Objective:To investigate the effect of conventional coronary CT angiography (CCTA) bolus injection of contrast agent on the diameter and angle of the left main coronary artery (LMA) bifurcation area, and to provide a basis for the application of CCTA to accurately measure the coronary artery.Methods:In Cangzhou Central Hospital of Hebei Province from January to December 2020, the clinical data of 54 patients with suspected coronary heart disease who underwent coronary artery calcification score (CACS) and CCTA with conventional bolus injection of contrast agent were retrospectively analyzed. Two physicians measured middle lumen diameter of LMA (d1), proximal lumen diameter of left anterior descending (LAD) (d2), proximal lumen diameter of left circumflex (LCX) (d3) and bifurcation angle between LAD and LCX (∠1). The consistency of 2 physicians was compared, and the results of CACS and CCTA were compared.Results:The consistency analysis result showed that only d3 measured by CCTA had a moderate consistency (intra-group correlation coefficient = 0.717), and the remaining indexes were in good agreement (intra-group correlation coefficient >0.75). There were no statistical differences in indexes measured results between CACS and CCTA ( P>0.05). According to the degree of left coronary artery stenosis, 54 patients were divided into 2 groups: LMA and branches normal or stenosis degree < 50% group (25 cases) and LMA and branches 1 or more branches stenosis degree≥50% group (29 cases). There were no statistical differences in indexes measured results between CACS and CCTA in patients with different disease severity ( P>0.05). Conclusions:In the CCTA examination, the conventional bolus injection of contrast agent does not affect the diameter and angle of the lumen of the LMA bifurcation area of the coronary artery.

Objective To investigate the structural and functional changes of immune system in aging Sprague-Dawley rats. Methods Sixty SPF 4-6-week old SD rats(male:female=1:1)were used in this study. Ten of them were randomly taken and euthanized every 6 months. The dynamic changes of T cell proliferation,expression of cytokines,serum levels of SOD and MDA and histopathology were examined. Results Obvious histological changes of thymus and spleen were observed in the aging rats. Compared with the young SD rats,in the aging rats,the lymphocyte transformation ability was decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01),number of splenic cells was declined(P<0.05,P<0.01),NK(P<0.05,P<0.01)and T cell subset was reduced(P<0.05,P<0.01),and the production of IL-2 was decreased as well(P<0.05, P<0.01). The serum level of SOD in old rats was lower,MDA was increased,with significant differences(P<0.05,P<0.01). The immunohistochemical staining showed that more extensive staining was found in the nuclei of thymocytes from the aging rats,while the 8-OHdG formation in thymic tissues was mostly located in the thymic medulla. Conclusions Aging process is accompanied by immune impairment,oxidative stress can also impair the immune response in aging rats. Our findings indicate that structural and functional alterations of immune system in aging rats may be closely related with ox-idative damages.

Objective TNF-α monoclonal antibody drugs are widely used to treat conditions such as rheumatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. On the other hand, it is also a wide concern that the application of these drugs may increase the susceptibility of patients to infections such as tuberculosis and listeriosis. The aim of this study was to establish a mouse model of Listeria monocytogenes infection and to evaluate the effect of TNF-α monoclonal antibody on the host susceptibility to this infection. Methods Six SPF 14-week old female C57BL/6 mice and 12 SPF 14-week old female TNF-α humanized mice were injected with saline or adalimumab intravenously, and challenged with intraperitoneal injection of 104 CFU Listeria monocytogenes 24 h later. After one day or 4 days, the mice were sacrificed to examine the pathological lesions and the bacterial load in the spleen and liver. Results Four days after infection, the area of microabscess in the liver tissues was significantly increased in the adalimumab-treated group. The bacterial load in the spleen and liver tissues of the adalimumab-treated group was significantly higher than that of the C57BL/6 mouse control group and TNF-α humanized mouse control group (P < 0. 05). However, the distribution of macrophages in the liver tissues and B cells in the spleen tissues were similar among groups. Conclusions TNF-α plays an important role in the host immune responses to Listeria monocytogenes infection. After the intervention with TNF-α monoclonal antibody, the progress of host disease is significantly exacerbated.

Objective To observe the effects of 630 nm red light and 460 nm blue light emitting diode irradiation on the healing of skin wounds in Japanese big-ear white rabbits. Methods The skin wound model was established with 8 Japanese big-ear white rabbits. Three parts of vulnus in each rabbit were used:two parts of vulnus were irradiated vertically by red and blue LED light,respectively(15 min/time),and the distance between lights and wounds was 15 cm;the 3part of the wound was used as a control. On the 21day of the wounds exposure to light,the number of healing wounds and the percentage of healing area were recorded and the treatment effect of these two light sources was compared. HE staining was used to analyze the newborn tissue structure. Masson staining was used to observe the proliferation of skin collagen fibers. Immuohistochemical staining was used to analyze fibroblast growth factor(FGF),epidermal growth factor(EGF),endothelial growth factor(CD31),proliferating cell nuclear antigen(Ki-67),and inflammatory cytokines(CD68)infiltration in the skin. Results The healing rate in the red light,blue light,and control groups was 50.0%(4/8),25.0%(2/8),and 12.5%(1/8),respectively. Since the 12day after modeling,the healing area percentage in the red light group was significantly higher than those in the blue light and control groups(P<0.05,P<0.01). On the 21day after modeling,the skin thickness of the red light group was(2.95±0.34)mm,which was significantly higher than that in control group [(2.52±0.42)mm;F=3.182,P=0.016)]. The average optical density of collagen fibers was 0.15±0.03 in red light group,which was significantly higher than that of the blue light group(0.09±0.01;F=7.316,P=0.012)and control(0.07±0.01;F=7.316,P=0.003). The results of immunohistochemistry showed the expression levels of EGF,FGF,CD31 antigen,and Ki-67 in the red light group were significantly higher than those in the blue light and control groups,whereas the CD68 expression was significantly lower(P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion LED red light irradiation can promote the healing of skin wounds in Japanese big-ear white rabbits,which may be achieved by the effect of red light irradiation in stimulating the proliferation of skin epidermal cells,vascular endothelial cells,and fiberous tissue.

Objective To compare the bio-medical parameters in SIV infected Chinese rhesus monkeys with diverse disease progression,by which the pathogenesis of simian AIDS were to be investigated.Methods Sixteen Chinese rhesus monkeys were inoculated intravenously with SIVmac239 and followed-up for 18 months.Based on their progression patterns and plasma viral loads,animals were divided into 3 groups,including 1 rapid progressor( RP),13 normal progressors(NP),and 2 elite controllor(EC).Their parameters of haematology,virology,immunology and pathology were examined and compared. Results Compared with other animals,RM449(RP) showed higher viral load,unresponsive humoral immunity,and higher level of auto-antibodies against lymph node,thymus,and spleen.Additionally,its effector memory CD4 count was lower,with the transformation progress being blocked-like from naive/central memory subsets to effector memory subset,as the flow-cytometry assay showed.Notable decrease in its peripheral B cell was also observed,especially to the sub-population of tissue-like memory B cells and activated memory B cells.Pathological examination showed the depletion of lymphoid tissue,atrophy of spleen and loss of thymus.Moreover,most of these parameters of RM450 and RM453 (EC) changed opposite to that of RP.Conclusion The hallmarks of RM449 were higher viraemia and lower SIV specific IgG level,which may due to the disturbance of T cells and B cells development and differentiation.Moreover,destructions of organs of the immune system may contribute to the disturbance.Our study suggest that the change of micro-environments of thymus induced by SIV infection,which is necessary in T cell and B cell development and differentiation,may contribute at least partially to the AIDS pathogenesis.
