Objective To investigate the effects of sodium tanshinone ⅡA injection on myocardial enzymes and heart function of patients with acute myocardial infarction, and to explore its therapeutic mechanism. Methods A total of 217 patients with acute myocardial infarction in Taihe Hospital emergency department were randomly divided into control group (n=110) and the Tanshinone group (n=107). The control group was treated by thrombolysis, vascular dilation, antihypertension, anti-shock and other conventional treatment. On the basis of control group treatment, Tanshinone group added the intravenous injection 20mg sodium tanshinone injection. The ELISA was used to test serum creatine kinase (CKMB), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA) and cardiac troponin I (CTNI) and other enzymes indexes before and after treatment. The heart function were assessed by measuring the left ventricular patient of maximum rising/ falling rate (± LVdp/dtmax),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVDD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),systolic blood pressure (SP), diastolic blood pressure (DP), pulse pressure (PP ) and heart rate (HR) and other indicators. Results After treatment, the CK-MB (10.76 ± 1.02 mmol/L vs. 15.17 ± 1.21 mmol/L, t=3.724), CTNI (0.11 ± 0.02 ng/ml vs.1.51 ± 0.05 ng/ml, t=2.570), MDA (4.54 ± 0.23 nmol/ml vs. 9.98 ± 1.37 nmol/ml, t=5.035) in the Tanshinone group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The SOD (452.27 ± 21.56 U/L vs. 209.50 ± 15.43 U/L, t=3.935), LVDD (50.74 ± 5.36 mm vs. 44.91 ± 5.31 mm, t=2.454) and LVEF (4.59% ± 0.17% vs. 3.64% ± 0.11%, t=4.052) in the Tanshinone group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The heart function of +dp/dtmax (3742 ± 162 mmHg/s vs. 3948 ± 193 mmHg/s, t=3.731), -dp/dtmax (3512 ± 135 vs. 3847 ± 181, t=3.025), PP (30.5 ± 5.3 mmHg vs. 35.8 ± 5.1 mmHg, t=2.902), DP (99.2 ± 8.8 mmHg vs. 117.3 ± 10.8 mmHg, t=4.079) in the Tanshinone group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The total effective rate was 98.14% (105/107), the control group was 87.2%(96/110), and there was significant difference between the 2 groups (χ2=10.417, P<0.05). Conclusions The Tanshinone ⅡA sodium injection can improve myocardial enzymes and heart function of patients with acute myocardial infarction, which refered to its protective effect on acute myocardial infarction.

Objective To explore the cognitive status of community-dwelling older adults with subjective memory complaints (SMC).Methods A total of 262 older adults with SMC were included based on convenience sampling.Face-to-face interview was conducted for demographic information collection and cognitive assessment.Statistical analyses Were undertaken using SPSS version 19.0.Results The participants with SMC had a low level of general cognitive function,with a mean score of 22.18±4.21 on the MoCA; the two cognitive domains of abstraction' and deIayed memory had the lowest scores,with an average score of 0.85±0.82 and 2.91± 1.50 respectively,and the average scoring rate lower than 60.00％.About 54.20％ of the older adults with SMC presented with cognitive impairment.The scores ofabstraction were low in the participants with and without cognitive impairment.In addition,the scores of visuospatial/executive function, language and delayed memory were low in the participants with cognitive impairment.The cognitive impairment of persons with SMC may be associated with age and marital status.The people over the age of 70 years and widowed ones are more likely to suffer from cognitive dysfunction.Conclusion The older adults with SMC have a low level of general cognitive function,and cognitive imPairment detection rate is higher.Advanced age and widowhood are important factors affecting their cognitive function.

OBJECTIVEThis research aimed to analyze the three-dimensional position of mandibular canal (MC) and man of MC and its relationship with the surrounding structures dibular morphology of normal young males and females by using data from cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), as well as to provide an anatomical basis for clinical surgery of the mandible.

METHODSNormal occlusion and CBCT scans of 29 normal young people were conducted. InVivo 5 software was used to reconstruct the mandible, anchor the points, and measure the jaw shape and three-dimensional course of MC. All measurements were analyzed with SSPS 17.0 software.

RESULTSThe MC lingual bone cortex was thinner than the MC buccal bone cortex, and the distance of the MC to the buccal bone cortex gradually increased. However, the distance of the MC to the tongue bone cortex and alveolar crest gradually decreased from proximal to distal. In addition, the distance of the MC to the mandibular lower margin was minimal at the first molar and reached the maximum at the second premolar. No significant difference was observed among the heights, widths, and thicknesses of the left and right sides of the cortical bone of the mandibular body cross sections. From the midline to the farthest point, the height and lower one-third thickness of the lingual cortical bone of the mandibular body cross sections gradually decreased, whereas the width of the upper cross section and upper one-third thickness of the buccal cortical bone gradually increased. Significant difference was observed in some measured values.

CONCLUSIONAfter MC enter into the mandibular foramen, it moved away from the lingual to the buccal bone but gradually returned to the lingual bone; its general course is closer to the lingual bone. The mandibles of males are thicker than those of females. CBCT can accurately display the course of MC and its relationship with the surrounding structures.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of everyday memory of adults with subjective memory complaints (SMC),and probe into the correlation between everyday memory function and life quality.Methods Through convenience sampling,150 adults with SMC were face-to-face interviewed by an investigator,with demographic characteristics collected,and the cognition function,everyday memory function and life quality were also assessed during the interview.Results Among the 150 adults with SMC,the impairment rate of everyday memory function reached 96％,and the median score of RBMT-II was 16.00 (interquartile range 6.00),indicating a low level of everyday memory function,with the Name andDelayed recall Story items having lower scores.All participants were divided into two groups according to cognitive status,with 67 (44.70％) adults having normal cognitive function and 83 (55.30％) impaired cognitive function.After comparison,significant differences were found in the total score of RBMT-II and scores ofFaces recognition andDelayed recall Story between the two groups (P＜0.05).In all dimensions of SF-36,the median score of general health dimension for the 150 adults was 55.00 (inter-quartile range 31.25).The Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that the scores of several dimensions in RBMT-II were positively correlated with the scores of several dimensions in SF-36 (P＜0.05).Conclusion Everyday memory function of people with SMC was positively CorTelated with their life quality.

Objective To investigate the expression and signficance of secretory phospholipase A2(sPLA2>) in gastric adenocareinoma. Methods Sixty-five samples of gastric adenocarcinoma (11 with high differentiation, 10 with median differentiation and 44 with low differentiation) and 11 samples of normal gastric mucosa had been obtained from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Jilin University from January 2006 to April 2007. Fifty samples of gastric adenocarcinoma were found with lymph node metastasis. The expression of sPLA2> in gastric adenocarcinoma and normal gastric mucosa was detected. The relationship between sPLA2> and the differentiation of gastric adenoearcinoma, lymph node metastasis and helicobacter pylori infection was detected. All the data were processed with chi-square test or Spearman rank correlation. Results The positive rates of the sPLA2> expression in normal gastric mucosa and gastric adenocarcinoma were 36% (4/11) and 78% (51/65). The positive rates of sPLA2> expression in low, median and high differentiated gastric adenocarcinoma were 84% (37/44), 70% (7/10) and 64% (7/11), respectively. The expression of sPLA2> was positively correlated with the malignancy of gastric adenocarcinoma (r =0.272, P <0.05). The positive rates of sPLA2> expression in gastric adenocarcinoma with and without lymph node metastasis were 88% (44/50) and 47% (7/15), respectively. The expression of sPLA2> was correlated with lymph node metastasis (X2 = 9. 347, P < 0.05). The positive rates of sPLA2> expression in gastric adenocarcinoma with and without helicobacter pylori infection were 79% (38/48) and 76% (13/17), respectively. The expression of sPLA2> was not correlated with helicobacter pylori infection (X2 = 0. 000, P > 0.05). Conclusions The activation of sPLA2> gene may be correlated with the genesis of gastric adenocarcinoma. sPLA2> may influence the invasion of gastric adenocarcinoma, and can be used as an indicator in predicting poor prognosis.

Objective To observe the effect of elbow support on muscle activity and subjective feelings of comfort during typing.Methods Ten college students voluntarily participated in this experiment.They typed the same text using elbow supports of five different heights.The distance between their elbows and the desk was supported at 3 cm below,0 cm,and-3 cm and-6 cm above the desk.There was also an unsupported condition.Myoelectric readings were recorded from the right splenius,trapezius,biceps,extensor carpi radialis,flexor digitorum superficialis,flexor carpi radialis,and extensor digitorum muscles.Perceptions of comfort of the neck,shoulder,hand and forearm,and hand using the different supports were surveyed using a questionnaire.Results One way ANOVA shows that the height of the elbow significantly affects the activity of the trapezius,the extensor carpi radialis and the extensor digitorum muscles.Trapezius muscle activity was higher with 3 cm high elbow support than without support,and the value was smaller when using-6 cm elbow support.The activity of the carpi radialis longus extensor was least when using-6 cm and-3 cm elbow support,and greatest with 3 cm support.Extensor digitorum activity was least when using-3 cm high elbow support and again greatest with 3 cm support.The different elbow support heights had no significant relationship with comfort perceptions for any body part.Conclusion The height of elbow support can change the average myoelectric signals from muscles during typing,but there is no significant difference in the typist's perception of comfort.This could be due to a change of typing position and neuromuscular motion control mode in response to the height of elbow support.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the diagnosis value of the procalcitonin(PCT) test in the lower respiratory tract infection(LRTI),and to provide the application of PCT in the bacterial infectious disease.METHODS Procalcitonin concentrations were measured using the quantitative immunofluorescence test in 93 patients and the results were compared with the levels of C-reactive protein(CRP) and white blood cell count(WBC).Samples were collected and divided into 2 groups,one including 63 cases(bacterial infected group) the other including 30 cases(non-bacterial infected group) corresponding to their clinical diagnosis(temperature,heart rate,bacteremia culture,CRP,WBC count).RESULTS The levels of PCT in bacterial infected group were significantly higher than in non-bacterial infected group(P

Objective To investigate the clinical value of endoscopy for chronic diarrhea in infants and safety of gastroscopy replacing colonoscopy.Methods According to the Nelson chronic diarrhea definition,data of 52 hospitalized infants under 1 year from March 2006 to April 2014,who underwent colonoscopy because of diarrhea lasting for more than 2 weeks and achieving no improvement after series of treatments,or diarrhea suspected with severe milk protein allergy were collected.Endoscopy and mucosal biopsy were performed under intravenous anesthesia.Results A total of 49 cases (94.2%)were found abnormal under endoscopy.Lymphocytes,plasma cells and a little eosinophils were found in lamina propria in 26 cases,20-100 eosinophils/HPF were found in lamina propria in 21 patients,who were diagnosed as eosinophilic colitis.The 21 patients came back for open food challenge test 4 weeks later,16 cases were positive,who were diagnosed as milk protein allergy.Two infants with Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis respectively were treated with mesalazine and prednisone,but symptoms repeated.No complication was observed during endoscopy.Conclusion The etiology of infant chronic diarrhea is complex,except for peptic infections and lactose intolerance ,eosinophilic colitis may be the major cause.Ulcerative colitis and Crohn disease are rare in infants,but cannot be ignored .Endoscopy and mucosal biopsy are important in di-agnosis and treatment.Gastroscopy instead of colonoscopy is safe and effective.

The aim of the present study was to explore the prevalence characteristics of brucellosis in Hainan by investigating the biological characteristics and clinical type of pathogenic bacteria isolated from the blood of a patient infected by infective endocarditis.Bacteriological experiments were conducted according to the standard identification methods of Brucella including morphology,cultural characters,biochemistry characters,serological test and phage test,etc.At the same time,systematic analysis on the information about epidemiology,clinical manifestation and laboratory data of the patient was carried on.The Brucella melitensis was identified as Brucella melitensis biotype 2 and was significantly different from the Brucella melitensis biotypes 1 and 3 isolated in China reported in recent years.The urease test result of Brucella melitensis was variable and there is no strong positive result reported except the isolates in Hainan.As Brucellosis cause by Brucella melitensis biotype 2 was firstly reported in Hainan Province,great importance should be attached to its point-like prevalence.
