Objective To investigate the relationship of plasma level of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in patients with essential hypertension. Methods The plasma level of BNP was measured with electrochemiluminescence immunoassay method in 32 hyper- tensive patients without left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) (NLVH group), 30 patients with essen- tial hypertension with LVH (LVH group), and 30 healthy adults (control group). Doppler echocar- diography was employed to determine left ventrieular mass index (LVMI) and observe the correlation of plasma BNP level with LVMI. Results The plasma BNP level was significantly elevated in LVH group than that of NLVH group and control group (P<0.01). The plasma BNP level was significant- ly higher in NLVH group than that of control group (P<0.01). BNP level was positively correlated with LVMI in hypertensive patients with LVH (r= 0.64, P<0. 01). Conclusion BNP level may reflex the degree of left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with essential hypertension.

The authors described two cases with primitive trigeminal artery. Case 1 was a 32-year-old woman who suffered dizziness and a serious pulsatile intracranial bruit on the left ear, and sometimes associated with pulsatile intracranial bearing-pain on the left temporal side six months before she was admitted to the hospital. She also suffered from obvious diplopia on left lateral gaze for the last 5 months. She had suffered no recent trauma. Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) demonstrated a suspected intracranial aneurysm located in left cavernous sinus. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was performed and a primitive trigeminal artery-cavernous sinus fistula in left side was found. Intraluminal occlusion of the fistula was successfully performed immediately after angiography using 6 Guglielmi detachable coils (GDC), and the patient was cured finally. Case 2 was a 28-year-old woman who suffered a serious intermittent cephalodynia associated with soreness on the left body two years before she was admitted to the hospital. She had suffered no recent trauma. Magnetic resonance angiography(MRA) demonstrated a suspected intracavernous aneurysm of the right internal carotid artery, Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) was performed. Right internal carotid angiography showed a primitive trigeminal artery (PTA) run between the cavernous segment of the internal carotid artery and the distal portion of the basilar artery. On initiation of PTA of R-ICA a small wide-necked saccular aneurysm was incidentally visualized. The aneurysm was successfully embolized after angiography using 2 Stent (Neuroform, 4.5mmm × 20mmm)-assisted detachable coils (Matrix), the ICA and PTA were preserved, and the patient was cured finally.

Objective To explore the role of acute infection of Chlamydia pneumoniae (Cpn) in respiratory diseases. Methods Microimmunofluorescence test was used to detect IgG antibodies for Cpn in serum obtained from 93 inpatients and PCR was used to test Cpn in detection of Cpn DNA in throat specimens from 55 of the 99 patients. Results Acute Cpn infection was diagnosed in 35.5% of the respiratory diseases. Antibodies for Cpn (titer of ≥512) were present in 47.6% of the pneumonia group, which may suggest that during 1998 to 1999, Cpn caused an epidemic in Beijing. They were also present in 50% of asthma group, 50.0% of pulmonary heart disease group and 26.3% of lung cancer group. Only five patients (9.1%) were positive by PCR. There exists discrepancy between serological and PCR results. Conclusion Detection of IgG antibodies for Cpn conduces to diagnosis of acute Cpn infection and give advice for appropriate therapy.

Objective To analyze the mammographic findings of triple-negative breast cancer [TNBC,which is estrogen receptor (ER) negative,progesterone receptor (PR) negative,and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 ( HER2 ) negative ] and triple-positive breast cancer ( TPBC,which is ER positive,PR positive,and HER2 positive ),and to evaluate the relationship of immunohistochemologic receptor status and mammographic findings.MethodsThe immunohistochemistry results of 631 cases with breast cancers were reviewed,including 117 cases of TNBC and 44 cases of TPBC.All of the patients took mammography at initial diagnosis.We retrospectively evaluated the visibility,morphology,distribution and size of the lesion (masses and calcifications) and breast density on mammography of TNBC,and compared them with those of TPBC.The age onset and tumor sizes of TNBC and TPBC were compared by using Chi-square test and t test.ResultsThe visibility rate of TNBC and TPBC on mammography were 88.0%(103/117) and 90.9% (40/44),and the difference between them was insignificant ( x2 =0.055,P >0.05).TNBC was more frequently associated with merely a mass (56/103) than TPBC (12/40) (x2 =6.860,P<0.01 ),and the mean diameter of the mass of TNBC [ ( 2.6 ± 1.4 ) cm ] was larger than that of TPBC [(2.0 ± 0.6) cm](t =2.087,P < 0.05). TNBC were less frequently associated with microcalcifications (37/103) than TPBC ( 24/40 ) ( x2 =7.423,P < 0.01 ).Mammographic density and lesion visibility were similar between the two different immunophenotypes of breast cancers.The mean age of TNBC (52±9) was more than that of TPBC (48 ±8) (t =2.759,P <0.01).Infiltrating ductal carcinoma was the main pathologic type of both groups.Basal-like breast cancer accounted for 49% (57/117 ) of TNBC while none happened in TPBC.ConclusionsTNBC shows merely a mass with indistinct margins,lager size and is less associated with microcalcifications.These mammographic features might be useful in diagnosing triple negative breast cancer.

Objective To observe hemodynamic changes in patients with primary hypertension with wave intensity (WI). Methods Carotid arteries of 36 patients with primary hypertension and 30 age-matched normal controls were examined with imaging technique of WI. The following parameters were measured: the first wave peak in early ejection (W1), the second wave peak in late ejection (W2), the negative area during the mid-ejection (NA), the interval between the R wave of the ECG and the first peak of W1 (R-1st), the interval between the first peak and the second peak (1~(st)-2~(nd)), the ratio of R-1st and a cardiac cycle time R-1_(HR)~(st)) and the ratio of 1~(st)-2~(nd) , as well as one cardiac cycle time (1~(st)-2(_(HR)~(nd)). Results ①W1 in primary hypertension group increased compared with those of normal controls (P<0.01), while no significant difference of W2, NA, R-1st, 1~(st)-2~(nd), R-1_(HR)~(st), 1~(st)-2_(nd)~(HR) was detected (P>0.05). ②Both W1 and W2 correlated positively with pulse pressure (PP) and systolic blood pressure (SBP) (r=0.66, 0.55, P<0.01;r=0.62, 0.44, P<0.01). W1, W2 and age, DBP were not related significantly (P>0.05). Conclusion The hemodynamic parameters of WI technology provide a new way to evaluate the dynamics of the heart and vascular system and their interaction.

In order to reveal feasibility of different concentrations of Ca2+ and SA on Platycodon grandiflorum under high temperature stress, the effects of Ca2+ on physiological index and related photosynthetic parameters were studied. Pot cultured P. grandiflorum leaves under the same outdoor conditions were sprayed with CaCl2 and SA separately, and then placed in the high incubator [35 degrees C/25 degrees C (day/night), light intensity 3 600 lx], and sprayed with distilled water at 25 degrees C and under high temperature stress were set as the control. The related photosynthesis, relative conductivity, contents of proline, malondialdehyde, soluble protein, activities of SOD and CAT, ASA and GSH content were measured. The results show that the 6 mmol x L(-1) CaCl2 and 1.5 mmol x L(-1) SA enhanced the activities of SOD and CAT, the contents of proline and soluble protein, and effectively reduced the damage of heat stress on cell membrance. At the same time, the exogenous Ca2+ and SA increased the contents of chlorophyll and carotenoid, the efficiency of leaf photosynthesis and ASA and GSH content, and thus effectively resisted the oxidative stress caused by high temperatures, but with the increasing concentration of spraying, P. grandiflorum decreased the ability to resist high temperature stress. In conclusion, the foliage spraying CaCl2 and SA could reduce the damage of high temperature stress on P. grandiflorum leaves.
