2.Endothelial function and platelet activation in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and the influence of beta-blocker on them
Chinese Journal of Geriatrics 2011;30(3):184-187
Objective To examine the serum von Willebrand factor (vWF) and soluble Pselectin levels in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF), and to observe the influence of beta-blocker treatment on endothelial function and platelet activation in NVAF patients. Methods The 25 subjects, 17 males and 8 females, with persistent NVAF and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)≥50%, were enrolled in NVAF group. Those with myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy or hyperthyroidism were excluded. Another 35 subjects with sinus rhythm were as control (age,gender and LVEF matched with NVAF group, and with similar cardiovascular diseases). Serum vWF and soluble P-selectin levels were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results The serum vWF level was significantly higher in NVAF group than in control group [(1945.2±111.3) g/L vs. (1862.3±101.6) g/L, P<0.05]. However, there was no significant difference in serum soluble P-selectin level between NVAF group and control group [(24.32±9.21) g/L vs. (24.68±11.70) g/L, P>0. 05]. After administration of beta-blocker, a down-regulation was found in serum vWF level [(1758. 3±152. 4) g/L, P<0. 01], but not in soluble P-selectin level [(21.05±8. 94) g/L, P>0. 05]. There was no relationship between serum level of vWF and soluble P-selectin (r=-0.008,P>0. 05). Conclusions High serum level of vWF is found in patients with persistent NVAF as compared with control, indicating endothelial damage/dysfunction in those patients. After administration of beta-blocker, serum level of vWF drops dramatically in NVAF patients, indicating possible endothelial function protection of beta-blocker.

Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2011;34(19):16-18
Objective To explore the efficacy, safety,time of drug taking effect and therapeutic dosage of sertraline in treatment of child emotional disorder. Method One hundred and forty-seven patientswith child emotional disorder were treated by sertraline and the efficacy rate, therapeutic dosage, the time of drug taking effect and adverse reaction was analyzed retrospectively. Results One hundred and thirty-seven patients were regular visited under supervision of a physician. Two months after treatment, the efficacy rate was 80.3%(110/137) and the rate of adverse reaction was 5.8%(8/137). The therapeutic dosage of sertraline was (47.9 + 19.0) mg/d. The time of drug taking effect was (20.4±13.2) d. The therapeutic dosage of sertraline in obsessive-compulsive disorder [(58.7±26.2) mg/d] was significantly higher than that in depression[(43.6±14.0) mg/d],anxiety disorder[(44.4±10.6) mg/d] and phobia[(43.5±15.5) mg/d](P < 0.01 ). The time of drug taking effect in depression[( 14.0±6.1 ) d] was significantly shorter than that in obsessive-compulsive disorder[(26.6±16.3) d,anxiety disorder [(22.3±13.9) d] and phobia [(21.4±12.8) d] (P <0.01). Conclusions Sertraline is an efficient and safe medicine in treatment of child emotional disorder. Its adverse reaction is slight and most patients can tolerate. But it takes higher therapeutic dosage in obsessive-compulsive disorder and the time of drug taking effect is earlier in depression than in other disorder.

10.Discussion on the strategy of standardized resident training model of vascular ultrasonogra-phy
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2015;(9):949-952
Resident doctor is the beginning period of a doctor career. Resident standardization training is the basement period for the clinical ability training and is the important part for medical students after graduation education. Vascular ultrasonography belongs to ultrasound medicine and has its own discipline characteristics. The diagnosis accuracy of vascular ultrasonography largely depends on the accumulation of basic knowledge of multiple clinical sciences , standardization of operation techniques and especially the accurate application of hemodynamic theory. According to the discipline characteristics of vascular ultrasonography, we train the residents from the following five aspects: basic theory knowledge, operation techniques, clinic thinking ability, sciences research ability, communica-tion and team work ability. On the basis of practice, we explore the establishment of standardized training mode for medical professionals of vascular ultrasnography in China, training practical, innova-tive and independent talents, to provide reference for improving the professional level of vascular ultra-sound in our country.
