Adequate assessment of the severity of mitral regurgitation is fundamental to decisions on the timing and the patterns of surgical treatment.Nowadays,two-dimensional echocardiography continues to be the first choice of assessment,but it's considerable limitations preclude its being a real gold standard.With the newly emerging techniques,such as three-dimensional color Doppler ultrasonography,multi-detector CT and MRI,the parameters promoted may have the potential to overcome some of the pitfalls of the two-dimensional methods.Advances in imaging assessment of the severity of mitral regurgitation were reviewed in the article.

Objective To investigate the impact of citreoviridin(CIT) on mRNA expression of mitochondrial respiratory chain synthesis related transcriptional regulation gene,mitochondrial membrane(MMP) potential and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cardiomyocytes of rat.Methods Viability of rat primary cardiomyocytes treated with different concentrations of CIT (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 μmol/L) for 24 h was determined by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) method.Based on the MTT curve,median inhibitory concentration(IC50) was calculated using SPSS 13.0.High-,medium-and low-dose groups of CIT(1.650,1.234,0.715 μmol/L) were defined corresponding to 99％,95％ and 90％ of cardiomyocyte viability,respectively.CIT was not added in as the control group.After 24 hours,the mRNA expression levels of peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor γcoactivator(PGC-1α),nuclear respiratory factor 1 (Nrf1) and nuclear respiratory factor 2(Nrf2) in cardiomyocytes were detected by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Changes of MMP and intracellular ROS were determined by a fluorescence microplate reader using 5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethylbenzimidazolcarbocyanine iodide (JC-1) and 2,7-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFH2-DA) as fluorescent probes.Results Compared with 0 μmol/L CIT group [(89.4 ± 17.6)％],viabilities of rat primary cardiomyocytes treated with 2-10 μmol/L CIT groups[(80.2 ± 20.2)％,(74.4 ± 18.7)％,(63.2 ± 8.9)％,(51.5 ± 18.8)％,(39.0 ± 15.7)％,(22.6 ± 10.5)％,(19.9 ± 4.9)％,(20.7 ± 4.8)％,(18.5 ± 3.3)％] decreased significantly(all P ＜ 0.05).The IC50 value of cardiomyocytes after24 h treatment with CIT was 4.6 μmol/L The PGC-1α mRNA expressions ofhigh-,medium-and low-dose groups(0.431 ± 0.041,0.619 ± 0.031,0.653 ± 0.037) were significantly lower compared to that of the control group(0.776 ± 0.081,all P ＜ 0.05).The Nrf1 mRNA expression of high-dose group(0.358 ± 0.05) was significantly lower compared to that of the control group(0.580 ± 0.098,P ＜ 0.05).Nrf2 mRNA expressions of the high-and medium-dose groups(0.352 ± 0.041,0.472 ± 0.011) were significantly lower than that of the control group (0.667 ± 0.091,all P＜ 0.05).Compared with the control groups[(100.00 ± 0.00)％,(100.00 ± 0.00)％],the MMP levels of high-,medium-and low-dose groups[(55.3 ± 3.3)％,(69.8 ± 4.7)％,(81.8 ± 2.7)％] were significantly lower and the ROS levels[(606.0 ± 46.3)％,(275.0 ± 53.5)％,(158.9 ±29.5)％] were significantly higher(all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions CIT inhibits the biosynthesis of mitochondria in primary cardiomyocytes and induces oxidative stress.Myocardial injury is caused by cardiomyocyte apoptosis through mitochondrial pathway,which leads to myocardial injury.

Objective To establish an orthotopic animal model of human prostate carcinoma (PC),and to provide a useful tool for the research of PC. Methods A total of 30 male BALB/c nude mice were included.First,2?10 6 human PC-3 cells were injected subcutaneously in 10 nude mice.Then 8 weeks later,the tumor on mice backs were took out and smashed into pieces.The tissue was implanted on the ventral lateral lobe of prostate gland by surgical orthotopic implantation in the other 20 nude mice.Twelve weeks later, the mice were autopsied,and histopathological examination of orthotopic tumors and relevant organs was done to identify and quantitate micrometastasis. Results Of the 20 mice,18 (90%) had tumor growth.The tumors were greater than 1.5 cm in diameter in 17 mice.Dilatation of bladder and hydronephrosis because of obstruction occurred in 12 mice.A high frequency of lymph node and organ metastasis was noted upon histological examination (10 with retroperitoneal para-aortic lymph node metastasis,4 with lung metastasis,1 with liver metastasis).But no bone metastasis was found. Pathological sections showed that most parts of the prostate were occupied by tumor cells. The nuclei looked polymorphic and hyperchromatic.Abnormal nucleus division could be seen.The cortices and medullae of metastatic lymph nodes were occupied by tumor cells. Conclusions The model set up by surgical orthotopic implantation can show the biological features of prostate carcinoma cells well.It expresses the metastatic potential of PC cell line significantly and can be considered an ideal heterotransplant animal model.

Objective To investigate the pubertal growth patterns and anthropometric characteristics of the patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis(AIS) by anthropometry measurements. Methods The anthropometric data of 256 AIS girls were collected. The mean age of diagnosis was 14.1 years old(from 12 to 16 years old). The children with more than 10 degree of the scoliosis angle at coronal level were diagnozed as AIS. The control group consisted of 462 age-matched health girls. Four variables were measured: height, sitting height, arm span and menstrual states. Height and sitting height were adjusted using Bjure formula to make up the height loss from spinal deformity. The above variables were analyzed between AIS group and the controls. Results There were no differences in the composition of age between two groups. There were no significant differences in height,sitting height and arm span between the 256 cases of AIS girls and the 462 controls. However, the corrected height and sitting height were significantly higher in AIS than those of the controls. The menstrual onset time was earlier in AIS than that in controls. There were no statistical differences in corrected height, corrected sitting height and arm span between AIS girls and the controls at the age group of 12 years old. On the contrary, the AIS girls showed shorter uncorrected height than the controls did at this age. However, the scoliotic girls were found in the corrected height, the corrected sitting height and the arm span significantly taller than the controls between ages of 13 and 15 years. There were significant differences in corrected height and corrected sitting height between AIS girls and the controls at the age of 16 years old, while no difference were found in the variables of height, sitting height and arm span. Conclusion There is an abnormal growth pattern in AIS during pubertal growth spurt, which may be related to the pathogenesis of AIS.
