Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2012;(23):3521-3522
Objective To investigate the evaluation of serum cystatin C and treating efficacy of enalapril for contrast induced nephropathy after percutaneous coronary.intervention.Methods 86 patients who need coronary angiography or coronary stents implantation by skin were divided into observation group(43 cases)and control group(43 cases)randomly.The fasting venous blood was extracted and in which Cys-C and Scr were tested.All the patients were given water therapy,and enalapril was added in observation group.Diversification of concentration of Cys-C and Scr and efficacy of enalapril were recorded.Results There was no difference of Cys-C and Scr in serum and eGFR before and after operation(all P>0.05),and the concentration of BUN was(3.96±0.89)mmol/L,which was lower after operation(P<0.05),and the rate of CIN incidence was 2.33 %(1 case).The concentration of Cys-C in serum was(18.4±0.58)mg/L,which was significantly higher than preoperation(P<0.05),and there was no significant difference of Scr,eGFR and BUN before and after operation(P>0.05),and the rate of CIN incidence was 11.63%(5 cases).Conclusion Cys-C was more sensitive in early detection for contrast induced nephropathy and more convenient.The rate of CIN incidence could be decreased by using enalapril.
2.Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia In A 7-year-old Presenting With Lower Limb Pain – Not Just Your Simple Growing Pains!
The Singapore Family Physician 2020;46(7):32-35
This is a case report of a 7-year-old boy who presented with lower limb pain. He was initially presumed to have growing pains but was subsequently diagnosed with
acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). This case highlights the important clinical presentations and differential diagnoses of ALL that a family physician should be cognizant about to avoid misdiagnosis. It also demonstrates the importance of understanding the patient and family's perspectives when evaluating a child with lower limb pain. This enables us to anticipate
and meet their needs.

8.The preliminary study of the effect of ritodrine on the change of heart rate in threatened premature labor.
Chinese Journal of Practical Gynecology and Obstetrics 2001;17(4):228-230
Objective To determine the change of maternal heart rate during the treatment with ritodrine for threatened premature labor. Methods110 cases of threatened premature labor were chosen. The ritodrine 100mg in 5% G. S 500mL was intravenously administered. The initial dosage was 6 drops/min, and the dose was increased until uterine contractions were inhibited. The treatment lasted for 40 to 48 hours after the uterine contractions were inhibited, then the oral tablets was recommended. If necessary, repeated treatment was given to some patients. The maternal heart rate was recorded in the whole process of treatment and was compared with the dosage administered. The labor time, fetal weight and Apgar′s score were also analyzed. Results The maternal basic heart rate was increased at first and then decreased. The increasing significantly increased( P < 0.01 ) when the uterine contraction was inhibited. , but no difference showed among the groups of different gestational age( P>0.05 ). The maternal heart rate was increased with the increasing of ritodrine( max. 140/min). labor time was significantly prolonged with the treatment of ritodrine( P<0.01 ) ,while that of the idiopathic premature labor was prolonged most obviously ( P < 0.05 ). Average fetal weight was (2.42 ± 0.49) kg, and the average Apgar′s score was≥8. Conclusion In the treatment of inhibiting uterine contractions,the increasing of maternal heart rate caused by ritodrine can be used as an indicator of therapeutic effect.
9.Exploration of tumor response evaluation criteria in the era of tar-geted therapy
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2015;(6):366-370
The era of targeted molecular therapy for cancer has arrived. The mechanisms of targeted molecular drugs are different from those of chemotherapy drugs. The tumor response evaluation criteria that we currently use are the summary of experiences from evaluating the effect of chemotherapy drugs. Despite continuous improvement and standardization of the details, tumor response evalua-tion criteria, from the earliest WHO criteria to the improved RECIST and RECIST 1.1 criteria, are all based on measurement of tumor size, as chemotherapy drugs directly kill tumor cells. The aforementioned criteria are outlined in this review. However, targeted molecu-lar drugs mainly inhibit tumor cell proliferation. The effect of targeted molecular drugs on tumors is different from that of chemothera-py drugs. Thus, tumor response evaluation criteria suitable for targeted molecular drugs have been developed in recent years. This re-view introduces Choi criteria that use CT attenuation coefficient (Hounsfield unit [HU]) to describe tumor density. The criteria have measured indicators that include tumor size and tumor density. This review also introduces the following criteria derived from the Choi criteria for Modified Choi (mChoi) criteria size and attenuation CT (SACT), and morphology, attenuation, size, and structure (MASS).
10.Fabrication and properties of low-crystallinity carbonate apatite monolith bone graft
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2013;(34):6067-6072
BACKGROUND:As a good candidate for bioresorbable bone graft, carbonate apatite monolith can be prepared by sintering procedure;however, sintering can cause carbonate loss and result in a much lower rate of
biodegradation compared to the human bone, thereby influencing the formation of new bone.
OBJECTIVE:To fabricate low-crystal inity carbonate apatite monolith as bone graft and test its properties. METHODS:Calcium carbonate monolith prepared by carbonation of Ca(OH) 2 monolith was treated in 1 mol/L
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The calcium carbonate completely transformed into low-crystal inity B-type
carbonate apatite after treated for 14 days. Diametral tensile strength of the final product was (10.27±1.08) MPa, which is adequate as a reconstruction material for bone defect. The carbonate content was (4.80±0.50)%, similar to that of the nature bone. The molar Ca/P was 1.63±0.01, indicating the Ca-deficient carbonate apatite is
obtained. The present method al ows an easy fabrication of low-crystal inity B-type carbonate apatite block with adequate strength and without sintering process.
ammonium dihydrogen phosphate solution at 60 ℃ up to 14 days. Diametral tensile strength was examined for biomechanical properties;X-ray diffraction analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope observation and chemical analyses (carbonate, calcium and phosphate content) were also performed for physical and chemical properties.
