Objective: The main purpose of percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) is to improve patients' quality of life.Many studies focus on the efficacy of PCI for angina relief,but rarely on the improvement of quality of life after PCI.We aim to investigate the quality of life in patients with coronary heart disease(CHD) 2 years after coronary stent implantation.Methods: A total of 457 CHD patients underwent coronary stent implantation,their quality of life investigated with The Short Form 36 Health Survey Questionnaires(SF-36) before and 2 years after the operation.Results: The results of various dimensions of SF-36 before and 2 years after the operation were as follows: physical function(PF)(56.47?26.05 vs 68.20 ? 20.18,P 0.05).Conclusion: Coronary stent implantation could significantly improve the long-term(2-year) quality of life of patients with coronary heart disease.

Objective:To evaluate the influence of complete or incomplete revascularization on the life quality of elderly patients with multivessel coronary artery disease. Methods:The study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data and the quality of life assessment result in the elderly patients with multivessel coronary artery disease,who were over 60 years,underwent percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) procedure from June 2003 to December 2004 in our center,and followed-up for 2 years with the 36 items short form health survey(SF-36).Results:All domains,except that for mental health,assessed by the SF-36 showed significantly higher scores after revascularization by PCI,and the scores in completely revascularized patients were higher than those in incompletely revascularized patients. Conclusion:PCI can significantly improve the quality of life and the improvement is better with complete than with incomplete revascularization.

Objective:To explore the effect of fortified human milk feeding on growth and complica-tions of infants with extremely and very low birth weight (ELBW/VLBW)during hospital stay by a pro-spective,random and controlled study.Methods:In the study,1 22 ELBW/VLBW infants were enrolled and divided into two groups.The infants fed with human breast milk,combined with human milk fortifi-cation (HMF)during hospital stay were named HMF group (n=62),and those fed exclusively with pre-mature formula were named premature formula feeding group (PF group,n=60 ).The data of the in-fants’growth (the velocity of increase on the weight,length,head circumference and upper arm circum-ference),the time of rebounding to birth weight,the time of needing intravenous nutrition,the time of hospitalizing,the proportion of extrauterine growth retardation (EUGR)during hospital stay,the level of hemoglobin,bone metabolism and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups. Results:Among the 1 22 infants included,(1 )the length increment in HMF group was higher than PF group [(0.89 ±0.23)cm/week vs.(0.79 ±0.34)cm/week,P=0.04];there were no significant differences in the weight gain,head circumference increment and upper arm circumference increment (P>0.05);(2)the age of rebounding to birth weight [(1 0.1 3 ±4.03)d vs.(8.03 ±3.28)d,P=0.002]and the duration of intravenous nutrition [(1 6.77 ±6.63)d vs.(1 4.23 ±4.1 5)d,P=0.01 ] in HMF group were longer than that in PF group,there were no significant differences between the two groups in the hospital stay and age achieved feeding;(3 )there were no significant differences between the two groups in the incidence rate of EUGR during hospital stay (P>0.05);(4)the level of calcium at birth in HMF group was lower than that in PF group [(2.1 9 ±0.22)mmol/L vs.(2.32 ±0.27) mmol/L,P=0.005 ],and the level of alkaline phosphatase (AKP)in HMF group at discharge was higher than in PF group [(363.98 ±1 22.49)mmol/L vs.(299.73 ±1 1 7.39)mmol/L,P=0.004];(5)the incidence of the feeding intolerance (6.5% vs.1 8.3%,P=0.04)and sepsis (4.8% vs. 1 6.7%,P=0.03)in HMF group were less than in PF group,there were no significant differences be-tween the two groups on the morbidity of necrotizing enterocditis,retinopathy of prematurity (ROP),and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)(P>0.05).Conclusion:HMF for premature infants may ensure the same growth pattern as those fed by premature formula,promote the calcium absorption,decrease the inci-dence of sepsis and feeding intolerance,and does not increase the incidence of necrotizing enterocolitis.

METHODS: The chromatographic condition,DB-WAX capillary column(30 m?0.53 mm,1 ?m).The column temperature programming was from 65 ?C to 155 ?C(at rate of 6 ?C/min).FID Detection.The temperatrue was at 230 ?C. RESULTS: The linear range of camphor was within 0.18 mg/mL-5.78 mg/mL(r=1.000 0,n=6).The average recovery was 98.05%,RSD=0.94%.The linear range of eucalyptol was within 0.06 mg/mL-1.92 mg/ml(r=(0.999 7),n=6).The average recovery was 98.99%,RSD=1.31%. CONCLUSION: This method can be used for quality control of Shidi Water

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of combined therapy of mild hypothermia and hibernation to treat severe brain injury. Methods24 patients with severe brain injury were randomly divided into combined therapy group and normothermia group. Glasgow Coma Scale scores of all the patients were in the range of 3 to 8. No later than 10 hours after their injury, hypothermia patients were given half dosage of No.1 hibernation cocktail and had been cooled by cooling blankets to 32℃-34℃ (rectal temperature) for 5 days, then to 35℃ for 24 hours, and slowly increased to their normal level. 3 days and 7 days after their admission, intracranial pressure,creatine phosphate kinase,partial pressure of arterial O2 and CO2, platelet and Na+,K+ were measured.7 days after their admission, Glasgow Outcome Scale scores of each patient and mortality of each group were measured. ResultsThe mortality of combined therapy group(25.0%) was significantly lower than that of normothermia group (66.6%,P<0.05). The decreased values of intracranial pressure, creatine phosphate kinase and platelet number of combined therapy group were all significantly higher than that of normothermia group respectively (P<0.05). There were no significant difference in mean artery pressure, blood electrolyte, and partial pressure of arterial O2 and CO2 between these two groups(P>0.05). ConclusionThe combined therapy of mild hypothermia and hibernation can effectively reduce the mortality of patients with severe brain injury as it is much easier, less invasive and with less complications.

The recombinant fusion protein staphylokinase-hirudin(rSFH) was purified from the high density-fermented engineered E.coli by means of ion-exchange chromatography (IEC) and gel filtration (GF). The purity of rSFH reached to more than 98% determined by RP-HPLC and SDS-PAGE, and the yield was up to 0.7g per liter of fermentation broth. The analysis of homologous dimmer of rSFH appeared during the purification and calculation of the surface hydrophobic area had been carried out by means of hydrophobic chromatography and MALD-TOF. The influence of sodium chloride and temperature on the behavior of rSFH reversible dimerization was analyzed by high performance sized- exclusive chromatography(HPSEC). It is concluded that the hydrophobic interaction played an important role in the reversible dimerization of rSFH.

Objective To observe and compare the association of serum levels of of complement component 3(C3)and high-sensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)with insulin resistance in non-diabetic subjects. Methods 587non-diabetic Chinese were recruited. Weight, height, blood pressure, waist circumference, fasting plasma glucose,fasting serum insulin, blood lipids, C3 and hs-CRP were measured. HOMA index(HOMA2-IR)was calculated.Insulin resistance was defined as the upper quartile of HOMA2-IR. Results C3 and hs-CRP were significantly higher in subjects with insulin resistance compared with subjects without insulin resistance. After controlling for age, gender,body mass index, and waist circumference, C3 was positively and significantly correlated with HOMA2-IR(r = 0.19,P＜0.01). As C3 increased, subjects were 3.78(OR= 3.78, P＜0.05)times more likely to suffer from insulin resistance, after adjustment for age, gender, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol,triglycerides,high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and waist circumference. However, hs-CRP was not significantly correlated with insulin resistance. Conclusions Serum complement component 3 has a more marked association with insulin resistance than hs-CRP in non-diabetic Chinese.
