UNLABELLEDObjective: In order to assess the integrative cardiopulmonary function after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD), we used symptom limited maximum cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET).
METHODSAll 59 patients diagnosed stable CAD by coronary angiography and echocardiography from August to December of 2014 in our hospital, were divided two groups. PCI group, 31 patients received PCI and drugs. Control group, 28 patients received drugs therapy only. All patients performed CPET before and after the treatment.
RESULTSAll patients safely completed CPET without any complications. The control group, all functional parameters were unchanged (P > 0.05). PCI group, the anaerobic threshold, peak oxygen uptake and peak oxygen pulse increased significantly (P < 0.05) from baseline,but not for others (P > 0.05). For individual analysis, PCI group had higher rates of increase (≥ 10% of baseline) in both peak oxygen uptake and peak oxygen pulse than those of control group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONCPET is an objective, quantitative, safe and effective method to evaluate the clinical therapeutic efficiency. PCI can improve the integrative cardiopulmonary function in CAD patients.

Objective:
To explore the association of hypertriglyceridemic waist phenotype ( HTGW ) with impaired fasting glucose ( IFG ) and diabetes, so as to provide reference for the early prevention and control of diabetes.
Methods:
The survey was conducted among 35 to 75-year-old residents in 8 project sites in Jiangsu Province from 2015 to 2019. The information about demography and lifestyle was collected by the general information questionnaire and the primary screening questionnaire from the National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases; waist circumference, height, weight, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, total cholesterol and fasting plasma glucose were measured. The multinomial logistic regression model was employed to analyze the association of HTGW with IFG and diabetes.
Results:
A total of 118 383 subjects were included, among whom 21 851 cases of HTGW, 27 245 cases of IFG and 22 899 cases of diabetes were identified, with the prevalence of 18.46%, 23.01% and 19.34%. The multinomial logistic regression analysis showed HTGW was statistically associated with IFG ( OR=1.414, 95%CI: 1.343-1.489 ) and diabetes ( OR=2.216, 95%CI: 2.098-2.341 ).
Conclusion
HTGW is associated with IFG and diabetes, which make it possible to be an indicator for screening and assessment of glucose abnormality in middle-aged and elderly population.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the influence of total flavonoids of epimedium (TFE) on the streptozocin (STZ)-induced kidney injury in diabetic rats and discuss the possible mechanism.
METHODSDiabetes was produced by a single injection of streptozocin (40 mg/kg, iv) in male SD rats. The rats were randomly divided into three groups (n = 10): control group, model group and TFE group (100 mg/kg, ig). Animals were sacrificed 12 weeks later. The level of blood glucose, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (Cr) as well as the renal index were determined. Detect the specific biochemical of renal tissue: superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA). Use masson staining to observe the morphology of the renal tissue. Immunohistochemistry was employed to determine the protein levels of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1).
RESULTSCompared to control group, the enhancement of blood glucose, renal index, BUN and Cr was found in model group, which was significantly attenuated by treatment with TFE. Meanwhile, elevated MDA level in renal tissue as well as decreased SOD activities in renal tissue were significantly remitted by TFE. Furthermore, TFE decreased the expression of TGF-beta1.
CONCLUSIONTFE can evidently relieve renal damage in rats with diabetic nephropathy induced by STZ, which might be related to antioxidation and modulating the expression of TGF-beta1 protein.

Objective Studies on cardia-cancer caused by hereditary factors. Methods Case-control method was adopted,with information including name,sex,date of birth,date of death of all the Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ relatives of the patients,diagnosis and the treatment collected. The hereditary probability of cardia cancer and the separation degree were calculated by Falconer and Li-Mentel-Gart. Results (1) Prevalence rates of cardia-cancer on relative Ⅰ,relative Ⅱ,relative Ⅲ of cardia-cancer patients appeared to be 0.54%,0.04%,and 0.05% respectively. Prevalence rates of upper-digestive-tract-cancer of relative Ⅰ,relative Ⅱ,relative Ⅲ of cardia-cancer patients showed as: 2.50%,0.36% and 0.13% respectively. Data showed that relative Ⅰ> relative Ⅱ> relative Ⅲ and family cluster existed in both males and females. (2) Cardia-cancer hereditary probability of the relative Ⅰ cardia-cancer probands was 11.71%,with males as 14.01% and females as 14.72%. The upper-digestive-tract-cancer hereditary probability of the relative Ⅰ cardia-cancer probands was 13.87%,with males as 11.49% and females as 23.08%,both below 25%,indicating this was a low hereditary cancer. (3) The upper-digestive-tract-cancer separation of the blood compatriots of cardia-cancer patients was 0.0452,with males as 0.0441 and females as 0.0507,both below 0.25,indicating the nature of a multi-gene but not single-gene hereditary way. Conclusion Hereditary factor is recognized as one of the high risk cardia cancer,but not the most risky factor causing the high morbidity of cardia cancer in Shanxi province.
