A Review Many studies indicate that apoptosis is involved in the progression of congestive heart failure. At present, mechanisms that mitochondria regulates cell apoptosis is widely accepted.Cardiac myocytes have abundant mitochondria,which plays an important role in maintenance of cell physiological function. Recent studies find that cardiac energy metabolic shifts occur as a normal response to diverse physiologic and dietary conditions and as a component of the pathophysiologic processes which accompany cardiac hypertrophy, heart failure, and myocardial ischemia.Both clinical and experimental studies show that cardiac function can be improved and apoptosis is inhibited by intervention in energetic metabolism of myocytes.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the status and tendency of the application of antihyperlipidemics drugs in Chongqing area. METHODS: The use of antihyperlipidemics drugs in 28 hospitals of Chongqing from 2004 to 2007 was analyzed statistically in respect of the consumption sum, DDDs and DDC. RESULTS: The mean annual incremental ratio of the consumption sum of antihyperlipidemics drugs reached over 33.80%. Simvastatin has been dominated the first place over the 4 years in terms of consumption sum and DDDs; the consumption sum of atorvastatin has been on the rise but that of Gemfibrozil decreased year on year with mean annual decrement of 60%. CONCLUSION: Statins assumed a dominant position among all the antihyperlipidemics drugs used in Chongqing area and its use has great potential.

Cyber -knife a new stereotaxic radiosurgery instrument, which structure and technical characteristics are introduced. By application of real-time image aiming and synchronous dynamic tracking techniques, abandoning vicious location frame to solve the questions of traditional directional radiosurgery technique only use pate tumour. Cyber-knife is an innovative stereotaxic radiosurgery instrument, extends the indications of stereotaxic radiosurgery from intracranial neoplasms to extracranial tumors and has a widest development prospect in medical treatment.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of telbivudine in HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients by comparing the efficacy of initial telbivudine therapy in treatment-naive patients with sequential telbivudine therapy in patients with poor response to adefovir.Methods A total of 90 HBeAg-positive CHB patients were assigned to receive sequential telbivudine therapy following poor response to adefovir dipivoxil (n=45),or initial telbivudine therapy in antiviral treatment-naive patients (n=45).All patients were treated with telbivudine 600 mg daily for 104 weeks.The efficacy was evaluated in terms of liver function tests,serum HBV markers,HBV DNA and antiviral drug resistance.Results Telbivudine showed good overall efficacy after treatment for 104 weeks in terms of alanine aminotransferase normalization rate (91.1％),HBV DNA negative conversion rate (80.0％),HBeAg loss rate (57.8％),and HBeAg/HBeAb seroconversion rate (30.0％).The HBV DNA negative conversion rate in initial treatment group was significantly higher than that in sequential treatment group (P＜0.05).However,among the patients with early response,the efficacy did not show significant difference between groups (P＞0.05).The patients with early response showed significantly better efficacy than those without early response,in terms of higher HBV DNA negative conversion rate,higher HBeAg loss rate and HBeAg/ HBeAb seroconversion rate (P＜0.000 1 or P＜0.05),but lower virological breakthrough rate (P＜0.05).Conclusions Telbivudine has shown reliable efficacy in CHB patients.Initial telbivudine therapy is better than sequential therapy in CHB patients with poor response to adefovir.However,for patients with early response to telbivudine,no statistical difference is found between initial and sequential therapy in long-term treatment efficacy (104 weeks).The patients receiving sequential telbivudine therapy should be monitored closely for early antiviral response to optimize treatment.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of two different methods in treatment of liver cancer which sizes ranged from 3 to 6cm ,and provide the basis for clinical treatment methods .Methods A retrospective analysis of the curative effect of liver cancer patients whose tumor diameter were rang from 3 to 6 cm was done .All patients collected from the Forth Cadre′s Sanatorium and Health Center ,Military Region in Shandong province Taian zones at the time of December 2008 to December 2011 who carried out surgical resection or radiofrequency ablation .Results 41 cases of recurrence within a year in surgical group ,the recurrence rate was 32 .5% ,87 cases(69 .1% ) of recurrence ,103 cases(81 .7% ) of recurrence within 3 years ;41 cases of recurrence within a year in radio frequency ablation group ,the recurrence rate was 40 .8% ,51 cases(71 .8% ) of recurrence within 2 years ,60 cases(84 .5% ) of recurrence within 3 years ,a statistically significant difference were found between the two group at the same period time (P<0 .05);1 ,2 ,3 year survival rates were 84 .6% ,69 .8% ,56 .3% in surgical group ,radiofrequency 1 ,2 ,3 year survival rates were 85 .3% ,70 .9% ,53 .4 in radio frequency ablation group ,The difference was not statistically significant at the same period time (P>0 .05) .Conclusion For size between 3 to 6 cm liver cancer ,radiofrequency ablation can be used as the preferred method of treatment .

Objective To explore the feasibility of the application of autoregressive integrated moving average(ARIMA) model to forcast the monthly incidence rate of bacillary dysentery in Jianghan District of Wuhan ,and to provide scientific references for prevention and control .Methods SAS 9 .2 software was used to fit the ARIMA model for the monthly incidence rate of bacil‐lary dysentery from 2005 to 2013 .Thereafter ,the fitted model was used to forecast the data from January to June in 2014 ,and was evaluated by comparing the actual incidence .Results The ARIMA(0 ,1 ,1)X(0 ,1 ,1)12 model had a better fitted effect ,it was pre‐dicted that the incidence of bacillary dysentery of Jianghan District of Wuhan City from January to June 2014 would increase slight‐ly ,and the forecast data of bacillary dysentery from January 2005 to December 2013 consisted with the actual situation .Conclusion ARIM A model can be used as short‐term forecasting model to predict the monthly incidence rate of bacillary dysentery in Jianghan District of Wuhan .
