The perinatal risk factors of transient hypothyroxinemia(TH) in premature very-low-birth-weight infants (VLBWI) was investigated by longitudinally assessing thyroid hormones concentrations during their early life after birth and analyzing the relationship to perinatal factors. The serum TT4 concentration on day 7 was (61.03±24.19)nmol/L and the incidence of TH was 12. 05% (n= 10). Pulmonary surfactant support ( OR = 14.25, 95% CI2. 61-70. 07), ventilation support ( OR = 13. 76,95% CI 2. 55-68. 05) , dopamine support ( OR = 9.45, 95% CI 2. 26-39. 5 ) , and gestational age less than 30 weeks ( OR = 5. 78,95% CI 1. 36-24. 49) were perinatal risk factors for TH of premature VLBWI.

AIM To investigate the transdermal delivery effects of cyclosporine A solubilized in mixed micelles composed of phospholipid and different surfactants. METHODS When applied onto the excised abdominal skin of the mice occlusively, the enhancing effects of various mixed micelles on the penetration of cyclosporin A were assessed by an in vitro permeation technique. In vivo study was carried out by topical application of sodium cholate-phospholipid mixed micelles onto the mice skin and drug blood concentration was detected. RESULTS In vitro, mixed micelles containing different surfactants displayed distinct permeability and corresponded to the following order: sodium cholate > sodium deoxycholate > Trition X-100 > Tween-20. In vivo, peak drug concentration was detected at 5 h and after that the concentration fell down slowly. CONCLUSION Mixed micelles were shown to be efficient carrier for the transdermal delivery of the lipophilic polypeptide when kept in solution during the application process.

Objective The aim of the study is to approach the clinical significance of the change of ST segments after di- rect percutaneous transcoronary angioplasty(PTCA) combined with Lipo-PGE_1 in treating Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI).Methods The change of the ST segments on EKG of 76 patients with AMI are observed in 30 minutes after un- derwent direct PICA combined with Lipo-PGE_1,and the relations are analyzed that are prospectively to their therapy effect,the degree of injured cardiac muscle,the cardial functions,and the prognosis.Results The patients who treated with the PCTA combined with Lipo-PGE_1 ST segments on EKG 30 minutes after operations reduced significantly,cardiac muscle is injured lowly,their cardial functions are better.Conclusion The change of ST segments after direct percutane- ous transcoronary angioplasty (PTCA) combined with Lipo-PGE_1 in treating acute myocardial infarction is one of the guide line to estimate the perfnsion of cardiac muscle,and to estimate prognosis farther.

OBJECTIVETo study the rehabilitation effects ergometry on COPD patients.
METHODSThirty COPD out-patients in our Hospital were randomly divided into 2 groups. Rehabilitation group, 15 patients, performed leg ergometry exercise of 80% peak Watt x 30min/d x 3d/w x 12w. Another 15 patients were control group without exercise. All patients received conventional therapy. Pulmonary function testing (PFT), cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), arterial blood gas analysis (ABG), Borg and CAT sores were done at both baseline and 12 w.
RESULTSThere was no statistically difference in lung function testing, blood gas analysis and cardiopulmonary exercise test when pre- exercises between 2 sub-groups. The IC, peak VO2 and peak, W of rehabilitation group significantly increased (P < 0.05); and Borg and CAT.scores significantly decreased (P < 0.05) from baseline; and other PFT and ABG did not change (P > 0.05). While there was no difference in control group (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONLeg submaximal ergometry rehabilitation improves health condition and ameliorate dyspnea symptoms in COPD patients.

Objective To evaluate the 64-slice CT angiography in characterizing the coronary venous anatomy and the arterio-venous relationship.Methods Sixty-four slice CT coronary veins angiography images of 300 patients(187 men and 113 women,)were analyzed.The visibility of the coronary veins and arterio-venous spatial relationship were assessed qualitatively on two-and three-dimensional displays.The diameter of the coronary sinus ostium(CSO),middle cardiac vein ostium(MCVO)and posterior vein of left ventricle ostium(PVLVO)were measured.All data was statistically processed with SPSS for Windows.Results The CS,great cardiac vein(GCV)and MCV could be clearly visualized in all of the images.1-3 branches of PVLV could be observed in 273 patients(91.0%).Small cardiac vein(SCV)and Marshall vein were found in 56(18.7%)and 24(8.0%)cases respectively.Three patients had permanent vena cava superior on the left and one patient had a CS diverticulum.Posterior descending artery(PDA)was concomitant with MCV in 189 cases(63.0%)and intersected with MCV in 96 cases(32.0%).Left circumflex artery(LCX)was concomitant with CS in 122 cases(40.7%),intersected with MCV in 15 cases(5.0%),and intersected with PVLV in 104 cases(34.7%).There were no significant differences in age,sex and CHD groups among CSO,MCV,PVLV value.The supero-inferior diameter of CSO had a significant difference between male and female(F=6.67,P<0.05).Conclusion Sixty-four slice CT venous angiography is able to be used for guiding electrophysiological procedures,which is especially useful due to the considerable variations in venous anatomy.

A research combined trickling filter system and active sludge aeration system was applied in the treatment of industrial wastewater from gas-generating with heavy oil. The wastewater contained both high contents of NH+4-N and mixed hydrocarbons including various PAHs. Its BOD5/COD ratio was less than 0.3 and belongs to recalcitrant, toxic wastewater. The results showed a touch-growth biofilms system was formed on the porous packing material and it played a key role in the decrease of toxicity of the influent. It could also improve the biodegradability of the wastewater.

Objective To investigate the effects of low frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on motor function and excitability of motor cortex in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and to study the mechanism of PD from the electrophysiology. Methods Twenty-eight patients with PD received 1 Hz rTMS therapy for 15 d. Thirty normal volunteers were enrolled as controls. Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) and motor evoked potential (MEP) were adopted as assessment indicators. The excitability of motor cortex was assessed by rest motor threshold (RMT), central motor conduction time (CMCT) and the amplitude of MEP. Results The initial RMTs and CMCTs of PD patients were significantly lower than those of the controls, but MEP amplitudes were not significantly different. After rTMS treatment, motor function of PD patients improved, RMTs increased and CMCTs prolonged. Conclusion In PD patients, motor function disorder and increased motor cortical excitability were observed. Low frequency rTMS may inhibit these changes to some extent.
