OBJECTIVE:To compare the effects of Qili qiangxin capsules and Compound danshen drop pills on related indexes of acute myocardial infarction(AMI)patients without reflow after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). METHODS:A total of 90 AMI patients without reflow after PCI were randomly divided into Compound danshen drop pills group (45 cases) and Qili qiangxin capsules group(45 case). Both groups were given Aspirin chewable tablets 300 mg and Clopidogrel sulfate tablets 300 mg before PCI. After surgery,both groups were given Aspirin chewable tablets 100 mg,once a day+simvastatin chewable tablets 10 mg,once a day. Based on it,Compound danshen drop pills group was given Compound danshen drop pills,10 pills,3 times a day. Qili qiangxin capsules group was given Qili qiangxin capsules,4 capsules,3 times a day. Both groups were treated for consec-utive 6 months. The blood flow classification of TIMI,LEVF,β1-AR,β2-AR,α1-AR,bleeding and the occurrence of major cardio-vascular events were observed in 2 groups before and after treatment. The occurrence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS:Bafore treatment,there was no statistical significance in the blood flow classification of TIMI,the levels of β1-AR,β2-AR and α1-AR be-tween 2 groups(P>0.05). After treatment,the case number of 0-2 degree blood flow classification of TIMI in 2 groups were signif-icantly lower than before treatment while the case number of 3 degree were significantly higer than before treatment;the levels ofβ1-AR,β2-AR and α1-AR were significantly lower than before treatment,while LEVF was significantly higher than before treatment;LEVF of Qili qiangxin capsules group was significantly higher than that of Compound danshen drop pills group,with statistical signifi-cance (P<0.05). There was statistical significance in the incidence of bleeding and major cardiovascular events between 2 groups (P>0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups during treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Qili qiangxin capsules is similar to Com-pound danshen drop pills in improving no-reflow efficacy and safety of AMI patients after PCI,but it is better than Compound dan-shen drop pill in improving cardiac function.

AIM: To study the effects of Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription (composition; ginseng, radix astragali, plantaginis semen, lignum sappan, chuanxiong, salvia miltiorrhiza, radix aconiti lateralis preparata, bitter orange, cassia twig) of TCM on the congestive heart failure in rats. METHODS:The rats were given doxorubicin hydrochloride by intraperitoneal injection to establish the model of congestive heart failure and were randomly divided into control group, congestive heart failure model group, Xinbao treatment group ( XB treatment) and Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription treatment group (QXYTM treatment). Normal saline, liquid medicine Xinbao and liquid medicine Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription were administered respectively to four groups by gavage. Radioimmunoassay, semi - quantitative RT - PCR and flow cytometry methods were used to determine the expressions of plasma atrial natriuretic peptide ( ANP) , renal medulla aquaporin - 2 ( AQP2 ) and heat shock protein70 (HSP70) in congestive heart failure rats before and after treatment. RESULTS: In congestive heart failure rats treated with Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription, the cardiac output and left ventricle systolic pressure increased significantly, the left ventricular end diastolic pressure decreased, and the maximum ascending and declining rate of left ventricular pressure ameliorated, thus the hemodynamics was effectively improved. Meanwhile, the level of plasma cardionatrin decreased, the abnormal expression of renal medulla AQP2 was markedly restored, and the transcription and expression of HSP70 gene were also increased. CONCLUSION: Huoxue Huayu and Yiqi Wenyang compound prescription promotes the recovery of the pathogenetic conditions of congestive heart failure in rare. The mechanism may be in association with a decrease in plasma ANP level, correction of renal medulla AQP2 abnormal expression and enhancement of HSP70 expression.

Objectives To investigate the relationship between obstructive sleep apnea hypoventilation syndrome (OSAHS), insulin resistance (IR) and metabolic syndrome (MS), as well as to explore the possible mechanism of MS caused by OSAHS. Methods We recruited 186 hospitalized patients with hypertensions, who were divided into four groups based on their nocturnal polygraphs recordings, 35 as controls (group Ⅰ), 61 with mild (group Ⅱ), 52 with moderate (group Ⅲ) and 38 with severe OSAHS (group Ⅳ). They all underwent measurements including body height, body weight, waist circumference (WC), systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP), serum uric acid, creatinine, fasting plasma glucose, fasting plasma insulin, serum total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterul, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and triglyceride. Results One hundred and two patients with OSAHS (67.6 percent) also suffered of MS, 33 (86.8 percent) of them with severe OSAHS. There was no significant difference in age, gender, fasting plasma glucose, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprutein-cholesterul, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol and triglyceride among the four groups (P>0.05). Body mass index (BMI), WC, ratio of serum uric acid to creatinine and DBP were all significantly higher in patients with severe OSAHS than those in patients with mild and moderate OSAHS and controls (P<0.01). SBP was significantly higher in patients with severe OSAHS than that in those with mild and moderate OSAHS (P<0.01). Insulin resistance was significantly severer in patients with severe OSAHS than that in those with mild OSAHS and controls (P<0.01). Results of multivariate linear regression analysis showed that insulin resistance was correlated with BMI and reversely correlated with minimal blood oxygen saturation, and minimal blood oxygen saturation reversely correlated with WC and ratio of uric acid to creatinine. Condusions Hypoxemia and obesity may promote development of insulin resistance. Patients of hypertension complicated with OSAHS tend to develop MS, particularly in those with severe OSAHS.

This article focuses on the research of molecular mechanism of brain tumor treatment using the Jinlong capsule via system biology technology. Methods:Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 gene chip was used to detect the genes of samples, in-cluding the brain tumor tissues of nude mice after Jinlong capsule intervention and those of blank control group mice. Differentially ex-pressed genes were identified based on fold change between the two groups. To identify the upstream regulators of the response signa-tures, the differentially expressed genes were subjected to interactome analysis by one-step overconnectivity test and multi-step hidden node algorithm. A set of genes preferentially connected to differentially expressed genes via direct interactions and pathways (called to-pologically significant genes) was generated. Concurrent pathway enrichment analysis on key pathways, processes, and functional units of both differentially expressed genes and topologically significant genes was performed to identify the most likely signaling pathways connecting regulators and effector genes. Finally, condition-specific networks (called causal network) were built to model molecular events by using a set of manually annotated protein interactions, pathways, and proteins and a toolkit of algorithms and filters on Meta-Core platform. Results:A total of 37 differentially expressed genes have been identified between Jinlong capsule-treated sample and ve-hicle sample with fold change of 2. Connection analysis identified 106 topologically significant genes. The main feature of the causal network is stimulation of neural cell specific genes that regulate normal cell physiology, particularly developmental processes and apop-tosis. Another important effect of the Jinlong capsule is its inhibition of the gene markers of interferon response, suggesting signaling in-hibition, followed by de-activation of immune response. Conclusion:Jinlong capsule exerts an anti-neoplastic effect by inducing stimu-lation of neural cell and by inhibiting interferon signal transduction.

Objective To investigate the effect of different additional filtration thickness of DSA on image quality and radiation dose with cerebral angiography. Methods Prospective collected 90 patients with DSA examination of the whole cerebral artery, patients were divided into A, B and C group according to the time of the examination, each group included 30 cases. Patients underwent conventional DSA, the additional filtration of group A, B and C were (1.0 mmAl+0.1 mmCu), (1.0 mmAl+0.4 mmCu) and (1.0 mmAl+0.9 mmCu), respectively. Dose area product (DAP), air kerma (AK), tube current and tube voltage of anteroposterior and lateral radiography of the whole brain were recorded, and scored the image quality. Eye lens organ dose values were obtained by using simulation phantom and LiF dosemeter under A, B and C groups with three different additional filtrations for cerebral angiography. The image quality scores and the radiation dosewere analyzed by one-way ANOVA tests or Kruskal-Wallis tests. Results The image quality comprehensive score of three groups showed significant difference (F=40.07,P<0. 01), which were (3.8±0.4), (3.6 ± 0.5) and (3.0 ± 0.6), respectively. The DAP and AK value of anteroposterior and lateral radiography of three groups also showed significant difference (P<0.05), B and C group were lower than the A group. Left and right eye lens organ dose were decreased along with the increase of the additional filtration thickness, and the difference between the 3 groups also had significant difference (P<0.01). Conclusion Both the image quality and radiation dose can acquire when conducted the whole brain DSA with 1.0 mmAl+0.4 mmCu additional filtration.
