Aspirin is a primary and secondary preventive medication for ischemic cerebrovascular diseases .Artery thrombotic events are still possible to occur after taking aspirin for a long time,and this indicates aspirin resistance(AR).At present, there is still lack of gold standard for the diagnosis of AR. It is usually interpreted as the loss of the biological effect of aspirin's antiplatelet aggregation and the role of preventing cerebral thrombosis events. Once AR occurs, other safe and effective altematives to antiplatelet agents should he used timely. This article reviews the concept, epidemiology, mechanisms, laboratory methods for detection and clinical intervention of AR.

BACKGROUND:A favorable application prospect has been showed in basic and clinical research of porous material implantation in recent years. OBJECTIVE:To retrospect the progress in basic and clinical research of porous materials in the past 10 years and to summarize the existing problems and clinical prospects. METHODS:A computer-based search of PubMed and CNKI databases was performed for relevant articles using the keywords of“porous material, bone implantation”in English and Chinese, respectively. The included articles were related to porous materials and composite materials used in vitro, in vivo or in clinic, as wel as porous materials closely related with bone defect repair or bone tissue engineering. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Hydroxyapatite, titamium and its al oys, polyethylene, calcium phosphates are porous materials that have been studied presently. Increasing experimental studies have shown that the porous materials have good histocompatibility and osteoinductive features in vitro and in vivo. But the uniform standards for porosity size in favor of tissue growth that is fastest and most effective have not been obtained. It is unclear how to gain and control the porosity of porous materials that are irregular, how to control the elasticity modulus, and how to gain 100%porosity effectively. Furthermore, whether the inflammation and exposure of porous materials in clinical application are related to the above-mentioned problems are unable to confirm.

Objective To report a method of handling dural injury with cerebrospinal fluid leakage during the spinal operation process and analyze its effect,to comparatively analyze with the existing methods and to find a better way processing this problem.Methods A total of 36 patients with dural injury and cerebrospinal fluid leakage during the spinal operation process were collected.Among these clinical cases,there were 15 males,21 females,age ranged from 26 to 78 years old,average 58 years old.During the spinal operation process,the injured dura was sutured or repaired.After that,the dural wound was glued with a piece of muscle or fascia by a kind of medical glue named KangPaiTe.After the operation,broad -spectrum antibiotics and timely fresh dressing changing for the wound were applied.The nature and volume of the drainage fluid was documented and analyzed.When the volume of the drainage fluid was below 50mL per day,the drainage tube was pulled away,and the incision of the drainage tube was sutured again.Results The cerebrospinal fluid leakage lasted from 0 day to 4 days,average 1.5 days;the drainage tube was placed from 1 day to 5 days,average 2 days;no wound infection and other complications occurred among all the clini-cal cases included in this study.Conclusion After the injured dura was sutured or repaired,gluing the dural wound with a slice of muscle or fascia by a kind of medical glue named Kangpaite is a better method of handling dural injury with cerebrospinal fluid leakage.

AIM: To explore regulation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced elevation of Ca 2+ intracellular level in alveolar macrophages(AMs) from patients with chronic bronchitis by Angelica Sinensis and nifedipine.METHODS:AMs was obtained from 7 patients with chronic bronchitis and 6 normal controls by bronchoalveolar lavage and intracellular Ca 2+ level was detected after adding Angelica Sinensis, nifedipine or LPS to the supernatant of AMs loaded by Fura-2. RESULTS: In contrast with normal control group (99.65?32.21 nmol/L), intracellular Ca 2+ level in AMs from chronic bronchitis group (189.47?23.69 nmol/L) was increased significantly in the absence of extracellular Ca 2+ but not 1 mmol/L. Intracellular Ca 2+ level in AMs from chronic bronchitis group were significantly increased by adding 10 ?g/mL LPS to the supernatant of AMs. LPS-induced elevation of intracellular Ca 2+ level in AMs from chronic bronchitis group was completely inhibited by Angelica Sinensis or nifedipine.CONCLUSION: Both Anelica Sinensis and nifedipine may inhibit activation of AMs from patients with chronic bronchitis by reducing LPS-induced elevation of intracellular Ca 2+ level in AMs, suggested that these two medicines may inhibit non-specific inflammation of airways in chronic bronchitis.

AIM: To study the time-dependent effects of diabetes mellitus (DM) on the development of cardiac remodeling in untreated streptozotocin (STZ)-induced rats with acute myocardial infarction (MI). METHODS: The left anterior descending coronary arteries were ligated 10 weeks after DM induction without any therapy. Transmission electron microscopy, echocardiography, heart weight to tibial length ratios, histological examination, microarray analysis, and real time-PCR were utilized to monitor the changes up to 56 d. RESULTS: After MI, the diabetic rats experienced lower survival rate compared to non-diabetic animals. The pathophysiologic changes indicated that DM accelerated the cardiac remodeling post-infarction. In primary examination, 164 genes related to cardiac remodeling were found to be candidates for hierarchical analysis, such as leucine-rich PPR-motif containing (interleukin-6 signaling pathway), procollagen type I and III, fibronectin-1, RT1, and TIMP-1, etc. The gene expression profile at 14 d in diabetic rats were comparably similar to both 14 d and 28 d in non-diabetic rats, while such changes at 28 d and 56 d in diabetic rats was also similar to the ones at 56 d in non-diabetic rats. CONCLUSION: The accelerated cardiac remodeling of post-infarction in STZ-induced untreated diabetic rats seems be associated with the different profile of gene expressions.
