Objective:To analyze the relationship of lipoprotein associated phospholipase A 2 (Lp-PLA2) and severity of coronary atherosclerosis, and evaluate the effects of rosuvastatin at different doses on the concentration of plasma Lp -PLA2.Methods: Totally 152 cases of patients with suspected coronary heart disease were treated with coronary angiography .According to the results of angiogra-phy, the patients were divided into the coronary heart disease group ( n=117 ) and the normal control group ( without coronary heart disease,n=35).Gensini integral scale was performed and referring to the number of diseased coronary arteries , the degree of coronary atherosclerosis was evaluated .The concentration of serum Lp-PLA2 was detected and the relationship of Lp-PLA2 and the severity of coronary plaque was evaluated .Meanwhile , the patients with coronary heart disease were divided into 2 groups and orally treated with rosuvastatin respectively at the routine dose (10 mg· d-1 ) and the loading dose (20 mg· d-1 ).The changes of the plasma concentra-tion of Lp-PLA2 before the treatment, in the 2nd, 4th,8th and 12th week after the medication were measured and the effect of atorvastatin at different doses on the plasma concentration of Lp-PLA2 was summarized .Results: The plasma Lp-PLA level in the control group was (22.22 ±1.75) μmol· ml-1, while that in the coronary heart disease group was (29.03 ±3.99) μmol· ml-1(P<0.05).The differences in Lp-PLA2 levels between the groups with different Gensini scores of coronary heart disease were statistically significant ( P<0.05).The higher scores were, the higher Lp-PLA2 levels were.The results of multivariate analysis showed that the severity of cor-onary atherosclerosis was significant and positive correlated with Lp-PLA2 level (OR=1.613,P<0.05).In the 2nd, 4th, 8th and 12th week after the medication , Lp-PLA2 levels in the loading dose group were significantly lower than those in the routine dose group ( P<0.05).In the 2nd, 4th, 8th and 12th week after the medication, the degree scores of coronary artery stenosis in the loading dose group were reduced.The decreasing range was significantly greater than that in the routine dose group (P<0.05).The incidence of adverse cardiovascular events in the routine dose group (27.12%) was significantly higher than that in the loading dose group (6.90%) ( P<0.05).The incidence of adverse drug reactions in the routine dose group was 11.86%, while that in the loading dose group was 18.97%(P>0.05).Conclusion:Lp-PLA2 is correlated with the severity of coronary plaque .High dose of rosuvastatin can reduce plasma Lp-PLA2 concentration in the patients .

Tandem occlusion of the anterior circulation is a specific acute large vessel occlusion, which is defined in most of the literature as a combination of intracranial large vessel occlusion and high degree of stenosis or occlusion of the ipsilateral extracranial internal carotid artery.Tandem occlusion is presented in approximately 15% patients with acute ischemic stroke in the anterior circulation who receive endovascular treatment. In patients with tandem occlusion, endovascular treatment is more effective than drug therapy; however, controversy still exists regarding the optimal management strategy of endovascular treatment. This article reviews the recent advance in endovascular treatment of tandem occlusion in the anterior circulation in recent years, to improve the overall care standard for acute ischemic stroke with tandem occlusion of the anterior circulation.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of high frequency three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound in breast masses.Methods Seventy-seven cases of breast lesions were selected by 2D ultrasonic scan,and all the cases had been examined by 3D ultrasound and accepted surgical treatment in Shenzhen People's Hospital.With pathological results as the gold standard for diagnosis,the convergence sign in diagnosis of breast masses was used as malignant standard for 3D ultrasound coronal plane.The sensitivity and specificity were analyzed of 3D ultrasound in the diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors.Results A total of 77 cases of breast lesions included 46 malignant and 31 benign.3D ultrasound convergence sign was used to judge the benign and malignant breast tumors with statistical significance (x2 =26.790,P ＜ 0.01).The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 69.7％,and 90.3％,respectively.Conclusions High frequency 3D ultrasonography has certain value in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast tumors,and has important significance for the formulation of treatment plan.

Objective To summarize the prenatal ultrasonographic characteristics of anomalous origin of one pulmonary artery from the aorta( AOPA ) ,and describe the diagnostic and clinical outcomes of fetal AOPA . Methods Echocardiographic characteristics of 3 fetuses with AOPA were reviewed . The ultrasonographic features were comparatively analyzed with postpartum autopsy findings . The relevant literature were reviewed and the experience of prenatal diagnosis of AOPA were summarized . Results In 3 cases with AOPA ,2 cases were the proximal type and anomalous origin of right pulmonary artery from the aorta ,of them ,one was accompanied with coarctation of the aorta , the other was accompanied with aortopulmonary window . One case was the distal type and anomalous origin of left pulmonary artery from the left innominate aorta ,it was only associated with mirror right aortic arch and right ductus arteriosus . Ultrasound characteristics were no bifurcation in distal pulmonary artery ,main trunk of pulmonary artery extends directly to one branch ,the other branch originated from the ascending aorta or left innominate artery . Three cases were confirmed by postpartum autopsy . Conclusions There are some characteristic signs on ultrasonic features of AOPA . Prenatal ultrasound has important value for diagnosis of AOPA .

Objective To build a 3 in 1 mental health training platform and explore its application in mental health training for nurses working in geriatric wards. MethodsTotally 120 clinical nurses were selected by cluster sampling from the Department of Geriatrics, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology in May 2017. A mental health and humanistic care training platform which integrated "mental-humanistic-social" aspects was built for the nurses in the 3 in 1 form of "microcourse-learning platform-online interaction and discussion", in order to enhance their mental knowledge, improve their mental health management ability, expand scope of knowledge about humanistic care and intensify their practical ability training. A self-made questionnaire for nurses' evaluation of 3 in 1 mental health training platform and Caring Ability Inventory (CAI) were used to assess the effects of the platform. ResultsNursing workers' recognition of the platform scored over 3.5 in all items. This platform enabled the organic unity of informatized training and satisfied most of the nurses. Nursing workers' humanistic care ability was higher after the platform was applied than that before it was applied, and there was statistically significant difference (P＜0.05). ConclusionsThe 3 in 1 mental health platform can effectively enhance nurses' humanistic care ability, which is worth promoting in clinical practice.
