Objective To assess the value of the myocardial segment number of color change in the bull's eyes of three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D-STE)in the detection of multi-vessel coronary stenosis at the resting state.Methods A total of 125 consecutive patients were enrolled and divided into the following three groups according to the coronary angiography(CAG):multi-vessel coronary stenosis group (n=48),single-vessel stenosis group(n =34)and control group (n =43).All patients underwent two-dimensional (2D)and three-dimensional echocardiography (3D)and three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (STE).The bull's eyes of left ventricular 17 myocardial segments including longitudinal strain(LS),circumferential strain (CS),area strain(AS)and radial strain(RS)were acquired by 3D-STE.The homogeneous colors were regarded as normal wall motion myocardial segment (LS,CS,AS is a uniform red,RS for uniform blue ),the colors were uneven or shallower,or changes were regarded as abnormal wall motion myocardial segment.The myocardial segment number of color change in the bull's eyes can be calculated.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC ) curves were computed to determine optimal strain cutoff values to predict multi-vessel coronary stenosis.Results The myocardial segments of abnormal wall motion in the bull's eyes (LS,CS,AS,and RS)were significantly increased compared with the control group(P <0.001).In particular,the multi-vessel coronary stenosis group were dramatically increased than the single-vessel coronary stenosis group.Meanwhile,these parameters were higher in patients with multi-vessel coronary stenosis than in those with single-vessel coronary stenosis (P <0.05).ROC analysis demonstrated areas under the curve of 0.84 for 3D GLS,0.89 for 3D GCS,0.95 for 3D GAS,and 0.89 for 3D GRS.An optimal cutoff value of magnitude,sensitivity and specificity were LS,12,89.6%,76.7%;CS,11,89.6%,74.4%;AS,12,91.7%,88.4%;RS,13,81.2%,86.0%,respectively. Conclusions The myocardial segment number of color change in the bull's eyes by 3D-STE is useful to detect multi-vessel coronary stenosis,where in GAS are more valuable indicators with higher sensitivity and specificity.

AIM: To explore the long-term efficacy of Q-factor guided laser epithelial keratomleusis ( LASEK ) for myopia and astigmatism with positive Q-factor.
METHODS: There were 158 eyes which were myopia and astigmatism with positive Q- factor taken in two groups randomly: 86 eyes accepted Q - factor guided LASEK as observation group and 72 eyes accepted routine LASEK as control group. The difference between the two groups about all data was similar. The uncorrected visual acuity ( UCVA ) and the best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) as well as diopter, ocular tension, corneal topography, Keratometry value K, aspherical factor Q, Higher-order aberrations ( HOA ) , corneal thickness by ultrasound and, contrast sensitivity ( CS ) , Haze were examined and compared before and after surgery. All the cased were followed up for 14d, 1, 3, 6, 12mo. And there were no statistical difference among the data before surgery.
RESULTS: After 12mo there were no statistical difference between the two groups about UCVA and BCVA. But the safety index of observation group was 1.10, that of control group was 1. 07. The validity index of observation group was 1. 06, that of control group was 0.99. The HOA of observation group was 0. 45±0. 17μm, and that of control group was 0. 72±0.25μm, there was statistically significant difference (t=-8. 193,P=0. 000). Q factor of observation group was 0. 41±0. 17, that of control group was 0. 77±0. 22, there was significant difference (t=11. 377,P = 0. 028). The contrast sensitivity of 3mo post surgery of patients in the observation group returned to the level of before surgery. But in the control group the contrast sensitivity of the patients did not returned until 6mo.
CONCLUSION:Q-factor guided LASEK for myopia and astigmatism with positive Q-factor is stable, safe and effective. The operation allow for reducing the high order aberrations, maintaining the most asphericity of cornea, saving more in corneal tissue, which cause faster recovery of contrast sensitivity, less haze and better visual quality.

Objective To study the effects of tetrandrine on apoptosis of HeLa cervical cancer cells qualitatively and quantitatively. Methods We measured tetrandrine-induced inhibition of HeLa cell proliferation at different concentrations and time points by MTT assay. The rate of Hela cell apoptosis induced by tetrandrine was detected by flow cytometer and confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM). Results Tetrandrine inhibited the proliferation of HeLa cells in dosage- and time-dependent manners. Flow cytometry showed that the apoptosis rate was (51.8±0.97)% at the concentration of 15μmol/L, which was significantly higher than that in the control group (24.3±1.23)% (P<0.05). The cells treated with tetrandrine showed typical apoptotic morphology under CLSM. Conclusion Tetrandrine can inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of HeLa cervical cancer cells.

Objective To observe the efficacy and prognosis of recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide ( rhBNP) and conventional treatment in acute myocardial infarction patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention therapy complicated by acute of left heart failure. Methods Retrospective analysis of 229 cases of hospitalized patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention therapy in 24 hours after admission, complicating with acute left ventricular failure in Shenyang Military General Hospital from June 2012 to January 2014 were enrolled and devided into: the conventional heart failure therapy group (the control group, n=122) and the rhBNP plus conventional treatment group ( the treatment group, n =107 ) , according to the patient's economic conditions and wishes. Observed improvement in heart failure symptoms before and after treatment during hospitalization and follow-up and also the 30 days and 12 months mortality. Results After 72 hrs of treatment of heart failure, both groups had decrease in heart rates, systolic blood pressure and NT-proBNP levels as compared to pre-treatment levels ( all P ﹤ 0. 05 ) . The NT-proBNP levels and heart rate of the treatment group decreased more significantly compared to the control group (both P﹤0. 05). Compared with the control group, rhBNP which to be used 72 hrs, can improve the cardiac function of AMI patients with the ratio of KillipⅡ-Ⅲ(72. 9%vs. 54. 9%, P=0. 005). There was no significant differences between two groups in in-hospital mortality and early follow-up period ( 30 days ) ( P ﹥0. 05 ) . After 12 months of follow-up, the mortality of the treatment group was lower than the control group ( 6. 5% vs. 13. 9%, P = 0. 068 ) . Through logistic regression analysis, the value of NT-proBNP and whether patients were treated with rhBNP on the basis of the routine drug were independent influencing factors for mortality of 12 months. Conclusions Additional to standard conventional therapy for acute left heart failure in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing PCI, rhBNP can lower the 12 months mortality and improve prognosis.

Objective To observe the effects of methionine enkephalin (M-Enk) on migration of macrophages from mice with impaired liver and its immunomodulatory mechanisms. MethodsLiver of mice was impaired by feeding CCl4 and macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MMIF) was produced by Con A-stimulated spleen lympho- cytes. Inhibition of macrophage migration was measured in reaction system by adding M-Enk. Results Migration of macrophages in both liver-impaired and control group were suppressed by MMIF, but the suppression might be re- versed by adding 1 μmol/L M-Enk (P<0. 05). M-Enk could significantly inhibit in vitro both of the combination of MMIF with macrophages and production of MMIF from lymphocytes (P<0. 01). Macrophages from liver-imparied group showed a higher sensitivity compared to the control group (P<0. 05). ConclusionThe study suggests that opi- oid peptieds play an important role in the modulation of the immune response under stress as liver impairment.

Objective To establish a optimal method and threshold of 3-deoxy-3-fluorothymidine (FLT) PET-CT in delineating the biological target length of gross tumor in esophageal carcinoma, and to compare FLT PET-CT with other imaging modalities including esophagoseopy, esophagography, CT and flu-orodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET-CT. Methods Twenty-four patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma treated with radical surgery were enrolled. Before surgery, all the patients underwent FLT PET-CT, esepha-goscopy and esophagography. Twenty-two patients also received FDG PET-CT scan. Gross tumor volumes (GTV) were delineated using seven different threshold of FLT PET-CT: visual interpretation, standardized uptake value (SUV) 1.3, SUV 1.4, SUV 1.5, 20% of maximum standard uptake value (SUV_(max)), 25% SUV_(max), and 30% SUV_(max). Three different thresholds of FDG PET-CT were used, including visual interpre-tation, SUV 2.5, and 40% SUV_(max). The length of tumors on FLT PET-CT scan were measured and recorded as L_(FLTvis), L_(FLT1.3), L_(FLT1.4), L_(FLT1.5), L_(FLT20%), L_(FLT25%), and L_(FLT30%), respectively. The length of tumors on FDG PET-CT scan were recorded as L_(FDGvis), L_(FDG2.5), and L_(FDG40%), respectively. The length of tumors on CT, esophagography and esophagoscopy were recorded as L_(CT), L_(X-ray) and L_(Scopy). All of these results were com-pared with the length of gross tumor in the reseeted specimen measured by pathological examination (L_(Path)), Results The L_(Path) was (4.90±2.14) cm. The Length of tumors delineated by different methods, being from short to long, were L_(FDG40%), L_(Scopy), L_(X-ray),L_(FLT1.5),L_(CT),L_(FLT30%),L_(FLTvis),L_(FLT1.4),L_(FLT25%), L_(FDG2.5),L_(FDGvis),L_(FLT1.3),L_(FLT20%). The mean values were (3.85±1.52), (4.46±2.23), (4.63± 2.37), (4.64±2.38),(4.69± 1.85),(4.75±2.19) ,(4.85±2.33),(4.87±2.35),(5.05±2.20), (5.08± 2.19) ,(5.10±2.22), (5.21±2.40) and (5.53±2.17) cm,respectively. The correlation coefficients were 0.91,0.93,0.88, 0.95, 0.90, 0.81,0.96, 0.96, 0.80, 0.99, 0.99, 0.95 and 0. 79 , respective-ly. All the P values were 0. 000. L_(FLT1.4) of FLT PET-CT and L_(FDG2.5) of FDG PET-CT were found more ap-proximate to L_(Path). There was no significant difference between L_(FLT1.4) and L_(FDG2.5) (1= 1.23, P = 0.232), and the correlation coefficient was 0.96 (P = 0. 000). Conclusions Thresholds of SUV 1.4 on FLT PET-CT and SUV 2.5 on FDG PET-CT could optimally estimate the tumor length measured by pathological examina-tion, and could be objective and simple methods for semiquantitative analysis.
