Objective: To study the e ects of Heying Anxin Fang on cardiac function and intracellular Ca2+ concentration in cadiocyte of chronic congestive heart failure rats. Methods: Animal models of heart failure were induced by subcutaneous injection of a large dose of ISO, and were randomly divided into model group, Shenmai injection group, captopril group, high, middle and low dosages of Heyinganxin Fang group and normal group with 9 in each group. To determine the indexes of LVSP, LVEDP, +dp/dtmax ,-dp/dtmax and heart weight, and determine Ca2+ concentration in cardiomyocytes by ow cytometer. Results: Compared with normal group, the indexes of heart weight, Ca2+ concentration and LVEDP in model group increased, but indexes of LVSP, +dp/dtmax, -dp/dtmax decreased obviously(P

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of serum omentin-1 levels in obesity and essential hypertension patients and its related influencing factors. Methods One hundred and thirty patients with obesity admitted to the Cadre Health Care Department of Navy General Hospital from Jun. 2011 to Dec. 2013 were enrolled in this study. According to the blood pressure,130 obesity patients were divided into simple obesity group( n=64 )and obesity hypertension group( n=66 ). Sixty non obesity patients with normal blood pressure were enrolled as control group. Serum omentin-1 levels were assessed by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA). Association between omentin-1 and biochemical parameters( including systolic blood pressure( SBP), diastolic blood pressure(DBP),body mass index(BMI),waist hip ratio(WHR),fasting blood glucose(FBG), triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),high density lipoprotein cholesterol( HDL-C),fasting insulin( FINS),insulin resistance index( HOMA-IR)and high sensitive C reactive protein(hs-CRP))were analyzed. Results Serum omentin-1 levels in control group was(26. 7 ± 5. 1)μg/L, significantly higher than that in simple obesity group and obesity hypertension group((22. 1 ± 3. 2)μg/L,(18. 3 ± 3. 4)μg/L;F=33. 7,P﹤0. 01),and serum omentin-1 levels in obesity hypertension group was significantly lower than that in simple obesity group( t =21. 5,P ﹤0. 05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum omentin-1 negatively correlated with BMI,WHR,SBP and HOMA-IR( r = - 0. 447,- 0. 340,- 0. 350,-0. 397;P﹤0. 01). There were no significant relations between omentin-1 and age,DBP,FBG,FBG,TG,TC, LDL-C,HDL-C,FINS and hs-CRP( P ﹥0. 05 ). Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that HOMA-IR, BMI and SBP were independent influencing factors of serum Omentin-1. Conclusion The serum omentin-1 level decreases in the obesity hypertension patients. Omentin-1 is negatively correlated with BMI,SBP,and HOMA-IR, which may contribute to the underlying pathophysiology of obesity and essential hypertension.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the status of hospital infection of elderly in internal medicine,in order to prevent and control hospital infection of them.METHODS A restrospective survey on 157 cases of hospital(infection) of elderly from Aug 2003 to Apr 2005 was conducted in internal medicine.(RESULTS)The results showed that the high risk wards were in geriatrics,neurology,endocrinology and(cardiovascular) departments.The high risk season was in winter.Respiratory tract was the most common(infective) site.Fungi were the main pathogens.CONCLUSIONS The hospital infection of elderly should be(controlled) better,geriatrics department is the key(control) unit.Winter is the key control season.The diagnostic level of clinician about the hospital(infection) of(edlerly) should be enhanced and the antibiotic must be used reasonably.

OBJECTIVE To analyze distribution and resistance of bacteria from lower respiratory tract infection in elderly patients,and provide reference for rationl use of agents in clinics.METHODS To collect phlegm specimens from lower respiratory tract infection in elderly patients from Jan 2003 to Jun 2005 in our hospital,to identify pathogens and drug sensitivity test,the results of examination were judged according to NCCLS standard.RESULTS Among 752 pathogens strains,Gram-negative bacteria and Gram-positive cocci were 70.9% and 17.6%,respectively;the most common pathogens of them were Klebsiella pneumoniae(ESBLs 27.7%)14.89%,Pseudomonas aeruginosa 14.36%,Escherichia coli(ESBLs 35.4%)12.77%,Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA 59.0%)11.70%,and fungi 11.57%.CONCLUSIONS The bacteria from lower respiratory tract infection in elderly patients are distributed extensively.In Gram-positive cocci,resistance to vancomycin is not found elsely.Gram-negative bacteria are especially sensitive to imipenem,but with some resistant strains.
