Objective To survey the knowledge requested by patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) after stent implantation.Methods A survey on CAD and stent-related knowledge requested by CAD patients with stent implantation was conducted with a self-designed questionnaire from September 2013 to November 2013.Total 362 patients (235 males and 127 females) aged (67 ± 12) years participated in the survey in Yuetan Community Health Service Center and Fuxing Hospital in Beijing.Open questions and heuristic questions were used together during the survey.Results The knowledge requested by patients were:diet management(255,70.4%),side effects of medication(241,66.6%),management of physical activity (221,61.0%),prevention of CAD(181,50.0%),withdrawal of medication(176,48.6%),the life of stents (168,46.4%),post-operation check-up items (162,44.8%),the causes of CAD (156,43.1%)and drug mechanisms(134,37.0%).Patients with stent implantation less than one year requested more knowledge about the cause of CAD (x2 =37.4,P < 0.001),life-time of stent (x2 =39.9,P <0.001),prevention of CAD (x2 =13.4,P =0.001),post-operation check-up items (x2 =21.2,P =0.001) and requested less knowledge about withdrawal of medication (x2 =9.56,P =0.008),diet management (x2 =6.49,P =0.04) than those with more than one year.Patients aged < 70 years requested more knowledge about the cause of CAD (x2 =31.6,P < 0.001),prevention of CAD (x2 =9.99,P =0.007),life-time of stent (x2 =79.1,P < 0.001),side effects of medication (x2 =7.84,P =0.02) than patients aged > 70 years.Patients with education higher than junior high school requested more knowledge about the cause of CAD (x2 =26.6,P < 0.001),prevention of CAD (x2 =14.4,P =0.001) and life-time of stents (x2 =7.82,P =0.02) than those with education lower than junior high school.Patients with education higher than junior college requested more knowledge about the cause of CAD (x2 =26.6,P < 0.001) and post-operation check-up items (x2 =10.7,P =0.005) than those with education lower than junior college.Conclusion Some factors affect the knowledge requested by patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) after stent implantation,which should be considered in health education for CAD patients.

Objective To explore the effects of combining tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-αt) inhibitor with adenosine A2b receptor antagonist CVT-6883 on asthmatic lung irflammation in mice.Methods A total of 40 female Balb/c mice were evenly randomized into 5 groups,including normal control group,asthma group,CVT-6883 group,CVT-6883 + etanercept group,and etanercept group.The pathological changes in the lungs were determined and the number of white blood cells(WBC) and eosinophil(EOS) in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) was counted by cell count in each group.The levels of TNF-α in BALF were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The expression of adenosine A2b receptor mRNA in the lung tissues were measured by reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results 1.The lung tissue in asthma group,dyed by HE,was found to have a large number of airway inflammatory cell infiltration,thickening of the bronchial mucosa,the alveolar septa widened and fracture.In the CVT-6883,CVT-6883 + etanercept and etanercept group,the pathological changes were relieved.2.The WBC and EOS counts in BALF of the asthma group[(413.8 ±5.8)/L,(139.3 ± 1.4)/L] were higher than those of the normal control group [(24.0 ± 1.3)/L,(1.8 ± 0.1)/L,P < 0.05].The WBC and EOS counts of the CVT-6883 group[(111.5 ±3.8)/L,(3.3 ±0.1)/L],the etanercept group + the CVT-6883 group[(173.8 ±3.9)/L,(10.4 ± 0.2)/L],and the etanercept group[(138.4 ± 3.0)/L,(4.1 ± 0.1)/L] were lower than those of the asthma group (P <0.05).3.Compared with the control group(100.4 ± 5.7) ng/L,the TNF-α concentration of the asthma group (145.2 ± 8.8) ng/L was significantly higher (P < 0.05) ; the TNF-α concentration of CVT-6883 group (130.9 ± 5.9) ng/L,CVT-6883 + etanercept group(115.7 ± 8.2) ng/L and the etanercept group(122.0 ± 8.7) ng/L,were significantly decreased compared with asthma group (P < 0.05).4.In asthma group (8.9 ± 1.1) compared with the control group(0.6 ± 0.2),the A2bAR (adenosine A2b receptor) mRNA expression was upregulated (P < 0.05) ; CVT-6883 group(1.6 ±0,3),CVT-6883 + etanercept group(2.5 ±0.6) and the etanercept group(5.3 ±0.4),the A2bAR(adenosine A2b receptor) mRNA expression was significantly decreased compared with asthma group (all P <0,05).Conclusion Combination of TNF-α inhibitor with adenosine A2b receptor antagonist can reduce asthmatic lung inflammation.

Objective To study the severity of systemic inflammatory response to type B epidemic encephalitis and blood tumor necrosis factor complicated with respiratory failure.Methods Fourteen children with type B epidemic encephalitis were divided into two groups;6 cases in group one with respiratory failure were given mechanical ventilation and the other 8 cases had normal respiration.Breat-hing pattern,respiratory rate,GCS scores,daily dosage of sedatives were observed before endotracheal intubation;while heart rate,temperature,WBC,CRP,TNF were measured.Results Patients in respiratory failure group were given a small dosage of Luminal;there was no significant difference in GCS between two groups treated with compound Wintermin.The heart rate,temperature,WBC,CRP,TNF levels in respiratory failure group were significantly higher than those in normal respiratory group.Conclusions The severity of systemic inflammatory response is more severe in epidemic type B encephalitis with respiratory failure than the controls.Significant increase in blood TNF may be an important factors to cause peripheral respiratory failure.
