Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy of a new drug for acute coronary syndrome (ACS), ticagrelor in treating the patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), and to compare the effect between ticagrelor and clopidogrel in order to obtain the prospective information of ticagrelor in clinical practice.
Methods: A total of 307 STEMI patients were divided into 2 groups, Treatment group, the patients received ticagrelor with aspirin, n=157 and Control group, the patients received clopidogrel with aspirin, n=150. With a period of treatment, the major adverse cardiac events (MACE), rate of thrombosis re-formation and routine blood test result were compared between 2 groups.
Results: Treatment group presented the better LVDD, LVEF, platelet level and ST-segment recovery than those in Control group, P<0.05 or P<0.01. Treatment group showed slightly higher rate of side effect such as dififcult breathing and bleeding, while those reaction did not affect the treatment or special management for the patients.
Conclusion: The clinical effect of ticagrelor is similar to clopidogre for improving the platelet level and cardiac function in STEMI patients, while the clinical advantage reported in abroad should be further studied.

Objective To explore the clinical diagnosis and treatment of cyclic vomiting syndrome in children.Methods Thirty children proved with cyclic vomiting syndrome admitted from January,1998 to January,2003 were analyzed retrospectively.Results Cyclic vomiting syndrome was most likely to occur in 3-12 years old.The male to female ratio was 3∶2.The clinical manifestations were recurrent vomiting.Twenty-one cases had inducements,while 9 cases had not inducements.It was safe and efficient that curing cyclic vomiting syndrome with cyprohetadine and amitriptyline.Conclusions If these children with cyclic vomiting syndrome are inefficient to treatment,excluding metabolizable diseases,gastrointestinal,neurological diseases,they may be diagnosed cyclic vomiting syndrome,and cured with cyprohetadine and amitriptyline.

Objective To discuss the pathogenesis,diagnosis and treatment of delayed traumatic intracerebral hematoma.Methods The clinic data of traumatic delayed intracranial hematoma patients in this hospital were retro- spectively analyzed.According to clinic observation and CT re-examination,47 cases were diagnosed as delayed trau- matic intracranial hematoma(45 cases by operative treatment,and the other 2 by conservative treatment).Results There were 21 cases of recovery,10 cases of slight disability,8 cases of severe disability,8 cases of death.The total mortality rate was 17 %.Conclusion Brain contusion,subarachnoid hemorrhage and skull base fracture were impor- tant factors of DTICH.Fine-observation and prompt CT re-examination offered excellent results for DTICH.

Objective To investigate the effects of aggressive dosing of atorvastatin on the expression of SOCS1 in CD4 + Tlymphocytes from patients with unstable angina pectoris during peri-operative period of PCI.Methods A cohort of 50 patients with unstable angina pectoris were randomized (random number) to give pretreatment with either an aggressive dose (80 mg/d,n =25) or a routine dose (20 mg/d,n =25)of atorvastatin.Circulating CD4 +T cells were subsequently obtained prior to PCI,and also 18 h to 24 hours after PCI,using a magnetic cell sorting system (MACS).Fluorescence-based quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to measure expressions of SOCSI mRNA in the isolated CD4 + Tlymphocytes,and western blot analysis was used to detect levels of SOCS1 protein.Serum levels of IFN-γwere quantified using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs).Results Compared with routine dose group,the expressions of SOCS1 mRNA and protein levels were dramatically increased and those were higher in aggressive dose group following PCI (P ＜ 0.05).In contrast,serum levels of IFN-γsignificantly increased following PCI in both groups,but it was higher in routine dose group than in aggressive dose group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Treatment with aggressive dosing of atorvastatin reduced the post-PCI myocardial inflammatory response in patients with unstable angina pectoris,possibly modulating by up-regulating SOCS1 expression in CD4 + Tlymphocytes.

Anxiety disorder is one of the most common mental disorders and seriously impairs the physical and mental health of patients. Due to the efficacy of acupuncture for tranquilization, acupuncture displays its unique advantage on the treatment of anxiety disorder, but the relevant biological mechanism has not been elaborated. The modern medicine study has proved that the heart and brain have their own independent natriuretic peptide (NP) system. The dysfunction of ANP and its receptor are closely related to the occurrence of anxiety disorder. The ANP acts on anti-anxiety. Hence, focusing on the three aspects, named the anti-anxiety effect of acupuncture based on its tranquilizing effect, the anti-anxiety effect of ANP and the positive regulation of acupuncture on NP, the mechanism on ANP and its receptor was explored in anti-anxiety with acupuncture based on tranquilizing effect, and the idea was put forward on that the anti-anxiety effect of acupuncture was possibly based on its action of tranquilization through regulating the ANP and its receptor. As a result, it is expected to provide the theoretic support for the mechanism study on anti-anxiety with acupuncture based on its tranquilizing effect.
