Objective To investigate the serum levels of resistin after coronary stent implantation(CSI).Methods Forty patients who underwent coronary stenting were included in this study and another 40 patients who received coronary angiography during the same period were selected as control.The concentration of resistin and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(Hs-CRP) was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Blood samples for measurement of resistin and Hs-CRP were taken right before the procedure and at 1 h,6 h and 24 h after the procedure.Results The serum resistin level measured at 6 hr after the procedure in patients who had received PCI was higher than that before the procedure(30.4?9.2 ?g/L vs 23.4?6.4 ?g/L,t=9.03,P0.05).Conclusion Coronary stenting causes a detectable increase in serum levels of resistin and it can be regarded as an indicator for injury caused by coronary stenting.

Objective To probe into the social support, coping styles, and mental health status of medical staff in a tertiary hospital in Beijing, for identifying potential mental problems. Methods Such means as the Social Support Rating Sheet (SSRS), Simple Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ), Symptom Checklist (SCL-90), and demographic characteristics questionnaire were called into play, to study 2460 medical staff in five tertiary hospitals in Beijing. Results Differences were identified among medical staff of different demographic characteristics, in terms of positive coping style and support dimensions. Analysis of the survey data indicates that the total SCL scores, total symptom problem index, positive symptom pain level, total average score of the factors, are positively related to passive coping style, as P<0. 01; and are negatively related to subjective/objective support, support utilization, and total support scores, as P<0. 01. Conclusions Hospital administration is expected to implement focused intervention to such medical staff as those under 40 years old, women, widows or divorcees, those with education lower than university degree, those with junior academic title or lower, those without titles, those in emergency departments and emergency intensive care units, doctors and nurses, frequent night-shift workers, those of excessively low self evaluation, and medical staff with chronic diseases. The purpose of this practice is to alleviate their mental stress.

Aim To investigate the effect of MTX(included(±)MTX,(+)MTX and(-)MTX)on the proliferation of ECV304 cells and to explore its mechanisms.Methods ECV304 cells were cultured.The cell proliferation was determined by MTT.The morphological changes were inspected by inverted microscope.Cell cycle phases were assayed by propidium iodide staining flow cytometry.Results ECV304 cells were treated with(+)MTX,(-)MTX and(±)MTX at 1~150 μmol·L~(-1) for 24,48,72 h.The results showed that the proliferation of ECV304 cells was significantly inhibited under different conditions.The order of the inhibited efficacy was(+)MTX>(±)MTX>(-)MTX.The morphology of ECV304 cells were changed by(+)MTX,(-)MTX and(±)MTX treatment,which included the cell shrinkage,chromatin condensation.After administration of 10 μmol·L~(-1) of(+)MTX,(-)MTX and(±)MTX for 48 h,the cell cycle phases were assayed by propidium iodide staining flow cytometry.The result showed DNA replication was interfered by(+)MTX,(-)MTX and(±)MTX treatment.Conclusions The proliferation of ECV304 cells has the chiral selective effects by(+)MTX and(-)MTX treatment,and the inhibition on ECV304 cells proliferation of(+)MTX is significantly stronger than that of (-)MTX.

Objective To undertake a survey on the prevalence, pathogenic factors and treatment needs of hearing impairment in children under 14 years old in Guizhou province. Methods Using the probability proportion to size (PPS) method, 2 068 children aged 0~14 years were included in the study and in 30 clusters in Guizhou province based on the WHO protocol. Results For children aged 0~14 years, the prevalence of hearing impairment was 3.48% and the prevalence of hearing disability was 1.84 %. There were statistically differences of the prevalence of hearing disability between children aged 7~ 14 years (2.66 %) and 0~ 6 years (0. 51%), and the differences also in hearing impairment between male children (4.22%) and female children (2.54%). The main causes of hearing impairment were ear diseases (50.00%), non-infective conditions (11.11%), genetic conditions (20.83 %) and unknown causes (27. 77%). 3. 58% of all subjects needed medical or surgical treatment and 2. 32% needed hearing aids. Conolusion The prevalence of hearing disability of children under 14 years old in Guizhou province was higher than that of other cities. The main cause of the hearing impairment of children was otitis media with hereditary deafness also ranked in top.

Objective The study was to investigate the spectrum and incidence of the hot-spot deafness gene mutations from non-syndromic hearing loss(NSHL)in Guizhou province.Methods Genomic DNAs of 356 patients of NSHI in Guizhou were obtained from peripheral blood and a deafness gene test chip was used to screen nine hot spot mutation in the gene GJB2,SLC26A4,GJB3 and mitochondria 12SrRNA.Results Eighty-eight (24.72%)out of 356 patients were found carrying at least one pathogenic gene mutation.Among them,40 patients with the GJB2 mutations were found(11.24%),including 19 cases(5.34%)of homozygous matutions,5 cases(1.40%)of com-pound heterozygous mutations,and 15 cases(4.21%)of single heterozygous mutations.Twenty-nine patients with the SLC26A4 mutations were found (8.15%),including 9 cases(2.53%)of homozygous mutations and 19 cases (5.34%)of single heterozygous mutations.Homogenic mitochondrial 12SrRNA 1555A>G mutations were in 10 patients(2.81%)and 1494C>T mutations in 10 patients (0.56%),and heterogeneous mitochondrial 12SrRNA 1555A>G mutations in 7 patients(1.97%).GJB3 gene c.538C>T heterozygous mutations was found in 1 patients. Conclusion The mutations of GJB2 and SLC26A4 gene are two major pathogenic genes for patients with NSHL in Guizhou province.Our study provides a theoretical basis for the early diagnosis,genetic counseling and treatment of deafness.
