be regard as an early estimate indication of the development of YMDD mutation during Lamivudine therapy.

Objective To investigate the expression of nuclear factor kappaB(NF-κB) and regulated upon activation normal T cell expressed and secreted chemokine(RANTES) during the formatiom of ascending aortic aneurysm. Methods Forty Wistar rats were randomly divided into the control group(n=20) and the experimental group(n=20).The rat models were made by ligating the ascending aorta. The ascending aortas were taken after ligation for 3months. Immunohistochemistry staining was performed to detect the protein expression of NF-κB and RANTES. The expression of NF-κB and RANTES mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. Results Immunohistochemisry staining results showed NF-κB and RANTES expression significantly increased in aneurysm, while there was a little positive staining in the control group. RT-PCR results indicated that the expression levels of NF-κB and RANTES in the aneurysm were stonger than that of the control group. The expression of NF-κB and RANTES mRNA were remarkably correlated. Conclusion The expression of NF-κB and RANTES in ascendin aortic aneurysm are stronger than that in the control. NF-κB and RANTES may contribute to the pathogenesis of the ascending aortic aneurysm.
