Healthy control group was of 30 healthy subjects. The contents of plasma endothelin (ET) were determined before and after treatment respectively, and the therapeutic effect of both treated groups were observed. Results After treatment, the psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) of both treated groups were significantly decreased in comparison with before treatment (P

Lung transplantation is the unique method to cure pulmonary tuberculosis at final stage. This paper reviewed the history, indication and contraindication, method of donor and recipient selection and donor preservation, operation methods, postoperative complications and protocol for complications to well understand issues in lung transplantation. Moreover, lacking of donors and increasing mortality of patients waiting for transplantation are urgent problems. With technique development, prognosis amendment, and improvement of survival rate and quality of life, donor source becomes important. Many studies have been conducted to explore the application of cadaveric lung, and several animal trials have been successful. In addition, scope of in vivo pulmonary lobes transplantation is increasing. Based on split liver transplantation, split double-lung transplantation is developed. This method utilizes existed donor sources, and provides options for patients waiting for transplantation.

Many malignant tumors, most commonly small cell lung cancer, merge with syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidi-uretic hormone (SIADH). SIADH is caused by the neuroendocrine function of tumor cells or is a side effect of chemotherapeutics. As a chemotherapeutic side effect, SIADH presents as hyponatremia. Therapy for SIADH includes both treatment for primary diseases and hyponatremia. Given that SIADH-induced hyponatremia aggravates the prognosis and shortens the survival time of patients with malig-nant tumors, SIADH is an independent risk factor for prognosis. Therefore, the early diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of SIADH will improve the prognosis of patients with malignant tumors.

Objective:To explore risk factors for slow coronary flow (SCF) phenomenon in male patients .Methods:A total of 123 male patients ,who were suspecting coronary heart disease because of chest pain ,then coronary angiography indica‐ted there was no significant lesion in epicardial coronary arteries ,were selected .According to presence of SCF or not ,they were divided into SCF group (n=69) and normal group (n=54) .Case data of two groups were retrospectively analyzed , and Logistic regression analysis was use to analyze risk factors for male SCF .Results:Compared with normal group ,there were significant rise in body mass index [BMI , (24. 01 ± 1. 57 ) kg/m2 vs . (27. 06 ± 3. 40 ) kg/m2 ] , hemoglobin level [ (145.79 ± 9.63) g/L vs .(150.00 ± 11.84) g/L] and hematocrit [ (0.43 ± 0.03) L/L vs .(0.45 ± 0.06) L/L] in SCF group ,P<0.05 all .Logistic regression analysis indicated that BMI (OR= 1.373 ,95% CI 1.146~1.645 ,P=0.001) and hemoglobin (OR=1.037 ,95% CI 1.000~1.176 ,P=0.048) were independent risk factors for male SCF .Conclusion:El‐evated body mass index and hemoglobin level are independent risk factors for slow coronary flow in male patients ,so corre‐sponding preventive measures must be carried out to improve prognosis .

Objective To investigate the expression and distribution of cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2) in periodontal tissues during experimental tooth movement in rats,and study the relationship between COX-2 and vesscular reconstruction in experimental tooth movement process.Methods Thirty-five healthy Wistar rats were divided randomly into 7 groups on average:normal group and experimental groups for 1,3,5,7,14 and 21 d.A NiTi coil spring with 0.294 N mesial force was connected between first molars of maxillary and the upper incisors.The histological sections were stained with goat anti rat COX-2 antibody,and computer image analysis was used to study the expression of COX-2 in the periodontal tissues of rats.Results Pressure area:compared with normal group(134.75?5.25) the COX-2 expression in 1 d group (147.73?3.27)increased(P0.05).Conclusion The expression of COX-2 in periodontal tissues during experimental tooth movement increase,suggesting that COX-2 can promote the vascular reconstruction in periodontal tissues during orthodontic tooth movement.

Objective To investigate the effect of compound preparation of Astragalus mongho-licus on subsets of lymphocytes in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG), and to explore its regulatory mechanism. Methods 60 MG patients were randomly divided into test group (n=30, given compoundpreparation of Astragalus mongholicus for 12 wks) and control group (n=30, given prednisone tablets for 12 wks). Flow cytometry was applied to examining the distribution change of the subsets of lym-phocytes in patients before and after treatment. Results After treatment, the percentages of CD4+ T cells and the ratio of CD4+/CD8+ in both groups decreased compared with those before treatment.The ratio of CD4+/CD8+ in test group was significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.05).The percentage of CD8+ T cells in test group after treatment increased significantly (P<0.05) com-pared with that before treatment, but had no significant difference compared with that in control group(P>0. 05). Conclusion The result from the current study suggests that one of the mechanisms of the compound preparation of Astragalus monghoticus regulating immune response may be achieved through its modulating effect on the distribution of subsets of lymphoeytes and humoral immune func-tion.
