Vascular vertigo is a common vertigo.Vertebral artery dominance is a vascular phenomenon,and its mechanism remains unclear.It causes basilar artery changes and hemodynamic changes in posterior circulation.Vertebral artery dominance may trigger vascular vertigo through a variety of mechanisms.

With the development of society and medical science,the medical arena should develop with the times,transform medical ethics idea, construct new medical ethics view to unceasingly promote the medical ethics progress and the comprehensive,coordinated, and sustainable development of medical industry.This article discussed the principle,significance and several related problems of new medical ethics view in order to make direct instruction for the constnuction of new medical ethics view.

Recent studies have demonstrated that hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for stroke,which may cause vascular endothelial injury by multiple mechanisms,destroy blood coagulation and fibrinolytic systems,and influence on lipid metabolism.Methylenetetra hydrofolate reductase(MTHFR)is a key enzyme of homocysteine metabolic pathway in the human body.If it is insufficient or its activity decreases,it will directly result in the accumula tion of homocysteine in the human body,and callse hyperhomocysteinemia.Although a number of studies have found that MTHFR gene mutation is the main cause of MTHFR insufficient and its activity decrease,the correlation between MTHFR gene mutation and ischemic cerebral vascular disease is quite controversial now.This article reviews the relationship between MTHFR gene polymorphisms and ischemic stroke.

The effects of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) on number and activity of vascular endothelial cells (VEC) from hone marrow stem cells (BMSC) of mice were investigated. 100 μ/ml AGEs markedly inhibited differentiation of BMSC into VEC with decreased vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 positive cells, hut 20 μg/ml AGEs had no effect.

With the development of neuroimaging the detection rate of basilar artery tortuosity is significantly high.The occurrence and development processes of basilar artery tortuosity are affected by age,basilar artery length,vertebral artery dominance,and other factors.Basilar artery tortuosity may influence the blood supply of posterior circulation and cause brainstem and cranial nerve pressure leading to clinical symptoms.

Large artery intracranial occlusive disease is a important and common vascular lesion type.It is closcly associated with the onset and recurrence of ischemic stroke; however,at present there are many inadequacies in the study of its etiology and treatment.This article mainly reviews the understanding process of the large artery intracranial occlusive disease,present research results and problems need to be solved.

A prospective study was performed to evaluate the diagnostic value of B- mode ultrasonography and inferior vena cavograme and the value of PTA in Budd-Chiari syndrome.One hundred sixty-eight cases including ninety-two men and seventy-six women, age ranged 11～63(mean,34.8 years).Among them 65 were treated with PTA or stent placement.The authors gave a minute and detail description of clinical feature,ultrasono- graphy,inferior vena cava or hepatic venogram,CT and other radiologic demonstration of Budd-Chiari syndrome retrospectively.Four types of Budd-Chiari syndrome were demon- strated based on anatomy,B-mode ultrasonography,inferior vena cavogram and hepa- tovenograme.(1)IVC membranous webs(76 subjects,45.2%),(2)IVC segmental stenosis or occlusion(65 subjects,38.7%),(3)hepatic vein occlusion(10 subjects,6. 1%),(4)mixed type(17 subjects,10%).The treatment of the Budd-Chiari syndrome with percutaneous transluminal balloon dilatation and stent placememnt of inferior vena cava or hepatic vein was safe and satisfied.Its long-term effectiveness(follow up 3-5 years)is al- so satisfactory.

Two patients of Budd-Chiari syndrome,suffering from the anemalons drainage of inferior vena cava into left atrium were reported including one male of 41 years old and female of 42. togectll with labial cyanosis,fingers and toes symptoms of portal hypertension and IVC hypertension. The obstruction of IVC wastreated with balloon catheter hypertension and IVC hypertension the disrotreaed also after PTA.The echo wasn't discovered with Dopple ultrasound after PTA.

Objective To conduct the global assessment of methylated DNA status of CpG islands. Methods The modified AIMS (amplification of inter-methylated sites) technology was adopted, which mainly included 3 groups of isoschizomers (methylation-sensitive and methylation-insensitive restricted enzymes). The comparison analysis of methylome among 3 concentrations (6%, 8%, 10%) of polyacrylamide with 8M urea denaturing sequencing gel and the digestion effect among 3 groups of isoschizomers were carried out. The results of personal molecular imager FX system and autoradiography were also compared. Results Genome-wide detection of methylome of CpG islands might be the technical basis for the subsequent analysis. The resolving power and scope bands in 6% polyacrylamide denaturing sequencing gel were superior to those in gels with the other two concentrations. 3 groups of isoschizomers could meet the need of genome-wide detection of methylome of CpG islands. Personal molecular imager FX system and autoradiography could be used together, and they compensated each other. Conclusions The optimized AIMS technology is a kind of high-throughput method to analyze methylome, which is simple, specific, and easy to handle. The 3 groups of isoschizomers can cover most of CpG islands for genome-wide detection and get the ideal results. Only a small quantity of genome DNA is enough to meet the need of clinical detection.

BACKGROUND:The long-term contraction of skeletal muscle can lead to the decrease of resting potential, affect its contraction, and result in the occurrence of fatigue. Whether acupuncture and injury-free magnetic lifting needle are effective on the recovery of resting potential? OBJECTIVE: To observe and compare the influence on the recovery of resting potential of skeletal muscle by taking acupuncture and magnetic needle as the recovery means.DESIGN: A controlled study.SETTINGS: College of Physical Education, Shanxi Normal University;Binzhou College of Shandong Province.MATERIALS: Thirty experimental toads, which were provided by Beijing University of Physical Education, were randomly divided into acupuncture group (n=10), magnetic needle group (n=10), magnetic needle+pressing group (n=10). Left and right semitendinosus muscles were taken as controls.METHODS: The in vitro toad's semitendinosus muscles (experimental side and control side) were treated with electrostimulation for 40 minutes,and then the resting potential of skeletal muscular cells were measured with the intracellular glass microelectrode technique. After the electrostimulation, filiform needle acupuncture, magnetic needle, magnetic needle plus pressing were also given.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The resting potentials were observed before exercise, after electrostimulation and other treatments in the groups.RESULTS: ① The resting potentials of skeletal muscular cells after electrostimulation were decreased as compared with those before electrostimulation [experimental side: (59.48±7.37), (84.54±5.72) mV; control side:(59.43±7.14), (83.62±5.86) mV]. ② After the treatments of acupuncture,magnetic lifting needle, magnetic lifting needle plus pressing, the decreased resting potentials after electrostimulation were obviously recovered (P ＜ 0.01). ③ The recovered percentage of resting potential in the magnetic needle group was obviously smaller than those in the acupuncture group and magnetic needle+pressing group [(42.50±12.41)%, (53.71±10.93)%,(49.10±8.39)%, P ＜ 0. 01].CONCLUSION: Acupuncture, magnetic lifting needle, magnetic lifting needle plus pressing plays a role in promoting the recovery of resting potential of skeletal muscular cells after long-term electrostimulation, and the effect of simple magnetic needle is smaller than that of acupuncture and magnetic needle plus pressing.
