ystolic LS and RS are equal in the indentification of the infarcted segments.

Objective:To explore diagnostic value of dynamic electrocardiogram (DCG) combined esophageal electro‐physiological examination (EEE) for sick sinus syndrome (SSS) .Methods :A total of 74 cases suspecting SSS ,who presented 24h mean heart rate <55 beats/min in DCG ,were selected .After DCG examination ,all subjects received EEE . Diagnostic value of single and combined examinations wereexplored .Results:Compared withthe SSS positive rate of single DCG and single EEE(87.8% ,86.5% ) ,theSSS positive rate ofDCG combined EEE(97.3% ) was sig‐nificantly rose ,P<0.05 both .Conclusion:Dynamic electrocardiogram combined esophageal electrophysiological ex‐amination can evaluate sinus node function from different angles ,which can significantlyincrease SSS diagnose rat .

Objective To evaluate the actual displacement of a femoral neck fracture following close reduction under the C-arm X-ray perspective.Methods From June, 2006 to June, 2009, we managed 12 patients with femoral neck fracture by open reduction and internal fixation.They were 8 males and 4 females, aged from 23 to 65 (average, 42.3) years old.We tried close reduction of their fractures under the C-arm X-ray perspective before a temporary fixation.Next we performed open reduction, readjusted the fracture ends, and placed internal fixation.The actual displacement of the fracture measured after open reduction was carefully compared with the close reduction under the X-ray perspective.Results A substantial displacement was found after open reduction in 7 patients who had achieved anatomic reduction under the X-ray perspective.In the other 5 patients who presented with a slight displacement after close reduction under X-ray perspective, the actual displacements were larger than the X-ray observations but completely reduced after open reduction.The actual measurements after open reduction were significantly larger (3.21 ± 0.96 mm on average) in the anteroposterior displacement ( t = 11.540, P = 0.000), but insignificantly larger (0.58 ±0.93 mm on average) in the superior-inferior displacement ( t = 2.184, P = 0.346) than those after close reduction.Conclusions In general, anatomic reduction can not be achieved for a femoral neck fracture under the C-arm X-ray perspective.Consequently, open reduction may be better than close reduction in the treatment of femoral neck fracture in that improper reduction can block blood supply to the femoral neck and dissection of the capsula articularis coxae can improve blood supply as well as help decompression.

The experimental right cerebral contusion model was established in rats.To observe the relationship between the expression of Nitric oxide synthase 1(NOS1)and time elapsed after cerebral contusion,the expression of Nitric oxide synthase 1(NOS1)and mRNA was studied by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization at different intervals after cerebral injury.The results indicated that a positive relationship existed between the expression of NOS1 and NOS1 mRNA and the intervals elapsed after brain injury.This method also can be used to distinguish antemortem and postmortem injury rat′s cerebral contusion.So that,the expression of NOS1 and NOS1 mRNA is of great value for timing of brain injury.

Objective To explore the effect of double cypress powder (DCP) combined with TDP irradiation on lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion and summarize nursing experience.Methods One hundred and twenty-five patients with lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion were randomized into the observation group and control group.The control group was treated with massage and electro-acupuncture and the observation group received DCP fumigation combined with TDP irradiation besides treatments the controls received.The two groups were compared in terms of pain level and curative effect after two courses of treatment.Result The score on pains by VAS in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the control group and the curative effect was better than that in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion On the basis of the massage,electro-acupuncture and moxibustion therapy,DCP combined with TDP irradiation is therapeutically effective in the reduction of the pains from lumbar disc protrusion.

Objective To evaluate the effect of a bioartificial liver (BAL) system for treatment of acute liver failure (ALF) in canines and its relationship to serum endotoxin. Methods ALF was induced by end-side portocaval shunt combined with common bile duct ligation and transection. Ten ALF canines were distributed to BAL group (n=5), or to a control group (n=5). Each BAL circulation lasted 5h. Serum endotoxin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and total bilirubin (TB) before establishment of ALF model, pre-circulation and post-circulation were determined. Results Serum endotoxin level was 0.284 EU/ml, 0.526 EU/ml and 0.416 EU/ml before establishment of ALF model, and pre-circulation and post-circulation in BAL group, respectively. The serum endotoxin level in BAL group increased pre-circulation (P

Objective To investigate the mortality and cause of death in inpatients with cerebral infarction. Methods The clinical data of 515 patients with cerebral infarction as the underlying cause of death from January 2005 to December 2009 were analyzed retrospectively. The hospital mortality, direct cause of death,and constituent ratio of the cause of death were calculated. The clinical features,such as classification of the Trial of Org 10 172 in acute stroke treatment( TOAST),age and duration of hospital-ization were analyzed. Results ( 1 )The hospital mortalities in patients with cerebral infarction from 2005 to 2009 were 2. 0%(91/4 659),2. 1%(110/5 264),1. 9%(95/5 035),1. 2%(100/8 656),and 1. 0%(119/11 640),respectively. The overall mortality rate was 1. 5%(515/35 254),basically had a declining trend year by year(χ2 =42. 39;P<0. 01).(2)The mortalities of the inpatients with cerebral infarction in the young( <45 years),middle-aged(45 to 59 years),elderly(60 to 74 years),and aged ( >74 years)groups were 1. 1%( 22/2 009 ),1. 0%( 112/11 158 ),1. 5%( 221/14 311 ),and 2. 1%(160/7 776),respectively. They increased with increasing age(P<0. 01).(3)The TOAST classification in 515 died patients were as follows:57. 3%(n=295)for large-artery atherosclerosis,19. 4%(n=100) for cardioembolism,14. 4%(n=74)for cryptogenic stroke,7. 0%(n=36)for small-artery occlusion and 1. 9%(n=10)for other reasons. The five leading direct cause of death were cerebral hernia 49. 3%(n=254),primary central respiratory and circulatory failure 25.0%(n=129),pneumonia 8. 9%(n =46), cerebral-cardiac syndrome 5. 8%( n =30 ),and multiple organ failure 5. 6%( n =29 ).( 4 ) The mean age of death was 67 ± 12 years old. The patients who died of cerebral hernia and primary central respiratory and circulatory failure were younger than those who died of pneumonia(65 ± 13,68 ± 11,and 75 ± 10,respectively;all P<0. 01). The median length of hospital stay was 3 days. The length of hospital stay in patients who died of hernia,primary central respiratory and circulatory failure,and cerebral-cardiac syndrome were significantly shorter than those who died of pneumonia and multiple organ failure( the median length of hospital stay was 3. 0,3. 0,3. 0,12. 5,and 9. 0 days,respectively;all P <0. 05). Conclusions The mortality of hospitalized patients with cerebral infarction have a declining trend year by year. Brain disease itself is the most important reason of early death for patients with cerebral infarction, indicating that it is the important point of prevention and treatment in clinical work.

Objective To establish the determination method of baicalin in the children's YifeiPingchuan mixture by RP-HPLC.Methods A Kromasil C18 column was used with methanol-(0.4％)phosphoric acid-triethylamine (45 ∶ 55 ∶ 2 drops) as mobile phase with a column temperature of 28 ℃.The flow rate was 1.0 ml/min.The detection wavelength was set at 277 nm.Results The linear range of baicalin was 0.040～1.000 μg (r=0.9999) with a average recovery of 99.82 and RSD of 1.01％.Conclusion The method for quantification of baicalin was sensitive,accurate,and convenient,which can also be used as one of basis of quality standard for Yifei-Pingchuan mixture.
