We utilized the mass-acceleration concept according to Newton'a second law of motion to establish a mathematieal model of left ventricular active diastolic force by twodimensional and Doppler echocardiography. Twenty normal control subjects and 31 patients with coronary heart diseases were tested. The results showed that the left ventricular active diastolic force of the patients with coronary heart diseases was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.001).The authors believe that left veatricular active diastolic force is a reliable candidates for assessing the left ventricular diastolic function.

Objective To discuss the diagnostic value of distal subclavian artery flow velocity tracing for proximal segment severe stenosis.Methods 56 cases with 112 subclavian arteries were examed by ultrasonography and multidetector CT angiography respectively,then the flow velocity tracing of distal subclavian arteries had been compared with CT results.Results In all 112 subclavian arteries,there were 37without proximal segment stenosis,32 with mild stenosis,12 with moderate stenosis,and 31 with severe stenosis.Innominate arteries and other parts of subclavian arteries had no stenosis.In diagnosis of subclavian artery proximal severe stenosis using single phase single peak waveform,the sensitivity,specificity,positive likelihood ratio,and negative likelihood ratio were 83.9 ％,96.3 ％,22.7,0.063 respectively.The sensitivity,specificity,positive likelihood ratio,and negative likelihood ratio were 100 ％,93.8 ％,16.1,0 respectively,in terms of diagnosis by application of acceleration time ≥0.11s.Conclusions The statistics of acceleration time ≥0.11 s and single phase single peak waveform have high application value in diagnosis of subclavian artery severe stenosis respectively.

Objective To explore the relationship of the mean color vessels density (MCVD) and pathologic microvessel density(MVD) in rectal cancers and their relation with T stags and lymph node metastasis.Methods MCVD were caculated preoperationly with transrectal color power angiography(TRCPA).After operation MVD was assessed immunohistochemically using anti-CD105 monoclonal antibody.The relationships within MCVD, MVD and T stages and lymph node metastasis were analysed.Results There were positive correlation between MCVD and MVD (r=0.763, P＜0.01) in rectal cancer.There were significant difference of MCVD and MVD in both the depth of carcinoma invasion and metastasis of lymphatic nodes( P＜0.05).Conclusions MCVD can display features of the blood supply and distribution of pathologic microvessels and reflect the development of rectal cancers.MCVD is a credible index to choose available treatment and to evaluate prognosis before operation of rectal cancer.

Objective To compare the clinic significance of four clinical scoring systems in evaluating prognosis of acute pancreatitis: bedside index for severity in acute pancreatitis(BISAP), acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHEⅡ), Ranson’s scoring system, computed tomography severity index (CTSI) in AP. Methods Patients visited our clinic with AP (n=114) in recent 2 years were retrospectively analyzed. BISAP and APACHEⅡscores were obtained at 24 hours after admission; Ranson ’s score was obtained at 48 hours after admission and CTSI are obtained was obtained at 72 hours after admission. Results of four scoring system were compared under different causes and different severity of the dis?ease. Correlation between BISAP score and the other three scores were analyzed and the predicative value of all four scoring systems for severity of AP and death were also compared. Results The mean values of four scoring systems show no signifi?cant difference in AP patients with different etiology (P>0.05). The BISAP score is positively correlated with APACHE-Ⅱ, Ranson ’s score and CTSI score (P<0.01). The four scoring systems all present good predictive value on the severity of AP and death (P<0.01). Conclusion The four scoring systems can all be applied to grading and prognosis for AP of various causes. BISAP is a simple, prompt, economical scoring system in clinical practice.

The crystal structural data of TACE, MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3 and MMP-9 were obtained from PDB database, and then their catalytic domains' properties including conformation, molecular surface hydrophobicity and electrostatic potential were analyzed and compared by using Insight II molecular modeling software. It was found that the conformation and molecular surface hydrophobicity of catalytic domains of TACE and MMPs were not obviously different, but the molecular surface electrostatic potential of catalytic domain of TACE and MMPs had obvious differences. The findings are helpful in the Rational Drug Design of TACE selective inhibitor.

CONCLUSION Tamoxifen can inhibit the proliferation of the anterior pituitary cell of rats and resultin the cell apoptosis.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the effects of different routes of administration of tranexamic acid on coagulation function and amount of bleeding in patients with one stage posterior surgery of thoracic tuberculosis. METHODS:40 patients suffered from thoracic tuberculosis in our hospital from Jan. 2011 to Dec. 2013 were randomly divided into intravenous group(5% Glucose injec-tion 100 ml+tranexamic acid 10 mg/kg,through an intravenous drip at 30 min before closing the wound) and topical application group(5% Glucose injection 10 ml and tranexamic acid 10 mg/kg,through soaking the wound before closing the wound)with 20 cases in each group. Other 15 cases suffered from the thoracic tuberculosis in our hospital from Jan. 2009 to Dec. 2010 were includ-ed in control group. 3 groups received one stage posterior surgery of thoracic tuberculosis,interbody fusion and internal fixation. The difference of hemoglobin,coagulation function and the amount of suction drainage were observed before and after surgery, and followed up. Bone graft fusion and therapeutic condition of tuberculosis were observed in the study. RESULTS:There was no statistical significance in postoperative suction drainage between intravenous group and topical application group (P>0.05),but their decrease was more significant than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistically difference in fiber protease,prothrombin time or activated partial thromboplastin time among 3 groups(P>0.05). The difference value of he-moglobin in control group before and after operation was significantly higher than in intravenous group and topical application group,with statistical significance (P<0.05);there was no statistical significance between intravenous group and topical applica-tion group(P>0.05). 55 patients were all followed up and bone graft of all cases were fused,and all patients were cured and no case recurred. CONCLUSIONS:Tranexamic acid by intravenous application or topical application can reduce hemorrhage and ane-mia after operation of thoracic tuberculosis,and has no effect on blood coagulative system.
