Objective To observe the effect of carvedilol and metoprolol in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and its effect on TNF-α and IL-6.Methods 94 cases of CHF were randomly classified into carvedilol group with 47 cases and metoprolol group with 47 cases, which were treated with metoprolol and metoprolol,respeetively.The clinical effects and the lovels of TNF-α and IL-6 were compared.Results The clinical effeetive rate in carvedilol group was significantly higher than that in metoprolol group( P < 0.05 ).After treatment, the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly decreased in both groups (P < 0.05 ).Moreover, the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in carvedilol group were significantly lower than those in metoprolol group after treatment (P < 0.05).Conclusion Carvedilol in improving clinical effective rate and decreasing the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 was better than metoprolol,whieh played an important role in treatment of CHF.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association between serum level of osteopotin(OPN) and disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, and explore the importance of OPN in the pathogenesis of interstitial lung disease (ILD) in RA. MethodsSixty-five RA patients and 20 healthy controls were pros-pectively enrolled. RA patients were divided into active group(n=43) and inactive group(n=22), and ILD groups (n=24) and non-ILD group (n=41). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the serum levels of OPN in patients with RA and healthy controls, and the relationship between OPN and other clinical and laboratory findings were analyzed.Results① Serum OPN tended to be significantly higher in RA patients (median, 18.0 ng/ml) than in the healthy controls (median, 14.3 ng/ml), P<0.01; ②The serum level of OPN in RA patients showed a significant positive correlation with the course of disease, numbers of tender joints , ESR and CRP, but no positive relationship was found in number of swollen joints; ③ The serum level of OPN was significantly higher in RA-ILD patients(median, 20.0 ng/ml) than that in non-lLD (median, 17.0 ng/ml, P<0.05). And there was remarkable negative correlation between the concentration of serum OPN and the value of PaO2, but no association was found with pulmonary function %VC and %DLCO. ④ Compared with the non-ILD group, the ILD group had more active disease in terms of tender joint counts and swollen joint counts, ESR, CRP(P<0.01) and the serum titer of RF-IgM,(P<0.05). ConclusionOPN plays a role in the pathogenesis of RA and is related to the disease activity. It may serve as an active disease inflammatory marker of RA . OPN may be involved in the pathogenesis of RA related ILD and is associated with the severity of pulmonary damage.

The endophytic fungi with plant growth promoting effects were screened by co-culture of each endophytic fungus and seedlings of Dendrobium officinale. Anatomical features of the inoculated roots were studied by paraffin sectioning. Morphological characteristics and rDNA ITS1-5. 8S-ITS2 sequences were applied for the taxonomy of endophytic fungi. The results showed that 8 strains inoculated to D. officinale seedlings greatly enhanced plant height, stem diameter, new roots number and biomass. According to the anatomical features of the inoculated roots, each fungus could infect the velamina of seedlings. The hyphae or pelotons were existed in the exodermis passage cells and cortex cells. The effective fungi could not infect the endodermis and vascular bundle sheath, but which was exception for other fungi with harmful to seedlings. Combined with classic morphologic classification, 2 effective strains were identified which were subjected to Pestalotiopsis and Eurotium. Six species of fungi without conidiophore belonged to Pyrenochaeta, Coprinellus, Pholiota, Alternaria, Helotiales, which were identified by sequencing the PCR-amplified rDNA ITS1-5. 8S-ITS2 regions. The co-culture technology of effective endophytic fungi and plant can apply to cultivate the seedlings of D. officinale. It is feasible to shorten growth cycle of D. officinale and increase the resource of Chinese herbs.

This paper introduces the feature of binocular indirect ophthalmoscope and its application in ophthalmologic examination and operation. Compared with direct ophthalmoscope, binocular indirect ophthalmoscope has many special advantages owing to its unique illumination system and principle of formation of image. Most of ocular fundus diseases can be diagnosed correctly by binocular indirect ophthalmoscope. The view is that the inspection technique of binocular indirect ophthalmoscope is the most convenient and predominant in fundus examination, ophthalmology operation and treatment until now, and is of value in use.

Objective To investigate the proportion and the clinical significance of status of different hepatitis B virus(HBV) serological markers in HBV related chronic liver disease(CLD),including chronic hepatitis B(CHB),liver cirrhosis(LC) and hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The related clinical data of 2 482 inpatients during the period of January 2006 to December 2007 were collected and analyzed statistically.Results In 1 226 patients with CHB,64.4% of them were hepatitis B e antigen(HBeAg)-positive,and 35.6% of them were HBeAg-negative.In 362 patients with LC,27.1% of them HBeAg-positive,66.0% HBeAg-negative,6.9% HBsAg-negative,and in 894 patients with HCC,16.4% were HBeAg-positive,75.1% HBeAg-negative and 8.5% HBsAg-negative.In every disease entity of CLD,the sex ratio for serological markers was similar,though the ratio of male-to-female in the patients with HCC(8.8∶1) was significantly higher than that of LC(4.5∶1) and CHB(4.4∶1),respectively.The age of HBeAg-negative patients with CHB was significantly older than that of HBeAg-positive patients with CHB.The average age of patients with different status of serological markers in LC or HCC was similar.No statistical difference was found in ALT levels between the HBeAg-positive and HBeAg-negative patients with CHB.However,the proportion of low ALT levels became higher in the patients with LC or with HCC when HBeAg positive turned to be HBeAg-negative then to HBsAg-negative.Conclusions The proportion and the clinical significance of changes in serological markers are different in three different entities of CLD.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the level of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)? and the clinical features of multiple sclerosis(MS). Methods The TNF? level of 58 MS patients (MS group) was determined by means of sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The correlative analysis between level of TNF? and the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS), the clinical data (including the duration of disease,the number of relapses and the age of onset) were take in MS patients. Results (1)TNF? level was significantly increased in MS acute stage compared with those in MS remission stage and healthy controls (P

Objective To investigate the effects of clonidine on the visceral pain induced by acute myocardial ischemia. Methods Male SD rats weighing 250-280 g were operated upon under general anesthesia with intraperitoneal methane 1.2 g/kg and local infiltration of the skin incision. After tracheal intubation, the animals were mechanically ventilated (VT = 5-7 ml/kg, RR = 75 bpm). The anterior descending branch of left coronary artery was occluded with a snare through the left 4 th intercostal space. The animals were then fastened to a brain stereotaxic instrument and a burr hole was made in the skull. A glass micro-electrode was inserted into the brain. The discharges of noxious stimulation responding neuron (NSRN) in parafascicular nucleus were recorded. Twenty-four rats detected NSRN showed response to coronary artery occlusion (CAO) were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =6 each): group Ⅰ CAO + normal saline 0.1 ml; group Ⅱ CAO + elonidine 30 μg; group Ⅲ CAO + clanidine 100 μg; group Ⅳ CAO + clonidine 100 μg + yohimbine (an α2-adrenergic receptor antagonist) 200 μg. In group Ⅳ , clonidine was administered intravenously 15 min after CAO, and then yohimbine was injected intravenously 15 min later. The discharges of NSRN were recorded every 5 min for 60 min from the beginning of CAO. Results Clonidine 100 μg significantly inhibited the increased frequency of nociceptive discharge rate of NSRN after CAO. However, this effect could be blocked by the α2-adrenergic receptor antagonist yohimbine.Conclusion Clonidine 100 μg can reduce the visceral pain induced by acute myocardial ischemia through activiting α2-adrenergic receptor.

Objective To determine the prevalence of pain beyond the osteoporotic vertebral com-pression fracture (OVCF) in patients undergoing percutaneous vertebral augmentation and the response of pain to the treatment. Methods A retrospective study of 104 patients undergoing percutaneous vertebral augmentation (pereutaneous vertebroplasty and pereutaneous kyphoplasty) was performed to examine the lo-cations and severities of pain beyond the OVCF before and after operation. The Visual Analog Sscale (VAS,10-point scale) and Activities of Daily Living (ADL, 5-point scale) were used. Results Of the 104 patients, 48 (46.2%) suffered pain beyond the OVCF. The pain was firstly located in the sacrococeygeal region and buttocks (26.0%), secondly in the abdomen and sub-xiphoid process (10.6%) and thirdly in the flank, ribs and chest (9.6%) . For all the cases, the mean VAS score decreased from 8.9±0. 8 before vertebral augmentation to 2.9±1.4 after augmentation (t=37.410, P=0.000), and the mean ADL score decreased from 4.1±0.6 before operation to 2.0±0.7 after operation (t=25.331, P =0.000) . For the patients suffering pain beyond the OVCF, the mean VAS score decreased from 8.8±0.9 before vertebral augmentation to 2.8±1.5 after augmentation (t=23.722, P=0.000), and the mean ADL score decreased from 4.2±0.7 before operation to 2.0±0. 7 after operation (t=15.373, P=0.000). The decreases in VAS and ADL scores were not affected by the pain. Conclusion The pereutaneous vertebral augmentation can effectively relieve the pain beyond the OVCF.
