Objective To study the endothelium-dependent d il atative function (EDDF) in the patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and essentia l hypertension (EH). Methods A total of 25 DM patients and 25 EH were chosen as the experimental group and 20 matched normals were chosen a s the control group. EDDF was assessed with B-mode ultrasonography for the chan ges in the diameter of the brachial artery during reactive hyperemia and after t aking in nitroglycerin. Results The changes of brachial art ery diameter during reactive hyperemia were slighter in DM and EH patients. The changes of branchial artery diameter after sublingual glyceryl trinitrate were s lighter in DM patients. Conclusion Endothelial dysfunction exist in the patients with DM; and endothelium-dependent vasodilatative dysfunc tion exist in the patients with EH.

AIM: To investigate the role of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-?B) inhibitor in the responsiveness of isolated pulmonary artery rings to protein kinase C (PKC) in rats with hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension. METHODS: The pulmonary artery rings removed endothelium were prepared from model rats with hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension and control rats. The effects of PKC activator PMA (0.5 ?mol/L) time-response cures and NF-?B inhibitor PDTC (0- 1 000 ?mol/L) concentration-response cures on pulmonary artery rings were observed. The responsiveness of each ring was tested by applying a maximally effective concentration of phenylephrine (10 ?mol/L). Data were calculated as relative ratio by the maximally responseness ( P_0 ) setting at 100%,and the relative responseness tensions to PMA and PDTC were derived by dividing by the counts in P_0. t_ 1/2 and T show the time achieving half-maximal response and lasting maxima response to 0.5 ?mol/L PMA,respectively. RESULTS: mPAP and RV/(LV+S) in hypoxia group were greater than those in control group ( P

Objective To determine the effect of GnRH Ⅰ and GnRH Ⅱ on the secretion of VEGF by eutopic and ectopic endometrial stromal cells cultured in vitro, and to provide theoretical basis for exploring new treatments for endometriosis (EMs).Methods Eutopic and ectopic endometrium stromal cells cultured in vitro were treated with different concentrations of GnRH Ⅱ and a GnRH I(goserelin), and a control group was not treated by GnRH Ⅱ and GnRH Ⅰ. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure the content of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) protein in the medium of the above 2 groups.Results (1)There was no difference in the VEGF protein secreted by eutopic and ectopic stromal cells in the medium after being cultured in vitro for 48 h (P＞0.05).(2)10-10, 10-8, and 10-6mol/L GnRH Ⅱ dose-dependently reduced VEGF protein secreted by endometrial stromal cells (P＜0.05),and the inhibition effect was stronger than that of GnRH Ⅰ (P＜0.05).(3)The inhibition effect of GnRH Ⅱ on VEGF in ectopic stromal cells was stronger than that of eutopic stromal cells (P＜0.05).Conclusion (1)Ectopic stromal cells cultured in vitro can secrete VEGF,which has no difference from the eutopic stromal cells, and which may play an important role in the formation and development of EMs.(2)GnRH Ⅱ can dose-dependently reduce VEGF protein secreted by ectopic and eutopic endometrial stromal cells cultured in vitro,and the inhibition effect is stronger than that of GnRH Ⅰ, providing theoretical basis for exploring new treatments for EMs.

Objective To study the effects neuromuscular electrotherapy and kinesitherapy on brachial plexus palsy. Methods 20 patients with brachial plexus palsy accepted neuromuscular electrical stimulation on involved muscles, and were followed up for 18～58 months. Other 17 patients accepted neurolysis alone were as control. Results The function of shoulder and elbow in electric stimulation group was significantly superior to that of control (P<0.01). Conclusion Neuromuscular electrotherapy combined with kinestherapy is effective on the brachial plexus palsy.

This article applied stochastic frontier analysis to estimate the efficiency of the 2007 Beijing Medicine Development Foundation,and analyzed the dominant influencing factors of the performance.The following results were found out..(1) The performance of 2007 Beijing Medicine Development Foundation was good in general,however there was a 23％ gap between the actual output and the frontier output.As time passes by,the expected performance will get better.(2) There are large differences existed between various categories of projects and the different levels of institutions and project leaders.The relatively high profile projects,which means large input and more complexity,requires higher level of facility and environmental support,project manager's degree,professional title,while technical efficiency is not obvious for small scale independent innovation projects.

Objective To evaluate the performance of clinical medicine and joint research projects,funded by Capital Medical Research Fund.Method Data of clinical medicine and joint research projects were obtained from the project of Data analysis and evaluation of Capital Medical Development Scientific Research Fund.Out puts include published papers,undergraduate textbooks,prize,patents,students' trainingsnew techniques and follow-up projects; Each project is considered as an evaluation unit,the grant amount as input indicator.Then Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA),software MaxDEA 5.2 were used to calculate the relative performance of these projects.Result The rate of recovery of questionnaire was 77.70％.Among 115projects,the average score of new technology,prize obtained and patent are less than other output indexes.15 projects have no output,7 projects reached the effectiveness of DEA.11 projects obtained the pure technology efficiency,20 projects obtained scale efficiency.Conclusion The funding for projects in 2005 and 2007 are within the appropriate amount,while funding for some projects are excessive; certain projects have less outputs in personnel trainings,publications,the follow-up projects,published papers and achievements.In order to improve project performance,the quantity of published papers and personnel trainings has to be increased.

Objective To establish the rat model of collagen-induced arthritis and study the diagnostic value of MRI for early RA by comparing to pathological changes. Methods Thirty Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal groups and experimental groups.Fifteen rats of the experimental groups were immunized with type Ⅱ collagen and Freund's Adjuvant Incomplete. At the scheduled days, the selected rats of both experimental and normal groups underwent X-ray, 1.5T MR scan plus enhancement and histological analysis. Results Arthritis Index increased on the 14th day after immunization and reached the peak on the 28th day in the experimental group, the positivity of Anti-CⅡ antibody was significantly different from the normal group.The experiemental model was established in 93.33% of all rats. The enhanced MRI showed that 12 (12/15) rats presented with abnormal signs . The sensitivity of MRI was 85.71% and the specificity was 100%. There was no significant correlation could be found between MRI and histological changes X-ray revealed soft tissue swollen in 4 (4/15) rats, which showed that MRI had higher sensitivity in detecting abnormal signs of arthritis than X-ray. Conclusion MRI may be used in the early diagnosis of early RA.

Ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) is a rare, insidious and dangerous disease mostly occurs in the postpartum period. Early diagnosis and timely treatment are very important and may avoid serious complications. Here we reported a woman who had a fever and left back pain three days after vaginal delivery. Enhanced CT suggested that thrombosis occurred in the left ovarian vein, and even the renal vein was involved. Thrombus susceptibility gene detection revealed that the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 gene was 4G/5G heterozygous genotype and the 5,10- methylenetetra-hydrofolate reductase gene was C/T heterozygous genotype. Anticoagulant treatments with low-molecular-weight heparin and rivaroxaban were effective.

Objective To investigate the left ventricular function changes of dobutamine stress echocardiography(DSE) in the patients with chest pain.Methods The left ventricular systolic and diastolic function of patients was evaluated using two-dimensional and pulse Doppler echocardiography by DSE.Results After DSE,among the 18 patients,8 appeared abnormal regional motion in the wall of left ventricle and 10 were normal.The SV and CO of those remained normal were higher than those who appeared abnormal.For both normal and abnormal patients the E/A ration was smaller than 1 when dobutamine was at peak dose.Conclusion Using DSE on chest pain patients was an effective method in evaluating regional and global systolic function of the left ventricle and the effective detection data for left ventricular diastolic function is still to be determined.
