Both single and long-term aerobic exercise may play a role for insulin resistance (IR), however, there is no agreement for in-terval exercise. Simple resistance training is controversial, and the significance of resistance-aerobic exercise for IR is also mixed.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the serum uric acid (SUA) levels and the short-term clinical outcome in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage.Methods Consecutive patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage admitted within 24 hours after onset were prospectively included.SUA levels was measured on the next morning after admission.Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to ascertain clinical outcome at 30 days.The patients were divided into a good outcome group (mRS＜2) and poor outcome group (mRS≥3).Results A total of 92 patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage were included,and 46 of them (50％) were men,the mean age was 63 ± 12 years.At 30 days after onset,22 patients (23.9％) had a good outcome and 70 patients (76.1％) had a poor outcome.Univariate analysis showed that the Glasgow Come Scale (GCS) score in the good outcome group was significantly higher than that in the poor outcome group (13.85 ± 2.80 vs.11.21 ± 2.51; t=4.186,P=0.000),while hematoma volume (25.65 ±5.33 cm3 vs.34.60± 8.97 cm3,t=4.430,P=0.000) and SUA levels (324.90± 86.02 μmol/L vs.458.63 ±72.77 μmol/L; t =7.193,P =0.000) were significantly lower than those in the poor outcome group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the lower GCS score (odds ratio [OR]1.810,95％ confidence interval [CI]1.382-2.382; P =0.001),larger hematoma volume (OR 1.156,95％ CI 1.045-1.280; P=0.005) and higher SUA levels (OR 2.127,95％ CI 1.055-4.287; P=0.035) were the independent predictive factors for the short-term clinical outcome in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage.Conclusions The increased SUA levels may predict the poor short-term clinical outcome in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage.

Objective To analyze and compare the incidence of cerebral vasospasm (CVS) in patients with aneurismal subarachnoid hemorrhage(aSAH) in China and in Europe.Methods A literature search was performed for all the papers investigating the incidence,diagnosis, treatment or prognosis of CVS after aSAH using the MEDLINE and China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database (CNKI) from January 1, 1990 to December 31, 2010.The incidences of angiographic CVS, symptomatic CVS and CVS-related infarcts were recorded.The incidences of CVS between Chinese and white men in Europe were compared. Results A total of 237 articles were searched via CNKI and reference reviews, and 9 of the studies met the inclusion criteria. A total of 172 articles were searched via MEDLINE and reference reviews, and 18 of the studies met the inclusion criteria. The risk of occurring symptomatic CVS in patients with aSAH in Chinese was significantly higher than that in white men in Europe (relative risk,2. 063, 95％ confidence interval 1.816-2. 343, P ＜0. 001). Conclusions The incidence of CVS in patients with aSAH in Chinese was significantly higher than that in white men in Europe,indicating the pathogenesis of CVS may have genetic basis.

Objective To evaluate the impact of acute hyperglycemia on the short-term prognosis in patients with primary intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) with meta-analysis. Methods The prospective or retrospective cohort studies or case-control studies of the relationship between baseline blood glucose levels and short-term prognosis (at least were followed up to discharge or 1 month) in patients with ICH within 24 hours were searched and reported. A meta-analysis software package (RevMan 4. 2) was used to pool data for the literatures in accordance with the inclusion criteria. The publication bias was analyzed and the sensitivity analysis was used to evaluate the stability of the results. Results The risk of mortality at the end of the follow up in the normoglycemia group was significantly lower than that in the hyperglycemia group (odds ratio 0. 24,95% CI 0. 19-0. 30; P <0. 000 01); the baseline plasma glucose level was significantly lower than that in the survival group (weighted mean difference -2. 30,95% CI -2. 36- -2.23; P< 0.000 01). Conclusions Acute hyperglycemia can significantly increase the risks of short-term mortality in patients with primary ICH. It is necessary to conduct a prospective randomized trial in order to investigate the effect of intensive glucose control on the prognosis of the patients with ICH.

Objective To clone and express the human asialoglycoprotein receptor(ASGPR) H1 subunit, purify and identify the immunoreactivity of the recombinant protein, and establish the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect anti-ASGPR antibodies in diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis. Methods The CRDHI cDNA (435 bp) was subcloned into eukaryotic vector PEGH, and the recombinant protein expression was induced by D (+)-Galactose. The recombinant CRDH1 was purified with Glutathione Sepharose 4B, and its immunoreactivity was identified by SDS-PAGE and western blot as well as MALDI-TOF. ELISA was established to detect the anti-ASGPR antibodies in serum samples of 45 patients with AIH, 30 patients with SLE, 30 patients with RA, 10 patients with SS and 30 normal controls. Results The sequencing of recombinant plasmid showed the CRDH1 gene was successfully inserted to the eukaryotic expression vector with correct sequence and open reading frame. The fusion protein showed a molecular weight of 42 500 Da on SDS-PAGE gel and confirmed to be the human ASGPR by MALDI-MS through peptide mass fingerprint analysis with Mascot in human protein database. It shared 98. 34% homology with ASGPR H1 subunit. Western blot analysis showed that the fusion protein had the same immunoreactivity as human ASGPR. The results of ELISA indicated that the positive rate of anti-ASGPR was 35.6% ( 16/45 ), but the ELISA was negative in other control. There was significant difference of positivity of the autoantibodies between AIH and non-AIH controls (χ2 = 31.85,P < 0. 01 ). Conclusions The human plasmid containing ASGPR is successfully clone into Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y258. The recombinant autoantigen owns good antigenicity and specificity. ELISA established with the purified protein shows good specificity for diagnosis of AIH.

Objective To analyze the quality of life among adults with chronic suppurative otitis media,and to research the chan-ges of the life quality between preoperative and postoperative.Methods We modified the chronic ear survey(CES)through inter-view adults with chronic suppurative otitis media.The modified scale (Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media Outcome Survey)was ad-ministered to 110 patients in a prospective manner,and then was validated according to established criteria for reliability and validi-ty.Then we assessed the outcomes of surgeries for chronic suppurative otitis media.Results The chronic suppurative otitis media outcome survey includes 17 entries,and was divide into four dimensions.Excellent test-retest reliability was obtained for the survey score (R=0.967).Cronbach′s α correlation coefficient were calculated as 0.864 for the total survey.Criterion validity showed a high correlation between scores on chronic suppurative otitis media outcome survey and scores on CES (R=0.977,P <0.01).U-sing principal components extraction with orthogonal rotation,it was performed on the composite data set,and this yielded a four-factor solution that explained 70.394% of the variance.The average score of patients before surgery was 51.660±10.762,post-op-erative scores was 75.893 ± 7.734.The total score wasn′t significantly changed after the surgery,and the average value was 24.23±7.67 (t=24.653,P <0.01).Conclusion The chronic suppurative otitis media outcome survey is a reliable and valid meas-ure of quality of life for adults with chronic suppurative otitis media,and it is more suitable than the CES in outcomes studies and clinical trials.

Objective To identify a novel auto-antibody in sera of systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients and to analyze its relevance with SSc-associated interstitial lung disease (ILD). Methods The anti-moesin antibody in the sera of 62 SSc patients, who had participated the European League Against Rheumatism's Scl eroderma Trial and Research Group (EUSTAR), were tested by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELJSA). Patients were grouped by high resolution computerized tomography (HRCT) features, pulmonary function test (PFT) abnormalities, inflammatory markers and disease course. The prevalence and titer (Optical density value) of anti-moesin antibody were compared between groups with t and χ2 test. Results The titer of anti-moesin antibody was significantly higher in the SSc-ILD group than non-ILD group (0.156±0.062 vs 0.107± 0.026, P=0.005). Among SSc patients, the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of the anti-moesin antibody for ILD was 44.0% and 91.7% respectively (Kappa=0.2, P=0.022). Anti-rnoesin antibody was more prevalent in SSc patients with HRCT features of honeycomb-like lesion, lobular septal thickening and mediastinal lymphadenopathy (P<0.05). SSc patients with deteriorated total lung volume (TLC %) had higher titer of anti-moesin antibody significantly (0.172±0.067 vs 0.133±0.039, P=0.011), as the same tendency in patients with decreased diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLco% ) but without statistical significant difference (0.153±0.580 vs 0.120±0.340, P=0.089). The anti-moesin antibody was equally prevalent between abnormal ESR, C reactive protein, immunoglobulin and complements groups and their normal controls (P> 0.05). Group of patients who had SSc courses more than or less than 5 years demonstrated similar anti-moesin antibody titers (0.146±0.047 vs 0.164±0.077, P=0.272). However, patients with ILD courses less than 12 months had higher liter of the antibody than controls (0.182±0.073 vs 0.138±0.049, P=0.040). Conclusion This study suggests that the novel anti-moesin antibody has comparatively high specificity for SSc-associated ILD patients, which may contribute to further understanding the pathogenesis of ILD in SSc patients. Further investigations are deserved to evaluate the application of anti-moesin antibody in facilitating early screening and evaluation of ILD.

In kidney, the role of cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, inflammatory mediators and cytokines expression is closely related with cell signaling pathways, including tyrosine kinase pathway, transforming growth factor-beta/Smad pathway, Rho/Rho-associated coiled-coil forming protein kinase pathway, phosphoinositol pathway, cyclic nucleotide pathway, nuclear factor kappaB pathway and so on. Some Chinese herbs and their extracts, such as rhubarb and triptolide, as well as some Chinese herbal prescriptions, such as astragalus-angelica mixture and Chailing decoction, not only could ameliorate proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis of renal cell by regulating cell signaling pathways, but also could control target gene transcription, expression and its biological effects through inhibiting the phosphorylation of key signaling molecules.
