Objective To investigate the relationship between vascular lesion and serological changes in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) complicated with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods According to the standard, a total of 168 patients of OSAHS complicated with CHD were selected in this study. Those patients were divided into 3 groups according to the apnea hypopnea index (AHI) level:light group (AHI, 5-14/h), moderate group (AHI, 15-30/h) and severe group (AHI,>30/h). Syntax scores were performed on three groups according to coronary angiography results. The data of hemoglobin (Hb), platelet count (PLT), fibrinogen (FIB), D-Dimer (DD), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein (LDL), high density lipoprotein (HDL), triacylglycerol (TG), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), uric acid (UA), creatinine (Cr) and echocardiographic examination index were collected and analyzed in three groups. Results The Syntax score was significantly higher in severe group than that in mild and moderate groups (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the Syntax score between mild and moderate groups. The levels of Hb, FIB, LDL, pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP), and right ventricle transverse diameter (RVD) were significantly lower in the mild and moderate groups than those in the severe group (P<0.01). The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was significantly lower in the severe group than that in the mild and moderate groups (P < 0.01). There were no significant differences in levels of Hb, FIB, LDL, PAP, RVD and LVEF between mild group and moderate group (P > 0.05). Conclusion The serology and cardiac structure can change gradually in severe OSAHS patients, and the coronary artery lesion will be more complex. Therefore, the clinical treatment should pay attention to screening for OSAHS in patients with coronary heart disease.

Based on the investigation of a hospital's grants during 2004-2005 and the authorized during 2002-2005 (385 in total), we tried to find the trends and bias of clinical sciences at present. We analysed on the types of grants (clinical or basic), research objects, experimental methods, discipline involved, modes of cooperation, and background of applicants. A close connection between research and clinical trial, interdisciplinary study, patient-centered practice and international competitions are becoming more and more important. To meet the needs of clinical research, policies and devotions such as technical platforms are needed.

Objective To determine the level of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and to assess its relationship with disease activity and organ damage. Methods The plasma levels of MCP-I were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 95 patients with SLE and 21 healthy controls. Disease activity in SLE patients was assessed using the SLE Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI). Results Plasma level of MCP-1 was significantly elevated in SLE patients than in healthy controls [(849±289) pg/ml vs (426±266) pg/ml, P<0.01]. Moreover, level of MCP-1 was significantly higher in SLE patients with lupus nephritis (LN) than in patients without LN (P<0.01), andin SLE patients with neuropsychiatric symptoms than in patients without neuropsychiatric involvement (P< 0.01). In addition, significant correlation between plasma MCP-I levels and the SLEDAI was observed (r= 0.3699, P<0.01), and this relationship was not influenced by the treatment with glucocorticoid and cyclophosphamide. Conclusion MCP-I may play an important role in the pathogenesis of SLE, including renal and neuropsychiatric involvement. MCP-I is also a serologic marker of disease activity in patients with SLE, and its measurement in SLE patients may be useful for the evaluation of disease activity.

Objective Hypoalbuminemia is a typical symptom of nephrotic syndrome ( NS) , which may result from the loss of much protein with urine.Hyperbilirubinemia is also a common symptom in patients with NS.This study is intended to reveal the relationship between hypoalbuminemia and hyperbilirubinemia in patients with NS by investigating urine bilirubin, albumin( ALB ) and 24-hour urine protein in the NS group, chronic glomerulonephritis ( CGN ) group and postoperative gastroparesis syndrome ( PGS) group ( ALB<35 g/L) .Methods Totally 187 patients with NS, 70 patients with CGN and 64 patients with PGS ( ALB <35 g/L ) were recruited before ALB, urinary protein ( UPR ) , urinary microalbuminuria/creatinine(Umalb/cr) and total bilirubin(TBIL) were detected.SPSS 17.0 Software was used to analyze the difference between the three groups and to reveal the correlations between TBIL and UPR, ALB.Results TBIL, ALB, UPR and Umalb/Cr levels were significantly different between NS, CGN and PGS groups ( one-way ANOVA test, P <0.05), and TBIL was positively correlated with ALB but negatively correlated UPR and Umalb/Cr in both NS and CGN groups (Spearman′s rho test,P<0.05);but no correlation was found between these items in PGS group (Spearman′s rho test,P>0.05) .Conclusion Serum bilirubin of patients with NS is at a low level and shows significant correlations with serum albumin and urinary protein levels.No similar association is found with the other two groups.The results in this study show that the causes of low serum bilirubin in patients with NS may related to the large amount of protein lost in urine.
