Objective To investigate regional ventricular long-axis velocity and adjacent intraventricular flow velocity using dual-pulse wave(PW) Doppler echocardiography synchronously,and to analyze the coupling relationship between regional ventricular long-axis strain and adjacent intraventricular pressure gradients in normal cases using dual-PW Doppler echocardiography.Methods Eighty-six normal subjects aged 19～66 years [mean age (37.49 ± 11.97)years] underwent routine echocardiography and dualPW Doppler echocardiographic exam.Total 18 segments were sampled using dual-PW Doppler (PW/TDI mode) images at basal,mid and apical levels on three standard apical views,and electrocardiogram was recorded simultaneously.Peak early diastolic velocity (emax),peak late diastolic velocity (amax),peak early mitral diastolic inflow velocity (Emax),regional peak early diastolic velocity (Em),regional peak late diastolic velocity (Am) and regional peak early diastolic inflow velocity (E) were measured simultaneously in the same one cardiac cycle.Myocardial variations of left ventricular segments were observed.Em,Am and E of different levels from different ventricular wall were analyzed.The co-relationship between regional ventricular long-axis strain and adjacent intraventricular pressure gradients were calculated and analyzed.Results ①Regional myocardial velocity and regional peak early diastolic inflow velocity in normal subjects declined from basal to apical segments gradually at the same ventricular wall (P ＜ 0.01).② Emax was correlated with emax(r =0.418,P ＜0.001),and E was correlated with Em (posterior septum,r =0.610,P ＜0.001 ；anterior wall,r =0.499,P ＜0.001).③There was a medium correlation between normal longaxis strain in segments and adjacent intraventricular pressure gradients (the global,r =0.412,P ＜0.001 ；posterior septum,r =0.319,P ＜0.005).Conclusions The acquirement of E and Em by dual-PW Doppler showed downtrend of segmental wall movement and regional blood flow from basal segment to apex.Emax is correlated with e E is correlated with Em,and long-axis strain at segments is correlated with adjacent intraventricular pressure gradients partly.Dual-PW Doppler might provide a potential method for the more precise evaluation of left ventricular fluid-solid coupling during diastole.

Aim To investigate the protective effects of polysaccharides from the rhizomorph of Armillaria mella(AMP-1) on alloxan injured INS-1 cells.Methods Graded concentrations of AMP-1(2,10,50,100,500,1 000 mg?L-1) were added into the culture medium of alloxan injured INS-1 cells.The survival rate was measured by MTT assay.The amount of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in different concentrations of AMP-1 was determined by radioimmunoassay(RIA).SOD and NOS activity,NO,MDA and GSH production were assayed colorimetrically.Results AMP-1 could reduce oxidative injuries induced by alloxan in INS-1 cells.The survival rate of cells treated with AMP-1 increased significantly.In the presence of 5.6 mmol?L-1 or 16.7 mmol?L-1 glucose,AMP-1(50,100,500,1 000 mg?L-1)increased glucose-induced insulin secretion in INS-1 cells in a dose-dependent manner.NOS levels and the production of NO and MDA decreased significantly by AMP-1,while SOD levels and the production of GSH increased.Conclusions AMP-1 promoted glucose-induced insulin secretion in INS-1 cells by increasing the abilities of scavenging the free radicals induced by alloxan.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of the combination ofJiangtang decoction and insulin in the treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus in children.Methods A total of 43 children with type 1 diabetes mellitus were enrolled and randomly allocated to either a insulin group (control group) and a insulin plusJiangtang decoction group (treatment group) using the table of random digits, with 23 patients in the control group and 20 in the treatment group. The patients in the control group were treated with insulin, and those in the treatment group were administrated withJiangtangdecoction on the basis of the treatment in the control group for 2 months. Body mass index (BMI), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), postprandial blood glucose (PBG) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) were measured.Results The levels of FPG, PBG and HbA1c were significantly decreased in the treatment group (twere 3.376, 54.493, and 2.798, respectively; allP<0.01), and the PBG level was significantly decreased in the control group (t=29.714,P=0.000). The levels of FPG, PBG and HbA1c in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (twere 2.715, 2.191 and 5.627, respectively;P<0.05 orP<0.01). There was no difference in BMI between the treatment group and the control group (t=0.159,P=0.874). The proportion of patients with HbA1c <7.5% in the treatment group (60.0%, 12/20) was higher than that in the control group (26.1%, 6/23;χ2=5.055,P=0.025).Conclusion Combination ofJiangtang decoction and insulin can decrease the level of FPG, PBG and HbAlc, and its therapeutic effect is superior to insulin alone for type 1 diabetes in children.

With the wide application of contrast media in modem medicine,contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) has attracted more clinical attention.Renal ischemia and renal tubular toxicity have been considered to be the pathogenesis of CIN.The most promising biomarkers,except for serum creatinine,include neutrophil gelatinase associated lipocalin (NGAL),cystatin C (Cys C),kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1),urine N-acetyl beta-D amino glucosidase (NAG) and micro molecular RNA (microRNA).Before use of contrast media for angiography,both the patient's own risk factors and the contrast-associated risk factors should be carefully evaluated.The patient's own risk factors include basic renal function,diabetes,anemia,homocysteine,etc.The contrast-associated risk factors include the osmotic pressure,viscosity,dosage,application frequency of the used contrast agent,etc.At present,hydration therapy is still the main method for CIN,and other therapeutic methods include medication,such as statins,vasodilators,antioxidants,traditional Chinese medicine,etc.,and blood purification therapy.This paper aims to make a brief summary about the research progress in CIN,focusing on its diagnosis,pathogenesis,risk factors and preventive measures.

Objective To investigate the relationship between CD40,Ki-67,and CD34 expressions and clinical significance of gastric cancer.Methods The expressions of CD40,Ki-67,and CD34 were detected by immunohistochemistry in 80 cases of gastric carcinomas and adjacent mucosas.Results The high expression of CD40 was detected in 36.3％ (29/80) cases of gastric cancer tissues,and Ki-67 was 53.8％ (43/80).The high expression of CD40 was related to lymph node metastasis,depth of invasion,and the patient's prognosis.The high expression of Ki-67 was related to histological differentiation,depth of invasion,vascular invasion,and lymph node metastasis (P ＜ 0.05).Expression of CD40 was positively related to Ki-67 and CD34 in gastric carcinomas (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The high expressions of CD40,Ki-67,and CD34 in gastric cancers are related to the tumor proliferation,tumor angiogenesis,and the prognosis of patients.

Aim To discuss the impact of important ac-tive ingredient of garlic diallyl sulfide———DATS on platelet activating factor (PAF ) mediated melanoma metastasis and its mechanisms.Methods ①MTT was used to test the effect of different concentrations of DATS on B16F10 and A375 melanoma cell growth number;②Scratch test and transwell were employed to test the effect of different concentrations of DATS on B16F10 and A375 melanoma cell migration;③ West-ern blot was used to test the effect of DATS on expres-sion of MMP-2,ERK,p38 induced by PFA;④Intrave-nous injection of tumor metastasis model was used to check the inhibition of DATS in PAF-mediated melano-ma metastasis.Results B16F10 cells relative growth rate fell to 73.21% and 48.78%,respectively,when DATS concentration reached 50 and 100 μmol·L-1 . DATS inhibited the levels of PAF-induced migration of melanoma cells B16F10 and vertical migration signifi-cantly,and inhibited B16F10 cells migration induced by PAF through inhibiting the expression of MMP-2, paxillin protein,FAK and other proteins.Conclusion DATS can significantly inhibit PAF-induced tumor metastasis, which is related to the inactivation of MAPKs.
