Randomized Controlled Trial[Myocardial protective effect of Shenfu injection in patients undergoing valve replacement].
To investigate the myocardial protective effect of Shenfu injection in patients undergoing valve replacement. ⋯ Shenfu injection decreases the level of CK, CK-MB and cTnI, and reduces the myocardial injury.

Randomized Controlled Trial[Adenosine preconditioning reduces myocardial injury in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting surgery].
To evaluate the effects of adenosine on reducing myocardial injuries in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). ⋯ OPCAB can cause myocardial injuries which can be reduced by adenosine preconditioning through the reduction of the release of CK-MB and cTnI.

[The role of whole body 2-[fluorine-18]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography in the management of unknown primary tumors].
To assess the role of 2-[fluorine-18]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in the management of unknown primary primary (CUP) with metastatic loci. ⋯ (18)F-FDG PET/CT has relevant impact on the therapeutic management of patients with unknown primary tumor. It is recommended that (18)F-FDG PET/CT be performed in the patient with unknown primary tumor after unsuccessful conventional diagnostic workup.

[Pathological study of unexpected sudden death clustered in family or village in Yunnan province: report of 29 cases of autopsy].
To investigate the pathological features and causes of sudden death clustered in family or village in Yunnan province so as to provide the morphological basis for exploring its etiology and medical intervention. ⋯ The pathological changes of the cases of clustered sudden death in Yunnan province are various, such as myocarditis, myocardial dysplasia and the other lethal heart-lung disorders. No case of Keshan disease has been found. Arrhythmogenic right ventricle cardiomyopathy and other foundational heart diseases might act as a background. It is very hard to contribute only one etiological factor to the clustering of sudden death in Yunnan. It was most likely that multiple factors cluster and trigger an outbreak of death in a definite time and space.

Clinical Trial[Effect of noninvasive ventilation on chemoresponsiveness in patients with sleep apnea and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease].
To investigate the effect of noninvasive ventilation on respiratory control in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) combined with sleep a apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS)-overlap syndrome (OS). ⋯ Hypercapnic and hypoxic responses in patients with OS and in patients with OSAHS respond differently after pressure support ventilation. This indicates that depressed chemoresponsiveness in patients with OS may not be only a response to sleep-disordered breathing.
