OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of Ningxintong Granule (NXTG) on left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) of qi-deficiency and blood-stasis syndrome in Chinese medicine.

METHODSSeventy-six CHD patients with LVDD of qi-deficiency blood-stasis syndrome were randomized into two groups. The 36 patients in the control group were treated by Western medical conventional treatment alone, and 40 patients in the treated group were treated by NXTG (Consisting of milk vetch root, pueraria root, ligustici, ilex-puhesceus, manchurian wildginger, 10 g in each package) and Western medical conventional treatment in combination, one package each time, thrice daily, 4 weeks as one therapeutic course. The left ventricular function (LVF) of all patients (including Emas, Amas, E/A, DT and IVRT) was evaluated by Doppler echocardiography before and after treatment, and the changes of clinical effectiveness and TCM syndrome effectiveness were observed.

RESULTSCompared with the control group after treatment, Emas, E/A increased, while Amas, DT, IVRT decreased showing statistical difference (P < 0.05). The therapeutic effects in the treated group were significantly better (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONNXTG with qi-enriching and blood-activating actions shows favorable effect in treating CHD patients with LVDD.

Infected pancreatic necrosis is a fatal complication of severe acute pancreatitis ( SAP),while traditional laparotomy has many disadvantages,such as great trauma and many complications,in recent years,minimally invasive treatment has got great progress in clearing the necrotic tissue of pancreas,but its drainage effect is not optimal.From January 2010 to December 2011,19 patients with infected pancreatic necrosis complicated by SAP who were admitted to the Nanjing General Hospital of Nanjing Military Area were implemented computed tomography or ultrasound-guided Seldinger puncture.Along the puncture needle,a guide wire was inserted into the necrotic tissue,and then the sinus was expanded,in which a tube was placed for negative pressure irrigation and drainage.By continuous postoperative negative pressure irrigation and drainage,the necrotic tissue gradually dropped off and disappeared in 12 patients,and the other 7 patients were performed endoscopic necrotic tissue removal and drainage along the sinus.Systemic symptons of infection obviously improved in all of the 19 patients,and no organ dysfunction or complications occurred.Finally,16 patients were cured and 3 patients died.Continuous percutaneous negative pressure irrigation and drainage combined with the endoscopic necrotic tissue removal could become an important choice to treat the infected pancreatic necrosis.

Objective To investigate the management of retroperitoneal infected necrotic tissues in pelvic cavity in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods The clinical data of 5 patients with SAP complicated with retroperitoneal infected necrotic tissue in the pelvic carvity who were admitted to the General Hospital of Nanjing Military Area from December 2009 to February 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.Systemic comprehensive treatement combined with local management were applied to all the patients.Results Systemic comprehensive treatment:all the 5 patients were treated by enteral nutrition,3 by mechanical ventilation and 3 by continuous blood purification.All the retroperitoneal infected necrotic tissues in the pelvic carvity were treated by computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous catheter drainage,and then the patients were converted to open surgery for further drainage.Four patients had complication of infected pancreatic necrosis bleeding,and they were treated by arterial embolism and (or) sandwich therapy.Local management:5 patients with retroperitoneal infected necrotic tissues received CT-guided percutaneous catheter drainage via buttocks.The average time of puncturation after illness was 38.4 days,and the average CT density of infected necrotic tissue was 24.4 Hu (20-28 Hu).Catheterization was successfully done in the open surgery for all the 5 patients,and the average time of abdominal drainage was 21 days.The body temperature and white blood cell count were decreased after puncturation.The average duration of intensive care unite stay,the average time of hospital stay and the average cost of hospitalization were (47 ± 20 )days,(88 ±34 )days and (186 342 ± 15 467 )yuan.All the patients were followed up till May 2012,no recurrece of the retroperitoneal infected necrotic tissue was detected.Conclusion CT-guided percutaneous catheter drainage via buttocks is effective for the treatment of retroperitoneal infected necrotic tissue in the pelvic cavity in SAP patients.

Objective To analyze the correlation between the TCM diagnosis and treatment data to provide support for scientific research and clinical treatment.Methods The characteristics of TCM diagnosis and treatment data were analyzed.An improved Apriori algorithm with grouping association was put forward,and association analysis on the data from the encephalopathy database of some hospital was carried out to verify the feasibility of the algorithm.Results Grouped operation was executed for association properties to reduce the association between noncorrelated data,so that the efficiency of the algorithm was enhanced greatly.Conclusion Improved Apriori algorithm with grouping association consumes shorter time than the classical one,and thus is worthy promoting in TCM diagnosis and treatment data application.

Objective To observe the clinical effectiveness of percutaneous catheter drainage ( PCD ) and PCD + negative pressure irrigation ( PCD + NPI ) for treatment of severe acute pancreatitis ( SAP ) patients with infective pancreatic necrosis (IPN).Methods Data of 71 IPN patients admitted from January 2010 to December 2011 were included and retrospectively analyzed.They were divided into two groups by the different treatment choices:PCD group (52 patients) and PCD + NPI group (19 patients).In PCD group,percutaneous pig-tail drainage catheter was inserted for intermittent IPN drainage,and in PCD + NPI group,negative pressure irrigation catheter was inserted for continuous IPN drainage.The indication for laparotomy surgery was no improvement after PCD or PCD + NPI for 3 days,or septic shock,abdominal cavity bleeding,digestive tract fistula occurred,the area of IPN decreased less than 1/2.Results The surgery rate of PCD +NPI group was 15.8％,which were significantly lower than that in PCD group (48.1％,P ＜0.05).7(36.8％ ) patients in PCD + NPI group received endoscopic drainage,which were significantly higher than that in PCD (0,P ＜0.05).The time interval between initial tube placement and operation in the PCD + NPI group was (22 ± 11 ) d,which were significantly longer than that in PCD group [ ( 10 ± 6 ) d,P ＜ 0.05 ].The difference of mean session and number of tube placement,number of laparotomy surgery,complications of laparotomy surgery in the two groups was not statistically significant.The mortality rate in the PCD + NPI group was 15.8％,which was not significantly higher than that in PCD group ( 13.5％ ).The ICU days,length of hospital stay and hospital costs in PCD + NPI group were lower than those in the PCD group,but the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant.Conclusions PCD + NPI can effectively reduce operation rate for patients with infective pancreatic necrosis.

The expression of cDNA encoding Tachyleus auti-lipoposaccharide (LPS) factor, which is of interest for use as a potential inhibitor of the common core subunit of Gram-negative bacterial endotoxin. First, the TALF gene was inserted into expression vectors pGEX-4T-2, pET22b and pET28a to construct recombinant expression plasmids. The recombinant plasmids were transformed to E. coli BL21 (DE3) and the expression of TALF was examined. Results show that TALF in pET22b and pET28a vectors can't be expressed. Only the fusion protein GST-TALF was expressed in E. coli BL21 existing as inclusion bodies. From 1 liter of culture, about 4mg of fusion protein GST-TALF with 91% purity was finally obtained. No apparent bactericidal activity and LPS neutralizing activity of the fusion protein GST-TALF were found. After digested with thrombin, the fusion protein GST-TALF exhibited strong bactericidal activity and LPS neutralizing activity.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and acute massive pulmonary embolism can be characterized by no pulse electrical activity. Patients of cardiac arrest (CA) with no pulse electrical activity have a high mortality rate before the cause was corrected. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), as a kind of artificial heart-lung support organ, provides treatment for CA patients. A case of massive pulmonary embolism similar to AMI was treated in the Third Central Hospital of Tianjin, who received interventional thrombolysis assisted by ECMO. Through the review of the overall development of the case, we aim to broaden the diagnosis and treatment of CA patients with no pulse electrical activity, and to improve the understanding of the complications secondary to ECMO.
