ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:Tyrosine kinase inhibitors,as well as other types of small-molecule cancer drugs,can cause severe cardiotoxicity. OBJECTIVE:To perform a heart safety re-evaluation by observing the effects of antitumor drugs on isolated heart electrocardiograph,cardiac action potential and associated ion channels and cytotoxicity. METHODS:Extracorporeal cardiac perfusion was given to the isolated rabbit heart using Langendorff perfusion:Sunitinib(0.3,3,10 μmol/L),Crizotinib(0.3,1,3 μmol/L),and Doxorubicin(1,30 μmol/L)were perfused sequentially for 120 minutes to record electrocardiograph and left ventricular pressure.A blank control group was set for comparison.Manual patch clamp was used to record the effects of Crizotinib,Sunitinib,Doxorubicin on hERG,Cav1.2,Nav1.5 channel currents and action potential in human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes.Adenosine triphosphate level in human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes was detected by CellTiter-Glo luminescent cell viability assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Isolated rabbit heart using Langendorff perfusion:Compared with the blank ontrol group,Sunitinib and Crizotinib at≥3 μmol/L decreased heart rate(P<0.01)and prolonged QT/QTc interval(P<0.01),and reduced left ventricular pressure to different extents.Manual patch clamp recording:Compared with the blank control group,Sunitinib and Crizotinib at 3 μmol/L inhibited the activities of hERG,Nav1.5 and Cav1.2 channels and significantly prolonged the duration of action potential(P<0.01).According to the analysis of the test article,the difference between the labeled concentration and the measured concentration of the recovered solution was not significant.Cell viability assays:Compared with the blank control group,adenosine triphosphate content in human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes significantly decreased after treatment with Sunitinib(IC50=4.64 μmol/L),Doxorubicin(IC50=4.21 μmol/L)and Crizotinib(IC50=2.87 μmol/L),indicating that cell viability significantly decreased(P<0.01).To conclude,this study successfully established an early cardiac safety evaluation method for antitumor drugs,which provides good support and help for the subsequent development of antitumor drugs.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To predict the molecular mechanism of Biminkang Granules in the treatment of allergic rhinitis using network pharmacological methods combined with animal experiments.Methods:Active component targets and allergic rhinitis targets were screened from TCMSP, OMIM, GeneCards, TTD, DrugBank and PharmGKB databases; R language software was used to map the intersection of drug and disease targets; Cytoscape software and String platform were used to construct intersection target PPI network and conduct network topology analysis; DAVID platform was used to perform GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analysis, and perform molecular docking verification on the main active components and key targets. 32 rats were divided into a blank group of 8 and a model group of 24 using a random number table method. Model rats were induced by ovalbumin to establish an allergic rhinitis model. 24 SD rats that were successfully modeled and were randomly divided into model group, Western medicine group, and Biminkang Granules group using a random number table method, with 8 rats in each group. The Western medicine group was gavaged with 1 mg/kg of loratadine solution, the Biminkang Granules group was gavaged with 4.1 g/kg of Biminkang Granules solution, and the blank group and model group rats were gavaged with the same volume of physiological saline once a day for 2 consecutive weeks. The symptoms of rhinitis in each group of rats for 30 minutes were observed and recorded, and the pathological changes of the rat nasal mucosa were observed using HE staining. ELISA method was used to detect the levels of IL-17 and IL-6 in rat serum, and Western blot method was used to determine the expressions of TNF and STAT3 proteins in rat tissues.Results:A total of 41 target proteins of BiMinKang Dranule in the treatment of allergic rhinitis were predicted, and TNF, STAT3 and other core target proteins were obtained by PPI network topology analysis. The biological process of GO involved drug response, inflammatory response, cytokine response, etc.KEGG enrichment is involved in Th17 cell differentiation, lipid and atherosclerosis, IL-17, toll-like receptor and other pathways. Molecular docking results indicated that the main active components had good binding activity to key target proteins.Animal experiments showed that BiMinKang Dranule could improve the inflammatory symptoms of allergic rhinitis rats, down-regulate the expression of IL-17 and IL-6 in blood, and inhibit the expression of TNF and STAT3 proteins.Conclusion:Biminkang Granules can treat allergic rhinitis through multiple active components, multiple target proteins and multiple pathways, and the mechanism may be related to the regulation of Th17 cell differentiation pathway related proteins.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To correctly identify the blood group of ABO and study its molecular biological characteristics. 【Methods】 Blood samples from blood donors with discrepancies in forward and reverse typing using the microplate method were subjected to both saline tube agglutination test for serological identification and polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primers (PCR-SSP) for genotyping. Additionally, direct sequencing of exons 1 to 7 of the ABO gene was performed on some donor samples to analyze their blood phenotype, genotype and gene sequence. 【Results】 For 256 samples showing discrepancy between forward and reverse typing in microwell method, 119 were identified as normal ABO blood types, 90 were weakened ABO antibodies and 47 were ABO subtypes by serology tube test. According to the PCR-SSP genotyping test, 233 of 256 (91.02%) were consistent with serological phenotype and genotype, 17 of 256 (6.64%) were inconsistent, and 6 samples can′t read genotype based on the kit result typing table.A total of 17 genotypes were identified in 250 samples as AO1 in 56, AO2 in 58, AA in 50, BO1 in 31, BO2 in 17, BB in 8, O1O1 in 2, O1O2 in 7, AB in 13, AO4 in 1, A205O2 in 1, A205A in 1, A201A in 1, O1O4 in 1, O2O2 in 1, A201B in 1 and A205B in 1. Sequencing of exons 1 to 7 of the ABO gene was carried out in 78 samples, and 29 ABO alleles were detected, seven of which were common alleles (*A101, *A102, *A104, *B101, *O01, *O02, *O04), 22 of which were rare alleles (*A201, *A205, *Ax01, *Ax03, *Ax13, *Ax19, *Ax22, *Ael10, *B305, *Bel03, *Bel06/*Bx02, *Bw07, *Bw12, *Bw17, *Bw37, *O05, *O26, *O61, *B(A)04, *B(A)07, *cisAB01 and *cisAB01var). In addition, six rare allele mutation sites were identified (c.101A>G; c. 103_106delG; c. 146_147insGC; c. 259G>T; c. 322C>T; c. 932T>C). 【Conclusion】 The identification of ambiguous ABO blood group requires the combination of serological testing and molecular biological examination to correctly identify the blood type and ensure the safety of clinical blood transfusion.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND@#Cholecystectomy is a standard surgery for patients suffering from gallbladder diseases, while the causal effects of cholecystectomy on colorectal cancer (CRC) and other complications are still unknown.@*METHODS@#We obtained genetic variants associated with cholecystectomy at a genome-wide significant level ( P value <5 × 10 -8 ) as instrumental variables (IVs) and performed Mendelian randomization (MR) to identify the complications of cholecystectomy. Furthermore, the cholelithiasis was also treated as the exposure to compare its causal effects to those of cholecystectomy, and multivariable MR analysis was carried out to judge whether the effect of cholecystectomy was independent of cholelithiasis. The study was reported based on Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology Using Mendelian Randomization guidelines.@*RESULTS@#The selected IVs explained 1.76% variance of cholecystectomy. Our MR analysis suggested that cholecystectomy cannot elevate the risk of CRC (odds ratio [OR] =1.543, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.607-3.924). Also, it was not significant in either colon or rectum cancer. Intriguingly, cholecystectomy might decrease the risk of Crohn's disease (OR = 0.078, 95% CI: 0.016-0.368) and coronary heart disease (OR = 0.352, 95% CI: 0.164-0.756). However, it might increase the risk of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) (OR = 7.573, 95% CI: 1.096-52.318). Cholelithiasis could increase the risk of CRC in the largest population (OR = 1.041, 95% CI: 1.010-1.073). The multivariable MR analysis suggested that genetic liability to cholelithiasis could increase the risk of CRC in the largest population (OR = 1.061, 95% CI: 1.002-1.125) after adjustment of cholecystectomy.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The study indicated that cholecystectomy might not increase the risk of CRC, but such a conclusion needs further proving by clinical equivalence. Additionally, it might increase the risk of IBS, which should be paid attention to in clinical practice.

Blood donors of rare blood groups should be informed and recruited to the team of rare blood donors.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the current status of knowledge, attitude and practice of nurses in mental health hospitals on the prevention and control of nosocomial infections, and to analyze the influencing factors. MethodsFrom June to August 2020, 402 clinical nurses from 8 mental health hospitals in a city were enrolled using simple random sampling method, and were assessed using a self-compiled knowledge-attitude-practice questionnaire related to the nosocomial infection prevention and control, thereafter, the influencing factors were screened. ResultsThe scores of knowledge, attitude and practice dimensions in relation to the nosocomial infection prevention and control among the nurses were (8.43±1.84), (76.01±5.70) and (57.42±3.75), respectively. Univariate analysis showed that the knowledge dimension score demonstrated significant difference among nurses of different types of hospital, grades of hospital, professional titles, education levels, and emphasis degrees of hospital and individual on nosocomial infection (P<0.05 or 0.01). The attitude dimension scores yielded significant difference among nurses of different types of hospital, position, grades of hospital, and emphasis degrees of hospital and individual on nosocomial infection (P<0.05 or 0.01). The practice dimension scores manifested significant difference among nurses of different types of hospital, grades of hospital, professional titles, emphasis degrees of hospital and individual on nosocomial infection, and training frequency (P<0.05 or 0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that professional titles and individual emphasis on nosocomial infection entered the regression model of nurses' knowledge dimension of nosocomial infection prevention and control (P<0.05 or 0.01). Individual emphasis on nosocomial infection, hospital types and position entered the regression model of attitude dimension (P<0.05 or 0.01). Individual emphasis on nosocomial infection, hospital types, professional titles, and hospital emphasis on nosocomial infection entered the regression model of practice dimension (P<0.05 or 0.01). ConclusionNurses in mental health hospital have a positive attitude towards nosocomial infection prevention and control, but their knowledge base needs to be strengthened.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the value of D-dimer, carbohydrate antigen 199 (CA199) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 2 (IGFBP2) for postoperative monitoring and prediction of survival time in patients with resectable pancreatic cancer.Methods:The data of 119 patients with pancreatic cancer who were admitted to the First Hospital of Qinhuangdao from May 2010 to January 2014 were collected. Immunoturbidimetry was used to determine the level of D-dimer before surgery, at postoperative stable disease stage and disease progression stage; electrochemiluminescence was used to determine the level of CA199, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the serum IGFBP2 level. A total of 30 healthy people and 40 patients with pancreatic serous cystadenoma were treated as the controls. The correlations of the levels of preoperative D-dimer, CA199 and IGFBP2 with clinicopathological characteristics and survival time of patients with pancreatic cancer were analyzed.Results:The levels of preoperative D-dimer, CA199, IGFBP2 in patients with pancreatic cancer were higher than those in the both control group (all P < 0.01). The levels of serum D-dimer, CA199 and IGFBP2 after the progression of pancreatic cancer were higher than those at postoperative stable disease stage [1 496.0 ng/ml (590.0 ng/ml, 2 280.4 ng/ml) vs. 578.1 ng/ml (381.7 ng/ml, 671.5 ng/ml), 207.0 U/ml (54.5 U/ml, 736.5 U/ml) vs. 31.9 U/ml (14.1 U/ml, 44.0 U/ml), (435±107) ng/ml vs. (249±83) ng/ml, all P < 0.01]. There were no statistical differences in the proportion of pancreatic cancer patients stratified by different clinicopathological factors with the increased levels of D-dimer before operation (all P > 0.05). The proportion of the increased levels of CA199 and IGFBP2 in patients with lymph node metastasis was higher than that in patients without lymph node metastasis (both P < 0.05); there was no association of the increased levels of CA199 and IGFBP2 with other factors (all P > 0.05). The preoperative progression-free survival (PFS) time and overall survival (OS) time of pancreatic cancer patients with elevated D-dimer level was shorter than that for those with normal D-dimer level [(10.6±1.2) months vs. (20.4±2.4) months, (18.9±1.9) months vs. (29.2±2.6) months, both P < 0.01]. When the threshold value of CA199 was 37 U/ml, there was no correlation between CA199 and survival of pancreatic cancer patients (all P > 0.05); when the threshold value was 253.8 U/ml (median CA199 for the enrolled patients) and 1 000 U/ml, patients with elevated CA199 level had shorter OS time and PFS time compared with the patients with normal CA199 level [253.8 U/ml: (11.5±1.5) months vs. (21.0±2.6) months, (19.9±2.1) months vs. (29.0±2.7) months, both P < 0.01; 1 000 U/ml: (8.9±1.9) months vs. (19.1±1.9) months, (15.5±2.3) months vs. (28.0±2.0) months, both P < 0.01]. When the threshold value of IGFBP2 was 339.1 ng/ml, patients with elevated preoperative IGFBP2 level had shorter PFS time and OS time compared with the patients with normal IGFBP2 level [(10.8± 1.1) months vs. (21.1±2.6) months, (18.9±1.8) months vs. (30.3±2.8) months, both P < 0.01]. Cox multivariate analysis showed that preoperative D-dimer and IGFBP2 levels were independent factors affecting PFS and OS in patients with pancreatic cancer (D-dimer: HR = 0.561, 95% CI 0.336-0.936, P = 0.027; HR = 0.515, 95% CI 0.303-0.874, P = 0.014; IGFBP2: HR = 0.430, 95% CI 0.253-0.731, P = 0.002; HR = 0.361, 95% CI 0.202-0.644, P = 0.001). Conclusions:For patients with resectable pancreatic cancer, D-dimer, CA199 and IGFBP2 can be used for postoperative condition monitoring, and preoperative D-dimer and IGFBP2 can be used for survival time prediction.

Methods: The text of disease diagnosis and syndrome differentiation of menstrual-cycle-linked disorders from Guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of common disease of gynecology in Traditional Chinese Medicine was analyzed, and the symptoms related with viscera functions, the waxing and waning of qi and blood, and pathogenic properties were extracted. The questionnaires of diseases and syndrome elements differentiation of female by calculating the weight relationship between symptoms and health status were designed to estimate the interior state of waxing and waning of yin-yang by figuring out the different periods of menstrual, and in the last step, Constitution in Chinese medicine Questionnaire was used to identify the constitution. Through the above four identification methods, a comprehensive identification of the female's health status of TCM was formed. Results: Through the disease identification model, we distinguished the state of disease and yet disease. And through the syndrome elements differentiation model, we knew the viscera functions, the waxing and waning of qi-blood and yin-yang, and pathogenic properties. And by identifying the internal qi-blood and yin-yang status, we initially built the model that can identify health status of female integrally with the constitution. Conclusion:The model identification results can reflect the comprehensive health status of female in multiple dimensions. It can make a fine classification of women.s TCM health status. It can not only help to know the previous health status but also help to speculate the future health trend, which contributes to the formulation of personalized health interventions of follow-up.
ABSTRACT
Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is one of the most serious complications of end-stage liver disease. Type Ⅰ/Ⅱ HRS has a high short-term mortality rate and poor prognosis. The diagnostic criteria for HRS based on serum creatinine cannot keep up with the world, and early diagnosis is of great importance to the treatment and prognosis of HRS. This article introduces the value and clinical significance of seven biomarkers for renal injury in the early diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and prognostic evaluation of HRS. It is pointed out that neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, interleukin-18, and kidney injury molecule-1 may be the biomarkers for early identification of renal injury in patients with liver cirrhosis. A combination of multiple biological indicators, imaging examination, and interventional techniques might be a feasible method for early diagnosis of HRS in future.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the peripapillary choroidal thicknesses (pCT) and subfoveal choroidal thicknesses (SFCT) of nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). Methods Forty-four Chinese patients with unilateral NAION were recruited and compared with 60 eyes of 60 normal age and refractive-error matched control subjects. pCT and SFCT were measured by enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography. Choroidal thicknesses of eyes with NAION and unaffected fellow eyes were compared with normal controls. Choroidal thicknesses of NAION eyes with or without optic disc edema were also compared. The correlation between choroidal thickness and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness, logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), and the mean deviation (MD) of Humphrey static perimetry in NAION eyes were analyzed. Results The pCT at the nasal, nasal inferior and temporal inferior quadrants in NAION eyes with optic disc edema were significantly thicker than that of normal subjects (t=3.152, 3.166, 2.808; P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the choroidal thicknesses between the unaffected fellow eyes of NAION patients and normal eyes of healthy controls; or between the NAION eyes with resolved optic disc edema and normal eyes (P>0.05). No significant correlation between choroidal thickness (r=-0.220, -0.140, 0.110), SFCT (r=0.096, -0.148, -0.131) and logMAR BCVA, perimetry MD and RNFL was found in eyes affected by NAION (P>0.05). Conclusions The peripapillary choroidal thicknesses increase in some quadrants in NAION eyes with optic disc edema. However, the choroidal thickness of NAION eyes is the same in age and refractive error-matched normal subjects.
ABSTRACT
[Objective] To evaluate the effect of hydromorphone for postoperative analgesia on residual carbon dioxide during recovery after laparoscopic colorectal surgery.[Methods] A total of 100 patients performed with elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery were randomly allocated into two groups according to different patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) formula:Group H contained hydromorphone 8 mg and Group M contained morphine 40 mg.Total PCIA volume was 100 mL saline with loading volume 2 mL,background volume 2 mL/h,and lockout time was set on 15 min.Analgesia infusion pump was used in the two groups half an hour before the end of surgery.Surgery time,pneumoperitoneum time,anesthesia time,extubation time,recovery time and retention time in postanesthesia care unit (PACU) were rccordcd,rcspcctively.PaCO2,the pain Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score,Ramsay sedation score,at 30 min (T0) after pneumoperitoneum,extubation time (T1),30 min (T2),1 h (T3),2 h (T4),and 24 h (T5) after extubation,the times of PCA compressions were recorded.Anesthesia complications during waking-up period such as postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV),shoulder pain,hypersomnia,pruritus and satisfaction degree after surgery were also recorded.[Results] Compared with group H,PaCO2 was higher at T2 ~ T4 (P < 0.05);Recovery time,extubation time and the retention time in PACU were longer after surgery (P < 0.05);The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting,shoulder pain were higher in group M (P < 0.05).Compared with group M,VAS score at T1 ~ T3,and Ramsay sedation score T1 ~ T4 were decreased in group H (P < 0.05).[Conclusion] Compared with morphine,hydromorphone can increase fewer residual carbon dioxide during recovery and fewer side effects for the patients caused by that after laparoscopic colorectal surgery.Hydromorphone was a safer and more effective analgesic for postoperative analgesia than morphine.

Objective To explore the application value of interferon gamma release assay (IGRAs)in the clinical detection of tuberculosis infected T lymphocytes.Methods Used IGRAs method to detect the 11 968 outpatients and hospitalized pa-tients from 2013 to 2016 with tuberculosis screening.According to the distribution department analysis,also of positive case detection according to age and gender were analysis and comparison and analysis on the uncertainty of results,different methods were compared.Results Among the 11 968 cases,2 048 cases were positive,the positive rate was 17.11%,and the uncertain result was 107 cases,which accounted for 0.89% of the total number.The positive rates from 2013 to 2016 were 19.65%,21.35%,15.82% and 13.56%,respectively.In the detection and screening of pulmonary and pulmonary tuberculo-sis,the positive rates of the department of respiration,the digestive department,the oncology department,the department of neurology and the department of gynecology were 22.07%,20.27%,23.38%,12.84% and 11.86%,respectively.In the positive screening,men accounted for 62.11%,women accounted for 37.89%,men were significantly higher than women.By age group,was less than or equal to 15,16~25,26~45,46~65,was more than orequal to 66 years old,positive rate were 1.96%,18.51%,16.54%,21.25% and 25.73%,respectively.Analysis of uncertain outcome data,department of respira-tion,rheumatism,department of hematology,accounted for 1.99% and 2.35%,respectively.Compared with other laboratory methods,the IGRAs method had obvious advantages.Conclusion Tuberculosis occurs in various body organs,there were differences in gender and age of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection.IGRAs is a sensitive and specific method for rapid de-tection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection,although it can not be used as a diagnostic indicator,but in patients with suspected tuberculosis IGRAs has a larger clinical application value for the further diagnosis of disease.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of the single detection and combined detection of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) VCA-IgM ,aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) in EBV current infection .Methods The VCA-IgM positive simples tested by chemiluminescence from January to October 2016 were collected .EBV-DNA was detected by RT-PCR .AST and ALT were detected by using the enzyme rate method .Then samples were divided into the EBV-DNA positive group and EBV-DNA negative group .SPSS22 .0 was used for conducting the non-parametric test .Then each indicator was analyzed by the Logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve .Results The levels of VCA-IgM ,AST and ALT in the EBV-DNA positive group were higher than those in the EBV-DNA negative group ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) . VCA-IgM ,AST and ALT showed a correlation with EBV-DNA (P<0 .05) .The areas under curve (AUC) of VCA-IgM ,AST and ALT single indicator detection curve were 0 .803(95% CI:0 .735 -0 .872) ,0 .788(95% CI:0 .708 -0 .868) ,and 0 .752(95% CI:0 .671-0 .832) ,respectively ;AUC of 3-indicator combined detection were 0 .830(95% CI:0 .765 -0 .896) ,which was high than AUC of each single indicator detection .Conclusion Among the indicators in EBV current infection ,VCA-IgM is of great diagnostic value ,and is superior to AST or ALT .Furthermore ,the combined detection of these three indicators is better than single indicator detection ,which contributes to the diagnosis and prevention of EBV infection and other complicating infection .
