At present, the prevalence of heart failure (HF) is still high in China, and its mortality and readmission rate have no downward trend. Therefore, the mechanism of its occurrence and development needs to be explored. In recent years, it has been found that about 13%-15% of HF patients have subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH), which can lead to cardiac systolic and diastolic dysfunction, thus promoting the occurrence and development of HF. At present, the curative effect of patients with mild elevation of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) level in HF patients with SCH is not clear, and a large number of prospective studies are still needed. In addition, in the complications of HF, SCH is the only disease that can reverse cardiac function after treatment. Therefore, this paper summarizes the mechanism of SCH in the occurrence and development of HF, and provides the basis for the formulation of clinical HF treatment strategies and the evaluation of prognosis.

0.05).Histopathological examination showed no pathological change in the brain,liver,kidneys,and spleen of the mice,but reduced spermatogenic cells spermatozoa.The sperm motility was(40.58?7.75)% in the control,(7.40?1.06)% in the experiment group 1(q=16.909,P0.05).No significant difference in the sperm densities was found among the groups.Conclusions Intermediated alternating magnetic field has adverse effects on the reproduction of mice.Testosterone is one of the target organs of electromagnetic radiation.It is sensitive to IF magnetic field(40 kHz,28 mT).Blood,brain,liver,kidney and spleen of mice are not effected by IF alternating magnetic field.

Objective To examine the heating capability of thermoseeds in isolated hepatic tissues.Methods Isolated hepatic tissues were heated uniformly to 37 ℃,meanwhile the thermoseeds and thermocouples were planted using a template paralleling with the magnetic line.Afterwards,the tissues were treated in an extracorporeal magnetic field of 120-123 gauss at a frequency of 113-116 kHz for 30 minutes.At the meantime,the temperature was recorded by a computer through thermocouples. Results The temperature of the tissues raised markedly with a largest change of 14 ℃.The heating area became hard and showed a gradual change of color(white-yellow-brown).The final temperature was negatively correlated with distance when using same number of the thermoseeds(r=-0.96017 to-0.99767,P=0.0023 to 0.0398),and positively correlated with the number of thermoseeds when measuring at a same point(r=0.93775 to 0.99270,P=0.0007 to 0.0185)except for the center group(r=0.93936,P=0.0606).Conclusions Thermoseeds inductive heating technology can achieve an appropriate temperature in isolated hepatic tissues.In certain extent,the temperature increase the number of thermoseeds and heating distance.

Objective To observe the results of multifocal visual evoked potential (mfVEP) examination in patients with anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) before and ater treatment,and to probe its clinical significance.Methods A total of 90 patients (90 eyes) with AION were examined by mfVEP;the second-order reaction of mfVEP was analyzed.The reaction was divided into upper and lower hemi-field of visual field,or 1 / 4 quadrant visual field (superior nasal,inferior nasal,superior temporal,and inferior temporal).The sum of waves of each response was analyzed and the results in various regions were compared.The features of wave configuration was compared between the AION eyes and the contralateral eye,and between the AION eyes before and after treatment.Results The amplitude and latency of P-wave of mfVEP was 0.198±0.033 and 100.197±7.354 respectively in AION eyes before treatment,and was 0.271±0.024 and 98.567±6.794 in the contralateral eyes;the difference was significant (t=16.556,18.330;P＜0.01).The amplitude and latency of P-wave of mfVEP was 0.229±0.016 and 100.104±10.603 respectively in AION eyes after treatment,which differed much from that before the treatment (t=13.649,8.858;P＜0.01) and also from that of the contralateral eyes (t=13.649,8.858;P＜0.01).Conclusions The amplitude and latency of P-wave of mfVEP may accurately reflect the recovery of local optic nerve damage in AION eyes before and after treatment with good repeatability.AION can be used as a new method for AION diagnosis and detection of the prognosis.

Objective To evaluate the clinical features, diagnosis, and outcome of the treatment of cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis, and the relationship between CMV retinitis and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Methods A total of 95 eyes of 56 patients with cytomegalovirus retinitis and AIDS were studied. The fundus feature, visual acuity and CD4 + T lymphocyte counts were analyzed and the follow up periods ranged from 2 weeks to 18 months. Results Before the definitive diagnosis of CMV retinitis, the courses of AIDS were 4 to 26 months in all patients. In the initial examination, the granular form of CMV retinal lesion was noted in 55 eyes (57%) in which retinal lesion of 46 eyes was peripheral. The fulminant form of CMV retinitis of 25 eyes (26%) was found in the posterior pole and consisted of densely opaque retinal lesions with blotchy hemorrhage and vasculitis. The overlap between these two presentations was noted in 15 eyes. Papillitis was observed in 7 eyes of CMV retinitis in this series of patients. The visual acuity ranged from finger counting to 0.5. The patients with extensive CMV retinitis or CMV retinitis in the posterior pole got poorer vision. The CD4 + T lymphocyte counts of 30 patients was 0 30 (mean, 15?9/?l), and the survival time ranged from 2 weeks to 18 months (mean, 6.4?3.3 months). The vision was improved and CD4 + T lymphocyte counts was significantly higher in the group treated with ganciclovir, and progression of CMV retinitis occured and the vision decreased in the non treated group. Conclusion CMV retinitis is the most common intraocular complication in patients with AIDS. Diagnosis of CMV retinitis is based on the characteristic of necrotizing retinitis which was typically associated with retinal hemorrhage and vasculitis. Ganciclovir is effective for the treatment of CMV retinitis.

Objective To investigate the effects of benazepril on urinary excretion of endothelin 1(Et 1) and the level of plasmic Et 1 (PEt) in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and diabetic nephropathy(DN).Methods PEt and 24 hours urinary excretion of Et 1 (UEtV) in 54 patients with DM and 39 patients with DN before and after taking benazepril (7.5～12.5mg/d) for two months were measured using radioimmunoassay method.Results PEt and UEtV in patients with DM were significantly higher than in normal control group ( P

Objective To evaluation the efficacy of ketamine on the expression of adhension molecular CR3and intracellular cAMP, cGMP in neutrephils in patients associated with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), as well as the cardiovascular function of the CPB patients. Method Sixty patients operated on with prosthetic valve replace-rnent under CPB were randomly divided into 4 groups: placebo, ketamine 0.1 mg/kg ( ketamine Ⅰ) ,ketamine 0.5 mg/kg ( ketamine Ⅱ) ,ketamine 1 mg/kg( ketamine Ⅲ). Each group included 15 eases. Venous blood sam-pies were obtained during anesthesia induction (T1), 10 min before CPB (T2), end of CPB (T3) and 24 hoursafter operation (T4). The expression of CR3 was measured by Flow cytometry and the concentration of cAMP/cGMP by HPLC. Results Ketamine with various dosages decreased the expression of CR3 at the T3 and T4 inpatients of ketamine groups compared with patients of placebo group (P<0.05). The dosages of ketamine Ⅱgroup and ketamine Ⅲ group had more significant effect than that of ketamine Ⅰ group. The dosages of ketamineⅡ and ketamine Ⅲ group increased the intracellular cAMP at the T3 and T4 compared with ketamine Ⅰ groupand placebo (p<0.05), respectively. However,cGMP was lower in ketamine Ⅱ and ketamine Ⅲ group thanthat in ketamine Ⅰ group and placebo (P<0.05) at the T3.Morever,the mean arterial blood pressure was higherin ketamine Ⅱ and ketamine Ⅲ group at T4. Only the patients of ketamine Ⅲ group required less inotropic drugsafter operation. Conclusions Ketamine can reduce the expression of adhhension molecular CB3 and intracellularcAMP, cGMP in neutrophils from patients associated with CPB.

Objective To evaluate the effect of ORM1 genetic polymorphism on the time-course of muscle relaxation induced by rocuronium.Methods Seventy American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status [or Ⅱ patients,aged 25-55 yr,scheduled for elective gynecological laparoscopic surgery,with body mass index of 20-25 kg/m2,were enrolled in this study.Anesthesia was induced with iv midazolam and fentanyl and target-controlled infusion of propofol.After the patients lost consciousness,neuromuscular block was assessed with TOF Watch-SX using single stimulation of the ulnar nerve.When the maximal twitch depression was achieved,tracheal intubation was facilitated with rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg.The patients were mechanically ventilated.End-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure was maintained at 35-45 mmHg.The onset time,nonresponse time,clinical duration,75％ recovery time and recovery index of rocuronium were recorded.Peripheral venous blood samples were collected before surgery for determination of concentrations of plasma alpha1 acid glycoprotein,C-reactive protein (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay)and albumin (by biochemical method).ORM1 genotypes were detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism.The patients were divided into 3 groups according to the ORM1 genotypes:wild homozygote (ORM1*F1/*F1) group (AA group),mutation heterozygote (ORM1'F1/*S)group (AG group) and mutation homozygote (ORM1*S/*S) group (GG group).Results There were 40 cases in group AA,25 cases in group AG,and 5 cases in group GG.There were no significant differences in plasma alphal acid glycoprotein,albumin and C-reactive protein concentrations between the three groups (P＞0.05).Compared with group AA,the clinical duration,75％ recovery time and recovery index of rocuronium were significantly prolonged (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the onset time and nonresponse time in AG and GG groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion ORM1 genetic polymorphism is one of the genetic factors which affect the time-course of muscle relaxation induced by rocuronium.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficiency of perforator pedicled propeller flaps for soft-tissue coverage of the lower leg and foot defects.Methods From July 2007 to December 2011,twentyfive cases with soft-tissue defects of the lower leg and foot were cured by using the perforator propeller flaps.The origins of the perforator were 18 cases from peroneal artery,six cases from posterior tibial artery and 1 case from dorsal foot artery.The minimum of the flap scale was 4-9 cm,and the maximum was 10-33 cm.Results All cases were followed-up from 1 to 26 months.All the flap pedicles were smooth with a satisfied appearance.The donor sites were sutured directly in 9 cases and cured with skin-grafting in 16 cases.Three cases suffered from vein congestion,two cases were cured by incisions in the distal parts of the flaps,one flap had necrosis of the distal 1/3 part and was cured by skin-grafting.Conclusion The perforator pedicled propeller flap is a simple,safe and useful flap.It has more advantages than other pedicled flaps for softtissue coverage of the lower leg and foot defects.
