Objective To investigate the clinical features of Parkinson disease (PD)with constipation.Methods From October 2013 to August 2015,a total of 204 PD patients were consecutively recruited from the Departments of Geriatrics and Neurology,Beijing Tiantan Hospital,Capital Medical University,and were evaluated by Rome Ⅲ diagnostic criteria for functional constipation and other related scales of motor symptoms(MS)and non-motor symptoms(NMS),the activity of daily living(ADL)and quality of life.Results Overall,131 of 204(64.2％)PD patients with constipation were assigned to the PD-C group and 73 of 204 (35.8％)PD patients without constipation were assigned to the PD-NC group.In the PD-C group,38 of 131(29％)PD patients had constipation before motor symptoms occurred.The mean age and age of onset in the PD-C group were significantly older than those in the PD-NC group (64.13 ± 9.67 vs.58.35 ± 11.37;60.07 ± 10.46 vs.55.10±12.97;F=2.287,4.948;t=3.827,-2.788;P＜0.01 for both).Meanwhile,compared with the PD-NC group,the PD-C group was associated with dramatically longer disease duration (2.25,range:1.00-5.00 vs.2.00,range:1.00-3.13;Z =-2.254;P ＜ 0.05),increased scores of the Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Ⅲ (26.00 scores,range:18.00 37.50 vs.19.00,range:12.50-31.00;Z =-2.349,P ＜ 0.05),more advanced stages on the Hoehn-Yahr (H-Y) scale (2.00 stage,range:1.50-2.50 vs.1.50,range:1.00-2.50;Z=-2.334,P＜0.05),higher total numbers of NMS(11.00,range:6.00-15.00 vs.6.00,range:3.00-11.00;Z=-3.715,P＜0.05),and higher numbers of NMS occurring before and after MS(before,2.00,range:0.00-4.00 vs.1.00,range:0.00-2.00;after,8.00,range:3.00-14.00 vs.5.00,range:2.00-9.50;Z =-2.612,-2.630,respectively;P＜0.05 for both).Additionally,there were significant differences between the groups in the scores of the Hamilton depression scale (HAMD),the Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA),the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI),the scales for outcomes in Parkinson disease-autonomic (SCOPA-AUT),the Fatigue severity scale (FSS),the Apathy scale,the Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA)scale,the UPDRS Ⅱ and ADL Scale,and the PDQL-39 (all P＜0.05).Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that age,SCOPA-AUT,HAMA and HAMD were risk factors for PD-C(OR=1.091,1.107,1.10 and 1.080;P＜0.05 for all).Conclusions PD patients have a high incidence of constipation,and more than a quarter of patients have constipation before MS occurs.Meanwhile,PD patients with constipation are usually associated with old age and late age of onset,long disease duration,severe MS,frequent and severe NMS,bad cognition,emotional state and sleep,severe fatigue,and apathy.Moreover,advanced age,autonomic dysfunction,anxiety and depression increase the risk of PD with constipation.Constipation has a serious negative impact on the activity of daily living and quality of life in PD patients.
RÉSUMÉ
BACKGROUND:Tissue engineering involves many disciplines such as biology, material science, medicine and engineering, so, the col aboration among different research departments is becoming an important factor to enhancing research outputs with the rapid development of related sciences and technologies. OBJECTIVE:To draw the visualizing map of col aboration network of animal-derived regenerative implantable medical devices based on tissue engineering technology and describe its evolving process and current situation. METHODS:2 518 Chinese literatures about the animal-derived regenerative implantable medical devices based on tissue engineering technology published before 31 December 2014 were searched in CNKI, WANFANG DATA and VIP. Subsequently, social network analysis was conducted on those literatures by utilizing UCINET software and SASI developed by Peking University. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The col aboration network of the animal-derived regenerative implantable medical devices has evolved from scattered to single-core dominated, and then to a core-edge one, characterized by increasing and extensive col aborations as wel as decreasing network density and centralization. The core units from 2010 to 2014 include Tsinghua University, General Hospital of Chinese PLA and Affiliated Nanfang Hospital of South Medical University. Also, plenty of edge institutes exist. In conclusion, edge institutes should expand their scope of cooperation, while core institutes should improve their cooperation sustainability. Furthermore, cooperation among enterprises, research institutes and clinical hospitals should be strengthened to promote the industrialization of tissue engineering technology.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of keratinocyte growth factor-1(KGF-1) in the kidneys of septic rats.Methods Eighty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the sepsis group and sham operation group.Either group was divided into 3-hour,6-hour,12-hour,24-hour and 36-hour subgroups,with 8 rats in each.Sepsis models were established by cecum ligation perforation (CLP).The kidney and blood samples were respectively taken for pathological study.Serum creatinine (Cr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level determination and leukocyte counting were performed.KGF-1 protein was detected by immunohistochemical method and the expression of KGF-1 genes by real time PCR.Results The renal tubules in sepsis group were injured most at 24h after operation,which were infiltrated by considerable neutrophilic granulocytes,leukomonocytes and mononuclear cells,with vacuolar degeneration,focal hemorrhage and necrosis under the light microscopy.Serum Cr and BUN increased from 6h after operation,and reached the peak at 24h after operation in sepsis group,which were significantly different in those of sham operation group (P< 0.01).Compared with sham operation group,the expression of KGF-1 protein and genes of sepsis group increased significantly and reached the peak at 6h after operation.KGF-1mRNA was positively correlated with BUN and Cr (r=0.504,P<0.01;r=0.382,P<0.05).Conclusion KGF-1 was also expressed in normal kidneys,mainly in tubule epithelial cells of renal medulla and also in that of renal cortex.The expression of KGF-1 in sepsis group was obviously higher than that of sham operation group,and was positively correlated with the degree of kidney damage after infection.KGF-1 was speculated to be one of the protective factors affecting the repair of impaired kidneys caused by infection.
RÉSUMÉ
A highly efficient cloning vector was constructed for cloning PCR products by inserting an 80 bp DMA fragment into pCEM-5zf [+] vector. The Xcm I digestion of this vector gave rise to a 3 overhanging deoxythymidine offering the possibility of cloning PCR products with 3' adenosine overhang created by Taq DMA polymerase. Furthermore, two EcoR I sites were added to the construct for identification of recombinant plasmids using a single restriction enzyme. Taken together, the more efficient cloning performance and the lower cost of this vector as compared to the commercial T vector, suggests that it may be one of the best T vectors for cloning of PCR products
