Objective To explore the value of strain rate imaging (SRI) technology in the diagnosis of hypertension patient with re-gional left ventricular early diastolic dysfunction. Methods 50 essential hypertension patients were divided into hypertension Group Ⅰ and Group Ⅱ, including 31 patients with normal left ventricular and 19 patients with left ventricular hypertrophy. 25 healthy people were used as the control group. SRI was done in the six different basal myocardial segments and the parameters of SRI were compared with that of Doppler tissue imaging (DTI) and pulse Doppler (PW). Results In the hypertension group, SRe of the six different basal myocardial segments was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05), but (SRa) of hypertension group was higher (P<0.05). SRe was negatively correlated with the patients'illness development (r=-0.89, P<0.05), but SRa was positively correlated (r=0.97, P<0.05). And the SRe/SRa<1 detection rate of Group Ⅱ was higher than that in Group Ⅰ, and the ratio in the control group was lowest(P<0.05). Total detection rate of SRI (88%) was higher than Em/Am <1 of DTI (79.67%) and E/A < 1 of PW(60%), and these changes were more obvious in Group Ⅰ. SRI was higher than DTT and PW (P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with traditional technology and methods, SRI could pro-vide more accurate diagnoses to hypertension patient with regional left ventricular early diastolic dysfunction.

BACKGROUND:Nowadays, gene therapy has become a new trend for disease therapy and brought promise for some refractory diseases. Its key is to choose proper cel s, genes and vectors. OBJECTIVE:To use recombinant adeno-associated virus mediatedβ-nerve growth factor (β-NGF) to transfect rat bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cel s in vitro, and to investigate the effect ofβ-NGF expression on the proliferation of endothelial progenitor cel s. METHODS:The endothelial progenitor cel s were isolated, cultured and identified from the bone marrow of rats. Empty vector or recombinant adenovirus-associated virus containingβ-NGF gene was transferred into endothelial progenitor cel s. We examined the transfection efficiency by fluorescence expression of green fluorescent protein. Expression ofβ-NGF protein was detected using ELISA, and its effect on the proliferation of endothelial progenitor cel s was determined using MTT method. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Rat endothelial progenitor cel s were isolated and cultured successful y in vitro and were identified positive by the function of cel s and immunofluorescence staining. The endothelial progenitor cel s were infected directly by the recombinant adenovirus-associated virus containingβ-NGF gene with an efficiency of 65.3%.β-NGF protein was detected in the culture supernatant of transfected endothelial progenitor cel s, which reached a high level at 10 days after gene transfection. Furthermore, there was noβ-NGF protein in the blank and empty vector groups. After transfection, the proliferative ability of endothelial progenitor cel s was increased, which was significantly higher than the blank and empty vector groups (P<0.05). But there was no difference between the latter two groups (P>0.05). These findings suggest that recombinant adenovirus-associated virus containingβ-NGF gene can be successful y transferred into rat bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cel s and promote the proliferation of endothelial progenitor cel s.

Objective To assess the effects of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and bipolar cord coagulation (BCC) on the prognosis and complication rate of complicated monochorionic twins.Methods A retrospective review was undertaken in 58 cases of complicated monochorionic twins treated with RFA or BCC at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat Sen University,from January 2008 to August 2013.Non-parametric Wilcoxon test,Chi-square test,Fisher exact test or multi-variant Logistic regression analysis were used for statistical analysis.Results Indications for selective termination in the 58 cases were:twin reversed arterial perfusion sequence in 12,severe twin to twin transfusion syndrome in 28,discordance of fetal anomalies in 10,selective intrauterine growth restriction in 7 and twin anemia-polycythemia sequence in 1.Forty-three cases were managed with BCC and 15 with RFA.Preterm labor was more common in the BCC group than in the RFA group [86.0％(37/43) vs 9/15,respectively; x2=4.598,P=0.032).Premature rupture of the membranes occurred in 48.8％(27/43) of the BCC group vs.4/15 of the RFA group (x2=2.229,P=0.135).The median procedure-todelivery time was 48 (1-150) days for the BCC group vs.101(14-138) days for the RFA group (Z=-2.245,P=0.025).Overall survival rate was 62.8％(27/43) in the BCC group vs 11/15 in the RFA group (x2=0.547,P=0.460),which was not significantly different.Neurodevelopmental delay was detected in two neonates in BCC group and in one neonate in RFA group.Logistic regression analysis showed that delivery before 28 gestational weeks was an independent risk factor for the poor prognosis of the co-twins (OR=192.720,95％CI:18.610-994.000,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Compared with BCC,RFA does not improve the prognosis of complicated monochorionic twins significantly.

Objective To evaluate the effect of intraperitoneal water soluble lipopolymer (WSLP)/ N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor subunit 2B (NR2B) siRNA compound on the neuropathic pain (NP) in rats.Methods Eighty-four healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 6 weeks,weighing 180-220 g,were randomly divided into 7 groups (n =12 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),sham operation group (group S),NP group,WSLP/NR2B siRNA group (siWSLP group),WSLP/negative control siRNA group (ncWSLP group),PEI/NR2B siRNA group (PEI group) and WSLP group (WSLP group).NP was produced by ligation of the left L5 spinal nerve.In group S,the left L5 spinal nerve was only exposed,but not ligated.In group C,the rats underwent no treatment.Groups siWSLP,ncWSLP,PEI and WSLP received single intraperitoneal injection of WSLP/NR2B siRNA,WSLP/negative control siRNA,PEI/NR2B siRNA and WSLP compound 2 ml,respectively,at 10 days after NP.At 1 day before operation,7 days after operation,and 3,7,14 and 21 days after intraperitoneal injection,6 rats in each group were chosen randomly to measure mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal paw withdrawal latency (TWL).At 3 days after intraperitoneal injection,the left 6 rats in each group were sacrificed and the spinal cord was removed for detection of NP2B mRNA expression (using PCR) and NR2B expression (by Western blot).Results Compared with group C,MWT was significantly decreased,and TWL was shortened on 7 days after operation and 3,7 and 21 days after intraperitoneal injection,and the expression of NR2B mRNA and protein was down-regulated on 3 days after administration in the other groups.Compared with group NP,MWT was significantly increased,and TWL was prolonged on day 3 and 7 after intraperitoneal injection,and the expression of NR2B mRNA and protein was down-regulated on day 3 after administration in siWSLP group.Conclusion Intraperitoneal WSLP/NR2B siRNA compound can effectively relieve the NP in rats.
