RESUMO

Objective: To evaluate the hemostatic efficacy, safety and immunogenicity of recombinant human thrombin in the treatment of liver wounds that still ooze after conventional surgical hemostasis. Methods: A multicenter, stratified randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase Ⅲ trial with a planned enrollment of 510 subjects at 33 centers, with a 2∶1 randomization to the thrombin group versus the placebo group. An interim analysis will be conducted after approximately 70% of the subjects have completed the observation period. The primary efficacy endpoint was the rate of hemostasis within 6 minutes at the point of bleeding that could be evaluated. Safety analysis was performed one month after surgery, and the positive rates of anti-drug antibody (ADA) and neutralizing antibody were evaluated. Results: At the interim analysis, a total of 348 subjects had been randomized and received the study drug (215 were male and 133 were female). They were aged 19-69 (52.9±10.9)years. Among them, 232 were in the thrombin group and 116 were in the placebo group, with balanced and comparable demographics and baseline characteristics between the two groups. The hemostasis rate at 6 minutes was 71.6% (95%CI:65.75%-77.36%) in the thrombin group and 44.0% (95%CI: 34.93%-53.00%) in the placebo group, respectively (P<0.001). No grade≥3 drug-related adverse events and no drug-related deaths were reported from the study.No recombinant human thrombin-induced immunologically-enhanced ADA or immunologically-induced ADA was detected after topical use in subjects. Conclusion: Recombinant human thrombin has shown significant hemostatic efficacy and good safety in controlling bleeding during liver resection surgery, while also demonstrating low immunogenicity characteristics.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Central nervous system damage is an essential clinical feature that occurs in the early or late stages of syphilis infection. The abnormal enhancement of microglial phagocytosis can cause damage to the nervous system. However, the contribution of abnormally enhanced microglial phagocytosis to the pathogenesis of Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum (T. pallidum) infection remains unknown. OBJECTIVES: In this study, we sought to determine the role of recombinant T. pallidum Tp47 in promoting microglia phagocytosis and its associated mechanisms. METHODS: Microglial HMC3 cells were used to investigate the effect of the Tp47 on phagocytosis and the roles of autophagy and endoplasmic reticulum stress in Tp47-induced phagocytosis. RESULTS: HMC3 cells exhibited obvious phagocytosis when stimulated with Tp47. The levels of P62 degradation, Beclin1 expression and the LC3II/LC3I ratio were significantly elevated, and the fusion of autophagosomes and lysosomes was promoted in Tp47-stimulated HMC3 cells. Treatment with the autophagy inhibitors 3-MA and Baf A1 inhibited Tp47-induced phagocytosis. Meanwhile, the endoplasmic reticulum stress markers PERK, IRE1α, GRP78, ATF4 and XBP1s were upregulated in Tp47-stimulated HMC3 cells. In addition, we found that TUDCA could inhibit Tp47-induced expression of IRE1α but not PERK or ATF4. 4-PBA inhibited TP47-induced PERK and ATF4 protein expression but did not inhibit IRE1α expression. Attenuation of endoplasmic reticulum stress by administration of TUDCA and 4-PBA abrogated Tp47-mediated autophagy. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggested that Tp47 activated autophagy through two key pathways associated with endoplasmic reticulum stress, PERK/ATF4 and IRE1/XBP1, to promote phagocytosis in HMC3 cells. These findings provided a basis for the understanding of the pathophysiology of neurological disorders that occur during the course of syphilis.

RESUMO

Objective: To explore the therapeutic effects of transoral robotic surgery (TORS) and traditional surgical modes in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). Methods: The clinicopathological data of patients with oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma treated at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from 2010 to 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. 135 cases were treated with traditional surgery (non-TORS group), while 52 cases were treated with TORS (TORS group). The prognosis of the two groups of patients were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method and Log rank test, the influencing factors were analyzed by Cox regression model. Results: The 2-year overall survival (OS, 94.2%) and 2-year progression-free survival (PFS, 93.8%) of patients in the TORS group were better than those in the non-TORS group (71.4% and 71.4%, respectively, P<0.05). The 2-year OS (93.3%) and 2-year PFS (92.8%) of TORS group patients in T1-2 stage were better than those of non-TORS group (73.1% and 72.8%, respectively, P<0.05). The 2-year OS (95.8%) and 2-year PFS (95.2%) of patients with stage Ⅰ to Ⅱ in the TORS group were not significantly different from those in the non-TORS group (84.1% and 83.9%, respectively, P>0.05). The 2-year OS (92.9%) and 2-year PFS rate (92.7%) of patients with stage Ⅲ to Ⅳ in the TORS group were better than those in the non-TORS group (64.7% and 63.9%, respectively, P<0.05). The 2-year OS (94.4%) of HPV-positive patients in the TORS group was not significantly different from that in the non-TORS group (83.3%, P=0.222). The 2-year OS of HPV-negative patients in the TORS group (94.1%) was significantly different from that in the non-TORS group (43.7%, P<0.001). HPV status was an independent prognostic factor (P=0.008). Conclusions: TORS has a better prognosis in the treatment of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma compared with the traditional treatment methods. The patients with T1-T2 can achieve better survival benefits after TORS treatment. The HPV-positive OPSCC patients has a better prognosis than that of HPV-negative OPSCC patients, and regardless of HPV status, OPSCC patients in the TORS group could obtain a better survival prognosis.

RESUMO

Objective: To evaluate the indications, safety, feasibility, and surgical technique for patients with head and neck cancers undergoing transoral robotic retropharyngeal lymph node (RPLN) dissection. Methods: The current study enrolled 12 consecutive head and neck cancer patients (seven males and four females) who underwent transoral robotic RPLN dissection with the da Vinci surgical robotic system at the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from May 2019 to July 2020. Seven patients were diagnosed as nasopharyngeal carcinoma with RPLN metastasis after initial treatments, 4 patients were diagnosed as thyroid carcinoma with RPLN metastasis after initial treatments, and one patient was diagnosed as oropharyngeal carcinoma with RPLN metastasis before initial treatments. The operation procedure and duration time, intraoperative blood loss volume and complications, nasogastric feeding tube dependence, tracheostomy dependence, postoperative complications, and hospitalization time were recorded and analyzed. Results: All patients were successfully treated by transoral robotic dissection of the metastatic RPLNs, none of which was converted to open surgery. RPLNs were completely resected in 10 patients, and partly resected in 2 patients (both were nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients). The mean number of RPLN dissected was 1.7. The operation duration time and intraoperative blood loss volume were (191.3±101.1) min and (150.0±86.6) ml, respectively. There was no severe intraoperative complication such as massive haemorrhage or adjacent organ injury during surgery. Nasogastric tube use was required in all patients with (17.1±10.6) days of dependence, while tracheotomy was performed in 8 patients with (11.6±10.7) days of dependence. The postoperative hospitalization stay was (8.5±5.7) days. Postoperative complications occurred in 4 patients, including 2 of retropharyngeal incision and 2 of dysphagia. During a follow-up of (6.5±5.1) months, disease-free progression was observed in all patients, 10 patients were disease-free survival and other 2 patients were survival with tumor burden. Conclusions: The transoral robotic RPLN dissection is safety and feasible. Compared with the traditional open surgical approach, it is less traumatic and safer, has fewer complications and good clinical application potentiality. The indications for transoral robotic RPLN dissection include thyroid carcinoma, oropharyngeal carcinoma, and some selected nasopharyngeal carcinoma and other head and neck cancers. Metastatic RPLNs from some nasopharyngeal carcinoma with incomplete capsule, unclear border and adhesion to the surrounding vessels are not suitable for transoral robotic RPLN dissection.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm is one of the most challenging aortic diseases. Open surgical repair remains constrained with considerable perioperative morbidity and mortality. The emergence of a hybrid approach utilizing visceral debranching with endovascular aneurysm repair has brought an alternative for high-risk patients. This study aimed to compare the short- and long-term outcomes between hybrid and open repairs in the treatment of thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms. METHODS: In this retrospectively observational study, patients with thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm treated in a single center between January 2008 and December 2019 were reviewed, of whom 11 patients with hybrid repair, and 18 patients with open repair were identified. Demographic characteristic, operative data, perioperative morbidity and mortality, freedom from reintervention, and long-term survival were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: In the hybrid repair group, the patients with dissection aneurysm, preoperative combined renal insufficiency, and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score of 3 or more were significantly overwhelming than in the open repair group. The operation time of debranching hybrid repair was (445±85) min, and the intraoperative blood loss was (955±599) mL. There were 2 cases of complications in the early 30 days after surgery, without paraplegia, and 1 case died. The 30-day complication rate was 18.2%, and the 30-day mortality was 9.1%. The operation time of the patients with open repair was (560±245) min, and the intraoperative blood loss was (6 100±4 536) mL. Twelve patients had complications in the early 30 days after surgery, including 1 paraplegia and 4 deaths within 30 days. The 30-day complication rate was 66.7%, and the 30-day mortality was 22.2%. The bleeding volume in hybrid repair was significantly reduced compared with open repair (P < 0.001). Besides, the incidence of 30-day complications in hybrid surgery was significantly reduced (P=0.011). During the follow-up period, there were 4 reinterventions and 3 deaths in hybrid repair group. The 1-year, 5-year, and 10-year all-cause survival rates were 72%, 54%, and 29%, respectively. In open repair group, reintervention was performed in 1 case and 5 cases died, and the 1-year, 5-year, and 10-year all-cause survival rates were 81%, 71%, and 35%, respectively. There was no significant difference between hybrid repair and open repair in all-cause survival and aneurysm-specific survival. CONCLUSION: Hybrid approach utilizing visceral debranching with endovascular aneurysm repair is a safe and effective surgical method for high-risk patients with thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysms. The incidence of early postoperative complications and mortality is significantly reduced compared with traditional surgery, but the efficacy in the medium and long term still needs to be improved.

RESUMO

Objectives: To establish a grading model on prognosis of drug-coated balloon (DCB) treatment on femoropopliteal de novo lesions, and assess whether patients at high risk could benefit from combination of directional atherectomy(DA). Methods: The clinical data of 114 patients with femoropopliteal de novo lesions admitted to Department of Vascular Surgery, Peking University People's Hospital from October 2015 to January 2019 were collected retrospectively. There were 95 patients(108 limbs) underwent DCB treatment, including 66 males and 29 females, aged 71.9 years old(range:48 to 91 years), and 19 patients (21 limbs) underwent DA combined with DCB treatment, including 13 males and 6 females, aged 69.5 years old(range: 62 to 80 years). The demographic data, intraoperative and postoperative conditions of the patients were collected. Cox regression model was performed for modeling and then goodness of fit was tested. Kaplan-Meier estimate was carried out between the two groups for patients at high risk and low risk, respectively. Results: All patients were followed up for more than 24 months. Restenosis occurred on 34 limbs in DCB group and 3 limbs in DA+DCB group. Severe calcification(HR=3.804, 95%CI:2.460 to 5.883), popliteal artery involvement (HR=2.104, 95%CI:1.368 to 3.236), long lesion (HR=1.824, 95%CI:1.196 to 2.780), poor runoff(HR=1.736, 95%CI:1.025 to 2.940), chronic kidney disease(HR=1.601, 95%CI:1.040 to 2.463) were independent risk factors of restenosis after DCB treatment, and were defined 3, 2, 1, 1 and 1 points, respectively. Total points≥3 was regarded as high risk group. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients in low risk group did not benefit from DA+DCB comparing with DCB with regard to primary patency at 24 months (77.78% vs. 90.31%, P=0.271) while patients benefited from DA+DCB comparing with DCB in high risk group(88.26% vs. 20.80%, P<0.01). Conclusions: The grading model shows satisfying clinical value. The clinical effect of DA+DCB is better than DCB along in high risk group. Patients at high risk are supposed to receive aggressive vessel preparation like DA.

RESUMO

Objective: To explore the influence of lateral patellofemoral joint degeneration on the treatment of anteromedial osteoarthritis of knee joint by Oxford medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. Methods: The clinical data of 73 patients (73 knees) with knee osteoarthritis underwent unicompartmental knee arthroplasty at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University from March 2016 to December 2017 were analysed respectively.There were 18 males and 55 females, aged (68.6±7.5) years(range: 53 to 89 years).The lateral patellofemoral joints of patients were evaluated by Ahlback grading system. Patients with Ahlback 0 andⅠ were in the non degenerative group (37 cases), and those with Ahlback Ⅱ and above were in the degenerative group (36 cases). Hospital for special surgery knee score(HSS) and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities(WOMAC) osteoarthritis index, as well as the condition of kneeling, sit to stand movement, up stair and down stair were recorded. The data before and after operation were compared by paired sample t test, and the data between groups were compared by independent sample t test. χ(2) test was used for counting data. Pearson correlation analysis was used to compare the correlation between ahlback score, HSS and WOMAC osteoarthritis index. Results: The follow-up time was (35.1±6.6) months (range: 25 to 47 months).The knee function of the patients improved significantly after operation.The HSS score increased from 57.7±11.8 preoperative to 81.8±7.8 postoperative (t=16.64, P=0.00) and WOMAC osteoarthritis index decreased from 48.9±13.4 preoperative to 15.6±8.8 postoperative (t=20.48, P=0.00). There was no statistical difference in the change of HSS between the degenerative group and the non-degenerative group before and after surgery(27.5±12.2 vs. 22.5±12.3, t=-1.65, P=0.10) as well as the change of WOMAC osteoarthritis index(31.8±14.0 vs. 36.4±13.7, t=-1.35, P=0.18), but the lateral patellofemoral joint degeneration was related to inability to complete squats (χ(2)=5.17, P=0.04) and sitting up (χ(2)=7.22, P=0.01). Conclusion: The degeneration of lateral patellofemoral joint has no effect on the early functional recovery of patients with anteromedial knee osteoarthritis after Oxford medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty.

RESUMO

Peripheral arterial disease is one part of systematic atherosclerosis, becoming a heavy burden of human health. Patients in end stage of peripheral arterial disease manifest critical limb ischemia with severe rest pain and refractory ulcer. Surgical revascularization is the optimal option for patients with critical limb ischemia to avoid major amputation and improve quality of life. However, some of them contraindicate surgical revascularizations owing to coexisting morbidities. Spinal cord stimulation is reported to be effective and minimally invasive in pain relief and limb salvage for patients with limb ischemia. Here, we reported one case with chronic critical limb ischemia and gangrene of foot who underwent spinal cord stimulation, which was, as we knew, the first case in China. He was diagnosed with Burger disease and accompanied with history of stroke, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and Castleman's disease. It showed totally occlusive lesions of external iliac and femoropopliteal artery and no outflows below the knee in the computed tomography angiography. Given the complexity of lesions and weakness of the patient, spinal cord stimulation was indicated for control of rest pain and limb salvage. As specified, we implanted the temporary neurostimulator as the first step. After 2 weeks from temporary neurostimulator implantation, the patient achieved significant relief in intensity of pain, and acquired 20% improvement of transcutaneous oxygen pressure. The satisfactory results indicated probable effectiveness of spinal cord stimulation, thus we performed the permanent neurostimulator implantation 1 month later. During 2 months of follow-up, the patients stabilized at Fountain III with pain relief with one kind of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. In our case, we confirmed the significant validity of spinal cord stimulation for pain control and consequent improvement of quality of life in non-reconstructable chronic critical limb ischemia. Furthermore, we reviewed that a number of published studies suggested that spinal cord stimulation be a reasonable option for patients with critical rest pain, especially who contraindicated surgical revascularization. The application of spinal cord stimulation in pain relief for non-reconstructable chronic critical limb ischemia was approved by related guidelines released by European Society of Cardiology and Trans-Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus. Further investigations are required for assessing the long-term outcome in limb salvage.

RESUMO

Objective: To construct computational fluid model of type B aortic dissection using patient-specific reverse engineering and fluid-structure interaction, and evaluate the application of computational fluid model on aortic remodeling of type B aortic dissection. Methods: Consecutive computed tomographic angiograph data was acquired from a patient with type B aortic dissection at initial diagnosis, 1 week and 6 years after endovascular repair of primary tear entry and 3 months after endovascular repair of distal tear erosion. Three-dimensional model of aortic dissection was reversely reconstructed by Mimics, and then the model was smoothened by Geomagic. Computational fluid dynamic numerical simulation was performed in ANSYS by the means of two-way fluid-structure interaction, and the relation between blood dynamic characteristic and thrombosed remodeling of type B aortic dissection was evaluated. Results: The computational fluid model of type B aortic dissection using patient-specific reverse engineering and fluid-structure interaction method was successfully constructed. Local peak of blood pressure on the convex surface of junction at aortic arch and descending aorta was found. The wall stress was much higher at the false lumen than that at the true lumen, and the peak of wall stress converged on the edge and tear entry of false lumen. After the exclusion of proximal tear entry, the blood streamline was decreased significantly and flowed reversely. Blood flow in the remaining false lumen was retrograded from the entry at left iliac artery and formed turbulence at the top of false lumen, which was benefit for dissection thrombus remodeling. The higher pressure at the false lumen was associated with the new formation of aortic aneurysm at the distal tear. Conclusion: The computational fluid model of aortic dissection based on patient-specific reverse engineering and fluid-structure interaction method can successfully reveal the relatively truly blood dynamic and wall pressure characteristic of type B aortic dissection.

RESUMO

Odorant binding proteins (OBPs) are considered as the core molecular targets in reverse chemical ecology, which is a convenient and efficient method by which to screen potential semiochemicals. Herein, we identified a classic OBP, AbamOBP1 from Aenasius bambawalei, which showed high mRNA expression in male antennae. Fluorescence competitive binding assay (FCBA) results demonstrated that AbamOBP1 has higher binding affinity with ligands at acid pH, suggesting the physiologically inconsistent binding affinity of this protein. Amongst the four compounds with the highest binding affinities at acid pH, 2, 4, 4-trimethyl-2-pentene and 1-octen-3-one were shown to have attractant activity for male adults, whereas (-)-limonene and an analogue of 1-octen-3-ol exhibited nonbehavioural activity. Further homology modelling and fluorescence quenching experiments demonstrated that the stoichiometry of the binding of this protein to these ligands was not 1: 1, suggesting that the results of FCBA were false. In contrast, the apparent association constants (Ka) of fluorescence quenching experiments seemed to be more reliable, because 2, 4, 4-trimethyl-2-pentene and 1-octen-3-one had observably higher Ka than (-)-limonene and 1-octen-3-ol at neutral pH. Based on the characteristics of different OBPs, various approaches should be applied to study their binding affinities with ligands, which could modify and complement the results of FCBA and contribute to the application of reverse chemical ecology.

RESUMO

AIM: To quantitatively assess fat infiltration in the sacroiliac joints (SIJs) of patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) by measuring the fat/water signal ratios of periarticular bone marrow with iterative decomposition of water and fat with echo asymmetry and least square estimation (IDEAL). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Routine SIJ magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and IDEAL were performed on 40 patients with AS and 30 healthy subjects. The fat infiltration regions (FIRs) and normal-appearing regions (NARs) of patients were measured based on the fat/water signal intensity on IDEAL. RESULTS: AS patients had higher fat/water signal ratios on FIRs and NARs (65.4-85.4%, p<0.05, and 44.1-70.7%, p<0.05, respectively) compared to healthy controls (38.3-43.3%). After treatment, the fat/water signal ratios of FIRs and NARs decreased (42.1-53.7% and 41.5-50.3%, respectively), but they remained higher than in the healthy controls (p<0.05). The fat infiltration was detected more effectively with a fat fraction map of the IDEAL sequence (95%) than other sequences, including the T1-weighted sequence (65%), and the fat/water signal ratios of the sacrum and ilium between the left and right sides of SIJs were approximately the same. CONCLUSION: The findings of this study suggest that IDEAL may be useful as a quantitative and objective method for evaluating the fat infiltration in the periarticular bone marrow of SIJs with AS; additionally, the sensitivity of IDEAL is better than that of routine sequences in detecting micro-fat infiltration of SIJs, and IDEAL can be used to quantitatively measure the adipose content and monitor patient follow-up after AS treatment.

RESUMO

Objectives: To study the incidence, clinical characteristics, and prognostic impact of acute kidney injury (AKI) in very elderly patients. Methods: The very elderly patients (≥75 years) from the Geriatric Department of the Chinese PLA General Hospital between January 2007 and December 2015 were retrospectively enrolled. AKI was defined according to the 2012 Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. AKI patients were divided into survivor group and non-survivor group by their outcomes within 90 days after AKI. Prognostic survival factors were identified using the Cox proportional hazards regression model. Results: In total, 668 geriatric patients (39.0%) developed AKI, and 652 patients were included in the final analysis. The median age of the cohort was 87 (84-91) years, the majority (623 cases, 95.6%) of whom were male. Among these 652 patients, 308 (47.2%) had AKI stage 1, 164 (25.2%) had AKI stage 2, and 180 (27.6%) had AKI stage 3. Of the 652 AKI patients, the 90-day mortality was 33.6% (219/652). Multivariate analysis by the Cox model revealed that persistent AKI (HR=5.741, 95% CI: 3.356-9.822, P<0.001), more severe AKI stage (stage 2: HR=3.363, 95% CI: 1.973-5.732, P<0.001 and stage 3: HR=4.741, 95% CI: 2.807-8.008, P<0.001), high blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level (HR=1.025, 95% CI: 1.014-1.037, P<0.001), low body mass index (HR=0.939, 95% CI: 0.897-0.984, P=0.008), low mean arterial pressure (MAP) (HR=0.969, 95% CI: 0.959-0.979, P<0.001), low prealbumin level (HR=0.935, 95% CI: 0.911-0.959, P<0.001), infection (HR=1.410, 95% CI: 1.055-1.884, P=0.020), oliguria (HR=1.948, 95% CI: 1.266-2.998, P=0.002) were associated with 90-day mortality. Conclusions: The incidence of AKI increases significantly with advanced age. More frequent serum creatinine (SCr) measurements may be helpful for the early diagnosis of geriatric AKI. Identification of risk factors might promote more intensive monitoring and early prevention, and thus improve outcomes for very elderly patients with AKI.

RESUMO

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathologic features and grading of adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of the breast. Methods: Sixteen cases of ACC of the breast were analyzed and graded according to the previous report. Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was used to detect the immunophenotype, Ki-67 proliferative index and expression of EZH2, and the association with tumor grade and outcome was analyzed. Results: Of the 16 cases, 11 were grade Ⅰ, with the epithelial and myoepithelial cells being arranged into tubular and cribriform structure with no solid component; three were grade Ⅱ, which were composed of mixed tubular, cribriform and solid component (<30%); and two were grade Ⅲ, which showed mainly solid component (>90%) and the tumor cells showed basaloid features with scanty cytoplasm and hyperchromatic nuclei, and mitotic count was>5/10 HPF. Immunophenotypically, the epithelial cells expressed CK7, CK8/18 and CD117; the myoepithelial cells expressed p63 and CK5/6; while the basaloid cells were positive for CK5/6 and CD117.Tubular and cibriform ACC showed low Ki-67 and EZH2 expression, while the two cases of solid variant with basaloid features showed high level of Ki-67 and EZH2 expression. Follow-up data were available in 13 cases with a median follow-up period of 42 months. Lung metastasis occurred after 12 months in one grade Ⅱ case and the patient died of disease after 34 months. Vertebral metastasis occurred after 12 months in one grade Ⅲ case and axillary lymph node metastasis occurred in another grade Ⅲ case. All other patients were free of disease at the end of the follow-up periods. Conclusions: ACC shows morphologic spectrum varying from low to high grade, the latter can may give rise to local and distant metastasis. ACC should not be regarded simply as low malignant potential, and should be graded for optimal treatment.

RESUMO

Objective: To study the therapy of cordyceps-astragalus-salvia miltiorrhiza in treating acute lung injury and pulmonary interstitial fibrosis induced by paraquat poisoning. Methods: All 120 adult Wister male rats were randomly assigned to three groups, the paraquat poisoning group (rats were intragastric administration paraquat 50 mg/kg body weight once at the beginning) , the cordyceps-astragalus-salvia miltiorrhiza therapy group (rats were given cordyceps-astragalus-salvia miltiorrhiza 90 mg/kg body weight intragastric administration half an hour after paraquat was given, then the same dose was given once a day) ; control group (rats were intragastric administration with physiological saline) . At 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th day rats were sacrificed postanesthetic respectively after paraquat exposure, sample of lung tissue, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) , and venous blood were collected. GSH, SOD, TNF-α, TGF-ß1, and HYP in plasma, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) , and the lung homogenates were determined. Optical microscope was performed to examine pathological changes in lung. Results: Each experimental time point paraquat group and the treatment group rats serum SOD content significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05) . Each experimental time point the treatment group rats serum SOD levels increased significantly than that of paraquat group (P<0.05) . Each experimental time point paraquat group rats serum GSH content significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05) . Treatment group rats 7 days time GSH content significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05) . Treatment group 21 days, 28 days GSH content was increased significantly than that of the paraquat group (P<0.05) . Each experimental time point paraquat group rats alveolar lavage SOD content was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05) . Treatment group 7 days, 14 days time SOD content was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05) , Treatment group 21 days, 28 days SOD content was increased significantly than that of the paraquat group (P<0.05) . Each experimental time point paraquat group and the treatment group rats alveolar lavage GSH content significantly were lower than that of the control group (P<0.05) . Treatment group days 14 and 21 days, 28 days GSH content was increased significantly than that of the paraquat group (P<0.05) . Each experimental time point paraquat group rats alveolar lavage TNF α levels was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05) . Treatment group 7 days, 14 days the rat alveolar lavage TNF α levels was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05) . Treatment group 21 days, 28 days TNF α content significantly was decreased than that of paraquat group (P<0.05) . Paraquat group days 14 and 21 days, 28 days HYP content was significantly higher than that of control group (P<0.05) . Treatment group 21 days HYP content was significantly higher than that of control group (P<0.05) . Treatment group 28 days time HYP content in lung tissue of rats was significantly decreased than that of the paraquat group (P<0.05) . Each experimental time point paraquat group rat lung tissue (tissue homogenate) TGF-ß1 content was higher than that of the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05) . Under optical microscope, the tissue damage of lung was aggravated, and reduced after cordyceps-astragalus-salvia miltiorrhiza was administrated.

RESUMO

Scaling and root planing are widely considered as effective methods for treating chronic periodontitis. A meta-analysis published in 2008 showed no statistically significant differences between full-mouth disinfection (FMD) or full-mouth scaling and root planing (FMS) and quadrant scaling and root planing (Q-SRP). The FMD approach only resulted in modest additional improvements in several indices. Whether differences exist between these two approaches requires further validation. Accordingly, a study was conducted to further validate whether FMD with antiseptics or FMS without the use of antiseptics within 24 h provides greater clinical improvement than Q-SRP in patients with chronic periodontitis. Medline (via OVID), EMBASE (via OVID), PubMed and CENTRAL databases were searched up to 27 January 2015. Randomized controlled trials comparing FMD or FMS with Q-SRP after at least 3 mo were included. Meta-analysis was performed to obtain the weighted mean difference (WMD), together with the corresponding 95% confidence intervals. Thirteen articles were included in the meta-analysis. The WMD of probing pocket depth reduction was 0.25 mm (p < 0.05) for FMD vs. Q-SRP in single-rooted teeth with moderate pockets, and clinical attachment level gain in single- and multirooted teeth with moderate pockets was 0.33 mm (p < 0.05) for FMD vs. Q-SRP. Except for those, no statistically significant differences were found in the other subanalyses of FMD vs. Q-SRP, FMS vs. Q-SRP and FMD vs. FMS. Therefore, the meta-analysis results showed that FMD was better than Q-SRP for achieving probing pocket depth reduction and clinical attachment level gain in moderate pockets. Additionally, regardless of the treatment, no serious complications were observed. FMD, FMS and Q-SRP are all effective for the treatment of adult chronic periodontitis, and they do not lead to any obvious discomfort among patients. Moreover, FMD had modest additional clinical benefits over Q-SRP, so we prefer to recommend FMD as the first choice for the treatment of adult chronic periodontitis.

RESUMO

The complete chloroplast genome (cpDNA) sequences of two cultivated species of Morus L. (Morus atropurpurea and Morus multicaulis) are reported and reconstructed in this study, and were compared with that of wild Morus mongolica. In M. atropurpurea, the circular genome is 159,113 bp in size and comprises two identical inverted repeat (IR) regions of 25,707 bp each, separated by a large single-copy (LSC) region of 87,824 bp and a small single-copy (SSC) region of 19,875 bp. The cpDNA sequence of M. multicaulis is longer than that of M. atropurpurea (159,154 bp), and consists of two IRs (25,678 bp), a LSC region (87,763 bp), and a SSC region (20,035 bp). Each cpDNA contains 112 unique genes including 78 protein-coding genes, 30 transfer RNA genes, and 4 ribosomal RNA genes, with a GC content of 36.2%. There were 83 simple sequence repeats (SSRs) with mononucleotides being the most common (60) and di-, tri-, tetra-, and hexanucleotides appearing less frequently in M. atropurpurea. M. multicaulis contains 81 SSRs containing 63 mononucleotide repeats. The genes and SSRs identified in this study may enhance understanding of cpDNA evolution at both intra- and interspecific levels. MEGA 6.0 was used to construct a phylogenetic tree of 27 species, which revealed that M. atropurpurea and M. multicaulis are more related to their congeners than to others. The cpDNA of M. atropurpurea and M. multicaulis and its structural analysis are important for the chloroplast genome project, development of molecular markers for Morus species, and breeding of varieties.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To compare total percutaneous access using preclose technique with femoral artery cut-down in endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) and assess the safety and feasibility of preclose technique. METHODS: In the study, 81 cases undergoing EVAR from Dec. 2011 to Nov. 2014 in Peking University People's Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Preoperative CT angiography (CTA) showed presence of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm or descending aortic aneurysm in all the cases. The maximum diameter of aneurysm >4.5 cm met the indications for surgical treatment. The conditions of bilateral femoral artery and iliac artery CTA showed were good, and there was no moderate or severe stenosis, nor was there any severe calcification in anterior wall of femoral artery. Not only were the cases fit for percutaneous endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (PEVAR), but also feasible with open endovascular aneurysm repair (OEVAR). According to the intention of the patients about the surgical incision, the cases were divided into group PEVAR and group OEVAR. The data of the general situation, operation time, blood loss, technical success rate, length of hospital stay after procedure and wound complications were analyzed statistically. RESULTS: In the study, 44 cases (78 incisions) were enrolled in group PEVAR and 37 cases (65 incisions) in group OEVAR. There was no significant difference between the two groups in age, gender, body mass index (BMI), accompanying diseases, average number of stents and outer diameter of stent delivery system. Average operation time of group PEVAR was less than that of group OEVAR [(119.1±102.0) min vs. (163.6±61.9) min, P=0.025]. The blood loss in group PEVAR was less than that in group OEVAR [(64.7±97.0) mL vs. (98.6±88.3) mL], but there was no significant difference (P=0.106). There was no difference in the technical success rate (94.9% vs.95.4%, P=1.000). The average length of hospital stay after procedure was significantly shorter in group PEVAR [(7.8±2.8) d vs.(12.3±7.2) d, P<0.001]. There were 2 cases with subcutaneous hematoma of wound in group PEVAR and 7 cases of wound complications that occurred in group OEVAR including 3 cases with lymphatic leakage, 3 cases with lower limb ischemia and 1 case with subcutaneous hematoma. The analysis showed that PEVAR could reduce the wound complications (2.6%vs.10.8%), but there was no significant difference between the two groups (P=0.079). CONCLUSION: Using preclose technique in EVAR is safe and effective. It can shorten the operation time and length of hospital stay after procedure.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS)in 259 professional automobile drivers, and to put forward targeted suggestions on protection. METHODS: In October 2014, 114 male bus drivers and 145 male taxi drivers in a transportation service company were enrolled as investigation group, and 121 non-operating male staff were enrolled as control group. Physical examination and a questionnaire survey were conducted for both groups, and the results were analyzed. RESULTS: The bus drivers and taxi drivers had significantly higher prevalence rates of MS than the nonoperating staff(17.5%/13.1% vs 3.3%, P<0.05). The results of univariate logistic analysis showed that smoking(OR=2.58, 95%CI 1.14~5.88), exercise (OR=0.21, 95% CI 0.10~0.43), meal time (OR=0.27, 95% CI 0.13~0.59), and a family history of chronic diseases (OR=2.26, 95% CI 1.13~4.50)were associated with MS, and each independent variable showed significant differences between groups (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that with age remaining the same, smoking was the risk factor for MS in professional automobile drivers (OR=5.25, 95%CI 2.00~13.80), and meal time (20~40 min)(OR= 0.20, 95%CI 0.09~0.44)and exercise (OR=0.13, 95% CI 0.06~0.30)were protective factors against MS. CONCLUSION: Professional automobile drivers have a higher prevalence rate of MS than non-operating staff, which should be taken seriously by working personnel.

RESUMO

Inducible T cell costimulator (ICOS) functions to regulate cell-cell signalling, immune responses and cell proliferation. ICOS single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) may affect protein expression and functions. This study investigated the association of ICOS SNPs with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and outcome in a Chinese population. A total of 1290 Chinese Han individuals were enrolled, including 63 asymptomatic HBV carriers, 220 chronic hepatitis B patients (CHB), 249 HBV-related liver cirrhosis patients (LC), 108 patients with HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), 338 patients with natural HBV clearance and 312 healthy subjects (as controls). DNA samples from these subjects were genotyped for four ICOS SNPs (rs11883722, rs10932029, rs1559931 and rs4675379) using TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assay and analysed. The data showed that genotype and allele frequencies of ICOS SNPs in cases and controls followed the Hardy-Weinberg distribution. The CC genotype of rs4675379 was higher in patients with HBV infection (including AC, CHB, LC and HCC) than in patients with HBV clearance (P = 0.006). Furthermore, the genotype 'GA' and the minor allele 'A' of rs1559931 were associated with a decreased HCC susceptibility (P < 0.001). Haplotype analysis data showed that 'GC' haplotype in block 2 (rs1559931 and rs4675379) had a lower frequency in patients than in HBV-cleared subjects (P = 0.034), although its overall frequency was only 1.6%. Our study found that ICOS rs1559931 SNP was associated with decreased HBV-related HCC risk in the studied Chinese Han population, except for patients with natural clearance of HBV.
