The patients were followed up by outpatients interview or telephone from March to June 2011 and adverse cardiovascular events were recorded.The patients were divided into MS and non-MS groups,and basic clinical data were compared between two groups.The proportion difference between two groups were tested by chi square. Multivariate logistic regression was established to analyze the factors related to progonosis.The survival ratio was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.Statistical significance was established at a P value of less than 0.05.Results ①A total of 606 (91.7％) patients successfully accepted follow-up.Mean follow-up time were ( 14.3 ±1.7 ) months.95 patients experienced adverse cardiovascular events ( 15.7％ ).②There were 393 patients (64.96％ ) satisfied the definition of metabolic syndrome.The patients in MS group were with higher BMI,SBP,DBP,blood glucose and disordered lipid (all P ＜ 0.05 ),with less fale patients (P =0.016),less current somking (P =0.008 ) and with higher platelet (P =0.037 ). The incidence of adverse cardiovascular events in two groups were 17.81％ and 11.79％ ( P ＞ 0.05 ). ③ Multivarite logistic regression revealed that the predictors of adverse cardiovascular events were age [ OR =2.628,95％ confidence interval (CI) 1.395 ～ 4.954,P =0.003 ],New York Heart Association (NYHA) ≥ 3 grade ( OR =2.310,95％ CI 1.095 ～4.870,P =0.028) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ( OR =4.328,95％ CI 1.955 ～9.580,P ＜ 0.001 ).However,MS was not related with prognosis ( OR =1.170,95％ CI 0.583 ～ 2.345,P =0.659 ).④The cumulative survival rates of no adverse cardiovascular events in the two groups were no significant difference ( P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusions MS is a risk factor with coronary heart disease.Howerer,it has no relationship with adverse cardiovascular events in patients with ACS after PCI.

Objective To explore the clinical and imaging features of pulmonary embolism (PE)in children with mycoplasma pneumonia (MP).Methods The clinical features,imaging manifestations and laboratory data of 6 children with MP complicated by PE were reviewed retrospectively.Results 6 cases of children were admitted with chief complaints of fever and cough,the D-dimer levels were increased obviously.Consolidation was observed in 4 cases in the right lower lobe combined with pleural effusion and in 2 cases in the left lobe,which showed homogeneous enhancement.Filling defect of pulmonary artery was observed in 1 case,and other 5 cases showed sparse pulmonary vascular in consolidation area.D-dimer returned to normal level and consolidation was absorbed after anticoagulation therapy.Conclusion MP combined with PE in children is rare,and the positive detection rate of pulmonary artery angiography is low.PE should be considered when MP continues to deterioration after anti-infection treatment,even though there is no typical imaging findings of PE.

OBJECTIVETo identify the clinical phenotype and gene mutation in two kindreds with type I inherited antithrombin (AT) deficiency.

METHODSThe coagulation and anticoagulation testing and thrombophilia screening were used for phenotypic diagnosis and immunonephelometry and chromogenic assay for plasma level of AT antigen (AT:Ag) and AT activity (AT:A), respectively. All of the seven exons and intron-exon boundaries and untranslation regions of AT gene were amplified by PCR, and the PCR products analysis was by direct sequencing. The corresponding gene sites of the two family members and healthy individuals were detected according to the gene mutation sites.

RESULTSThe plasma levels of AT:Ag of proband 1 and proband 2 were 126 mg/L and 117 mg/L, and AT:A was 49% and 48%, respectively. Heterozygotic deletion of 3239-3240delCT in proband 1 and nonsense mutation 3206A-->T (K70Stop) in proband 2 were rchaacterized in exon 2 of AT gene. And some of their family members were also detected with the heterozygotic gene mutation.

CONCLUSIONType I inherited antithrombin deficiency of the two probands were caused by AT gene mutation 3239-3240delCT and 3206A-->T (K70Stop).

The establishment of a polarized cellular morphology is essential for a variety of processes including neural tube morphogenesis and the development of the brain. Cdc42 is a Ras-related GTPase that plays an essential role in controlling cell polarity through the regulation of the actin and microtubule cytoskeleton architecture. Previous studies have shown that Cdc42 plays an indispensable role in telencephalon development in earlier embryo developmental stage (before E12.5). However, the functions of Cdc42 in other parts of brain in later embryo developmental stage or in adult brain remain unclear. Thus, in order to address the role of Cdc42 in the whole brain in later embryo developmental stage or in adulthood, we used Cre/loxP technology to generate two lines of tissue-specific Cdc42-knock-out mice. Inactivation of Cdc42 was achieved in neuroepithelial cells by crossing Cdc42/ flox mice with Nestin-Cre mice and resulted in hydrocephalus, causing death to occur within the postnatal stage. Histological analyses of the brains from these mice showed that ependymal cell differentiation was disrupted, resulting in aqueductal stenosis. Deletion of Cdc42 in the cerebral cortex also induced obvious defects in interkinetic nuclear migration and hypoplasia. To further explore the role of Cdc42 in adult mice brain, we examined the effects of knocking-out Cdc42 in radial glial cells by crossing Cdc42/flox mice with human glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)-Cre mice. Inactivation of Cdc42 in radial glial cells resulted in hydrocephalus and ependymal cell denudation. Taken together, these results highlight the importance of Cdc42 for ependymal cell differentiation and maintaining, and suggest that these functions likely contribute to the essential roles played by Cdc42 in the development of the brain.

Objective To analysis the effects on the growth of rats by repeated restraint in dermal exposure test. Methods SD rats in the restraint group was bound for 6 hours per day for 91 days according the way by dermal exposure, while SD rats in the control group didn't receive the treatment. Clinical signs, body weight and food consumption changes were observed for 91 days. When the study was terminated, hematology, clinical biochemistry, urinalyses, gross necropsy, and histopathology were carried out. Statistical methods such as the generalized estimating equation were used to compare the differences between two groups. Results The statistical results of generalized estimating equation showed that there was an interaction between the group and test time for male and female rats in body weight changes (P<0.05), and the body weight of male rats in the restraint group was lower than the control group (P<0.05) . Further analysis showed that for male rats there was significant difference between groups since the forth week (P<0.05), and the interaction was found between groups and test time (P<0.05) . For female rats, the interaction was found since the eighth week between the group and test time (P <0.05) .There was no significant differences in other parameters between two groups (P>0.05) . Conclusion Repeated restraint during dermal exposure affected the body weight gain of rats, and the sensitivity of male rats was higher than that of female rats.

Objective: To monitor the antimicrobial resistance and drug-resistance genes of Yersinia enterocolitis, Y. intermedia and Y. frederiksenii recovered from retailed fresh poultry of 4 provinces of China. Methods: The susceptibility of 25 isolated Yersinia spp. to 14 classes and 25 kinds of antibiotics was determined by broth microdilution method according to CLSI (Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute). The antibiotic resistance genes were predicted with antibiotic resistance genes database (ARDB) using whole genome sequences of Yersinia spp. Results: In all 22 Y. enterocolitis tested, 63.7% (14 isolates), 22.8% (5 isolates), 4.6% and 4.6% of 1 isolates exhibited the resistance to cefoxitin, ampicillin-sulbactam, nitrofurantoin and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, respectively. All the 25 isolates were multi-drug resistant to more than 3 antibiotics, while 64.0% of isolates were resistant to more than 4 antibiotics. A few Y. enterocolitis isolates of this study were intermediate to ceftriaxone and ciprofloxacin. Most Yersinia spp. isolates contained antibiotic resistance genes mdtG, ksgA, bacA, blaA, rosAB and acrB, and 5 isolates recovered from fresh chicken also contained dfrA1, catB2 and ant3ia. Conclusion The multi-drug resistant Yersinia spp. isolated from retailed fresh poultry is very serious in the 4 provinces of China, and their contained many kinds of drug-resistance genes.
