Structural heart disease includes congenital cardiovascular structural abnormalities, valvular heart disease and cardiomyopathy, which shows the common features of cardiac anatomical structure and hemodynamic abnormalities, especially anatomical abnormalities. Echocardiography, especially three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound, is good at displaying anatomical structure and blood flow abnormalities. As a non-invasive method of examination, it has advantage in the evaluation of such heart diseases. In recent years, the gradual rise of 3D printing technology can make physical printing, and the printed heart model can stereoscopically display abnormal state of heart diseases. Ultrasound combined with 3D printing technology may provide more intuitive and accurate information for the assessment of structural heart disease.

Background and purpose:PARP-1 is closely related to malignant tumors. This study aimed to ex-plore the clinical significance of serum level of PARP-1 protein in onset and progression of gastric cancer.Methods:The serum samples from 145 patients with gastric cancer and 112 healthy check-up cases were collected. The serumHP spec-ificity IgA and PARP-1 protein levels were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method. The correlation of serum PARP-1 protein levels with clinical characteristics of gastric cancer was analyzed.Results:Compared with healthy people, serum PARP-1 protein levels were significantly higher in gastric cancer patients [(407±139) pg/mLvs(258±120) pg/mL,P=0.014). Serum PARP-1 protein levels were significantly higher inHp(+) gastric cancer patients than those in patients withHp (-) (P<0.001). Serum PARP-1 protein levels were positively correlated with family gastric cancer history (P=0.033) and alcohol intake history (P=0.015) in gastric cancer patients. Compared with serum protein PARP-1 negative patients, PARP-1 protein positive patients had a significantly shorter cancer-free survival (P=0.011). However serum PARP-1 protein level was not found to be an independent risk factor for the overall survival of gastric cancer patients using multivariate COX regression.Conclusion:High expression of serum PARP-1 protein may be involved in the pathogenesis and progression of gastric cancer. Inhibition of PARP-1 may be potential new target for the treatment of gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the regulatory effects and possible mechanisms of autophagy induction and bactericidal activity in muring bone marrow derived macrophages ( BMDMs) . Methods Murine BMDMs were isolated and cultured in vitro. Then standard strain of E. coli was used to infect BMDMs and cellular autophagy levels and AMPK activation were detected. We next modulated functions of AMPK by pretreating cells with the specific agonist or antagonist of AMPK. Then cellular AMPK activation, autophagy levels and bactericidal activity were observed after E. coli infection. Results In E. coli infected BMDMs,autophagy related molecules like LC3B and Beclin1 were upregu-lated,accompanied with elevated LC3Ⅱ/Ⅰratio. Phosphorylation of AMPK was also upregulated by E. coli treatment. Enhanced AMPK activi-ty by its agonist leads to increased cellular autophagy and bactericidal activity,whereas inhibition of AMPK by its suppressor downregulated autophagy and dampened bactericidal activity. Conclusion AMPK and its related signaling pathway is required for anti-bacterial response in macrophage,which is dependent on its function in upregulating autophagy related molecules and inducing autophagy.
