Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of levosimendan on patients with acute left heart failure in acute myocardial infarction.Methods Thirty patients with acute left heart failure in acute myocardial infarction were selected and treated with an initial loading dose of levosimendan of 0.05 μg/(kg · min),followed increasing dose to 0.20 μg/(kg · min) for 24 h after no adverse reactions were observed.Clinical assessment was performed to evaluate efficacy and safety of levosimendan.Results The scores of dyspnea before medication was (1.95 0.71),(1.49 ±0.56) scores at 24 hours after medication and (1.15 ±0.51) scores at 1 week after medication group,and the differences were significant(F =3.346,P=0.043).The scores of clinical manifestation was also different among before medication group ((1.87 ±-1.21) scores),24 hours after medication group((1.36 ± 0.61) scores) and 1 week after medication group ((1.09 ± 0.58) scores,F =5.203,P =0.024).After 1 week medication left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),stroke volume (SV) and plasma NT-proBNP had significant difference with before medication group (LVEF:before medication group:(30.41 ± 5.62) ％,1 week group:(43.16 ± 8.51) ％,t =2.238,P =0.037 ;SV:before medication group:(59.52 ± 25.23) ml,1 week group:(72.31 ± 14.91) ml,t =2.067,P =0.047 ;BNP:before medication group:(2 534.56 ± 1 570.23) rng/L,1 week group:(934.32 ± 421.53) ng/L,t=2.347,P =0.020).No severe adverse effects were seen during the course of medication,while the common adverse effects including palpitations,dizziness,hypotension and ventricular premature beats were remission after treatment.Conclusion Levosimendan treatment on acute myocardial infarction,heart failure is proved to be an efficacy,safety,and well tolerated.

Objective Wnt signal is very important to control the gastrointestinal mucosal proliferation, but its role in the gastric mucosal proliferation after acidified ethanol injury is not clear yet,neither is the relationship with cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2). Methods X-gal staining was used to measure the expression of Wnt signaling; Western blot and RT-PCR were used to measure the expression of TCF4 and P-Catenin in the gastric mucosa before and after acidified ethanol injury. We also used TOP/flash plasmid to further indentify the relationship between COX-2 and Wnt signal pathway. Results After acidified ethanol injury, the expression of LacZ signal, β-Catenin and TCF4 increased only in the wild type mouse. The expression of β-Catenin and TCF4 protein increased about (3.52 ±0.52) times and (3.02 ±0.62) times separately, and the expression of β-Catenin and TCF4 mRNA increased about (19. 85 ±3.63) times and (17.82 ±4.82) times separately. Without ethanol injury, the expression of TOP/flash plasmid was inhibited by COX-2 inhibitor (NS398) about 80% and promoted by prostaglandin E2(PGE2) about 50%.After 1% ethanol injury, the expression of plasmid was inhibited by NS398 about 25% ; on the contrary,PGE2 promoted the expression about 10%. Conclusion Wnt signal in gastric mucosa is activated after acidified ethanol injury. COX-2 may work through modulating Wnt signal to control the proliferation of gastric mucosa.

The time between injury and operation was 1 to 8 days with an average of 4.5 days. According to AO classification, 7 fractures were type A1, 3 fractures were type A2, 6 fractures were type A3, 2 fractures were type B1, 4 fractures were type B2, 2 fractures were type B3, 4 fractures were type C, 3 fractures were type C2. No patients had any signs of radial nerve injury. The results were evaluated with DASH (disability of arm-shoulder-hand) Questionnaire by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) which 0 indicated normal upper extremity function, and 1 to 100 indicated varying degrees of damage to the function of the upper extremties.

RESULTSThere was no neurologic complication or postoperative wound infection in this series. The followed-up period ranged form 8 to 15 months (means 11 months) postoperatively. The clinical outcomes were evaluated with DASH Questionnaire, the score before operation was 76.2±11.8, the final follow-up score was 8.2±7.4, the final follow-up score was significant higher than before operation (P<0.01). The function of the upper extremities recovered satisfactorily.

This study examined the possible mechanism of sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) in the treatment of allergic asthma. Forty asthma patients allergic to dust mite were enrolled. They received SLIT with dermatophagoides farinae (Der. f) drops for one year. Thirty healthy subjects served as controls. The levels of IL-4 and IFN-γ of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were determined in allergic asthma patients before and after the SLIT as well as the healthy subjects. The results showed that the level of IL-4 was substantially increased and that of IFN-γ remarkably decreased in the patients before the SLIT as compared with those in the healthy subjects (P<0.05). After the SLIT, the level of IL-4 was significantly reduced and that of IFN-γ elevated in these allergic asthma patients. It was concluded that sublingual immunotherapy is effective for patients with allergic asthma. And it may work by regulating the balance of Th1/Th2 through changing the expression of IL-4 and IFN-γ in PBMCs.

Objective To observe the effects of stress treatment for different time on autonomic behaviors and spatial learning-memory abilities of rats and to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of Chaihu Shugan San(CSS). Methods Seventy-five 8-week-old Wistar rats were randomly divided into blank control group, model control group, and low-, middle-, and high- dose CSS groups, 15 rats in each group. Chronic multi-stress model was set up. The rat body weight in various groups was measured. The autonomic behaviors of rats were observed by open field test, and the abilities of spatial learning-memory of rats were examined by Morris water maze test. Results (1)On modeling day 20, 30, the model control group had lighter body weight than the blank control group (P < 0.01); the middle-, high- dose CSS groups had higher body weight than the model control group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01) , and the high-dose CSS group had the highest body weight, the difference being insignificant compared with the blank control group (P > 0.05). (2)Open field test results showed as follows:Compared with the blank control group, the total distance and central-area distance were shortened (P < 0.01) and the average speed was decreased(P < 0.01) in the model control group at different modeling time points, the effect being positively correlated with the modeling time; compared with the model control group, the total distance and central-area distance were prolonged(P < 0.05 or P < 0.01) and the average speed was increased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01) in the low-, middle-, and high- dose CSS groups at different modeling time points, and the therapeutic efficacy of high- dose CSS group was approach to the blank control group. (3)Morris water maze test results showed as follows: Compared with blank control group, the average latent period was prolonged and the times of platform crossing were decreased in the model control group (P < 0.01); compared with the model control group, the average potential time was shortened and the times of platform crossing were increased in the middle- and high-dose CSS groups (P<0.01), the efficacy being not significantly different from that of the blank control group (P > 0.05). Conclusion The chronic stress may decrease the excitability, reduce autonomic behaviors, and injure spatial learning and memory abilities of rats, the effect being positively correlated with the modeling time. And CSS has an effect on improving the above indexes, in particular the middle-and high-dose of CSS.
