RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the correlations between serum E selectin, intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) and left ventricular geometry and function in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) combined with prehypertension (pre-HT).Methods:A total of 462 patients with pre-HT and OSAS diagnosed by polysomnography (PSG) in the sleep monitoring unit of the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine at the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from July 2019 to July 2022 were restrospectively analysed, and 52 patients with pure pre-HT (pre-HT group) and 73 patients with pure OSAS (OSAS group) in the same period were selected as the control group. OSAS and pre-HT patients were divided into four groups according to left ventricular geometry: normal geometry (NG) group, concentric remodeling (CR) group, eccentric hypertrophy (EH) group and concentric hypertrophy (CH) group. The general clinical data, PSG parameters, blood biochemical parameters and left ventricular structure and function parameters were compared among the six groups. Pearson correlation and multivariate Logistic regression were used to analyze the correlation between E-selection, ICAM-1, VCAM-1, general clinical data, PSG parameters, blood biochemical parameters with left ventricular geometry and function.Results:①Serum E selectin, ICAM-1, and VCAM-1 concentrations increased sequentially from the NG, CR, and EH to CH groups, with the most significant increase in CH group (all P<0.05). In addition, there were statistically significant differences in age, body mass index (BMI), OSAS severity, neck circumference, waist circumference, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), Glu, lowest oxygen saturation (Lowest-SaO 2), mean oxygen saturation (Mean-SaO 2), percentage of time with oxygen saturation below 90% of total sleep time (T90), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd), interventricular septal thickness (IVST), left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWT), left ventricular mass index (LVMI), relative ventricular wall thickness (RWT), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), peak mitral early diastolic flow velocity/peak mitral late diastolic flow velocity (E/A), E wave deceleration time (DT), A wave duration (AD), and isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT), and overall long-axis longitudinal strain (GLS) and so on(all P<0.05). ②Pearson correlation analysis showed that E selectin was negatively correlated with LVEF, E/A, e′, E/e′, IVRT, and GLS ( r=-0.236, -0.131, -0.224, -0.215, -0.285, -0.336; all P<0.05). ICAM-1 was negatively correlated with LVEF, E, E/A, e′, IVRT, and GLS( r=-0.130, -0.129, -0.104, -0.351, -0.252, -0.259; all P<0.05). VCAM-1 was negatively correlated with E, e′, and IVRT ( r=-0.132, -0.312, -0.387; all P<0.001). ③Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that E selectin and VCAM-1 were independently correlated with EH (β=1.139, OR=3.124, P=0.030; β=1.288, OR=3.626, P<0.001) and with CH (β=1.178, OR=3.248, P=0.013; β=1.108, OR=3.028, P<0.001). Conclusions:E selection and VCAM-1 were independently correlated with hypertrophic left ventricular geometry, suggesting that E selectin and VCAM-1 may be involved in the process of abnormal left ventricular structure and function in patients with OSAS combined with pre-HT.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the predictive value of transrectal multimodal ultrasound and prostate specific antigen (PSA) in clinically organ-confined prostate cancer.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study. The clinical data of patients with suspected prostate nodules treated in the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from May 2014 to April 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. Of the patients, 48 cases of clinically organ-confined prostate cancer and 51 cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia confirmed by clinical data and pathology were selected as research objects. The characteristics of transrectal multimodal ultrasound in the two groups were compared. Combined with PSA, logistic regression analysis was applied to screen the statistically significant features, and then the diagnosis model was established, and odds ratio of the variables were compared. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was constructed to analyze the predicting ability of the diagnosis model.Results:Four features were obtained with logistic regression analysis finally, including enhancement type, enhancement degree, elastography mode and PSA. The odds ratio of enhancement degree was higher than those of the other independent variables. The area under ROC curve of the diagnosis model was 0.868 ( P<0.01), the cut-off value was 0.514. The sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosis model in predicting clinically organ-confined prostate cancer was 79.2% and 80.4%, respectively. Conclusions:This combined diagnosis model of transrectal multimodal ultrasound and PSA has a certain clinical value in predicting clinically organ-confined prostate cancer.
RESUMEN
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is an extremely malignant pulmonary vascular disease of unknown etiology. ADAR1 is an RNA editing enzyme that converts adenosine in RNA to inosine, thereby affecting RNA expression. However, the role of ADAR1 in PH development remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated the biological role and molecular mechanism of ADAR1 in PH pulmonary vascular remodeling. Overexpression of ADAR1 aggravated PH progression and promoted the proliferation of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs). Conversely, inhibition of ADAR1 produced opposite effects. High-throughput whole transcriptome sequencing showed that ADAR1 was an important regulator of circRNAs in PH. CircCDK17 level was significantly lowered in the serum of PH patients. The effects of ADAR1 on cell cycle progression and proliferation were mediated by circCDK17. ADAR1 affects the stability of circCDK17 by mediating A-to-I modification at the A5 and A293 sites of circCDK17 to prevent it from m1A modification. We demonstrate for the first time that ADAR1 contributes to the PH development, at least partially, through m1A modification of circCDK17 and the subsequent PASMCs proliferation. Our study provides a novel therapeutic strategy for treatment of PH and the evidence for circCDK17 as a potential novel marker for the diagnosis of this disease.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the risk factors of long-term mortality in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (APE) and to explore the predictive value of echocardiography.Methods:A total of 109 APE patients admitted in First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University between December 2010 and November 2014 were enrolled in this study. APE was diagnosed by computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) or ventilation-perfusion pulmonary scintigraphy. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) parameters and clinical parameters within 48 h of onset were collected. All the patients were treated with standard anticoagulation, thrombolysis, or thrombectomy. Regular follow-up was carried out, with the average follow-up period of (7.20±1.04) years. The patients were divided into survival group and fatal group according to their follow-up results. The echocardiographic parameters and primary biochemical laboratory parameters within 48 h after onset were compared between the survival group and the fatal group by t test or χ 2 test. Cox regression analysis was conducted to analyze the influencing factors of long-term prognosis of patients with APE. Survival analysis was performed in patients with echocardiographic assessment of right ventricular (RV) enlargement and/or dysfunction and without RV enlargement and/or dysfunction by Kaplan-Meier method, and the survival curves were plotted. The comparison between the two groups was performed by log-rank test. Results:The average follow-up period was (7.20±1.04) years. Fourteen patients were lost in the follow-up, and 95 patients were included in the final analysis, among whom 58 survived and 37 died with a fatality rate of 39.0%. Cox regression analysis showed that age ( HR=2.32, 95% CI:1.31-4.13, P=0.004), malignancy ( HR=6.49, 95% CI:2.32-18.14, P<0.001), right atrial (RA)/left atrial (LA) area ratio ( HR=2.01, 95% CI:1.16-3.48, P=0.013), RV enlargement and/or dysfunction ( HR=5.90, 95% CI: 1.45-23.94, P=0.013), Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) score ( HR=1.75, 95% CI: 1.04-2.96, P=0.035), low oxygen saturation ( HR=1.70, 95% CI:1.14-2.53, P=0.009) were independent risk factors associated with long-term mortality in patients with APE. Kaplan Meier survival curve analysis showed that the cumulative survival rates of patients with RV enlargement and/or dysfunction at 1, 3, 5 and 7 years were 92.8%, 66.7%, 59.4% and 52.2% respectively, and those without RV enlargement and/or dysfunction were 96.2%, 92.3%, 84.6% and 84.6%,respectively (log rank test, P=0.006). Conclusions:Patients with APE have high long-term mortality. Early echocardiographic RV enlargement and/or dysfunction, RA/LA area ratio, age, malignant tumor, CCI score and low oxygen saturation are independent risk factors related to long-term mortality in patients with APE. Ultrasound evaluation of patients with RV enlargement and/or dysfunction has a certain value in predicting long-term mortality in patients with pulmonary embolism.

RESUMEN
Objective:To observe the synaptic plasticity and characteristics of transmembrane calcium flux in the hippocampus of 3xTg-AD mice.Methods:According to different genotypes, 6-month-old mice were divided into two groups: APP/PS1/tau triple transgenic AD (3xTg-AD) model mice and wild type (WT) mice, with 13 mice in each group.Six mice were randomly selected from each group to do in vivo electrophysiological recording.Field excitatory postsynaptic potential (fEPSP) was evoked by test stimulation, paired-pulse facilitation (PPF) was induced by two stimuli, and long-term potentiation (LTP) was induced by high frequency stimulation (HFS) in the hippocampal CA1 region of mice.The remaining seven mice in each group were used to detect the transmembrane calcium influx and efflux in the slices of hippocampal CA1 region by using non-invasive micro-test technology (NMT). In the electrophysiological and NMT experiments, one mouse fell off respectively.Finally, five mice were enrolled in the electrophysiological experiment and six in the NMT experiment.SPSS 18.0 was used for statistical analysis of all data, and two independent sample t-test was used for comparison between the two groups. Results:(1) In the in vivo electrophysiological experiments, the fEPSP slopes of 3xTg-AD mice and WT mice evoked by test stimulation were stable within 30 min, and the average fEPSP slopes were ((97.8±2.3)%) and ((92.6±12.6)%), respectively.There was no statistical difference of the average fEPSP slopes between the two groups ( t=0.91, P>0.05). After paired-pulse stimulation, the PPF values of 3xTg-AD mice and WT mice were (1.58±0.69) and (1.74±0.17) respectively, and there was no statistical difference between the two groups ( t=0.50, P>0.05). At 30 min and 60 min post-HFS, the LTP values in 3xTg-AD mice were ((104.9±10.9)%) and ((98.0±10.8)%) respectively, which were significantly lower than those in WT mice((156.5±21.3)%, t=4.43, P<0.01; (162.5 ±19.7)%, t=5.92, P<0.01). (2) In NMT experiments, the standardized mean and peak velocities of glutamate-induced Ca 2+ influx in hippocampal CA1 region of 3xTg-AD mice were ((-2 166.0±425.0)%) and ((-3 539.6±1 270.9)%) respectively, which were significantly higher than those in WT mice((-735.3±262.9)%, t=6.81, P<0.01; (-917.3±271.7)%, t=4.89, P<0.01). The standardized average and peak velocities of low Ca 2+ solution-induced Ca 2+ efflux in 3xTg-AD mice were ((1 451.6±297.1)%) and ((1 968.7±227.3)%) respectively, which were significantly lower than those in WT mice((2 579.3±810.9)%, t=2.92, P<0.05; (3 420.4±954.8)%, t=3.31, P<0.01). Conclusion:The hippocampal synaptic plasticity impairment observed in 6-month-old 3xTg-AD may be closely related with the intracellular Ca 2+ overload caused by increased calcium influx and decreased calcium efflux.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the predictive value of high frequency ultrasound and contrast-enhanced imaging features in predicting cervical lymph node metastasis of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC).Methods:A retrospective analysis of 184 patients with PTMC confirmed by surgery and pathology in the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from March 2015 to December 2018 was performed. According to the presence or absence of lymph node metastasis, the patients were divided into metastasis group and non-metastasis group. Univariate analysis was used to compare the features of high frequency ultrasound and contrast-enhanced ultrasound in the two groups, and multivariate regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors of cervical lymph node metastasis, and their prediction value was analyzed with ROC curves.Results:Among 184 patients, 50 (27.2%) had lymph node metastasis. Univariate analysis showed that age (χ 2=10.026) , number of nodules (χ 2=10.497) , calcification (χ 2=17.414) , aspect ratio (χ 2=4.564) , nodule location (χ 2=20.542) , enhancement time (χ 2=7.882) , enhancement mode (χ 2=6.416) and enhancement intensity (χ 2=9.899) were significantly associated with cervical lymph mode metastasis (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that age<45 years old ( OR=2.626, 95 %CI:1.141-6.052) , multifocal lesions ( OR=3.648, 95 %CI:1.542-8.631) , microcalcification ( OR=2.925, 95 %CI:1.055-8.115) and equal/high enhancement ( OR=8.042, 95 %CI: 1.879-34.429) were independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis ( P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of above indicators combined was 0.762. Conclusions:High frequency ultrasonography combined with contrast-enhanced imaging can provide useful information for predicting cervical lymph node metastasis of PTMC. For PTMC patients aged<45 years with multifocal lesions, microcalcification and equal/high enhancement, the risk of cervical lymph node metastasis is significantly increased.

RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the right ventricular (RV) systolic function in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) by speckle tracking imaging (STI).Methods A total of 40 cases with SLE were divided into two groups,SLE (24 cases) and SLE complicated with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) (16 cases).Meanwhile,35 healthy subjects were used as control group.Longitudinal peak systolic strain (PSS) of the basal,mid,apical segments of the free wall of right ventricular and interventricular septum and suben-docardial myocardium of the whole right ventricular were measured by STI respectively.Every parameter was compared.And the main factors affecting the strain of the whole right ventricule were analyzed.T test,one-way ANVOA,SNK-q,Spearman's correlation and Pearson's correlation analysis were used for statistical analysis.Results ① In SLE group,strains of the whole RV(GLS RV) [(-22±4)%] and all segments of RV wall[the basal segments of free wall (bas FW) (-27±8)% were lower than that of the control group (-26±4)%,(-33±6)%,respectively (t=-4.815,P=0.000; t=-3.619,P=0.001)].Tricuspid valve orifice peak velocity E/A and right ventricular ejection fraction were significantly different between SLE group and control group (P<0.05).② In terms of conventional parameters and the strain of all segments of RV wall,bas FW and GLS RV were different between the SLE group [(-30±7)%,(-23.7±3.5)%,respectively] and SLE with PAH group [(-22±6)%,(-18.4±2.3)%,respectively] (t=-3.581,P=0.001; t=-5.769,P=0.000).③ The RV anterior wall thickness of the moderate-severe subgroup was significantly higher than that of the mild group [(5.0±0.8) mm,(4.3±0.8) mm; t=-2.49,P=0.017].GLS RV[(-19±4)%,(-24±7)%;t=-3.016,P=0.015],bas FW [(-22±9)%,(-35±6)%; t=-3.125,P=0.03] and bas IVS [(-19±6)%,(-24±6)%; t=-2.272,P=0.029] were significantly lower than that of the mild group.Conclusion Right ventricular function is decreased in patients with SLE.STI can be used objectively to assess the right ventricular longitudinal systolic function.
RESUMEN
Objective To observe changes of the right ventricular (RV) myocardial strain and the time to peak strain (ST) before and after anticoagulant and thrombolytic therapy in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (APE) by two dimension speckle tracking imaging (2D-STI).Methods A total of 25 patients with APE along with 30 age-matched and gender-matched normal subjects (as control group) were examined by echocardiography.And basal,mid,apical segments of right ventrieular wall and septum (6-segments) longitudinal peak systolic strain (PSS) and the time to peak strain (ST) were analyzed by 2D-STI.The mean and standard deviation (STsD) of 6-segmental ST were calculated.Results ①Compared with control group cases,PSS of 6-segments were significantly impaired in patients with APE (P <0.05).②The PSS of 6-segments in APE patients after treatment were significantly higher than that of before treatment (P <0.05).The PSS of apical segment of the right ventricular wall and interventricular septum in APE patients after treatment showed no significant difference with the control group (P >0.05).The PSS of other segments in APE patients were significantly lower than that of control group (all P <0.05).③The STsD of APE patients before and after treatment were significantly higher than that of the control group (P <0.05).Conclusions The PSS of 6-segments of RV were decreased in patients with APE and STsD were increased.After treatment,the PSS of APE patients were returned.However,the PSS in APE patients were not returned to normal.Two-dimension STI can objectively assess the curative effect of APE patients after treatment.

Objective The purpose of this report is to improve the recovery rate of diseases by integrating the advantages of mature treatment programs,with the method of diseases heterogeneity research.Methods Two programs (each program consist of effective group and invalid group) were took into investigation to study the characteristics of heterogeneity.If it showed that heterogeneous differences exist between the two effective groups,then we would treat the patients in different ways.Results The total effective rate of heterogeneous treatment was better than that of current optimal treatments.Conclusion Heterogeneous treatment could be applied to all diseases,either to TCM or to western medicine diseases.If the heterogeneous treatment can be popularized,it would improve the recovery rate of diseases surely.
RESUMEN
Research of diseases' heterogeneity is a study method,which is based on the current ideas of single-program of clinical research,by means of searching the heterogeneous feature that corresponding to therapeutic schedule,optimizing and integrating the mature treatment programs,and aiming to improve diseases' recovery rate.Its characteristic is that it can integrate the advantages of current mature treatment programs,and make optimal effect.In this paper,we put forward the background,methods and ideas in the research of diseases' heterogeneity.
RESUMEN
There are two treatments of A and B for disease X,if B replaced A,some patients that effective originally may become invalid.That is,the new drugs can increase the efficiency but may keep the effective patients out of the crowd at the same time.In this paper,we put forward the method of cake segmentation based on the principle of diseases' heterogeneity,optimize and make up the effective programs at present.The treatment based on diseases' heterogeneity will replace the best medicines currently,and format new treatments.
RESUMEN
Syndrome differentiation of prescription is a more practical,simple and effective method which is distinguished from syndrome differentiation with eight principals,syndrome differentiation of viscera and syndrome differentiation of Wei Qi Ying Xue.However,after the ages of classical prescriptions,most of the current prescriptions,even ones from many experienced herb doctors' experiences,were seldom to summarize the syndrome corresponding to the prescription so precisely and to obtain reliable effect like the classical prescriptions.In this paper,by the research of diseases heterogeneity,we hope to excavate the syndrome which can correspond to the prescriptions of Chinese herbs and to set up a lot of prescriptions that can combine prescription and syndrome perfectly just like the classical ones in order to guide clinical treatment more conveniently and effectively.
