OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects,prognosis and safery of recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide on the treatment of patients with acute decompensated heart failure. METHODS:90 inpatients with acute decompensated heart failure were divided into observation group and control group according to the use of recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide or not,with 45 cases in each group. Control group received rountine anti-heart failure therapy and intravenous dripping of Nitroglycerin injection at 20 μg/min continuously for 72 h. Observation group was additionally given Lyohilized recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide with initial loading amount of 1.5 μg/kg,iv,then intravenous dropping at 0.007 5 μg/(kg·min)continuously for 72 h,on the basis of control group. Hemodynamic parameters,brain natriuretic peptide level,the difference of liquid intake and output,dyspnea,lung rales,systemic edema,the improvement of cardiac function were observed and compared between 2 groups before and after treat-ment as well as re-hospitalization rate and surriral rate 30 d after medication,the occarrence of ADR. RESULTS:After treatment, left ventricular ejection fraction of observation group was significantly higher than that of control group,and central venous pressure and brain natriuretic peptide level were lower than those of control group,with statistically significance (P<0.05). The difference of liquid intake and output after treatment was (1 171.60 ± 444.80)ml in observation group and (822.30 ± 268.40)ml in control group,with statistical significance between 2 groups(P<0.05). After treatment,the scores of dyspnea,lung rales and systemic ede-ma were decreased in 2 groups;the improvement of observation group was significantly better than that of control group,with statis-tical significance(P<0.05). Total effective rates of observation group and control group were 95.56% and 82.22%;re-hospitaliza-tion rates 30 d after medication were 17.78%and 26.67%;survival rates 30 d after medication were 88.89%and 75.56%,with sta-tistical significance between 2 groups (P<0.05). There was no statistical significanse in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide can significantly improve hemodynamic parameters and heart function of patients with acute decompensated heart failure,and effectively relieve dyspnea,lung rales and systemic edema. It is better than routine treatment in prognosis with good safety.

Objective To assess the levels of glucose-6-phosphate isomerase(GPI) mRNA in peripheral blood monocytes and serum GPI levels in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and analyze the association of serum GPI with MCV antibody, CCP antibody and RF of RA. Methods Fluorogenic quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (FQ-RT-PCR) was used to examine mRNA expression on peripheral blood monocytes in 60 RA patients (28 case in active stage,32 cases in stable stage) ,30 patients with other rheumatic diseases, and 30 healthy controls. ELISA was used to detect the levels of serum GPI, anti-MCV antibodies, anti-CCP antibodies and RF in each group. Results The levels of GPI mRNA in RA group [△Ct=4.21 (3.04-7.23)] were significantly higher than those in patients with other rheumatic diseases [△Ct=8.42 (5.16-9.98),P<0.01] and healthy controls [△Ct=8.66 (4.90-10.01), P<0.01]. There were statistically significant differences of GPI mRNA levels between active RA [△Ct=3.78 (1.28-6.09)] and inactive RA[△Ct =5.88(3.23-8.94),H=11.760,P<0.01)]. The RA group serum GPI levels [3.02 (2.02-8.39) mg/L] were higher than those of other rheumatic diseases [0.20 (0.11-0.32) mg/L] and healthy controls [0.18(0.08-0.30) mg/L]. There were significant differences of serum GPI levels between active RA group [4.84(2.81-10.38) mg/L] and inactive RA group[2.12 (1.26-4.34) mg/L] (H=9.830, P<0.01). The sensitivities of GPI, anti-MCV and anti-CCP were 68% (41/60) ,57% (34/60),58% (35/60), respectively and specificities were 95% (57/60), 92% (55/60) and 93% (56/60), respectively. Conclusions The high expression of GPI mRNA in RA patients shows that it may play a pathological role in the development of RA, and it may be correlated with the activity of RA. It may be a valuable diagnostic parameter for RA, because of its high sensitivity and specificity.

Objective: To study the effects of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on blood levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), high sensitivity C-reaction protein (hs-CRP) and fibrinogen (Fg) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
Methods: Our research included 2 groups: AMI group,n=110 patients with PCI and Control group,n=53 healthy subjects from physical examination. Blood levels of VEGF, hs-CRP and Fg were compared between pre-operation and 30 min, 24 h, 72 h post-operation; the peak values of VEGF, hs-CRP and Fg were compared between the patients with post-operative MACE occurrence at 24 h and the patients without MACE occurrence.
Results:①Compared with Control group, blood levels of VEGF, hs-CRP and Fg in AMI group were increased at pre-operation and 30 min, 24 h, 72 h post-operation, for VEGF (pg/ml) as (84.7±21.4) vs (130.5±40.2) and (143.2±49.7), (107.1±31.8), (97.3±24.4); for hs-CRP (mg/L) as (1.03±0.34) vs (3.11±0.56) and (4.67±0.62), (6.42±0.72), (2.83±0.56); for Fg (mg/L) as (3.86±0.32) vs (4.79±0.52) and (5.02±0.54), (5.54±0.67), (4.11±0.44) respectively, allP<0.05. In AMI group, the post-operative value of VEGF was ifrst increased, it reached the peak at 30 min and then gradually decreasing; while hs-CRP and Fg were increased gradually, they reached the peak values at 24h time point, allP<0.05.②In AMI group, compared with the patients without post-operative MACE (72/110), the patients with MACE (38) had elevated 24h post-operative levels of VEGF as (131.7±36.5 vs 155.5±42.8), hs-CRP as (5.68±0.62 vs 6.89±0.53) and Fg as (5.23±0.60 vs 5.66±0.55) respectively, all P<0.01.
Conclusion: Post-operative monitoring of blood levels of VEGF, hs-CRP and Fg had the important clinical value in AMI patients after PCI.

Objective To investigate the impacting factors on the professional identity of railway young workers and the relationship of the professional identity and subjective well-being.Methods The sample consisting of 5 762 young workers was selected from railway enterprises by stratified and random sampling according to the proportion.Occupational professional identity Scale and Index of Well-being,Index of General Affect Scale were used.The affect of the variable,such as sex,age,working years,educational background and income on professional identity were studied.Moreover,the relationship between professional identity and subjective well-being was reported.Results (1) Professional identity ascended witb the increase of ages,and there was significance between three groups(F=6.667,P＜0.05).(2)Professional identity ascended with the increase of length of service (F=5.147,P＜0.01),but it dropped at the point of 9-12 years.(3) The professional identity of workers with bachelor degree was higher than that with junior college education background.and there was significance between three groups (F=3.538,P＜0.05).(4)The workers who had more than 3 500 RMB monthly salary was regarded on the top in professional identity,while those whose monthly salary were under 2 500 RMB was in the lowest level (F=42.275,P＜0.01).(5)The result of linear regression indicated that the degree of professional identity can forecast the degree of subjective well-being(R =0.534,P＜0.01).Conclusion The professional identity of railway young works was affected by their ages,the length of service,the educational degree and salary,The professional identity can forecast subjective well-being.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of conventional and dynamic gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted (T1W) MRI in benign and malignant endometrial polypoid lesions. The pathologic basis of MRI features was also evaluated. Methods The conventional and dynamic contrast enhanced MRI features in 48 cases with clinicopathologically-proved endometrial polypoid lesions were retrospectively analyzed, including 26 cases with malignant tumors (23 eases with endometrial carcinoma and 3 cases with endometrial sarcoma) and 22 cases with benign polypoid lesions (12 cases with endothehal polyps and 10 cases with submucons leiomyomas). The occurrence probability of central fibrous core, intratumoral cysts and intact junctional zone were evaluated by Fisher's exact test. Results Benign and malignant endometrial polypoid lesions had specific characteristics on MRL Endometrial carcinomas usually appeared as homogeneous intermediate or slightly high signal-intensity masses on T2-weighted images, and relatively homogeneous hypedense masses on contrast-enhanced images with myometrial invasion (P < 0.05). An irregular central fthrous core and small non-enhanced intratumoral cysts were seen more frequently in endometrial polyps (P < 0.05) than others. All 3 cases with uterine sarcomas showed obviously inhomageneous intensity on T2WI and demonstrated areas of early and persistent marked enhancement.Submucous leiomyomas demonstrated isodense or slightly low-density masses with defined outline on T2 WI and the endomerium was displaced. The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of malignant polypoid masses were 92.3% (24/26), 83.3% (20/24) and 95.8% (46/48) respectively. Conclusion Conventional and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI are valuable in characterizing the benign and malignant endometrial polypoid lesions.

Objective To compare the ability of CT and MRI in evaluating the residual of tumor of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its stability after treated by transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) with Lipiodol.Methods 28 patients with HCC underwent CT, MRI and angiography within 2～6 months after 1～4 procedure(s) of TACE. These three examinations were completed sequentially within one month. CT and MRI findings were thus compared on the basis of the results of arteriography and clinical follow-up at least 6 months.Results 46 lesions were found in 28 patients. 31 lesions with and the other 15 lesions without residual viable tumor were confirmed by arteriography and clinical follow-up. 20 lesions with and 26 lesions without residual viable tumor were found on CT images, and CT displayed 64.5% sensitivity, 100% specificity, and 76.1% accuracy respectively. 29 lesions with and 17 lesions without residual viable tumor were found on MRI images, and its sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 93.5%, 100%, and 95.7% respectively.
