Objective:To investigate esomeprazole combined with early enteral nutrition on the immune function and intestinal flo-ra in the elderly by patients with severe acute pancreatitis. Methods:Totally 78 elderly by patients with severe acute pancreatitis were selected and randomly divided into the observation group (39 cases) and the control group (39 cases). The control group was treated with early enteral nutrition therapy, and the observation group was treated with esomeprazole additionally. The treatment course was 14 days. Results:The total effective rate of the observation group was higher that of the control group (P<0. 05). The abdominal pain relief time, recovery time of bowel sounds, abdominal distension relief time, and the time of serum amylase returning to normal and u-rine amylase returning to normal in the observation group were all better than those in the control group (P<0. 05). The incidence of intestinal flora disorders in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (P<0. 05). After the treatment, CD3+, CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ increased in both groups (P<0. 05), and those in the observation group were higher than those in the con-trol group (P<0. 05). Serum amylase and urine amylase decreased in both groups after the treatment (P<0. 05), and the decrease in the observation group was more significant than that in the control group (P<0. 05). No serious adverse drug reactions appeared in both groups. Conclusion:Esomeprazole combined with early enteral nutrition in the elderly by patients with severe acute pancreatitis shows significant effect, and the effect may be related with improving the immune function and intestinal flora.

Real-time free breathing cardiac cine imaging is a reproducible method with shorter acquisition time and without breath-hold for cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. However, the detection of end-diastole and end-systole frames of real-time free breathing cardiac cine imaging for left ventricle function analysis is commonly completed by visual identification, which is time-consuming and laborious. In order to save processing time, we propose a method for semi-automatic identification of end-diastole and end-systole frames. The method fits respiratory motion signal and acquires the expiration phase, end-diastole and end-systole frames by cross correlation coefficient. The procedure successfully worked on ten healthy volunteers and validated by the analysis of left ventricle function compared to the standard breath-hold steady-state free precession cardiac cine imaging without any significant statistical differences. The results demonstrated that the present method could correctly detect end-diastole and end-systole frames. In the future, this technique may be used for rapid left ventricle function analysis in clinic.

Objective: To investigate the effects of a Chinese herbal formula for calming liver and suppressing yang on the protein expressions of vascular tissues in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs), and to explore the mechanism of efficacy. Methods: Twenty SHRs were randomly divided into model group and treatment group. Another 10 Wistar-Kyoto rats were selected as a normal control. SHRs in the treatment group were administered with the formula for calming liver and suppressing Yang for 4 weeks. During the course of treatment, blood pressure and heart rates were monitored every week and the ethology of rats, including irritability and rotation endurance was also evaluated. After treatment, thoracic aorta was obtained and its proteins were separated by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). The differentially expressed proteins were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and database query. Results: The formula for calming liver and suppressing yang not only decreased the systolic blood pressure and heart rate, but also improved irritability degree and rotation endurance time of SHRs. This experiment had established the 2-DE graph of protein expressions of vascular tissues in SHRs. Compared with the normal group, the expressions of 15 proteins were down-regulated, and 12 proteins were up-regulated in vascular tissues of the model group. The formula for calming liver and suppressing yang treatment up-regulated expressions of 10 proteins in the 15 down-regulated proteins, and down-regulated 8 proteins in the 12 up-regulated proteins in vascular tissues of SHRs. After analysis, 16 obviously differentially expressed proteins were found, and 13 of them were identified. Conclusion: The formula for calming liver and suppressing yang can improve the ethology of SHRs. The mechanism is probably concerned with regulating the protein expressions of vascular tissues.
