ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence o f erectile dysfuction (ED) in Beijing urban ared,and to study the influence of dem ographic and other risk factors.MethodsUsing systemic epidemiological method, 1247 married men in Beijing urban area were selected by two-stage sample methods.General condition, health status, medications, smok ing and lifestyle was collected by trained interviewers.A self-administered sex ual activity questionnaire (IIEF-5) was used to characterize erectile potency. ResultsThe prevalence rate of ED of married men in Bei jing is 39.1%,and the prevalence rate of ED over 40 years is 54.5%.ED was strong ly correlated with age,especially for men over 60 years.The prevalence rate of c omplete ED in 60～69 years group is nearly 5 times as in 50～59 years group.The ot her important factors correlated with ED include diabetes,vascular disease and s o on.ConclusionsThe prevalence of ED in Beijing urban area and the important risk factors are similar to those reported.Whereas the pr evalence rate of complete ED over 60 years is significantly higher.

It was an dideal model of respiratory distress syndyomeinduccd in 59 rabbits by Ⅳ oleic acid injection. Pulmonary hemodynamics, cardiac impedance paramcters were measured, microemboli and leukocytcs were abtained directly from the pulmonary microcirculation by use of the retrograde perfusion method. The results showed that pulmonary hemodynamics were changed significantly, but did not correlate with development of pulmonary edema. It was found that basic impedance (Zo) increased, stroke volume (SV), cardiac output (CO) and cardiac index (CI) all decreased (P

Objective To study the polysaccharides from dried rhizome of Ligusticum chuanxiong.Methods DEAE-Cellulose and gel-filtration chromatography were used to isolate and purify the polysaccharides,whose structures were characterized by chemical and spectral methods.Results Four homogeneous polysaccharides,named LCP-1,LCP-2,LCP-3,and LCP-4 were obtained from the water extract of L.chuanxiong.Four structures were investigated to be complicated polysaccharied fractions,with the molecular weights of 3.1?10~4,5.2?10~4,9.0?10~4,and 3.6?10~4,respectively,then estimated by GPC.Conclusion The four polysaccharides are obtained from this plant for the first time.

Methods TRAIL receptors m RNA were tested by means of RT-PCR and Northern Blot in bladder transitional ce ll cancer tissue. Results The expression of death recept or 4 (DR4) and death receptor 5 (DR5) have been certificated in bladder transiti onal cell cancer and normal bladder tissue,decoy receptor 1 (DcR1) expressed onl y in normal bladder tissue. Conclusions TRAIL gene may p lay an important role in the apoptosis of bladder transitional cell cancer.

Objective To verify whether the extracellular domain of flt 1 has anti angionesis activity in vivo. Methods A recombinant plasmid pcDNA 3.1/flt 1 n3 was transfected into the human bladder carcinoma EJ cell by lipofectamin, which was constructed by inserting the N terminal first three IgG like domain of VEGF receptor flt 1 (flt 1 n3 ) into eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA 3.1. Results The rflt 1 was functionally expressed in stably transfected EJ and the product secreted in the medium could be specifically bind to rhVEGF165.The result showed that the bladder cancer transfected with rflt 1 had a lower microvessle density than the control. Conclusions It is proved that the expressed rflt 1 n3 can inhibit tumor growth and angiogenesis in nude mice model.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects and safety of Xingnaojing injection combined with butylphthalide on neuro-logical function,cognitive function,coagulation function and living activity. METHODS:A total of 106 patients with middle cere-bral artery infarction in Wuhan University People's Hospital during Jun. 2014-Dec. 2015 were divided into control group and obser-vation group according to random number table,with 53 cases in each group. Besides routine symptomatic treatment,control group was given Butylphthalide soft capsules 0.2 g,po,tid. Observation group was additionally given Xingnaojing injection 20 mL added into 0.9% Sodium chloride injection 250 mL,ivgtt,qd. Both groups were treated for 14 d. The neurological function score (NI-HSS,NFDS),cognitive function score (MoCA,MMSE),coagulation function indexes (PT,APTT,FIB),BI score were ob-served in 2 groups before and after treatment. The occurrence of secondary remote damage and ADR were recorded. RESULTS:Eight patients withdrew from the study,including 3 patients of control group and 5 of observation group. Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in neurological function scores(NIHSS,NFDS),cognitive function scores(MoCA,MMSE),coag-ulation function indexes or BI scores between 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,NIHSS,NFDS scores and FIB of 2 groups were decreased significantly compared to before treatment,and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). MoCA,MMSE,BI scores in 2 groups were increased significantly,and PT and APTT in 2 groups were prolonged significantly,and the observation group was significantly higher or longer than the control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). The incidence of secondary remote damage in observation group (11.3%) was significantly lower than control group (41.5%),with statistical significance (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:For middle cerebral artery infarction,the application of Xingnaojing injection combined with butylphthalide can reduce the risk of remote damage,promote the recovery of neurological function and cognitive func-tion,and improve coagulation function and living activity with good safety.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of testosterone supplementation for partial androgen deficiency in middle-aged men. Methods This prospective,double-blind,placebo-controlled,randomized clinical trial was conducted in our hospital.A total of 179 patients (mean age,41.8 years) were randomly divided into study group (n=136) and control group (n=43).The 136 patients in study group received andriol (80 mg,twice a day) for 3 months;while the 43 patients in control group received no special treatment.The changes of partial androgen deficiency in aging male (PADAM) scores,serum total testosterone (TT),free-T (fT) and relevant sexual hormone levels were assessed before and after treatment. Results In study group the PADAM scores at 1 and 3 months after treatment were significantly improved compare with those before treatment (P0.05). Conclusions Partial androgen deficiency in middle-aged men is clinically exist and testosterone supplementation for this condition is safe and effective.

Objective To study the influencing factors of postoperative cognitive dysfunction ( POCD) in elderly patients after knee joint replacement. Methods 165 cases of elderly patients undergo-ing knee replacement surgery were recruited in the study. According to whether there was POCD,the patients were divided into POCD group (35 cases) and non POCD group (130 cases).The gender,age,educational level,medical history,physical exercise,operation mode( cruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty and poste-rior stabilized total knee arthroplasty) ,operation time,blood loss,preoperative depression score and postoper-ative pain score were recorded and compared.The logistic multiveariate regression analysis was conducted to analyze the risk factors of POCD in elderly patients with knee replacement. Results (1)There were statis-tically significant differences in the total score of MoCA, visual space and executive function,naming and de-laying recall between non-POCD group and POCD group after the operation ( Z=-5. 327, P=0. 000;Z=-3.140, P=0.002;Z=-2.910, P=0.004;Z=-3.333, P=0.001). (2)The results of logistic multiveariate regression analysis showed the age>70 years old ( OR=3.708,95%CI =1.037-13.261, P<0.05) ,hyperten-sion ( OR=5.250,95%CI =1.787-15.423, P<0.05),diabetes ( OR=6.560,95%CI =1.418-30.345, P<0.05) ,preoperative depression ( OR=4.648,95%CI =1.290-16.744, P<0.05) and postoperative pain score>4 ( OR=3.149,95%CI=1.072~9.251, P<0.05) were risk factors of POCD,and physical exercise ( OR=4.330,95%CI =1.294-14.488, P<0.05) and CR-TKA( OR=0.187,95%CI =0.045-0.781, P<0.05) were the protective factors of POCD. Conclusion The overall level of cognitive function in elderly patients after knee replacement surgery is low. The advanced age,hypertension,diabetes,lack of physical exercise,choice of operation method,postoperative pain and preoperative depression are important influence factors of POCD.
