AIM:To establish a kind of simple and efficient method for cell-free fetal DNA ( cff-DNA) enrich-ment and to investigate its range of applications and the advantages and disadvantages.METHODS:(1) The single nucleo-tide polymorphisms( SNPs) , which linked to paternalβ-thalassemia mutations, were screened.We analyzed the contact be-tween the SNPs inβ-thalassemia gene ( HBB gene) and haploid type by the Haploview software, and then selected these close SNPs which have higher heterozygosity with the HBB gene.(2) We selected 4 cases of different β-thalassemia muta-tions with their husband, and then we used TT-FAST-COLD-PCR to enrich the IVS-II-654 mutations in maternal plasma.If the IVS-II-654 mutation was not detected, we detected the SNP which linked to the IVS-II-654 mutation.Similarly, we used TT-FULL-COLD-PCR to enrich the CD41-42 mutations in the maternal plasma.At the same time, we used the conventional PCR to enrich CD41-42 mutation and IVS-II-654 mutation in the maternal plasma.RESULTS:(1) Nine cases of the SNP ( rs7480526) linked to the mutation at IVS-II-654 in HBB gene, and 11 cases of the SNP ( rs10768683) linked to the muta-tion at CD41-42 in HBB gene were detected.( 2 ) We detected 1 case who inherited the paternal β-thalassemia mutation (IVS-II-654).We did not directly detect patermal IVS-II-654 mutation in maternal plasma, but detected the SNP linked to the IVS-II-654 mutation in the other case and had 100%detection, and 2 cases inherited the paternal β-thalassemia muta-tions (CD41-42) in the maternal plasma by TT-FULL-COLD-PCR and had 100%detection.However, we detected nothing by conventional PCR.CONCLUSION:TT-COLD-PCR is applicable to enrich cell-free fetal DNA in maternal plasma and is a method in the field of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis.

Aim To observe the effect of a treatment proposal named “Golden Triangle” ( Atorvastatin, Tongxinluo,and Aspirin) on the vasa vasorum angio-genesis of early atherosclerosis lesions in rabbits carotid artery. Method Seventy-two healthy New Zealand rabbits with half males and half females were divided into 6 groups randomly ( n =12 ):control group, model group, Tongxinluo group ( TXL ) , atorvastatin group ( ATO ) , aspirin group ( ASP ) , golden triangle group ( ATS) . The control group was fed with common feed-stuff, and all the other groups′ right carotid arteries were equipped with the silicone tube,and were then fed with fatty feedstuff. The Tongxinluo group, the Atorvas-tatin group and the Aspirin group were given suspen-sion of Tongxinluo supermicro powder(0. 3 g·kg-1 · d-1 ) , Atorvastatin ( 2. 5 mg · kg-1 · d-1 ) and Aspirin (12 mg·kg-1·d-1),the golden triangle group were given suspension of Tongxinluo supermicropowder (0. 3g·kg-1 ·d-1),atorvastatin(2. 5 mg·kg-1 · d-1 ) and Aspirin ( 12 mg · kg-1 · d-1 ) . All the groups were fed with medicine for 4 weeks. Tissue slice of carotid artery was stained with HE and observed un-der light microscope. The change of blood liquid was detected by biochemical assay. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the protein expression of CD34 around the carotid artery adventitia. Color micro-sphere method was used to detect the blood flow vol-ume change of the cartoid artery microvascular. VEFG, VEGFR-2 gene and protein expression in the cartoid artery were detected by Real-time PCR and Western Blot. Result Compared with the control group,the content of VEGF, VEGFR-2 gene and pro-tein expression and the microvascular blood flow vol-ume of cartoid artery microvascular in the model were significantly increased ( P <0. 01 ) . But those in each drug group were lighter than those in the model group (P<0. 01,P <0. 05). In the ATS group,the content of VEGF, VEGFR-2 gene and protein expression and the microvascular blood flow volume of cartoid artery microvascular were lower than those in the TXL, ATO and ASP group ( P <0. 01 , P <0. 05 ) . Compared with the ASP group,the content of VEGFR-2 protein expres-sion was significantly decreased(P<0. 01)in the TXL and ATO group. VEGF,VEGFR-2 gene and protein ex-pression in different subgroups showed no significant difference( P >0. 05 ) . The content of CD34 was de-creased in TongxinLuo group,atorvastatin group,aspirin group and ATS group. Conclusion The ATS project can reduce the expression of VEGF,VEGFR-2, inhibit the vasa vasorum angiogenesis and decrease proinflam-matory substances in the tunica media and intima of vascular wall. It plays an important role in intervening in the process of AS.

Objective To study the effect of angiotensin Ⅱ and aldosterone (ALD) in patients with congenital heart disease by preoperative nursing interventions at high altitude area. Methods 86 patients with congenital heart disease were divided into the experimental group and the control group on average by random. The experimental group was treated with preoperative nursing interventions and routine nursing before operation and the control group was treated with routine nursing only. Angiotensin Ⅱ and aldosterone were detected before anesthesia, 30min after operation and after pulling out of endotracheal tube respectively. Results The concentration of Angiotensin Ⅱ and aldosterone was significantly lower in the experimental group than the control group. Conclusions The risk of open surgical operation for congenital heart disease at high altitude can be reduced by preoperative nursing interventions.
