Objective To investigate the association between the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP)in-308 loci of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)gene promoter region and chronic hepatitis B (CHB).Methods Genotypes of-308 loci of the TNF-αpromoter were examined by the polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP)in 142 patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB group)and 150 healthy controls (HC group).The indexes for evalua-ting the curative effect were the ALT,AST,HBeAg,HBV-DNA and the viral load weight,HBV-LP and HBV-PreS1,mean-while,the correlations between related indexes and SNP in TNF-α308 loci were explored as well.Results There was no sta-tistical significance in frequency distribution difference of the genotypes and alleles of-308 loci between CHC and HC groups (P>0.05),the protective factors of TNF-α308 allele A may be not associated with CHB (OR=1.529,OR95%CI:0.872~2.684).There was no association between TNF-αgene promoter-308G/A polymorphism and the positive rates of AST, ALT,HBV-LP and HBV-PreS1 (P>0.05),however,TNF-α-308G/A polymorphism associates with the positive rates of HBeAg and HBV-DNA,and A-allele of 308 loci may increase the risk of HBeAg and HBV-DNA positive expression (HBeAg:OR=3.256,OR95%CI=1.105~9.594;HBV-DNA:OR=2.847,OR95%CI=1.059~7.655).Furthermore,A-allele compared with Gallele,statistically significant differences were observed in the certain HBVDNA viral load range of104~107 copies/ml (P <005).Conclusion TNFαgene promoter308G/A polymorphism would not be associated withCHB,but the TNFα308 gene G mutation of Aallele,which was associated with HBVDNA viral load,may be the susceptible factors of HBV infection.

PurposeTo explore the value of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) monitoring mini-incision transthoracic occlusion of ventricular septal defect (VSD) with asymmetric ventricular defects occlude in preoperative selection of patients, intraoperative guidance monitoring and postoperative evaluation.Materials and MethodsForty-five cases of VSD undertook mini-incision transthoracic occlusion with asymmetric ventricular defects occlude were enrolled, their clinical data was analyzed retrospectively, preoperative transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) was applied for choosing appropriate cases. During surgery, TEE was employed for evaluating the VSD and in which perimembranous VSD was found in 21 cases, intracristal VSD in 15 cases and subpulmonic VSD in 9 cases, suitable eccentric type occluders were chosen, guide occluder was placed, and the occlusion effect was evaluated right after operation.ResultsThe procedures were completed successfully in 42 cases, with a successful rate of 93.3%, of which 21 cases had perimembranous VSD, 15 cases had intracristal VSD, and 6 cases had subpulmonic VSD. The diameter of the VSD ranged from 3 to 7 mm, averaging (4.5±0.7) mm, the diameter of occluders ranged from 4 to 8 mm, averaging (5.7±1.2) mm, there was a good positive correlation between size of VSD and occlude (r=0.87,P<0.05). All patients received follow-ups from 3 months to 24 months after operation, all the occluders located normally, with no more than mildly residual shunt, valve regurgitation or severe arrhythmia discovered.ConclusionMini-incision transthoracic occlusion of ventricular septal defect (VSD) with asymmetric ventricular defects occlude has high success rates, minimal injury, and lower complication rate. TEE can play a vital role by improving the success rate and safety of surgery.

AIM: To discuss the mechanism of action of Zhiyu Granules on treating diabetic peripheral neuritis. METHODS: The model of diabetic peripheral neuritis in mice was induced by streptozotocin.The effect of Zhiyu Granules on the contents of sciatic nerve inositol in model mice through ELSD(evaporative light scattering detector) was examined,and the activity of Na~+-K~+ pump in sciatic nerve was measured,and the activity of SOD and the contents of MDA in erythrocytes were detected,and the ultrastructures of sciatic nerve,pancreas and kidney in model mice were observed by electric microscope. RESULTS: Zhiyu Granules could increase the contents of sciatic nerve inositol in model rats,and enhance the activity of Na~+-K~+ pump,and improve the ultrastructures of sciatic nerve and pancreas cell.Zhiyu Granules couldn't improve the ultrastructure of renal corpuscles,or affect the activity of SOD and the contents of MDA in erythrocytes of model mice yet. CONCLUSION: Zhiyu Granules is effective in clinical treatment of diabetic peripheral neuritis.
