OBJECTIVE:
To obtain the genetic polymorphism data of two STR loci D2S1399 and D5S2500 in Eastern Chinese Han population.
METHODS:
Blood samples or buccal swabs of unrelated Han individuals living in eastern China were analyzed using PCR-nature polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis-sliver staining method.
RESULTS:
11 alleles of D2S1399 and 9 alleles of D5S2500 were observed in the samples respectively, the observed heterozygosity (Ho) values, the discrimination power (DP) values and the power of exclusion (PE) values of D2S1399 and D5S2500 is 0.745 and 0.807, 0.958 and 0.917, 0.554 and 0.643, respectively.
CONCLUSION
The result showed that D2S1399 and D5S2500 were highly informative loci and suitable for forensic application.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the improvement effects of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) fosinopril, perindopril and benazepril on ventricular remodeling in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and to evaluate its safety. METHODS: A total of 96 AMI patients selected from our hospital during Jan. 2014-Oct. 2016 were divided into group A, B, C according to random number table, with 32 cases in each group. All patients received symptomatic treatment, underwent percutaneous coronary intervention, and then given ACEI after blood vessels recanalization and keeping blood pressure stable. Group A was given Fosinopril sodium tablets 10 mg, qd; group B was given Perindopril tert-butylamine tablets 4 mg, qd; group C was given Benazepril hydrochloride tablets 10 mg, qd. All groups were treated for consecutive 6 months. Cardiac structure and function indexes (LVESD, LVEDD, IVSD, LVPWD, LVEF, CO), hemodynamic indexes (SBP, DBP, HR) and related lab indexes (FPG, TG, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, AST, ALT, Scr, BUN) of 3 groups were observed before and after treatment. The occurrence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS: Before treatment, there was no statistical significance in cardiac structure and function indexes, hemodynamic indexes or related lab indexes among 3 groups (P>0. 05). After treatment, the levels of LVESD, LVEDD, LVPWD, CO, HR, FPG, TG, TC and LDL-C in 3 groups were decreased significantly, while the levels of LVEF and SBP were increased significantly, with statistical significance (尸<0. 05). There was no statistical significance in above indexes among 3 groups after treatment (P>0. 05). After treatment, the level of Scr in group B was significantly increased and higher than group A and C, with statistical significance (P<0. 05). There was no statistical significance in the levels of IVSD, DBP, HDL-C, AST, ALT or BUN among 3 groups before and after treatment as well as the level of Scr between group A and C (P> 0. 05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR among 3 groups(P>0. 05). CONCLUSIONS: Fosinopril, perindopril and benazepril can significantly improve ventricular remodeling in AMI patients, narrowing the heart cavity, increasing systolic pressure, lowering heart rate, reducing the oxygen consumption of the ventricle, with similar effects. Perindopril may increase the level of Scr, so fosinopril and benazepril are safe and suitable for AMI patients with renal function disorder.

Objective:To analyze the effect of systematic exercise with a self-designed foot-ankle exerciser on postoperative ankle function in patients with tibial pilon fracture.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted of the 84 patients with tibial pilon fracture who had been treated by open reduction and internal fixation at Nanhua Hospital Affiliated to Nanhua University from May 2018 to January 2020. According to the difference in rehabilitation, they were divided into a control group ( n=42) which were subjected to staged functional rehabilitation after operation and an observation group ( n=42) which was subjected to systematic exercise with a self-designed foot-ankle exerciser. In the control group there was 26 males and 16 females with an age of (36.6±4.8) years (from 20 to 55 years); in the observational group there were 27 males and 15 females with an age of (36.4±4.5) years (from 21 to 57 years). The 2 groups were compared in terms of postoperative recovery, ankle functional recovery, postoperative quality of life, and rate of complications. Results:The 2 groups were comparable due to the insignificant differences in their preoperative general data ( P>0.05). The time for first ambulation [(3.7±0.3) weeks], time for fracture union [(9.1±0.8) weeks], and time for full-weight bearing [(6.5±0.9) weeks] in the observational group were all significantly shorter than those in the control group [(4.1±0.5) weeks, (10.9±1.2) weeks and (7.2±1.1) weeks] ( P<0.05). The good to excellent rate of ankle functional recovery was 92.9% (39/42) for the observational group, significantly higher than that for the control group (73.8%, 31/42) ( P<0.05). The scores for postoperative quality of life in the observational group were significantly higher than those in the control group in dimensions of material, psychology, society and body ( P<0.05). The rate of total postoperative complications in the observational group was 2.4% (1/42), significantly lower than that in the control group (10.9%, 8/42) ( P<0.05). Conclusions:For patients with tibial pilon fracture undergoing the same surgical procedures, systematic exercise with our self-designed foot-ankle exerciser can promote functional recovery of the ankle joint, improve postoperative quality of life, and reduce incidence of postoperative complications.
