Chinese Journal of cardiovascular Rehabilitation Medicine 2017;26(3):314-317
Objective: To explore influence of urokinase on expression of soluble CD40 ligand (sCD40L) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods: A total of 94 ACS patients diagnosed and treated in our hospital from Aug 2013 to Aug 2015 were selected.According to random number table, they were randomly and equally divided into routine treatment group and urokinase group (received small dose urokinase intravenous drip based on routine treatment group).Levels of sCD40L and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) before and after treatment, therapeutic effect and incidence rate of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were measured and compared between two groups.Results: Compared with before treatment, there were significant reductions in levels of sCD40L and cTnT in both groups after treatment, P<0.01 all;compared with routine treatment group after treatment, there were significant reductions in levels of sCD40L [(2.92±0.36) ng/ml vs.(2.58±0.18) ng/ml] and cTnT [(0.10±0.02) μg/L vs.(0.04±0.01) μg/L] in urokinase group, P=0.013, 0.001 successively.Compared with routine treatment group, there was significant rise in total effective rate (76.6% vs.95.7%),and significant reduction in incidence rate of MACE (34.0% vs.4.3%) within six months in urokinase group (P<0.01 both).Conclusion: Urokinase can significantly inhibit expression of sCD40L and reduce release of cTnT, and improve therapeutic effect, and prevent major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Objective To know the distribution of arsenic and trace elements in drinking water in the endemic arsenism areas in Shanyin County, Shanxi Province. Methods Drinking water samples were collected from the chronic endemic arsenic poisoning areas of Silizhuang and Shanghexi, Shanyin County, Shanxi Province and HPLC-HG-AFS system was used to analyze the arsenic contents, valence and speciation. The trace elements were determined by ICP-MS. The data were analyzed by SPSS13.0 for windows. Results A total of 63 drinking water samples were determined, 39.68% of them exceeded the standard limit of arsenic level, inorganic arsenic was the main arsenical in drinking water, iAs3+/(iAs3++iAs5+) ratio was 56.17% in the water sample (arsenic was higher than 50 ?g/L) . The contents of Fe, Mn, Hg, Se and Pb in part of drinking water samples exceed the standard limits. No significant difference was seen between the arsenic results determined by HPLC-HG-AFS and ICP-MS. Conclusion Arsenic contamination of drinking water in Shanyin County, Shanxi Province is severe. The most frequently seen arsenic valence state in drinking water is iAs3+. Some trace elements in part of drinking water samples exceed the standard limits, this may aggravate arsenic poisoning.

Objective To assess the academic influence of research on blood pressure in the world and its frontiers. Methods Papers on blood pressure published from 2004 to 2008 and from 2009 to 2013 in China and foreign coun-tries were retrieved from Web of Science. Their academic influencing power was assessed and their evolution in the past 10 years was displayed by Citespace. Results The world outputs in research on blood pressure increased steadily from 2004 to 2014. The competitive force of the USA-led developed Western countries was strong and stable. The out-puts in research on blood pressure in China increased rapidly, but its influencing power was relatively low. Although progress was made at micro and macro levels,greater advances were achieved at gene,molecular and big data levels in the past 10 years. Conclusion The USA and European countries-led development in research on blood pressure is steady, and it is urgent for China to reduce its gap with USA and European countries.

Objective:To investigate the effects of cetylpyridinium chloride buccal tablets(CCBT)on dental plaque control.Meth-ods:60 patients with gingivitis,mild or moderate,or chronic periodontitis were divided into control group(without drug treatment), CCBT group (treated with CCBT)and CHX group (treated with compound chlorhexidine gargle)according to the randomized con-trolled single-blind principle.Quigley-Hein plaque index (PI)and bleeding index (BI)of the subjects were recorded,tumor necro-sis factor (TNF-α)and interleukin (IL-1β)in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF)were measured by ELISA before and after 2 weeks'trial.Results:After 2-week treatment,PI and BI in CCBT and CHX groups decreased(P<0.01);TNF-αin GCF decreased(P<0.05),IL-1βcontent was not changed.The changes of PI and BI were not significant between CCBT and CHX groups(P>0.05). In control group PI was decreased(P<0.05),other measurements were not changed(P>005).Conclusion:CCBT is effective in inhibiting plaque accumulation and decreasing GCF TNF-αlevel.

ObjectiveTo explore the related factors of postpartum depression among Chinese and Japanese women and analyze the cause of it.Methods587 delivery women who were from Tokyo,Japan and Henan China were investigated by using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale(EPDS) and 12-item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12), 352 Chinese women included and 235 Japanese women included.ResultsThe incidence of postpartum depression of Chinese women was 31 cases accounting for 8.81% and Japanese women was 7 cases accounting for 2.98%. The number of GHQ- 12 cases were higher in Chinese women than in Japanese women. Through Logistic regression analysis, dehvery experience, having job or not, having family support or not, having someone looking after baby or not, the degree of physical pain are related factors were influencing factors of postpartum depression.Conclusions The incidence of postpartum depression of Chinese women was higher than Japanese women. Having no job is the risk factor of postpartum depression. The factors of eutocia, having someone looking after baby, the lower degree of physical pain were protective factors.

Objective:To compare the time domain and the frequency domain of speech-evoked auditory brainstem response measured by stimulation of left and right ears, and to explore the difference and possible reasons of neural coding for speech from different ears in auditory brainstem.Method:Speech-ABRs to syllable /da/ of 31 healthy adults were recorded. Statistical analysis was performed on time-domain parameters, such as latencies and amplitudes of featured peaks, and frequency-domain ones, such as amplitudes of the fundamental frequency and the first formant of speech-ABRs ranging from 20-50 ms. A scoring criterion to grade the appearance of featured waves was proposed for waveform evaluation.Result:There were no significant difference for the latencies of binaural featured peaks and amplitudes of feature peaks(except peaks A and O). The waveform scores of right ear were greater than that of left ear. The amplitudes of fundamental frequency of binaural waves were both greater than that of the first formant. There was no significant difference of amplitudes of fundamental frequency and the first formant between two ears.Conclusion:The origins and distributions of speech-ABR are essentially symmetrical in brainstem in contrast with the hemisphere asymmetry of speech.
