To observe the clinical efficacy of nicorandil for treating the patient with cardiac syndrome X (CSX) and its impact on vascular endothelial function. Methods: A total of 140 CSX patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: Control group, the patients received conventional anti-angina therapy and Nicorandil group, based on conventional anti-angina therapy, the patients received additional oral nicorandil treatment. n=70 in each group. All patients received resting emission computed tomography (ECT) and treadmill exercise ECG stress test (TET). Blood levels of endothelin (ET-1), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and nitric oxide (NO) were examined before and 3 months after treatment. Results: Compared with pre-treatment condition, the attack frequency of angina pectoris and positive rate of ECT were decreased after treatment in both groups, P<0.05; in Nicorandil group, the suspicious positive rate and positive rate of TET were reduced after treatment, P<0.05. Compared with Control group, Nicorandil group had the much lower suspicious positive rate and positive rate of TET after treatment, P<0.05. Blood tests indicated that compared with pre-treatment condition, ET-1 and hs-CRP were decreased, NO was increased after treatment in both groups, all P<0.05; blood levels of ET-1, hs-CRP and NO were different between 2 groups after treatment, all P<0.05. Conclusion: Nicorandil could inhibit inflammatory factors, elevate endothelial function and therefore improve micro vascular angina symptoms, increase exercise tolerance obviously.

Objective To assess the effect and influencing factors on 131I treatment for cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM) after operation in patients with PTC.Methods PTC patients (n =117;45 males,72 females;average age (45.17± 15.50) years) with postoperative cervical LNM from January 2010 to December 2014 were analyzed retrospectively.LNM was diagnosed by surgical pathology,imaging results and clinical follow-up.Single factor analysis was performed in age,gender,operation mode,TNM stage,131I treatment time and other factors.The results for 131I treatment effect included CR,PR,NC.Two-sample t test and x2 test were used.Results Among the 117 PTC patients with postoperative LNM,53 (45.3％) cases had non-131 I-avid metastasis.Fifty of the 64 (54.7％) patients with 131I-avid metastasis were treated with 131I.Nineteen patients (38.0％) achieved CR,22 (44.0％) achieved PR,and 9 (18.0％) showed invalid results.Fourteen of the 64 patients underwent another cervical lymph node dissection.Nine patients achieved CR,5 patients achieved PR,and 4 PR patients were then treated with 131I and finally achieved CR.Single factor analysis showed that the influencing factors of non-131I-avid lymph node included patients' age (t =3.459),serum Tg level (x2 =6.698) and metastasis with 1s F-FDG uptake (x2 =26.928;all P＜0.05).The influencing factors of 131I treatment effect included lymph node dissection procedure (x2 =6.487),unilateral or bilateral lesion (x2=5.187) and LNM size (x2=8.099;all P＜0.05).Conclusions 131I treatment is ineffective for nearly 50％ of patients with non-131I-avid LNM.The influencing factors of 131I treatment effect include the lymph node dissection procedure,unilateral or bilateral lesions and LNM size.

Objective To find out the cut-off value of rose bengal plate agglutination test(RBPT) in rapid diagnosis of brucellosis.Methods From May to June 2009,398 people who came to the outpatient department of Inner Mongolia Center for Endemic Disease Control and Research were diagnosed brucellosis by RBPT and tube agglutination test (SAT).Tube agglutination test as a gold standard,rose bengal plate agglutination test,its authenticity and reliability were evaluated.Results Taking positive predictive value 100.0％ as the selection standard,the cut-off value of RBPT was ++ which could be used to diagnose brucellosis.The sensitivity was 83.3％; the specificity was 100.0％; the Youden index was 0.832; and the compliance rote was 89.9％.Conclusion The cut-off value ++ of RBPT to diagnosis brucellosis is worthy of clinical promotion.

ObjectiveTo analysis the epidemic tendency of the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA).MethodsClinical data of patients from August 2004 to August 2005 were analyzed retrospectively.Results62 Staphylococcus aureus were isolated,and the MRSA isolated rate was 59%.The MRSA patients tended to complex infection.ConclusionThe infection caused by MRSA is serious.It is necessary to take effective measures to control the MRSA prevalence.

The comparative analysis of the biological characterization and the genetic background study of EV71 circulating strains is commonly recognized as basic work necessary for development of an effective EV71 vaccine. In this study, we sequenced five EV71 circulating strains, isolated from Fuyang, Hefei, Kunming and Shenzhen city of China and named them FY-23, FY-22, H44, K9 and S1 respectively. The sequence alignment demonstrated their genotypes be C4. The genetic distance of the VP1 gene from these isolates suggested that they were highly co-related with genetic identity similar to other previously reported EV71 strains in China. Additionally, these strains were identified to display some obvious proliferation dynamics and plaque morphology when propagated in Vero cells. However, a distinctive difference in pathogenic ability in neonatal mice was found. Some differences in cross neutralization test & immunogenic analysis were also found. All these results are related to the biological characterization of circulating EV71 strains in China and aid in the development of an EV71 vaccine in the future.

ObjectiveTo compare the effect of three serological methods for detection of Yersina pestis F1 antibody.MethodsF1 antibody of Yersinapestis was detected with the methods of enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(EL1SA),indirect hemagglutination assay(IHA) and gold-immunochromatography assay (GICA),respectively.ResultsThe highest antibody titer was 1 ∶ 5120 by ELISA and 1 ∶ 640 by IHA.Meanwhile,the highest antibody titer of GICA was 1∶ 1280.ConclusionsEL1SA is the most sensitive method in detection of Yersina pestis F1 antibody.The sensitivity of GICA is low and that of IHA is the lowest of three serological methods.

Currently, the herbal prescription therapy for corresponding constitutional diseases is a common constitution regulating method. This method has an obvious effect in treating and regulating constitution-related diseases. However, for people who do not have disease, they prefer to regulate constitution with dietary therapy. In this paper, the researchers came up with a design method of constitution regulating and healthcare foods based on medicinal property combination mode of clinical empirical formulas. With "Yupinfeng San", a common formula for Qi-insufficiency constitution and specific endowment constitution, as the example for constitution regulating and healthcare foods, the researchers proved the effectiveness and rationality of healthcare food schemes in terms of the efficacy of single herb and the modern pharmacological study.
