Objective To detect the strain features of regional wall abnormalities in patients with coronary artery disease during each diastolic period, and its possibility to evaluate regional left ventricular cardiocyte viability and diastolic function.Methods 54 patients with anterior myocardial infarction (MI group) and 78 normal subjects (NOR group) underwent Doppler tissue imaging, which were performed in 2-chamber-view by strain curves synchronously.Results In the NOR group, strain value of 66 cases (84.62%) showed an gradually increasing negative value from the apex to base to middle of left ventricle, while in the MI group, there were 9 cases (16.67%) with such a trend. IR phase: in the NOR group, 564 segments (90.38%) were upward wave bands, but in the MI group, there were 123 segments (28.47%) having such waves ( P<0.05). RF phase: in the NOR group, 576 segments (92.31%) were upward and steep wave bands, but in the MI group, the number of upward waves were obviously less (102 segments,23.61%) ( P<0.01). SF period: compared with the NOR group, which was horizontal, the MI group had upward wave bands ( P<0.05).Conclusion Regional myocardial ischemia and infarction can cause significant regional diastolic wall abnormalities of strain value in active diastolic phase. Regional diastolic wall motion abnormalities can be evaluated quantitatively and synchronously with high sensitivity by strain curve which has the potential value in cardiocyte viability and diastolic function.

SW872 preadipocytes were cultured and induced to differentiate by oleic acid in vitro.The levels of adiponectin and its receptors (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2) mRNA were measured by semiquantitative RT- PCR.The concentration of adiponectin in the culture medium was assayed by ELISA.The results showed that rhIL- 6 could inhibit adiponectin,AdipoR1 mRNA expressions and adiponectin secretion in SW872 adipocytes in a time- and dose-dependent manner,but did not influence adipoR2 mRNA expression.

OBJECTIVETo compare the efficacy differences between fire needling therapy and oxycycline tablets for the treatment of moderate to severe acne vulgaris.

METHODSSixty cases of moderate to severe acne vulgaris were randomly divided into a fire needling group and a medication group, 30 cases in each one. The pricking method of fire needling at Ashi points around damaged skin was applied in the fire needling group, once every five days for totally 4 times. The oral administration of oxycycline tablets, 100 mg, was applied in the medication group, twice daily for 20 days, also external application of adapalene gel before sleep was adopted. The fading time of skin damage, including papule, pustule, nodule and cyst in the two groups was recorded and clinical efficacy was compared. After the treatment, two-month follow-up was performed to observe the recurrence rate in the two groups.

RESULTSThe curative rate was 69.0% (20/29) in the fire needling group, which was statistically different from 40.0% (12/30) in the medication group (P < 0.05). The fading time of each type of skin damage in the fire needling group was shorter than that in the medication group [papule: (2.67 +/- 0.66) d vs (4.36 +/- 0.61) d; pustule: (2.47 +/- 0.57) d vs (4.27 +/- 0.55) d; nodule: (7.76 +/- 1.06) d vs (9.88-1.30) d; cyst: (11.81 +/- 1.54) d vs (14.79 +/- 0.89) d, all P < 0.05]. The recurrence rate was 46.4% (13/28) in the fire needling group, which was not significantly different from 44.0% (11/24) in the medication group (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe acne vulgaris could be fast and effectively treated by fire needling therapy, which has shorter fading time than oxycycline tablets. However, the preventive effect is not different between the two theraies.

The specific functions, stimulating methods and ranges of clinical application of Renying (ST 9) are explored. Because Renying (ST 9) is located in the neck which is a dangerous area, it is perilous if the acupoint is stimulated, so it is mostly forbidden in the past dynasties. In recent years, the main stimulating methods for Renying (ST 9) include acupuncture and press. The keys of acupuncture are to apply correct technique of needle insertion and control the depth and direction of needle. The keys of press are focused on strength and time of press. Renying (ST 9) is effective for vertigo, palpitation, asthma, hemiplegia, aphasia, hysteria, acute attack of pain, hyperplasia of mammary, continuous hiccup, disorder of throat and so on. As long as the acupoint location is accurate, manipulation is careful and stimulating method is correct, not only the safety could be guaranteed, but also the function can be well-played in clinical application.

Objective To establish a simple and rapid method for the extraction and detection of residual acetochlor and atrazine in environment. Methods Acetochlor and atrazine in environment were extracted and enriched efficiently by using automatic solid phase extraction system. The sample concentrations were determined by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy with electron impact ionization and multipolar mass spectra Msn. Results The recovery rates and RSDs of the method were 79.2%-95.1% and 1.73%-8.31% respectively. The detection limit of acetochlor in water and soil were 0.1 ?g/L and 0.005 mg/kg respectively. The detection limit of atrazine in water and soil were 0.05 ?g/L and 0.002 5 mg/kg respectively. Linear range was 0-5 ?g/ml. Conclusion The SPE-GC-MS method can be used to determine acetochlor and atrazine in environment.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of detecting the mutation of IDH1 in glioma patients by high resolution melting(HRM) curve analysis.Methods The gene mutation of IDH1 was detected by HRM method in 9 surgical resection paraffin specimens of glioma,and the result was verified by gene sequencing.Results 6 cases of R132H(CGT ＞ CAT) mutation and 1 case of R132C(CGT ＞ TGT) mutation were found by HRM method.The resluts of direct gene sequencing were consistent with HRM method.Conclusion The HRM method in detecting IDH1 mutation is more efficient and convenient than direct sequencing.Moreover,it has advantages of low-cost and suitable for clinical test.

ObjectiveTo summarize the means of prevention and treatment for early complications (in the first month) of partial live small bowel transplantation.MethodsThrombus of anastomosis blood vessel, bleeding, infection, rejection, dysfunction of transplantated bowel were the main complications in the first month after operation, which should be paied more attention to. ResultsFour patients suffered acute rejection, respiratory tract infection, dysfunction of transplantated bowel in first month after operation. After accurately treating, all the complications were cured. The function of transplantated bowels were well.
