Objective To evaluate long-term outcome of simultaneous kissing sirolimus-eluting stent (SKS) technique versus single sirolimus-eluting stent (SSS) technique for percutaneous treatment of true coronary bifurcation lesions in large-size vessels.Methods This randomized study assigned 190 patients with a coronary bifurcation lesion to simultaneous kissing stenting (SKS) in both main and side branches and 190 patients to main vessel stenting only (SSS).The endpoints included restenosis,death,non-fatal myocardial infarction,target-lesion revascularization (TLR),stent thrombosis,success rate of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and the operation duration.Results During 1-year follow-up,the SKS group and the SSS group had similar incidences of overall re stenosis [30 ( 15.8 ％ ) vs.24 ( 15.2 ％ ),x2=0.000,P＜0.05],mainbranch restenosis [20 ( 10.5％ ) vs.16 ( 10.1％ ),x2=0.003,P ＞ 0.05];side-branch restenosis [13 ( 6.8％ )vs.23 ( 14.6％ );x2=4.73,P＜0.05];death [2 ( 1.1％ ) vs.1 ( 0.6％ ),x2=0.026,P ＞ 0.05],non-fatal myocardial infarction [4 (2.1％ ) vs.2 ( 1.3％ ),x2=0.034,P ＞ 0.05],TLR [23 ( 12.1％ ) vs.20 ( 12.7％ ),x2=0.000,P ＞ 0.05] and stent thrombosis [4 (2.1％ ) vs.2 ( 1.3 ％ ),x2=0.034,P ＞ 0.05] and a shorter operation duration[(20 ± 8) min vs.(45 ± 9) min,t=1.98,P＜0.05] than the SSS group.Conclusion For true coronary bifurcation lesions in large-size vessels,SKS and SSS have similar long-term outcomes.The SKS group has a higher success rate of PCI and shorter operation duration.

Objective:To establish the Sunitinib-resistant model GIST882-Rs.Methods:The intermittent concentration gradient doubling method was used to get Sunitinib-resistant cell line GIST 882-Rs. Changes of cell morphology were observed and compared under the opticalm icroscopy. Changes of cell cycle were assayed and compared by using flow cytometer. The growth curvature , half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) were calculated by using cell counting kit (CCK8) assay.Results:Significant changes occurred in the morphologic profiles, such as epithelioid shape, the increased ratio of nucleolus to cytoplasm, emerging multinucleated cel1 and increase of granule sub stances. IC50 for GIST882 and GIST 882-Rs were(127.50 ± 2.15) μmol and (23.98 ± 1.85) μmol, and there were significant differences ( P < 0.05). The resistance index of GIST882-Rs to Sunitinib was 5.30 fold of GIST882 cells. The cell cycle of GIST882 and GIST882- Rs was respectively 52.51% and 39.87% in S phase 25.22% and 32.32% in G 0/G 1 phase. Conclusions:The sensitivity of GIST 882-Rs to Sunitinib treatment is decreased significantly.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the molecular characteristics of a ABO subgroup. METHODS: The ABO phenotype was determined with the tube method. Exons of the ABO gene were analyzed by Sanger sequencing, and haplotypes of exons 6 and 7 were analyzed by cloning sequencing.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of aortic dissection (AD) and emergency treatments. Methods Data from 784 patients with aortic dissection were collected in the Department of Emergency from January 2000 through December 2009. A retrospective analysis was carried out to determine the survival rate, mortality rate and treatment efficiency. Results Pain was the most common onset symptom (77.7% , 609/784). The majority of patients (86.5%) had essential hypertension (678/784). All the patients with preoperative diagnosis of aortic dissection underwent emergency medical intervention by internists resulting in 81.5% survival rate (639/784) and 18.5% mortality rate (145/784). There were 157 patients without improvement (20.0% ) and the total efficiency rate was (83. 1% ). The efficiency rate of conventional treatment was 76.4% , while the efficiency rate of triple four-procedure treatment was 89. 8% (P<0.05). Of them, 139 patients (17. 7% ) died in the hospital. Among them,. 26 patients died within 24 hours (18.4% ) and 47 cases died within 48 hours (33. 8% ) and 66 patients died within 72 hours (47.2% ). There were 92 patients who refused treatments after diagnosis, and among them, 81 patients died within 72 hours (88.04% ). The difference in mortality rate between two groups was significant (P<0.05). Conclusions The diagnosis of aortic dissection depends on detailed history, physical examination and CT or MRI imaging. Analgesia, sedation and control of blood pressure are essential for emergency treatments. Early diagnosis and effective emergency treatments are the critical strategy for the early surgical intervention and time window for further treatment to improve the survival rate of AD.

AIM:To investigate the serum miRNA-101 expression level in patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM),and to evaluate the clinical implications of miRNA-101 expression level variation.METHODS:qRT-PCR was used to determine the serum miRNA-101 expression level.Pearson correlation analysis was performed to observe the relationship between two variables.Multiple stepwise linear regression analysis was used to assess the association of serum miRNA-101 level and other parameters.RESULTS:Serum miRNA-101 level in patients with newly diagnosed T2DM was significantly higher than that in control subjects (P ＜ 0.05).The serum level of miRNA-101 was positively correlated with the glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c,P ＜0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the circulating miRNA-101 was in significant positive correlation with HbA1c (P ＜ 0.05) after adjustment for age,sex and body weight.CONCLUSION:Enhanced circulating miRNA-101 level in newly diagnosed T2DM patients may be associated with elevation of HbA1 c.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: The past decades have seen increasing incidence and prevalence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in China. This article aimed to summarize the current status and characteristics of surgical management for IBD in China. METHODS: We searched PubMed, Embase, and Chinese databases from January 1, 1990 to July 1, 2014 for all relevant studies on the surgical treatment IBD in China. Eligible studies with sufficient defined variables were further reviewed for primary and secondary outcome measures. RESULTS: A total of 74 studies comprising 2,007 subjects with Crohn's disease (CD) and 1,085 subjects with ulcerative colitis (UC) were included. The percentage of CD patients misdiagnosed before surgery, including misdiagnosis as appendicitis or UC, was 50.8%±30.9% (578/1,268). The overall postoperative complication rate was 22.3%±13.0% (267/1,501). For studies of UC, the overall postoperative complication rate was 22.2%±27.9% (176/725). In large research centers (n>50 surgical cases), the rates of emergency operations for CD (P=0.032) and in-hospital mortalities resulting from both CD and UC were much lower than those in smaller research centers (n≤50 surgical cases) (P=0.026 and P <0.001, respectively). Regarding the changes in CD and UC surgery over time, postoperative complications (P=0.045 for CD; P=0.020 for UC) and postoperative in-hospital mortality (P=0.0002 for CD; P=0.0160 for UC) both significantly improved after the year 2010. CONCLUSIONS: The surgical management of IBD in China has improved over time. However, the rates of misdiagnosis and postoperative complications over the past two decades have remained high. Large research centers were found to have relatively better capacity for surgical management than the smaller ones. Higher quality prospective studies are needed in China.

Background::Ainuovirine (ANV) is a new generation of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1 infection. This study aimed to evaluate the population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) profile and exposure-response relationship of ANV among people living with HIV.Methods::Plasma concentration-time data from phase 1 and phase 3 clinical trials of ANV were pooled for developing the PopPK model. Exposure estimates obtained from the final model were used in exposure-response analysis for virologic responses and safety responses.Results::ANV exhibited a nonlinear pharmacokinetic profile, which was best described by a two-compartment model with first-order elimination. There were no significant covariates correlated to the pharmacokinetic parameters of ANV. The PopPK parameter estimate (relative standard error [%]) for clearance adjusted for bioavailability (CL/F) was 6.46 (15.00) L/h, and the clearance of ANV increased after multiple doses. The exposure-response model revealed no significant correlation between the virologic response (HIV-RNA <50 copies/mL) at 48 weeks and the exposure, but the incidence of adverse events increased with the increasing exposure ( P value of steady-state trough concentration and area under the steady-state curve were 0.0177 and 0.0141, respectively). Conclusions::Our PopPK model supported ANV 150 mg once daily as the recommended dose for people living with HIV, requiring no dose adjustment for the studied factors. Optimization of ANV dose may be warranted in clinical practice due to an increasing trend in adverse reactions with increasing exposure.Trial registration::Chinese Clinical Trial Registry https://www.chictr.org.cn (Nos. ChiCTR1800018022 and ChiCTR1800019041).
