Objective: To compare the therapeutic effect of aspirin and clopidogrel on coronary heart disease. Methods: From June 2016 to July 2017, 186 patients with coronary heart disease in the Third People's Hospital of Yuyao were divided into control group and observation group according to different treatment methods, with 93 cases in each group.Both two groups were treated with routine symptomatic therapy, the control group was given aspirin and the observation group was given clopidogrel.Biochemical indicators, cardiac function and adverse events were observed. Results: There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups before treatment(all P>0.05). The platelet aggregation rate and activation time of partial thrombin of the observation group were (38.11±2.15)% and (48.21±3.50)s, respectively, which were better than those of the control group(t=48.819, 18.752, all P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in prothrombin activity and prothrombin time between the two groups(all P>0.05). The probability of grade Ⅳ and grade Ⅰ in the observation group was 8.60% and 38.71%, respectively, which was significantly different from those in the control group(χ²=5.243, 6.541, all P<0.05). The incidence rate of adverse events in the observation group(1.08%) was lower than that in the control group(7.53%), and the difference was statistically significant(χ²=4.072, P<0.05). Conclusion Clopidogrel is more effective than aspirin in the treatment of coronary heart disease.It can significantly improve the coagulation function, cardiac function, and it is safe and with less adverse reactions.

Objective: To investigate the effect of upper limb rehabilitation robot assisted training on the event-related potential P300, upper limb function and quality of life in stroke patients. Methods: A total of 90 stroke patients admitted to Yuyao People's Hospital from May 2017 to January 2018 were randomly divided into control group(45 cases) and observation group(45 cases) according to the digital table.The control group received conventional rehabilitation exercise, and the observation group was supplemented by Motorika ReoGo upper limb rehabilitation robot on the basis of the control group.The P300 latency, P300 amplitude, upper limb function and quality of life of the two groups were compared before and after treatment. Results: Before training, the latency of P300, amplitude of P300, upper limb function and quality of life score had no statistically significant differences between the two groups(all P>0.05). After training, the latency of P300, amplitude of P300 in the control group were (389.54±28.19)ms, (2.79±0.23)μV, respectively, which in the observation group were (356.25±24.54)ms, (3.06±0.19)μV, respectively.The latency of P300 in both two groups was significantly shorter than those before training(t=4.490, 12.342, all P<0.05), and the amplitude of P300 were significantly higher than those before training(t=-3.476, -10.061, all P<0.05), which of the observation group were significantly better than those of the control group(t=-5.975, 6.071, all P<0.05). After training, the Fugl-Meyer scale(FMA) and Barthel scale(MBI) scores of the control group were (35.62±9.72)points, (81.35±10.96)points, respectively, which of the observation group were (44.65±11.23)points, (89.63±11.59)points, respectively.The FMA and MBI scores in the two groups were significantly higher than those before training(t=-5.107, -8.595, -9.039, -11.417, all P<0.05), which of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group(t=4.078, 3.482, all P<0.05). Conclusion Motorika ReoGo assisted upper limb rehabilitation robot can significantly improve P300 latency, amplitude, upper limb function and quality of life in stroke patients.

Objective This study aims to monitor the mRNA ratio of podocin to nephrin (PNR) in glomerular podocytes of early diabetic kidney disease (DKD) rat models. The feasibility of using PNR as an early diagnostic indicator for DKD was evaluated by comparing it with the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (U-ACR). Additionally, the early intervention effects of valsartan and fosinopril sodium on DKD were compared. Methods The DKD rat model was established by caudal intravenous injection of streptozotocin (STZ) at a dosage of 60 mg/kg. The early changes in PNR and U-ACR were monitored and compared, followed by timely intervention with valsartan and fosinopril sodium. Hematoxylin and eosin staining (HE) was used to observe glomerular structure, while transmission electron microscopy examined the ultrastructure of glomerular podocytes. ResultsPNR reached the critical value(≥1) on day 9 after modeling, earlier than U-ACR, which reached the critical value(≥30 mg/g) on day 15. Intervention with valsartan and fosinopril sodium on day 9 after modeling significantly reduced U-ACR (P < 0.05), with low-dose valsartan showing better results than high-dose (P>0.05), while high-dose fosinopril sodium outperformed low-dose (P>0.05). Both low doses of valsartan and fosinopril sodium significantly reduced PNR (P<0.05), with no significant effect observed for high doses. The interventions with valsartan and fosinopril sodium improved and maintained glomerular structure and podocyte arrangement. ConclusionPNR changes earlier than U-ACR, indicating its potential as an early diagnostic marker for DKD in rats. Early intervention with valsartan and fosinopril sodium demonstrates a therapeutic effect on DKD in rats.

Objective To evaluate the value of serum procalcitonin (PCT)on antibiotic use in treatment of community acquired pneumonia (CAP) in outpatient. Methods From November 2006 to February 2008, a total of 127 patients with CAP in outpatient were randomly assigned into two groups:PCT group(n=63)and control group(n =64). PCT levels of all patients were measured after study admission. On the base of similarly normal treatment, the control group received antibiotics according to the attending physicians and the PCT group were treated with antibiotics according to serum PCT levels: antibiotic treatment was applied with PCT level ≥ 0. 25 μg/L and was discouraged with PCT level < 0.25 μg/L. Clinical efficacy, rate of antibiotics use, duration courses and costs of antibiotics were observed. Results Clinical efficacy of the PCT group was similar with the control group (92.1% vs 87.5%, P >0.05) ;rate and costs of antibiotics use was lower, antibiotic duration of the PCT group was shorter than that ofthecontroigroup(P<0.05,P<0.001,P<0.001).Conclusion PCT could be used in treatment of CAP for antibiotic use in outpatient, which may reduce antibiotic use, shorten antibiotic duration and lower costs of antibiotic.

Objective To evaluate the predicting value of serum procaleitonin (PCT) in treatment of acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) in elderly patients. Methods A total of 267 elderly patients requiring hospitalization for AECOPD were randomly assigned into 2 groups: standard therapy group (standard group, n= 135) and PCT-guided group(PCT group, n= 132). Standard group received antibiotics according to the guideline of attending physicians and PCT group were treated with antibiotics according to serum PCT levels.Length of hospitalization, clinical efficacy, costs of hospitalization and antibiotics, rate of antibiotics use, hospital mortality, rate of exacerbation and rehospitalization, frequency of exacerbation within 1 year were observed. Results Length of hospitalization, clinical efficacy, hospital mortality, rate of exacerbation and rehospitalization, frequency of exacerbation within 1 year were similar in 2 groups(all P＞0.05);costs of hospitalization and antibiotics, rate of antibiotics use of PCT group[10 882 (3808-16 651)yuan, 6934 (2390-10 660)yuan, 76.5%] were lower than those of standard group[13 637(4650-19 730)yuan, 8589(3144-12 117)yuan, 87.4%] (all P＜0.05). Conclusions PCT guidance offers an advantage over standard therapy in reducing antibiotic use and in lowering the costs of hospitalization in treatment of AECOPD in elderly patients.

Objective To evaluate the clinical performance of the BACTEC Plus aerobic,BACTEC Lytic anaerobic,BacT/Alert aerobic and anaerobic blood culture media in detection of bloodstream infections.Methods Retrospective study was conducted.A total of four blood culture bottles from each inpatient with suspected bloodstream infections were collected and analyzed from June 2013 to September 2015 in Peking University People's Hospital.The four bottles,including BACTEC Plus aerobic,BACTEC Lytic anaerobic,BacT/Alert FA aerobic and BacT/Alert FN anaerobic media,and was incubated for 5 days in the BacT/Alert 3D and BACTEC FX instruments,respectively.Time to detection (TTD) and positive rate in detecting bacteria of the two systems were evaluated by Wilcoxon test and Chi-square test.Results Among 2 189 total cultures collected,20 were excluded because of blood shortage and 201 (9.27％) were positive for pathogens.The positive rates of BACTEC Plus aerobic media and BacT/Alert FA aerobic media were 75.3％ (140/186) and 69.4％ (129/186) (x2 =1.625,P=0.202),respectively.While,the positive rates of BacT/Alert FN anaerobic media and BACTEC Lytic anaerobic media were 81.8％ (99/121) and 63.6％ (77/121) for total organisms,respectively (x2 =10.083,P =0.001).A significant difference in TTD was detected in BACTEC Plus aerobic media[11.0 (8.0-16.0) h] and BacT/Alert FA aerobic media[13.9 (10.4-18.7) h] (Z =-5.240,P ＜ 0.001).BACTEC Lyric anaerobic media[8.0(7.0-10.0) h] had a shorter TTD (Z =-4.299,P ＜ 0.001) than BacT/Alert FN anaerobic media[11.3(9.3-12.7) h].The positive rates of BACTEC and BacT/Alert system were 74.13％ (149/201) and 74.63％ (150/201),respectively,compared with taking one set from each system.Conclusions BACTEC media has a shorter TTD and almost the same bacterial recovery,and lower false positive rate than the BacT/ Alert media.

Objective To evaluate the value of serum procalcitonin(PCT)on antibiotics use in treatment of acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease( AECOPD). Method From May 2004 to December 2006, a total of 235 patients requiring hospitalization for AECOPD were randomly assigned into two groups: standard therapy group(group A, n = 117)and PCT-guided group(group B, n = 118) .PCT levels of all patients were measured after hospital admission by an amplified cryptate emission technology assay. On the base of similarly normal treatment, group A received antibiotics according to the attending physicians,and group B were treated with antibiotics according to serum PCT levels:antibiotic treatment was applied with PCT level ≥0.25 ng/ml and was discouraged with PCT level ＜0.25 ng/ml. Length of hospitalization,clinical efficacy,costs of hospitalization and antibiotics, rate of antibiotics use, hospital mortality,rate of exacerbation and rehospitalization within 1 year were observed.

Results Clinical efficacy, hospital mortality, length of hospitalization, rate of exacerbation and rehospitalization within 1 year were similar in two groups (P =0.635,0.768,0.884,0.747,0.727) ;costs of antibiotics and hospitalization,rate of antibiotics use of PCT-guided group were lower than that of standard therapy group( P = 0.029,0.036,0.014). Conclusions PCT could be used in treatment of AECOPD for antibiotic use after hospital admission,which may reduce antibiotic use and lower costs of antibiotic and hospitalization.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between serum IL-4, IFN-gamma, IL-10 levels and the aetiology of juvenile-onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis. METHOD: Serum IL-4, IFN-gamma, IL-32 levels of 15 JORRP children were detected by use of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and compared with those of healthy control group. RESULT: Serum IL-4 levels were significantly higher in the JORRP children (P<0.01): (524.65 +/- 147.77)pg/ml in the JORRP children and (213.27 +/- 87.48) pg/ml in the healthy control group. Serum IFN-gamma levels were significantly lower in the JORRP children (P<0.01): (2.87 +/- 0.84) pg/ml in the JORRP children and (10.63 +/- 5.09) pg/ml in the healthy control group. Serum IL-32 levels were significantly lower in the JORRP children (P< 0.01): (2.47 +/- 1.60) pg/ml in the JORRP children and (9.08 +/- 2.66) pg/ml in the healthy control group. CONCLUSION 1) While the concentration of Th2 like cytokine IL-4 in children with JORRP was higher than that in control group, the concentration of Th1 like cytokine IFN-gamma in children with JORRP was lower than that in controls, indicating that the polarization of Th1 /Th2 T cell in children with JORRP; 2) The polarization of Th1/Th2 T cell may cause the reduction of the serum IL-32 as a proinflammatory role in host immunity system that could not eradicate HPVs because of lacking enough inflammatory stimulation.
