Objective To evaluate the long-term clinical outcome of percutaneous coronary intervention ( PCI) with drug-eluting stents ( DES) for distal unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) lesions. Methods Between Jan 2005 and Dec 2009, 111 patients with distal ULMCA disease who underwent drug-eluting stents implantation were enrolled in this retrospective study. The primary end points were major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event (MACCE) at follow-up, including death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular event and target lesion revascularization ( TLR) . Results Patients were 65. 6 ± 10 years old. 21. 6% were diabetic. 31. 5% of the left main bifurcations were classed as Medina 1, 1, 1. Provisional T stent technique was performed for 79. 3% of the population. 30. 6% of cases underwent angiography follow-up. The median follow-up time was 2. 3 years, the MACCE-free survival was 87. 4% and the estimated freedom from TLR was 94. 6% . Diabetes mellitus was identified as the predictor of TLR. Conclusions PCI with DES for distal ULMCA disease was safe and effective when the strategy was made based on the case-by-case assessment.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of surgical retrieval of testicular spermatozoa,and to present the preliminary results of the retrieved testicular spermatozoa used in intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) for treatment of non obstructive azoospermic infertility. Methods Forty nine cases of non obstructive azoospermia underwent open testicular biopsy and diagnostic testicular sperm extraction (TESE).Those who had sperms in diagnostic TESE underwent ICSI at least 3 months later. Results Sperms were detected in diagnostic TESE in 12 cases (24.9%). The testicular volume,FSH level and testicular pathology did not accurately predict the presence or absence of sperm in testes.Seven (87.5%) of 8 cases had sperm in re TESE, which were used in their ICSI cycles,resulting in 3 clinical pregnancies. Conclusions The diagnostic TESE should be performed to determine the presence or absence of testicular spermatozoa in testicular failure before ICSI,and the surgically retrieved testicular spermatozoa can be adopted in ICSI for treatment of non obstructive azoospermic infertility.

Objective To research the expression change and the sense of histone acetylation and p21WAF1 protein in breast cancer. Methods Pathological morphologic changes of breast cancer were identified by H. E. staining. Immunohistochemical study for p21WAF1 protein expression was performed on 80 breast cancers and 80 normal breast tissues. The expressions of acetylated histone H3, H4 and p21WAF1 protein in 80 breast cancers and 80 normal breast tissues were analyzed by Western blot. Results H.E. staining discovered that the tissue structure and cell morphous of breast cancer had visible atypia, compared with normal breast tissues. The immunohistochemical results displayed that the positive expression of p21 WAF1 in 80 breast cancers and 80 normal breast tissues was 49 cases(61.25 %) or 3 cases (3.75%), respectively. There was significantly difference in the expression level between the 80 breast cancers and 80 normal breast tissues (P < 0. 05). The expression levels of p21WAF1 protein in breast cancer tissues were higher than that in normal breast tissues, 0. 78 ± 0. 095 or 0. 65 ± 0. 055, respectively. The expression levels of acetylated histone H3, H4 protein in normal breast tissues were higher than those in breast cancer tissues. H3 was 2. 35 ± 0. 340 or 1.07 ± 0. 067, respectively, H4 was 3.44 ± 0. 202 or 1.11 ± 0. 086, respectively. There was significantly difference in the expression levels between the 80 breast cancers and 80 normal breast tissues (P <0. 01). Conclusions The occurrence and development of breast cancers may be related to the expression change of histone acetylation and p21WAF1 protein.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the significance of tacrolimus blood concentration monitoring to the therapy of mem-branous nephropathy. METHODS:41 patients with membranous nephropathy received tacrolimus,and the blood concentration of ta-crolimus reached to steady state. The trough concentration of tacrolimus was determined by EMIT. The patients were followed up, and clinical therapeutic efficacies were recorded. The relationship of blood concentration of tacrolimus with clinical efficacy was evaluated by SPSS 16.0 software. RESULTS:The blood concentration of tacrolimus was(7.47±2.74)ng/ml in complete remission (CR)group,(5.72±1.19)ng/ml in partial response(PR)group,and(3.30±1.08)ng/ml in no response(NR)group,with total remission rate of 75.61%. The blood concentration of CR group was the highest,followed by PR group and NR group,there was statistical significance among 3 groups(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The clinical efficacy of tacrolimus in the treatment of nephrot-ic syndrome is correlate to the blood concentration intimately. Trough concentration monitoring of tacrolimus has important signifi-cance to the treatment of membranous nephropathy.
