ABSTRACT

Objective To compare effectiveness between the modified and traditional pressure-overload myocardial hypertrophy(POMH) model by abdominal aorta coarctation (AAC) method. Methods Totally 45 rats were divided into three groups(n = 15 per group), sham group, traditional group, and modified group. In the traditional group, the diameter ol the abdominal aorta was narrowed to 0. 70 mm through a midline incision for 4 weeks; in the modified group, the diameter of the abdominal aorta was narrowed above the left kidney to 0. 45 mm for 1 week, and then the narrowing was lifted postoperatively. The cardiac index, heart weight (HW) /body weight (BW) and left ventricular index, left ventricular weight (LVW)/BW were measured from the heart specimens, and the cross-sectional area of cardiac myocytes, myocardial collagen area, and myocardial collagen area Iraction were measured in the pathological sections by HE staining and Masson staining. Results Compared with the sham group, the differences in end-systolic interventricular septum thickness (IVSs), left ventricular end-systolic posterior wall thickness (LVPWs), HW/BW, LVW/BW, cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area, myocardial collagen area, myocardial collagen area fraction, and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) expression levels were statistically significant (P0. 05). Conclusion The modified abdominal aortic constriction method used in this experiment is time-saving, stable, homogeneous and easy to replicate, and is a more ideal approach to establish a rat model of POMH.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To analyze the influence of chronic diseases on falls among middle-aged and older Chinese. Methods: Baseline data of 13 670 middle-aged and older adults recruited from China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) in 2011 were used and followed up to 2018, among those were 7 443 (54.45%) middle-aged people aged 45-59 and 6 227 (45.55%) older adults aged 60 and above. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the effects of different types, the number of chronic diseases and the interaction between chronic illness and other factors on the fall risk of middle-aged and older people. Results: After adjusting for confounding factors, respiratory diseases increased the risk of falls by 21% (HR=1.21, 95%CI:1.02-1.45), and arthritis increased the risk of falls by 27% (HR=1.27,95%CI: 1.12-1.43) in the group aged 45-59, kidney disease increased the risk of falls by 26% (HR=1.26, 95%CI: 1.03-1.53) in the group aged 60 and above. A linear dose-response relationship between the number of chronic diseases and fall risk (χ2=133.61, P<0.001) was found in all the age groups. The interaction between having chronic diseases and the factors of females (HR=1.64, 95%CI: 1.43-1.89), impaired activities of daily living (ADL) (HR=1.66, 95%CI: 1.39-1.99), and having a fall history (HR=2.58, 95%CI: 2.24-2.97) increased the risk of falls. Conclusions: There is a positive linear relationship between the number of chronic diseases and the fall risk among Chinese aged 45 and above. The female middle-aged and elderly patients with chronic diseases and the middle-aged and elderly patients with impaired ADL or a history of falls are the high-risk groups for falls that need to be focused on intervention. The window of fall injury prevention should be moved forward to the middle-aged stage in time.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To explore the effect of sleep duration on the risk of cognitive impairment in the elderly in China. Methods: Baseline data of 9 679 elderly individuals with intact cognition were collected from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS) in 2005, and followed up was conducted until 2018. Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the association between different sleep durations and the risk for cognitive impairment in the elderly. Results: Compared with elderly with sleep duration of 6 hours per day, those with sleep duration less than 5 hours had increased risk for cognitive impairment by 30% (HR=1.30, 95%CI: 1.05-1.62), and those with sleep durations of 7 hours, 8 hours and more than 9 hours had increased risk for cognitive impairment by 34% (HR=1.34,95%CI: 1.09-1.64), 40% (HR=1.40,95%CI: 1.17-1.69) and 43% (HR=1.43,95%CI: 1.19-1.70), respectively. Trend test showed that the risk of cognitive impairment increased with the extension of sleep duration (>6 h), and there was a dose-response relationship (P<0.001). However, self-rated sleep quality was not associated with the risk for cognitive impairment in the elderly. Conclusions: The shorter and longer sleep duration were associated an increased risk of cognitive impairment in the elderly aged ≥65 years in China, suggesting that optimizing sleep duration might delay the occurrence of cognitive impairment.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION@#There are limited studies exploring functional improvement in relation to characteristics of patients who, following acute hospital care, receive inpatient rehabilitation in community hospitals. We evaluated the association of acute hospital admission-related factors with functional improvement on community hospital discharge.@*METHODS@#We conducted a retrospective cohort study among patients who were transferred to community hospitals within 14-day post-discharge from acute hospital between 2016 and 2018. Modified Barthel Index (MBI) on a 100-point ordinal scale was used to assess functional status on admission to and discharge from the community hospital. We categorised MBI into 6 bands: 0-24, 25-49, 50-74, 75-90, 91-99 and 100. Multivariable logistic regression models were constructed to determine factors associated with categorical improvement in functional status, defined as an increase in at least one MBI band between admission and discharge.@*RESULTS@#A total of 5,641 patients (median age 77 years, interquartile range 69-84; 44.2% men) were included for analysis. After adjusting for potential confounders, factors associated with functional improvement were younger age, a higher MBI on admission, and musculoskeletal diagnosis for the acute hospital admission episode. In contrast, a history of dementia or stroke; lower estimated glomerular filtration rate; abnormal serum albumin or anaemia measured during the acute hospital episode; and diagnoses of stroke, cardiac disease, malignancy, falls or pneumonia; and other chronic respiratory diseases were associated with lower odds of functional improvement.@*CONCLUSION@#Clinicians may want to take into account the presence of these high-risk factors in their patients when planning rehabilitation programmes, in order to maximise the likelihood of functional improvement.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Manno-oligosaccharides (MOS) is known as a kind of prebiotics. Mannanase plays a key role for the degradation of mannan to produce MOS. In this study, the mannanases of glycoside hydrolase (GH) families 5 Man5HJ14 and GH26 ManAJB13 were employed to prepare MOS from locust bean gum (LBG) and palm kernel cake (PKC). The prebiotic activity and utilization of MOS were assessed in vitro using the probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum strain. RESULTS: Galactomannan from LBG was converted to MOS ranging in size from mannose up to mannoheptose by Man5HJ14 and ManAJB13. Mannoheptose was got from the hydrolysates produced by Man5HJ14, which mannohexaose was obtained from LBG hydrolyzed by ManAJB13. However, the same components of MOS ranging in size from mannose up to mannotetrose were observed between PKC hydrolyzed by the mannanases mentioned above. MOS stability was not affected by high-temperature and high-pressure condition at their natural pH. Based on in vitro growth study, all MOS from LBG and PKC was effective in promoting the growth of L. plantarum CICC 24202, with the strain preferring to use mannose to mannotriose, rather than above mannotetrose. CONCLUSIONS: The effect of mannanases and mannan difference on MOS composition was studied. All of MOS hydrolysates showed the stability in adversity condition and prebiotic activity of L. plantarum, which would have potential application in the biotechnological applications.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the therapeutic effect of spleen low molecular weight extracts on epileptics hydrochloride-induced leukopenia in mice and explore its mechanism.@*METHODS@#The model of leukopenia in mice was established by the injection of epirubicin hydrochloride (10 mg/kg). After the injection of chemotherapeutic drugs, leukocytopenia mice were treated with different doses of spleen low molecular weight extract, Ganoderma oral solution and recombinant granulocyte colony stimulating factor (rhG-CSF). The general survival status indicators such as body weight, coat color and athletic ability of mice in each group were recorded; the tail vein blood of mice in each group was collected and the white blood cell count in them was calculated; bone marrow of mice was taken and bone marrow smears were observed.@*RESULTS@#In the model group, the weight of the mice gradually decreased in the later period, their coat became dark and rough, and the ability to exercise decreased, while the mice in the treatment groups showed different degrees of improvement in their survival status except for the mice treated by rhG-CSF. There was no significant fluctuation in the white blood cell count of the blank control mice. After injection of epirubicin, the white blood cell count of peripheral blood in the model mice and treated mice were decreased. The white blood cell count was lower in the mice treated with high-dose low molecular weight extract and rhG-CSF than that in other experimental groups. Bone marrow smear showed that the proportion of bone marrow nucleated cells in the mice treated with the low molecular weight extract of the spleen was significantly higher than that of model mice (P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#The low molecular weight spleen extracts can significantly improve the hematopoietic state of mouse bone marrow, promote the proliferation of inhibited bone marrow cells, and thus has the effect of treating leukopenia in mice.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the efficacy of different unipolar electrocoagulation power on pathological injury of porcine kidney suffering suture-free partial nephrectomy (SFPN).Methods:From April 2018 to July 2018, nine Guizhou pigs were selected, with an average age of 3 years and an average weight of 48 kg. According to different hemostatic power of unipolar electrocoagulation during open partial nephrectomy, they were divided into three groups(60W group, 80W group, and 100W group), with 3 in each group. The left kidney was exposed with a surgical incision, parallel to the lumbosacral muscle.The left renal artery was clamped and about 2 cm renal tissue was excised at the middle pole of the left kidney. 60W, 80W and 100W were used by unipolar electrocoagulation for hemostasis until no bleeding occurred after the artery clamp was released. The total ischemia time was controlled within 20 min. Temperature was measured by a multi-channel thermometer probe which was inserted into the healthy kidney tissue at a distance of 2 mm, 5 mm, and 10 mm away from the unipolar electrocoagulation hook, and the upper pole of the kidney far away from the operation area. The time of operation, the volume of renal bleeding, the time of hemostasis and the temperature were recorded. On the 7th day after operation, the left kidneys were taken and the pathological changes were observed by toluidine blue staining.Results:All operations were completed safely and successfully. The operation time in 60W group, 80W group, and 100W group was (41.2±5.5)min, (35.1±3.7)min, (31.3±2.2)min , respectively. There was no significant difference of operation time among those group ( P>0.05). The blood loss of renal was (35.3±4.1)ml, (21.4±4.7)ml, (15.3±4.1)ml, respectively. The blood loss in the 100W group and 80W group was less than that in the 60W group ( P<0.05). And the blood loss in the 100W group was less than that in the 80W group ( P<0.05). The hemostasis time was (15.2±1.9)min, (10.1±1.4)min, (6.4±0.8)min. The hemostasis time in the 100W and 80W groups was less than that in the 60W group ( P<0.05). And the hemostasis time in the 100W group was less than that in the 80W group ( P<0.05). At the place of 10 mm away from the electrocoagulation hook, the temperature in the three groups were (33.1±1.1)℃, (34.0±1.0)℃, (34.3±0.6)℃, which was not significantly different from that of the respective upper poles. And there was no significant difference between the three groups( P>0.05). At the place of 5 mm and 2 mm away from the electrocoagulation hook, the temperature in the 100W group (41.7±1.3)℃, (61.4±6.4)℃ and the 80W group (38.6±2.4)℃, (50.3±6.0)℃ was higher than that in the 60W group (36.9±4.1)℃, (42.0±4.7)℃, and the temperature in 100W group is higher than that in 80W group ( P<0.05). When the power was 60W, 80W or 100W, the temperature in the place 10 mm away from the electrocoagulation hook was less than that in the place 5 mm away from the electrocoagulation hook ( P<0.05), and the temperature of the place 5 mm away from the electrocoagulation hook was lower than that of the place 2 mm away from the electrocoagulation hook ( P<0.05). The total pathological injury depth of wounds in 60W, 80W, 100W group was (7 323±50)μm, (8 119±100)μm, (8 896±40)μm, respectively. The depth in 100W group and 80W group was deeper than that in 60W group ( P<0.05), and the depth in 100W group was deeper than that in 80W group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:In SFPN, the hemostatic effect of three different monopolar electrocoagulation output power is satisfactory. With the increase of power, the hemostasis speed is faster. However, the temperature of surrounding healthy renal tissue would be higher, and the total pathological injury depth would be deeper.

ABSTRACT

Breast milk is the preferred food for preterm infants. In recent years, the role of breast milk in the brain development of preterm infants has attracted more and more attention. Studies have shown that the effect of breastfeeding on neurodevelopment and long-term cognitive outcome of preterm infants may persist into childhood, adolescence, and even adulthood. The nutrients in breast milk, such as oligosaccharides, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and lactoferrin, play an important role in this process. This article reviews the latest research advances in the role of breast milk nutrients in the brain development of preterm infants and elaborates on the concept and function of each nutrient.

ABSTRACT

@# Objective To estimate the association between the risk of high birth weight(HBW) and maternal environmental and behavioral factors exposure during pregnancy in rural areas. Methods Data were collected from the surveillance system of birth population and adverse pregnancy outcome in Pingding County, Shanxi Province during 2007 and 2012, where we followed up 204 controls with normal birth weight, 125 cases with HBW≥4 200 g and 171 cases with HBW 4 000-4 200 g. Case control study was performed to explore the potential risk factors of HBW. Results The total number of births was 18 749, including 1 177 cases of high birth weight, with an incidence rate of 6.28% between 2007 and 2012. Concerning the case control study on HBW<4 200 g, after adjusting parental reproductive age and parity, the risk of HBW was 3.10(95% CI:1.67-5.76)times higher among women with gestational weeks ≥42 than that of women with gestational weeks < 42. The risk of HBW in boys was 2.30(95% CI:1.46-3.63)times higher than that in girls. No significant association was observed between maternal BMI before pregnancy and the risk of HBW;Regarding the case control study on HBW≥4200 g, after adjusting maternal reproductive age and parity, the risk of HBW was 3.01(95% CI:1.49-6.08) times higher among women with gestational weeks≥42 than that of those with gestational weeks <42. The risk of HBW was 1.91(95% CI:1.15-3.16)times higher among women with pre-pregnancy BMI≥24 than that of those with pre-pregnancy BMI< 24. The risk of HBW was 2.59(95% CI:1.06-6.32)times higher in women who ate soybean products ≥4 times a week than that of those who ate soybean products less than once a week. Conclusion It would be of public health significance to reduce the risk of high birth weight, which can be reduced by managing pre-pregnancy BMI, diet during pregnancy and controlling gestational week.

ABSTRACT

Three different beta-glycosidase sequences of Ttebgl3, Tpebgl1 and Tpengl3 from Thermotoga thermarum DSM 5069 and Thermotoga petrophila RKU-1 were analyzed. Also, the influence of temperature, pH, concentration of DMSO, metal ions and kinetic constant on catalytic conversion of baicalin had been compared. The results indicated that the optimal pH and optimum temperature for transformation of baicalin was 4.5 85 °C, 5.0 80 °C and 5.5 80 °C, respectively. The family GH3 beta-glycosidase Ttebgl3 and Tpebgl3 had the better DMSO tolerance. The activation effect of the metal ions on the catalytic conversion of baicalin was not obvious, and the inhibition of the GH3 family beta glucosidase was significantly stronger than that of the GH1 family. The kinetic constants of three different beta-glucosidases catalyzed baicalin were significantly different. The Km and Vmax values of Tpebgl1, Tpebgl3 and Ttebgl3 were 0.029 2 mmol·L⁻¹ 4.85 U·mg⁻¹, 0.268 6 mmol·L⁻¹ 121.04 U·mg⁻¹ and 0.391 8 mmol·L⁻¹ 308.90 U·mg⁻¹, respectively. Family GH3 beta-glycosidase converted more baicalin than family GH1 with the optimal conditions, 0.02 g baicalin, and the conversion rate was 68%, 97.3%, 97.31% respectively. The results of the study provided a guarantee for the transformation of baicalin.

ABSTRACT

Objectives: To explore the clinical experience for a bridge therapy of percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty (PBAV) in treating the patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS). Methods: A total of 37 patients with severe AS who were not suitable for surgical valvular replacement received PBAV in our hospital from 2011-03 to 2017-03 were retrospectively studied. The patient's mean age was (74±12) years, their clinical and anatomical features, efficacy and safety of operation were observed and the outcomes were evaluated by follow-up study. Results: Patients presented the high surgical risk and worse cardiac function, 50% of them had bicuspid leaflet morphology with severe calcification [HU850=(856.0±658.2) mm3]. Balloon size was chosen by the intra-operative supra-annular diameters; at 7 days after operation, aortic valve orifice area (AVOA) was increased from (0.37±0.10) cm2to (0.87±1.10) cm2, the mean trans-aortic valve gradient pressure decreased form (55.1±22.9) mmHg to (44.8±17.8) mmHg, P<0.001 and LVEF elevated form(35.8±14.3)% to(41.0±12.2)%,P<0.001.There were 4 patients died in hospital,1 received permanent pacemaker and 1 developed severe aortic valve regurgitation. The patients were followed-up for (16.5±11.1)months after operation, 13/37 (35.1%) patients were in transition to surgical or transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Conclusions: PBAV may have good early clinical efficacy in severe AS patients who were not suitable for surgical valvular replacement and TAVR; PBAV could be expected to become a bridge therapy, smaller supra-annular diameter was safe and effective for patients having bicuspid leaflet with severe calcification.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>Background</b>Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a life-threatening clinical syndrome. Central nervous system (CNS) involvement is a severe complication, which can lead to rapid disease development and higher morality. However, this has not been given enough attention in adult HLH. Therefore, we carried out this study to analyze the clinical features, laboratory findings, treatment outcomes, and other characteristics of adult HLH with CNS involvement.</p><p><b>Methods</b>A retrospective analysis of 96 adult patients with HLH combined with CNS involvement between June 2003 and December 2016 was conducted. Clinical features, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) features, image changes, and therapeutic outcomes were analyzed.</p><p><b>Results</b>Among the 96 patients, 86 had various CNS symptoms and 33 (38.4%) had already presented symptoms before the HLH diagnosis was confirmed. A total of 59 patients received CSF examinations and showed abnormalities in 23 patients (39.0%). Seventy patients received imaging examinations and the results showed fifty patients with imaging changes (71.4%). Fifty-seven patients received multiple rounds of repeated intrathecal injection therapy and 35 patients improved (61.4%). As for the multiple analyses of effective factors on survival time, the results showed that the effects of combined Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection (P = 0.026, Exp(B) = 2.309, 95% confidence interval [CI] [1.108, 4.823) and intrathecal injection therapy (P = 0.013, Exp(B) = 0.422, 95% CI [0.214, 0.831]) on the survival time of the CNS-HLH patients were significant.</p><p><b>Conclusions</b>Complication with EBV infection is a risk factor, and intrathecal injection is a protective factor. CNS involvement in HLH is not rare, which can result in a poor prognosis. Multiple rounds of repeated intrathecal injection therapy can improve the prognosis of CNS-HLH patients.</p>

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: c-Met and its ligand, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), play a critical role in oncogenesis and metastatic progression. The aim of this study was to identify inhibited enzymogram and to test the antitumor activity of SIM-89 (a c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor) in non-small cell lung cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Z′-LYTE kinase assay was employed to screen the kinase enzymogram, and mechanism of action (MOA) analysis was used to identify the inhibited kinases. Cell proliferation was then analyzed by CCK8 assay, and cell migration was determined by transwell assay. The gene expression and the phosphorylation of c-Met were examined by realtime-PCR and western blotting, respectively. Finally, the secretion of HGF was detected by ELISA assay. RESULTS: c-Met, activated protein kinase (AMPK), and tyrosine kinase A (TRKA) were inhibited by SIM-89 with the IC₅₀ values of 297 nmol/L, 1.31 µmol/L, and 150.2 nmol/L, respectively. SIM-89 exerted adenosine triphosphate (ATP) competitive inhibition on c-Met. Moreover, the expressions of STAT1, JAK1, and c-Met in H460 cells were decreased by SIM-89 treatment, and c-Met phosphorylation was suppressed in A549, H441, H1299, and B16F10 cells by the treatment. In addition, SIM-89 treatment significantly decreased the level of HGF, which accounted for the activation of c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase. Finally, we showed cell proliferation inhibition and cell migration suppression in H460 and H1299 cells after SIM-89 treatment. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, SIM-89 inhibits tumor cell proliferation, migration and HGF autocrine, suggesting it's potential antitumor activity.

Conclusion The activa-tion of both vastus medialis and vastus lateralis during stair descent is significantly higher than that of rectus femoris. The coactivation of vastus medialis and vastus lateralis is equal in healthy youth.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the choroidal thickness (CT) in patient (> 50 years old) with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC) compared to age-matched healthy controls.Methods Together 25 (> 50 years old) patients with CSC from January 2016 to January 2017 were enrolled in these study.Of 25 patients,20 patients were affected unilaterally and 5 patients were affected bilaterally.These patients were divided into affected eye group (30 eyes) and unaffected fellow eye group (19 eyes).Addition 26 age-matched healthy subjects were recruited as control group (26 eyes).Enhanced depth imaging technique of optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) was used to measure the choriodial thickness at 5 sites,including subfovea and 500 μm,1500 μm temporal and nasal to the fovea.Results The mean age of patients with CSC was (60.08 ± 7.68) years.The subfoveal choroid thickness of both affected eye group and unaffected fellow eye group was significantly thicker than that of the control group [(414.17 ±85.88)pan vs.(352.89 ±97.22) μn vs.(280.69 ±90.99) pau] (both P <0.05).In the patients with monocular affected eyes,the subfoveal choroid thickness of the affected eyes was thicker than that of the fellow eyes [(414.07 ± 85.88) μm vs.(352.89 ± 97.22) μm] (P < 0.05).There were significant differences in choriodal thickness at other sites in the three groups (all P < O.05).Conclusion The choriodal thickness in patients with CSC at over 50 years of age is significantly thicker than that in the agematched healthy subjects,with subfoveal choroid thickness > 400 μm,which is helpful for the differential diagnosis of elderly patients with macular serous retinal detachment.

ABSTRACT

The reaction conditions of baicalin hydrolyzed into baicalein by a kind of thermophilic and sugar-tolerant beta-glucosidase were studied in this paper. The beta-glucosidase could catalyze baicalin into baicalein well in the acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer. The optimal enzyme activity was at 85 degrees C and pH 5.5. The enzyme was stable at the temperature less than 85 degrees C and pH range of 5-7.5. The maximum reaction rate V. and michaelis constant K. were 0.41 mmol x L(-1) x min(-1) and 3.31 mmol x L(-1) respectively. Different metal ions had different effects on the activity of enzyme. Na+ existing in acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer had an activation effect on enzyme. The enzyme activity was enhanced by the concentrations of glucose below 0.6 mol x L(-1), and was gradually inhibited when monosaccharide concentration was over 0.6 mol x L(-1). When the monosaccharide concentration reached 1.2 mol x L(-1), the inhibition rate of enzyme activity was about 50%, which showed good glucose tolerance. The good reaction conditions through the experiment have been determined as follows, the substrate: enzyme dose was 1 g: 0.2 mL, acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer pH 5.5, reaction temperature 85 degrees C, reaction time 10 h, and the enzymatic hydrolyzation ratio could reach 97%.
