Objective To assess the diagnostic value of chronotropic index in identifying coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods One hundred and sixty two patients with suspected CAD were referred for a routine treadmill exercise electrocardiogram and subsequently underwent selective coronary angiography within 3 weeks. The magnitude of ST segment depression and chronotropic index were measured by a computerized ECG system. CAD was defined by coronary angiography. Results In detecting CAD, the sensitivity was 70. 1% versus 60.9% (P< 0.05) ,the specificity was 84.0% versus 73.3% (P<0.05), and the accuracy was 76.5% versus 66.7% (P< 0.05) by chronotropic index and standard electrocardiographic test criteria. The value of Kappa statistic for chrono-tropic index consistency in our experiment was 0.534(>0.4). The number of diseased vessels was correlated with the mean value of chronotropic index. The chronotropic index decreased from 0.88±0.09 in patients without coro-nary disease to 0.68±0.06 in those with 3 vessels involved (P<0.01). A more closed relationship was found be-tween chronotropic index and lesion in the fight coronary artery. Conclusions Chronotropic index is possibly a valu-able positive index for the diagnosis of CAD. The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of chronotropic index are signif-icandy higher than those of standard electrocardiographic test criteria in identifying CAD.

Objective To investigate the neurosurgery nurses turnover intention and the psychological contract status to analyze the relationship between them. Methods The Departure Will Scale and Questionnaire of Psychological Contract were used to survey 128 neurosurgery nurses from seven general hospitals in Lishui city. Results Of neurosurgery nurses turnover intention scale was (2.24±0.71) points, whose leaving intend was stronger;Psychological contract items was (4.17±0.67) points, which organization responsibility score wasbelow employees responsibility; Hierarchical regression analysis showed that the psychological contract in the organization responsibility (organization specification responsibility, organization, personal responsibility and organizational development responsibility) could predict neurosurgery nurses′ willingness to leave, which could be able to explain their willingness to leave 13.5%of the variation. Conclusions Neurosurgery nurses′willingness to leave is strong, and psychological contract is an important factors affecting the will of their departure.

Objective To develop real-time quantitative PCR method for measuring the amount of fetal DNA in maternal plasma and the changing patterns of fetal and maternal DNA with the pregnant progress. Methods Fifty-eight women were recruited at 7~42 weeks of gestation with singleton pregnancy determined by ultrasound scan. QIAGEN DNA kits was used to extract fetal DNA from maternal plasma. Fluorescent quantitative PCR(FQ-PCR) were applied to determine the concentration of ?-actin and SRY gene in extracted DNA. Results Thirty-seven male fetus were all identified among the 58 pregnant women (100%) and no Y signal was detected in the other 21 pregnancies with female foetus. The median level of fetal DNA in those pregnancies with male foetus was 9.08 copies/ml (3.5~12.8) in early pregnancy,45.41 copies/ml (14.38~76.5) in mid-pregnancy and 300.95 copies/ml (84~840) in late pregnancy. Conclusions The concentration of fetal DNA increases with the progress of pregnancy. Maternal plasma may be valuable in noninvasive prenatal diagnosis.
