Objective To observe the effect of carvedilol and metoprolol in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and its effect on TNF-α and IL-6.Methods 94 cases of CHF were randomly classified into carvedilol group with 47 cases and metoprolol group with 47 cases, which were treated with metoprolol and metoprolol,respeetively.The clinical effects and the lovels of TNF-α and IL-6 were compared.Results The clinical effeetive rate in carvedilol group was significantly higher than that in metoprolol group( P < 0.05 ).After treatment, the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly decreased in both groups (P < 0.05 ).Moreover, the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in carvedilol group were significantly lower than those in metoprolol group after treatment (P < 0.05).Conclusion Carvedilol in improving clinical effective rate and decreasing the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 was better than metoprolol,whieh played an important role in treatment of CHF.

Objective To study the ketone luo acid tromethamine analgesia in patients with knee osteoarthritis joint replacement in advance of inflammatory factor and the influence of stress state. Methods Choice for knee osteoarthritis knee joint replacement patients 61 cases, were randomly divided into control group (30 caese) and the observation group (31caese), the control group only received intravenous anesthesia compound epidural block, on the basis of the observation group receied ketone luo acid tromethamine analgesia in advance, the contrast analysis of two groups of patients with preoperative and postoperative VAS score, cytokines and cortisol levels. Results The observation group of patients with postoperative pain VAS score (24 h, 48 h, 72 h) were significantly lower than control group (P<0.05);Observation group with 24h after IL - 8, TNF alpha level significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05), the observation group after 48h of IL-6, IL-8, TNF-a levels were significantly lower than control group (P<0.05).0bservation group 24h after surgery in patients with Cor significantly lower than the control level (P<0.05), after 48 h Cor and ACTH level observation group were significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Ketone luo acid tromethamine analgesia in advance can obviously relieve knee osteoarthritis pain after joint replacement, and can significantly reduce inflammatory factor levels, reduce the postoperative patients with stress state.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association between serum level of osteopotin(OPN) and disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, and explore the importance of OPN in the pathogenesis of interstitial lung disease (ILD) in RA. MethodsSixty-five RA patients and 20 healthy controls were pros-pectively enrolled. RA patients were divided into active group(n=43) and inactive group(n=22), and ILD groups (n=24) and non-ILD group (n=41). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the serum levels of OPN in patients with RA and healthy controls, and the relationship between OPN and other clinical and laboratory findings were analyzed.Results① Serum OPN tended to be significantly higher in RA patients (median, 18.0 ng/ml) than in the healthy controls (median, 14.3 ng/ml), P<0.01; ②The serum level of OPN in RA patients showed a significant positive correlation with the course of disease, numbers of tender joints , ESR and CRP, but no positive relationship was found in number of swollen joints; ③ The serum level of OPN was significantly higher in RA-ILD patients(median, 20.0 ng/ml) than that in non-lLD (median, 17.0 ng/ml, P<0.05). And there was remarkable negative correlation between the concentration of serum OPN and the value of PaO2, but no association was found with pulmonary function %VC and %DLCO. ④ Compared with the non-ILD group, the ILD group had more active disease in terms of tender joint counts and swollen joint counts, ESR, CRP(P<0.01) and the serum titer of RF-IgM,(P<0.05). ConclusionOPN plays a role in the pathogenesis of RA and is related to the disease activity. It may serve as an active disease inflammatory marker of RA . OPN may be involved in the pathogenesis of RA related ILD and is associated with the severity of pulmonary damage.

The endophytic fungi with plant growth promoting effects were screened by co-culture of each endophytic fungus and seedlings of Dendrobium officinale. Anatomical features of the inoculated roots were studied by paraffin sectioning. Morphological characteristics and rDNA ITS1-5. 8S-ITS2 sequences were applied for the taxonomy of endophytic fungi. The results showed that 8 strains inoculated to D. officinale seedlings greatly enhanced plant height, stem diameter, new roots number and biomass. According to the anatomical features of the inoculated roots, each fungus could infect the velamina of seedlings. The hyphae or pelotons were existed in the exodermis passage cells and cortex cells. The effective fungi could not infect the endodermis and vascular bundle sheath, but which was exception for other fungi with harmful to seedlings. Combined with classic morphologic classification, 2 effective strains were identified which were subjected to Pestalotiopsis and Eurotium. Six species of fungi without conidiophore belonged to Pyrenochaeta, Coprinellus, Pholiota, Alternaria, Helotiales, which were identified by sequencing the PCR-amplified rDNA ITS1-5. 8S-ITS2 regions. The co-culture technology of effective endophytic fungi and plant can apply to cultivate the seedlings of D. officinale. It is feasible to shorten growth cycle of D. officinale and increase the resource of Chinese herbs.

Intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS) is an important cause for the occurrence,development,and recurrence of ischemic stroke.Age,hypertension,diabetes,and smoking etc.are its traditional risk factors.Among them,symptomatic ICAS is the key of clinical intervention.Its treatments include intensive medical therapy,endovascular treatment,extracranial intracranial arterial bypass grafting,encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis,and external counterpulsation,etc.

An elicitor from fungus Mycenae sp. enhanced the extracellular pH of protocorms of Dendrobium candidum in two stages and also inspired the activities of PAL, POD and LOX. The different elicitors were different in enhancing the pH. The activities of PAL and POD ascended twice after elicitors were applied. The protocorms treated twice by elicitor had the higher PAL activity.

Objective To explore the operative timing and cause of death in the patients with acute cholangitis of severe type(ACST). Methods The clinical data on the treatment and the prognosis of 116 patients with ACST were analyzed retrospectively. Results 10 cases died during perioperative period.The patients who received operation within 6 hours after toxic shock all survived.Of 8 cases who received operation after 24 hours,7cases died from toxic shock and multiple organ deficiency of function (MODF) within 4 days of post-operation. Conclusion Operation should be performed before toxic shock or mental symptom occurred in the patients with ACST. The earlier the operation was performed, and the better the prognosis was. The main causes of death were delayed operative time,severe complications and senility.
