RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The clinical implications of different definitions of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients without baseline renal dysfunction are not well defined. METHODS: Consecutive patients at a single centre without baseline renal dysfunction (estimated glomerular filtration rate, eGFR≥60ml/min/1.73m2) undergoing coronary angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), were systematically evaluated for long-term risk of mortality following CIN using two broad definitions: an absolute increase from baseline in serum creatinine (SCr) ≥0.3mg/dl (mild to severe absolute CIN) and a relative increase from baseline of 25% (mild to severe relative CIN) within 72hours. RESULT: Of 2,823 subjects alive before discharge following coronary angiography there were 320 episodes of mild to severe relative CIN (11.3%) and 125 of mild to severe absolute CIN (4.4%). During a median follow-up of 2.3years, 73 patients (3.2%) died. After adjustment for confounders, mild to severe absolute CIN was associated with an adjusted hazard ratio (HR) (95% confidence interval) for all-cause mortality of 3.31 (1.74-6.30) (p<0.0001) and relative CIN with an adjusted HR of 1.92 (1.09, 3.38) (p=0.024). The risk of mortality rose with severity of CIN. Two commonly used definitions of CIN combining absolute and relative terms (increase ≥ 0.3mg/dl or 50%, and ≥ 0.5mg/dl or 25% from the baseline) confirmed these results. CONCLUSION: Among patients without baseline renal dysfunction undergoing coronary angiography, the incidence of CIN can range widely depending on definition. Absolute CIN is less common than relative CIN. Regardless of definition, CIN is associated with a markedly increased risk of long-term mortality. This finding requires confirmation in multicentre studies.

BACKGROUND: Few studies have assessed the predictive value of the ratio of the contrast media volume or grams of iodine to the creatinine clearance (V/CrCl or g-I/CrCl, respectively) for the risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) and mortality after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS: The association between V/CrCl and mortality was prospectively evaluated in 1,135 consecutive patients undergoing PCI. Cox regression models were used to adjust for the V/CrCl ratio and other confounding factors for risk of death within 1 year. RESULTS: Fifty-five patients (4.84%) developed CIN. The 1-year mortality was higher in patients with a V/CrCl ratio >2.62 (g-I/CrCl >0.97) than in others (4.44% vs 0.40%; P < .001). After adjusting for other risk factors, the 1-year mortality risk remained associated with increased V/CrCl ratio. The risk of death was significant for V/CrCl >2.62 (adjusted risk ratio [RR] for death 2.605, 95% CI 1.040-6.529, P = .041), V/CrCl >3.0 (g-I/CrCl >1.11) (adjusted RR 4.338, 95% CI 1.689-11.142, P = .002), and V/CrCl >3.7 (g-I/CrCl >1.37) (adjusted RR 2.557, 95% CI 1.162-5.627, P = .002). CONCLUSION: The data further support the prognostic significance of calculating the V/CrCl ratio to predict the relative maximum contrast volume during PCI. Use of a contrast dose determined based on the estimated renal function with a planned V/CrCl ratio <3.7 (g-I/CrCl <1.37) and preferably <2.62 (g-I/CrCl <0.97) might be valuable in reducing the risks of CIN and even death after PCI.

BACKGROUND: Elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] levels predict cardiovascular events incidence in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Genetic variants in the rs3798220, rs10455872 and rs6415084 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the Lp(a) gene (LPA) correlate with elevated Lp(a) levels, but whether these SNPs have prognostic value for CAD patients is unknown. The present study evaluated the association of LPA SNPs with incidence of subsequent cardiovascular events in CAD patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS: TaqMan SNP genotyping assays were performed to detect the rs6415084, rs3798220 and rs10455872 genotypes in 517 Chinese Han patients with CAD after PCI. We later assessed whether there was an association of these SNPs with incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE: cardiac death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke and coronary revascularization). Serum lipid profiles were also determined using biochemical methods. RESULTS: Only the rs6415084 variant allele was associated with higher Lp(a) levels [41.3 (20.8, 74.6) vs. 18.6 (10.3, 40.9) mg/dl, p < 0.001]. During a 2-year follow-up period, 102 patients suffered MACE, and Cox regression analysis demonstrated that elevated Lp(a) (≥30 mg/dl) levels correlated with increased MACE (adjusted HR, 1.69; 95% CI 1.13-2.53), but there was no association between LPA genetic variants (rs6415084 and rs3798220) and MACE incidence (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Our data did not support a relationship between genetic LPA variants (rs6415084 and rs3798220) and subsequent cardiovascular events after PCI in Chinese Han CAD patients.

The complete mol-ecule of the title complex, [Co(C(14)H(9)Br(2)FNO)(2)], is generated by crystallographic twofold symmetry, with the Co(II) atom lying on the rotation axis. The coordination of the metal atom by the two N,O-bidentate ligands results in a squashed CoN(2)O(2) tetra-hedron. The six-membered chelate ring is an envelope, with the metal atom as the flap. The dihedral angle between the planes of the aromatic rings within each ligand is 84.1â (6)°.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the influences of different aspiration results by Diver C.E. aspiration thrombectomy catheter on myocardium perfusion and clinical outcomes during emergency PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) for the patients with acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS: The patients undergoing emergent PCI and using Diver C.E. aspiration thrombectomy catheter with STEMI from July 2008 to February 2011 were enrolled into the study group. According to the aspiration results, they were divided into 2 groups: aspiration-positive group (n = 38) and aspiration-negative group (n = 28). And those undergoing routine PCI alone during the same period were enrolled into the control group (n = 66). The baseline profiles, immediate post-operative CAG (coronary angiography) and follow-up data were compared. RESULTS: No significant baseline differences existed among 3 groups. Compared with the control group, all parameters significantly improved in the aspiration-positive group. But in the aspiration-negative group, the differences of slow flow/no-reflow and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were insignificant (P > 0.05). Compared with the aspiration-negative group, cTFC (29 ± 9 vs 35 ± 11 frames, P < 0.05), ST segment (90% ± 20% vs 76% ± 25%, P < 0.05) and the peak serum levels of CK-MB (creatine kinase-MB) and TnT (troponin-T) [CK-MB: (201 ± 86) U/L vs (264 ± 93) U/L, P < 0.05; TnT: (41 ± 21) µg/L vs (60 ± 24) µg/L, P < 0.05] decreased significantly. But the differences in slow flow/no-reflow and MACE were insignificant (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: Application of Diver CE. during emergent PCI i.s both safe and efficacious for STEMI patients with heavier thrombus burden. It may improve distal myocardium perfusion and abate myocardial damage. The patients with positive aspiration results have better clinical outcome. But the efficacy of aspiration-negative patients needs further evaluations.

To understand the characteristics of ammonia volatilization in Losses Plateau, an experiment was conducted in a typical solar greenhouse involving four treatments. Intermittent ventilation chamber method was used to measure NH3 volatilization over the period of tomato-watermelon rotation. The results showed that nitrogen transformation was rapid in solar greenhouse system. The peak NH3 volatilization rate appeared one to two days after fertilization with the range from 0.26 to 2.02 kg N·hm-2·d-1. The NH3 volatilization lasted for about one week in all treatments. No significant differences were recorded in terms of cumulative NH3 volatilization among all nitrogen fertilizer input treatments. The cumulative NH3 losses further increased about 46.7% in two seasons under the same nitrogen application rate, however when irrigation application was decreased. The average NH3 vola-tilization rate and cumulative NH3 losses in watermelon season were higher compared to tomato season, which might be attributed to high temperature during watermelon season. Soil NH4+-N content, water filled pore space, soil temperature of 0-5 cm layer and air temperature all had extremely significant effect on NH3 volatilization rate, while a negative correlation was observed between soil pH and NH3 volatilization rate. Between the different cropping seasons, the rate of NH3 volatilization and cumulative NH3 losses were different, and decreased with decreases in nitrogen input, while reduced irrigation volume increased NH3 volatilization under the same nitrogen application rate.

Importance: The association of parenteral anticoagulation therapy with improved outcomes in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome was previously established. This benefit has not been evaluated in the era of dual antiplatelet therapy and percutaneous coronary intervention. Objective: To evaluate the association between parenteral anticoagulation therapy and clinical outcomes in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Design, Setting, and Participants: This cohort study included 8197 adults who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention for non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2014, at 5 medical centers in China. Patients receiving parenteral anticoagulation therapy only after percutaneous coronary intervention were excluded. Exposures: Parenteral anticoagulation therapy. Main Outcomes and Measures: The primary outcome was in-hospital all-cause death and in-hospital major bleeding as defined by the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium definition (grades 3-5). Results: Of 6804 patients who met the final criteria, 5104 (75.0%) were male, with a mean (SD) age of 64.2 (10.4) years. The incidence of in-hospital death was not significantly different between the patients who received and did not receive parenteral anticoagulation therapy (0.3% vs 0.1%; P = .13) (adjusted odds ratio, 1.27; 95% CI, 0.38-4.27; P = .70). A similar result was found for myocardial infarction (0.3% vs 0.3%; P = .82) (adjusted odds ratio, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.29-2.07; P = .61). In-hospital major bleeding was more frequent in the parenteral anticoagulation group (2.5% vs 1.0%; P < .001) (adjusted odds ratio, 1.94; 95% CI, 1.24-3.03; P = .004). At a median (interquartile range) follow-up of 2.96 years (1.93-4.46 years), all-cause death was not significantly different between the 2 groups (adjusted hazards ratio, 0.87; 95% CI, 0.71-1.07; P = .19), but the incidence of major bleeding was higher in the parenteral anticoagulation group (adjusted hazards ratio, 1.43; 95% CI, 1.01-2.02; P = .04). The propensity score analysis confirmed these primary analyses. Conclusions and Relevance: In the patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome, parenteral anticoagulation therapy was not associated with a lower risk of all-cause death or myocardial infarction but was significantly associated with a higher risk of major bleeding. These findings raise important safety questions about the current practice of routine parenteral anticoagulation therapy while we await randomized trials of this practice.

RESUMO
The application of nitrogen (N) fertilizer results in decreases of soil pH, but its effects on CO2 emission from soils with different inorganic carbon contents remain unclear. An closed-jar incubation experiment was conducted to examine the effects of N fertilizer and nitrification inhibitor (DCD) on soil pH and CO2 emissions from three soil types with different contents of soil inorganic carbon (SIC), including paddy soil (PS), lime concretion black soil (CS), and eum-orthic anthrosols (AS). There were three treatments for each soil type, including control (N0), 0.2 g·kg-1 N fertilizer (N0.2), and its combination with DCD (N0.2+DCD). Soil pH, contents of mineral N (NH4+, NO3-), and CO2 emissions were measured. The results showed that N fertilizer addition significantly reduced soil pH and increased soil CO2 cumulative emissions in each type of soil. Compared to control, the CO2 cumulative emissions after 49 days incubation from the three soil types were enhanced by 39.4%, 23.4%, and 71.8% for PS, CS, AS soils, respectively. The soil pH of N0.2+DCD for three soil types were significantly higher than N0.2 after 49 days incubation, indicating that DCD application inhibited soil nitrification process. There were no significant differences in the mean CO2 cumulative emissions of PS and CS soils between N0.2 and N0.2+DCD treatments; however, N0.2+DCD treatment significantly reduced cumulative CO2 emissions from AS soil by 12.5%. Soil inorganic carbon can effectively buffer soil acidification caused by N fertilizer addition. The CO2 emission in calcareous soil following N addition is not only derived from the mineralization of soil organic carbon, but also from the dissolution of inorganic carbon. Given the large differences in soil inorganic carbon content in different regions of China, the problem of soil acidification and soil inorganic carbon pool consumption caused by long-term large amount of N fertilizer inputs deserve more attention.

The cytoplasmic male-sterility (CMS) was transferred into leaf mustard by inter-varietal hybridization and subsequent backcrosses cms donor as using tuber mustard. Using specially designed primers, one specific band at 600-700 bp was distinctively amplified by PCR from cms plants of different backcrossed generations. It was genetically stable and cytoplasmically inheritable in the various backcrossed progenies. The sequencing result shows it is a 663 bp fragment with its own initiation and termination codons, presumably encoding for 220 amino acids (named orf 220). This deduced polypeptide had two trans-membrane hydrophilic domains and its N-terminus shared high similarity in amino acids constituents with COX III protein from Oenothera berteriana, ATP8 protein from radish and ORFB protein from sunflower. In addition, RT-PCR analysis showed, orf 220 gene was constitutively expressed in leaves, roots and floral buds. However, the direct evidence of its involvement in expression of cms trait needs further confirmation.

OBJECTIVE: To study the mechanism and significance of pH change in the coronary artery microthrombosis of rats. METHODS: After the sodium laurate-induced model of coronary artery microthrombosis of rats was constructed, the vascular endothelial cells were separated and then cultured in the mediums with different pH values for 24 h. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the content of von Willebrand factor (vWF) in the medium; while the real-time PCR and western blot assay were used to detect the expression of fibrinogen-like protein 2 (FGL2) at the mRNA and protein level. The comprehensive evaluation was performed to discuss the effect of pH change on the coronary artery microthrombosis of rats. RESULTS: The expression level of vWF detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was 336.67 ± 24.95, 311.33 ± 14.98, 359.67 ± 39.63, 354.67 ± 49.01 and 332.00 ± 33.42 (pg/mL) respectively; while the expression of vWF in the model group was 570.00 ± 57.94, 524.67 ± 57.94, 437.00 ± 95.38, 415.33 ± 44.38 and 444.67 ± 74.31 respectively. Being cultured under the different pH values, the relative expression level of FGL2 mRNA in the model group was 7.93 ± 0.93, 6.70 ± 0.70, 5.03 ± 0.32, 5.13 ± 0.40 and 5.57 ± 0.83 respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The coronary artery microthrombosis of rats can cause the high expression and secretion of vWF. Meanwhile, FGL2 is also up-regulated in the thrombosis and such up-regulation is more significant in the condition with low pH, which indicates that the low pH condition may be one of factors that contribute to the cardiovascular diseases.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Few studies have investigated the safe limits of contrast to prevent contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) based on hydration data. We aimed to investigate the relative safe maximum contrast volume adjusted for hydration volume in a population with a relatively low risk of CIN. METHODS AND RESULTS: The ratios of contrast volume-to-creatinine clearance (V/CrCl) and hydration volume to body weight (HV/W) were determined in patients undergoing cardiac catheterization. Receiver-operator characteristic curve analysis based on the maximum Youden index was used to identify the optimal cutoff for V/CrCl in all patients and in HV/W subgroups. Eighty-six of 3273 (2.6%) patients with mean CrCl 71.89±27.02 mL/min developed CIN. Receiver-operator characteristic curve analysis indicated that a V/CrCl ratio of 2.44 was a fair discriminator for CIN in all patients (sensitivity, 73.3%; specificity, 70.4%). After adjustment for other confounders, V/CrCl >2.44 continued to be significantly associated with CIN (adjusted odds ratio, 4.12; P<0.001) and the risk of death (adjusted hazard ratio, 2.62; P<0.001). The mean HV/W was 12.18±7.40. We divided the patients into 2 groups (HV/W ≤12 and >12 mL/kg). The best cutoff value for V/CrCl was 1.87 (sensitivity, 67.9%; specificity, 64.4%; adjusted odds ratio, 3.24; P=0.011) in the insufficient hydration subgroup (HV/W, ≤12 mL/kg; CIN, 1.32%) and 2.93 (sensitivity, 69.0%; specificity, 65.0%; adjusted odds ratio, 3.04; P=0.004) in the sufficient hydration subgroup (HV/W, >12 mL/kg; CIN, 5.00%). CONCLUSIONS: The V/CrCl ratio adjusted for HV/W may be a more reliable predictor of CIN and even long-term outcomes after cardiac catheterization. We also found a higher best cutoff value for V/CrCl to predict CIN in patients with a relatively sufficient hydration status, which may be beneficial during decision-making about contrast dose limits in relatively low-risk patients with different hydration statuses.

BACKGROUND: Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is associated with endothelial dysfunction, inflammation and increased vasoconstriction, which are involved in the development of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). However, whether LDL-C is an independent risk factor of CI-AKI in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unknown. METHODS: We prospectively enrolled 3236 consecutive patients undergoing PCI between January 2010 and September 2012. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine whether LDL-C is an independent risk factor of CI-AKI. CI-AKI was defined as an absolute increase in serum creatinine of ≥ 0.5 mg/dL or ≥ 25% over the baseline value within 48-72 h after contrast exposure. RESULTS: CI-AKI was observed in 338 patients (10.4%). Patients with CI-AKI had a significantly higher rate of in hospital mortality (4.4% vs. 0.5%, p < 0.001), and significantly higher rates of other in hospital complications compared with those without CI-AKI. The LDL-C quartiles were as follows: Q1 (<2.04 mmol/L), Q2 (2.04-2.61 mmol/L), Q3 (2.61-3.21 mmol/L) and Q4 (>3.21 mmol/L). Patients with high baseline LDL-C levels were more likely to develop CI-AKI and composite end points including all-cause mortality, renal replacement therapy, non-fatal myocardial infarction, acute heart failure, target vessel revascularization or cerebrovascular accident during the observation period of hospitalization (8.9%, 9.9%, 10.5%, 12.6%, p = 0.001, and 5.0%, 5.2%, 6.1%, 8.1%, respectively; p = 0.007). Univariate logistic analysis showed that LDL-C levels (increment 1 mmol/L) were significantly associated with CI-AKI (odds ratio = 1.25, 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.11-1.39, p < 0.001). Furthermore, LDL-C remained a significant risk factor of CI-AKI (odds ratio = 1.23, 95% CI, 1.04-1.45, p = 0.014), even after adjusting for potential confounding risk factors. CONCLUSIONS: Measurement of plasma LDL-C concentrations in patients undergoing PCI may be helpful to identify those who are at risk of CI-AKI and poor in hospital outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Sequence variants in the ß-adrenergic receptor (ADRB) genes have a close relationship with the development of coronary artery disease (CAD) and the patient's prognosis. However, there is a lack of data on the role of the variants in ADRBs genes in Han Chinese patients with CAD. We aimed to investigate the association of genetic variants in the ADRB1 and ADRB2 genes with the incidence of major adverse cardiac event (MACE) in Han Chinese patients with CAD. METHODS: A total of 545 Han Chinese patients with CAD undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were recruited to the study and followed for one year. Three variant sites in ADRB1 (rs1801253) and ADRB2 (rs1042713 and rs1042714) were genotyped. The effect of the ADRB1 and ADRB2 genotypes on MACE within one year was assessed. RESULTS: There were 47 cases of MACE during follow-up. There was no significant difference in the incidence of MACE among patients carrying different genotypes of the three variants in ADRB1 and ADRB2 (Log-rank, all P > 0.05). Cox regression analysis showed no association between three variants in ADRB1 and ADRB2 genes and the incidence of MACE during one-year follow-up, the adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) for rs1801253, rs1042713 and rs1042714 were 1.05 (0.54-2.02), 1.24 (0.58-2.64) and 1.66 (0.81-3.42), respectively. CONCLUSION: Our data did not support a relationship between the three polymorphisms of ADRB1 (rs1801253) and ADRB2 (rs1042713 and rs1042714) genes and risk of subsequent cardiovascular events after PCI in Han Chinese patients with CAD.

In this paper, soluble organic carbon (SOC) and nitrogen (SON) were extracted from manure, and their adsorption characteristics in Argosols and Anthrosols in Guanzhong region of Shaanxi Province were investigated. The results showed that the adsorption of SON and SOC in the two soils could be fitted by initial mass isotherm model, and the adsorbed amounts of SON and SOC had a significant linear relationship with the initial concentrations of SON and SOC added into soils. The partition coefficient, m of the initial mass isotherm model, indicated that Argosols had a higher adsorbility than Anthrosols. The average adsorption rates of SON and SOC in Anthrosols were 24.3% and 18.8%, and those in Argosols were 38.3% and 18.6%, respectively. The low adsorption rates of SON and SOC indicated their high mobility in the two soils, and more SON was adsorbed than SOC suggested the higher potential of SOC leaching from soil.
