RESUMO
Clopidogrel possesses different therapeutic effects due to individual patient differences .Clopidogrel resist‐ance occurs in some patients .Many researches have indicated that CYP2C19 gene polymorphism possesses close cor‐relation with variability of platelets after receiving clopidogrel .The present article made a review on related litera‐ture ,to explore the possibility that CYP2C19 gene detection guides clopidogrel antiplatelet therapy .
RESUMO
The effects of CYP1A enzyme on the pharmacokinetics of p-acetaminophen were studied in Bactrian camel. Twelve Bactrian camels were divided into 2 groups, then given a single dose of p-acetaminophen only or with the enzyme inhibitor lomefloxacin. Blood samples were collected after different intervals, and p-acetaminophen concentration was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. Pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed by Phoenix WinNonLin v.7.0. The results show that lomefloxacin can significantly inhibit Bactrian camel CYP1A enzyme, as evidenced by the prolonged elimination half-life, increased maximum plasma concentration and area under the curve values and the shortened time to peak concentration for p-acetaminophenol in the substrate with inhibitor group. The results lay a foundation for revealing the particular characteristics of the CYP1A enzyme in Bactrian camels.

Objective To explore CT angiography(CTA) method for the influence of the cerebral angiography ,looking for dif-ferent situations using which kind of scan mode can achieve the best results .Methods 350 CTA patients were selected and tested by 4 kinds of scanning methods which were subtraction scan (236) ,experience value scan (13) ,smart tracking scan (68) ,smart tracking and subtraction combined(33) .To compare and analyze that four kinds of scanning methods ,to explore which kind of method under what circumstances can get the best examination results .Results Smart tracking and subtraction combined with scan method and subtraction scan method for excellent rate of image quality were 93 .93% and 93 .64% respectively ,there were no sig-nificant statistical differences between them .Experience value method and smart tracking method for excellent rate of image quality were only 76 .92% and 66 .18% ,there was significant difference in statistics .Conclusion Subtraction scan can be used as a conventional scan method .In low dose test bolus of time-density curve detection failure cases ,smart tracking and subtraction combined with scan method was used to get the image quality with subtraction scan method ,it is an effective complement of subtraction scan method ,is worth generalization .
RESUMO
This study examined the incidence, neuropsychological characteristics and risk factors of cognitive impairment 3 months after stroke in China. Five regions that differed in geography and economy in China were selected. Patients from the hospitals located in the five regions were prescreened at admission, and the demographic data, vascular risk factors and clinical characteristics of stroke were obtained. A battery of cognitive-specific domain tests was performed in the patients who failed to pass cognitive screening 3 months post stroke. Patients were diagnosed as having post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) or no cognitive impairment (NCI) based on the results of the neuropsychological tests. Univariate analysis was performed for suspect risk factors, and significant variables were entered in multivariable logistic regression analysis. Our results showed that a total of 633 patients were recruited 3 months after stroke; complete cognitive tests were performed in 577 of the stroke patients. The incidence of PSCI in these Chinese patients was 30.7%. There were 129 (22.4%) patients with visuospatial impairment, 67 (11.6%) with executive impairment, 60 (10.4%) with memory impairment and 18 (3.1%) with attention impairment. The risk factors associated with PSCI were older age (odds ratio [OR] 1.76, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.20-2.58), low education level (OR 2.45, 95% CI 1.65-3.64), depressive symptom (OR 1.69, 95% CI 1.09-2.61), obesity (OR 2.57, 95% CI 1.41-4.71), stroke severity 3 months post stroke (OR 1.62, 95%CI 1.10-2.37) and cortex lesion (OR 1.55, 95% CI 1.04-2.31). It was concluded that PSCI occurs commonly 3 months after first-ever stroke in Chinese patients. Visuospatial ability may be the most frequently impaired cognitive domain for the patients with stroke. The critical risk factors of PSCI are older age, low education level, depressive symptom, obesity, stroke severity 3 months post stroke and cortex lesion.

Objective:To study the value of clinical application of 16-slice spiral CT in the diagnosis of acute chest pain.Methods:53 cases who presented with acute chest pain were included in the study.All of the patients underwent CTA examination to evaluate the coronary arteries,pulmonary arteries,thoracic and abdomen aorta.Coronary arteries angiography and interventional therapy was performed in 6 of the 53 cases.Multi-planar reconstruction(MPR),maximum intensity projection(MIP),curved-planar reconstruction(CPR)and volume rendering(VR)were used to display coronary arteries,pulmonary arteries,thoracic and abdomen aorta.The image quality was then evaluated according to whether the examinations can fulfill the clinical demand for the differential diagnosis of acute chest pain.Results:In the 53 cases,there were 33 cases with coronary arteries disease,9 cases with aortic dissection or dissecting aneurysm,2 cases with pulmonary arteries embolism,2 cases with spontaneous rupture of esophagus,2 cases with pneumothorax.Conclusion:CTA examination with 16-slice spiral CT can display the coronary arteries,pulmonary arteries,thoracic aorta in 11～13s with good image quality.It is of great value of clinical application in the etiological diagnosis for the patients with acute chest pain.
