Objective To establish a calcification mode in vitro of human vascular smooth muscle cells (HVSMCs) induced by β-GP. Methods Primary HVSMCs were obtained from human embryo by plant method and confirmed by stain with α-sm-actin antibody. The cells after 4-6 passages were divided into two groups.The control group was incubated with normal DMEM medium while the calcification group was incubated with the medium containing 10 mmol/L β-glycerophosphate for 10 days.Calcification was confirmed by alizarin red S stain and alkaline phosphatase(ALP) assays. Results The primary cells observed by S-P stain were positive and the cells after being stained were pale yellow. After being induced with β-GP, the cells of calcification group began concentric growth and formed vesicles. Alizarin red S staining showed that the reaction of calcifying nodules was red,ALP activity was higher than that of controls at various time points(4 d,6 d,8 d and 10 d,P<0.01 ).Conclusion The HVSMCs could be induced into calcification in vitro by β-GP, and this model contribates to further studies of vascular diseases.

Objective To study the effects of obstructive sleep apneas on endothelial function and autonomic modulation. Methods From June 2009 to June 2011, male patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) were consecutively enrolled in this study. Patients with an apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) of greater than 15 and without previous treatment for OSAHS were included as Group OSAHS and obese subjects with an AHI of less than 5 were included as non-OSAHS controls (Group Control). Electrocardiography and beat-to-beat blood pressure were continuously recorded from the radial artery by applanation tonometry which was synchronized with polysomnography recording. Endothelial function was measured by arterial augmentation index (AAI). Spectral analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) and blood pressure variability (BPV) were computed for cardiac parasympathetic modulation (high frequency power, HF); sympathetic modulation (low frequency power, LF), sympathovagal balance (LF/HF power of R-R variability, LF/HF) and BPV sympathetic modulation (BPV LF) in normalized units [total power of the components/(total power-very LF power)×100]. Results Finally, 27 moderate-severe OSAHS patients and 22 non-OSAHS obese controls were recruited in the Group OSAHS and Group Control, respectively. In Group OSAHS, the age was 43.3±9.3 year-old, body mass index (BMI) was 36.8±8.7 kg/m2; in Group Control, the age was 42.9±8.6 year-old, BMI was 34.4±7.9 kg/m2; there were no significant differences in age and BMI between the Group OSAHS and Group Control (all P>0.05). The baseline AAI (12.5%±2.2% vs. 8.2%±2.1%) and BPV LF (68.3%±13.5% vs. 61.1%±11.7%) of the Group OSAHS were significantly higher than those of the Group Control (all P<0.05). And after overnight sleep, systolic BP (143.7±14.2 vs. 132.8±13.3 mm Hg), diastolic BP (87.7±7.7 vs. 78.6±5.5 mm Hg), HRV LF (69.7%±14.4% vs. 64.3%±12.1%), HRV LF/HF (3.7±2.0 vs. 2.3±1.3) and BPV LF (77.8%±15.6% vs. 68.3%±13.5%) of the Group OSAHS were significantly increased (all P<0.001), while HRV HF was significantly decreased (21.1%±9.3% vs. 27.5%±10.3%, P<0.05) from baseline.

Objective To evaluate the interventional treatment of Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS)with regard to different types of the disease.Methods One hundred and fifty-nine consecutive cases with BCS underwent interventional treatments with regard to different types of the diseases,including percutaneous angioplasty (PTA),transcatheter thrombolysis,endovascular stent implantation and modified transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(MTIPS).Among them,147 cases that underwent complete follow-up were enrolled in this study.Simple obstruction of HV,membranous obstruction of IVC,membranous obstruction of IVC combined with thrombosis in the distal lumen and segmental obstruction of IVC constituted 13.6/(20),66.0/(97),6.1/(9)and 14.3/(21/147),respectively.The technical success rate of each type Was determined.They were followed up for(67.3±9.0)months (16 h-104 months).Overall primary patency rote was evaluated.The late effect on liver function Was analyzed according to the Child-Push score.Results The primary patency rate of PTA was 65.6/ (86/131)and the secondary pateney rate was 96.9/(124/128).The primary patency rate of stent implantation was 78.9/(15/19)and the secondary patency rate Was 92.3/(24/26).One patient of type Ⅲa that received recanalization,catheter-directed thrombolysis and PTA in IVC died of hemoptysis 72 h after the procedtire.One patients of type I b who received MTIPS died of DIC 16 hrs after the procedure.And one patient of type Ⅳb who received MTIPS died of hver failure 13 months after the procedure.Twelve patients died in 7-79 months after the interventional procedure due to unrelated causes.At the end of follow-up,the liver function of the patients Was improved. Conclusions Optimal application of various vascular interventional techniques has a satisfactory primary and secondary patency rate and improves the long-term liver function.

Stroke is characterized by a group of acute cerebral vascular diseases which attack acutely with focal neurological deficits. Residual motor deficits often sojourn after stroke. Cortical stimulation, which is a technique developed many decades ago, has recently re-emerged as a promising method for researchers in their quest to causally probe cortical representations of sensorimotor and cognitive functions and to facilitate the treatment of various neuropsychiatric disorders. The article summarizes the research progress of cortical stimulation in the promotion of motor function recovery after stroke, the method of operation, the possible mechanisms and the prospect.

Objective This pre-DIC rat models were constructed by injecting LPS in order to reveal the relationship and significance among tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI),platelet, fibrinogen, prothrombin time and activated partial thromboplastin time. Methods Enzyme-labeled immunosorbent assay was used to detect blood plasma TFPI in pre-DIC state rats(n=16),DIC state rats(n=8)and health rats(n=8).Platelet, fibrinogen, prothrombin time and activated partial thromboplastin time in the same rat were detected. Results TFPI increased first(pre-DIC state)and then decreased(DIC state)in the blood plasma of rata, but the levels of TFPI were always higher than that in the normal state. Conclusions TFPI is more sensitive and accurate to monitor the pro-DIC state than routine examination, which is very useful in the early diagnosis of pre-DIC state.
