Objective To investigate the effects of different ligation position,vena coronaria variation and lidocaine on myocardial infarction size and mortality in rats Methods Totally 120 male SD rats were divided into four groups with 30 rats in each group: low ligation with invisible vena coronaria,low ligation with visible vena coronaria,high ligation,and high ligation plus lidocaine Results MI was successfully created in 930% rats of high ligation groups and in 673% rats of low ligation groups The mortality was 433% in rats of high ligation groups,only 133% in rats when lidocaine in use Conclusion High ligation increases the success rate of rat model of myocardial infarction and the application of lidocaine decreases the mortality of the rat model

Recently , the country actively explores the pattern of an integrated healthcare which enables the as-sociation among hospitals of different levels , aimed to achieve maximum utilization of medical resources and lead a reasonable distribution of the patients .By reviewing the practices related to the integration of healthcare in Beijing , Shanghai , Zhenjiang and Wuhan city , this paper sums up in five typical mechanisms , i.e.organization and manage-ment mechanism , human resource management mechanism , interest distribution mechanism , service continuity and resources sharing mechanism .The effects of these practices were analyzed and the faced challenges were discussed . The following points were made clear during analysis and discussion:the sustainability of the collaboration mode and organization structure , human resource supports and incentive methods , health insurance guidance for hospitals and patients , two-way referral system and supporting measures , and building of information system .Then we put forward some suggestions , hoping to offer some references to the establishment of integrated healthcare in other regions .

Objective To compare echocardiographic parameters of left ventricular function in mice under anaesthesia with those in conscious condition.Methods Forty mice were randomized to anesthetic group and nonanesthetic group,all mice were examined in conscious state at baseline,then anesthetic group had intraperitoneal injection of ketamine and xylazine,the non-anesthetic group received intraperitoneal injection of the same volume of saline.Echocardiography was performed every 10min and every 15min after 30min time point until 60min.ResultsAnesthetic agent strikingly brought down heart function of mice.The nadir of heart rate,fractional shortening(FS),cardiac output(CO) occurred during 10-20min period and could not be restored to normal value at baseline even after 60min.Left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD) and left ventricular end-systolic diameter(LVESD) increased to maximum at 20min point,then decreased to value at baseline until 60min.LVEDD could be restored to baseline value while LVESD remained larger than baseline at 60min.Coefficient of variation of echocardiographic measurement in non-anesthetic group was smaller than those in anethetic group.FS and heart rate of all mice were highly corrrelated by regression analysis(r=(0.884),P
