Objective To observe the clinical significance and variation of plasma B-type brain natriuretic peptide (△BNP) levels before and after treadmill exercise test (TET) in women with coronary heart disease(CHD). Methods Sixty-one women with suspected coronary heart disease were selected (except for heart failure, blood BNP levels were normal). All patients underwent coronary angiography, were divided into two groups, 25 cases in normal group and 36 cases in coronary heart disease group. Plasma BNP levels were measured before and after the TET test, and data were compared between two groups after one week.Furthermore, the levels of△BNP before and after TET in patients with different degrees of coronary artery lesions were compared. The diagnostic value of the levels of△BNP in coronary heart disease was evaluated by the re-ceiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Results The plasma BNP level was significantly increased after TET (44.20± 14.53) than that before the test (32.82±10.72) in coronary heart disease group (P<0.01). There were significant differences in levels of△BNP before and after TET in patients with different degrees of coronary lesions. The levels of△BNP were sig-nificantly higher in multi-vessel disease group than those of single and double lesion group (P<0.05). The level of△BNP was significantly higher in double lesion group than that of single lesion group (P < 0.05). When the level of △BNP=7.3 ng/L, the sensibility value and specificity value for the diagnosis of CHD was 82.4%and 81.5%. The area under curve (AUC) was 0.900, and 95%confidence interval was 0.796-0.962. Conclusion The detection of△BNP before and after TET has an important clinical significance in the diagnosis and evaluation of coronary heart disease in women patients.

A systematic review is based on randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and the reliability of its conclusion is closely related to the quality of original literature. The low quality of existing RCTs in China leads to the failure of conclusive findings in systematic reviews when evaluating the effectiveness of interventions. It is almost universal for systematic reviews to draw the conclusion that "further well-designed multicenter and large-scale RCTs are still required to confirm the beneficial effects of interventions". This paper analyzed the current status of RCTs in China, discussed the influence of including trials of low quality in a systematic review and assessed how a systematic review should be carried out under such circumstances. Furthermore, the methods to evaluate the quality of RCTs were introduced and evaluated. Finally, several strategies were proposed to improve the quality of RCTs in China: foster an honest academic and social environment, enhance the training of doctors on clinical research methodology, promote the implementation of clinical registration systems and strengthen the quality control of clinical research and the medical journals regulations on the quality of submitted papers.

The evaluation on clinical efficacy of traditional Tibetan medicine (TTM) is an important scientific subject during the development of TTM. Firstly, the authors introduced the current situations and problems in evaluation on clinical efficacy of traditional Tibetan medicine both at home and abroad in this study. Secondly, they compared the similarities and differences between TTM and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in evaluation on clinical efficacy, define their differences in details but not in nature, and proposed that TTM could selectively learn TCM's experiences in clinical research and build a specific methodology system for evaluation on clinical efficacy according to its own characteristics. Thirdly, they discussed the methodological challenges in evaluation on clinical efficacy of TTM, including the pending clinical research guidelines and disease diagnosis standards according to its own characteristics. Finally, they propound some suggestions for promoting the evaluation on clinical efficacy of TTM, including the comprehensive application of multiple research methods, overall research-based evaluation on efficacy of TTM complex intervention and selection of accepted and objective outcome indexes for efficacy evaluation.

AIM To study whether chronic administration of methylamine may induce elevation of semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) activity and initiate the injury of cardiovascular endothelium. METHODS New Zealand rabbits were treated with methylamine hydrochloride (100 mg·kg-1) by ig, once a day for 6 months. The rabbits were weighed every other week and the dosage was adjusted according to the body weight. The number of circulating endothelial cells (CEC) in the arterial blood, nitric oxide (NO) concentration in the serum and ultrastructure of endothelial cells of aorta were assessed. The plasma SSAO activity and formaldehyde concentration were assessed by liquid chromatography. RESULTS The number of CEC, NO concentration, levels of SSAO activity and formaldehyde concentration in the methylamine group were increased significantly, compared with the control group. Ultrastructure of endothelial cells in the methylamine group showed inordinate morphological changes (multiple intranuclear inclusions, karyopyknosis and karyorrhexis). CONCLUSIONChronic administration of methylamine can induce the elevation of SSAO activity and initiate the injury of cardiovascular endothelium.
