Obesity in children and adolescents has become a public health problem of global attention.Although children obesity has less significant cardiovascular events,many obese children have early vascular lesion and endothelial dysfunction.Therefore,the risk factors of cardiovascular injury should be evaluated and intervented as soon as possible.

OBJECTIVE: To summarize the recent progress and clinical application of percutaneous coronary intervention and to seek the direction of new developments.METHODS: A computerized online database of Pubmed was searched to identify articles published from May 2000 to February 2009 with the key words of "drug eluting stents, peroutaneous coronary intervention, and coronary disease". There were 154 articles were retrieved by computer, by reading tities and Abstract s, 27% literatures were remained after excluding 74 irrespective papers and 53 repetitive studies.RESULTS: An ideal drug-eluting stent (DES) was comprised of a platform, a drug carrier vehicle and a pharmaceutical compound in harmony with each other. With the ongoing development of DES materials and drugs, more effective DES was introduced in the practice. Recently, clinical data on DES encourage the interventional cardiologist to use DES in more challenging coronary lesions, such as chronic total occlusions, complex lesions and multi-vessel lesions. However, the safety and efficacy of DES need further attention. Therefore, novel strategies including bioabsorbable stents, and pro-healing agents coated stents were promising.CONCLUSION: The development of percutaneous coronary intervention is a breakthrough in intervention cardiology that brings great benefit to patients with coronary disease, especially for restenosis and revascularization. Nevertheless, more endeavour will be necessary to create PCI with high efficacy as well as low risk, and safety and effectiveness of PCI in patients with ST-segment evaluation myocardial infraction and stent fracture prevention need further study.

With the obesity epidemic,children and adolescents with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)signifi-cantly increased throughout the world,screening and diagnosis of T2DM in the high - risk population is very important. In addition to lifestyle modification,the recommended optimal pharmacologic treatment of children and adolescents with T2DM is Metformin and Insulin. To reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases,should fully understand the comorbidities and complications of T2DM,and take better assessment and management.

BACKGROUND:Application of mechanical valve and bioprosthetic valve replacement is an effective means for the treatment of end-stage valve disease. However, their clinical application is constrained by multiple factors. Tissue-engineered heart valves with biological activity hold the potential to overcome the defect of the mechanical valves and bioprosthetic valves. Choosing appropriate cells for cellseeding is a significant aspect for the research of tissue-engineered heart valves. A growing number of somatic cells and stem cells have been used for construction of tissue-engineered heart valves, however, not yet achieve the desired result.
OBJECTIVE:To review the studies on seed cells for tissue-engineered heart valves and the cellseeding methods in vitro on the basis of the cellular components of heart valves.
METHODS:First author searched PubMed and Wanfang database with computer for related articles published from January 2000 to December 2012. The keywords were“tissue engineering, heart valves, cel”. Preferred articles concerned seed cells of tissue-engineered heart valves with the relevance and authority. A total of 39 articles published in the prestigious journals were reviewed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Endothelial cells and interstitial cells were mainly valvular cellular components. In the early stage, endothelial cells and fibroblasts were used to construct tissue-engineered heart valves. With deep stem cellresearch, the application of pulsatile bioreactor cultivation mesenchymal stem cells holds a great potential to produce tissue-engineered heart valves.

Objective To comprehensively evaluate the effectiveness of health education interventions on endemic fluorosis for Chinese students and housewives,and to provide a basis for prevention and control of the disease.Methods A computerized literature search was carried out in CBM(Chinese Biomedical Database),CNKI (Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure),Wan-fang,VIP,Pub-Med,Web of Knowledge and EBSCO to collect articles published at home and abroad between 1994-2012 concerning the effectiveness of health education interventions on endemic fluorosis for Chinese students and housewives.The study was a self-controlled intervention study.The quality of literature was evaluated using the standards of Cochrane and EPOC.Meta-analysis was performed to assess the knowledge about fluorosis prevention using Rev-Man 5.0.Homogeneous data(P ＞ 0.05) was analyzed using a fixed effects model,and heterogeneous data (P≤ 0.05) was analyzed using a random effects model.Results A total of 146 Chinese research papers and 192 English research papers were retrieved.By screening,35 Chinese research papers meet the standards.After reading the full text,6 papers were selected.English literature was not found.According to EPOC criteria all the six literatures included were grade B.Because heterogeneity of the literatures was higher,knowledge point was stratify analyzed according to the study subjects.The intervention effect of students was higher than that of the housewives.After the intervention,the fluorosis disease prevention knowledge awareness of schoolchildren and housewives were increased by 28％ and 26％.Conclusions Health education has a good effect in improving the knowledge of fluorosis for Chinese students and housewives.

BACKGROUND:Mesenchymal stem cells are capable of self-renew,a high degree of proliferation,with multi-differentiation potential,low immunogenicity and immunomodulatory properties.Both in vivo and in vitro it is able to regulate allogeneic immune response,to induce immune tolerance.In the solid organ transplantation it is playing an increasingly important role.OBJECTIVE:To summarize the research progress on the immunomodulatory mechanism and application of mesenchymal stem cells in solid organ transplantation.METHODS:An online search of Pubmed was undertaken by using the key words of "Mesenchymal Stem Cells,Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation,Organ Transplantation,Transplantation Immunology,Immunologic Graft Enhancement,Graft vs.Host Disease" in Mesh to identify the relevant articles published in English from January 1994 to October 2009.At the same time,Wanfang database was screened to identify the relevant articles published between January 1994 and October 2009 with the key words of "Mesenchymal Stem Cells,Organ Transplantation,Transplantation Immunology" in Chinese.Inclusive criterion:The articles related to the immunomodulatory properties,transplantation immunology and application of mesenchymal stem calls in the solid organ transplantation were included.Exclusive criterion:The articles with repetitive research or Meta analysis were excluded.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Totally 200 relevant articles were selected and 86 of them met the inclusive criterion.Mesenchymal stem cells exhibit low immunogenicity and immunomodulatory properties,have an indispensable advantage about inducing graft tolerance and repairing tissue in solid organ transplantation.The mechanism of inducting immune tolerance may be related to soluble factors,regulatory T cells,tolerant dendritic cells,bone marrow chimerism,anti-inflammatory and tissue repair,dose and time of injecting MSCs.
