RESUMO
Acute intestinal graft-versus-host disease is a refractory disease which can affect implantation and become a threat to life in severe cases. Autophagy is an intracellular degradation pathway necessary for maintaining cellular energy homeostasis. In recent years, a large number of studies have found that it is closely related to the pathogenesis and process of acute intestinal graft-versus-host disease. The main mechanisms may involve that inflammatory factor storm after pretreatment and infusion of donor cells induces disordered intestinal immune tolerance, and abnormal oxidative stress damages intestinal mucosal barrier, leading to intestinal rejection of acute graft-versus-host disease via mTOR signal pathway of autophagy, disordered mitophagy and other related pathways.

Objective: To explore the relationship between ABO blood group and acute non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) occurrence. Methods: Our research included 2 groups: NSTEMI group, 1039 relevant patients treated in Anzhen hospital from 2013-01 to 2014-12 were retrospectively enrolled; Control group, 1039 subjects with normal coronary artery which was confirmed by coronary angiography. The Baseline condition including age, previous disease history and ABO blood group was studied. Logistic regression model was used to conduct single and multivariate analysis. Results: In NSTEMI group and Control group, blood type A was 287/1039 (27.6％) vs 259 (24.9％), type B was 345 (33.3％) vs 356 (34.3％), type AB was 102 (9.8％) vs 114 (11.0％) and type O was 305 (29.4％) vs 310 (29.8％), ABO blood group distribution for A and non-A, B and non-B, AB and non-AB blood group, O and non-O had no statistic meaning between 2 groups, P>0.05. Logistic regression analysis indicated that with adjusted risk factors of MI such as age, gender, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipemia, cerebrovascular disease and smoking, the patients with blood types A, B and AB had the similar risk for NSTEMI occurrence than type O patients; there was no relationship between ABO blood group and NSTEMI occurrence. Conclusion: ABO blood group had no relationship to NSTEMI occurrence.
RESUMO
Objective:To compare the long-term prognosis of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with ostial/shaft lesions of unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA).Methods:A total of 259 patients with isolated ostial/midshaft lesions of ULMCA who received PCI or CABG in our hospital from 2003-01 to 2009-07 were enrolled.The patients were divided into 2 groups:PCI group,n=149 patients who received drug-eluting stents (DES) implantation and CABG group,n=110.The end points were all cause death,myocardial infarction (MI) and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) which included cardiac death,non-fetal MI,stroke,repeated revascularization and the composite events death.Results:The median follow-up period was 7.1 years (inter quartile range 5.3-8.2 years) in all patients.Before multivariate adjusting,the following parameters were similar between PCI group and CABG group:all cause death (12.7％ vs 29.7％),P=-0.096;non-fatal MI (14.8％ vs 8.5％),P=0.844;stroke (9.3％ vs 6.3％),P=0.904;repeated revascularization (26.8％ vs 19.0％),P=0.234;composite events of cardiac death/stroke/MI (18.9％ vs 20.3％),P=0.224 and MACCE occurrence (37.5％ vs 34.2％),P=0.946.With adjusted variations,the trend was similar to pre-adjustment.Conclusion:During the maximum 8.2 years follow-up period,PCI and CABG had the similar efficacy and safety in patients with ostial/shaft lesions of ULMCA.

RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effects of the generation 4 polyamidoamine/vascular endothelial growth factor antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (G4PAMAM/VEGFASODN) compound on the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its mRNA of breast cancer cells and on the inhibition of vascular endothelial cells.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We examined the morphology of G4PAMAM/VEGFASODN compound and its pH stability, in vitro transfection efficiency and toxicity, and the expressions of VEGF and its mRNA. Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium assay was used to detect the inhibitory function of the compound on vascular endothelial cells.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The compound was about 10 nm in diameter and was homogeneously netlike. From pH 5 to 10, it showed quite a buffered ability. The 48-h transfection rate in the charge ratio of 1:40 was 98.76%, significantly higher than that of the liposome group (P<0.05). None of the transfection products showed obvious toxicity on the cells. The expressions of both VEGF protein and its mRNA after G4PAMAM/VEGFASODN transfection decreased markedly.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>With a low toxicity, high safety, and high transfection rate, G4PAMAM/VEGFASODN could be a promising gene vector. Specifically, it inhibits VEGF gene expression efficiently, laying a basis for further in vivo animal studies.</p>
