OBJECTIVETo evaluate the value of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in estimating risk stratification in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and to determine the relationship between BNP and adverse cardiac events after AMI.
METHODSThe 135 subjects were selected into the study, including 25 healthy subjects and 110 patients with a first AMI. The plasma concentrations of BNP were measured at two to four days after infarction in patients and healthy controls. Left ventricular function was evaluated by echocardiography with the parameters of left ventricular ejection function (LVEF) after 3 months. Patients were followed up at 12 months. The main outcome measures were heart failure, left remodeling, mortality and other adverse cardiac events at one year.
RESULTSPlasma BNP concentrations in patients with AMI were much higher than those in the health control people (416.7 +/- 208.0 ng/L versus 61.8 +/- 34.1 ng/L, P < 0.01). The BNP count ranged from 5 to 2500 ng/L in AMI patients. There was no association between the BNP count and mortality rate. The development of new congestive heart failure (CHF) was associated with a higher BNP count (P = 0.02). The development of any of the clinical end points (death/CHF/shock) occurred more frequently in patients with a higher BNP count (13.8% for BNP count of < 100 ng/L, 39.1% for BNP count of 100 - 200 ng/L, 43.3% for BNP count of 200 - 400 ng/L, 46.4% for BNP count of > 400 ng/L; P = 0.019). Plasma BNP concentrations remained independently associated with the development of clinical end points in multivariable model that adjusted for potential confounding variables.
CONCLUSIONThe results of the present study confirm that the elevated BNP count related to the risk stratification and prognosis in patients with AMI. Elevations in BNP count are associated with a higher incidence of new CHF and adverse clinical outcomes after AMI. It could serve as a strong predictor for the subsequent development of poor outcomes in AMI patients.

OBJECTIVETo construct the localization system involving anti-TfR monoclonal antibody (McAb) and AFP promoters and assess its effect on human hepatoma cell lines.
METHODSThe conjugate of anti-TfR McAb and polylysine (PLL) was made by SPDP and purified by molecular screen chromatography. DNA blocking test determined that the ratio of one pEBAF/tk to six Ab-PLL was the most suitable to couple them. The pEBAF/tk recombinant plasmid bearing HSV-TK gene was coupled to Ab-PLL by noncovalent bond. The pEBAF/tk was transferred into human hepatoma cell line HepG2, SMMC7721 and pulmonary cancer cell line A549 by receptor-mediated gene delivery (Ab-PLL-DNA) and liposome procedure. The growth inhibitory rates of HepG2, SMMC7721 and A549 cells were measured by MTT assay.
RESULTSThe inhibitory rates of HepG2/tk in 100 mg/L and 1 mg/L of GCV were 60.5% and 24.3%, respectively. The inhibitory rate of GCV to SMMC7721 was 23.2% in 3 days. The pulmonary cancer cell A549, A549/tk (Ab) and A549 /tk (lipo) could not be inhibited by the addition of GCV.
CONCLUSIONThe localization system employed in this paper has high specificity, effectiveness and safety for gene therapy. It would be a promising strategy for gene therapy.

OBJECTIVETo construct a modified and enhanced thymidine kinase (TK) vector regulated by human telomerase catalytic subunit promoter (hTERT) promoter and cytomegalovirus (CMV) enhancer and its killing effect on nasopharyngeal carcinoma in vitro and in vivo and its safety in vivo.
METHODSThe pGL3-basic, as basic vector template, was linked and constructed into TK vector regulated by hTERT promoter and CMV enhancer with mono-promoter vector as control. Enhanced TK expression was confirmed by fluorescent microscopy and real time fluorescent quantitative PCR. Telomerase activity was measured by stretch PCR. Tumour killing effects were examined by MTT and Boyden areola. The effects of enhanced TK on the invasiveness of tumor cell NPC 5-8F and the growth of xenograft implanted in nude mice were investigated.
RESULTSCompared with non-enhanced vector, TK expressed by the enhanced vector significantly increased in NPC 5-8F and MCF-7 cells, telomerase activity was positive in human in NPC 5-8F cells and breast cancer MCF-7 cells and negative in control human blood vessel endothelium ECV-304 cells. After ganciclovir(GCV) treatment, NPC 5-8F cell survival rate and invasiveness decreased and tumor progress of NPC xenograft implanted in nude mice was inhibited, without obvious toxicity effects on mouse liver and kidney.
CONCLUSIONSThe enhanced TK vector regulated by hTERT promoter and CMV enhancer can obviously and specifically inhibit and kill nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells in culture and nasopharyngeal carcinoma xenograft in nude mice in vivo, without obviously toxic side effects on nude mice. The targeted and enhanced TK gene vector with high performance may be a new tumour targeted gene therapy strategy clinically to aim directly at most malignant tumours including nasopharyngeal carcinoma, with more extensive anti-cancer spectrum.

OBJECTIVETo estimate outcomes of patients with acute subdural hematomas by analysing the hematoma thickness, midline shift and the differences between them.
METHODSNinety-five patients with acute subdural hematoma were retrospectively studied by calculating hematoma thickness, midline shift and their difference with a statistical analysis of Kaplan-Meier, Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney U test.
RESULTSThe hematoma thickness ranged from 5.0 to 40.0 mm and midline shift was from 0 to 35.0 mm. Among these patients, 51% died and 49% survived after surgery. 18 patients (19%) showed good or satisfactory results. Kaplan-Meier analysis proved that the survival for patients with hematoma thickness approximately equal to l7 mm and a midline shift 15 mm or whose midline shift exceeded hematoma thickness by 2.2 mm, the survival rate was 50%. Glasgow outcome scale scores were correlated significantly with these parameters.
CONCLUSIONThe hematoma thickness, midline shift and their difference provided a database from which criteria could be derived, that is crucial for prognosis estimation.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy of modified Gant-Miwa procedure with anal encircling for adults with rectal prolapse.
METHODSClinical and follow-up data of 31 adult patients with rectal prolapse undergoing modified Gant-Miwa procedure with anal encircling procedure between September 2005 and January 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.
RESULTSOperations were successfully performed in these 31 cases. The mean operation time was 75 (range 50-165) minutes. The mean estimated blood loss during operation was 50 (range 20-80) ml. There were no postoperative complications, such as hemorrhage, perianal abscess, anal fistula, intra-abdominal infection, or urogenital dysfunction, while only 7 patients developed urinary retention postoperatively. Rate of postoperative constipation improvement was 61.5% (8/13) and defecation difficulty improvement was 69.6% (16/23). Twenty-eight patients received anal manometry 2 months after operation and the result showed that rectal sensation threshold and rectal maximal tolerance decreased significantly, while anal resting pressure and anal squeeze pressure did not change significantly as compared to preoperative values. Six months after operation, anal function was Kirwan grade I in 22 cases and grade II in 8 cases. During a mean postoperative follow-up of 2.5 years (3 months-6.3 years), 2 of 26 patients developed recurrent prolapse.
CONCLUSIONSModified Gant-Miwa procedure with anal encircling for adults of rectal prolapse is a simple and safe procedure with low recurrence rate, minimal invasion, no serious complication and mortality, especially suitable for the elderly patients, accompanied with underlying diseases or reluctant to undergo transabdominal operation.
