Objective To investigate the relationship between vascular lesion and serological changes in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) complicated with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods According to the standard, a total of 168 patients of OSAHS complicated with CHD were selected in this study. Those patients were divided into 3 groups according to the apnea hypopnea index (AHI) level:light group (AHI, 5-14/h), moderate group (AHI, 15-30/h) and severe group (AHI,>30/h). Syntax scores were performed on three groups according to coronary angiography results. The data of hemoglobin (Hb), platelet count (PLT), fibrinogen (FIB), D-Dimer (DD), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL), triacylglycerol (TG), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), uric acid (UA), creatinine (Cr) and echocardiographic examination index were collected and analyzed in three groups. Results The Syntax score was significantly higher in severe group than that in mild and moderate groups (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the Syntax score between mild and moderate groups. The levels of Hb, FIB, LDL, pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP), and right ventricle transverse diameter (RVD) were significantly lower in the mild and moderate groups than those in the severe group (P<0.01). The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was significantly lower in the severe group than that in the mild and moderate groups (P < 0.01). There were no significant differences in levels of Hb, FIB, LDL, PAP, RVD and LVEF between mild group and moderate group (P > 0.05). Conclusion The serology and cardiac structure can change gradually in severe OSAHS patients, and the coronary artery lesion will be more complex. Therefore, the clinical treatment should pay attention to screening for OSAHS in patients with coronary heart disease.

Aim To investigate the inhibitory effect of schizandrin B( SchB) on ultraviolet radiation b ( UVB) radiation-induced apoptosis of HaCaT cells. Methods Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium ( MTT ) assay was used to examine the effect of SchB on cell viability recovery. Cell apoptosis and necrosis were measured by Ho-chest33342 staining. The p53, p21 and Caspase-3 mRNA expressions were examined by RT-PCR. Results In this study, we found that Sch B attenuated UVB-in-duced toxicity in HaCaT cells. Through Hoechst 33342 stain, we visualized that SchB could inhibit UVB-in-duced HaCaT cell death. The result demonstrated that p53 , p21 and Caspase-3 mRNA levels decreased com-pared with the control group. Conclusions Sch B at-tenuates the UVB-induced toxicity of HaCaT by inhibi-ting apoptotic gene expression. It plays a role in anti-photoaging.

Objective To investigate the changes of silver-stainng protein of nuclear organizer regions(AgNORs)expression of T lymphocytes and helper T (Th) cell subsets in peripheral mononuclear cells (PBMC) from cancer patients and to analyze the relationship between them.Methods AgNORs expression in T cells activated by a multiple clonal activator was examined using a special image system. After activation of PBMC with ionomycin plus PMA for 5 h, both interferon-? (IFN ?) and interleukin-4 (IL-4)producing cell frequencies were detected by enzyme-linked immunospot assay (ELISPOT). The stimulated with ionomycin plus PMA for 24 h, the IFN ?-and IL-4-production were assayed by ELISA.Resuts AgNORs expression of activated T cells in PBMC from cancer patients (n=86) and healthy persons (n=44) was (4.90?1.20) I.S% and (7.82?1.28) I.S% respectively. Th2 frequency was significantly higher and the ratio of Th1 to Th2 frequency was more lower in cancer patient group. Moreover, the IFN ? and IL-4 production in cancer patient group were changed in the way similar to Th subset frequencies. In lung cancer patients the AgNORs expression, Th1 frequency, Th1/Th2 ratio and IFN ? production were significantly decreased in metastasis or in recurrence status,AgNORs expression in cancer patients correlated with their Th1 frequencies, Th1/Th2 ratio, IFN ? production levels and Karnofsky′s estimators.Conclusions In analyzed cancer patient cases, the expression of AgNORs and the function of Th1 cell were significantly decreased and correlated.

BACKGROUND: The clinical features and classification of various anomalous synkinetic movements related to ocular muscles caused by abnormal innervations have not been fully understood.OBJECTIVE: To report and analyze the clinical features of anomalous synkinetic movements related to ocular muscles caused by abnormal innervations, as well as to classify them according to the same neuromuscular nerves.DESIGN: A retrospective case analysis.SETTING: Department of Ophthalmology, the Affiliated Hospital of the Medical College of Qingdao University.PARTICIPANTS: The study was mainly conducted in the Department of Ophthalmology, the Affiliated Hospital of the Medical College of Qingdao University. A total of 836 cases of abnormal ocular movements were found from January 1997 to January 2002. Among them 67 cases of anomalous synkinetic movements were diagnosed.METHODS: All patients were inquired of case history and their ocular movements were examined. The anomalous synkinetic movements were found and classified into congenital and acquired. All cases were analyzed according to the same neuromuscular nerves, such as between branches of oculomotor nerve, oculomotor and abducens nerve, supranucleus and other anomalous synkinetic movements.lous synkinetic movements were determined by inquiring the history of observed.RESULTS: Sixty-seven anomalous synkinetic movements (8%) of 836 abnormal ocular movements were diagnosed; congenital anomalous synkinetic movements were the most common ones (88.06%) and were often seen in patients with Duane's syndrome. Anomalous synkinetic muscles occurred the most common between lateral and medial rectus, lateral rectus and levator palpebrae muscle (36.89% respectively) in congenital cases, and those occurred between inferior rectus and levator palpebrae muscle more commonly (30%) in acquired cases.CONCLUSION: Anomalous synkinetic movements related to ocular muscles are not infrequently seen. When we find paradoxical movements between ocular muscles, or between ocular muscles and other unrelated muscles, anomalous synkinetic movements should be considered.
