0.05).[Conclusion]BMSCs could be successfully differentiated into endothelial cells in vitro,and the functional genes were stably expressed in BMSCs-derived endothelial cells.They are ideal donor cells of tissue engineering vascularization.

The coexistence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAS) is called overlap syndrome (OS).Compared to single COPD or OSAS patients,OS patients have more severe hypoxemia associated with nocturnal sleep,showing more severe impairment of lung function and pulmonary hypertension,and the prognosis is worse.It is of great clinical significance to improve the understanding of OS and to make the diagnosis and treatment timely of OS patients.Microalbuminuria (MA) is an important indicator of vascular endothelial dysfunction and an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease.It has important reference value for judging the occurrence,development and prognosis of the disease.Therefore,to study the change of microalbuminuria and its correlation with clinical parameters in patients with OS may have important clinical significance on the prognosis of overlap syndrome patients.The changes and clinical significance of microalbuminuria in patients with overlap syndrome are summarized as follows.

Objective: To assess the renal cortical perfusion parameters by the imaging of computed tomography (CT) in patients of essential hypertension (EH) with target organ damage.
Methods: A total of 90 subjects with the entire information including 59 EH patients were studied. The EH patients were divided into 2 groups: EH + target organ damage group,n=30 and EH without target organ damage group,n=29. In addition, there was a Control group,n=31 healthy volunteers. All subjects received 128-slice dual-source CT renal perfusion scanning, the quantitative perfusion of renal cortex blood lfow (BF), blood volume (BV), time to peak (TTP) and the mean transit time (MTT) were examined and compared among different groups.
Results: There were 90/97 (92.8%) participants eligible for perfusion analysis. Compared to Control group, EH without target organ damage group had the similar parameters of BF, BV, MTT and TTP,P>0.05. While EH + target organ damage group had decreased BF (214.6 ± 36.1) ml/(min?100 ml ) than Control group (262.1 ± 26.6) ml/(min?100 ml ),P<0.01, and BV, TTP, MTT were similar to Control group,P>0.05. Compared to EH without target organ damage group, the EH + target organ damage group presented decreased BF (214.6 ±3 6.1) ml/(min?100 ml ) vs (268.9 ± 33.1) ml/(min?100 ml ), P<0.01 and prolonged MTT, TTP,P< 0.05.
Conclusion: CT imaging may evaluate the renal cortical perfusion changes, and especially BF which can relfect the renal perfusion more sensitively than other parameters in EH + target organ damage patients.

Objective: To quantitatively study the incidental extra-cardiac ifndings (ECFs) by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD) in order to better recognize those lesions in clinical practice.
Methods: A total of 1169 suspected CAD patients received CCTA in our hospital from 2011-06 to 2013-03 and 1030 patients were enrolled in this study. There were 589 in-patients, 441 out-patients and 549 patients≥60 years of age,481 patients < 60 years of age. 3 physicians evaluated the incidental ECFs in the full ifeld of view (FOV) in different window level and window width for lung, mediastinum, thorax and upper abdominal areas. Clinical relevance of ECFs were classiifed by corresponding scores. Score 1, the patients with severe lesion need immediate treatment, score 2, the lesion with clinical and prognostic signiifcance and score 3, the ifnding without clinical signiifcance.
Results: There were 197/1030 (19.1%) patients having 224 ECFs and 27 (2.6%) patients having 2 ECFs; 90/1030 (8.7%) patients having 106 signiifcant lesions including 3 (0.3%) of lung cancer and 8 (0.8%) of pulmonary embolism; 107 patients with 118 lesions without signiifcance. ECFs were found in 114/589 (19.4%) in-patients and in 83/441 (18.8%) out-patients, P>0.05; 76/481 (15.8%) of patients < 60 years of age and 121/549 (22.0%) of patients≥60 years,P<0.05.
Conclusion: Unexpected ECFs detection rate was 19.1% in patients undergoing CCTA without further radiation exposure by reconstruction with the full FOV setting, and 8.7% of ECFs had clinical signiifcance. Radiologists should routinely analyze the extra-cardiac organs in CCTA.

Objective: To explore the features of ascending aortic distensibility (AAD) and risk factors in pre-hypertension (PHT) patients. Methods: A total of 206 participants who received retrospective ECG-triggered coronary CTA by physical check-up or by clinically suspected coronary artery disease (CTA) were enrolled. The participants were divided into 2 groups: Control group, the subjects with normal blood pressure,n=85 and Pre-hypertension group,n=121. A 128 slice dual-source CT scanner was used and the image was automatically reconstructed at every 5% absolute phases in entire R-R interval. The beginning of left coronary artery plane was deifned as the reference and 25 mm above the reference plane was deifned as interested region. ADD value was calculated. Results: Compared with Control group, Pre-hypertension group had decreased AAD,P<0.01 and similar normalized cross-sectional area (Ss),P>0.05; ADD value was similar among different gender and blood lipid levels. Correlation analysis presented that AAD was negatively related to age (r=-0.69,P=0.001), systolic blood pressure (r=-0.37,P=0.001), pulse pressure(r=-0.43,P=0.001) and glycosylated hemoglobin (r=-0.43,P<0.05). Age and systolic blood pressure were the independent risk factors for AAD decline (standardized β=-0.66,P=0.001) and (standardized β=-0.44,P=0.001). Conclusion: Without additional contrast media consumption and radiation dosage, retrospective ECG-triggered coronary CTA may detect AAD changes with risk factors at the early stage in pre-hypertension patients which is helpful to distinguish the high risk individuals.

Objective To compare the effect of ultrasound-guided Mammotome minimally invasive operation and traditional surgery in treating benign breast tumor.Methods Eighty patients with benign breast tumor admitted to People's Hospital of Beijing Daxing District from October 2015 to April 2016 were randomly divided into group A and group B.Patients in group A accepted ultrasound-guided Mammotome minimally invasive operation (n =40),while patients in Group B accepted traditional surgery (n =40).Operation time,incision length,blood loss,patient satisfaction,postoperative pain,and the occurrence rates of complications were compared between the two groups.Results All the tumors in two groups were removed.Patients in group A had shorter operation time (10.4 ± 1.0) min,less blood loss (4.1 ± 0.5) ml,smaller length of incision (0.34 ± 0.04) cm (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01);also had less occurrence of complication (P ＜ 0.05);and patients in group A had better patient's satisfaction (95％) (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Ultrasound-guided Mammotome minimally invasive operation is helpful to shorten operation time and incision length,and reduce blood loss,also improve satisfaction.It is valuable for application and popularization in primary hospital.

Aim To investigate the effects and mecha-nism of nuclear factor-κ B inhibitor, PDTC, on global cerebral ischemia reperfusion ( GCIR ) rat hippocam-pus. Methods Forty-eight adult male Sprague-Daw-ley rats were randomly divided into one control group receiving sham operation and three experimental groups all receiving global cerebral ischemia for 20 min. In PDTC 100 mg·kg-1 group ( P100 ) and PDTC 200 mg ·kg-1 group ( P200 ) , PDTC 100 mg · kg-1 or PDTC 200 mg·kg-1 was injected ip one hour before ischemi-a respectively. Spatial learning and memory function of rats were tested using Morris water maze. HE staining was employed to observe pathological changes of hipp-ocampal neurons. Expression of COX2 was measured by Western blot, and the content of PGI2 and TXA2 in
rat hippocampus was detected by enzyme-linked immu-nosorbent assay. Results A significant increase of es-cape latency was observed in GCIR group compared to the sham operation group(P<0.05). PDTC 100 mg· kg-1 and PDTC 200 mg · kg-1 significantly reduced escape latency ( P <0.05 ) and histopathological injury in CA1 region of hippocampus. PDTC 100 mg · kg-1 and PDTC 200 mg · kg-1 also reduced COX2 expres-sion, PGI2 content, TXA2 content and PGI2/TXA2 . Conclusion Pretreatment with PDTC can protect hip-pocampus from GCIR injury through inhibition of COX2 expression and PGI2/TXA2 .

Objective:To investigate the vascular protective mechanism of different levels of herbs through detecting activity of HO-1/CO system in arterial tissues of rats with stagnancy of collateral-Qi in deficiency condition.Methods:Healthy male Wistar rats of cleanness level were randomly divided into control group,stagnancy of collateral-Qi in a deficiency condition group(SCQDC group),Renshen group,Shuangshen group,and Tongxinluo group.The ultrastructure of endothelium cells in the artery was observed.RT-PCR,Western blot,and immunohistochemical approaches were used to detect JNK,c-Jun mRNA and albumen expression in the arterial tissues.Meanwhile,the content of CO in the arterial tissue was also detected.Results:In SCQDC group,the counts of pinocytotic cells and microvili on the free surface of vascular endothelial cells were significantly decreased;most crests of mitochondria fused with membrane,some even disappeared;serious degranulation was observed in the rough surfaced endoplasmic reticulum.Immunohistochemistry showed that the HO-1 positive signals in the arterial histiocyte weakened significantly compared with the control group.The HO-1 expression was increased in the 3 treatment groups.Compared with control group,SCQDC group had decreased HO-1 mRNA and albumen expression(P

Objective To explore the relationship between childhood asthma and pregnant and neonatal risk factors, thus provide evidence for early prevention of childhood asthma. Methods 162 children diagnosed asthma and 213 healthy children in pediatric outpatient and the inpatient services of our hospital who was born and living in Baotou city were retrospectively analyzed. The pregnancy related factors (parity, fever during pregnancy, pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome, gestational diabetes mellitus, history of overdose in early-pregnancy) and the neonatal period related factors (surface defects, asphyxia, rough placenta, birth weight, number of fetus during this pregnancy, gestational age, premature birth, cesarean section) were investigated. The sex and age showed no signiifcance between childhood asthma and control group. Results Eight pregnant and neonatal factors (fever during pregnancy, pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome, history of overdose in early-pregnancy, surface defects, asphyxia, rough placenta, birth weight, premature birth, cesarean section) showed signiifcant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). Multifactor regression analysis found fever during pregnancy (OR=9.43, 95%CI:3.08~28.82), rough placenta (OR=2.15, 95%CI:1.29~3.59), premature birth (OR=5.16, 95%CI:1.53~17.39) and cesarean section (OR=4.05, 95%CI:2.40~6.86)are independent risk factors for childhood asthma. Conclusions Fever during pregnancy, abnormal placenta;premature birth and cesarean section are likely risk factors of childhood asthma.

Objective To investigate the effects of fentanyl and remifentanil on the viability of human adenocarcinoma cell line A549.Methods Human adenocarcinoma A549 cells cultured in logarithmic growth phase were seeded in 75 ml culture bottles or 96-well plates.After being cultured for 24 h,the cells were randomly divided into 9 groups (n =30 each):4 fentanyl groups (groups F1-4 ),4 remifentanil groups (groups RF1-4 ) and control group (group C).Groups F1-4 were exposed to fentanyl with the final concentrations of 0.5,5.0,50.0 and 500.0 ng/ml respectively.Groups RF1-4 were exposed to remifentanil with the final concentrations of 0.5,5.0,50.0 and 500.0 ng/ml respectively.The viability of the cells was determined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium assay after being incubated for 24,48 and 72 h.The cell cycle progression and apoptosis were determined by flow cytometry after being incubated for 24 h.Results Compared with group C,the viability of A549 cells were gradually decreased at 72 h of incubation,the proportion of the cells in S phase was gradually decreased at 24 h of incubation,and the proportion of the cells in G2/M phase and apoptotic rate were gradually increased in groups F2-4 and in groups RF2-4 ( P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Fentanyl and remifentanil with the final concentration ≥5 ng/ml can inhibit the viability of human adenocarcinoma cell line A549 in a dose-independent manner by inducing cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase.
