Objective To investigate the relationship between coronary myocardial bridge and the symptoms of the patients and its related factors, and to provide evidence for rational treatment. Methods Sixty-one patients di-agnosed as myocardial bridge by coronary angiography and the examination of nuclide myocardial perfusion imaging were recruited and their clinical data was analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into ischemic group and non-ischemic group according to the nuclide imaging, and were followed up on the compliance of β-blocker taking and the symptoms. Results Among the 61 patients ,7 patients were ischemic,and the others were non-ischemic. There was no significant difference on symptoms between the two groups (P>0.05). The prevalence of Grade Ⅲ narrowing was higher in ischemic group (6/7) than that in the non-ischemic group (18/54) (χ~2=5. 009, P = 0.024) ,and the ischemic patients with Grade Ⅲ narrowing were older than those in the non-ischemic patients. Two patients in the ischemic group did not insist on taking β-blocker and their symptoms did not change,40 patients in the non-ischemia group did not insist on taking β-blocker,of which 33 patient's symptoms were improved. The symp-toms of all patients with good compliance of β-blocker taking were improved. Conclusions The symptoms of some patients are unrelated with myocardial bridge and treatment is not recommended.

Objective To study on gastric varices bleeding treated by tissue adhesive, D-TH glue injection. Methods Fifty-nine consecutive cirrhotic patients with gastric varices were undergone endoscopic D-TH glue injection with sandwich approach. Among these 59 patients, bleeding was present in 46 patients (acute bleeding in 37, recent bleeding in 9) , no previous of gastric variceal bleeding in 13. Follow-up study on therapeutic results and complications were conducted. Results Ninety-six injections were performed in all patients with a mean of 1. 63 injections (1-2ml) per patient. Recurrent bleeding never occurred in 37 patients with acute gastric varices bleeding 72 hours after injection, and the rale of emergency endoscopic he mostasis was 100 per cent. Thirty (65. 2% ) of 46 patients with bleeding gastric varices were followed for 12 36 months, 24. 9 months on average. Recurrence of bleeding occurred in 2(6. 7% ) , 5 ( 16. 7% ) and 8 (26. 7% ) cases at 3 , 12, and 36 months respectively. The rate of survival was 86. 5 per cent. Besides fever occurred postoperatively in 2 cases, other severe complications never happened. Conclusion Endoscopic D-TH glue injection is a safe and effective method for treating gastric varices bleeding.

Objective To detect the hypermethylation of HOXB6 gene in gastric cancer tissue and investigate the relationship between the gene expression and the clinics.Methods seven types of gastric cancer cell line and 73 cases of gastric cancer biopsy tissues were measured by combined bisulfite restriction analysis method.The gene expression and the re-expression after demethylation were detected by RT-PCR.Results Of 7 cell lines examined, 4 showed hypermethylation.The methylating status of HOXB6 was found to be correlated with loss of expression,which was restored by 5-aza-2＇-deoxycytidine treatment.We also find hypermethylation in 20/73(27.40%)case of cancer tissues but no one in non cancer tissue.Conclusion There are close relationship between hypermethylation and gene silencing in the HOXB6 gene of gastric cancer,There are also a gene re-expression after its demethylation.Hypermethylation of HOXB6 gene can be a tumor marker for gastric cancer diagnosis,and the agent of demethylation maybe a new antineoplastic drug.

Objective To evaluate multi- slice spiral CT angiography (MSCTA) in diagnosing bronchial-pulmonary shunts (BPS). Methods The materials of MSCTA images in 31 patients with DSA-confirmed BPS were retrospectively analyzed. Taking DSA imaging as the reference standard, the consistency in diagnosing BPS at different levels between MSCTA and DSA was compared. Results On MSCTA using aorta-density trigger scanning technique BPS was manifested as wrong-time enhancement of pulmonary artery branches. Wilcoxon test indicated that MSCTA had a high concordance with DSA in detecting BPS occurring at sub-segmental (or above) pulmonary artery branches (Z = -1.854, P > 0.05), but MSCTA detection of BPS occurring at peripheral pulmonary arteries was obviously poorer than DSA (Z = -3.923, P < 0.05). MSCTA confirmed the diagnosis of BPS in 11 cases with a sensitive rate of 35.5% (11/31), and no differences in revealing the number and the shunt levels of BPS existed between DSA and MSCTA. The number of abnormal systemic arteries demonstrated by MSCTA was quite the same as the number detected by DSA. No false positive case was seen. Conclusion MSCTA is very effective in diagnosing high-flow BPS locating at sub-segmental (or above) pulmonary artery branches as well as in revealing abnormal bronchus-related systemic arteries, which is very helpful in preoperatively evaluating the severity of the BP shunting and the supplying arteries to be obstructed.

Objective To study the effects of exercise on hemodynamic parameters and cardiovascular humoral factors in the elderly patients with hypertension. Methods The modified Bruce assessment (MBA) was employed in an essential hypertension (EH) group (group 1, n =34) composed by elderly EH patients and a control group (group 2, n =31) composed of normal subjects. Heart rate (HR),systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP、DBP), and the quantum and duration of exercise (QE, DE) were explored, while the serum concentrations of nitric oxide (NO), endothelin 1(ET1), atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and AngiotensinⅡ(AngⅡ) were measured at 3 min before and after treatment. Results There were no significant differences between groups 1 and 2 with regard to HR, SBP, DBP, total DE and peak QE before and after treatment, in addition, at the peak of exercise ( P 0.05). Pretreatment SBP and DBP were significantly and positively correlated with those at the peak of and after treatment ( r =0.648,0.630, P

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of real time elastosonography in estimating the characteristic of nodules in resected hepatocirrhosis specimens.Methods Thirty-eight reseeted hepatocirrhosis specimens underwent elastosonography.The nodules that have drawn attention were performed elastosonography through rhythmic pressing and releasing the probe by manual form on the liver.The hepatic strain on the region of interest was shown by chromatic scale.To compare nodules rigidity with surrounding hepatic tissues, hepatocirrhosis nodules were classified into hard nodules, medium rigidity nodules, mixture of hard and soft nodules, and soft nodules.All nodules were confirmed by pathology.Results Forty-four nodules of 38 hepatocirrhosis exemplar received real time elastosonography.Of 44 nodules, hard nodules were 18,of which 12 (66.7%) were hepatoeellular carcinomas, 2 (11.1%) were dysplasia nodules, 4 (22.2%) were regenerative nodules.Medium rigidity nodules were 7,all were regenerative nodules.Mixture of hard and soft nodules were 11, of which 8 (72.7%) were hepatocellular carcinomas, including 4 accompanied necrotic tissue, 1 (9.1%) was dysplasia nodules accompanied necrotic tissue, the other 2 (18.2%) were regenerative nodules accompanied necrotic tissue.And soft nodules were 8, of which 4(50.0%) were necrotic nodules, 1 (12.5%) was dysplasia nodules accompanied canceration, 1 (12.5%) was hepatocellular carcinoma,2(25.0 %) were regenerative nodules.Conclusions Real time elastosonography can effectively evaluate the comparative rigidity on hepatoeirrhosis nodules,and thus may have potential usefulness on estimating the characteristic of hepatocirrhosis nodules.

The two pabAB genes encoding aminodeoxychorismate synthase(ADC synthase)from a L-serine producing strain Corynebacterium glutamicum SYPS-062 and model strain Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032 were ampilified by PCR.The result of nucleotide sequence analysis showed that both pabAB fragments were 1863bp,encoding 620 amino acids.16 bases differences that resulted in the changes of 7 amino acids were found in the pabAB of SYPS-062.The two pabAB were inserted into pET-28a to yield the recombinant expression vector pET-28a-pabAB and then transfromed into BL21(DE3).Upon IPTG induction,soluble ADC synthase was over-produced by E.coli BL21(DE3)harboring the expression construct.Recombinant ADC synthase purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography showed a single band about 67kDa on SDS-PAGE gel,and activity of aminodeoxychorismate synthase analysis show that the enzyme specific activity of SYPS-062 is 46.6% lower than ATCC 13032.

Objective To compare Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence method in Survivin expression. Methods By using Western blot analysis and immunofluorescence method, Survivin gene expressions of the peripheral blood mononuclear cells in 18 patients with leukemia and 10 healthy persons were analysed. Results Positive expression of Survivin gene was detected in 13 of 18 leukemic patients by Western blot analysis and in 11 of 18 leukemic patients by immunofluorescence method. Negative expression of Survivin gene was detected in 10 healthy persons. The results of Survivin expression were the same in 16 patients by Western blots analysis and immunofluorescence method (consistent rate is 88.89%), but the positive expression of Survivin by Western blot analysis was the negative expression by immunofluorescence method in another 2 patients. Conclusion Survivin gene expressed selectively in leukemic cells, but not in normal mononuclear cell in peripheral blood. It indicated that Survivin expression is effective monitoring index in diagnosis and prognosis of leukemia. Survivin expression by Western blot analysis was consistent with immunofluorescence method.
