As the indexes of reflecting whole blood coagulation and fibrinolytic capacity, thrombelas-tography are being increasingly used in the fields of guiding intraoperative blood transfusion, hypercoagulable state monitoring and correction, treatment of trauma patients, and clotting mechanism research. This article reviews the clinical application value and limitation of thrombelastography in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease.

Objective To obeserve the effects of acute hypervolemic hemodilution(AHH) with hypertonic .sodium chloride hydroxyethyl starch 40(HSH 40) on hemodynamics and fluid balance in patients under general anesthesia.Methods Fifty patients undergoing radical surgery for gastral cancer under general anesthesia were randomly divided into 2 groups with 25 patients each.Acute hypervolemic bemodilution (AHH) was performed with HSH 40 6 ml/kg in group A or with hydroxyethyl statch(HES) 6 ml/kg in group,which was infused within 30 minuts.HR,MAP,CVP were recorded before(T_0),at 30 min (T_1),60 min (T_2) after infusionand and the end of operation (T_3).The amounts of bleeding,HSH 40 and HES and urine output were recorded as well.Results There were no significant diferences in HR and MAP between two groups at all time points.CVP was sighificantly higher at T_1-T_3 than that at To in two groups.The urine output was more in groups A than that in group B(P<0.05).Conclusion AHH with HSH 40 can effectively expand blood vlume and increase urine output in surgical patients under general anesthesia.

This study aims to compare the urate-lowering response rate of febuxostat and allopurinol in gout patient using a model-based meta-analysis. The literature search identified 22 clinical trials of gout with a total of 43 unique treatment arms that met our inclusion criteria, and a total of 6 365 gout patients were included in the study. The response rates of allopuriol and febuxostat were characterized by Tmax model and Emax model respectively, and the effect of baseline serum uric acid (sUA) and patient type on the drug effect was tested. The results showed that allopurinol can reach an average maximum response rate of 50.8% while febuxostat can reach a 100% response rate within a very short time, and the ED50 was 34.3 mg. Covariate analysis revealed that baseline sUA has a negative effect on response rate of allopurinol, and a positive effect on the predicted ED50 of febuxostat. For patients who had shown inadequate response to prior allopurinol treatment, the average response rate was about half that of the allopurinol responder patients.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerativedisease. Ovariectomized (OVX) AD rat model has been widely used in the experimental research recently. This article reviewed the method of OVX model establishment, behaviorchange, histopathology and biochemistry. Articles published in recent 20 years were collected in the review of the development.

Objective To compare transfection properties of two different fluorescently labeled PIK3CA siR-NA and to screen out PIK3CA siRNA with high transfection efficiency and strong anti-quenching ability.Methods Two different fluorescently labeled PIK3CA siRNA was transfected into gastric cancer cell BGC-823 by Lipofectamine 2000.The distribution and quenching of fluorescence were observed by inverted fluorescence microscope.Image J software was used to analyze their transfection efficiency.Real-time quantitative PCR was performed to detect the effect of different fluorescently labeled PIK3CA siRNA on PIK3CA mRNA expression.Results The transfection efficiency and anti-quenching ability of two different fluorescently labeled PIK3CA siRNA were different under the same transfection conditions.The transfection efficiency showed no significant differences between Cy3 or FAM labeled PIK3CA siRNA and negative control siRNA(P ＞ 0.05),but the transfection efficiency of Cy3 labeled PIK3CA siRNA and negative control siRNA was significantly higher than the FAM labeled (P ＜ 0.05).Inhibitory efficacy of target mRNA expression induced by Cy3 labeled PIK3CA siRNA was significantly higher than that of FAM labeled PIK3CA siRNA.Conclusion Cy3 labeled PIK3CA siRNA could act as a good tracer and provide an important evidence for further construction of Cy3 labeled PIK3CA siRNA nanoparticle.

Objective To analyze the immediate and following up result of 122 patients with acute myocardlal infarction(AMI)which underwent emergency percutaneous coronary interventlon(PCI).Methods 122 cases of AMI patients underwent the emergency PCI by transfemoral artery approach during June 1998 to December 2005.119 casea performed primary PCI,3 performed rescue PCI.Results The successful rate of vessel visualization and operation were 95.1%.93.4%.respectively.5 eases were with the help of intra-aortic balloon pumping.Subacute instent thrombosis occurred in 2 patients.In-hopital mortality was 4.1% (5/122).The left ventricular ejection fraction in echocardiography one after week was(0.55±0.16).Average hospital day is(9.5±5.8)(1～36).6-month mortality was 5.7%(7/122).Conclusion Primary PCI expanded the indication for the treatment of STEMI patients wlth establishment of patent infarct related artery and normal blood flow,increased tlle survival of high-risk patients,and shortened the hospitalization.Rescue PCI was an effective measure for the patients failing to intravenous thrombolysis.

OBJECTIVEThis work lays the foundation for establishing a digital model database with normal occlusion. A digital dental cast is acquired through grating projection, and model features are measured through reverse engineering.

METHODSThe grating projection system controlled by a computer was projected onto the surface of a normal dental model. Three-dimensional contour data were obtained through multi-angle shooting. A three-dimensional model was constructed, and the model features were analyzed by using reverse engineering. The digital model was compared with the plaster model to determine the accuracy of the measurement system.

RESULTSThe structure of three-dimensional reconstruction model was clear. The digital models of two measurements exhibited no significant difference (P > 0.05). When digital and plaster models were measured, we found that the crown length and arch width were not statistically different (P > 0.05), whereas the difference between the crown width and arch length was statistically significant (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe reconstruction of a digital model by using the grating projection technique and reverse engineering can be used for dental model measurement in clinic al and scientific research and can provide a scientific method for establishing a digital model database with normal occlusion.
