Angiosteosis is associated with increased vascular stiffness and leads to clinical manifestations such as high blood pressure and heart failure,which increases the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.Angiosteosis is considered to be ectopic deposits of calcium phosphate crystallization in the form of hydroxyapatite in cardiovascular tissue.However,the mechanism of angiosteosis is not yet clear.The pathophysiologic process of angiosteosis is similar to normal bone mineralization.Matrix vesicles (MV) play an important role in bone mineralization.Researches confirmed the existence of MV in the calcified arteries under the microscope.Angiosteosis is widely found in clinical diseases,so the studies of the mechanism of angiosteosis and the role of MV in angiosteosis are of great significance.

Objective To find out the present situation of complementary feeding, breast-feeding and children nutrition, and further explore the relationship between them. Methods Random sampling was adopted and 7302pairs of mothers and their children under 36 months were investigated by means of questionnaires. Results Breastfeeding rate was 96.8% ,but exclusive breast-feeding rate was only 37.6% . Breast-feeding rate over 12 months was 34.7% ,breast-feeding rate over 24 months was only 15.8%. Timely sucking rate was 8.4％ ,19.2% of children had too early complementary feeding, 26.8% had too late,and 43. 1% had appropriate feeding . To the children over 6months, the feeding rates of meat and eggs per week were 36. 3% and 49. 3 % , respectively. The stunting-rate was 24.0％, underweight-rate 22. 1 ％ ,and wasting-rate 8. 9 ％. The incidence rate of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) was 23.3 %. Multivariable analysis showed that growth of children was associated with diet diversity,intake frequency of eggs and meat, too early complementary feeding,prolonged breast-feeding and diarrhea, etc. Conclusion In rural areas of western China ,breast-feeding has been fundamentally popularized ,however ,the unfit complementary feeding and malnutrition of children under 36 months are common and serious ,important complementary feeding recommendations and good hygiene condition are strongly needed.

Objective: To explore diagnostic value of dynamic electrocardiogram (DCG) on coronary artery disease. Methods: A total of 100 inpatients with “angina pectoris” history from our hospital were enrolled and received 24h DCG measurement. The DCG examination results were compared with those of coronary angiography (CAG) and analyzed then. Results: Among the 100 patients, there were 85 patients with positive DCG, including 70 cases with positive CAG and 15 cases with negative CAG; and 15 patients with normal (negative) DCG, including 10 cases with negative CAG and five cases with positive CAG. With CAG as golden standard, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (accuracy) and negative predictive value of DCG in diagnosis of coronary heart disease were 93.3%, 40.0%, 82.4% and 66.7% respectively. Partial patients had “angina pectoris”, no stenosis in CAG but there’s slow blood flow. Conclusion: Dynamic electrocardiography is one of important measuring methods diagnosing coronary heart disease. It is simple, practical, safe, economic and appropriate for wide application in clinic, but its specificity is just 40.0%, so coronary heart disease cannot be excluded in negative patients.

BACKGROUND:Mesenchymal stem cel s are multipotent progenitor cel s that can be isolated from the bone marrow, adipose tissue, umbilical cord blood and so on. Mesenchymal stem cel s possess strong immunosuppressive effects on both innate and adaptive immunity.
OBJECTIVE:To summarize the immunomodulatory properties of mesenchymal stem cel s for T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, natural kil er cel s and dentritic cel s and prospect its therapeutic implication.
METHODS:PubMed and CNKI databases were searched for relevant literatures published from 2000 to 2015. The key words were“mesenchymal stem cel s, immunomodulator, T cel s, B cel s, NK cel s, dendriticc cel s”in Chinese and English, respectively. Then, 61 papers were included and further analyzed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The immunomodulatory effects of MSCs on lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, natural kil er cel s and dentritic cel s were elicited by cel-cel contact and soluble cytokines. But mesenchymal stem cel s from different sources hold different immunomodulatory effect on immune cel s. When we use mesenchymal stem cel s in clinic, some important factors, such as isolation methods, cel sources, colonization sites, should be taken into account. In order to ensure the clinical safety and effectiveness, there are stil many problems to be further studied before mesenchymal stem cel s can be widely used in clinic.

Objective: To study the effect of curcumin on cardiac remodeling and heart function change induced by adriamycin in rats. Methods: A total of 50 SD rats were randomly divided into blank control group (n=10), adriamycin group (n=20) and curcumin intervention group (n=20). General conditions of rats, including weight, hair color, diet and activity capacity, were observed. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) and left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDd) were observed by echocardiography. Rat heart was weighed and levels of cardiac collagen type Ⅰ and Ⅲ were observed using immunohistochemistry method. Results: Compared with blank control group after experiment, there were significant increase in heart weight [(168.53±26)mg vs. (208.34±31)mg], heart weight/body weight [(0.36±0.06) vs. (0.52±0.08)], and significant decrease in body weight [(469.27±34)g vs. (428.47±45)g]; significant increase in LVEDd [(4.87±0.19)mm vs. (7.49±0.83)mm], significant decrease in LVEF [(69.53±6.25)% vs. (41.46±4.38)%] and LVFS [(45.83±3.79)% vs. (17.25±2.92)%] in adriamycin group, P<0.05 all, significant increase in expression rates of collagen type Ⅰ and Ⅲ, P<0.01.Compared with adriamycin group, there were significant increase in body weight (452.46±38)g, significant decrease in heart weight (178.73±38)mg, heart weight/body weight (0.39±0.07); significant decrease in LVEDd (5.96±0.65)mm and significant increase in LVEF (53.12±5.43)% and LVFS (36.57±3.66)%, P <0.05 all; significant decrease in expression rates of collagen type Ⅰ and Ⅲ in curcumin group, P <0.01.
