Objective To explore the effect of aspirin resistance on cardiovascular events in non-insulin-dependent diabetes melli-tus patients .Methods 496 patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus received daily aspirin therapy (100mg/d) 4 weeks were recruited from Jun .2006 to Sept .2010 .Platelet aggregation was measured by light transmission aggregometry .The patients were divided into three groups :aspirin resistance group ,aspirin semi-resistance group and aspirin-sensitive group .The clinical bio-chemistry indications and the adverse cardiovascular events were collected .Results 11 .69% of patients were found to be resistant to aspirin therapy ,and 37 .90% of patients to be aspirin semi-responders .There were 67 .48% female in aspirin resistance group and aspirin semi-responders .The preprandial glucose of group AR and ASR was higher than that of group AS (P<0 .05) .The HbA1C and TG of group AR were higher than those of group AS(P<0 .05) .There was statistically significant difference of the rate of car-diovascular events .Conclusion The measure of platelet aggregation should be taken in the diabetic mellitus patients and pay atten-tion on the dose of aspirin recommended .Particular attention is should also devote to the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events .

Carotid stenosis is an important modifiable risk factor in ischemic stroke.The com prehensive diagnosis of carotid stenosis,including the comprehensive understanding of stenosis degree,plaque stability,and head and neck vessels,which has important guiding significance for the prevention and treatment of ischemic stroke.This article reviews the diagnostic values of digital subtraction angiography,sonography,magnetic resonance angiography and CT angiorgaphy in carotid stenosis.

We report a case of a 47-year-old man who firstly complained of throat pain for half a month accompanied with fever. Specialized examination showed tonsils' hypertrophy and the laryngoscope found his right vocal cord was swelling and hyperemia. The routine blood test counted white blood cell as 31 x 10(9)/L, lymphocyte as 30. 84 x 10(9)/L while prolymphocyte could be seen with microscope. After that B-ultrasound scan gave spleen hypertrophy and multi-lymphatic-node enlargement. Peripheral blood flowcytometry and bone marrow biopsy finally diagnosed the man as actue myelocytic leukemia.

BACKGROUND:Although core decompression can contribute to the reconstruction of necrotic bone, its single use appears to have some deficiencies and cannot completely realize the reconstruction of the femoral head.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of arthroscopic core decompression with autologous bone marrow induction material combined with titanium rod in the repair of stage II femoral head necrosis
METHODS:A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data of 79 cases of stage II femoral head necrosis admitted at the South Branch of Tongchuan People’s Hospital from February 2011 to February 2013. According to the therapeutic methods, these cases were divided into control group (40 cases) and observation group (39 cases), and were given conventional core decompression and arthroscopic core decompression with autologous bone marrow induction material combined with titanium rod. Patients were fol owed up for 24 months, and the range of hip flexion and Harris scores on hip function and adverse events were observed and compared between two groups.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Al the 79 patients successful y completed the 24-month fol ow-up. By the last fol ow-up, the range of hip flexion and Harris score were significantly higher in the observation group than the control group (P<0.05). There was no failure case due to surgical material rejection. To sum up, arthroscopic core decompression with autologous bone marrow induction material combined with titanium rod is safe and effective for repair of stage II femoral head necrosis.

In the embryonic period, myosin regulatory light chain (MYL2) plays a pivotal role in the development and function of the heart. A large number of studies have previously confirmed that the mutation of MYL2 gene, also known as MLC2, confers intimate associations with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. MYL2 gene mutation impacts the structure and function of myosin, thereby leading to the occurrence and progression of hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathy as well as the following chronic heart failure. Importantly, MYL2 phosphorylation renders crucial effects in the processes of cardiac contraction, ventricular torsion and cardiac function.

Purpose To evaluate the correlation between acute pulmonary embolism (APE) and right ventricular parameters by multi-slice spiral computed tomography pulmonary angiogmphy (MSCTPA),and assess the severity and mortality of patients with APE.Materials and Methods The clinical and MSCTPA image data of APE patients from January 2012 to November 2015 was analyzed retrospectively.All the patients were divided into three groups according to the pulmonary embolism type and clinical prognosis:66 cases in mixed embolism group (25 cases of death,41 cases of survival);36 cases in peripheral embolism group,2 cases in centralembolism group.The CT post-processing software was used to measure thoracic aorta and main pulmonary artery inner diameter ratio (PA/AO),right ventricular diameter to left ventricular diameter ratio (RVD/LVD);right ventricular area to left ventricular area ratio (RVA/LVA) on axial four-chamber (4-CH) sections and the largest of maximum minor axis diameters on axial sections (RV/LV-LD).The difference of CT related right ventricular parameters among the mixed embolism groups,peripheral embolism and normal groups was compared.Results Statistical difference was found in right ventricular parameters (RVD/LVD,RV-LD/LV-LD,RVA/LVA) in mixed embolism death patients compared with the patients in other three groups (P＜0.05).There was significant difference of right ventricular parameters RVD/LVD,RVA/LVA in mixed pulmonary embolism survival patients compared with patients in peripheral pulmonary embolism and normal groups (P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference between peripheral APE patients and the control group in all RV and PA/AO parameters (P＞0.05).According to the result of ROC curve in mixed type embolism death patients,RVA/LVA was the best indicator of predicting early death (AUC=0.881),with 100.0％ sensitivity and 73.2％ specificity.Conclusion The right ventricular parameters by multislice CT pulmonary angiography can assess APE patient's condition and forecast their early mortality;and the clinical diagnosis accuracy of RVA/LVA is higher.
