Objective To investigate the correlation of plasma N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) level with echocardiographic indicators and P wave terminal force of lead V 1 (PtfV1) in the patients with hypertension and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation(PAF) .Methods Fifty‐six outpatients and inpatients with hypertension were divided into the PAF group (n=26) and the sinusrhythm group (n=30) .Thirty age‐matched and gender‐matched healthy volunteers were taken as the control group . The plasma NT‐proBNP level was determined .Left ventricular enddiastolic diameter (LVEDD) ,left atrial diameter(LAD) and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) were examined by echocardiography .the 12‐lead electrocardiogram was routinely performed Pt‐fV1 was calculated .Results The plasma NT‐proBNP level in the PAF group was higher than that in the sinusrhythm group and the control group ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .The plasma NT‐proBNP level in the PAF group was de‐creased significantly after successful cardioversion .The plasma NT‐proBNP level in the PAF group was positively correlated with LVEDD(r=0 .543 ,P<0 .05) and LAD (r=0 .606 ,P<0 .01) .The plasma NT‐proBNP level was negatively correlated with LVEF (r= -0 .750 ,P<0 .01) and positively correlated with the PtfV 1 absolute value (r= 0 .513 ,P< 0 .01) .Conclusion The plasma NT‐proBNP level can better reflect the heart structure and function in the patients with atrial fibrillation .Detecting the plasma NT‐proBNP level combined with echocardiographic indicators and PtfV 1 is conducive to comprehensively assess the heart function in the patients with hypertension and PAF .

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of plasma NT-pro brain natriuretic peptide guided therapy of β1-blocker to patients with moderate and severe heart failure.Methods A total of 1 95 patients with moderate and severe heart failure were ran-domized to the clinical group and the BNP group.The use of β1-blocker was guided by monitoring clinical representation and the changes of BNP values respectively.The duration of initiative use ofβ1-blocker,the recurrence of heart failure,the mortality due to heart failure and the mean dosage ofβ1-blocker were observed and analysed.Results Compared with the clinical group,the time of initiative use ofβ1-blocker was significantly shorter in NT-proBNP group[(5.89±1.76)d vs .(7.03±2.08)d,P <0.01].The mean dosage ofβ1-blocker is significantly higher in BNP group than that in clinical group[(47.65 ± 13.09 )mg/d vs .(35.08 ± 1 1.08) mg/d,P <0.01].The recurrence and mortality of heart failure were similar in two groups(P >0.05).Conclusion NT-proBNP-guided therapy ofβ1-blocker might contribute to early use and tolerance of higher dosage ofβ1-blocker in patients with NYHA Ⅲ-Ⅳ class heart function,with no extra adverse event.

Objective To analyze the CT findings of tuberculous lymphadenitis in parotid gland, so as to improve the diagnostic accuracy of tuberculosis of parotid gland. Methods Nine cases with tuberculous lymphadenitis in parotid gland confirmed by surgical pathology and acid-fast bacilli after preoperative spiral CT plain scan and two phases dynamic enhancement scan were retrospectively analyzed.Imaging findings of CT were reviewed and compared with surgical pathology. Results Seven of the 9 cases of tuberculosis of the parotid gland occurred in the left side, and 2 in the right side, and superficial lobe involvement occurred in 8 cases and deep lobe in 1 ease. The lesion was classified as tumour type (8 cases)and infiltration type (1 case). In tumour type, the number of lesion was from 1 to 4, and the size was from 2.7 to 5.3 cm in diameter. One case of infiltration type measured 3.4 cm in diameter. On CT plain scan,the lesions showed homogeneous slight high-density with regular edge in 5 cases and irregular low-density in 4 cases, and 2 of them with partly blurred edge. On CT enhanced scan, uniform moderate enhancement was seen in 3 cases, circular enhancement in 4 cases, inhomogeneous enhancement in 1 case, and lace-like enhancement in 1 case. Local infiltration occurred in 6 cases. Lymphadenovarix in the same side of lesion occurred in 2 cases. Conclusion CT findings of tuberculous lymphadenitis in parotid gland present diversification, which correlate well with pathological changes. Understanding of characteristic CT findings of tuberculous lymphadenitis in parotid gland is helpful for differential diagnosis, but final diagnosis still depends on pathology and acid-fast baeilli.

【Objective】 To observe the effect of Xiaozhongzhitong Mixture on ischemia-reperfusion injury of rat skin flaps and p38MAPK-PPARγ/NF-κB signaling pathway. 【Methods】 After flap operation, the survival of rat back flaps and flap survival rate were observed. HE staining, TUNEL staining, and qRT-PCR were used to detect the degree of nuclear destruction, as well as the distribution characteristics and mRNA expression levels of p38MAPK, PPARγ, and Nf-κB in vascular endothelial cells of rat flaps, respectively. 【Results】 The flap survival area in sham operation group was the largest, and it was the smallest in model control group and PPARγ inhibitor group. HE staining and TUNEL staining results showed that the flap tissue cells of rats in model control group and PPARγ inhibitor group were severely damaged and obvious apoptotic cells were seen. In model group, rats’ skin flap tissue cells were arranged in a single layer, and the nucleus was intact and clear. qRT-PCR experiment results showed that compared with model group, the expressions of p38MAPK and Nf-κb in the flap tissue of rats in Xiaozhong Zhicong Mixture group were inhibited (P<0.05), while the expression of PPARγ was increased (P<0.05). When the blocker was added, the expressions of p38MAPK, NF-κB and PPARγ in the flap tissue were further suppressed. 【Conclusion】 Xiaozhongzhitong Mixture can alleviate the infiltration of inflammatory cells in the rat model of skin flap ischemia-reperfusion injury, reduce inflammation and the production of apoptotic cells, thereby alleviating the ischemia-reperfusion injury of skin flaps and promoting the survival of the flaps. The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of p38MAPK-PPARγ/NF-κB signaling pathway.
