Effect of Atorvastatin on Inflammation Markers and Intima-media Thickness of the Common Carotid Artery in Patient with Hyperlipidemic and Atherosclerosis / 医学研究杂志

Objective To investigate the effects of atorvastutin on the levels of plasm imflammation markers (hs - CRP, MMP - 3, TNF - α) and intima - media thickness(ITM) of the common carotid artery in patient with hyperlipidemic and atherosclerosis. Methods Fifty patient with hyperlipidemic and atherosclerosis were treated with atorvastatin (10mg qd) for 12 weeks. The levels of TC, TG, LDL -C, HDL -C, hs -CRP, TNF -α and MMP -3 were detected with radioimmmuneassay and eolorimetric methods. Color Doppler echo-cardiography was used to measure intima -media thickness(ITM) of the common carotid artery after 6 weeks and 12 weeks. Results TC, TG, LDL -C, hs -CRP, TNF -α and MMP -3 were decreased significantly(P < 0.01)after 12 weeks. IMT was decreased signifi-cantly(P < 0.05) and HDL - C was increased significantly (P < 0.05) after 12 weeks. Conclusion Atorvastatin could be effective in re-ducing blood - fat and anti - inflammatory action , regulating blood vessel endothelium (BVE) function and reversing structural chan-ges in IMT of the common carotid artery.

Clinical Effect of Metoprolol Tartrate Tablets and Sodium Fructose Diphosphate Injection in Acute Myocardial Infarction Patients with Thrombolytic Therapy / 医学研究杂志

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of Metoprolol Tartrate Tablets and Sodium Fructose Diphosphate(FDP) :injection in the early treatment of 48 cases of acute myocardial infarction(AMI) patients with thrombolytic therapy.Methods 84 cases of acute myocardial infarction who were in accordance with the indications for thrombolytic therapy in patients were randomly divided into a treatment group(group A,48 cases,treated with Metoprolol Tartrate Tablets and Sodium Fructose Diphosphate Injection) and a control group(group B,36 cases,treated with the conventional therapy).The occurrence of reperfusion arrhythmias,early sighs and symptms,and retoration of myocardial injury were observed in patients after thrombolytic therapy in order to understand clinical effect on the patients with that treatment.Results In treatment group there were decreased incidence of heart symptoms (chest pain,cardiopalmus) and RA(group A,36.1%;group B,71.4%),improved recovery of cardiac muscde enzymogram as compared to control,which was significantly different with control and between treatment groups (P

Clinical Effect Observation of Azithromycin and Ambroxol Hydrochloride in the Treatment of 56 Cases of Children with Acute Lower Respiratory Tract Infection Contraindicating to Penicillin and Cephalosporins / 医学研究杂志

Objective To observate the effects and reliability of azithromycin and ambroxol hydrochloride and glucose Injection in treatment of children with acute lower respiratory tract infection contraindicating to penicillin and cephalosporins. Methods 56 cases of children with acute lower respiratory tract infection for whom penicillin and cephalosporins were treated with azithromycin and ambroxol hydrochloride and glucose injection(group A) and other 100 cases without penicillin and cephalosporins contraindication were randomly divided into group B(treatment with cephalosporin) and group C (treatment with azithromycin). The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of 3 groups after treatment in children were compared. Results In group A and group B, fever, cough, wheezing and other clinical symptoms, positive signs of the disappearance time of the lung were significantly shorter than those in the group C. The clinical efficacy of the two groups had significant difference as compared with group C (P0.05). Conclusion It is a good treatment with azithromycin and ambroxol hydrochloride and glucose injection to cure children cases with acute lower respiratory tract infection contraindicating to penicillin and cephalosporins, and it' s curative effect is equivalency with cephalosporin. It is worth to use this treatment in clinical practice.

Analysis of Clinical Feature and Treatment of 42 Children's Patients with Severe Viral Myocarditis / 医学研究杂志

Objective To summarize the clinical features,efficacy and prognosis of 42 children patients with severe viral myocarditis(VM).Methods To retrospecitivly analyze the clinical data about 42 children patients with severe VM.Results There were the lack of typical clinical features and ancillary inspection targets on diagnosis,and no effects on clinical treatment,so that it was being concealed in the basis of disease symptoms and delayed treatment.Amidst this group patients(42 cases)of children with severe viral myocarditis,there was 76.2% patients with the heart symptoms and 47.6% patients with serious cardiac complications(such as acute heart failure,cardiogenic shock,fatal arrhythmia).Therapeutic result:total effective rate 78.6%,morality 11.9%,14.3% to chronic.Conclusion To diagnose Viral myocarditis in children it hould be combined with the history of palpitations,chest tightness,and other clinical symptoms and objective indicators of myocardial damage.Because of no specific means of treatment,we should be focus on comprehensive treatment and timely care and rescue critically ill patients.The majority of children patients with severe VM are favorable prognosis and a very small number to chronic.
