Objective To analyze the relationship between WT1 gene polymorphism rs16754 and prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) by meta-analysis. Methods Studies published in PubMed, CNKI, WanFang and CBM database were searched by using the search terms 'WT1', 'Polymorphism' and 'Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute', respectively. Deadline was December 1, 2015. Results A total of 11 English articles with a total of 2 789 patients were included. Meta-analysis showed that there was no association between polymorphism rs16754 and complete remission of AML patients (RR=1.02, 95 % CI: 0.99~1.06, P=0.20), overall survival(OS) (HR=0.68, 95 % CI: 0.45~1.02, P=0.06), 5-year OS (RR=1.10, 95 % CI:0.90~1.34, P=0.37) or relapse-free survival (RFS) (HR=0.80, 95 % CI: 0.54~1.19, P=0.27). Conclusion There is no correlation between WT1 gene polymorphism rs16754 and the prognosis of AML.

The curative effects of multi-disciplinary and comprehensive treatments for colorectsl cancer have been widely recognized in recent years.Because of the diversification of colorectal cancer treatment and the relatively mature technology,the current treatment of colorectal cancer could embody the multi-disciplinary and comprehensive treatment.The curative effect of neo-adjuvant chemoradiotherapy has been validated by several recent clinical trials.Other treatment methods such as Chinese medicine,radiofrequency ablation and hepatic artery infusion therapy are also involved in the comprehensive treatment,which provide considerable curative effects.

objective To assess relationship between microvascular changes of hemodynamics of the fingertip and evolution of hypertension in patients with essential hypertension(EH)by enhanced power Doppler imaging(E-Flow).Methods The right ring fingertip'S blood flow peak systolic velocity(PSV),end-diastolic velocity(EDV),resistance index(RI)of finger ventral arteriole and nail bed arteriole in thirty-nine patients with EH were separately observed and were made contrast with 35 age-matched healthy subjects by E-Flow imaging.Results Compared with traditional colour Doppler flow imaging and power Doppler imaging,E-Flow imaging was clearer to demonstrate the distribution and movement of the fingertip'S microvascular.It was shown that the PSV and EDV in the ring finger ventral arteriole and nail bed arteriole of EH were decreased(P＜0.05),but the RI increased(P＜0.05),along with the evolution of EH.Conclusions Fingertip'S microvascular changes of hemodynamics could be a criterion to detect obstruction alternations of essential hypertension.E-Flow imaging iS superior to traditional color Doppler flow imaging and power Doppler imaging in differentiating microvascular and could provide a new method in assessing microvacular changes of patients with EH for clinic.

Objective To investigate the effect of sodium citrate on the efficacy of oral midazolam premedication in children with congenital heart disease. Methods Forty ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ children, aged 2-6 yr, weighing 12-20 kg, undergoing cardiac surgery, were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 20 each): control group (gronp C) and sodium citrate group (group S). Group S received oral mixture of midazolam 0.12 ml/kg (0.6 my/kg), ketamine 0.12 ml/kg (6 my/kg), glucose 0.12 ml/kg (60 mg/kg) and sodium citrate 0.12 ml/kg (3 mg/kg), total volume 0.48 ml/kg. Group C received oral mixture of midazolam 0.12 ml/kg, ketamine 0.12 ml/kg and glucose 0.24 ml/kg, total volume 0.48 ml/kg. Hydrochloric acid (pH value 1.75) was mixed with the mixtures in the two groups and pH values were measured. Preoperative anxiety scale and the onset time,sedation score and parental separation score after receiving oral drugs were recorded in preparation room for anesthesia. After entering the operating room, HR, MAP and SpO2 were monitored, and the response to venepuncture in children and the adverse effects associated with oral drugs were also observed and recorded. Results The pH value was 1.97 in group C and 4.52 in group S. The parental separation score, sedation score and response score were significantly lower and the onset time was significantly shorter in group S than in group C. HR, MAP and SpO2 were in the normal range after entering the operating room. There was no obvious adverse effect after administration of oral drugs in the two groups. Conclusion Application of sodium citrate in the oral premedication in children with congenital heart disease can raise the pH value, shorten the onset time of midazolam, and enhance the sedative efficacy.

Objective To explore influences of improved intramuscular injection on quality of benzathine benzylpenicillin medication.Methods The cluster random sampling was adopted to select 178 patients who needed injection of 240U benzathine benzylpenicillin.A self-control study design was used,and benzathine benzylpenicillin was injected in both sides with each of 1 200 000 units.The left side was injected via routine method,while the right side was injected by an improved intramuscular injection.One-time success rate,degree and duration of pain during and after injection were recorded.Results The differences of one-time success rate,pain during injection,pain after injection,duration of pain after injection and incidence of induration after injection between two groups were statistically significant(P＜0.01).Conclusion The improved intramuscular injection can improve one-time success rate of benzathine benzylpenicillin,reduce pain during injection and local pain after injection,shorten duration of pain and decrease incidence of induration after injection.

Objective To observe the effects of resveratrol on blood pressure and cardiac function in the rats with vascular calcification induced by vitamin D3 plus nicotine.Methods 32 male SD rats were randomly divided into the following groups for treatment:Control (Con), calcified (Cal), Cal+Res low dose [L] and Cal+Res high dose [H] groups.Blood pressure, cardiac function, alkaline phosphatase ( ALP ) activity in serum or aorta were detected and HE staining was used for pathological examination at 6 weeks after treatment.Results Compared with the Con group, LVW/BW, heart rate, systolic aortic pressure, pulse pressure, mean blood pressure, left ventricular systolic pressure and ALP activity in serum or aorta of rats in the Cal group were increased by 27.3%, 8.8%, 22.8%, 47.5%, 13.6%, 19.0%, 280%and 265%( P<0.05 or P<0.01) , respectively.Compared with the Cal group, pulse pressure and ALP activity in serum or aorta of rats in the Cal+Res [L] group were decreased by 8.5%, 34.5%and 29.5%(P<0.05 or P<0.01), respectively, and LVW/BW, systolic aortic pressure, pulse pressure, mean blood pressure, left ventricular systolic pressure and ALP activity in serum or aorta of rats in the Cal +Res [ H] group were decreased by 14.2%, 13.6%, 23.7%,10.0%, 9.0%, 53.1%and 45.9%(P<0.05 or P<0.01), respectively.Compared with the Cal+Res [L] group, systolic aortic pressure, pulse pressure, left ventricular systolic pressure and ALP activity in serum or aorta of rats in the Cal+Res [H] group were decreased by 8.3%, 16.7%, 5.8%, 28.4% and 23.2% (P<0.05 or P<0.01), respectively.Compared with the aorta in the Con group, pathological examination revealed thickened vessel walls and disordered elastic fibers in the calcified aortas.However, the thickness of aortic wall in the Cal+Res [ L] and Cal+Res [ H] groups was reduced and elastic fibers were regularly arranged.Conclusion Resveratrol can effectively reduce the blood pressure and improve the cardiac function in rats with vascular calcification.

Objective To assess the relationship between arterial stiffness and heart function in patients with hypertension using ultrasonography. Methods A total of 167 patients with hypertension and 165 controls were enrolled, and the parameters of arterial stiffness and heart function were measured and calculated. The results were analyzed and compared. Results The ratio of peak early-diastolic mitral orifice flow velocity and peak early-diastolic mitral annular velocity in left ventricular posterior wall (E/e), and Tei index were significantly higher in hypertension group than in controls(E/e: 10.92±3.14 vs. 7.70 ±1.56, Teiindex: 0.58±0.13 vs. 0.45±0.09, both P＜0.05), but there was no significant difference in ejection fraction (EF) between the two groups. In hypertension group, the parameters of arterial stiffness including β value, pressure-strain elastic modulus (Ep), pulse wave velocity (PWVβ) and arterial compliance were 11.0±5.2, (172.6±83.8)kPa, (7.8±1.6) m/s and (0.6±0.2) mm2/ kPa. In control group, the corresponding data were 7.5±3.0, (97.1±45.4) kPa, (5.9±1.3) m/s and (0.8±0.3) mm2/kPa. There were significant differences between the two groups (all P＜0.05). The E/e was positively correlated with Ep and PWVβ(γ=0.316 and 0.296, both P＜0.05). The Tei index was positively correlated with Ep,augmentation index (AI) and PWVβ(γ=0.278, 0.300 and 0.323, P＜0.05-0.01). There was no significant correlation between EF and arterial stiffness. Conclusions The arterial stiffness and damage of heart function can result from hypertension. The arterial stiffness can be one of monitoring indexes for the heart function damage in early time.
