OBJECTIVETo explore the effect of Tanshinone II A on severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) lung injury (ALI) rats and its possible mechanism.

METHODSSD rats were injected with sodium taurocholate to induce SAP group, and then intervened with sodium tanshinone II A sulfonate ( STS group). Simultaneously a sham-operation group (SO group) was set up. There were 24 rats in each group. The survival state and wet-to-dry weight ratio of lung tissues were observed. Activities of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in lung were determined by MPO reagent kit. Pathologic changes of lung tissues were determined by Hofbuaer method. Expression levels of three cytokines, TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) were detected by ELISA.

RESULTSThe survival state of rats in the SAP group was deteriorated. The wet-to-dry weight ratio, MPO activities, pathologic changes in lung tissues, and expression levels of TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and ICAM-1 increased significantly more in the SAP group than in the SO group (P < 0.05). Compared with those in the SAP group, the survival state of rats in the STS group was improved; the wet-to-dry weight ratio, MPO activities, pathologic changes in lung tissues, and expression levels of TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and ICAM-1 obviously decreased in the STS group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONTanshinone II A had remarkable effect on SPA LI rats, which might be associated with changing cytokines levels and attenuating infiltration of lung inflammatory cells.

Objective To explore the predictive value of P wave dispersion (Pd) and maximum P wave duration (Pmax) of 12 lead ECG in patients with atrial arrhythmia.Methods51 cases of atrial arrhythmia group from October 2013 to April 2015 in Jiashan County First People's Hospital, patients with frequent atrial premature atrial tachycardia, were examined for the determination of P wave dispersion by 12 lead electrocardiograms (Pd) and maximum P wave duration (Pmax), and 53 healthy persons (control group) were compared.ResultsAtrial arrhythmia group Pd and Pmax were significantly higher than the control group, the rate is Pmax=100ms with Pd=40ms high prediction of atrial arrhythmia sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic, Pd=40ms=100ms combined with Pmax diagnosis, the sensitivity increased, but the specificity and diagnostic rate of decline.ConclusionPd is an effective index to predict atrial arrhythmias, and the combined detection of Pd and Pmax can improve the diagnostic sensitivity.

Objective: To investigate the effect of administrative HDL-C (high density lipoprotein cholesterol) level on adverse cardiovascular events after discharge in elder patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Methods: A total of 325 STEMI patients treated in our hospital from 2010-04 to 2012-07 were retrospectively studied. According to administrative HDL-C level, the patients were divided into 2 groups as High HDL-C group, n=139 and Low HDL-C group, n=186. The basic and clinical conditions, in-hospital treatment, death and the medication, adverse cardiovascular events during 6 and 12 months follow-up period were compared between 2 groups.
Results: The patients with in-hospital reperfusion therapy was higher in Low HDL-C group, and Low HDL-C group had the higher ratio of emergent PCI treatment, all P<0.05. During follow-up period, High HDL-C group had less patients with β-receptor blocker treatment, less non- fatal MI, adverse cardiovascular events and re-hospitalization, all P<0.05. Cox regression analysis showed that low HDL-C level (HR=0.558, P=0.024) and diabetes mellitus (HR=1.528, P=0.040) were the risk factors of adverse cardiovascular events, while emergent PCI (HR=0.47, P=0.001) was the protective factor in STEMI patients after discharge.
Conclusion: The lower administrative HDL-C level in elder patients with STEMI had the higher risk of adverse cardiovascular events after discharge.

Objective To explore the mechanism of VEGF treating cerebral ischemia. Methods A rat model of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was set up by nylon suture embolization. The naked plasmid DNA encoding vascular endothelial growth factor(pUCCAGGS/hVEGF 165 ) was directly injected through skull into the ischemic areas of brain. After seven days the rats were killed. RT-PCR was used to measure the expression of VEGF mRNA in the brain tissues, and immunohistochemistry was appllied to detect the expression of VEGF, Fas and Fas L in the brain tissues. Results Compared with control group, VEGF expression significantly increased in the therapeutic group(P

ObjectiveTo study a standardization to establish data element in medical data resource share.MethodsThe library of data element's structural glossary items was established frist, then whole data element was established by selecting structural glossary items, finally, the input of data element's character was executed.ResultsA standardization method to establish data element was desigened based on definition, structure and national standard of data element.ConclusionIt's a important work to share medical data resource that establish data element by standardization, and it must be followed correlative standard and select logical method.
