Objective:To explore influence of different guide wire on transradial coronary angiography (CAG). Methods:A total of 238 patients,who received successful transradial CAG in our hospital from Nov 2009 to Jan 2013,were selected.According to kinds of guide wire,they were divided into group A (n=119,used ordinary J type exchange guide wire)and group B (n=119,used loach exchange guide wire.Trafficability,supporting force and incidence rate of complications were compared between above two groups.Results:The trafficability of loach exchange guide wire was significantly better than that of ordinary J type exchange guide wire,the pass rates of elbow joint (98.3% vs.87.4%)and brachiocephalic trunk (100% vs.96.2%)were significantly higher than those of or-dinary J type exchange guide wire (P<0.01 or <0.05).For guide wire support to rotate catheter,ordinary J type exchange guide wire had obvious advantages,its success rate of left CAG (98.3%)was significantly higher than that of loach exchange guide wire (89.1%),P<0.01.There were no significant differences in incidence rate of compli-cations between two groups.Conclusion:Ordinary J type exchange guide wire could be preferred in coronary angiog-raphy,and loach exchange guide wire can be considered if the former can't pass.

The clinical data of a child with paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) and being diagnosed and treated in the Department of Pediatrics of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in October 2018 were analyzed retrospectively.The male patient was 13 years old.The clinical manifestation was the change of body position, and the temporary movement cannot appear.The manifestations included the turning of head to one side, the falling back of neck, head shaking, swinging, the tightly hugging of hands in front of the chest, the touching of two tiptoes to the ground, numb sole, and ache.Gene detection: chromosome 16p11.2 (chr16: 29594293-30189789) had about 595.5 kb heterozygosity deletion.A total of 8 cases of 16p11.2 microdeletion in children with PKD were reported in details.16p11.2 microdeletion is another form of gene expression that causes PKD.16p11.2 microdeletion should be screened for genetic evaluation in patients with PKD.

ObjectiveTo review the efficacy and safety in secondary prevention of ischemic stroke with cilostazol or aspirin.Methodswe searched Cochrane Library(the 4th issue, 2009 ), PubMed(1980.1～2009.11), EMBASE(1980.1～2009.11), CBM(1978.1～2009.11), CNKI(1979.1～2009.11) and some other databases, then collected all of the studies describing the outcomes in curing the ischemic stroke after taking cilostazol or aspirin. According to the strict inclusion and exclusion criteria, two reviewers independently selected trials, extracted datas, made cross-checking and methodological quality assessment of the homogeneity studies by using the Cochrane systematic review methods, then made Meta analysis using RevMan 5.0 software.ResultsThis systematic review study included two randomized controlled trials and a cross-over trial, which contained a total of 838 participants. The evidence quality of one of the randomized controlled trials was high, however, the evidence quality of another randomized controlled trial and the cross-over trial was poor. Meta analysis results suggested that the effectiveness of cilostazol and aspirin in the secondary prevention of ischemic stroke performed no significantly statistical difference: primary endpoint(30 d［RR=3.00, 95%CI(0.31,28.70)］; 90 d［RR=1.67, 95%CI(0.40,6.92)］; 180 d［RR=1.25, 95%CI(0.50, 3.13)］; 360 d［RR=0.65, 95%CI(0.33, 1.29)］; 540 d［RR=0.80,95%CI(0.54, 1.18)］); combined endpoint(30 d［RR=4.00, 95%CI(0.45,35.61)］; 90 d ［RR=1.75,95%CI(0.52,5.93)］; 180 d［RR=1.00, 95%CI(0.48, 2.07)］; 360 d ［RR=0.77, 95%CI(0.45, 1.29)］; 540 d［RR=0.66,95%CI(0.40,1.09)］); the recurrence of ischemic stroke: cilostazol group: RR=0.64, 95%CI(0.31,1.30)，aspirin group: RR=0.21, 95%CI(0.04,1.06); PDMP［RR=1.00, 95%CI(0.39, 2.58)］. But in terms of the probability of intracranial hemorrhage (［RR=7.14, 95%CI(0.7,58.33)］) and other safety standards, taking cilostazol performed lower than taking aspirin.ConclusionThe side effects of cilostazol and aspirin in the treatment for ischemic stroke were similar to each other, but in terms of the probability of dizziness, headache, tachycardia and palpitation, taking cilostazol performed higher than taking aspirin, however, taking cilostazol performed lower in the probability of intracranial hemorrhage and other organ hemorrhage than taking aspirin. Since this study included a small amount of studies, in which the evidence quality of one of the randomized controlled trials and the cross-over study was poor, therefore, it would be necessary to make a further validation with lots of high-quality clinical trials.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical and genetic characteristics of a child with clinical manifestations of hypoplasia, epilepsy and abnormal face. METHODS: The clinical data of the child were collected. The peripheral blood samples of the patient and his parents were extracted for high-throughput sequencing, and Sanger sequencing verification and bioinformatics analysis were performed to detect suspected pathogenic variants. RESULTS: The clinical manifestations of the child were overall developmental backwardness, seizures, autism, and special facial appearance. High throughput sequencing showed that there was a heterozygous mutation of exon 11: c.1920_c.1927delCCTCTACC (p.Ser641Rfs*31) of the DYRK1A gene. The same variant was found in neither of her parents, suggesting that it has a denovo origin. CONCLUSION The exon11: c.1920_c.1927delCCTCTACC (p.Ser641Rfs*31) mutation in DYRK1A gene was the genetic etiology of the case, which enriches the pathogenic gene spectrum of DYRK1A and provides the basis for clinical diagnosis and genetic counseling.

Objective To study the serum levels of adisintegrin and metalloproteases 17(ADAM17)and C-X-C chemokine ligand 16(CXCL16)in patients with chronic atrophic gastritis(CAG)and their clinical value.Methods A total of 174 patients admitted to Xidian Group Hospital Affiliated to Shaanxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2018 to January 2020 due to abdominal discomfort and other symptoms were selected.Based on pathological biopsy results,they were divided into CAG group(n=94)and non CAG group(n=80).The CAG group was divided into mild group(n=27),moderate group(n=30),and severe group(n=37)based on the severity.Meanwhile,50 healthy examinees were used as the control group.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect serum ADAM17 and CXCL16 levels.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors of CAG occurrence,and the diagnostic values of serum ADAM17 and CXCL16 for CAG were analyzed using receiver operating characteristic curves.Results The serum levels of ADAM17(79.25±9.34ng/L)and CXCL16(4.66±0.58μg/L)in CAG group were higher than those in non-CAG group(73.94±8.26ng/L,4.03±0.55μg/L)and control group(53.04±7.20ng/L,1.02±0.35μg/L),and the differences were statistically significant(t=5.794,24.854;11.053,55.497,all P＜0.05).The serum levels of ADAM17(87.17±9.30ng/L)and CXCL16(5.14±0.51μg/L)in severe CAG patients were higher than those in mild CAG group(79.12±9.52ng/L,4.65±0.57μg/L)and moderate groups(68.54±7.89ng/L,4.02±0.63μg/L),and the differences were statistically significant(t=11.574,5.152;11.065,4.987,all P＜0.05).Serum ADAM17(OR=1.851,95%CI:1.350～2.522)and CXCL16(OR=1.682,95%CI:1.233～2.296)were independent risk factors for CAG.The area under the curve of serum ADAM17 and CXCL16 combined diagnosis of CAG was 0.912(95%CI:0.858～0.949),which was larger than the single indicator of 0.843(95%CI:0.801～0.907)and 0.785(95%CI:0.722～0.834),and the differences were statistically significant(Z= 9.357,12.894,all P＜0.05).Conclusion The serum levels of ADAM17 and CXCL16 were increased in CAG patients,indicating they may be related to the severity of CAG.The combined detection of ADAM17 and CXCL16 has a high predictive value for CAG.

Objective To investigate the clinical application of scalp skin grafts in reconstruction of external auditory meatus in congenital aural atresia.Methods We conducted a retrospective study on 85 patients of congenital aural atresia,all of whom were unilateral,operated from March of 2008 to December of 2010 in ENT department of the Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital.The patients enrolled in the study were between 6 to 37 years old (median age 12 years),55 male and 30 female.Scalp surface graft in ipsilateral temporal region was harvested to cover the bony external auditory meatus.Results All of these scalp split-thickness skin grafts survived without necrosis,no restenosis was found in these external auditory meatus.Neither scar nor alopecia was found in the skin-harvesting region,and hairs grew well.Granulations occurred in 27 cases in the first to sixth month posteroperatively,20 cases recovered after local treatment.In the first year,30 cases obtained hearing improvement more than 15 dB,36 cases gained more than 25 dB and 19 cases gained more than 35 dB.Totally 8 patients were lost in the 4 to 5 years of follow-up,70 cases (70/77,90.9％) developed new external auditory meatus,7 cases (7/77,9.1％) suffered from stenosis in different degrees,but no atresia was found in these patients.Conclusion Scalp split-thickness skin grafts has significant clinical advantage in meatoplasty of congenital aural atresia.

OBJECTIVE： To provide reference for the establishment of quality standard of Tussilago farfara formula granules. METHODS： TLC method was used for qualitative identification of tussilagone in T. farfara formula granules. The content of tussilagone in T. farfara formula granule was determined by HPLC. The determination was performed on a Thermo ODS Hypersil C18 column with the mobile phase consisted of methanol-water （85 ∶ 15， V/V） at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 220 nm， the column temperature was 25 ℃. Sample size was 20 μL.  RESULTS： TLC spots of tussilagone were clear and well-separated， without interference from negative control. The linear range of tussilagone was 1.39-27.75 μg/mL （r＝0.999 9）. The limits of quantification and detection were 0.153 87 and 0.051 42 μg/mL， respectively. RSDs of precision， stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 2％. The recoveries were 97.12％-103.96％ （RSD＝2.60％， n＝6）. CONCLUSIONS： The method is simple， accurate and reproducible， and suitable for quality control of T. farfara formula granules.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of nystagmus during the Dix-Hallpike and Roll tests in patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) using three-dimensional videonystagmography (3D-VNG), in order to to optimize diagnostic and therapeutic strategies of BPPV. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 68 patients with posterior semicircular canal (PSC)-BPPV and 26 patients with horizontal semicircular canal (HSC)-BPPV. Nystagmus data obtained from 3D-VNG were reviewed for all patients, with a focus on the eye movement components during the Dix-Hallpike test in PSC-BPPV patients and the Roll test in HSC-BPPV patients. The direction and reversal rates of the vertical, horizontal, and torsional components were recorded and analyzed. Results All PSC-BPPV patients exhibited highly consistent three-dimensional nystagmus characteristics during the Dix-Hallpike test: vertical nystagmus was uniformly upward, torsional nystagmus was predominantly clockwise in left-side BPPV patients (17/23) and counterclockwise in right-side BPPV patients (44/45), while the horizontal component was mostly directed contralaterally (50/68); upon transitioning from the head-hanging to the sit-up position, vertical nystagmus components in all patients reversed, and torsional and horizontal nystagmus components reversed in approximately 50.0% or more patients. Among HSC-BPPV patients, right-side BPPV patients all showed right-beating (geotropic) horizontal nystagmus with predominantly upward vertical component (16/19), while most left-side BPPV patients showed left-beating horizontal nystagmus (6/7) with predominantly downward vertical component (6/7). During head rotation toward the healthy side, most (25/26) HSC-BPPV patients exhibited a reversal in the horizontal nystagmus direction, reduced intensity compared to the affected side, with a reversal in vertical components in 3 patients, and atypical torsional components. Conclusions 3D-VNG could precisely quantitative analyze three-dimensional features of nystagmus in BPPV patients, improve diagnostic accuracy in canal and side localization, particularly in PSC-BPPV patients.
