ObjectiveTo explore the inflammatory factors C-reactive protein (CRP),interleukin (IL)-6,tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and white blood cell (WBC) count differences between acute myocardial infarction(AMI ) thrombolysis treatment and unthormbolysis treatment,and find out the relevance between the inflammatory factors and the prognosis.MethodsAccording to the condition of accepting AMI thrombolysis treatment,the 229 patients of AMI were divided into the thrombolysis group( 131 cases) and the unthrombolysis group(98 cases).The levels of myocardial troponin I (cTnI),creatine kinase(CK),creatine kinase isoenzyme-MB (CK-MB) were detected at the time of patients sent into the hospital for the immediate,6-hour later and 24-hour later.After 6-month's follow-up,prognosis was compared between two groups.ResultsTwenty-seven cases lost in the thrombolysis group.One case died within 6 months and the mortality was 1.0％(1/104) in the thrombolysis group,and 6 cases died within 6 months and the mortality was 6.1％(6/98 ) in the unthrombolysis group.There was significant difference between two groups (P ＜ 0.05 ).The levels of CK,CK-MB in the thrombolysis group advanced,and compared with that in the unthrombolysis group,there were significant differences (P ＜ 0.05 ).The levels of TNF-α,IL-6 in the thrombolysis group were significantly higher than those in the unthrombolysis group (P＜ 0.05),and CRP and WBC count had no significant differences between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The repatency rate was 79.4％( 104/131 ) in the thrombolysis group,the levels of TNF- α,IL-6 in repatency patients were higher than those in non-repatency patients.There were significant differences(P ＜ 0.05 ).ConclusionsThe thrombolysis is an effective way to cure AMI.The increase of TNF- α,IL-6 after the thrombolysis is considered to be related to reperfusion injury,and CRP,IL-6,TNF-α and WBC count can forecast the inflammation of myocardial necrosis and take an impotant role in predicting the prognosis of the AMI.The antiinflammatory and antioxidation treatment is significant to improve the prognosis of the AMI.

OBJECTIVE:To prepare oxymatrine pellets and study the pellets' properties.METHODS:Oxymatrine pellets were prepared using an experimental low-temperature extrusion-spheronization granulator.L9(34)orthogonal design was used to obtain optimal formulation.The micromeritic properties and in vitro dissolution of the pellets at different dosage were determined.RESULTS:Oxymatrine pellets prepared by extrusion-spheronization were round and smooth and well-distributed.The optimal technical conditions were as follows:water∶MCC=0.90∶1;spheronization velocity=35 Hz;spheroniza-tion time=5 min;extrusion velocity=40 Hz.The in vitro dissolution was more than 75% within 30 minutes.CONCLUSION:The process of preparing pellets by extrusion-spheronization was simple and feasible and the quality of pellets was excellent.

Objective: The topographical mapping technique of brain evoked potential was used to observe the changes of the functional activities in the cortical somatosensory area I (SⅠ) during imitating the sensation conduction along the Meridian (SCM). The formation mechanism of sensation conduction was discussed here. Method: 26 healthy adult volunteers were chosen as observe object. Cerebral electric signal processing system was used to record topographical mapping of evoked potential in SⅠ outside the skull. Soft paintbrush was used to slightly brush the Gall Bladder Meridian (GBM) to imitate the sensation conduction. Result: Evoking responses appeared in both foot and face representation areas in SⅠ of 11 healthy volunteers without conduction sensation during imitation of sensation conduction along the GBM (SCGBM), which coincided with the distribution of responses evoked in SI during sensation conduction along Meridian . 15 healthy volunteers were offered imitation of SCGBM as well as brushing through the upper arm additionally, while, the results showed that the evoking responses appeared in the foot, the upper arm and the face representation area of SⅠ. So, it formed a high potential response belt that was similar to the course occurred during the imitation of SCM. Conclusion: The external stimulation along the meridian course can change the distribution of evoking responses in SⅠduring stimulating point. The results provide experimental evidence for the supposition that “activation in sequence in periphery” is the decisive factor for the formation of SCM.

Objective To study the effect of Vincristine-loaded intact human erythrocytes on tumor cell in vitro. Methods VCR was loaded in intact human erythrocytes using a modified hypotonic preswelling technique. The proliferation of K562 cells after incubation with VCR-loaded erythrocytes was detected by MTT. Cellular cycle and apoptosis of K562 cells were analyzed through FACS staining with PI/Rhodamin123, and morphology of apoptotic K562 cells and their nucleus were observed through staining with Hoechest33258.

Objective To explore the optimal method and condition for controlling release of vincristine (VCR) from VCR-loaded erythrocytes and enhancing the stability of carrier erythrocytes. Methods Erythrocytes were loaded into human erythrocytes using the modified hypotonic pre-swelling and isotonic resealing technique, and then with VCR, and they were treated with glutaraldehyde in concentration of 0.16% and 0.25% respectively. After storing at 4℃ for indicated time, the amount of VCR was determined with HPLC to compare their drug-release rate, and the degree of hemolysis in the supernatants was observed to compare the fragility of VCR-loaded erythrocytes treated with 0.16% glutaraldehyde with that with 0.25%, VCR-loaded erythrocytes treated with PBS, and VCR-loaded erythrocytes exposed to different hypotonic sodium chloride in different concentrations. Results The VCR-accumulated release rate increased in glutaraldehyde-treated VCR-loaded erythrocytes as well as untreated group during preservation. The VCR-accumulated release rate of 0.25% glutaraldehyde-treated group decreased by 71.67?4.20%, which was significantly slower than untreated VCR-loaded erythrocytes and 0.16% glutaraldehyde-treated group. After storing at 4℃ for 21 days, no significant changes at erythrocyte morphology was found in VCR-loaded erythrocytes treated with 0.25% glutaraldehyde, whereas untreated VCR-loaded erythrocytes and those treated with 0.16% glutaraldehyde can be stored only for 5d and 7.5d respectively. As compared to un-treated VCR-loaded erythrocytes, no significant change of osmotic fragility was seen in 0.25% glutaraldehyde-treated group, but significant increase in osmotic fragility was seen in 0.16% glutaraldehyde-treated group. Conclusion 0.25% glutaraldehyde could optimally block the membrane of VCR-loaded human erythrocytes and enhance their stability.

Objective: To investigate the distribution features of somatosensory cortical evoked potential map with augmented blocking of the sensation transmission along meridians.Method: The EEG-4400 electro-encephalogram (EEG) and ND-1 brain electrical activity mapping were adopted on 11 volunteers with remarkable sensation transmission along meridians, showing that the sensation can transmit to head and face after stimulating the points below the knee joints. Also, special observation was made on accurate location of somatosensory cortical evoked potential map in 10 people without sensation transmission.Result: Observation on 11 volunteers with remarkable transmission along the Three Foot-yang Meridians showed that they presented with concurrent high potential reactions in somatosensory cortical lower limbs and face without blocking the augmented sensation transmission along the meridians; however, when mechanical pressure was exerted to block the sensation transmission,only one reaction in the lower limbs occurred in the somatosensory cortical evoked map and the other one in the face disappeared. Conclusion: Peripheral tissue evoking is the decisive factor for transmission along the meridians.

ObjectiveTo analyze the dead reasons in treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) by emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (EPCI) during perioperation. Methods The clinical characteristics of the dead patients,results of EPCI and reasons of death were retrospectively analyzed in 473 patients with AMI who received EPCI treatment during March 2004 to March 2011. ResultsAmong the 18 cases(3.8％)dead patients,there were 8 case with three-vessel lesions,5 cases with two-vessel lesions, 2 cases with single vessel lesion and 3 cases with left main lesion. Nine patients were accompanied with hypertensions,5 cases with diabetes mellitus, 1 case with old myocardial infarction, 2 cases with old cerebral infarction, 1 case with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease complicated by severe pneumonia, and 1 case with chronic renal insufficiency. Nine patients died of cardiogenic shocks , 4 cases (22. 2％) of heart ruptures, 2 cases (11.1％) of noreflow,1 case (5.6％) of massive hemorrhage of the upper alimentary tract, 1 case (5.6％) of respiratory failure and 1 cases (5.6％) of refractory ventricular fibrillation.ConclusionsPrimary reasons for perioperative death were cardiac shock and heart rupture in treatment of acute myocardial infarction by EPCI. Multi-vessel lesion, complications with hypertensions and diabetes mellitus may serve as succumbed factors of death.
