Objective To evaluate the clinical value of the regional wall motion in patients with suspected coronary artery disease by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT-3DE) and two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (2D-STI). Methods A total of 143 hospitaized patients with suspected coronary artery disease and normal wall motion de?tected by two-dimensional echocardiography (2DE) were enrolled and devided into group A (coronary stenosis ≥75%) 73 cases and group B (coronary stenosis<75%) that include 70 cases according to coronary angiography results. Left ventricu?lar segmental ejection fraction (sEF) was measured by RT-3DE and peak systolic longitudial strain (SL) was measured by 2D-STI. ROC curves of the two measurements were generated and compared. Differences in sEF and SL between group A and group B were respectively analyzed. Results (1)Both sEF of RT-3DE and SL of 2D-STI in group A were significantly low?er than those in group B (P<0.05);(2)sEF was positively correlated with SL(r=0.689,P<0.05);(3)Compared with SL, sEF had larger area under ROC curve in some segments of left ventricle where both parameters are abnormal for the diagnosis of the coronary stenosis ≥75% (0.922 vs 0.874). Conclusion Regional wall motion of left ventricular can be measured by both RT-3DE and 2D-STI which can be both used to estimate the extend of stenosis of coronary artery. And RT-3DE is su?perior over 2D-STI.

Objective To observe the effects of different posture on hemodynamics and plasma atrial natriuretic polypeptide(ANP) during laparoscopic surgery. Methods Forty patients who scheduled for elective laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia were allocated into two groups according to their posture during laparoscopic surgery,20 cases for each group. In group A, the patients were arranged in a head-down tilt position, in group B, the patients were arranged in a head-up tilt position systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),central venous pressure (CVP) and electro cardio gram (ECC) were monitored continuously. Blood samples were taken from central venous at four time points of prepneumoperitoneum(T1), 10 minutes after that(T2) and 20 mintues(T3) when the patients were arranged at the different operation-needed position with a stable pneumoperitoneum pressure of 14 mm Hg (1 mm Hg = 0.133 kPa),and at 5 minutes (T4) after deflation of pneumoperitoneum when the patients returned to supine position. The plasma ANP was assessed by radioimmunoassay. Results In group A,the CVP at T2 and T3 [(14.45 ±2.72),(14.20 ±2.46) mm Hg] was significantly higher than that at T1 [(6.05 ±1.76) mm Hg] (P<0.01), in group B,the CVP at T2 and T3 [(8.90±1.27),(9.02 ±0.47) mm Hg] was significantly higher than that at T1[(6.30 ±1.34) mm Hg](P< 0.01) ,with a higher level in group A than those in group B at the same time point during pneumoperitoneum(P< 0.01). The ANP level in group A was higher at T2 than that at T1, and there was significantly higher at T3 than that at T1 (P < 0.05). But the ANP level was significantly higher in group A than that in group B at the same time points of T2 and T3 (P < 0.05). Conclusion The posture may have obvious effect on CVP and plasma ANP level during laparoscopic surgery.

Objective Speckle is the inherent problem exists in B-Mode ultrasound image,and effective speckle noise reduction will improve the image quality and contribute greatly to clinical doctors to diagnose,especially in fine ophthalmic examination with high frequency ultrasound.Methods This paper proposed a new speckle reduction method based on the Laplacian pyramid and multiscale analysis.In the Laplacian pyramid,true clinical features were separated from noise,according to the different bandpass ultrasound image characteristics in each layer,and the advanced eight directions speckle reduction anisotropic diffusion (SRAD)was adapted to suppressed the speckle noise,and the identified noise and the extracted features were selectively emphasized by suitable edge,coherence and contrast enhancement filtering from fine to coarse scales.The performance of the proposed method was compared to the traditional SRAD method and coherence-enhancing diffusion method by measuring the equivalent number of looks (ENL) and Time cost.Results The ENL and Time cost value of the proposed method were higher compared to the SRAD and the cedif method,i.e 1.172 3 vs 1.122 3,0.929 3 and 0.864 0 vs 1.396 0,1.468 3.Conclusions In summary,the proposed method can more effectively remove the speckle noise while preserving the edge and details of the images.

Objective:To develop the instrument for the evaluation of the report quality of clinical trials with the modified Delphi method in combination with panel discussions, and assess its validity and reliability. Method: For the development of the instrument, the modified Delphi method in combination with a panel discussion was applied. The consulting panel included pharmacologists, clinical doctors, epidemiologists, statisticians and editors of journal. 30 reports for the therapy of hypertension published in 2000 were selected for the estimation of the instrument of the validity and reliability. The interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to test the reliability. The CONSORT statement was used as a control, and a Kendall correlation was worked out to estimate the validity. Result:A total of 10 specialists took part in the consultation. During the first round of consultation, the expert harmonious coefficient (W) reached to 0. 505 and 19 items were identified. A total of 100 scores were distributed to the 19 items in the second round, and finally the scale was completed. After scoring the 30 reports on hypertension therapy by two readers independently, the interclass correlation coefficients (ICC) of the total score were 0.921,and 0.987 in the introduction part, 0.875 in materials and methods, 0.902 in results, and 0.966 in the discussion and others, P

Objective: To study the expression and activity changes of methionine adenosyltransferase (MAT) in human peripheral T lymphocytes. Methods: The expression of MAT mRNA was detected by RT-PCR and the activity of MAT was measured. Results: After stimulated by IL-2, PHA and anti-CD3 antibody, MAT-Ⅱ gene expression increased by (8.9? 2.1), (7.7?1.9) and (8.0?1.8) times, respectively, and the expression peak was at 8, 4 and 8 h,respectively; MAT activity continuously increased in 48 h. S-adenosylmethioinie (SAM) moderately induced IL-2 and IFN secretion by human T cells. SAM(0.1 mg/ml) downregulated the expression and activity of MAT-Ⅱ and the secretion of IL-2 and IFN induced by PHA or anti-CD3 antibody in human T cells. Conclusion:MAT is involved in the activation of T lymphocytes, and high dose of SAM may also inhibit its activation through PHA and anti-CD3 antibody.

Objective To compare the agreement among Chinese 1992, 2008 and UICC 2010 staging systems of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and evaluate their predictive value of radiotherapeutic prognosis.Methods 347 NPC patients without distant metastasis treated in our hospital from 2000 to 2005 were retrospectively analyzed.Every patient was categorized into T, N, and clinical stage by Chinese 1992, 2008 and UICC 2010 staging systems, respectively.Kappa value was used to evaluate the agreement among three systems.Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the 5-year overall survival (OS), local-free survival (LFS) and distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), the difference between subgroup was tested by Logrank.Results The agreement of clinical stage, T and N stage between Chinese 2008 and UICC 2010 staging system was better than that of them compared to 1992 staging system, Kappa value were 0.700、0.881 and 0.722.The agreement of T stage was better than N and clinical stage among these three staging system.The difference of OS between stageⅢ and stage Ⅳ was significant in Chinese 2008 and UICC 2010 staging system (χ2=4.48,P=0.034;χ2=8.88,P=0.003), and with no different in 1992 staging system (χ2=0.40,P=0.526).There was no significant difference of LFS between T1 and T2,T2 and T3,T3 and T4 in all staging systems (χ2=1.85,0.53,0.50,P=0.174,0.467,0.479;χ2=1.25,2.10,1.99,P=0.264,0.148,0.159;χ2=0.77,0.60,0.87, P=0.381,0.441,0.350).There were no significant differencesin 1992 staging system, while there was significant differences of DMFS between N1 and N2, N2 and N3 in 2008 stage system, N1 and N2 in UICC 2010 stage system.Conclusions The predictive value of Chinese 2008 and UICC 2010 staging system for prognosis were similar, and were better than that of 1992 staging system in NPC.
