Chinese Circulation Journal 2015;(6):559-561
Objective: To compare the safety and efifcacy of rivaroxaban and warfarin for treating the patients with left ventricular thrombus. Methods: A total of 31 patients with left ventricular thrombus were studied, the patients were randomly divided into 2 groups:Warfarin group, n=16, the patients initially received oral warfarin and low molecular weight heparin at (2.5-3) mg/day, when the INR value reached 2.0-3.0, heparin was stopped and warfarin was continued, the INR value was monitored every 3 days for 3 times, when INR value was stably kept at 2.0-3.0, it was then monitored for every 2 weeks. Rivaroxaban group,n=15, the patients received oral rivaroxaban at 10 mg twice a day. All patients were followed-up for 3 months, the thrombus remission time, new onset of thrombosis, embolism and bleeding events during treatment period were compared between 2 groups. Results: The patients’ age, gender, complication, size of thrombus and medication were similar between 2 groups. Compared with Warfarin group, Rivaroxaban group had the shorter thrombus remission time, (60.00±5.50)d vs (71.00±8.50) d,P<0.01, while the new onset of thrombosis and embolism events as cerebral embolism and systemic embolism were similar between 2 groups, Warfarin group had slightly higher bleeding events, allP>0.05. Conclusion: Rivaroxaban had better effect than warfarin for treating the patients with left ventricular thrombus without increasing the risk of bleeding.

To observe possibility whether exfoliative cervical cell takes the place of cervical tissues for detection of human papilloma virus 16 and 18 types (HPV16 and HPV18). Polymerase chain reaction-restrictive fragment length polymorphism was used for analysis cervical tissues, single and double oxfoliative cervical cell samples of 127 cases of woman patients. Positive rates of HPV16 E6 Gene in single and double oxfoliative cervical cell are 34.64% and 40.73%, for HPV18 E6 gene 17.32% and 22.04%. In cervical tissues, 41.73% of HPV16 and 22.83% HPV18 special E6 genes was detected. There is no difference between cervical tissues and double oxfoliative cell samples. It is proved that double oxfoliative cervical cell sample can be used for detection of infection of HPV 16 and HPV 18 instead of cervical tissues.

Objectives:To investigate the effects of zinc supplements on the nutritional state of gut mucosa after major burns. Methods:Weanling rats were fed zinc deficient chows (zinc content: 1.6 ?g/g) for seven days to induce zinc deficient status. Then 20% TBSA deeper second degree scalds were made and the rats were divided into three groups fed on chows different in zinc contents. Zinc contents were 1.6 ?g/g, 24.7 ?g/g, 286.9 ?g/g respectively. A group of rats fed normal zinc content (24.7 ?g/g) diets before and after scalds was designed as control. Rats were killed on the eighth day after burns and certain sections of jejunum and ileum were resected. Vincristine was injected 6 hours before they were killed, which was supposed to block cell division in metaphase. DNA and protein contents as well as crypt cell production rate (CCPR) were calculated. Results: DNA contents and CCPR of jejunal mucosa were markedly improved in the group of zinc supplements. Protein contents were also improved to some extent. The same trend could be seen in ileac mucosa too. Conclusions: Zinc plays an important role on the nutritional states and proliferation of gut mucosal cells. To supplement zinc after major burns in rats with zinc deficent could help to repair the injured intestinal mucosa.

Objective: To evaluate the application of frontal flap in reconstructing the defect of nose, the clinical data of 12 cases were reported. Methods: Twelve patients with nasal skin cancers undertaking radical dissection of tumor accompanied frontal flap reconstructing one stage were reviewed retrospectively.Results: The overall following\|up rate was 100%, 10 of these patients curled slightly after reconstructing the nose, but influence of the nasal outline was little. Two cases were recurrent locally, one occurred 24 months after operation, the other occurred 38 months. Both of them received radiotherapy. Malformation arised after radiotherapy. The total successful rate of reconstruct nasal outlook was 83.33%, the 3\|year locally recurrent rate was 8.33%,5\|year survival rate ws 100%, 5\|year survival rate without tumor was 83.33%.Conclusion:The blood supply of frontal flap is abundance;healing up soon after reconstruction; the manipulation of surgery is simple and safe. It is worth applying this operation generally in clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the effects of rosuvastatin and lfuvastatin on patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) combing impaired glucose tolerance (IGT).
Methods: A total of 215 consecutive ACS patients combing IGT treated in our hospital from 2009-05 to 2011-05 were studied. The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups, Rosuvastatin group, the patients received rosuvastatin10mg/day, n=108 and Fluvastatin group, the patients received fluvastatin 40mg/day, n=107. The total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels before and at 6, 12, 24 months after medication, fasting blood glucose (FBG), 2-hour postprandial glucose (2hPBG) and the number of new-onset of diabetes patients were compared between 2 groups.
Results: After treatment, the TC, LDL-C levels were decreased (6, 12, 24 months) and the HDL-C level (12, 24 months), 2hPBG (24 months) were increased in both groups. Compared with Fluvastatin group, Rosuvastatin group had decreased TC and LDL-C (6, 12, 24 months), and increased LDL-C (24 months). With 6, 12, 24 months treatment, the blood lipids reached the standard were more in Rosuvastatin group than those in Fluvastatin group as 35.3%vs 26.1%, 36.4% vs 22.0%, 43.1% vs 31.8% respectively, all P<0.05. With 12 and 24 months treatment, the new-onset diabetes patients in Rosuvastatin group were 11 and 18, in Fluvastatin group were 12 and 17. With 12, 24 months treatment, FBG, 2hPBG levels and the number of new-onset diabetes patients were similar between 2 groups, P>0.05.
Conclusion: Compared with lfuvastatin, the conventional dose of rosuvastatin could better reduce the blood lipids level in ACS patients combing IGT, the effects for preventing ACS patients from IGT to diabetes were similar for both drugs.

Objective To investigate the distribution of aquaporin 4 (AQP4) and inwardly rectifying potassium channel 4.1 (Kir4.1) inthe astrocytes from human mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE). Methods Hippocampal specimens, including 10 cases of MTLE and 6cases of non-MTLE, were observed under optical and transmission electron microscopy. The distribution of AQP4 and Kir4.1 in astrocyteswas investigated with immunoflurescence. Results Compared with non-MTLE hippocampus, the main structural changes of MTLE includedremarkable hyperplasia astrocytes, serious swelling astrocytes and distinguished astrophy neurons. In non-MTLE hippocampus, immunoflurescencesignals of AQP4 and Kir4.1 were enriched along perivascular astrocyte end-feet domain. However, it reveals significant loss ofAQP4 and Kir4.1 in perivascular astrocyte end-feet domain in MTLE. Conclusion Loss of perivascular AQP4 and Kir4.1 in the humanMTLE may help to understand the roles of astrocyte in MTLE.

Objective To compare a novel mirror-overlap method with the traditional manual measurement and the subjective assessment in assessing breast symmetry after oncoplastic surgery.Methods 59 patients with breast cancer who underwent conservation/reconstruction surgery were recruited.The post-operative assessment for breast symmetry was conducted using manual measurement,subjective assessment by the patient,their family member and a nurse,and the mirror-overlap method respectively.The latter method involved using the Photoshop to assess the area differences in breast outlines and shadows created by a flashlight when bilateral images were overlapped in the axis of midline.Results The distance differences between bilateral breasts measured using manual method were negatively correlated with symmetric coefficients in the mirror-overlap method (P<0.05).There was a positive correlation between the average scores in the subjective assessment and symmetric coefficients of mirror-overlap method (P<0.05).Conclusion The mirror-overlap method is an easy,feasible and cheap method which collects 3D breast information and provides an effective approach to assess breast symmetry after oncoplastic surgery.
