Objective Study the differential diagnosis value of the axis of "no man's land" in wide QRS complex tachycardia.Methods Retrospectively analyse the axis of "no man's land" in 137 patients with wide complex tachycardia who had undergone intracardiac electrophysiologic studies,use the algebraic sum of the deflections in leads I and III to plot the QRS axis,to observe the rule of arrhythmia of "no man's land" appearance.Results Eighteen of 137 patients who had wide complex tachycardia had the axis of "no man's land",among which 16 patients had left idiopathic ventricular tachycardia,and 2 patients had wide complex supraventricular tachycardia they had accessory pathway conduct anterogradely.Conclusion The axis of "no man's land" is helpful in differential diagnosis of ventricular and supraventricular tachycardias with abberency or bundle branch block.

Treatment of gynaeeological cancer frequently results in the loss of ovarian function and menopausal syndrome.The most effective treatment is hormone replacement therapy (HRT).According to the current studies,HRT does not increase the risk of recurrence or death in patients with early stage endometrial cancer and uterine leiomyosarcomas. The safety of HRT in ovarian cancer patients is inconclusive. Cervical squamous cell carcinoma, vaginal cancer and vulvar cancer are not contraindications for HRT. Estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) is contraindicated for low-grade endometrial stromal sarcomas. Therefore,after integrated risk assessment and discussion,patients with severe menopausal symptoms can be treated with HRT to improve the quality of life.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) onthe collagen metabolism in human keloid fibroblasts with RNA interference (RNAi).Methods Human keloid fibroblasts (KFB) in vitro were transfected by 3 pairs of specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) CTGF plasmid synthesized for human CTGF,respectively.Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) contributed to the screening of the best siRNA in interfering of CTGF expression in human keloid fibroblasts to construct the plasmids,with the application of RNAi,to test the changes of expression level and collagen content of CTGF in transfected keloid fibroblasts through RT-PCR and Western blotting compared to its control groups.ResultsThe 3rd pair (C3) siRNA- CTGF expression of genes and proteins was remarkably inhibited after being interfered with human keloid fibroblasts,with inhibitory rates of 86.8 ％ and 65.6 ％.ConclusionsKeloid fibroblasts transfected by plasmid siRNA-CTGF effectively inhibite the expression of CTGF and deposition of collagen,and CTGF promotes the collagen synthesis in keloid development.

Objective To comparatively study the difference status of lymphocyte subsets and activated T lymphocyte between preoperation and intraoperation,and to investigate the influence of operation on lymphocyte subsets and their activation in the pa-tients with malignant tumors.Methods The lymphocyte subsets and their activated cells were determined in 42 cases of common malignant tumors by the flow cytometry.Results The levels of CD3 + ,CD4 + ,CD8 + cells during intraoperation were obviously de-creased compared with preoperation,the difference in CD3 + and CD4 + had statistical significance(P <0.05),while the difference of CD8 + had no statistical significance(P >0.05).NK,CD19 + ,CD3 + HLA-DR+ were significantly increased,the difference of NK and CD19+ had no statistical significance(P >0.05),while the difference with CD3 + HLA-DR+ had statistical significance(P <0.05). Conclusion The cellular immune function in the patients with malignant tumor is in inhibitory status.Operation makes the cellular immune function to be further injured.The stress responses of operation and trauma increase the expression of NK,CD19 and acti-vated T lymphocytes.It is suggested that the patients with malignant tumor should use the immune response modifier before opera-tion to enhance the cellular immune function for ensuring the effect of postoperative radiochemotherapy sequential treatment.

Background Our previous study demonstrated that microglial activation is closely associated with photoreceptor apoptosis in rd mice.Recent studies on central nervous system (CNS) showed that activation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase plays a key role in the microglia activation and neural cell death.However,the mechanism of NADPH oxidase during the retinal degeneration and the effect of NADPH oxidase inhibitor on photoreceptor apoptosis are concerned.Objective The aim of this study was to further explore the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by NADPH oxidase in the retinal degenerative process of rd mice and protection of NADPH oxidase inhibitor on photoreceptors.Methods Sixty rd mice at postnatal day 9 (P9) were randomized into the experimental group and the control group by throwing coins method.Apocynin,a NADPH oxidase inhibitor,was intraperitoneally injected in the dose of 10 mg/kg (0.01 ml/kg) once daily for 5 days (P13) in the experimental group,and the equal amount of PBS was used in the same way in the control group,and 10 C57BL/6N mice without injection of any drugs served as the wild type mice group.All the mice were sacrificed in P14 for the preparation of retinal sections.The expression of ROS in the retina was detected by dihydroethidium (DHE) fluorescence staining.Expression level of rhodopsin mRNA in the photoreceptor of the mice was determined by real-time PCR,and the thickness of retinal outer nuclear layer (ONL) in the mice of the experimental group and the control group was measured using hematoxylin & eosin staining.The use and care of the animals complied with the Statement of Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology.Results DHE staining showed that the ROS presented with the red fluorescence in the mouse retinas.In the rd mice of the experimental group,the ROS fluorescence intensity was dramatically enhanced in comparison with C57BL/6N mice,but weakened in comparison with the rd mice of the control group.Real-time PCR revealed that the relative expressing level of rhodopsin mRNA in the photoreceptor was (4.21±0.33) in the experimental group and (0.93±0.24) in the control group,showing a significant difference between them (t =2.360,P =0.000).The thickness value of retinal ONL was (35.95±1.63)μm in the mice of the experimental group,which was significantly higher than that in the mice of the control group ([23.17±1.38] μm) (t=3.850,P=0.016).Conclusions In the retinal degeneration of rd mice,activation of NADPH oxidase increases the ROS production.Apocynin can slow the apoptosis procedure of photoreceptor cells of rd mice.

Objective:Clonidine,by activating peripheral α-sbrenoceptors, produces transient pressor response after i.v.injection in anesthetized animals.Moxonidine, with at least 40-fold higher affinity to I1-imidazoline receptors than to α2-adrenoceptors,produces also a transient pressor response. This work was designed to investigate whether I1-imidazoline receptors are involved in this pressor effect of moxonidine. Methods:Female spontaneously hypertensive rats(SHRs,aged 14-16 weeks)were anesthetized with urethane.To observe the transient pressor responses,moxonidine 0.1,0.3,1.0mg/kg(intravenous,i.v),2.0μg(intracerebroventricular,i.c.v.)and 1.0,10.0mg/kg(intragastric,i.g.)were administrated in different groups of rats.To evaluate the roles of α1-adrenoceptors,α2-adrenoceptors and I1-imidazoline receptors in the transient pressor responses to moxonidine, prazosin(10.0μg/kg),yohimbine(2.0mg/kg),phentolamine(0.2mg/kg),idazoxan(1.0mg/kg)or yohimbine+idazoxan(2.0mg/kg+1.0mg/kg)were intravenously given to the animals before moxonidine 0.3mg/kg (i.v.).Results:It was found that i.v.moxonidine produced a greater pressor response than clonidine when producing a similar reduction of blood pressure.This effect of moxonidine was not influenced by prazosin, but was partly inhibited by yohimbine, phentolamine or idazoxan,and completely blocked by the combination of yohimbine and idzaxon.Neither i.c.v.injection nor i.g. administration of moxonidine induced transient pressor responses.Conclusion:The transient pressor response of i.v. moxonidine is mediated by both peripheral I1-imidazoline receptors and α2-adrenoceptors.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of trimetazidine(TMZ) and atorvastatin on coronary no-flow/slow-flow phenomenon (CNFP/CSFP) emergency pereutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)Methods Thirty-two patients with acute myocardial infarction were selected as our subjects,who hospitalized from April 2007 to May 2012 after PCI with CNFP/CSFP.Patients were administrated with the TMZ (60 mg/d)and atorvastatin (20 mg/d) for 6 months besides the routine therapy.The changes of the clinical symptoms including ECG exercise test,coronary flow of coronary angiography(CAG) were recorded and the level of serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP),matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9),tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6(IL-6) were measured before and after the treatment.Results (1)The symptoms of the patients were improved remarkably;the effective rate was 87.5％ (28/32).The improving rate of ECG was 90.6％.The CTFC of patients after treatment was (20.17 ± 4.36),significantly lower than that of before treatment (35.34 ± 7.43,t =2.409,P ＜ 0.05).(2) The levels of hs-CRP,MMP-9,TNF-a and IL-6 at after treatment were (3.34 ±0.47) mg/L,(173.09 ±42.19) μg/L,(8.47 ±2.09) μg/L,(89.37 ± 18.72) ng/L,lower than that of before treatment ((12.34 ± 2.43) mg/L,(972.68 ± 131.91) μg/L,(23.54 ± 7.48) μg/L,(154.39 ± 42.07) ng/L),and difference were significant (t =2.537,2.789,2.691,2.430,P ＜ 0.01 or P ＜0.05).Conclusion The therapy approach of TMZ and atorvastatin plus routine treatment of nitrate and aspirin showed a better therapeutic effect on CNFP/CSFP.The causes of CNFP/CSFP may relate to inflammation.

Objective To investigate the effect and safety of rotational power-driven thrombectomy therapy through intrapulmonary for acute massive pulmonary thromboembolism.Methods Sixteen patients of acute massive pulmonary thromboembolism diagnosed by CT and pulmonary angiography were treated with Straub Rotarex system.The successful rate,release of clinical manifestations and the blood hemodynamic changes were observed and analyzed.Results The clinical manifestations were improved remarkably in all the 16 patients,arterial partial pressure of oxygen,saturation of arterial blood oxygen,shock index,Miller score and mPAP were (56.7± 13.4) mm Hg,84.1 ± 10.4)％,(1.27 ±-0.39),(22.7±11.4) and (36.3 ±9.4) mm Hg respectively before treatment,and (92.2 ± 8.6) mm Hg,(96.6 ± 12.7) ％,(0.57 ± 0.42),(12.1 ± 7.8)points and (21.9 ± 7.3) mm Hg respectively after treatment,which were all improved significantly (t =-2.794,2.601,-2.592,-2.638,-2.617,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Rotational power-driven thrombectomy therapy through intrapulmonary is an effective and safe technique for the treatment of acute massive pulmonary embolism.

Objective To investigate the specific silencing of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) in a nude mouse keloid model,using RNA interference (RNAi) technique,and to provide the basis for gene therapy of keloid.Methods The nude mouse keloid model was established,and then transfected in vivo with well-amplifiating plasmid.The mRNA expression levels of CTGF mRNA and type Ⅰ collagen mRNA were detected with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).The distribution and protein expression levels of CTGF and type Ⅰ collagen were determined quantitatively using immunohistochemistry.Results The expression of CTGF at mRNA and protein levels was decreased in the experiment group,and the expression of type Ⅰ collagen at mRNA and protein levels was also decreased after transfection,as compared with negative control group and blank group,with significant difference between groups (P＜0.05).Moreover,the expression of type Ⅰ collagen and CTGF was positively correlated (r=0.979).Conclusions Keloid type Ⅰ collagen can be decreased through in vivo inhibiting CTGF expression.The transfection of CTGF gene in vivo may have effects on type Ⅰ collagen generation,and thus inhibit the keloid growth.

Objective · To investigate whether the quality of embryos will result in biochemical pregnancy or arrest of embryo development in the freezing and thawing cycles of in-vitro fertiliazation-embryo transfer (IVF-ET). Methods · The clinical data of patients who accepted IVF-ET in Center of Reproductive Medicine, Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2015 to June 2016 were retrospectively studied. The data includes 115 cycles of biochemical pregnancy, 64 cycles of arrest of early embryonic development and 871 cycles of ongoing pregnancy after frozen thawed embryo transfer. We compared the embryo score on the third day after embryo transfer (D3), the blastocyst development rate and the blastocyst grade in the three groups. Results · There were no significant differences in the period of infertility, the age of the patients and their spouses, the endometrial thickness, the estrogen and progestogen levels of the day of transplantation among the three groups (P > 0.05). The scores of most frozen thawed embryos on D3 were from 6 to 8, and the scores were not statistically significant among the three groups (P > 0.05). The proportion of transplanted blastocyst on D5 was higher than that on D6 in the three groups, but there was no significant difference among the three groups (P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in the proportion of inner cell mass of blastocysts which were scored as Grade A&B or Grade C among the three groups. Nevertheless, in the arrest of early embryonic development group, the proportion (52.2%) of the trophoblast of blastocysts which were cored as Grade C was significantly higher than the proportion (35%) in biochemical pregnancy group and the proportion (29.3%) in ongoing pregnancy group (P<0.05). Conclusion · The quality of embryos is not necessarily related to biochemical pregnancy, but the score of trophoblastic may be related to the arrest of early embryo growth.
