Objective To assess the characteristics of heart rate turbulencer (HRT) in elderly patients with decreased left ventricular diastolie function.Methods 40 patients were divided into two groups:20 patients with enlarged left atrium and 20 patients without enlarged left atrium.20 healthy people were selected as controls. Turbu1ence onset (TO) and turbulence slope (TS) were measured,and correlation was analyzed between TO,TS and the E/A,index of Macruz and heart rate variability (HRV).Results TO was higher (P<0.05) and TS was lower in patients (P<0.01),TO was higber in patients with enlarged left atrium than in with out enlarged lef atrium people (P<0.05) and TS was lower (P<0.01).TO was positively (P<0.01) and TS Was negatively (P<0.05),correlated with the index of Macruz.TO Was negatively (P<0.05) and TS was positively (P<0.05) related to SDNN and SDANN.Conclusion HRT can be used as a potential risk predictor in decreased left ventricular diastolic function patients.

Objective To explore the effective molecular mechanism of PPAR-γligands rosiglitazone to biliary ischemia-reperfusion injury in autologous liver transplantation. Method A total of 40 SD rats were randomly (random number) divided into sham operation group (SO), ischemia - reperfusion group (Ⅰ/R), rosiglitazone (ROS) and GW9662 group, with 10 ones in each. The models, rat biliary ischemiareperfusion injury of autologous liver transplantation, were made by modified two-cuff technique. Tissues of the liver and bile ducts and blood of those models were evaluated by pathological and biochemical methods to make sure the models were made successfully or not. SO group suffered autologous orthotopic liver transplantation, and L/R group suffered both that and ischemia-reperfusion. ROS group were injected rosiglitazone (0.3mg/kg) via portal vein after having been done all as I/R. GW9662 group suffered all as ROS, and 10min later ,they were injected GW9662(0.3mg/kg) via portal vein. 4h after the experiment, tissues of livers and bilary ducts were taken to be tested by immunohistochemistry method, and the blood punctured from the right ventricular were taken to be determined by ELISA. ANOVA was used for statistical analysis.Results IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 were mainly expressed in the cytoplasm of hepatocytes and bile duct cells,while NF-κB was expressed both in the cytoplasm and nuclei. Expression of those proteins in L/R and GW9662 group was increased, significantly higher when compared to the SO and ROS (P ＜ 0.05). IL-1β,TNF-α and IL-6 in rat serum were simultaneously increased, and significantly higher than SO(P ＜0.05).Compared with the SO, expressions of the IL-1 β,TNF-α and IL-6 were not significantly changed in ROS (P＞ 0.05 )but significantly increased in GW9662. Conclusions PPAR-γ ligand rosiglitazone took protective role in biliary ischemia-reperfusion injury in autologous liver transplantation. The mechanism correlates with the release of the IL-lα, IL-1β and TNF-α and other inflammatory mediators, which decreased as the expression of NF-κB inhibited by its antagonist.

As a new type of environmental pollutants, microplastics are widely distributed in the global ecosystem, and ingestion of microplastics may produce a number of toxic effects. Based on currently available publications, this paper describes the main pathways of exposure to microplastics, and summarizes the toxic mechanisms of microplastics in mammals, including oxidative stress, inflammatory response, immune damage, imbalance of gut microbiota, energy metabolism disorder and DNA damage, so as to provide insights into elucidation of the toxic mechanism mechanisms and health risk assessment of microplastics.

Objective To observe the effects of microRNA-21 (miR-21) inhibitor on apoptosis of type Ⅱalveolar epithelial cells (AEC Ⅱ) in rats with hyperoxia-induced acute lung injury (HALI).Methods Eighty Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided into air-control group,hyperoxia injury group,empty-virus control group (200 μL solution with lentivirus was dropped into the nasal) and miR-21 inhibitor pretreatment group (200 μL solution with lentivirus contained miR-21 inhibitor was dropped through the nasal) by random number table.After treatment,the rats in all groups were fed in the hyperoxia incubator with oxygen concentration exceeding 90％ for production of HALI model,and the rats in air-control group were fed normally without any treatment.Ten rats were selected at 0,24,48 and 72 hours after exposure in hyperoxia environment respectively,and the general changes of lung tissues were observed in light microscope.The right lung tissues were harvested to observe the pathological changes under light microscopy.The left lung tissues of other 10 rats in each group were harvested at 48 hours after execution,the miR-21 expression was determined by real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR),the protein expression of cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase-3 (caspase-3) was determined by Western Bolt,and apoptosis of AEC Ⅱ was detected by TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL).Results ① No abnormal appearance in lung tissues was observed at all time points in the air-control group.In hyperoxia injury group,the lung injury would be more severe if the exposure time was longer,and lung tissues turned dark red after exposure for 72 hours,with patchy hemorrhage in several places;the structure of lung tissues was disordered,the alveolar wall was broken,the alveolar septum was significantly edematous and broadened,and there was plenty of inflammatory cell infiltration and edema fluid appeared inside the alveolar space.In miR-21 inhibitor pretreatment group,the degree of lung tissue injury was more severe than that of the hyperoxia injury group,and there was no significant change in empty-virus control group.(②) Compared with air-control group,miR-21 expression of the hyperoxia injury group was significantly decreased (2-△△Ct:0.021 ± 0.005 vs.0.037 ± 0.006),and the protein expression of caspase-3 was significantly increased (A value:0.423±0.081 vs.0.123±0.023,both P ＜ 0.05).After pretreatment with miR-21 inhibitor,the expression of miR-21 was further decreased (2-△△Ct:0.014±0.003 vs.0.021 ±0.005),while the protein expression of caspase-3was further increased (A value:0.691 ±0.085 vs.0.423 ±0.081,both P ＜ 0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the expression of miR-21 (2-△ △ct:0.025 ± 0.007 vs.0.021 ± 0.005) and caspase-3 (A value:0.475 ± 0.062vs.0.423 ±0.081) between empty-virus control group and hyperoxia injury group (both P ＞ 0.05).(③) Compared with air-control group,the apoptosis cells in hyperoxia injury group were increased,which was further increased after pretreatment of miR-21 inhibitor,but no changes were found in empty-virus control group.Conclusion Inhibition of miR-21 expression in vivo could aggravate the injury of lung tissue in HALI rats,and increase the apoptosis of AEC Ⅱ.

BACKGROUND:Autologous hard palate mucosa has been validated to be a substitute of the tarsal conjunctival. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the treatment outcomes of autologous hard palate mucosa applied in the eyelid reconstruction. METHODS:180 patients (180 eyes) with eyelid defects aged 10-63 years old were recruited, including 122 males and 58 females, and subjected to the transplantation of autologous hard palate mucosa. In the same time, flaps were designed and transferred into the defected eyelid soft tissues. All patients were followed up for over 3 months to observe the treatment outcomes. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Three months after surgery, viscous secretions were found in the implanted region and conjunctival sac, which were relieved and eliminated by usage of antibiotic drops. All implanted hard palate mucosa survived within 1 year, neither infections nor falling off occurred, and blood vessels growth into the implant-tissue conjugation that inosculated with the host vessels presenting no rejection. The implants revealed different degrees of shrink in 132 patients, but the eye function was normal. During the hospitalization, some uncomfortable feeling such as eye pain had been relieved, and the wound showed no infections and healed well. During the follow-up, there were eight patients with slight lower eyelid ectropion and three with hypophasis. The length or height difference of both eyelids was within 2 mm, except those who lost eye bal s. These results suggest that autologous hard palate mucosa achieve satisfactory outcomes in the eyelid reconstruction and possesses good histocompatibility.
