Objective To evaluate the safety and effect of percutaneous fenestration of intimal flap(FIF) and endovascular stent(ES) placement for aortic dissection. Methods Male patient, 54 years old. DeBakey Ⅲb aortic dissection, tear of intimal flap situated at the beginning of desconding aorta, developed to abdominal aorta and right iliac artery. The true lumen was 3 mm at narrowest locatation. Through femoral artery approach, percutaneous fenestration of intimal flap and ES placement are operated and four ES were placed. Results The blood flow of aortic true lumen and branches were resumed. The true lumen raised to 12 3 mm at the narrowest locatation. The clinical symptoms vanished. Conclusion Percutaneous fenestration and ES placement for aortic dissection feature little injure, high safety and effecacy. So, It is the first choice for certain aortic dissection.

Objective To study the damage effects and its mechanism of Helicobacter pylori(HP) on dopaminergie cell line SH-SY5Y in vitro.Methods The cellular survival rate,the level of cellular activated oxygen and the activity of mitochondrion respiratory chain complexes were measured in dopaminergic cell line SH-SY5Y after adding secretory components of HP(HP group),MPP+(PD group) and culture solution(control group).Results The cellular survival rates in the HP group and PD group were decreased,the cellular survival rate of high concentration HP subgroup was dramatically decreased than those in the middle and low concentration subgroups(all P

An investigation and analysis on the effect of current bilingual teaching has been done among the 2002rd seven-year program students by using questionnaire.The result can provide basic foundation for improving the quality of bilingual teaching.

With the advanced development of information technology, there is a huge impact on various industries for the arrival of big data. In the biomedical field, innovative genome sequencing technology enables low-cost, high-throughput, and high-speed to become a reality, which leads to an explosive growth in data and also appeared in an urgent need to process those massive biological information. High performance computing (HPC) along with effective methods is one of the best ways to deal with the problem of big data in biomedical field which could serve the biomedical development best. We discussed the issues faced in biomedical big data processing and concluded that the bioinformatics is an indispensable component of biomedical technologies.

Objective:To evaluate the role of the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG)patients. Methods: From 2004 to 2005,215 patients underwent CABG and there were 36 cases with LVEF0.40(normal LVEF group). Correlative data of the two groups were compared and analyzed statistically. Results: Compared with the normal EF group, the EuroSCORE of the low EF group was much higher (mean 6.4?1.7) and many more patients of the low EF group had concomitant moderate to severe mitral valve insufficiency and aneurysm that needed simultaneous surgical operation(55.6%).Two patients died in hospital(5.5%)in the low EF group whereas five patients in the normal EF group(2.8%, P

BACKGROUND: This study was undertaken to determine the prevalence of organ failure and its risk factors in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) . METHODS: A retrospective analysis was made of 186 patients with SAP who were had been hospitalized in the intensive care unit of Jinzhong First People's Hospital between March 2000 and October 2009. The patients met the diagnostic criteria of SAP set by the Surgical Society of the Chinese Medical Association in 2006. The variables collected included age, gender, etiology of SAP, the number of comorbidit, APACHEII score, contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) pancreatic necrosis, CT severity index (CTSI) , abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) , the number of organ failure, and the number of death. The prevalence and mortality of organ failure were calculated. The variables were analyzed by unconditional multivariate logistic regression to determine the independent risk factors for organ failure in SAP. RESULTS: Of 186 patients, 96 had organ failure. In the 96 patients, 47 died. There was a significant association among the prevalence of organ failure and age, the number of comorbidity, APACHEII score, CECT pancreatic necrosis, CTSI, and ACS. An increase in age, the number of comorbidity, APACHEII score, CECT pancreatic necrosis were correlated with increased number of organ failure. Age, the number of comorbidity, APACHEII score, CECT pancreatic necrosis, CTSI and ACS were assessed by unconditional multivariate logistic regression. CONCLUSIONS: Organ failure occurred in 51.6％ of the 186 patients with SAP. The mortality of SAP with organ failure was 49.0％. Age, the number of comorbidity, APACHEII score, CECT pancreatic necrosis, CTSI and ACS are independent risk factors of organ failure.

AIMTo establish an assay method for the determination of three kinds of biologically active components, five compounds (emodin, chrysophanol, baicalin, wogonin and berberine hydrochloride) simultaneously in Sanhuang tablets.

METHODSHPLC was carried out, using a C18 column (150 mm x4. 6 mm ID, 5 microm) set at 30 degrees C, acetonitrile-0.02 mol x L(-1) acetic ammonium (adjusted pH to 3. 50 with acetic acid glacial) as mobile phase (using gradient) with flowing rate 1. 00 mL x min(-1) and detected at 270 nm.

RESULTSThe calibration curve of emodin was linear from 0.020 7 microg to 0.207 microg with r = 0.999 9, the average recovery was 99.65% with RSD 1.25%. The calibration curve of chrysophanol was linear from 0.052 microg to 0.52 microg with r = 0.999 9, and the average recovery was 100.36% with RSD 0.96%. The calibration curve of baicalin was linear from 0.250 5 microg to 2.505 microg with r =0.999 8, and the average recovery was 100.22% with RSD 1.29%. The calibration curve of wogonin was linear from 0.047 6 microg to 0.476 microg with r = 0.999 9, and the average recovery was 98.97% with RSD 1.20%. The calibration curve of berberine hydrochloride was linear from 0.053 12 microg to 0.531 2 microg with r = 0.999 5, and the average recovery was 96.02% with RSD 2.02%. The established method had also been used in the determination of the 5 compounds in 10 different batches of Sanhuang tablets.

CONCLUSIONThis method was proved to be accurate and quick, and can be used for the quality control of the preparation all-around.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) gene modified mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs-bFGF)on cerebral isehemia in rats.Methods MSCs or MSCs-bFGF were transplanted into rat models of focal cerebral ischemia by intravenous injection.The neurological deficits and infarction volumes were evaluated,and the survival rate and differentiation of grafted MSCs were observed by double immunofiuoreseent labeling.Results In the rat cerebral ischemic model, both MSCs and MSCs-bFGF showed protective effect on the rats in comparison with control group.However, the protective effect was more significant in MSCs-bFGF group.Double immunofluorescent staining showed the number of BrdU-labeled and NeuN co-expression cells in MSCs-bFGF treated animals(127.40?7.43 and 11.20?3.09)were much more than in those of MSCs treated animals.While there was no significant difference between MSCs-bFGF and MSCs group in the number of GFAP co-expression cells.Conclusion MSCs transplantation has protective effect on cerebral ischemia in rats.Basic fibroblast growth factor gene modified MSCs is more effective than MSCs in neuroproteetion.
