Objective To investigate whether the patients of stroke in basal ganglia have the selective deficit of recognition of disgust expression and to test the hypothesis that basal ganglia is involved in emotion processing, especially in disgust processing. Methods We developed six typical facial emotions (happiness, surprise, fear, sadness, disgust and anger) and a neutral facial emotion. A labeling task with these emotional faces measured the ability to recognize emotional faces in 32 stroke patients in basal ganglia and in 30 normal controls.Results Compared with normal controls, patients of stroke in basal ganglia impaired in perception of facial emotion (correct identification scores, 106.73?7.62, P

Objective: To explore the mechanisms of emodin in protecting intestinal mucosal barrier in rat with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods: Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham-operation group, untreated group, and emodin group. SAP in rats of the untreated group and the emodin group was induced by retrograde pumping of 3.0% sodium cholate to the common bile duct. Specimens were obtained 24 hours after the severe acute pancreatitis was induced. Serum level of leptin, serum activity of amylase and plasma content of endotoxin were measured. Ileum mucosa from ileocecal junction was observed by light microscopy and electron microscopy to measure pathological and ultrastructural changes. Apoptosis of ileum mucosal cells was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling method, and expression of Bax in ileum mucosal cells was measured by immunohistochemical method. Results: Compared with the sham-operation group, there was significant increase in the levels of leptin, endotoxin, the activity of amylase, apoptosis index and Bax expression in the untreated group (P<0.01). Compared with the untreated group, the level of endotoxin, apoptotic index and Bax expression level in the emodin group were significantly reduced (P<0.01) and the leptin level was increased (P<0.05). More severe pathological changes appeared in the untreated group than in the sham-operation group under the light and electron microscopes; meanwhile less severe damage was observed in the emodin group as compared with the untreated group. Conclusion: Emodin can inhibit the apoptosis of intestinal mucosa cells and up-regulate the serum leptin content to protect the intestina1 barrier function and prevent the translocation of bacteria and endotoxin.

Objective To explore the clinical significance of dyslipidemia in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Methods By independent-samples t test,serum lipid level was compared between 326 SLE patients and 300 healthy controls.The total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride (TG),lowdensity lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels were partially compared in subgroups of SLE patients.The correlation of serum TC,TG,LDL-C and HDL-C with clinical manifestations and laboratory findings in SLE was analyzed by Pearson or Spearman correlation analysis.Results ①The serum levels of TC [(3.8±1.5) mmol/L],TG [(2.1±1.6) mmol/L] and LDL-C [(2.1±0.9) mmol/L] were significantly higher in SLE group than those of the control group [(3.4±0.6),(0.8±0.4),(1.9± 0.5) mmol/L],and the serum level of HDL-C [(1.2±0.9) mmol/L] was significantly lower in SLE group than that of the control group [(2.0±0.5) mmolFL] (t=4.953,P=0.000; t=14.569,P=0.000; t=3.204,P=0.001; t=-14.335,P=0.000].② The serum levels of TC [(4.0± 1.7) mmol/L],TG [(2.5± 1.7) mmol/L] and LDL-C [(2.2±1.0) mmol/L] were significantly higher in LN group than those of the non-LN group [(3.6±1.0),(1.6± 1.0),(1.9±0.7) mmol/L; t=2.646,P=0.009; t=6.292,P=0.000; t=3.261,P=0.001].③ The serum level of TG [(2.2±1.6) vs (1.8±1.4) mmol/L] was significantly higher in SLE patients with hypocomplementemia than that of the normal ones (t =2.098,P=0.038).The serum level of HDL-C [(1.1 ±0.4) vs (1.6± 1.7) mmol/L] was significantly lower in SLE patients with hypocomplementemia than that of the normal ones (t=-2.375,P=0.020).④ The serum level of TG [(2.3±1.7) vs (2.0±1.4) mmol/L] was significantly higher in anti-dsDNA antibody positive patients than that of negative ones (t=1.989,P=0.048).The serum level of HDL-C [(1.5± 0.4) vs (1.4±1.2) mmol/L] was significantly lower in anti-dsDNA antibody positive patients than that of negative ones (t=-2.979,P=0.003).⑤ The lipid level was correlated with the clinical manifestations and laboratory findings in SLE patients.Conclusion Dyslipidemia exists in patients with SLE and has close correlation with LN,hypocomplementemia and positive anti-dsDNA antibody.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the characteristics and related factors of drug-induced hyperkalemia,present preven-tive measures and provide reference for the rational drug use. METHODS:46 literatures of individual cases and group cases of drug-induced hyperkalemia publicly reported in domestic medical journals from 1979 to 2014 were collected and analyzed statistical-ly,including 66 cases. RESULTS:66 cases with drug-induced hyperkalemia were mainly involved in cardiovascular drugs and im-munosuppressants. Most of them were improved after drug withdrawal and symptomatic treatment,and 2 cases died. CONCLU-SIONS:Drug-induced hyperkalemia are potentially dangerous. It is necessary to be vigilant,prevent and control timely and reduce the incidence of severe adverse reactions.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between serum microRNA-222(miR-222) and metabolism of glucose and lipid in women with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods:A total of 100 patients with PCOS (PCOS group) were enrolled from July 2018 to July 2020 in Puren Hospital Affiliated of Wuhan University of Science and Technology, and another 85 sterility patients were selected as control group. The levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C), fasting insulin (FINS), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) as well as serum miR-222 were compared between two groups, and the correlation between serum miR-222 and metabolism of glucose and lipid was analyzed.Results:The levels of TC, TG, LDL-C, FPG, FINS, HOMA-IR, miR-222 in PCOS group were higher than those in the control group: (1.30 ± 0.25) mmol/L vs. (1.04 ± 0.21) mmol/L, (4.36 ± 0.91) mmol/L vs. (3.67 ± 0.61) mmol/L, (2.51 ± 0.89) mmol/L vs. (2.13 ± 0.42) mmol/L, (5.34 ± 1.56) mmol/L vs. (4.91 ± 0.84) mmol/L, (11.08 ± 3.83) mU/L vs. (7.49 ± 2.53) mU/L; the level of HDL-C in PCOS group was lower than that in the control group: (1.08 ± 0.47) mmol/L vs. (1.53 ± 0.50) mmol/L, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The results from Logistic regression analysis showed that the levels of TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, FINS, HOMA-IR, miR-222 were independent risk factors for abnormal of metabolism of glucose and lipid of polycystic ovary syndrome patients ( P<0.05). The correlation analysis showed that miR-222 expression had positive correlation with TC, TG, LDL-C, FINS, HOMA-IR ( r = 0.760, 0.737, 0.769, 0.749, 0.825, P<0.05), and had negative correlation with HDL-C( r = -0.743, P<0.05). Conclusions:The serum miR-222 shows abnormal increase in the PCOS patients, and is closely related to glucose and lipid metabolism. It can be used as a biomarker of abnormal glucose and lipid metabolism.
