Objective To summarize our experience in percutaneous transluminal angioplasty(PTA) in the management of thoracoabdominal aortic stenosis of Takayasu's arteritis. Methods From 1987~2001, 12 patients of Takayasu's arteritis with thoracoabdominal aortic stenosis underwent PTA. Aortography and pressure of stenotic segment of arota before and after angioplasty were used to evaluate efficacy. Color Doppler ultrasound examination and Doppler segmental pressure measurement were used in follow-up. Results Success was achieved in all cases without mortality and serious complications except for 1 case of acute thrombosis of iliofemoral artery. The residual stenosis were less than 50% in all cases and the pressure gradient was 5 0mmHg~10 5 mmHg with average pressure being 7 2 mmHg after angioplasty ,although they were 25mmHg~46 mmHg averaging of 37 7 mmHg before angioplasty. All cases were followed up for 9(12~72) months and the result was good without lumen restenosis and obstruction. Conclusions PTA is the first choice for Takayasu's arteritis of thoracoabdominal aortic stenosis of local size and proved to be safe, effectiveand economical. It is also effective for long size cases. It is not necessary to dilate aorta stenosis to normal size, and reducing pressure gradient effectively is enough.

Gold nanostructures with unique optical and photo-thermal properties based on their size and shape have wide applica-tion potential in tumor diagnosis, imaging, photo-thermal therapy, and drug delivery because of surface plasmon resonance. The optical properties of gold nanomaterials allow its use for dark field imaging, optical coherence tomography, and two-photon imaging. Gold nanomaterials can also be used as carriers for a variety of fluorescent molecules and drugs, achieving multifunctional imaging, chemo-therapy, photodynamic therapy, and so on. Photon-electron and electron-electron interactions of gold nanomaterials, which are excited by near-infrared laser, will generate heat that can be used for tumor photothermal therapy. This phenomenon promotes drug release, and photoacoustic imaging. The combined application of hyperthermia and chemotherapy based on gold nanoparticles is effective in opti-mizing the efficacy of cancer treatments. Therefore, gold nanoparticles can integrate multiple functions into one single system and real-ize the integration of tumor diagnosis and therapy, which provide new insights for the on-demand therapy and personalized medicine de-velopment. This study reviews the recent progress of several gold nanoparticles in the integrated applications for tumor theranostics, in-cluding gold nanoshells, gold nanorods, hollow gold nanospheres, gold nanocages, and gold nanostars. The major strategies of gold nanomaterials in biomedical applications are also discussed.

BACKGROUND: Chronic musculoskeletal pain can cause disability and decreased quality of life of patients. Probing into the therapeutic methods of musculoskeletal disease and choosing proper treatment drugs are important for patients.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and tolerance of controlled-release tramadol in patients with moderate to severe chronic pain of musculoskeletal origin.DESIGN: A self-control study was conducted.SETTING: Arthrtosis Institute, People' s Hospital Affiliated to Peking University.PARTICIPANTS: Patients who were in the Orthopaedic Outpatient Service,People' s Hospital of Peking University were involved. This observational study was conducted in 40 adults who experienced moderate to moderately severe chronic musculoskeletal pain that was not controlled by routine nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAID) therapy.INTERVENTIONS: Any NSAIDs and other analgesics were prohibited. Patients initially took 50 mg of controlled-release tramadol (Tramcontin) every 12hours, supplemented by every 50 mg if insufficient pain relieved. Recommended daily maximum dose was 400 mg per day. The observation lasted for 4 weeks. The patients were asked for document therapy-relevant data every day and were interviewed every week to doctor assessment.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Pain intensity before and after treatment, pain remission degree, all side effects and their severity.RESULTS: All cases were finished the study and no one withdrew from follow-up. No eligible patients exited from the study because of therapeutic failure or intolerance. In comparison with the initial visual analogue scale (VAS) mean value 6. 80 ± 1.84, the average VAS value at the end of observation was 1.00 ± 1.46, which had significant difference( P < 0. 001) . An average pain reduction of (85. 50±5.35)%was obtained, among which 78% were absolutely and obviously lessened. Side effects were reported in 9cases (22%).Drowsiness and dizziness(6 cases) was the most common, followed by nausea (3 cases), vomiting (1 case), somnolence (2 cases), constipation and urinary retention (1 case) and blurred vision (1 case).CONCLUSION: Tramcontin, as slow-release tramadol, proved to be an effective, safe, and easy-to-use central acting analgesic has an important role in the management of chronic musculoskeletal pain. Light side effect and good tolerance has provided a new choice for treatment of chronic pain in the orthopaedic department.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of the non-invasive indicator deceleration capacity of heart rate (DC) in the sudden cardiac death (SCD) after acute myocardial infarction. Methods A total of 417 myocardial infarc?tion patients with ST-segment elevation in sinus rhythm were enrolled in this study. DC was assessed from data of 24-hour ECG Holter. Regular follow-ups were carried out within 12 months. The SCD events were recorded and compared with pa?tients without SCD. Results During 12 months of follow-up, 20 patients were died due to SCD (4.8%). Compared with sur?vival group, patients showed significantly lower left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF, 0.393 ± 0.065 vs 0.528 ± 0.042, P<0.05) and DC [(2.85±1.66) ms vs (5.49±1.71) ms,P<0.05]in SCD group. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis showed that lower LVEF(<0.35)[RR: 2.167(1.384-4.661), P=0.013]and DC (DC<4.5 ms)[RR: 3.706(2.709-5.374),P=0.020]were risk factors for the occurrence of SCD. The prediction sensitivity by the decreased LVEF and DC was 52.1%and 76.4%respectively, and the specificity was 84.5%and 86.1%respectively. Conclusion The decreased value of DC after acute myocardial infarction can predict the SCD events.
