OBJECTIVETo identify the Cynomorii Herba and its analogues species using DNA barcoding technique.

METHODTotal genomic DNA extracted from all materials using the DNA extraction kit. The internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) regions were amplified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and purified PCR products were sequenced bi-directionally. Sequence assembly and consensus sequence generation were performed using the CodonCode Aligner 3.7.1. The Kimura 2-Parameter (K2P) distances and GC content were computed using MEGA 5. 0. Species identification analyses were conducted through the species identification system for traditional Chinese medicine and neighbor-joining (NJ) trees.

RESULTThe ITS2 sequence lengths of Cynomorii Herba were 229 bp. The average intra-specific genetic distances of Cynomorii Herba were 0.003. The average inter-specific genetic distances between Cynomorii Herba and its adulterants species were 0.760. The results showed that the minimum inter-specific divergence is larger than the maximum intra-specific divergence. The species identification system for traditional Chinese medicine and NJ trees results indicated that Cynomorii Herba and its adulterants species can be easily identification.

CONCLUSIONThe ITS2 region is an efficient barcode for identification of Cynomorii Herba, which provide a new technique to ensure clinical safety in utilization of traditional Chinese medicine.

Fifty-eight samples belonging to 7 species of Arisaematis Rhizoma and its adulterants were collected. The ITS2 locus was employed as a DNA barcode and amplified, sequenced and assembled for all of the collected samples. Then, ITS2 sequences have been annotated using HMM-based method. The intra- and inter-specific variations were calculated and NJ tree was constructed using MEGA 6.0 software. The results showed that inter-specific K2P distances were significantly larger than intra-specific distances for all of the three origin species of Arisaematis Rhizoma. Furthermore, three origin species, Arisaema amurense, A. erubescens and A. heterophyllum, can be respectively formed to be a single branch with high bootstrap values. It is concluded that ITS2 can be used to correctly identify Arisaematis Rhizoma from its adulterants and the application of ITS2 in the identification of traditional Chinese medicine has an important prospective.

Objective To investigate the left ventricular (LV) torsion parameters of type B WolffParkinson-White syndrome (B-WPW) and to explore alternation of the left ventricular motion pattern in patients with B-WPW.Methods Thirty-eight patients with B-WPW were studied.And 40 volunteers were selected as control.Two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (2D-STI) was used to acquire left ventricular torsion parameters,including peak value and time to peak value of LV twist,LV apex rotation,and LV base rotation.Apical-basal rotation delay (RDA-B) was calculated.Biplane Simpson method was used to measure LV end-diastolic volume (LVEDV),end-systolic volume (LVESV) and ejection fraction (LVEF).All above parameters were measured in patients with B-WPW before (B-WPW-B group) and after (B-WPW-A group) radiofrequency catheter ablation and in control group.The QRS width of lead Ⅱ was recorded,and the relationships between all above parameters with the RDA-B or QRS width were analyzed.Results Compared with the contrd group,in patients with B-WPW,the peak value of LV apex rotation (RotA),LV base rotation (RotB) and LV twist (TwistLV) were lower(LV base was more obvious than LV apex)(P ＜0.05),the time to RotB (TTPB) was shorter (P =0.004),RDAB was longer(P =0.002),the left ventricular enlarged and the QRS prolonged (P =0.000).After radiofrequency catheter ablation,the left ventricular torsion parameters in patients with B-WPW recovered significantly(P ＜0.05),but still lower than those in the control group(P ＜0.05).Conclusions The left ventricular motion pattern of patients with B-WPW alters,including the changes of peak value and time to peak value in LV apex rotation,LV base rotation and LV twist,as well as LV myocardium dyssynchrony.The motion pattern of LV in patients with B-WPW is improved in acute stage after radiofrequency catheter ablation but not yet recover totally.

Objective To evaluate the clinical outcome of external bracket fixation in the treat- ment of complex tibia diaphysis fracture involving intra-articular fractures.Methods Forty-two cases of complex tibia diaphysis fracture with proximal and distal intra-articular fractures treated surgically in our hospital from January 1999 to January 2004 were analyzed.The complex tibia diaphysis fractures were categorized according to the AO classification as type C2 (multiple segments fracture) and type C3 (ir- regular fracture),proximal and distal intra-articular fractures in 23 and 19 cases,respectively.Definite operation was done within one week.Twenty-two cases were treated with simple external fixator,and 20 cases treated with screws and external fixator.Results All the 42 cases were followed-up regularly. According to AO evaluation of the knee and ankle joint movement,83% (35/42 cases) of the cases gained satisfactory functional outcome,14% (6/42 cases) had quite satisfactory results and 2% (1/42 case) had unsatisfactory functional outcome.Conclusion External bracket fixation can obtain outcome of relative length of the tibia and fibula,tube structure reconstruction,smoothness of the articular surface and the parallel and symmetric relation of knees and ankles for complex tibia diaphysis fracture with proxi- mal and distal intra-articular fracture.The arthritis resulting in pain in movement and restriction of func- tion is considered to be the most important factor affecting the joint function.Early functional exercise is important for best recovery of knee and ankle function.

In this study, the COI barcode was used to identify the Scolopendra medicinal materials and its adulterants in order to provide a new method for the identification of Scolopendra. Genomic DNA was extracted from the experimental samples. The COI sequences were amplified and sequenced bi-directionally. Sequence alignment and NJ tree construction was carried out by MEGA6.0 software. The results showed that the COI sequences can be obtained from all experimental samples. The average inter-specific K2P distance of Scolopendra was 0.222 and the minimum inter-specific distance was 0.190. All the Scolopendra subspinipes mutilans medicinal samples clustered into a clade in the NJ tree and can be distinguished from its adulterants. In a conclusion, COI can be used to correctly identify Scolopendra medicinal materials, and it will be a potential DNA barcode for identifying other animal medicinal materials.

Objective To evaluate left ventricular(LV)myocardial contraction patterns and function when pacing in different right ventricular(RV)sites and discuss echocardiogarphic method to evaluate physiologcal pacing mode.Methods This study included 26 patients with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia without organic heart disease.Four pacing modes including right atrium pacing(AAI),RV apex pacing(VVI-RVA),RV septal pacing(VVI-IVS)and RV outflow tract pacing(VVI-RVOT)were performed on the patients in a random order after succussful radiofrequency ablation.The parameters measured in each pacing mode included(1)LV systolic function parameters:LV twist angle(Twist),aortic systolic velocity-time integral(VTIAo)and LV global strain(Gε)；(2)LV contracting pattern:segmental peak systolic strain(Sε),the time to peak value(TPε),and the distribution of segmental Sε,TPε in each layer or wall.The relationship between Sε,TPε of each wall was analyzed.[Results]Pacing from RV sites showed lower Twist,VTIAO and Gε than AAI mode.Gε demonstrated significant difference in three RV sites pacing mode(VVI-RVOT＞VVI-IVS＞VVI-RVA,P＜0.05).Compared with the AAI mode,the distribution of segmental Sε,TPε in the each layer or wall alerted significantly in three RV sites pacing mode,especially in VV1-RVA.The distribution pattern was similar in VVI-RVOT and VVI-IVS.Furthermore,the wall Sε collated negtively with wall TPε(r =-0.51,P＜0.001).[Conclusions]Compared with AAI mode,RV pacing,especially the VVI-RVA induced the alternation of LV contraction patterns and reduction of systolic function.Longitudinal strain parameters can be used to assess the myocardial contraction patterns and function in different pacing mode.

Objective To compare the antimierobial resistance of the gram-negative isolates from blood stream between Beijing and Hong Kong patients.Methods Non duplicate blood stream isolates were collected between 1998 and 2003 from Peking U- nion Medical College Hospital(n=530)and Hong Kong Prince of Wales Hospital(n=2913).Disk diffusion method and broth microdilution(MB)method were used to determine the antimierobial susceptibility of these strains to 13 antimicrobial a- gents including imipenem,ceftazidime,cefepime,etc.Results The resistance rates of E.coli to amikaein,ceftazidime and cefepime were 0.6%-5.0% and 7.5%-23.5%,and to gentamicin,cefuroxime,ciprofloxacin and cefuroxime were 12.6%- 28.4% and 29.4%-68.4% in Hong Kong isolates(n=1471)and Beijing isolates(n=213),respectively.The resistance rates of Klebsiella spp.to piperacillin-tazobactam and ceftazidime were 3.3%-11.3% and 4.3%-17.7%,and to amikacin, gentamicin,cefotaxime and ceftriaxone were 1.5%-10.1% and 5.8%-27.1% in Hong Kong isolates(n=586)and Beijing i- solates(n=70),respectively.The strains above and the ECS group of bacteria in Hong Kong(consisting of Enterobacter spp.,Citrobacter spp.,and Serratia spp.,n=333)were all susceptible to imipenem and meropenem,but 4.6%(n=65)of the ECS group bacteria in Beijing were resistant.About 8.8% and 14% of ECS group isolates were resistant to cefepime.Such isolates resistant to the other?-lactams ranged from 28.4% to 96%.In Hong Kong,Salmonella typhi remained susceptible to most of the antimierobial agents tested,but in Beijing,the resistance rates to ampicillin and piperacillin were from 9.1% to 18.2%.In Hong Kong,The resistance rates of Acinetobacter spp.and P.aeruginosa to imipenem and meropenem were lower than 10%,but in Beijing their resistance rates to imipenem were 13.6%-15.3% and 8.8%-30.8%,respectively.Conclusions The resistance rates of gram-negative bacteria isolated from blood stream in Beijing to most antimicrobial agents were higher than the corresponding rates in Hong Kong.This result will be useful for empirical therapy of local bacteremia.
