Objective To assess the regional left ventricular (LV) rotation motion in the patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) with velocity vector imaging (VVI).Methods This study included 38 patients with isolated MS (mild,moderate and severe) and 55 healthy control subjects.Short-axis parasternal views at the basal and apical level of LV were taken.Peak value of rotation angle and rotation velocity,as well as time to peak value were measured by VVI workplace offline respectively.Results ①In the healthy control subjects LV rotates clockwisely at the base and counterclockwisely at the apex,the same as the patients with MS.② In th patients with MS,rotaion angle and rotation velocity were significantly reduced at the apical level(P ＜0.001),rotation velocity were significantly reduced at some segments of basal level (anterior,lateral,septal) (P ＜ 0.05).③Compared with the healthy control,the difference of time to peak roation angle between base and apex was significantly longer in patients with MS (P ＜0.05).④ There were no significant differences among mild,moderate and severe MS (P ＞0.05).Conclusions The patients with MS may suffer from systolic dysfunctin even in the early stage identified by the alteration of LV rotation motion,which is independent of the hemodynamic severity of MS.

· AlM:To investigate the effect of compound anisodine on fundus blood circulation after vitrectomy with face-down position.
· METHODS: Sixty patients ( 60 eyes ) with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment received vitrectomy with silicone oil tamponade operation, who were randomized divided into treatment group ( 30 eyes ) and control group ( 30 eyes ) .The patients in the treatment group received the subcutaneously injection of compound anisodine hydrobromide by the superficial temporal artery once daily for 14d since postoperative first day.Retinal microcirculation blood flow parameters were recorded with Heidelberg retinal flowmeter postoperative 1d, 1 and 2wk, and were compared between two groups.
·RESULTS: The blood flow parameters ( Vol, Flw, Vel) of control group postoperative 1 and 2wk were significantly less than those postoperative 1d.Otherwise the parameters of treatment postoperative 1 and 2wk were significantly more than those postoperative 1d. The parameters between two groups were significant different ( P<0.01) .
· CONCLUSlON: Facing down after vitrectomy with
silicone oil tamponade may reduce retinal blood supply, consequently lead to retinal ischemia; compound anisodine can effectively improve the retinal and choroidal microcirculation after vitrectomy with face-down posture, reduce retinal ischemia, and enhance the visual function.

The B.subtilis ywtD gene,encoding a ?-polyglutamic acid(?-PGA)depolymerase,was amplified from the genome of B.subtilis NX-2 by PCR.The comparability between the cloned ywtD gene sequence to the reported sequence is high to 99.0%.Only one of the substituted nucleotide base caused the change to the amino acid sequence.The recombinant plasmid pET-15b-ywtD was then transformed into E.coli Rosetta(DE3)and the ywtD gene product could be expressed with the induction of 0.5mmol/L IPTG.The YwtD protein exhibited a remarkable activity in ?-polyglutamic acid degradation.The molecular weight of ?-PGA could be reduced from 700kDa to 20kDa after 72h through the enzymatic hydrolysis and consequently trended to be constant.

ObjectiveTo investigate left ventricular (LV) radial dyssynchrony and LV rotational change of isolated complete left bundle branch block (CLBBB) and CLBBB with heart failure (HF).Methods Twenty-six isolated CLBBB patients,twenty-four CLBBB patients with HF and twenty healthy controls were studied.Two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (2D-STI) was applied to short-axis views to calculate LV radial dyssynchrony and LV rotational and twist degree and time to peak rotational and twist degree.ResultsLV radial dyssynchrony and LV rotation and twist degree were intermediately damaged in isolated CLBBB patients and was significantly damaged in CLBBB patients with HF,compared with healthy controls.ConclusionsFor isolated CLBBB patients,even if LV ejection fraction was in the normal range,another parameters of cardiac mechanic had changed and 2DSTI could be used to evaluate these alterations.

Objective To learn the cognitive status for newborns medical pain in medical workers of neonatal intensive care unit of children′s hospitals and provide clinical basis for optimizing neonatal pain management. Methods Totally 320 medical staff in neonatal intensive care units of six children′s hospital in Wuhan, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Nanjing, Zhejiang, Chongqing were investigated using medical pain management survey questionnaires by means of convenience sampling method. Results The knowledge on neonatal pain were at quite high level, accuracy rate was (80.5 ± 18.1)%;but on pain feel, pain relief rate and anodyne-use, the accuracy rate was relatively low; chest drainage, lumbar puncture and PICC placement were generally considered to cause severe pain with scores of 8.03±2.20, 7.17±2.17, 7.09 ± 2.00, respectively. Medical staff with different degrees, having children or not, different titles and with different years of working at NICU had impact on neonatal pain assessment on heel prick and venipuncture among full-term newborns. The difference was statistically significant (χ2=6.208-23.314, P<0.05). Conclusions Neonatal pain management is gradually emphasized by clinical medical staff, but there exist a certain bias on the perception and assessment of pain. So, it needs to strengthen pain-related knowledge training on health care for newborns to prevent and reduce neonatal pain, improving neonatal pain management.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the curative efficacy of granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) as an adjunctive therapy for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). METHODS: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of GM-CSF in the treatment of AML were retrieved from PubMed,EMBase,Cochrane Library,CBMdisc and CNKI database by computer as well as from the leukemia-related journals manually for a quality evaluation of the methodology and Meta analysis using RevMan5.0 software. RESULTS: A total of 10 RCTs were included,of which,3 RCTs were graded as A,5 as B and 2 as C. The results demonstrated that there were no significant differences of indexes among groups as complete remission (CR) rate,relapse rate,infection rate and length of hospital stay,etc. CONCLUSION: The available clinical research results showed that GM-CSF adjunctive therapy could neither increase CR rate,nor decrease the relapse rate,infection rate or length of hospital stay.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of FK506-based dual therapy and CsA-based triple therapy for immunosuppression after liver transplantation. METHODS: The literature about the randomized controlled trials (RCT) on FK506 and CsA for immunosuppression after liver transplantation was retrieved for analysis using RevMan 5.0 software. RESULTS: A total of 7 RCTs were included; 3 were considered as high quality of RCT, 4 as moderate quality. The results of Meta-analysis of FK506-based dual therapy indicated the patients’ survival rate (RR=1.06, 95%CI=0.77～1.45,P=0.72), grafts’ survival rate (RR=0.99, 95%CI=0.76～1.29,P=0.92), infection rate(RR=0.98, 95%CI=0.60～1.58,P=0.93)and incidence of neurotoxicity (RR=0.59, 95%CI=0.32～1.07,P=0.08)was not significantly different. The incidence of acute rejection in CsA group was lower than in FK506 group (RR=1.57, 95%CI=1.23～2.01,P=0.000 3). CONCLUSION: The curative efficacy of FK506 group is not different from that of CsA group in respect of rate of patient/graft, infection but increase the incidence of acute rejection. Because CsA can increase incidence of neurotoxicity, it is suggestion to treat patients of nervous systerm disease with FK506.
