Objective To observe and analyze the correlation between the DNA methyltransferase-3B (DNMT3B) gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) rs 1569686 and the susceptibility to colorectal cancer (CRC) in Tianjin Han population.Methods A case-control study was performed.89 CRC patients and 94 normal controls were examined,and Sequenom MassArray system was applied to detect the genotype of rs1569686 in DNMT3B gene polymorphisms.The association results were analyzed of the SNP and CRC.Results The frequencies of genotypes TT,GT and GG at SNP rs1569686 were 74.2％,24.7％ and 1.1％ in CRC patients respectively,which there were no significant differences from that in controls(73.4％,23.4％ and 3.2％; P＞0.05).Conclusion It suggests that the SNP rs1569686 of DNMT3B gene may not be related to susceptibility of CRC in Tianjin Han population.

Objective: To summarize and analyze the early outcomes and clinical experience in 1198 patients undergone off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB). Methods: This multi-center report covers 15 different institutes in China from October 1996 to May 2002. The ratio of OPCAB to conventional coronary artery bypass grafting (cCABG) was 85.2%. The mean age was (61.6?9.0) years. 77.3% patients were male and 22.7% were female. There were 34.6% patients with myocardial infarction, 58.2% with unstable angina pectoris, 18.7% with left main lesion, 76.9% with triple-vessel disease, 1.5% was redo surgery, and 9.9% emergent or urgent surgery. The mean left ventricular ejection fraction was 0.56?0.17. Results: The number of distal anastomosis was 3.1?0.9. IMA was used in 65.6% patients and radial artery was used in 18.0%. 13.5% OPCAB was combined with TMLR. IABP was used in 5.2% patients. The hospital mortality was 1.2%. The morbidity included 0.4% peri-operative myocardial infarction, 0.3% heart failure, 1.2% fatal arrhythmia, 2.0% pulmonary complications, 1.2% neurotic disorder, 0.7% renal dysfunction, 1.0% reopen for bleeding, and 0.6% delayed wound healing. Conclusion: OPCAB surgery is a safe and feasible procedure with good early results. Its late outcomes need further follow-up. OPCAB requires certain special skills and methods in practice so a specific training course should be designed.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of gelatin sponge particles(GSP)or polyvinyl alcohol particles (PVA) for hemoptysis secondary to bronchiectasis or pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods The clinical data on 271 patients with bronchiectasis- or tuberculosis-induced hemoptysis were retrospectively analyzed. The efficacy and rates of recurrence and complications were analyzed. Results A total 271 patients were included in this study, 176 of whom suffered from bronchiectasis and the rest 95 had tuberculosis. One-week cure rate was signifi-cantly higher in bronchiectasis group than in tuberculosis group(73.3%vs. 46.3%,P<0.05),and one-year recur-rence rate was significantly lower in bronchiectasis group(17.6%vs. 26.3%,P<0.05). One-year recurrence rate was slightly higher in patients receiving GSP than in those undergoing PVA(bronchiectasis group:22.2%vs. 10.3%, P<0.05;tuberculosis group:28.8%vs. 22.2%,P>0.05). No severe complications occurred. Conclusions In-terventional artery embolization therapy for hemoptysis secondary to bronchiectasis is better than tuberculosis-induced hemoptysis,and PVA is more effective than GSP. Recurrence of massive hemoptysis mostly occurrs within one month ,and most of the patients are complicated with blood supply and have a history of hemoptysis.
