Objective To study the effect of myocardial infarction induced by distal left ascending artery occlusion on left ventrieular(LV) synchronism. Methods Routine echocardiography and vector velocity imaging were performed within 2 hours before and 7-14 days after myocardial infarction by occluding distal left ascending coronary arteries in experimental pigs. Routine eehocardiographie parameters of LV, including end diastolic and systolic diameters, volumes, and spherical indexes were measured or calculated. Six segmental peak systolic velocity, strain and strain rate were compared between pre- and post-myocardial infarction. Results After myocardial infarction, LV end diastolic, end systolic long diameter and end systolic volume increased with decreased ejection fraction. With the 6 segmental systolic velocity, strain and strain rate significantly reduced,the mean 6-segmental time to peak strain rate delayed significantly. Conclusions Abnormal synchronism after myocardial infarction may aggravate LV systolic dysfunction.

Objective To investigate the metabolites of serum samples from liver cirrhotic patients with or without minimal hepatic encephalopathy,and even overt hepatic encephalopathy,then to find out diagnostic markers for minimal hepatic encephalopathy.Methods High performance liquid chromatography-orbit trap mass spectrometry (UPLC/LTQ-Orbit trap MS) technology was applied to analyze the serum metabolites from 38 patients of liver cirrhosiswith hepatitis B and 33 healthy volunteers.Results The serum metabolites of patients with simple liver cirrhosis were different from those of patients with minimal or overt hepatic encephalopathy.The serum metabolites of patients with minimal hepatic encephalopathy was mostly similar with those of overt hepatic encephalopathy patients.Arginase,L-tyrosine,glutamic acid,two L-phenylalanine peptide,homovanillic acid,omithine,L-serine were increased in patients with minimal or overt hepatic encephalopathy,and hypoxanthine decreased in patients with minimal or overt hepatic encephalopathy patients.Conclusions The serum metabolites of patients with minimal hepatic encephalopathy are mostly similar to those of patients with overt hepatic encephalopathy.Arginase,L-tyrosine,glutamic acid,two L-phenylalanine peptide,homovanillic acid,ornithine,L-serine maybe the early metabolites biomarkers to diagnose minimal hepatic encephalopathy.Hypoxanthine is likely to be an effective complement to treat patients with hepatic encephalopathy.

Objective To study the relationship between insulin resistance and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RASS) in newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus, and to provide the best treatment for type 2 diabetes mellitus with hypertension . Methods Ninety cases of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus were included. After stratified by gender, all the patients were divided into hypertension group and non-hypertension group. According to whether taking hypotensor, the patients with hypertension were further divided into non-medication group, calcium channel blockers (CCB) group, and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) group respectively. Results In female patients with hypertension, the IAI, levels of rennin and angiotensin II were higher than those in non-hypertension group and the systolic pressure of female patients taking ARB was lower than those taking CCB. Pearson′s correlation analysis showed that angiotensin II and aldosterone was positively correlated with HOMA-IR but negatively correlated with IAI in females. Conclusions In female newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus , RASS is related to the development of insulin resistance , so RASS antagonists are the first choice to achieve better blood glucose control in female patients.

Adult male rats were divided at random into two groups and trained on the treadmill running schedules, 60 min/day and 10min/day for group A and B separately. Four weeks later the ultrastructure of the left ventricular myocardium was examined and the specific surface of mitochondria wasmeasured. Comparing to the corresponding control group, the specific surface of mitochondria in the two groups of trained rats was decreased significantly. (5.883+0.12 um and 6.050?0.12 um to 6.564?0.17 um). This means myocardium mitochondria in trained rats were swelling. The reason might be that the myocardium injury was induced by exercise training.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of 1-3-n-Butylphthalide on the blood-brain barrier (BBB) following whole brain irradiation in rats.Methods144 male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham-irradiation group,irradiation group,1-3-n-Butylphthalide group,and irradiation plus 1-3-n-Butylphthalide group.Whole-brain irradiation was given as a single-dose of 10 Gy using 4 MV X-ray.The rats were injected intraperitoneally with 1-3-n-Butylphthalide at 0.3 mg/kg,1.0 mg/kg,3.0 mg/kg once per day.The changes of the BBB were assessed by Evans blue (EB) assay.The expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the brain tissue was determined by immunohistochemistry. The circulating endothelial cells (CECs) isolated from right ventricular blood were counted.MRI was evaluated with the T1-weighted images,T2-weighted images and MRI enhancement images induced by Gd-DTPA.The data were compared among the groups through Student-Newman-Keuls test.ResultsCompared with the sham-irradiation group,the EB content,the expression of VEGF in the brain tissue and the CECs were significantly increased in the irradiation group (2.81∶ 7.82,P =0.002;5.83∶ 10.26,P=0.003;3.16∶6.14,P =0.002).The signal intensity of T1-weighted images was significantly decreased while T2-weighted images and the enhancement rate significantly increased in the irradiation group (P =0.004 -0.018 ).Compared with irradiation group,the EB content,the expression of VEGF and the CECs were decreased significantly in the irradiation plus 1-3-n-Butylphthalide group ( 7.80∶ 3.86,P =0.007 ; 10.83 ∶ 5.26,P =0.008 ;6.36∶ 3.64,P =0.009 ).However,the changes in the MRI were significantly attenuated ( P =0.008-0.026,and 0.006 -0.038,respectively).Conclusions Following whole brain irradiation,1-3-n-Butylphthalide can decrease the permeability of the BBB in rats via decreasing VEGF expression and decreasing the CECs.
