Objective To assess the clinical efficacy and safety of topiramate in adult and children patients with epilepsy. Methods Open-label experience with topiramate as adjunctive, added-on to monotherapy and monotherapy were analyzed.The efficacy was assessed by comparing the average frequency per month for 3 months after topiramate added to the maintenance period of the baseline therapy. Results Topiramate was proven to be a valuable new antiepileptic drug either in monotherapy (86%) or in added-on therapy (70%) on partial onset epilepsy, West syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, and showed no tolerance.The topiramate dosage in patients with monotherapy [(85.87?29.19)mg/d in adult] is lower than in those using added-on therapy [(161.11?58.18)mg/d] significantly, and the most common adverse events were CNS-related, but few patients had discontinued the therapy.Conclusions The topiramate used for monotherapy or added-on therapy should be regarded as an effective and widespread antiepileptic drug, without tolerance and severe adverse actions.

Objective To discuss the effect and clinical value of serum sialic acid (SA) and lactadherin(MFG-E8) in the coronary atherosclerotic heart disease(CHD).Methods Selected 295 patients who visited to Wuhan University Renmin's Hospital cardiovascular medicine (from January to June, 2014), and then according to the results of coronary angiography divide the subjects into control group (n =78, the result of coronary angiography completely normal)and coronary heart disease group(n =217, the results of coronary angiography showed that one major coronary stenosis was more than 30%).Detected their serum level of lipid, SA, MFG-E8, hs-CRP index.At last, analyze the differences of SA and MFG-E8 between these groups, and the correlation with the severity of coronary stenosis (symbolize with Gensini score), use the binary logistic regression analysis to research the relationship among the serum level of SA, MFG-E8 and the risk of CHD.Results Compared with the control group, the patients with CHD have a higher level of serum SA and a lower level of MFG-E8 (U =4 402.5, 2 736.0 respectively,P <0.001);the AMI group has a higher level of serum SA than the StA and UA groups (U =1 329.0,957.5 respectively, P <0.001);the AMI group has a lower level of serum MFG-E8 than the StA groups (U =1517.0, P < 0.001).The spearman correlation analysis showed that the serum SA has a positively correlation with the level of TG, hsCRP and Gensini score, and has a negatively correlated with the level of MFG-E8 (r =0.214, 0.462, 0.378,-0.322 respectively,P <0.01);the MFG-E8 has a negatively correlated with the level of TG, hsCRP and Gensini score (r =-0.18,-0.425,-0.564 respectively, P <0.01).Binary logistic regression analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between the serum SA and the risk of CHD (OD =4.782, 5.319, 4.179 3.832, 3.648 respectively, P <0.001), and the was a negative correlation between the serum MFG-E8 and the risk of CHD (OD =O.118, 0.112, 0.127, 0.135, 0.134 respectively, P < 0.001).Conclusion With the serum SA rised and the MFG-E8 reduced, the risk of coronary heart disease was higher, combined detection these two indexes may be able to diagnose the CHD and assess the degree of stenosis and the risk of CHD.

Objective To establish the methods of efficiently isolating chondrocytes from epiphyseal cartilage and observe the basic biological characteristics of the cultured ones. Methods The improved isolation method through three-step enzymatic digestion using 1 g/L trypsase in 1 g/L ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, 1 g/L hyaluronidase and 2 g/L type Ⅰ collagenase was established to isolate the primary passage chondrocytes from epiphyseal cartilage of young rabbits and its efficiency evaluated. The cellular biological characteristics of the chondrocytes were observed under the inverted and light microscopes. Results (1) All chondrocytes were isolated from the matrix after it was completely digested by three above-mentioned enzymes. The harvested chondrocytes significantly and positively correlated with the wet weight of cartilage. The number of chondrocytes from 1 g of wet cartilage was 32.3?106 with a viability of 97.6% on average. (2) The chondrocytes of the primary and the first passages showed triangle or multi-angle shapes (oval during growth and fusion) with the positive immunohistochemical stain of collagen type Ⅱ and the strong heterochromia to toluidine blue. The chondrocytes after the third passage became spindle-shaped with the negative stain of collagen type Ⅱ and the weak heterochromia to toluidine blue. Conclusions (1) The chondrocyte-isolating method through three-step enzymatic digestion has advantages of high efficiency in harvesting primary chondrocytes, high cellular viability and simple manipulation. (2) The chondrocytes differentiate and lose their special phenotypes gradually with passage.
