Objective　 To study the prevalence and relevant risk factors of low blood pressure and its influence on cardiovascular diseases in China. Methods　A cross-sectional study for low blood pressure was conducted using the data of the third national survey of blood pressure in 1991. Low blood pressure was defined for systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP) pressure less than the tenth percentile for the sample (SBP≤98mmHg and DBP≤60mmHg). Results　The prevalence of low blood pressure for males and females were 2.7% and 7.4%, respectively. The prevalence of low blood pressure for females was higher than that of males (P<0.01). Prevalence of low blood pressure was 7.62%, 6.97%, 4.40%, 3.22%, 2.65%, 1.94% for age groups 15～, 25～, 35～, 45～, 55～, 65～, respectively. The prevalence of low blood pressure was gradually declined with aging. There was large variation in the prevalence of low blood pressure for different minorities. The prevalence of low blood pressure was higher in the southern rather than the northern part of China. Logistic regression showed that the age (OR 0.97, 95%CI 0.97～0.98, per 10 mmHg), BMI (OR 0.80, 95%CI 0.80～0.81), drinking (OR 0.89, 95%CI 0.86～0.93) and heart rate (OR 0.981, 95%CI 0.980～0.982) had reverse relationship with low blood pressure. The sex had a positive relationship with low blood pressure. The prevalence of stroke and myocardial infarction in the population with low blood pressure was lower than that of normal pressure or hypertension (P<0.01). Conclusion　The prevalence and relevant risk factors of low blood pressure in China were various. We speculate that low blood pressure in Chinese population appears to be a normal state of physiology.The difinite influence in health needs cohort studies to confirm.

As a tool for the research of periodical literature data,core journal was initially used in optimizing selection of journals for libraries and information institutes and in providing access for readers to selection of journals.But in recent years,the primitive function of core journal has began to weaken and its negative effects to generalize,mainly in the value orientation deviation of academic periodicals and in the generalization of the evaluation function.Due to these effects,bad results have emerged in periodical circle,academia and even in scientific research management,therefore,rational cognition may be required on the functional effects of core journals.

This article presents the design of a treadmill of comprehensive training experiment for rats. The treadmill is composed of six tracks and two of them were designed as conventional plane, two were designed to swing right and left, and two were designed to swing back and forth. The power was provided by six motors. The MSP430F149 is used as core to adjust the swing rate and the grade of electric shock. The IAR for MSP430 is used to design the software. The speed of the six tracks could be adjusted between 0 and 30 m/min. The swing tracks of back and forth can be swung for 3-25 times per minute and the swing tracks of right and left for 3-32 times. The electric shock can be divided into three levels, i. e. strong, middle, and weak level for each track. The digital comprehensive training treadmill can meet different training needs, and provide experimental data for mechanism research of some related diseases.

Objective To evaluate the effects of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) on ventricular remodeling. Methods Parameters of every subject including left ventricular mass ( LVM), left ventricular mass index (LVMI), E/A ratio, 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), ambulatory blood pressure monitoring(ABPM) data including 24-hour mean systolic blood pressure(mSBP) and 24-hour mean diastolic blood pressure(mDBP) were collected. Then the relationship of IGT and myocardial remodeling related parameters were analyzed. Results The rate of diastolic dysfunction was higher in the IGT combined with hypertensive group(74% ) compared with the hypertensive group( 39% )( x2 = 6. 5, P ＜ 0. 05 ). The rate of diastolic dysfunction was higher in the IGT group( 34% ) compared with the normal group( 10% ) (x2 = 5.2,P ＜0. 05). The rate of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy (LVH)in the IGT combined with hypertensive group (24%) was higher than the other three groups (Hypertension group 7%, IGT group 0, Normal group 0) (x2 =4.561,P ＜0.05), and there was no significance between the rest three groups (P ＞0.05).Stepwise multiple regression showed age and 2 Hours' Postprandial Blood Glucose were independent risk factors of E/A ratio. Conclusions These results suggested that IGT is a possible contributor to left ventricular hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction, and is one of the histopathology of left ventricular remodeling.

Objective To investigate whether ultrasound (US)-targeted microbubble (MB) destruction (UTMD) can influence the biofilm and bacteria in morphology.Methods Twenty-hour biofilms of Staphylococcus epidermidis RP62A were treated with US or UTMD.The acoustic intensity was 0.5-1.5W/cm2,the duty cycle was 50％ and the duration was 10 minutes.After treatment,the absorbance values (A570) of biofilms stained with the crystal violet were measured to assess the biofilm density.The biofilms were observed with macroscopy and light microscopy.The biofilms were examined by confocal laserscanning microscopy (CLSM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).Results A thick and compact biofilm was observed in the untreated control group,and there were no obvious micropores in biofilms under macrology and light micrology.Although there were no significant changes under macroscopy in both biofilms treated with US only and UTMD with 0.5 W/cm2 acoustic intensity,interestingly,many micropores could be found under microscopy.The diameters of micropores increased with increasing acoustic intensity,and the micropores in biofilms treated with UTMD were bigger than those treated with US-only in the same condition of acoustic intensity (P ＜0.05).The largest diameters of micropores were up to 1 mm in biofilms treated with UTMD using 1.5 W/cm2 (P ＜0.05).The biofilm density (A570 value) decreased with increasing of the acoustic intensity,and the values in UTMD group of 1.5 W/cm2 were the lowest (P ＜ 0.05).Micropores also could be observed under CLSM.There were no obvious dead bacteria in biofilms treated with US and UTMD compared with untreated control group (P ＞0.05).Under SEM,the shape of bacteria in biofilms treated with US and UTMD became irregular,and many rounded projection could be observed in the surface of the bacteria treated with UTMD.Conclusions US and UTMD can produce micropores in biofilms,which might help to promote antibiotic activity against biofilms

Objective To explore the expression of Survivin in colorectal cancer tissue and its relationship with clinicopathological features.Methods In situ hybridization was used to examine the expression of Survivin mRNA,and immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of Survivin protein in 60 cases of colorectal cancer and 30 cases of colorectal normal mucos tissue.The relationship of the expression of Survivin protein with clinicopathological features of colorectal cancer was analyzed.Results The positive expression rate of Survivin protein in colorectal normal mucos tissue (10.00％,3/30) was lower than that in colorectal cancer tissue (73.33％,44/60),and there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).The positive expression rate of Survivin mRNA in colorectal normal mucos tissue (6.67％,2/30) was lower than that in colorectal cancer tissue (63.33％,38/60),and there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).The expression of Survivin mRNA was positively correlated with depth of invasion,lymph node metastasis,liver metastasis,peritoneal micrometastasis and TNM stage in patients with colorectal cancer (P ＜ 0.01),but had no correlation with gender,age,tumor size,location,degree of differentiation and histological type (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The specific high expression of Survivin protein has a high correlation with the occurrence,development,infiltration of colorectal cancer.Survivin may be used as a marker for prognosis of patients with colorectal cancer.

Alzheimer's disease is an irreversible neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive neuronal loss. To date, there has been no effective medicine or therapy for neurodegenerative disease. With development of stem cell technique and theory, neural stem cell transplantation has been found to be prospective in Alzheimer's disease treatment. However, it was challenged by the deficiency of autologous neural stem cell, which can bypass immunological barrier. Compared with neural stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells exhibit extensive resources, such as liver, bone marrow and adipose, and multiple differentiations into bone, muscle or adipose. Considering the easy access, the minor trauma to the patients, and the neuron differentiation potential of adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (A-MSC), we hypothesize that A-MSC graft is a potential and innovative strategy for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
