ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the influence of metformin on metabolic syndrome in patients with coronary artery disease.Methods 52 patients with coronary artery disease and metabolic syndrome were randomly assigned into 2 groups.the control group with 20 cases and the study group with 32 cases.All the patients were treated with standard coronary artery disease therapy and meanwhile the study group was administered with metformin in addition to the basic therapy above.The follow-up time is one year.FPG,2h postprandial glucose,FINS,TG,TC,HDL-C,insulin resistance index and other standards were compared before and after the therapy,and between the 2 groups when the observation was finished.The rate of cardiovascular events was also compared between the 2 groups.Results Compared with the control group,the study group had lower levels of FPG,2h postprandial glucose,FINS,TG and insulin resistance index when the therapy was completed(P<0.05),and the rate of cardiovascular events was also lower(P<0.05).Conclusion Metformin could lower the levels of glucose,FINS,BMI,TG and insulin resistance index in patients with coronary artery disease and metabolic syndrome.Thus,it could reduce and undermine cardlovascular risk factors,protect the cardiovascular system,reduce the rate of cardiovascular events,which fully benefits the patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of trimetazidine on patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy heart failure and the changes of plasma level of N-terminal pro-B type natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP).Methods 62 patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy heart failure were randomly assigned to regular treatment group(3 1)and trimetazidine treatment group(31).All of them were given either regular medicine treatment or trimetazidine for 4 weeks.Concentration of NT-proBNP and echocardiography were detected before and after treatment and the correlation between NT-pmBNP and ultra-sound values was studied.Results There was no statistic difference in the NT-proBNP level between two groups before treatment,but after 4-week treatment the NT-proBNP level in both groups were deCreased(P＜0.05),the decline in the trimetazidine group was more significant.The NT-proBNP level was significantly correlated to LVEF and LVEDD(γ=-0.472、0.45 1;P＜0.05).Conclusions Trimetazidine has a positive effect on patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy heart failure,and decreases the plasma NT-proBNP level.NT-proBNP Can be used as a follow-up index.
ABSTRACT
Influenced by the intensity, volume of exercise, the basic metabolic features of skeletal muscle are changed to such structural and functional adaptations as there are increases in the amount of contractile components, muscle glycogen and myoglobin, in the volume and quantity of mitochondria and in the density of capillary in skeletal muscle, which result in enhanced aerobic metabolism, contraction efficiency and prolonged time defore failure. It is also pointed out that the structural changes and decrease of function of sarcoplasmic reticula during acute exercise are important reasons for skeletal muscle fatigue , whereas, high- intensity training can improve sarcoplasmic reticulum function and its Ca2＋ -intake rate, so that to improve the physiological efficacy of excitation- contraltion coupling. So it is put forward that anti- resistance training, as a means of exercise therapy, can efficiently increase muscle strength and prevent muscle atrophy.

ABSTRACT
Bioeleotrical activities of human cerebral cortex which control and regalate movements get to increase during voluntary movements, the metabolic level of the cells of motor areas change at the same time,and consequently regiond cerebrd blood flow (rCBF)changes. Different changes of rCBF indicate the range of motor areas with which the relavant movemats are involved.And studies of this take great significance in finding out the basic active regalarity and features of human brain. In this artide motheds of the determination of rCBF an introduced briefly, and changes and distribution of rCBF of rCBF of each cortical moter area during different types of volantary movements are discribed. Keywords：regional cerebral blood flow; voluntary movements; cerebral corrical motor areas
