Objective To investigate the efficacy of intracoronary tirofiban during percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)for patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods Seventy-six consecutive AMI patients,treated with primary coronary angioplasty in 12 hours were enrolled.They were randomly divided into two groups:tirofiban group(39 cases)and control group(37 cases).Tirofiban group was treated with intracoronary timfiban during PCI and after the operation for 48 hours.Both of them were given heparin in PCI and aspirin,clopidogrel before PCI.At the end of PCI procedure,angiographic features such as TIMI flow grade and TIMI myocardial perfusion grade(TMPG)were analyzed.The difference of two groups in complication and major adverse cardiac events(MACE) was investigated.Results The myocardial reperfusion of tirofiban group was better than that of control group[TIMI grade 3 flow 94.9%(37/39) vs 78.4%(29/37),P<0.05;TMPG 3 grade 89.7%(35/39)vs 67.6%(25/37),P<0.05].There was no significant difference between two groups in bleeding complication.The occurrence of MACE in tirofiban group was less than that in control group[7.7%(3/39)vs 18.9%(7/37),P<0.05].Conclusion Intracoronary tirofiban dunng primary PCI in patients with AMI can improve coronary flow and myocardial perfusion,and has no more bleeding and less MACE occurrence.

This article was aimed to study the distribution and effects of apolipoprotein E (ApoE) gene polymorphism of different constitutional types among coronary heart disease (CHD) patients with blood stasis syndrome on vascular endothelial cell (VEC) function. The whole gene sequencing method was used to identify genotypes of ApoE gene among 556 CHD patients with blood stasis syndrome, in order to analyze the relationship between polymorphism of ApoE gene and the level of VEC function. The results showed that the frequency of E3/3 genotype of each physical group was significantly lower than that of the healthy group; and the frequency of E3/4 genotype was significantly higher than that of the healthy group. In addition, the frequency of E3/3 genotype in qi deficiency constitution group was higher than that of blood stasis constitution group and yang deficiency constitution group; but the frequency of E3/4 genotype in blood stasis constitution group and yang deficiency constitution group was higher than that of the qi deficiency constitution group. The levels of ET and ET/NO in each of genotype groups of blood stasis constitution, yang deficiency constitution, qi deficiency constitution of CHD patients with blood stasis syndrome were higher than that of the healthy group (P < 0.05). In the genotype group of blood stasis constitution of CHD patients with blood stasis syndrome, the frequency of E3/4+E4/4 genotype ET was higher than that of other genotypes (P < 0.01). The levels of ET, NO, ET/NO in genotype groups of yang deficiency constitution and qi deficiency constitution of CHD patients with blood stasis syndrome were not significantly different. It was concluded that ApoE genotype E3/4, E3/3 may be the susceptible genotypes of blood stasis syndrome in CHD. There is a certain difference among different constitutional types. CHD with blood stasis syndrome patients, who are the constitution of blood stasis, carrying the ApoE gene polymorphism of E4 allele may have the function of increasing the ET level.

Objective To study the distribution of body constitutions of CHD patients with blood stasis syndrome;To explore the relationship between different body constitutions and their blood lipid levels.Methods WANG’s Constitutional Classification was used to diagnose body constitutions of 600 CHD patients with blood stasis syndrome, and analyze the relationship between the different body constitutions and triglyceride (TG) level, low density cholesterol (LDL-C) level, high density cholesterol (HDL-C) level.Results The four most common body constitutions of CHD patients with blood stasis syndrome in Taiyuan area were the constitutions of blood stasis, yang deficiency, qi deficiency and yin deficiency. The TG levels of the four body constitutions were higher than those of healthy people (P<0.01), but there was no obvious difference among TG levels of different body constitutions. The LDL-C level of the patients with the body constitution of blood stasis was higher than that of patients with other body constitutions and healthy people (P<0.01). Compared with healthy people, there was no obvious difference among HDL-C levels of different body constitutions (P>0.05).Conclusion There is a certain difference among the blood lipid levels in different body constitutions of CHD patients with blood stasis syndrome, and the patients of blood stasis syndrome with high LDL-C level are more dangerous than patients with other body costitutions.

OBJECTIVE:To study the time-effect and dose-effect of paeonol on the apoptosis of knee osteoarthritis(OA)artic-ular chondrocyte in rabbits and the mRNA expression of its related protein Bcl-2 and Bax. METHODS:60 big-ear rabbits were ran-domly divided into normal (normal saline) group,model (normal saline) group,paeonol high-dose,medium-dose and low-dose groups and triamcinolone acetonide(positive drug)group,with 10 rabbits in each group. Except for normal group,OA model was induced by right knee anterior cruciate ligament (ACLT) and the medial meniscus 1/3 resection in those groups. After modeling, different doses of paeonol(0.8,0.4,0.2 mg/kg),triamcinolone acetonide 0.2 mg/kg were injected into right articular cavity twice a week. 4 weeks and 8 weeks after administration,articular cartilage specimens were collected. Ultrapathological structure changes of articular chondrocytes were observed by electron microscope. Apoptosis of cartilage cell was observed by TUNEL and apoptotic index was calculated. mRNA expression of apoptosis related genes of Bcl-2 and Bax in articular cartilage tissue of rabbits were de-tected by in situ hybridization technique. RESULTS:Compared with normal group,articular chondrocyte of model group showed early and middle stage apoptosis morphology change after 4 and 8 weeks,and apoptosis index increased significantly and the mRNA expression of Bcl-2 and Bax was up-regulated (P<0.01);4 and 8 weeks later after administration,compared with model group,apoptosis index decreased and mRNA expression of Bax was down-regulated in paeonol groups,while mRNA expression of Bcl-2 was up-regulated(P<0.05 or P<0.01). Electron microscopy ultrastructural observation showed articular chondrocyte of pae-onol high-dose and middle-dose groups were in early stage of apoptosis.CONCLUSIONS:Paeonol can slow down articular chondro-cyte degeneration and destroy in OA model rabbits in time and dose dependently. Its mechanism may be associated with expression up-regulation of Bcl-2 and expression down-regulation of Bax.
