OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for improving the clopidogrel rational use in cerebral infarction secondary preven-tion. METHODS:Medical cases of 471 patients with acute cerebral infarction in neurology department in a hospital from 2013 to 2014 were retrospective surveyed to collect the utilization rate of clopidogrel and the combination of clopidogrel with proton pump inhibitors(PPIs)and aspirin,and the rationality was analyzed. RESULTS:The utilization rate of clopidogrel in cerebral infarction secondary prevention was 93.84%;the combination rate with PPIs was 52.49%,of which,51.72% had no drug selection or com-bined treatment basis;the combination rate with aspirin was 40.72%,cardiogenic cerebral infarction accounted for only 3.9%, non-cardiogenic cerebral infarction accounted for 96.1%,and recurrence of cerebral infarction in high-risk patients accounted for 31.11%. CONCLUSIONS:Clopidogrel in patients with cerebral infarction secondary prevention is widely used in the hospital,has high combination rate with PPIs and aspirin and low guide compliance rate. Clopidogrel should be enhanced pharmacy services, comply with evidence based medicine and improve the rationality of medication.

Objective The aim of this study was to assess the clinical value of pro-gastrin releasing peptide (ProGRP) , squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag), cytokeratin 19 fragment antigen 21-1 (Cyfra21-1) and carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA) in the diagnosis and clinical stage of lung cancer in Chinese patients.Methods Patients with lung cancer and benign lesions confirmed by pathology were enrolled in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2013 to October 2014.The serum levels of four tumor markers (ProGRP, SCC-Ag, Cyfra21-1 and CEA) were measured using immunoassays before treatment.The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUCROC) of these four tumor biomarkers were analyzed for the diagnosis of lung cancer.Results A total of 134 patients were finally analyzed, including 73 patients with lung cancer and the other 61 patients with benign lung disease.The diagnostic sensitivity of serum Cyfra21-1 to lung cancer was 67.1％, the specificity 45.1％, the AUCROC 0.658.The diagnostic sensitivity of the panel including ProGPR, Cyfra21-1 and CEA to lung cancer was 75.3％ , the specificity 57.4％ , the AUCROC 0.702.In the lung cancer group, the AUCROC of ProGRP over 65 ng/L to diagnose small cell lung cancer was 0.954;the AUCROC of SCC-Ag over 1.5 μg/L to diagnose squamous cell lung cancer was 0.788;the AUCROC of Cyfra21-1 to diagnose non-squamous-non-small-cell lung cancer was 0.716.In small cell lung cancer patients, the level of ProGRP in limited-disease small cell lung cancer (LD-SCLC) were significantly higher than that in extensive-disease small cell lung cancer (ED-SCLC) (P =0.005).Conclusion This panel of serum tumor markers including ProGRP, Cyfra21-1 and CEA improves the diagnostic specificity and sensitivity in patients with high-risk lung cancer.The serum CEA level of advanced lung cancer patients is significantly increased.The high level of serum ProGRP predicts the ED-SCLC.

Objective To study the arthroscopic operative procedure and the result for knee osteoarthritis. Methods 49 patients with knee osteoarthritis treated by arthroscopic operation from May 1993 to September 1999 were reviewved.Arthroscopic lavage,debridement or debridement Combined with drilling was performed on different patients. Results The average follow-up period was 5 years.The scale improved 36.0 after operation.No serious complication was found. Conclusions Arthroscopic debridement for osteoarthritis is satisfactory in the long-term efficacy and drilling of grade Ⅳ subchondral bone does not improve long-term outcome.

Objective To study the values of arthroscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of knee osteoarthritis. Methods A retrospective survey of 75 patients with knee osteoarthritis treated by arthroscopic operation from May 1993 to Sep 1999 was conducted.the Tindings by radiograph and those in operation were compaired. Results The average follow-up period was nearly 5 years.The scale improved 35.7 after operation.No serious complication arose. Conclusions The more severe the condition, the more consistent radiographic diagnosis is with arthroscopic findings.Radiography reflects the site of the lesion better.50% of the patients at the intermediate and late stage have meniscal lesions.It seems that meniscal lesion does not affect surgical results;having loose body indicates better results.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects and safety of Xingnaojing injection combined with butylphthalide on neuro-logical function,cognitive function,coagulation function and living activity. METHODS:A total of 106 patients with middle cere-bral artery infarction in Wuhan University People's Hospital during Jun. 2014-Dec. 2015 were divided into control group and obser-vation group according to random number table,with 53 cases in each group. Besides routine symptomatic treatment,control group was given Butylphthalide soft capsules 0.2 g,po,tid. Observation group was additionally given Xingnaojing injection 20 mL added into 0.9% Sodium chloride injection 250 mL,ivgtt,qd. Both groups were treated for 14 d. The neurological function score (NI-HSS,NFDS),cognitive function score (MoCA,MMSE),coagulation function indexes (PT,APTT,FIB),BI score were ob-served in 2 groups before and after treatment. The occurrence of secondary remote damage and ADR were recorded. RESULTS:Eight patients withdrew from the study,including 3 patients of control group and 5 of observation group. Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in neurological function scores(NIHSS,NFDS),cognitive function scores(MoCA,MMSE),coag-ulation function indexes or BI scores between 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,NIHSS,NFDS scores and FIB of 2 groups were decreased significantly compared to before treatment,and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). MoCA,MMSE,BI scores in 2 groups were increased significantly,and PT and APTT in 2 groups were prolonged significantly,and the observation group was significantly higher or longer than the control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). The incidence of secondary remote damage in observation group (11.3%) was significantly lower than control group (41.5%),with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:For middle cerebral artery infarction,the application of Xingnaojing injection combined with butylphthalide can reduce the risk of remote damage,promote the recovery of neurological function and cognitive func-tion,and improve coagulation function and living activity with good safety.

AIM: To construct a genomic regulatory network based on gene expression profiling of hypertrophic cardiomyocytes induced by phenylephrine in neonatal rats. METHODS: Cultured neonatal hypertrophic cardiomyocytes were induced by phenylephedrine. The gene expression profiles of these cells were assessed by using a cDNA microarray, and the microarray data were further analyzed by Pathwaystudio and Agilent Literature Search software. RESULTS: A genes/proteins interaction network was constructed with 450 nodes and 592 edges by analyzing the gene expression in hypertrophic cardiomyocytes and literature mining. The network belongs to scale - free network by topological analysis, and 14 genes/proteins as key nodes, including PTPN11, TRAF6, HSPA8, VIM, RPS6KA3, PTHRP, GRB2 and PI3K, were predicted. Based on GO analysis, the genes/proteins associated with metabolism, signal transduction and cytoskeleton may play important roles in the process of cardiomyocytes hypertrophy induced by phenylephedrine in neonatal rat. CONCLUSION : The genomic regulatory network based on gene expression profiling and literature mining may provide integrated clue to elaborate hypotheses about the evolution of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.

Stilbene glycoside (TSG) has been shown to have many beneficial properties. It is therefore essential to understand the absorption and metabolism of TSG in detail. We determined the recovery of TSG and its metabolites (TSG sulfate/glucuronides) in rat gastric contents, gastric mucosa, portal vein plasma, celiac arterial plasma, bile, and urine after administration of 15mg of TSG in 0.5mL physiological saline or incubation for 20min in situ in the stomach of rats. Within 20min, (64.0±9.8)% of the administered TSG disappeared from the stomach; later, TSG was recovered in both free and conjugated forms in plasma and bile, but not in urine. On the other hand, only free TSG was detected in the gastric contents and mucosa; it was also detected in the portal vein plasma as (48.1±3.5)% of the total TSG (all forms of TSG). However, the proportion of free TSG in the celiac arterial plasma and bile decreased to 4%-10%. In addition, the proportion of free TSG to total TSG in the liver microsome incubation mixture after TSG was incubated in liver microsome at 37℃ for 30min was very low [(10.6 ± 2.6)%]. These results indicate that TSG could be quickly absorbed from the rat stomach, conjugated in liver and excreted in bile. Such novel information would be helpful for the use of TSG as a beneficial natural product which may improve its proposed efficacy in preventing chronic diseases.

Objective To observe the immediate effects of the sustained forced-blowing exercise (SFBE) on the phonation function in young healthy people. Methods 43 young healthy people were asked to pronounce a longest /a/ in a comfortable situation within one breath for 3 times before and after SFBE. The sound files were analyzed with computer sound analysis system, with the parameters of mean maximum phonation time (MMPT), mean frequency (MF) and mean sound pressure level (MSPL). Results The MMPT and MSPL increased (P< 0.01) after SFBE. There was no significant difference in the MF (P>0.05) before and after SFBE. Conclusion The SFBE can improve the MPT and MSPL of the healthy people obviously, without affections on the MF.

Objective To discuss spinal fusion effect of lumbar intertransverse process in rabbits by using bone marrow stromal stem cells(MSCs)in conjunction with bone morphogenetic protein(BMP)and freeze-dried demineralized bone matrix(FDBM)as scaffold.Methods To separate and cultivate MSCs in vitro,with FDBM as scaffold,osteogenesis was induced by BMP.Sixty Japan white rabbits were randomly divided into three groups.Group A was MSCs+FDBM+BMP,group B was FDBM,group C was autogenous ilium cancellous bone(AIB).Lumbar intertransverse process was fused in lumbar five to six.Rabbits were killed at 8 weeks after operation.The general observation and imageology were used to assess the fusion condition.To estimate the implantation using DR image.Gray scale analysis of DR image caculated the osteogenic density and acreage.The CT scan and three-dimensional reconstruction was used to observe the fusion configuration of lumbar intertransverse process.Results The fusion mass character in group A and C was hard,the morphology was not regulation.The fusion mass was almost absorbed in group B beside little tissue approach transverse process.There were high density image between intertransverse processes,osteogenic density were nonuniform in group A and C.There were nonunion in group B.Consistent callus were existed between intertransverse process in group A and C.There were not consistent callus in group B.Group A was similar to group C in osteogenesis density and acreage.Group B was the worst.There were cartilage and newly born bone trabecular formation in group A and group C.Between transverse process were mainly fiber tissue in group B.Conclusion MSCs in conjunction with BMP and FDBM has the similar osteogenic capability to the AIB and better osteogenic capability than that of FDBM alone when spinal fusion of lumbar intertransverse process is performed in rabbits.

Impact of air pollution on cardiovascular d is eases has been established. As the main source of city air pollution, particulat e matter has been demonstrated an independent correlation with incidence and mor tality of cardiovascular diseases. The mechanisms are not clear. Several plausib le mechanistic pathways have been described, including inflammation induced by o xidative stress, the followed enhanced coagulation/thrombosis resulted in instab ility of atherosclerosis, the promotion of ischemic heart diseases and imbalance of autonomic nerve tone resulted in the occurrence of arrhythmia. The article p rovides a review of the mechanisms on air pollution and cardiovascular diseases and suggestions for further research.
