ObjectiveTo investigate the association of angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) gene polymorphism and its serum levels with cerebral infarction, and further to explore its possible mechanism. MethodsEighty-four patients with cerebral infarction(cerebral infarction group) and 74 healthy controls(healthy control group) underwent the determination of ACE gene insertion/deletion polymorphism by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and agarose gel electrophoresis(AGE). The serum levels of ACE were measured simultaneously. The difference in distribution of ACE gene polymorphism was compared between cerebral infarction group and ealthy control group. ResultsThe frequency of DD genotype in cerebral infarction group was significantly higher than that of healthy control group(50% vs 28% ,P<0.01); so was the frequency of D allele(64% vs 46% ,P<0.05). ACE gene polymorphism was associated with the serum level of ACE. A significant difference in serum ACE level was observed among three ACE genotypes. The highest serum ACE level or activity was in deletion homozygote(genotype DD), followed by heterzygote(genotype ID) and insertion homozygote(genotype Ⅱ)(P<0.01). ConclusionThe polyrnorphism of ACE gene and serum level of ACE are associated with cerebral infarction. The DD gene type of ACE and D allele may be the risk factor for cerebral infarction.

Objective To detect the level of plasma superoxide dismutase(SOD) in patients with lung cancer and effect of chemotherapy(CGM + CBP) on it,and to investigate the role of SOD in the development .of lung cancer. Methods Xanthine oxidation enzyme was availabe to detect the level of plasma SOD in 30 cases of normal control subjects and 29 cases of patients with lung cancer before and after first, second, third cycle of chemotherapy. Resuits The levels of plasma SOD in lung cancer after chemotherapy were lower than those in the control group(P＜0.01). The level of plasma SOD in lung cancer after first and second chemo-cycle was higher than that before, but lower than that of control group(P＜0.01), the differences between after third chemo-cycle and control group were not significant(P＞0.05 ). The differences in squamoun cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma before chemothrapy and after were not significant (P＞0.05 ). The differences in squamoun cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma and adenosquamoun carcinoma before chemotherapy and after were highly significant (P＜0.01 ). The differences in each chemo-cycle were highly significant (P＜0.01). Conclusion SOD played an important role in growth, regulation and treatment of lung cancer,and it might be a clinical index in lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the role of zenapax in the prevention of acute rejection in renal transplant recipients.Methods The medical records of 50 renal transplant recipients treated with one dose of zenapax(study group) and simultaneously 30 renal transplant recipients without treatment of zenapax(control group) were retrospectively analyzed.The follow-up was six months.The incidence of acute rejection,renal allograft function,infection,and adverse effects of zenapax were comparatively analyzed between the 2 groups.Results Acute rejection rate was lower in study group(13/50,26%) compared with that in control group(17/30,57%;P)(0.05)).Conclusions One dose regimen of zenapax as part of immunosuppressive therapy is effective in the prevention of acute rejection in renal transplant recipients.It has less side effects and contributes to the improvement of renal allograft function.

Objective To uncover the possible factors of rapid increasing incidence of syphilis. Methods The clinical data of 100 patients firstly diagnosed as syphilis and their spouses were analyzed. Results There were 65 couples (130 cases) both were infected with syphilis, accounting for 65%. Among these cases, 25 males firstly diagnosed, 15 of them were primary syphilis; and 40 females firstly diagnosed as syphilis, 32 of them were secondary syphilis. Among 65 syphilis couples, 48 spouses were quickly diagnosed as syphilis through contact tracing, but the other 17 spouses were not diagnosed as syphilis until 1~3 months later, and most of them were latent syphilis, accounting for 83.2%(54/65). Chancre, which may be noticed by the patients themselves, was not so common in this group of patients, accounted for only 28.5%(37/130), and mainly in males. Conclusions The infections rate of syphilis between spoused is high, especially latent syphilis, and chancre is low, which might be one of the factors for the rapid spreading of the disease.
