Objective To evaluate the clinical value of 64-slice spiral computed tomography(CT) in detecting coronary artery disease. Methods Twenty-three patients with suspected coronary artery stenosis were analyzed by 64-slice spiral computed tomography coronary angiography and catheter coronary angiography. Results Two hundred and ninety -one segments of the two hundred ninety-nine coronary artery segments in twenty-three patients could be visualized by 64-slice spiral CT,eight segments couldn't be visualized because of calcification and exercising shadow. According to gold standard of selective coronary arteriongraphy,the sensibility,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value to diagnose coronary artery stenosis by 64-slice spiral CT were 88.7%,98.2%,94.0% and 96.4%.Conclusion The coronary artery stenosis diagnosis by 64 -slice spiral CT is a potential detecting method and good clinical value but could not replace selective coronary arteriongraphy.

Objective To investigate the impact and significance of the vagus nerve intervention on the atrial electrical emodeling.Methods 30 mongrel dogs were given metoprolol in order to eliminate the effects of sympathetic nerve on atrial electrical remodeling;observe the atrial effective refractory period (ERP) and atrial fibrillation susceptible window(VW) in the high right atrial(SA) and coronary sinus (CS) by the vagus nerve stimulation(VS) or vagus nerve stimulation(Non-VS) before and after using atropine and after atrial electrical remodeling was observed.Results Before using vagus nerve blocking agents atropine,ERP shortened significantly [(54.83 ± 46.23) ms] and VW increased significantly [(19.86±13.23) ms] after VS,this time with atrial fibrillation-prone ; After using atropine,ERP increased significantly [(112.33 ± 9.63) ms] under VS,did not induce atrial fibrillation; After atrial electrical remodeling,the value of ERP was no significant difference under basis and VS (t =2.116,0.853,all P ＞0.05).Conclusion VS can increase the atrial electrical remodeling,an increase of atrial fibrillation susceptibility;vagus nerve block can reduce atrial electrical remodeling and atrial fibrillation susceptibility decreased.

The AIDS epidemic in men who have sex wlth men (MSM) in recent years showed a sharp upward trend, looking for behavioral intervention strategies should be imperative. Fear appeals by fear prompted intervention received intervention information, provide a new breakthrough to achieve better effect of propaganda and intervention. After over 70 years development, the Fear Appeal generated from the driver model that proposed the fear decided the effectiveness of behavior intervention, to the extended parallel process model theory which integrated protection motivation theory and parallel process theory, both of which believed the fear is just one of the estimators, suggested fear is the key factor. The fear appeal theory is turning to be even more comprehensive and accurate. As an important theoretical basement, the fear appeal is still developing, and need more work to make it perfection.

Objectives:To investigate the effects of morning blood pressure on vascular endothelial function and chronic inflammatory response in the elderly.Methods:349 elderly people aged ≥60 who underwent 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring in Gaomi Municipal Hospital from April 2018 to October 2019 were selected to detect brachial artery flow mediated vasodilation (FMD) and chronic inflammatory factors [high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL)-17] levels. According to the results of 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, the subjects were divided into normal blood pressure group ( n=108), simple morning hypertension group ( n=114) and hypertension group ( n=127). The clinical data, 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure parameters, vascular endothelial function and inflammatory factors of the three groups were compared. The correlation between 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure parameters and FMD and inflammatory factors was analyzed by partial correlation. Results:Compared with the normal blood pressure group, the simple morning hypertension group and the hypertension group had lower FMD (all P<0.05), higher serum hsCRP and TNF-α , IL-17 levels (all P<0.05). Compared with the simple morning hypertension group, the hypertension group had lower FMD ( P<0.05), higher serum hsCRP, TNF-α and IL-17 levels (all P<0.05). After controlling for age, sex, smoking history, drinking history, total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, fasting blood glucose and 24 h average blood pressure, the morning systolic blood pressure was negatively correlated with FMD ( P<0.05), and positively correlated with serum hsCRP and TNF-α and IL-17 levels (all P<0.05); the morning diastolic blood pressure was negatively correlated with FMD ( P<0.05) and positively correlated with serum hsCRP and TNF-α levels (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Morning blood pressure level is closely related to vascular endothelial function and chronic inflammation level, and is independent of 24-hour average blood pressure. The increase of morning blood pressure may be an important risk factor for endothelial dysfunction and chronic inflammation in the elderly.

BACKGROUND:The Yi people have used Sambucus adnata Wall to treat fractures,bruises,arthritis,etc.The author's group found that the active site aqueous extract(SAW-A)and dichloromethane extract(SAW-B)can promote fracture healing by promoting the expression of genes related to osteoblast proliferation,differentiation and maturation,differentiation and maturation.However,the therapeutic effect of methanol extract(SAW-C)at its active site on osteoarthritis is unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the therapeutic effect of Sambucus adnata Wall extract on osteoarthritis,and to identify the effective targets of Sambucus adnata Wall extract in the treatment of osteoarthritis by network pharmacology technology. METHODS:A rat osteoarthritis model was replicated by anterior cruciate ligamentectomy and model rats were then treated with methanol extract of Sambucus adnata Wall by gavage for 21 days.On the 21st day after modeling,the knee joint of rats was detected by X-ray,the width of the knee joint was measured,oxidative stress indexes and inflammatory factors levels in serum and joint lavage fluid were detected,the morphology of the knee joint was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining,full-thickness cartilage and hyaline cartilage thickness were measured,and the content of articular cartilage proteoglycan was observed by safranin O-fast green staining.The"drug-component-disease-target"network was constructed.Gene ontology enrichment analysis and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes enrichment analysis of effective targets were performed,and protein-protein interaction network maps were constructed using cytoscape software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Sambucus adnata Wall extract could reduce tumor necrosis factor-α level in joint lavage fluid and serum levels of prostaglandin E2 and malondialdehyde,while increase the level of superoxide dismutase;relieve joint swelling caused by osteoarthritis;improve the histopathological state of articular cartilage,maintain the thickness of full-thickness articular cartilage,hyaline cartilage and the area of bone trabeculae in subchondral bone;and effectively prevent the loss of proteoglycans in articular cartilage and have a chondroprotective effect.Network pharmacological results showed that the methanol extract of Sambucus adnata Wall may have some targets related to inhibition of tumor necrosis factor,AKT1,interleukin-6,MAPK3,and SRC as well as inhibition of over-activation of EGFR signaling pathway and AGE-RAGE signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the correlation between post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD),resilience and quality of life of front-line medical staff in public health emergencies.Methods:From Nov to Dec 2020,the medical staff of 4 COVID-19 designated hospitals in Wuhan were investigated with the general demographic questionnaire,10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale,PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 and Simplify Qualify of Life Scale.Spearman correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis were used to investigate the correlation between PTSD,resilience and quality of life.Results:A total of 545 questionnaires were collected in this survey and the valid effective rate was 97.8% (533/545).The score of psychological resilience,PTSD and quality of life of medical staff were 26(20,30),17(8,25),and 20(18,23),respectively.And 13.1% (70/533)of medical staff had obvious PTSD symptoms.There were significant differences in the score of quality of life among medical staff with different genders,occupations and PTSD levels.Spearman correlation analysis results showed that the score of PTSD was negatively correlated with quality of life and psychological resilience(r=-0.488 and-0.464,P＜0.01).The score of psychological resilience was positively correlated with the score of quality of life(r =0.578,P＜0.01).Psychological resilience and PTSD were important predictors of quality of life,with an explanatory capacity of 37.0% .Conclusions:PTSD is a risk factor for quality of life,and psychological resilience is a protective factor for quality of life.In public health emergencies,improving psychological resilience,preventing and treating PTSD can improve the quality of life of medical staff.

Objective To investigate the value of endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy ( ERAT) in the diagnosis and treatment of atypical acute appendicitis. Methods All the 48 patients suspected of atypical acute appendicitis in Jiangsu Province Hospital from January 2015 to December 2016 were randomly divided into ERAT group and conservative treatment group according to the treatment method. The final appendectomy rate of the two groups was analyzed. Results Only 17 of the 24 patients in the ERAT group received endoscopic treatment because of complex conditions or personal wishes, and 16 cases were diagnosed as acute appendicitis. Surgical resection was performed in 5 cases because of recurrence of the disease after ERAT, and the appendectomy rate was 31. 2％ ( 5/16 ) . In the conservative treatment group, all 24 patients were treated with antibiotics. Twenty of them underwent surgical resection with appendectomy rate of 83. 3％ ( 20/24) , and 1 of them had appendiceal perforation. The appendectomy rate of the ERAT group was significantly lower than that of the conservative treatment group (χ2=11. 111, P<0. 05) . Conclusion ERAT has a high diagnostic and therapeutic value for atypical acute appendicitis.

Parkinson′s disease is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system with abnormal protein deposition in the brain as the main pathological changes. The onset of Parkinson′s disease is related to abnormal deposition protein removal disorders, and the relevant mechanisms are still unclear. The glymphatic system is a metabolic waste and abnormal protein deposition removal system in the brain. In recent years, studies have shown that the changes of aquaporin 4, perivascular space and dural lymphatic vessels in Parkinson′s disease are closely related to the level of relevant pathological proteins in cerebrospinal fluid, leading to the occurrence and development of Parkinson′s disease. The researches on structure and biomarkers of the glymphatic system in Parkinson′s disease in recent years are reviewed in this article.

Objective To investigate the effect of serum lipid level on carotid artery stenosis in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease.Methods Using a multi-center cross-sectional study,10 711 consecutive inpatients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) or ischemic stroke diagnosed clearly in 20 stroke screening and prevention project base hospitals from June 2015 to May 2016 were enrolled.According to the results of carotid ultrasonography,1 560 patients with extracranial carotid artery stenosis rate≥50% screened were enrolled in the study.They were divided into a severe stenosis group (70%-99%) and a mild-moderate stenosis group (<70%).The distribution of total cholesterol (TC),triacylglycerol (TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels in both groups of carotid stenosis patients were analyzed,and the quantitative classification was based on the normal range of serum lipids.The distributions of serum lipid levels in different grades in patients of both groups were compared with the non-parameter test.Results The incidence of dyslipidemia in the severe stenosis group was higher than that in the mild and moderate stenosis group.There was no significant difference between the two groups (54.4%[319/586]vs.48.3%[470/974],P<0.05).Dyslipidemia was an independent risk factor for severe carotid artery stenosis (OR,1.27,95% CI 1.24-1.30,P<0.01).The TC and LDL-C levels in patients of the severe stenosis group were significantly higher than those in the mild-moderate stenosis group (TC:3.98[3.31,4.82]mmol/L vs.3.91[3.31,4.53]mmol/L,LDL-C:2.48[1.86,3.14]vs.2.30[1.79,2.80];all P<0.01).With the increase of TC and LDL-C levels,there was significant differences between the severe stenosis group and the mild-moderate stenosis group (all P<0.05),and the proportions of TC >5.80 mmol/L (7.3%[43/586]vs.0.4%[4/974]) and LDL-C>3.12 mmol/L (26.3%[154/586]vs.10.0%[97/974]) in patients of the severe stenosis group were higher than those in the mild-moderate stenosis group (26.3%[154/586]vs.10.0%[97/974]).Conclusion The high LDL-C and TC levels may increase the incidence of severe carotid artery stenosis or occlusion.
