Objective To explore the significance of treadmill exercise test (TET) in identifying left main coronary artery(LMD) obstruction from proximal left anterior descending(LAD) obstruction.Methods Patients with positive in the TET of the Central Hospital of Dalian from Jan.2008 to Dec.2013 were enrolled in this study and they were divided into LMD group with 21 cases and LAD group with 35 cases according to the results of coronary angiography.Retrospectively study was conducted to analyze the exercise time,the start time of ST segment change,the lead of ST segment between groups.Results Lead aVR ST segment elevation(≥0.10 mV) was 85.7% (18/21) in the LMD group and 62.9% (22/35) in the LAD group.Lead aVR ST segment elevation in the LM group was ((0.16 ± 0.07) mV,higher than in the LAD group ((0.11 ± 0.07) mV ; t =2.614,P < 0.05).Accompany ST segment depression of leads and cumulative ST segment depression were (5.7 ±1.7) pcs and (1.13 ±0.42) mV in LMD group,significantly higher than those of LAD group((4.6 ± ± 1.8) pcs and (0.87 ± 0.32) mV ; t =2.314,2.634,P < 0.05).The occurrence rate of ST segment depression (≥0.10 mV) in leads V2 and V6 were 33.3% (7/21) and 90.5% (19/21) in LM group,significantly higher than that in LAD group (11.4% (4/35) and 62.9 % (22/35) ; x2 =3.990,5.105 ;P < 0..05).The start time of ST segment deviation of LM group was significantly earlier than that of LAD group ((199.8 ± 70.8) s vs.(273.7 ± 127.3) s;t =-2.787,P < 0.01).The differences were not statistically significant in terms of the exercise time between groups ((315.0 ± 120.0) s vs.(376.1 ± 110.0) s;t =-1.948;P > 0.05),the rate for achieving target heart rate(33.3% (7/21) vs.48.6% (17/35) ; x2 =1.244 ; P > 0.05) and the Duke score ((-11.8 ±7.2) vs.(-8.4 ±6.8) ;t =-1:772;P>0.05).Conclusion Compare with patients with the LAD disease,ST segment elevation of lead aVR is significantly higher induced by treadmill exercise test in patients with left main disease.Meanwhile,the lead accompanied with ST segment depression is significantly higher,and the start time of ST segment deviation is significantly earlier.

BACKGROUND:The quantity and quality of seed cel s is a critical bottleneck of the development of vascular tissue engineering. To address this issue, stem cel-derived endothelial cel s have been a hot spot in this field due to their potential in providing the ideal seed cel s.
OBJECTIVE:To elucidate the effect of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) supplementation combined with hypoxic culture condition on the lineage-specific differentiation of embryonic stem cel s into endothelial cel s.
METHODS:Serum-free medium mTeSR?1 was applied to cultivate H9 cel s in vitro. A conditioned medium containing 50μg/L vascular endothelial growth factor was utilized to induce H9 cel s to differentiate into endothelial cel s under the hypoxic culture condition (5%O2). The cel under normal condition (5%CO2) with or without vascular endothelial growth factor served as controls. The phenotype and function of human embryonic stem cel s-derived endothelial cel s were assayed by immunofluorescence staining, quantitative RT-PCR, and low-density lipoprotein uptake experiment.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, the H9 cel s were induced to be differentiated into endothelial-like cel s more efficiently when they were cultivated under a conditioned medium with vascular endothelial growth factor supplementation under the hypoxic condition. These differentiated cel s not only expressed some important surface markers of endothelia cel s, including kdr, pecam, but also took in low-density lipoprotein to form microvessle-like structures. This culture system supports a synergy effect of vascular endothelial growth factor and hypoxic environment that can efficiently promotes the lineage-specific differentiation
of embryonic stem cel s into endothelial cel s with good phenotype and functionality.

Objective:To study the in vitro antimicrobial activity of traditional Chinese medicine herbal pair of euphorbia humifusa Willd. and portulaca oleracea L. . Methods: The antibacterial effect in vitro of the traditional Chinese medicine herbal pair and the single herb of euphorbia humifusa Willd. and portulaca oleracea L. was studied on staphylococcus aureus, escherichia coli and pseudo-monas aeruginosa by the 2-fold dilution method and the broth micro-dilution method in a 96-well plate. The minimum inhibitory con-centration ( MIC) , minimum bactericidal concentration ( MBC) and the diameter of inhibition zone were determined. Results:The ex-perimental strains showed the different sensitivity among the traditional Chinese medicine herbal pair and the single herb. The antibac-terial and bactericidal activity of the traditional Chinese medicine herbal pair was the most obvious(P<0. 05). As the temperature in-creasing, the antibacterial activity of all water extract on different experimental strains changed. The results of MIC and MBC showed that the effects of water extract on escherichia coli were strongest, that of stapphylococcus aureus were secong, ant that of pseudomonas aeruginosa were relatively weak. Conclusion:The traditional Chinese medicine herbal pair of euphorbia humifusa Willd. and portulaca oleracea L. has antibacterial and bactericidal activity in varying degrees on the experimental strains with some differences, and the changes in the application forms of traditional Chinese medicines has great influence on the antibacterial and bactericidal ability.

Objective:
To investigate the inhibitory effect of bortezomib (PS-341) on enterovirus replication.
Methods:
The methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was used to value cell viability in response to PS-341 treatment. The protein and viral gene mRNAs were measured by real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR).
Results:
Our result show that after enterovirus (EV)-D68 or coxsackievirus B3 (CV-B3) infected cells were treated with PS-341, compared with the control group, the inhibition rate of the intracellular viral RNA reached 50%~70% or 60%~90%. PS-341 was added after RD cells were infectd with EV-D68, the intracellular virus titer was down-regulated by 90.23% and 83.40% in the supernatant, the intracellular virus titer was down-regulated by 93% and 90% in the supernatant and in RD cells. PS-341 had no effect on virus adsorption and importing. The cells were treated with PS-341 and apoptosis-inhibiting agent Ac-YVAD-CHO, the viral RNA replication inhibition rate reached 10%-30%, and the expression of viral protein was increased, which indicated that the inhibitory effect of PS-341 on viral replication was attenuated.
Conclusions
According to the result of the study, PS-341 could reduce apoptosis by regulating the proteasome pathway, inhibiting the gene replication and assemble, without effect on virus adsorption, entry and release. In addition, PS-341 also inhibited the replication of CV-B3 in cells, which suggest that PS-341 has a broad spectrum anti-EVs effects.

Early screening based on computed tomography (CT) pulmonary nodule detection is an important means to reduce lung cancer mortality, and in recent years three dimensional convolutional neural network (3D CNN) has achieved success and continuous development in the field of lung nodule detection. We proposed a pulmonary nodule detection algorithm by using 3D CNN based on a multi-scale attention mechanism. Aiming at the characteristics of different sizes and shapes of lung nodules, we designed a multi-scale feature extraction module to extract the corresponding features of different scales. Through the attention module, the correlation information between the features was mined from both spatial and channel perspectives to strengthen the features. The extracted features entered into a pyramid-similar fusion mechanism, so that the features would contain both deep semantic information and shallow location information, which is more conducive to target positioning and bounding box regression. On representative LUNA16 datasets, compared with other advanced methods, this method significantly improved the detection sensitivity, which can provide theoretical reference for clinical medicine.
