Objective To evaluate the clinical safety and efficacy of Cheatham-Platinum(CP)covered stent in treatment of aortic coarctation.Methods The therapeutic efficacy was retrospectively analyzed in 15 patients with aortic coarctation who were treated by BIB balloon dilation and CP covered stent implantation.Results All patients were well recovered,the stent did not appear displaced,folded,aorta dissection and rupture.The pressure difference was 5-10 mm Hg(1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa)between proximal part and distal end after operation.Following up(20±12)months,the therapy efficacy of all the patients was stable and there was no fracture,removal,aortic stenosis or dysarteriotony.Heart ultrasounds demonstrated good close of the cases with patent ductus arteriosus.Conclusion CP covered stent is a safe and available clinical therapy,featured by minimum aorta injuries.

There were some limitations existed in current teaching mode of diagnostics,including simple evaluation methods,mechanical internship for body sign,tedious internship for laboratory diagnosis and unsustainable interest-stimulating.Interest teaching was proposed in the teaching reform and some concert measures were implemented including interesting inquiry,interesting skill examination,interesting teaching of laboratory diagnostics,simulated case discussion,interesting training of centesis as well as interesting clinical involvement and interesting medical community activities.The interesting teaching contributed to the improvement of students'comprehensive analysis ability,practical ability,adaptability,humanistic quality,English communication ability and doctor-patient communication,which is of grate importance.

After a description of the background of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment in China, the total frame-work of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system in the Internet+era was proposed by analyzing its needs in the Internet+ era, and the main functions of its data center, information system, clinical professional collaboration and public health service were elaborated in order to promote medical health actions and construction of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment system in China.

Objective:To investigate the supply status of dementia care services in pension agency in Guang zhou,thus to put forward suggestions for improving the service quality of the long-term care for dementia.Methods:Using questionnaire research and individual interview,an interview survey was conducted among managers,dementia and nursing assistant in ten pension agencies in Guangzhou.The data was analyzed by SPSS16.0 statistical method.Results:The dementia had been increasingly paid attention by the pension agencies,but there were still considerable defects in the aspect of the zone set up and service supply;the professional quality of nursing personnel in pension agencies had steadily increased,but shorthanded situation was more obvious.Conclusions:It suggests that we should provide specialized nursing level and the classification standard of care requirements for dementia elders;strengthen the training of mental health worker to enhance the level of medical care and supply ability of nursing assistant;allocate the mental health resources rationally;explore the “combination of medical treatment and endowment” service model which meets the need of dementia elders.

Objective To study the expression of aquaporins-4 (AQP4) in the brain tissue of rats with pancreatic encephalopathy (PE) induced by phospholipase A2 and to explore the role of aquaporins-4 in PE.Methods Twenty five healthy Wistar rats were randomized into 3 groups:blank group ( n =5),PE group (n =10 ) and control group (n =10 ).The experimental model was established in rats by injecting phospholipase A2 into carotid artery (0.1 ml/100 g body weight).Same amount of normal saline was used in the control group and no treatment was used in the blank group.One day later,the rats were sacrificed,then the measurement of brain tissue wet/dry (W/D) weight ratio was performed,and brain tissue was routinely pathologically examined,immunohistochemistry and Western blotting were performed in each group to detect the expression of aquaporins-4.Results There was no obvious brain tissue pathological change in the control group and blank group.Neurons in the brain tissue of PE rats presented with significant edema and ballooning degeneration,infiltration of inflammatory cells,leukocyte aggregation around the microvessels.The water contents in the brain tissue in the blank group and control group,PE group were (61.44 ±0.36)％,(63.20±0.32)％ and (78.33 ±0.24)％,and it was significantly higher in PE group than that in the control and blank group (P＜0.05).The expressions of aquaporins-4 in the brain tissue were 0.41 ±0.27,0.49 ±0.13,0.98 ±0.21,respectively,and it was significantly increased in PE group than that in the control and blank group (P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions Aquaporins-4 may play important roles in the pathogenesis of pancreatic encephalopathy.

The classification of social capital involved in health information construction was proposed according to the connotation of social capital and health information construction, and the comprehensiveness, broadness, coop-erative variety, innovative technical application and good development situation of social capital involved in health information construction were dealt with.

To establish the vascular endothelial cell (VEC) injury model of blood stasis syndrome (BSS) based on integration of disease identification and syndrome differentiation is one of the aspects of the research on BSS model. This paper discussed the necessity and feasibility of the establishment of that model, and suggested that the model is of important academic value, far-reaching scientific research value and active clinic value.

Hemolysins of Leptospira interragans have been shown to be the virulence factor in the pathogenesis of leptospirosis and 10 potential hemolysin genes were charecterized by genomic annotation of L.interrogans serovar.Lai strain 56601. In the present study, the LA0202 gene supposed to encode one of the new potential hemolysin was cloned and the protein encoded was purified. The purified protein was shown to have highly hemolytic activity as demonstrated on the sheep blood agar plate. It was also confirmed that the LA0202 protein-mediated hemolysis on sheep erythrocytes was osmotically protected by PEG6000. Meanwhile, this protein could induce pore formation on sheep erythrocytes and cause damages on the membrane of human L-02 liver cells. In addition, it could induce apoptosis of human L-02 liver cells after treatment of cells with this protein for 24 hours. It is evident that LA0202 protein acting as a pore-formong hemolysin can induce cytotoxic damage on mammalian cells.

Objective To create a three-dimensional speckle tracking imaging (3DSTI) multiparameter analysis model to improve the diagnostic efficiency of obstructive coronary artery stenosis.Methods One hundred and four patients with chest pain were divided into two groups:coronary heart disease(CHD) group (61 patients) and control group (43 patients) according to the result of selective coronary angiography (SCA).The two groups' clinical data and echocardiographic parameters were aquired,including mitral flow E and A velocities,E peak deceleration time,isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT),mitral annulus velocity e' and a' peak in diastolic and s' peak in systolic by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI),and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).The global longitudinal peak strain (2D-GLPS) by two dimensional speckle tracking,global longitudinal peak strain (3D-GLPS),circumferential peak strain(3D-GCPS),radial peak strain (3D-GRPS) and area peak strain (3D-GAPS) were acquired.Results For conventional parameters,there were no significant difference between the two groups.Compared with control group,TDI e' peak,3D-GRPS decreased,significantly E/e',2D-GLPS,3D-GLPS,3D-GAPS,3D-GCPS increased significantly (P ＜0.01).For single parameter,area under the ROC curve (AUC) were successively 3D-GAPS(0.766) ＞ 3D-GLPS(0.746) ＞ 2D-GLPS(0.746) ＞3D-GRPS(0.727) ＞ s' (0.703) ＞E/e' (0.688)＞3D-GCPS(0.686).AUC for single and multi technology were successively p-Union(0.856)＞p-3DSTI(0.772) ＞ p-TDI (0.757) ＞ p-2DSTI (0.746).Conclusions 3DSTI together with multi-parameter analysis model can significantly improve the diagnostic efficiency of obstructive coronary artery stenosis.Area strain is an independent predictor of obstructive coronary artery stenosis.
