Objective To evaluate the accuracy and feasibility of estimation of left ventricular dp/dtmax by continuous-wave Doppler mitral regurgitation velocity curve versus cardiac catheterization in patients with mitral incompetence. Methods One hundred and five patients with mitral incompetence were enrolled in this study. The Doppler spectrum of mitral regurgitation velocity was recorded with a speed of 100mm/s. The velocities and time of two points on the ascending slope of the spectrum were calculated directly in order to estimate left ventricular dp/dtmax. In 40 patients, left ventricular pressure and dp/dtmax were measured with cardiac catheterization. Results The correlation coefficient between Doppler dp/dtmax and catheterization dp/dtmax was 0.84 (P

To investigate the relationship between transcription factor and the change of protein expression levels in heart failure. Methods Bioinformatic method was used to analyze the data of binding-sites on the 5 ' flaking regions of four genes whose mRNA level changed in failing heart from three databases about nucleic acid-EMBL, transcriptional regulation factor-TRANSFAC and protein-SWISS-PORT.The expression level of selected transcription factor was determined by immunohischemical method.Results Nine transcription factors were inferred to influence the proteins' levels in occurrence and development of heart failure.Serum response factor (SRF) was selected from the nine factors and assayed. The results showed that there was a higher level of SRF in healthy group than in chronic heart failure (CHF), and the level was associated with the degree of CHF. It was also found that there was a relative higher level of SRF in the acute myocardial infarction (AMI) than that in CHF, but which was lower than the healthy. Conclusion It showed that SRF had a quantitative change in the development of heart failure, and suggested SRF might play an important regulative role in heart failure. The expression changes of proteins related to myocardial function might be regulated by the quantitative change of transcription factor(s).

AIM:To investigate the efficacy of controlled continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis(CCC) technique in short axial length and shallow anterior chamber eyes.METHODS:Sixty-eight patients(68 eyes) with short axial length and shallow anterior chamber were included.The routine CCC technique was used in 32 cases (32 eyes) and controlled CCC technique was used in 36 cases (36 eyes).The success rate and complication were compared between two groups. RESULTS:The success rate of the routine technique group and controlled technique group was 53. 13% and 86.11% respectively. Incomplete CCC leading to posterior capsule tears was 9.38% and zero in two groups respectively.CONCLUSION: Controlled CCC technique can increase the success rate and reduce complications in short axial length and shallow anterior chamber eyes.KEYWORDS:phacoemulsification; continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis; complication

Objective To study hemodynamics of cerebral blood flow in newborns with asphyxia.Method Bilateral cerebral electrical admittance plethysmogram(BCEAP) was used to explore characteristics of cerebral blood flow in 20 healthy newborns and 20 newborns with asphyxia respectively from first to fourth day after birth.Results Both the ratio of Hs to b-S(Hs/ b-S) and index of admittance differential loop(ADL) Ⅰ+Ⅱ decreased significantly in newborns with asphyxia compared to normal control from first to fourth day after birth(P

A new phenethanol, (2'R)-4-(2', 3'-dihydroxy-3'-methyl-butanoxy)-phenethanol (1), along with other eleven known benzene derivatives (2-12) were isolated from the roots, stems and leaves of Clausena excavata (Rutaceae). Compounds 3 and 4 are new natural products, and compounds 5-8, 10-12 were isolated from C. excavata for the first time. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analyses including HSQC, COSY and HMBC experiments. 1 was tested for its cytotoxicities against A549, HeLa and BGC-823 cancer cell lines, and antimicrobial activities against Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus. The results showed that 1 did not exhibit cytotoxic and antimicrobial activities.

Objective To analyze and compare images of radial head fracture of 50 patients acquired by computed radiology(CR),coronal plane and axial plane of CT scan.And to determine routine plane of CT scan for radial head fracture.Methods Images of of radial head were acquired by CR,coronal plane and axial plane of CT scan on 50 patients with radial head fracture initially diagnosed by orthopedists. classify all the cases of radial head fracture into type Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ and Ⅳ according to the classification proposed by Mason.Results The positive incidence of CT and CR were 96%(48)and 78%(39) respectively.Cases of 94%o(47)through CT coronal scan and 82%(41)eases through CT axial scan were exactly classified.Conclusion The designation of the plane of CT scan is significant to the classification of the radial head fracture.Coronal plane CT scan can meet the need of imaging clinical classification and is recommended to be routine plane of radial head fracture.In order to ensure the exact classification axial plane and 3D reconstruction technique should be added for type Ⅲ and type Ⅳ of radial head fracture.

Objective To analyze CT findings correlated with pathologic findings in ectopic pancreas of the stomach.Methods CT scans of 15 surgically proven cases of ectopic pancreas of the stomach were reviewed,and enhanced CT scan was performed in 11 cases.CT findings were correlated with the pathologic findings.Results All cases had single lesion,and all lesions showed homogeneous density on plain scans without cystic or malignant changes.The size ranged from 1.3 to 3.1 cm,with mean diameter of (1.9? 0.2)cm.The lesions were round or oval in shape with broad base against the gastric wall.Two showed central umbilication sign.Only 2 cases were correctly diagnosed prior to operation and the rest were misdiagnosed or diagnosed indistinctly.The locations were in the gastric antrum in 11 cases,in the body in 3,and in fundus in one;The ectopic pancreas located in the greater curvature in 10,and in the lesser curvature in 5.Homogeneous or inhomogeneous strong enhancement similar to the pancreas was seen in 8 cases and they consisted mainly of pancreatic acini with the same histologic features as the pancreas.Three cases showed poor enhancement and consisted mainly of ducts and hypertrophied muscle,pancreatic acini were a minor component.Conclusion Ectopic pancreas of the stomach showed characteristic locations with the findings of snhmucosal diseases.Different enhancing patterns were correlated with their pathologic findings.
