What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of patients with different ALDH2 genotype
Time Frame: 1-30 days after samples collected
DNA was extracted from venous blood;genomic DNA underwent PCR amplification; finally, PCR products were purified and directly sequenced by Invitrogen Corp or Biosune Corp.Then ALDH2 genotype was distinguished depend on a G-to-A missense mutation on exon 12 of ALDH2 gene.
1-30 days after samples collected

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Concentration of inflammatory factors in blood and aortic specimen
Time Frame: 1-30 days after samples collected
Concentration of 4-HNE、MMP-2、MMP-9 detected by elisa kit、IHC or western blot in relevant specimen.
1-30 days after samples collected
ALDH2 activity
Time Frame: 1-30 days after samples collected
Activity of ALDH2 was detected in blood and aortic specimen depend on its reducibility of NAD+
1-30 days after samples collected
