Objective Analysing the CT manifestations of the crura of diaphragm space occupying lesions and disucssing the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of lesions.Methods 56 cases of the crura of diaphragm space occupying lesions were observed retrospectively,these lesions were confirmed by clinic and pathology.Results The lesions of crura of diaphragm space followed up:15 cases of spinal metastases;5 cases of spinal tuberculosis;27 cases of lymphadenia;1 case of abdominal aorta false aneurysm;3 cases of azygos vein and semiazygos vein dilatory;1 case of taint caused by esophageal perforation;4 cases of invaded by tumour directly. Conclusion We should recognize the nodes and space of crura of diaphragm correctly,that is helpful to recognize the occupying lesions of crura of diaphragm space properly.

Objective To study the clinical characteristics of acute non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction(NSTEMI).Methods 211 patients of NSTEMI and STEMI underwent coronary artery angiography and echocardiogram.Patients'history and symptome were collected and the data of coronary artery angiography and echocardiogram were analyzed.Results Compared with STEMI,NSTEMI patients had more risk factors and postinfarction angina pectoris;severe coronary artery disease and three coronary vessel disease.But NSTEMI had relatively little effects on cardiac function.Conclusion NSTEMI always has more severe coronary artery disease and postinfarction ischemic effects.So more attention should be paid to its standard therapy.

s To compare the clinical effects of intravenously and orally administered aspirin in the treatment for acute coronary syndrome (ACS),and to evaluate the adverse effects of intravenous administration of aspirin.Methods One hundred and twenty-five patients with unstable angina pectoris or acute myocardial infarction were randomized into three groups:group 1 received intravenous aspirin (300mg/d,n =40),while groups 2 (n =42) and 3 (n =43) received orally administered aspirin (100mg/d and 300mg/ d,respectively).The control group included 30 patients with no heart disease or blood disease,and they had never taken aspirin and clopidogrel.Blood samples were taken at 2nd and 7th day of hospitalization.Platelet aggregation and the level ofplatelet activation marker CD62p were measured and compared among the groups.Patients were followed up for 6 months for the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events.Results There were no statistically significant differences in the decrease in adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-induced platelet aggregation rate (12.01±10.45%,6.76±14.62% and 9.73±16.72% for group 1,group2 and group 3,respectively),the decrease in arachidonic acid (AA)-induced platelet aggregation rate (6.73±11.34%,6.95±12.45% and 7.57±13.11%,respectively),and the decrease in CD62p level (10.89±18.62%,8.92±11.57% and 7.05±15.67%,respectively).At six months,there were 4 deaths (10%) in group 1,4 deaths (9.5%) in group 2 and 5 deaths (11.6%) in group 3 (P＞0.05).Conclusions Intravenous administration of aspirin provides a new approach as an anti-platelet treatment for ACS patients,especially those who can not tolerate oral administration of aspirin.(J Geriatr Cardiol 2008;5:212-216)

[Objective]To explore the role of estrogen and estrogen receptor (ER) in the pathogenesis and regulation of non-invasive fungal rhinosinusitis (NIFR).[Methods]Totally 60 patients with NIFS who met the inclusion criteria in Fuzhou Second General Hospital from November 2020 to November 2023 were selected as the NIFS group,while 30 healthy volunteers were recruited as the blank control group. Samples of each group were collected. The number of eosinophils and mast cells in each group were detected by HE staining;ER expression was detected by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence;mRNA expression levels of NF-κB,IKK and MASPIN were detected by qPCR;and protein expression levels of NF-κB,IKK and MASPIN were detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot.[Results]In the NIFS group,the counts of eosinophils and mast cells were significantly increased respectively,compared with those in the control group,and the inter-group differences are statistically significant (P<0.01 and P<0.05,respectively). The Estrogen Receptor (ER) score in the NIFS group was significantly increased compared with that in the control group,and the inter-group differences are statistically significant (P<0.05). Additionally,the average high-density value in the NIFS group was significantly increased compared with that in the control group,and the inter-group differences are statistically significant (P<0.01). The expression levels of NF-κB,IKK,and MASPIN in the NIFS group were significantly increased respectively,compared with those in the control group,and the inter-group differences are statistically significant (P<0.01,P<0.05,and P<0.01,respectively). The mRNA expression levels of NF-κB,IKK,and MASPIN in the NIFS group were significantly increased,respectively,compared with those in the control group (P<0.01). Furthermore,the protein expression levels of NF-κB,IKK,and MASPIN in the NIFS group were increased,respectively,and the inter-group differences are statistically significant (P<0.01,P<0.01,and P<0.05,respectively).[Conclusion]Our results show that the significant increase in the number of eosinophils and mast cells,and in the expression levels of ER,NF-κB,IKK and MASPIN may indicate a significant increase in eosinophil and mast cell infiltration in ER positive patients,and suggest the involvement of estrogen and its receptors in the pathogenesis of NIFS.
