Objective To observe the effects and the functions of valsartan and simvastatin in early diabetic nephropathy. Methods A total of 80 patients with early diabetic nephropahy were randomly divided into two groups.The patients in control group(n=40)received valsartan at a dose of 80rag/day ,while in treated group(n=40)on the base of the same treatment as control group, added simvastatin 20 mg/everyrfight. To compare the differences of lipids,urine albumin excretion rate(UAER) and C-reactive protein(CRP) before or after treatments through 12 weeks. Re-sults The UAER of two groups decreased obviously after therapy,especially the treated group(P<0.01) ;the lipids and CRP also decreased evidently in the treated group (P<0.05). Conclusion The lipids, UAER, CRP of patients in early diabetic nephropathy could be down-regulated,with combined medication of the simvastatin and valsartan, and the injury of renal alleviated.

Objective To establish the biostereometric system of breast volume measurement and to estimate the precision and reliability of the designed system. Methods Biostereometric system of breast volume measurement was built upon the biostereometrics based on computer stereo vision and image processing. One laser projector was used as illuminating source, two CCD cameras were mounted for photo-taken, a series of parallel points were provided through a piece of grating. The volumes of 12 female breast models were tested by water displacement (golden standard) and biostereometric analysis. Results The maximum size of marks we photographed was within 120 mm?140 mm?80 mm. The characters of the system was rapid, non-contact and noninvasive. The validity and reliability of determination of breast volume between biostereometric system and golden standard had no significant difference, compared to water displacement (P=0.473). Conclusions Biostereometric system of breast volume measurement will be suited for the clinical application. The study offers a noninvasive, non-contact, rapid and accurate morphologic method and provides a new theory foundation for morphological analysis.

Objective: Affective disorder patients can be effectively treated by electro-acupuncture methods without many side effects, but the mechanism of the treatment is not known. The object of this study was to discover whether there is change of guanine-nucleotide-binding protein (G-protein) level in platelets membrane from major depression patients before and after treatment by fluoxetine and electro-acupuncture. Methods:We utilized selective antibodies to quantitate the levels of the G-protein ? subunits in platelets membrane of 78 major depression patients (24 received fluoxetine treatment, 24 received electo-acupuncture treatment and 30 received placebo treatment) and 30 matched comparison subjects.Result:Levels of both G?i and G?q of the patient groups were higher than matched normal comparison subjects before treatment of fluoxetine and electro-acupuncture,the level of G?i and G?q did not change after the treatment of fluoxetine, electro-acupuncture and placebo. The level of G?s wasn't significantly different with matched comparison subjects.Conclusion:The levels of G?i、G?q in platelets membrane from major depression patients are higher than normal, the high levels of G?i and G?q in platelets membrane may be a trait abnormality for major depression patients, not a state abnormality for major depression.

Objective To summarize the experience of heart-lung transplantation.Methods Four patients with Eisenmenger’s syndrome underwent heart-lung homoplastic transplantation. All patients were complicated with severe pulmonary hypertension in New York Heart Association ( NYHA ) functional class IV. Cannulation for cardiopulmonary bypass consisted of a cannula in the high ascending aorta and separate vena caval cannulas. The heart-lung graft was moved into the chest, beginning with passage of the lung before the phrenic nerve pedicle. The bronchus was trimmed, leaving two cartilaginous rings proximal to the orifice of the upper lobe. The tracheal anastomosis was performed with a continuous 4-0 polypropylene suture, with the posterior portion continuously and anterior interrupted. The lungs were then ventilated (

Objective The comparison research of protective effect between intravenous infusion injection of safflor yellow and hydroxyl safflor yellow A on acute myocardial ischemia injury in rats. Methods Qualified 60 male Wistar rats were divided into 5 groups at random (12 in each group):Blank control group, AMI model (treated with normal saline) group, intravenous infusion injection of safflor yellow (90 mg/kg) group, HSYA low dosage (20 mg/kg) group and high dosage (40 mg/kg) group. The acute myocardial ischemia injury in rats was induced by ligating the anterior descending coronary artery in Wistar rats and administered different dosage of safflor yellow and hydroxyl safflor yellow A with intraperitoneal injection. Myocardial infarction degree (MID) was calculated by detecting myocardial infarction area with nitroblue tetrazolium(NBT) assay. The changes of ST-elevation, CK-MB, cTnT, SOD activities and MDA contents were detected and analyzed. Results The intravenous injection of safflor yellow and HSYA low dosage group can significantly decreased ST-elevation [difference is (0.087?.022)mv,(0.091?.014)mv],MID[difference is (20.13?.17)%,(18.36+9.38)%], CK-MB [difference is (1460.70+219.73)U/L, (1472.72?85.61)U/L], cTnT[difference is (2.345?.883)ng/ml, (2.358?.843)ng/ml], and MDA [difference is(5.71 ?.67) mmol/ml, (5.76?.84)mmol/ml] contents in serum, increased SOD[difference is(58.27?.99)U/ml,(56.49+5.19)U/ml]activities in serum.Conclusion It showed that intra venous injection of safflor yellow and hydroxyl safflor yellow A had the same protective effect on acute myocardial ischemia injury in rats. Hydroxyl safflor yellow A is an important portion of safflor yellow.

Objective To evaluate the strictness and self-consistency of the charge nurses in the nurses examination using venipunctnre trocar operation as research object.Methods FACETS,the polyhedral Rasch software was used in the examination.Results The strictness and self-consistency of charge nurses were evidently different.Conclusions The variable strictness and self-consistency of the charge nurses in the examination leads to unreliability of the results.Developing a scientific and reliable evaluation system is essential to improve the ability of the teaching nurses and the student nurses as well as the hospital nursing quality.

Objective To investigate the relationship of serum levels of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), matrix metallo-proteinase-9 (MMP-9), hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) with the severity of acute cerebral infarction (ACI). Methods 101 pa-tients with ACI were envolved and divided into 3 groups according to the scores of National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS):mild group (group A, n=38, NIHSS score<4), moderate group (group B, n=36, NIHSS score 4-15) and severe group (group C, n=27, NIHSS score>15). Meanwhile, 44 non-ACI inpatients with atherosclerosis were included as control group (group D). Their serum MIF and MMP-9 were detected with ELISA, and hs-CRP with immunoturbidimety. Results The levels of serum MIF, MMP-9 and hs-CRP ranged from more to less as groups C, B, A and D (P<0.05). There was positive correlation of MIF with MMP-9 (r=0.301, P<0.01) and hs-CRP (r=0.309, P<0.001). Conclusion Serum MIF, MMP-9 and hs-CRP levels increased with the severity in ACI patients, which may be prediction of athero-sclerotic plaque instability.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and efficacy of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with NPM1 and FLT3 mutations.Methods NPM1 and FLT3 mutations were detected in 67 patients with newly diagnosed AML by PCR-capillary electrophoresis.The relationship was analyzed between the mutations and efficacy.Results The incidence of NPM1 mutation was 10.4％ (7/67) in total AML patients and 26.1％ (6/23) in normal karyotypes AML patients.The incidence of FLT3-ITD mutation was 10.4％ (7/67) in total AML patients and 17.4％ (4/23) in normal karyotypes AML patients.The characteristics of 60 NPM1 wild type patients vs that of 7 NPMl mutation patients was as follow,platelet count (BPC) (54× 109/L vs.27.5 × 109/L,P ＜ 0.01),proportion of AML-M5 (57.1％ vs.27.3％,P ＜ 0.01),incidence of CD34+ (28.6％ vs.63.3％,P＜0.01),normal karyotypes (85.7％ vs.28.3％,P＜0.01),cases with particular fusion gene (0 vs.48.3％,P ＜ 0.01),incidence of FLt3-1TD-mutations positive (28.6％ vs.8.3％,P ＜ 0.01),and the differences were significant (P＜0.01).No statistic difference was found in white blood cell(WBC) counts,percentage of blasts in bone marrow,sex,median age and complete remission rate between the two groups (P ＞0.05).The WBC counts (26.9 × 109/L vs.8.1 × 109/L,P =0.013),percentage of blastsin in bone marrow (90％ vs.76％,P=0.014) in the FLT3-ITD mutationg positive patients were clearly higher than those in the FLT3-ITD negative patients.If not associated with FLT3-ITD mutations,mutant NPM1 appears to identify patients with improved response toward treatment.Conclusion It is necessary to detect NPM1 mutation and FLT3-ITD mutation in newly diagnosed AML patients,especially in patients with normal karyotype,which might help to molecular classification and treatment.
