ObjectiveTo detect five periodontal pathogenic bacteria in coronary atherosclerotic plaques.MethodsAtherosclerotic plaque specimens were obtained from 101 patients who scheduled for coronary artery bypass graft surgery.The bacteria DNA was obtained from coronary atherosclerotic plaques using the chelex-100 method.The extracted DNA were examined by PCR.ResultsWithin the 101 pieces of atherosclerotic plaque samples Porphyromonas gingivalis( Pg,31% ),Tannerella forsythensis(Tf,42% ),Prevotella intermedia( Pi,26% ),Fusobacterium nucleatum( Fn,21% ),Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans( Aa,23% ).PCR products were sequenced and were compared with GenBank sequences,the homology was 99%-100%.ConclusionPeriodontitis might affect the development of atherosclerosis and there is a correlation between coronary heart disease and chronic periodontitis.

Objective:
The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between different genotypes of CYP2C19, ERCC2 and XRCC1 and clinical indexes of gastroesophageal reflux and hiatal hernia in Xinjiang.
Methods:
The clinical data of 101 patients with gastroesophageal reflux and hiatal hernia clinically diagnosed by people′s hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from January 2016 to December 2017 were prospectively studied, and Wilcoxon rank sum test was used to analyze the genotypes and relevant clinical indicators.
Results:
There was statistically significant difference in the distance of hiatal hernia between patients with CYP2C19 containing A/A homozygous genotype and those with other two genotypes (A/G or G/G) (
