Objective:To explore predictive value of arterial velocity-pulse index (AVI) and arterial pressure-volume index (API) for early atherosclerosis (AS) in middle-aged population.Methods:A total of 138 middle-aged patients hospitalized in our hospital from May 2016 to Nov 2016 were enrolled.According to coronary angiography (CAG) outcomes, they were divided into AS group (n=86) and non-AS group (n=52).Before CAG, AVI, API and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) were collected in two groups.General data and arterial stiffness indexes were compared between two groups, and the correlation among AVI, API, baPWV and general data were analyzed.Results:Compared with non-AS group, there were significant rise in AVI [(20.4±4.2) vs.(22.8±5.3)] and baPWV [(14.0±2.5) m/s vs.(16.3±3.0) m/s] in AS group,P<0.01 both.AVI was significant positively correlated with age, SBP, DBP, mean arterial pressure (MAP), pulse pressure (PP), API and baPWV (r=0.219~0.471, P<0.05 or <0.01);API was significant positively correlated with age, BMI, SBP, DBP, MAP, PP, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), AVI and baPWV (r=0.213~0.726, P<0.05 or <0.01);baPWV was significant positively correlated with age, BMI, SBP, DBP, MAP, PP, AVI and API (r=0.201~0.472, P<0.05 or <0.01).Multi-factor linear regression analysis indicated that SBP was influencing factor for AVI (B=0.162,P=0.001), SBP, DBP and HDL-C were influencing factors for API (B=-0.166~2.146,P<0.05 or <0.01), SBP and HDL-C were influencing factors for baPWV (B=0.116,-3.009,P<0.01 both).Conclusion:Both elevated AVI and baPWV can predict atherosclerosis in middle-aged population

Objective To investigate the short axis systolic function of children with single-left ventricle(LV),and to appraise the clinical value of velocity vector imaging(VVI) on assessing it.Methods The study group consisted of 14 patients with single-LV.The control group consisited of 14 age-matched normal children.VVI was used to analyse the circumferential and radial strain and strain rate of regional single-LV at the level of papillary muscle.Results Compared with values in control group,single-LV circumferential strain values were significantly lower in anterior septum,posterior septum,anterior wall,lateral wall and inferior wall(all P ＜0.05).Single-LV circumferential strain rate values were significantly lower in anterior septum,posterior septum,anterior wall,lateral wall and posterior wall compared with controls(all P ＜0.05). In control group,circumferential strain and strain rate were higher in inferior septum and anterior septum compared with other segments( P ＜0.05).Single-LV radial strain values were significantly lower in all segments compared with values in control (P ＜ 0.05).In control group,radial strain and strain rate of papillary muscle level showed no significantly difference( P ＞0.05).Conclusions Circumferential and radial systolic ventricular function are impaired in children with single-LV.VVI can beused as a quantitative tool in evaluating the short axis systolic function of single-LV.

Objective:To explore therapeutic effect and prognosis of thrombus suction in patients with acute ST seg-ment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:A total of 105 STEMI patients were enrolled and divided into thrombus suction + PCI group (n=34,received thrombus suction + PCI therapy)and routine PCI group (n=71,received routine PCI treatment).Postoperative TIMI flow, cardiac function during hospitalization,incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE)and rehospitaliza-tion within one-year follow-up after PCI were compared between two groups.Results:Compared with routine PCI group,there were significant reductions in peak values of creatine kinase isoenzyme [CK-MB,(236.62± 133.00) ng/ml vs.(186.47±69.20)ng/ml]and creatine kinase [CK,(2833.39± 198.70)ng/ml vs.(2129.59± 199.40) ng/ml],peak time of CK-MB [(12.38±6.70)h vs.(9.65±3.90)h]and CK [(12.80±8.10)h vs.(9.68± 3.50)h]after blood flow recovery,P < 0.05 all in thrombus suction + PCI group;there were downtrend of MACE (19.7% vs.8.8%)and rehospitalization rate (66.2% vs.50.0%)in thrombus suction + PCI group,but no significant difference between routine PCI group and thrombus suction + PCI group during one-year follow-up,P >0.05. Conclusion:Thrombus suction is help for improving patients condition,reducing enzymology level may be effect improving prognosis.

Objective To explore the function of infliximab in inducing remission in Crohn's disease and the effect of the inducing remission were followed up. Methods Ten patients with Crohn's disease received a infliximab, 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) and Azathioprine (AZA) therapy for inducing and maintenance remission. Crohn' s disease activity index (CDAI), C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), apartate aminotransferase, (AST), total bilirubin (TBil), conjugated bilirubin, (CB), creatinine (Scr) were evaluated at week 0, 10, 22 and 50. Simple endoscopic score for Crohn's disease (SES-CD) were evaluated at week 0, 10 and 50. Adverse reactions were also evaluated. Results At week 10, all patients achieved remission. The indicators of CDAI, CRP, ESR and SES-CD were significantly declined than those at week 0 (P＜0.01). The follow-up was terminated in one patient due to the relapse at week 30. At week 50, the indicators of CDAI, CRP, ESR and SES-CD in six patients a little bit increased compared with those at week 10, but no statistic significant (P=0. 2001、0. 0600、0. 1328、0. 4230 respectively), but significantly declined compared with those at week 0 (P =0.0005、0.0087、0.0054、0. 0163 respectively). No severe adverse reaction was observed in all patients.Conclusions Infliximab showed an exact efficacy in inducing remission in Crohn's disease. And 5-ASA and AZA were effective for maintenance remission in part of the patients after infliximab induced remission.

Objective To investigate the role of different parenting styles plays in conduct problems of 3-years-old preschool children.Methods Participants were from 148 preschools in Longhua Shenzhen,China.A structured questionnaire covering family demographic characteristics,Conners' Parent Symptom Questionnaire and Egna Minnen Betraffande Uppfostran-Parents (EMBU-P) were conducted among primary caregivers of each child.There were 9289 valid participants in the analysis and logistic regression was used to assess the relationship between three dimensions of parenting (rejection,emotional warmth and control/overprotection) and conduct problems.Results After allowing for certain confounders,parental rejection (OR =1.17,P＜0.01) and control/overprotection (OR =1.03,P＜0.01) was positively associated with conduct problems and emotional warmth was negatively related to conduct problems (OR=0.98,P＜0.01).Stratified analysis showed a significant relationship between conduct problems and both parents' rejection (OR father=1.16,P＜0.01;OR motber=1.17,P＜0.01),father's emotional warmth (OR=0.96,P＜0.01) and mother's control/overprotection (OR=1.04,P＜0.01).This relationship did not vary between boys and girls and between single and not single children.Conclusion Influence of parenting should be taken into consideration in the prevention and intervention of conduct problems.

Objective To explore the status and influencing factors of sub-health in inpatient caregivers.Methods A total of 432 caregivers met the inclusion criteria were enrolled.Suboptimal health status questionnaire (SHSQ-25) was used to evaluate the status of sub-health.Sub-health was defined as SHSQ-25 score ≥ 35.100 people undertaking routine physical examinations were enrolled as control group.The incidence and influencing factors of sub-health in caregivers were analyzed.Results (1) The caregivers group valued higher in SHSQ-25score significantly (36.9 ± 8.6 vs.27.5 ± 13.0,P ＜ 0.05).The incidence of sub-health was obviously higher in caregiver group than that in control group (69.9％ vs.39.0％,P ＜ 0.05).(2) A significant difference in the SHSQ-25 scores between female caregivers and male caregivers was observed (37.9 ± 9.0 vs.34.6 ± 7.1,P ＜0.05).The SHSQ-25 score was positively related with age (r =0.578,P ＜ 0.05) and accompanying time (r =0.507,P ＜ 0.05).Parents,children,or spouses of patients got higher scores than other types of caregivers (38.1 ±8.1 vs.31.1 ±8.8,P＜0.05).(3) Among the sub-health caregivers,only 10.9％ of them were aware of their sub-health status.Conclusion The incidence of sub-health may be higher in inpatient caregivers than the general population.Gender,age,accompanying time,and the relationship between patients and caregivers may be influencing factors for sub-health.Effective action should be taken to improve the health status of caregivers.

Objective To explore the shielding effect that Tween has made on the erythrocyte’ s surface antigen( ABO and D antigen mainly) and the stability of the RBC. Methods Various types red blood cells’ surface antigens were incubated with different concentrations of Tween,then the titers of RBC’ s surface antigen before and after incubation were compared. The erythrocyte’ s function alterations and sta-bility through the morphological obersavation,the osmotic fragility,RBC’ s own hemolysis rate,oxygen saturation( SO2 ) ,routine test of blood as well as the supernatant of free hemoglobin determination were confirmed. Results The masking effect of the Tween-20 on D antigen with the weaken titer keeping above“ +” was better and more stable than that on A,B antigen. The impact on B antigen was a little worse,and A was the worst. The advantaged concentration is about 0. 004%. Besides,the influence of Tween-80’s on B and D antigen was not apparent e-nough. Among all of the concentration,0. 74% and 0. 80% did a relatively better job,which also could keep the weaken titer above “ +”. Conclulsion The shielding effect that Tween has made on the erythrocyte’ s surface antigen( ABO and D antigen mainly) is stable,which keeps above “ +”. The morphology and function of the RBC does not change.
