Objective　To explore left atrial(LA) structur e and function changes in 86 cases of essential hypertension disease (EH) and ef fects of age,gender,hypertension duration,hypertension stage and left ventricula r function on them.Methods　 Using M-mode echocardiogram to detect LA diameter, Usi ng ultrasonic acoustic quantification (AQ) to detect LA area,LA systolic and dia stolic function,LV systolic and diastolic function. Results　①Compared with normal group, LA diameter and LA area we re larger in EH group, LA systolic and diastolic function were impaired. ② Gend er had no effect on LA structure and functione in EH patients; LA diameter and L A area dilated with age, LA systolic function was impaired with age. ③ Hyperten sion duration had no effect on LA structure and function in EH patients. ④LA d iameter and area dilated with hypertension stage. With the development of hypert ension, LA diastolic function was first impaired,then LA systolic function was a lso impaired.⑤LA structure and function had signifficant relationship with LV d iastolic function, LA might dilate and LA systolic function might be impaired wi th LV diastolic function damage.Conclusions　LA diameter and LA area are dilated and LA function i s impaired in EH patients, which changes become more signifficant with age. LA s tructure change and systolic function impairment have a relationship with LV dia stolic dysfunction.

The special anatomy around the head of pancreas leads to difficulties in arriving at a definitive diagnosis for a pancreatic head mass,the management of which has recently become a hot topic and a challenge for clinicians.Despite recent advances in tumor markers,ultrasound,CT,PET/CT and MRI,some of these pancreatic head masses cannot be diagnosed with certainty.A fine needle aspiration biopsy can be used before operation; however,false negative results not infrequently happen.Based on the reports from domestic and foreign medical literatures published recently,this paper reviewed and discussed the proper treatment strategies when biopsy results from a pancreatic head mass turn out negative.

With continuous research of the formation mechanism of chronic pancreatitis with mass in the head of the pancreas and its relation with pancreatic cancer,and steady improvement of the operation safety,the number of operation for the chronic pancreatitis with mass in the head of the pancreas is increasing.On the other hand,with the improvement of the accuracy of preoperative diagnosis,Tru-cut intraoperative biopsy is increasingly applied to patients with negative results of preoperative ultrasonography biopsy,which is important for the surgical procedure selection.With the premise of effective treatment,continous improvement of treatment strategies to the chronic pancreatitis with mass in the head of the pancreas can maximize the benefit of patients.

Objective To explore the mechanism of the protection of acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF) for hippocampal astrocytes from injury induced by gentamicin. Methods Hippocampal astrocytes were isolated from newborn (24 hours) Sprague-Dawley rats, puri-fied, and identified with glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunofluorescence. The third generations were cultured for 3 days and divid-ed into 3 groups:control group was cultured routinely, injury group was cultured with 2.0 g/L gentamicin for 24 hours, and protection group was cultured with 4.25μg/L aFGF for 24 hours and then cultured with 2.0 g/L gentamicin for 24 hours. Western blotting was adopted to de-tect the expressions of P38, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)1/2. Results Hippocampal as-trocytes were culturated successfully with the purity above 95%. The ERK1 increased in the injury group compared with the control group (P<0.05). Compared with the injury group, the p38 increased (P<0.05) and the ERK1 decreased (P<0.05) in the protection group. There was no significant difference among others (P>0.05). Conclusion The mitogen-activated protein kinase signal pathway, especially P38 and ERK1, may associate with the protection of aFGF for hippocampal astrocytes from injury induced by gentamicin.

Aim To study the effect of resveratrol on the expression of FAK and the level of phosphorylated FAK, and to investigate its possible mechanism of resveratrol on the metastasis-associated ability of human highly metastatic ovarian carcinoma HO-8910PM cells line. Methods MTT assay was used to examine cytotoxicity of resveratrol on HO-8910PM cells after 24 h treatment; The expression of FAK protein and the level of phosphorylated FAK were assessed by Western blotting analysis. Results MTT assay showed that resveratrol had weak cytotoxicity on HO-8910PM cells after 24 h treatment, its IC50 value was 163.40?2.48 ?mol?L-1. The expression of FAK and the level of phosphorylated FAK decreased obviously in HO-8910PM cells treated with 25~100 ?mol?L-1 resveratrol for 24 h. Conclusion The mechanism of resveratrol inhibiting the metastasis-associated ability of human highly metastatic ovarian carcinoma HO-8910PM cells line involves the expression of FAK and the level of phosphorylated FAK.

Objective To evaluate the role of polymorphonuclear (PMN) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).The preventive effects of Vitamin C-a potent free radical scavenger,on parameters of PMN oxygen free radicals (OFR) production in patients with AMI were also studied.Methods 60 patients with AMI were randomized to receive either conventional treatment only (group Ⅰ,n=30) or conventional treatment supplemented with vitamin C infusion,3.0 g/d,for 7 days (group Ⅱ,n=30).Parameters of PMN OFR production were assayed by a method named as polymorphonuclear chemiluminescence (PMN-CL) on the 1st,3rd,7th and 10th day after been hospitalized.62 healthy controls of similar age,sex were also studied.Results Parameters of PMN-CL increased significantly in patients with AMI compared with that in the healthy controls.Parameters of PMN-CL decreased significantly in group Ⅱ on the 3rd,7th and 10th day compared with that in group Ⅰ(P<0.05,0.01,0.001,respectively).ST segment score was significantly higher in group Ⅱ than that in group Ⅰ on the 3rd,7th and 10th day.Conclusion These results indicate that the PMN act as a potential contributor to extension of tissue injury induced by OFR.Supplementation with vitamin C may suppress PMN OFR production and could be beneficial in preventing myocardial necrosis.

Aneurysms and pseudoaneurysm are commonly encountered with arteriovenous vascular access for haemodialysis. They are difficult complications to manage. Due to the limited number of vascular centers available, patients were unable to seek treatment until further complications arise. The technique of partial aneurysmectomy and primary repair was adopted as the method of repair in this study. A total of 20 cases underwent the surgery from 2019 to 2020. Among the 20 cases, one patient had two pseudoaneurysms at different location which requires her to undergo the procedure twice. The successful cannulation rate post repair was 70% whereas the overall complication rate was 35% which might be attributed to the small sample size. Overall, this study demonstrated that AVF aneurysm and pseudoaneurysm can be safely treated with this approach and can be done effectively in non-vascular centers by general surgeons.
