Objective To observe the serum cardiac troponin I (cTnI) level and to analysis the relations between the serum cTnI level and prognosis in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and Cardiac Dysfunction.Methods Serum cardiac cTnI level was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay. Results The serum cTnI level in DCM patients with class IV cardiac function (0.53 ?0.31) ?g/L was significantly higher than in DCM patients with class Ⅲ cardiac function (0.45?0.27) ?g/L.There was significantly difference in serum cTnI levels between DCM patients with class Ⅲ cardiac function and DCM patients with class Ⅱ cardiac function(0.29?0.27) ?g/L.Conclusion The higher serum cTnI level is correlated with the severity of cardiac function and may be useful for evaluating prognosis in patients with DCM.

Objective To explore the changes of serum leptin level in patients with diabetic microangiopathy.Methods A total of 90 subjects were assigned to three groups which included 30 healthy controls,30 diabetic patients without microangiopathy and 30 patients with diabetic microangiopathy.The studing groups were matched for sex and BMI.The level of serum leptin ,ⅣC,insulin and glucose of these patients were measured,and the correlation between serum leptin level and other indexes was analyzed.Results The level of serum leptin in controls,diabetic patients without microangiopathy and patients with diabetic microangiopathy were (7.20?2.11) ?g/L, (7.95?3.78)?g/L and (10.26?4.37)?g/L respectively .The patients with diabetic microangiopathy had higher serum leptin levels than in the diabetic patients without microangiopathy( t =2.18, P

Ebola virus-related papers covered in PubMed and CNKI were analyzed by co-occurrence and cluster analysis, respectively. The current situation in research of Ebola virus in China and foreign countries was com-pared. Some suggestions were proposed for research of Ebola virus in China, such as attaching importance to re-search of Ebola virus, enforcing research of its vaccine,and strengthening cooperation between domestic and foreign scholars.

AIM: To observe the comparison of vitrectomy combined drug therapy ( Ranibizumab injection ) and single vitrectomy for proliferatived diabetic retinopathy ( PDR ) and the influence of the curative effect and prognosis of patients.
METHODS:In this study, 112 cases (125 eyes) with PDR were selected and randomly divided into experimental group and control group ( n= 56 ) . Fifty-six cases ( 61 eyes ) in experimental group were injected by drug therapy of 0. 5mg ranibizumab and received vitrectomy;In control group, 56 cases ( 64 eyes ) were received single vitrectomy. The intraoperative and postoperative differences of clinical indicators were analyzed in two groups.
RESULTS: The average operation time, intraoperative electric coagulation hemostasis rate and iatrogenic hiatal incidence of the experimental group were lower than that of the control group:(95. 00±13. 00) min vs (133. 00±14.5) min, 11% vs 34%, 5% vs 20%, respectively (P<0. 05). The anterior chamber and vitreous body cavity hemorrhage rate within postoperative 1mo in the experimental group were lower than that of the control group:7% vs 23%, 5% vs 12%, respectively (P<0. 05). The postoperative visual acuity of experimental group was better than that of the control group:0. 375±0. 210 vs 0. 261±0. 170, respectively (P<0. 05).
CONCLUSION: Patients with PDR injected with ranibizumab in vitreous cavity before vitrectomy can effectively reduce the operation time, less intraoperative blood loss, the incidence of iatrogenic hiatus, and intraoperative and postoperative complications. The postoperative visual acuity was better than before.

Juvenile idiopathic arthritis(JIA)is the most common rheumatology disease in childhood period with poor prognosis.The biological agents are newly developed drugs with features of clear therapeutic targets and fast effects.But its use in JIA is still limited,so this article focuses on the clinical use experience,timming and sideffects of the biological agents on JIA.

Objective To evaluate the effect of percutaneous closure of patent ductus arteriosus(PDA)on left ventricular size and function by measuring plasma N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)level and using two-dimensional echocardiography.Methods According to the modified Ross score,55 children with PDA were divided into 3 groups,no congestive heart failure(CHF)group(31 cases),mild CHF group(14 cases)and moderate-severe CHF group(10 cases).Fifteen age-matched and weight-matched normal children were used as controls.Plasma NT-proBNP was measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).All patients had complete echocardiographic study,including measurement of left ventricular end diastolic volume index(LVEDVI),left ventricular end systolic volume index(LVESVI),and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),and left ventricular fractional shortening(LVFS).The correlation between plasma NT-proBNP level and echocardiographic cardiac functional indexes was determined.Results 1.Before operation LVEDVI and LVESVI in PDA patients were obviously higher than those in normal controls(Pa0.05).3.Three months after operation plasma NT-proBNP level,LVEDVI and LVESVI were significantly decreased(P

To explore the relationship between maternal insulin levels and fetal insulin resistance.Maternal blood and venous cord blood samples were collected in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) mothers and control subjects.The glucose and insulin levels were measured and insulin resistance levels estimated.Maternal levels of insulin and homeostasis model of assessment for insulin resistance index (HOMAIR) were significantly higher in the GDM group than those in the control group (P < 0.05) ; fetal levels of insulin and HOMA-IR were significantly higher in the GDM group than in the control group (P < 0.05).Maternal insulin level positively correlated with fetal insulin (r =0.326,P < 0.05) and HOMA-IR levels (r =0.378,P <0.05).In this study,a higher level of fetal insulin resistance was reported in the GDM group.And maternal hyperinsulinemia might affect fetal insulin resistance in pregnant women with GDM.
