OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of preoperative use of high-dose simvastatin on the pulmonary artery pres-sure in congenital heart disease with left-to-right shunt. METHODS:86 patients with left-to-right shunt congenital heart disease who were planned to implement interventional occlusion therapy were randomly divided into control group(43 cases)and observa-tion group(43 cases). Patients in both groups were given digitalis,diuretics,anticoagulants and other basic treatments;On this basis, control group received Sildenafil citrate tablet,25 mg,3 times a day,orally given 1 h before a meal;observation group received Simvastatin tablet 80 mg,once every evening,orally. The treatment course for both groups was 7 d. Mean pulmonary hypertension (mPAP),N terminal prohormone brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP),arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2),arterial oxygen ten-sion(PaO2),pulmonary blood circulation ratio(Qq/Qs),pulmonary pressure variation(Rp/Rs),pulmonary vascular resistance in-dex(PVRi)before and after treatment in 2 groups were observed,and related indicators of liver functions [alanine aminotransfer-ase (ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST)] and myocardial enzymes [lactate dehydrogenase (LDH),creatine kinase MB(CK-MB)] were detected. The incidence of adverse reactions were deteted. RESULTS:Before treatment,there were no significant differ-ences in mPAP,NT-proBNP,SaO2,PaO2,Qq/Qs,Rp/Rs,PVRi,ALT,AST,LDH and CKMB levels in 2 groups(P>0.05). Af-ter treatment,mPAP,NT-proBNP,Rp/Rs and PVRi levels were significantly lower than before,SaO2,PaO2,and Qq/Qs levels were significantly higher than before and Qq/Qs level in observation group was higher than these in control group.The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). There was 1 patient showed severe liver injury in observation group and exited the test;the other 85 patients showed no obvious adverse reactions,with successful surgery and good prognosis. CONCLUSIONS:The preoper-ative use of high-dose simvastatin shows obvious effect on controlling mean pulmonary hypertension,reducing mPAP,NT-proB-NP,Rp/Rs and PVRi levels and increasing SaO2,PaO2,and Qq/Qs levels before operation,with good safety.

Oral tuberculosis is one of oral infectious diseases and there are some difficulties in its diagnosis.This article describes a case of oral gingival tuberculosis for that the diagnosis had not been confirmed by biopsy.Local injection with streptomycin was undertaken.1 month after treatment the gingival lesion was improved.

Objective To compare and analyze the surgical and non-surgical treatment results of hypertensive cerebrat hemorrhage.Methods 29 vases of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage patients are randomly divided into two groups:13 cases were treated by surgical treatment,and 16 cases were treated by medicine treatment.Results In surgical group,dead 3 cases,plant survival 5 eases,death disablity rate is 62%;and in non-surgical group:dead 1 case,plant survival 5 eases,death disablity rate is 44%.Conclusion There is no significant difierence between surgical and non-surgical treatment of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.It should be thought more to use surgical treatment on hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.
