RESUMO
Background/Aims@#Previous studies have shown that diet and physical activity can influence constipation. However, the combined effect of diet and physical activity on constipation remains unclear. @*Methods@#Constipation was defined based on stool consistency and frequency, while overall diet quality was assessed using Healthy Eating Index (HEI)-2015 scores. Participants were categorized into low (metabolic equivalent [MET]-min/wk < 500) and high physical activitygroups (MET-min/wk ≥ 500). The association between diet and constipation across physical activity groups was analyzed using surveylogistic regression and restricted cubic splines. @*Results@#Higher HEI-2015 scores were associated with reduced constipation risk in the high physical activity group when constipation was defined by stool consistency (odds ratio [OR], 0.98; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.97-0.99). However, in the low physical activity group, increased HEI-2015 scores did not significantly affect constipation risk (OR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.97-1.05). Similar results were found when constipation was defined based on stool frequency. In the high physical activity group, increased HEI-2015 scores were significantly associated with a reduced constipation risk (OR, 0.96; 95% CI, 0.94-0.98). Conversely, in the low physical activity group, increased HEI-2015 scores did not affect the risk of constipation (OR, 0.96; 95% CI, 0.90-1.03). @*Conclusions@#Our findings suggest that a higher HEI-2015 score is negatively associated with constipation among individuals with high physical activity levels but not among those with low physical activity levels. This association was consistent when different definitions of constipation were used. These results highlight the importance of combining healthy diet with regular physical activity to alleviate constipation.
RESUMO
Objective To study the relationship between VEGF-C,CD34 expression and thyroid papillary tumor tissue by combining assays of VEGF-C and CD34 in thyroid tumor tissue.Methods The expression of VEGF-C and CD34 were dectected by immunohistochemistry in 61 cases(thyroid papillary cancer 38.thyroid adenoma 23).Results VEGF-C level in thyroid papillary cancer(38.24±19.58)were significantly hisher than that in thyroid adenoma(16.49±9.25,P<0.01);CD34 in thyroid papillary cancer (23.68 ±9.07)/HP were higher than that in thyroid adenoma(18.70±6.34,t=4.9889,P<0.01).We found a significant relationship between the VEGF-C expression and cancerometastasis or tumor size(P<0.01;P<0.05).There was also a relationship between the CD34 expression and cancerometastasis or tumor size or age (P<0.01 or P<0.05).There Was positive relationship between the expression of VEGF-C and CD34(r=0.46.P<0.01).Conclusion It is suggested that combined detections of VEGF-C and CD34 may have important reference value on the differential diagnosis between thyroid papillary tumor tissue.
RESUMO
Objective To observe insulin synthesis and secretion in INS-1 under high glucose, and to clarify the effect of PTH1R. Methods After successful construction of recombinant PTH1R-siRNA vectors in INS-1 cell, insulin secretion and intracellular insulin content of control group, siPTH1R-Negative control group, PTHrP group, and siPTH1R group under 25 mmol/L glucose were measured by radioimmunoassay in INS-1 cell. Intracellular calcium were detected by Fluo-3/AM and the capability of glucose transport was calculated by assaying the uptake of [3H]-2-deoxy-D-glucose in cells.Results Compared with control group, and siPTH1R-NC group, PTHrP group showed increased capability of insulin secretion; PTHrP group had higher intracellular insulin levels than others; PTHrP group showed increased intracellular calcium; the uptake of [3H]-2-deoxy-D-glucose under high glucose after 48h of PTHrP group was increased(all P＜0.01). Conclusion There is a close relationship between PTH1R activation and insulin secretion and synthesis, PTH1R activation may be one of the protective mechanisms in maintaining function of β-cell under high glucose.
RESUMO
Objective To study whether eicosapentaenoate can decrease the apoptosis effects in-duced by palmitic acid in INS-1 or not. Methods Based on different condition, there were four groups in this study, including control group , EPA group, palmitic acid group, combination of EPA and palmitic acid group. The grow curve was detected by MTT, and the expressions of bax were detected by Western blot.Cell apoptosis was detected by caspase-3. ROS was detected by CM2H2DCFDA kit after 48h. Result The grow curve of combination of EPA and palmitic acid group was higher than that in plamitic group[24 h :(37.33±1.15)OD vs (30. 79 ± 1.55 )OD, P < 0. 01 ;48 h:(31.50 ± 1.56)OD vs (23.94 ± 1.10)OD, P<0. 01] . Caspase-3 activity and ROS and the expression of bax and SREBP1c in combination of palmitic acid and T0901317 group were lower than those in palmitic acid group[(3566. 67 ± 305.51 )OD vs (4233. 33 ±416. 33)OD]. Conclusion EPA can inhibit apoptosis in INS-1 induced by palmitic acid.
RESUMO
To study the effect of losartan on high glucose up-regulated expression of parathyroid hormone-related peptide (PTHrP) and its type 1 receptor (PTH1R) in NRK-52E cells. The expression of PTHrP and PTH1R were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot in control group (0 mmol/L glucose) ,normal glucose group (5 mmol/ L glucose) ,moderately high glucose group (16.7 mmol/L glucose) ,high glucose group (25 mmol/L glucose) ,and after intervention by 10 μmol/L losartan for 72 h (only Western blot). The expression of PTHrP and PTH1R were up-regulated by high glucose (PTHrP mRNA : 0. 66 ± 0.08, 0. 84 ± 0. 13,1.57 ± 0. 15, and 1.73 ± 0.21 ; PTHrP protein :0.63±0.12,0.68±0.06,1.02±0. 11, and 1.04±0.08 ; PTH1R mRNA :0.26±0. 08,0.28±0.07,2.35± 0. 10,and 2.47±0. 05 ; PTH1R protein:0. 88±0. 05,0. 87±0. 10, 1.05±0. 11, and 1.12±0. 09) ,and losartan inhibited the effects of high glucose (PTHrP 0.74±0. 15, PTH1R 0.98±0.06, both P<0.01). The results suggest that losartan could inhibit the expression of FTHrP and PTH1R induced by high glucose in NRK-52E.
RESUMO
Objective To study the relationship between fragile histidine traid (FHIT), pituitary tumor transforming gene-1 (PTTG-1) in thyroid tumor tissue. Methods The expression of FHIT and PTTG-1 were detected by immunohistocbemistry in 96 eases (56 carcinoma,40 adenoma). Results Compared with thyroid adenoma, the expression of FHIT decreased (P <0.01) ,PTTG-1 increased in thyroid carcinoma(P <0.01). The expression of FHIT is different in thyroid carcinoma in eancerometastasis to non-cancerometastasis (P < 0. 01), prognosis index (≥65) and prognosis index(< 65) (P < 0.01 and P < 0.05) ; There also was statistically significant differences between the expression of PTTG in thyroid carcinoma (P <0.05 and P <0.01). Conclusion FHIT and FTTG-1 may be an important reference significance in the differentiation of benign and malignant thyroid tumor tissue, and may serve as useful prognostic markers.

RESUMO
Objective To investigate the antibacterial performance of silicone quaternary ammonium microemulsion in cosmetics.Methods The bacteriostatic effects of three preservatives(0.10% silicone quaternary ammonium microemulsion,silicone quaternary ammonium emulsion and silicone quaternary microemulsion) were compared in terms of plate culture count.Three preservatives were diluted to 0.1,0.2,0.4,0.6,0.8,1.0,1.5,2.0,2.5,3.0,3.5,5.0 g/L respectively,and the minimal inhibitory concentration was explored.The antibacterial and anti-fungi ability of the three preservatives was compared based on the microbial challenge test of 28 days.The bacteriostasis kinetics of the Escherichia coli(E.coli) was studied with the turbidimetry.Results The bacteriostasis rate of 1.0 g/L silicone quaternary ammonium microemulsion,silicone quaternary ammonium emulsion and silicone quaternary microemulsion were 100.00%,91.16% and 84.66%,respectively.The minimum bacteriostasis concentration of silicone quaternary ammonium microemulsion was 1.0 g/L for E.coli and was 0.8 g/L for Staphylococcus aureus,respectively.The results of microbial challenge experiments indicated that silicone quaternary ammonium microemulsion could pass both the antibacterial and the anti-fungi tests.Silicone quaternary ammonium emulsion could also pass the antibacterial test but failed in the anti-fungi test.However,silicone quaternary microemulsion failed in the both tests.The growth rate of E.coli was inhibited in a low level by silicone quaternary ammonium microemulsion.Conclusion Silicone quaternary ammonium microemulsion can effectively inhibit the common bacteria in cosmetics.
