ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To study the effects of Ganbao capsules on intestinal mucosal barrier and gut microbiota in rats with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and to explore its mechanism of prevention and treatment of NAFLD. METHODS Eight of 26 SD rats were randomly selected as blank group and fed with ordinary diet, and the remaining 18 rats were fed with high diet to establish NAFLD model (2 for modeling inspection); after successful modeling, they were divided into model group and Ganbao group, with 8 rats in each group. Ganbao group were given Ganbao capsules solution (1 440 mg/kg) intragastrically, and the blank group and model group were given the constant volume of distilled water intragastrically, once a day, for consecutive 5 weeks. The contents of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and triglyceride (TG) in serum of rats were detected by automatic analyzer; the contents of lipopolysaccharide, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-1β in serum of rats were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The pathological morphology of liver and ileum tissues were observed by HE staining, the expressions of Occludin and zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) were detected by immunohistochemistry method, and the intestinal flora were detected by 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing technology. RESULTS Compared with the model group, the serum contents of ALT, AST, TG, lipopolysaccharide, TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in Ganbao group were decreased significantly (P<0.01), the pathological changes of liver and ileum tissues were improved 262 significantly, and the expressions of Occludin and ZO-1 were increased significantly (P<0.01). Intestinal microbiotaanalysis revealed that compared with the model group, Ganbao capsules could recover the abundance and diversity of the gut E-mail:hdf8833@126.com microbiota in rats. At the phylum level, Ganbao capsules could significantly increase the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes, and significantly reduce the relative abundance of Firmicutes and the ratio of Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes (P<0.01). At the genus level, Ganbao capsules could significantly increase the relative abundance of Lactobacillus, Blautia, Bacteroides and Akkermansia, and significantly reduce the relative abundance of Prevotella, Turicibacter, Weissella, SMB53 and Desulfovibrio (P<0.05 or P<0.01). There were different species among the gut microbiota of rats in each group. CONCLUSIONS Ganbao capsules may improve NAFLD by protecting intestinal mucosal barrier function and regulating gut probiotics/harmful bacteria structure.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of hyperuricemia (HUA) in non-dialysis diabetic nephropathy (DN) patients, and to observe the protective effect of febuxostat on kidney.Methods:The clinical data of 317 DN patients without dialysis in Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University from January 2018 to February 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. Among them, HUA occurred in 148 cases (HUA group), the incidence of HUA was 46.69%, and no HUA occurred in 169 cases (non-HUA group). In HUA group, 74 patients were treated with febuxostat (observation subgroup), and 74 patients with allopurinol (control subgroup). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the independent risk factors of HUA in patients with DN; a nomogram model for predicting the occurrence of HUA in patients with DN was established by R 4.0.2 software, the predictive ability of the nomogram model was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and the calibration and validity of the prediction model were verified by correction curve and deviation correction C-index.Results:There were no significant difference in gender composition and the incidence of diabetic retinopathy, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, diabetic foot between the two groups ( P>0.05); the age, body mass index (BMI), DN course>3 years rate, smoking rate, drinking rate, family history of diabetes rate, seafood consumption more than 2 times a week rate, and the incidences of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, coronary heart disease, nephrolithiasis, stroke in HUA group were significantly higher than those in non-HUA group: (57.96 ± 5.25) years old vs. (56.14 ± 4.71) years old, (24.18 ± 3.95) kg/m 2 vs. (23.06 ± 3.12) kg/m 2, 78.38% (116/148) vs. 30.77% (52/169), 84.46% (125/148) vs. 28.99% (49/169), 93.92% (139/148) vs. 40.24% (68/169), 62.84% (93/148) vs. 50.30% (85/169), 46.62% (69/148) vs. 15.38% (26/169), 41.89% (62/148) vs. 20.71% (35/169), 73.65% (109/148) vs. 45.56% (77/169), 39.86% (59/148) vs. 18.34% (31/169), 45.95% (68/148) vs. 26.04% (44/169) and 50.68% (75/148) vs. 8.28% (14/169), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01 or <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that age, BMI, course of DN, smoking, drinking, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, coronary heart disease, nephrolithiasis, stroke and weekly seafood consumption were independent risk factors for HUA in patients with DN ( OR = 1.053, 1.062, 3.192, 3.638, 5.397, 1.371, 1.690, 1.404, 1.392, 2.295 and 2.581; 95% CI 1.028 to 1.078, 1.031 to 1.093, 2.517 to 3.867, 2.754 to 4.522, 4.169 to 6.625, 1.253 to 1.489, 1.482 to 1.898, 1.237 to 1.571, 1.284 to 1.501, 1.730 to 2.860 and 1.862 to 3.300; P<0.01), but the family history of diabetes was not related to the occurrence of HUA in DN patients ( P>0.05). A nomogram model was established based on age, BMI, course of DN, smoking, drinking, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, coronary heart disease, nephrolithiasis, stroke and weekly seafood consumption as predictors of HUA in patients with DN; the results of correction curve analysis show that the actual curve was consistent with the ideal curve, and the prediction of HUA in patients with DN by the nomogram model was consistent with the actual situation (C-index was 0.931, 95% CI 0.895 to 0.967). The results of ROC curve analysis show that the nomogram model had a strong ability to predict the occurrence of HUA in patients with DN (the area under the curve was 0.855, 95% CI 0.842 to 0.868). The total effective rate in observation subgroup was significantly higher than that in control subgroup: 93.24% (69/74) vs. 70.27% (52/74), the levels of uric acid, creatinine and urea nitrogen after treatment were significantly lower than those in control subgroup: (314 ± 65) μmol/L vs. (392 ± 75) μmol/L, (227 ± 46) μmol/L vs. (271 ± 53) μmol/L and (13.52 ± 2.47) mmol/L vs. (16.80 ± 3.05) mmol/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The age, BMI, course of DN, smoking, drinking, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, coronary heart disease, nephrolithiasis, stroke and weekly seafood consumption are independent risk factors for HUA in patients with DN. Febuxostat can effectively protect the renal function of patients with DN complicated with HUA.

ABSTRACT

Objective To understand the clinical features and therapeutic methods for calcineurin inhibitor-induced pain syndrome (CIPS) in kidney transplant recipients. Methods The related articles or abstracts from January 1991 to December 2020 were obtained by searching PubMed, Google Scholar, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP databases. The reviews, duplicate literatures and the articles involved in non-kidney transplant recipients were excluded. 11 full papers were included with 15 case reports. Results The average age of patients at the time of diagnosis of CIPS was (44.6±8.31) years, and the 53.3% of the patients was male. The average appearance time of CIPS was (2.42±3.07) months after kidney transplantation. CIPS mainly affected bilateral hands, elbows, wrists, knees, ankles, feet and back. The patients had normal or elevated trough concentrations of calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) when CIPS occurred. Some patients had elevated alkaline phosphatase, parathyroid hormone, blood calcium, C-reactive protein levels, and abnormal phosphorus levels, while rheumatoid factor and uric acid levels were normal. CIPS symptoms in most patients disappeared with dose reduction of CNIs, change to different class of CNIs, pamidronate IV injection, pregabalin, calcium channel antagonists, etc. The average recovery time was (4.43±3.31) months. Conclusion The most effective treatment for CIPS is to reduce the dose of CNIs and replace immunosuppressants. Other treatments include GABA analogs, intravenous pamidronate, calcium channel blockers and conservative therapy.

ABSTRACT

Different from other trauma, the scar and pigmentation formed after healing of burn wound not only hinder beauty but also easily lead to a series of sequential psychological problems, such as depression and anxiety. Music therapy, as a supplementary treatment, is widely used in many fields including medical and health care and psychological regulation. However, affected by factors such as medical resources, the awareness and acceptance of music therapy among burn treatment workers in China are still low. Based on the clinical characteristics of burns, this paper matches the applicability of music therapy with it, summarizes the supplementary application of music therapy in the field of burn treatment, expounds this natural science with both science and aesthetics, and puts forward feasible suggestions for its future development.

ABSTRACT

The demand for acquiring different languages has increased with increasing globalization. However, knowledge of the modification of the new language in the neural language network remains insufficient. Although many details of language function have been detected based on the awake intra-operative mapping results, the language neural network of the bilingual or multilingual remains unclear, which raises difficulties in clinical practice to preserve patients' full language ability in neurosurgery. In this review, we present a summary of the current findings regarding the structure of the language network and its evolution as the number of acquired languages increased in glioma patients. We then discuss a new insight into the awake intra-operative mapping protocol to reduce surgical risks during the preservation of language function in multilingual patients with glioma.

ABSTRACT

Post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) alone or in combination with other immunosuppressive drugs has emerged as a promising strategy in the setting of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Improved survival rate was reported in lymphoid malignancies following PT-Cy strategy compared with myeloid disease in non-myeloablative bone marrow transplant setting. Thus, we aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of PT-Cy combined with cyclosporine as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis after myeloablative conditioning and T cell-replete peripheral stem cell transplantation in lymphoid malignancies. This single-arm phase II clinical trial (NCT01435447) involving 31 adult patients was conducted from January 2013 to June 2018. The donor-type neutrophil engraftment rate was 100%, and the overall incidence of grade II to IV and grade III to IV acute GVHD was 39% and 24%, respectively. The cumulative incidence rates of chronic GVHD (35%), including moderate to severe forms (10%), were reduced compared with those of the historical group (P = 0.03 and P = 0.04, respectively). With a median follow-up of 18 months, the estimated 2-year overall and event-free survival was 64.8% (95% confidence interval: 47.8%-86.7%) and 58.4% (95% CI: 41.9%-81.7%), respectively. The 2-year cumulative incidence rate of relapse was 19.5% (95% CI: 9.0%-35.8%), whereas the non-relapse mortality rate was 21.8% (95% CI: 11.3%-38.1%). These results demonstrated the feasibility of PT-Cy as GVHD prophylaxis in this clinical setting. This strategy could significantly reduce the incidence of chronic GVHD and its moderate to severe forms but not of acute GVHD and results in similar survival outcomes compared with the historical group. A prospective study with additional patients is warranted to confirm the role of PT-Cy in lymphoid malignancy.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the relationship between low serum vitamin D levels and dyslipidaemias in medical staff. Methods A total of 754 medical staff that get physical examination in our hospital were enrolled in this study. Venous blood samples were obtained, then serum 25 (OH) D and lipids level were measured. Then the blood biochemical indexes of medical staff with different levels of vitamin D were compared and the correlation between 25 (OH) D and blood lipid related biochemical indexes were analyzed. Results The average serum 25 (OH) D in the 754 subjects was (15.94±7.41) ng/mL. Patients in severe vitamin D deficient group were 156 (20.69%), and in vitamin D deficient group were 418 (57.89%), as well as in vitamin D inadequate group were 147 (19.50%) and in vitamin D adequate group were 33 (4.38%) . After adjustment of age and gender, a significantly negative correlation was found between 25 (OH) D and BMI (r=-0.090, P=0.013), TC (r=-0.309, P<0.001), TG (r=-0.079, P=0.030) and LDL-C (r=-0.143, P<0.001) . Further multivariate linear regression analysis showed that TC was negatively correlated with vitamin D (β'=-0.298, P <0.001) . Conclusion Vitamin D deficiency is very common among medical staff and we should pay attention to this condition. Vitamin D deficiency is related to the increasing of serum TC.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effect of Astragalus polysaccharide on the expressions of Nephrin and Desmin in high sugar stimulation mice podocytes. Methods Test one: the cultured mouse podocytes were divided into 5 groups: astragalus polysaccharide group [D- glucose 30 mmol/L+astragalus polysaccharide (0.0 g/L, 0.1 g/L,0.2 g/L,0.4 g/L and 0.8 g/L) ]. Test two: In test one, we chose the concentration of astragalus polysaccharide which most affected both expression of Nephrin and Desmin in podocytes and named it as astragalus polysaccharide 0. X g/L. The cultured mouse podocytes were divided into 7 groups: astragalus polysaccharide group (D- glucose 30 mmol/L+astragalus polysaccharide 0.X g/L) had been cultured for 0 h, 3 h, 6 h, 12 h,24 h,48 h and 72 h, respectively. Test three: Basted on test two, we chose the time which most affected both expression of Nephrin and Desmin in podocytes and named it as Yh. The cultured mouse podocytes were divided into 4 groups: the control group,mannitol hypertonic glucose control group, high sugar group,and astragalus polysaccharide group (high sugar group+ astragalus polysaccharide 0.X g/L) . Each group had been cultured for Yh. Nephrin and Desmin of each subgroup was detected by flow cytometry podocytes and real-time PCR. Results With the intervention of polysaccharide, Nephrin in podocyte cell surface gradually increased, Desmin gradually reduced in a concentration-dependent manner (P<0.05) . With the intervention of astragalus polysaccharide, Nephrin gradually increase and Desmin expression gradually decreased in a concentration-dependent manner (P<0.05) . Compared to the control group and the high sugar group,Nephrin mRNA increased and Desmin mRNA decreased in 0.8g/L astragalus polysaccharide co-cultured for 72h (P<0.05) . Conclusion Astragalus polysaccharide intervention can increase Nephrin and reduce Desmin in podocytes, which are possible targets of Astragalus polysaccharide in treatment of DN proteinuria.

ABSTRACT

Huolinguole lignite was sequentially extracted with carbon disulfide, ethyl acetate, methanol and acetone.All of the extracts were analyzed using a time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOF-MS) equipped with an atmospheric pressure photoionization (APPI) ion source.Toluene or 1,4-difluorobenzene was chosen as dopant for APPI.The results indicated that both dopants could well ionize compounds which could not be ionized by APPI without dopant.Toluene induced higher ionization efficiency than 1,4-difluorobenzene.Some compounds in the extracts were identified as dimers, which might be formed via molecular association.Heteroatoms were identified in all of the associated molecules.Molecular weight distributions under three APPI ionization modes were similar.Compounds with molecular weight from 200 to 500 Da occupied 60% of all the products and around 10% of the products had molecular weight over 500 Da.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effects of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in delayed encephalopathy in rats after acute carbon monoxide poisoning. Methods One hundred and sixty-eight rats were randomly divided into three groups: forty-eight rats in the blank control group (BC group), sixty rats in the air control group (AC group) as well as in the carbon monoxide poisoning group (CO group). The DEACMP model was established by improved intraperitoneal injections. The animals were valuated at 1st ,3rd, 7th, 14th, 21th, 28th day after acute carbon monoxide poisoning. Tunnel method was used to test the pyramidal cell apoptosis in the hippocampal CA1 area. The expression of Nrf2 was tested by immunohistochemical method and Western Blot method. Result In the CO group, the apoptosis index (AI) started to increase from first day and achieved it's peak at the 7th day (20.20 ± 1.78), then began to decrease slowly. The apoptosis index was still higher than that in the other groups at 28th day. And the apoptosis index of the CO group was markedly higher than the other two groups at each time point. The Nrf2 protein started to increase from 1st day in the CO group , reached its peak at 3rd day (8.20 ± 1.08), reduced later, maintained at a high level at 28th day, and expressed significantly higher than other groups at each time point. Conclusions The Nrf2 has a linear correlation with apoptosis , and plays a dual role in DEACMP because it rapidly increased in first three days to against apoptosis. But it continuously has been excessive expressed from 7th to 28th day in promoting the apoptosis of hippocampus pyramidal cells and may be a positive factor in DEACMP.

ABSTRACT

Objective With multi?center investigation, to assess the life quality of patients with maintained hemodialysis (MHD) in Liaoning Province and to explore the relationship among the mineral metabolism, the life quality of the patients with MHD, and the repeated hospitalization within the latest three years. Methods 1192 patients with hemodialysis (at least 3 months) from January to March in 2015 at ten blood purification centers in Liaoning Province were selected for the cross?————————sectional survey. The Kidney Health?related Quality of Life (HRQOL) version 1.3 was used to evaluate the MHD patients' life quality. The total length of hospitalization was divided into four groups: 0 days, 3 to 15 days, 16 to 30 days and above 30 days. Results When serum calcium value ranged from 2.1 to 2.5 mmol/L, kidney?disease component summary (KDCS), mental component summary (MCS), physical component summary (PCS) and SF?36+KDCS corresponded to a higher value (P<0.05). When serum phosphorus value ranged from 1.13 to 1.78 mmol/L, KDCS and SF?36+KDCS corresponded to a higher value (P<0.05). When the calcium phosphorus product value ranged from 40.68 to 49.94, MCS corresponded to a higher value (P<0.05). KDCS showed a linear correlation with age (P<0.001), dialysis age, serum calcium (less than or equal to 2.5 mmol/L) (P<0.05); PCS showed a linear correlation with age (P<0.001) and dialysis age (P<0.05); SF?36+KDCS showed a linear correlation with age (P<0.001), and serum calcium (less than or equal to 2.5 mmol/L) (P<0.05), while age and dialysis age were negatively correlated. The hospitalization days showed a linear correlation with age, dialysis age (P<0.001) and serum phosphorus, calcium phosphorus product value (P<0.05), while dialysis age and calcium phosphorus product value were negatively correlated. Among different groups of total hospitalization days in three years, age, hemodialysis age, serum calcium, serum phosphorus, calcium?phosphorus product value and quality of life values were all statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions The life quality of patients with MHD were correlated with serum calcium, phosphorus, calcium and phosphorus product value, iPTH, dialysis age and age, while age and dialysis age were of negative correlation. The total number of hospitalization days in 3 years was closely linearly correlated with age and dialysis age, significantly correlated with serum phosphorus, calcium and phosphorus product value, while dialysis age, calcium and phosphorus product value were in a negative correlation. The total number of hospitalization in 3 years was correlated with the patients' age, dialysis age, serum calcium, serum phosphorus, calcium and phosphorus product value and quality of life.

ABSTRACT

Objective To research the toxicity of ethanol extracts from Poylgonum multiflorum Thunb(PMT)induced by en?dotoxin of Gram-negative bacteria lipopolysaccharide(LPS)in rat liver,and then investigate the hepatotoxicity mechanisms of PMT on immune inflammatory signal pathway Toll-Like receptor 4(TLR4)-interferon regulated factor3(IRF-3). Methods SD rats were randomly assigned into normal control,LPS(4 mg/kg),acetaminophen APAP(625 mg/kg),PMT 6 g/kg(PMT-L),PMT 12 g/kg (PMT-H),LPS+APAP and LPS+PMT-L/-H groups. The 4 groups later were injected LPS 4 mg/kg by caudal vein,after 2 h,the corre?sponding drugs were administered once a day for 7 consecutive days,respectively. The changes of weight of rats were observed every day. The tissue morphology of liver tissue of rats on 2 h,14 h,5 d,8 d after administration were detected by hematoxylin-eosin stain? ing respectively. Real time quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method and Western blotting were used to detect the expression of TLR4, TRIF and IRF3 in the TLR4 signaling pathway in liver cells. Results Two hours after the rat tail vein injection of LPS,the liver tiny granulomas of rats could be observed in LPS-induced groups,and then,the liver injury of rats in LPS group was gradually recovered. Eight Days after LPS induction,the liver tissue structure of rats in LPS group was clear and complete,but in LPS+APAP group and LPS+PMT 6 or 12 g/kg groups,the focal necrosis of hepatocytes,with inflammatory cell infiltration could be observed. The results of RT-qPCR and Western blotting showed that in oral administration of PMT groups,the expression of TLR4,TRIF and IRF-3 mRNA and protein in the liver cells had no significant change compared with the normal control group. But in 4 groups induced with LPS,the expression of TLR4, TRIF and IRF-3 mRNA and protein in the liver cells were significantly higher than that of the normal control group and LPS group(P<0.05). Conclusion PMT can cause liver damage induced by LPS,the hepatotoxicity is related to the positive regulation of TLR4/IRF-3 signaling pathways,which is not related to the dosage of PMT. The results show that activating TLR4/IRF3 signaling pathway is one of the mechanisms of liver injury of PMT in rats induced by LPS.

ABSTRACT

Plague is a virulent infectious disease in China. In this study, '3S' technology was used to perform spatial autocorrelation analysis and spatial interpolation analysis for Spermophilus dauricus (S. Dauricus, a species of ground squirrel) captured in Manchuria City in 2015. The results were visually inspected. During the two-month (May to July) plague surveillance in 2015, 198 S. dauricus individuals were captured in the study area in Manchuria City (48 monitoring areas) by using a day-by-day catching method. Spatial autocorrelation was conducted using the ArcGIS software, and the following significantly different results were obtained: Moran's I=0.228472, Z-score=2.889126, and P<0.05. Thus, a spatial aggregation was observed. In 2015, the distribution of S. dauricus diminished from west to east and from north to south of Manchuria. Geo Detector software was used to analyze the habitat factors affecting the spatial distribution of S. dauricus. This highly clustered species mainly exists in suburban communities, construction sites, and areas surrounding factories. In future studies, plague surveillances should be performed in areas around Manchuria and Zhalainuoer.
