To find out the patterns and trend of clinical use of antihypertensive agents to provide a guidance for rational use of drugs, the antihypertensive drugs used in our hospital during 1995-1999 period was investigated in respect to the sum of consumption cost, drugs used and DDDs. Our results showed that the DDDs and the consumption cost for antihypertensive drugs have increased gradually for recent 5 years. The order of DDDs of drugs was as follows: calcium antagonists, adrenergic blocking drugs, ACE inhibitors, the drugs affecting sympathetic transmitters and peripheral vasodilators. The order of sum of money was as follows: ACE inhibitors, calcium antagonists and calcium antagonists respectively. It is concluded that a diverse array of anthhypertensive agents were available and widely used clinically and attention should be paid to the rational use of the drugs.

Using the research papers of Peking University Third Hospital recorded in SCIE since 2005 to 2014 as data basis, some bibliometric indexes were analyzed, including papers quality,cited times, impact factor, and funded papers.To reveal the current hospital research status and provide reference for policy drafting and subject development planning.In the past ten years, the quantity of paper increased significantly.However, highly impact papers published by Peking University Third Hospital were relatively rare, the cited times per paper in clinical medicine is lower than that of china mainland.It is necessary to improve the quality of research paper.

Objective To explore the expression profile of Wnt4 in rat kidney during renal development and its effect on renal development. Methods Rats with embryonic age of 18 days (E 18 d) , 20 days (E 20 d) as well as postnatal age of 0 day (P 0 d), 1 day (P 1 d), 3 days (P 3 d), 5 days (P 5 d) and 7 days (P 7 d) were selected. Expression levels of Wnt4 in rat kidney during renal development were quantified by immunohistochemistry and Western blot in all time points. Results Immuno?histochemistry analysis showed that during E 18 d to P 7 d, Wnt4 mainly expressed in proximal tubules, ureteric bud, comma shaped bodies and S shaped bodies of nephrogenic zone;the expression in the distal tubule was weak;the expression in renal corpuscle decreased with time;Western blot analysis showed that the expression of Wnt4 in rat kidney began to decrease from E 18 d and reached bottom at P 1 d then rise again until P 7 d when it dropped again. Conclusion During renal development, Wnt4 proteins were involved in the development of the nephrogenic zone through regulating canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, and was involved in extension of proximal tubules by inducing the non canonical Wnt/PCP signaling pathway. Expression of Wnt4 protein in rat kidney was closely related to nephron formation and development of proximal tubules.

Objective To establish the optimal section planes for observing ventricular septal defect(VSD) by real-time three dimensional echocardiography(RT-3DE).Methods In 6 pig hearts with different types of VSD, after high pressural perfusion with coupling reagent, two dimensional, dual plane and RT-3DE were performed with different section planes, estimating with half quantificational visional grade:4 marks,very clear;3 marks,clear;2 marks,not clear enough; 1 marks,not clear. Results Observation by RT-3DE, en-face view of atrial-ventricular(S2a) and en-face view of left ventricular septum(L1a) provided relatively ideal section planes in sub-arterial ventricular septal defect, S2a and en-face view of right ventricular septum(L2a) provided relatively ideal section planes in perimembranous and muscular VSD. Conclusions S2a reflects relatively ideal section plane in sub-arterial, perimembranous and muscular VSD.

Objective To evaluate the effects of traditional Chinese medicine likeDansen and western medicine in treating traumatic brain edema (TBE). Methods A total of 130 Wistar rats were divided randomly into six groups: Group A (normal contrast group), Group B (operation group), Group C (western medicine treatment group, WM group), Group D (western medicine and salvia injection), Group E (western medicine and Honghua injection) and Group F (western medicine and Sanqi injection). The model of brain edema was established by liquid nitrogen treatment to assay whole blood viscosity, water content and Even blues (EB) in brain tissues and to observe the content and pathologic changes of endothlin (ET) in plasma. Results Whole blood viscosity of Groups D, E and F was lower than that of Group B (P0.05). Water content and EB in brain tissues and ET of plasma in Groups C, D, E and F were lower significantly than those in Group B (P

Objective:To investigate the relationship between telomerase activity and the biological behavior of prostate cancer.Methods:The telomerase activity in prostate cancer tissues was detected by TRAP (telomeric repeat amplification protocol) ELISA which is based upon amplification of the initial telomerase product and detected by ELISA.Results:None of the 10 samples from normal prostates expressed telomerase activity.The thirteen of fifteen cases (86.0%) with prostate cancer presented telomerase activity.The activity of telomerase was associated with the pathological differentiation of prostate cancer.The two of twelve cases (17.0%) with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) expressed telomerase activity,and the activity of telomerase was lower than prostate cancer.Conclusion:The telomerase acitivity may be related to the biological behavior of prostate cancer and can evaluate the malignant potential of prostate cancer.The presence of telomerase acitivity in some cases of BPH may indicate the presence of a minority of malignant cells,as yet clinically undetected,within the population of BPH cells.
