A total of 40 patients with COPD (excluding those with correlated/relevant diseases)were measured for inflammation parameters of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and c-reactive protein (CRP) after hospital admission and some coagulation/fibrinolysis parameters including D-dimer,thrombinantithrombin (TAT),prothrombin fragment 1 + 2,(tissue plasminogen activator) tPA,plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1),von Willebrand factor (von WF),endothelin receptor A,thromboxane B2,P-selectin and pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) by ultrasonic cardiography after the settling of the symptons of acute period.All patients were then divided into 2 groups according to PAP [＜ 40 mm Hg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) (n=24),＞40 mm Hg (n=16)].The values of CRP and ESRin the group with PAP ＞ 40 mm Hg were significantly higher than those in another group (P =0.044 and P =0.002respectively) while tPA was lower (P =0.04).A moderate positive correlation existed between tPA and TXB2 (r =0.547).Moreover,a highly positive correlation was found between TXB2 and PAl-1 (r =0.929).The results indicated that the COPD patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) tend to have a higher level of inflammation,and their fibrinolysis becomes impaired leading to a prothrombotic state.

Objective: To study the relationship between C-reactive protein (CRP) gene polymorphisms and the risk of chronic peri-odontitis and severe chronic periodontitis (CP) with type2 diabetes to confirm the effect of genetic factor in chronic periodontitis and chronic periodontitis with type2 diabetes. Methods; DNA was extracted by Chelex-100 from buccal swabs of patients who suffered from chronic periodontitis or chronic periodontitis with type2 diabetes and patients with healthy periodontium. PCR-RFLP was used to test the CRP genotype distribution. The correlationship between the incidence of chronic periodontitis and chronic periodontitis with type2 diabetes and CRP gene polymorphism was analyzed statistically. Results; There was no statistical difference in the distribution of CPR +1059 genotype and allele frequency between experiment group and control group (X~2 = 0. 223, P=0.994). The genotype and allele frequency distribution were in line with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Conclusion; There is no correlation between CRP + 1059G/C single nucleotide polymorphisms and the susceptibility of chronic periodontitis as well as chronic periodontitis with type2 diabetes.

In order to probe the biological function of O-GlcNAc and the pathogenesis of associated diseases, it is essential to prepare a potent and specific O-GlcNAcase (OGA) antibody. Based on protein sequence analysis, we found N terminal 1-350 amino acids of OGA (sOGA) has high antigenicity and hydrophilicity and then constructed it into plasmid pET28a vector. First, we optimized the expression of sOGA in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) (0.05 mmol/L IPTG, 10 hours) and purified it with the Ni-NTA affinity chromatography and size exclusion chromatography respectively. SDS-PAGE verified the molecular weight (45 kDa) and the purity (>95%) of sOGA and the purified protein was subjected to immunize New Zealand rabbits. Finally, we obtained OGA polyclonal antibody by affinity purifying the antiserum with CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B beads. Western blotting and ELISA assay showed that this antibody could recognize three OGA isoforms with high specificity and the sensitivity was 0.11 ng/mL (the titer was 1:80 000). These results indicated the prepared polyclonal antibody of OGA can be used for the biological function study of OGA.

Nasal high flow oxygen therapy (HFNC), an open nasal catheter system conveying heated and humidified air or oxygen, has been used to treat hypoxemic respiratory failure. At present, some researches indicated that HFNC can be applied for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with hypercapnia, which attenuates the retention of carbon dioxide by positive end-expiratory pressure effect, washing out anatomical dead space and reducing work of breath. HFNC is proved to decrease respiratory frequency, increase alveolar ventilation and end-expiratory lung volume, and its therapeutic effect is similar to non-invasive ventilation. Application of HFNC managed to be optimized in a way of increasing the flow rate in a single prong and mouth-closed breathing. This article summarizes the application of HFNC in COPD with hypercapnia.

Objective To analyze the difference among the 3 guidehnes used to make surgical decision for branch duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (BD-IPMN),then the guidelines were combined with neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) respectively for further analysis.Methods Clinical data of 51 appropriate BD-IPMN patients who underwent surgical resection from January 2008 to December 2015 was retrospectively analyzed.Results The significant difference was exist in the consensus for followup criterion (P ＜ 0.05).The preoperative NLR and PLR were helpful for the differential diagnosis between malignant and benign BD-IPMN,because the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) of NLR and PLR for prediction were 0.686 and 0.692,and the best boundary values were 2.64,92.56 respectively.The consensus combined with PLR could improve the specificity and positive predictive value (PPV),besides,the specificity and PPV could achieve 70.3％,54.2％ respectively while the sensitivity (92.9％) still remained at an ideal level after international consensus guideline combined with PLR.Conclusions NLR ≥ 2.64 and PLR ≥ 92.56 were predictive markers for the presence of BD-IPMN associated invasive tumor.The addition of PLR as a criterion to the international consensus guideline improved the accuracy of international consensus guidelines in estimating invasive BD-IPMN.

Objective To investigate the cytidine triphosphate synthetase 1 (CTPS1) expression in pancreatic cancer cell lines and its impaction on prognosis.Methods The GEO profiles database was searched to collect clinical data of 39 patients of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.Kaplan-Meier curve was used to analyze the relationship between the patients' prognosis and the expression of CTPS1.qPCR and Western blot were applied to detect the expression of CTPS1 in 4 pancreatic cancer cell lines.Results The mRNA expression of CTPS1 in Sw1990,BxPC-3,Panc1,and MIA-Capa2 was 1.00) ± 0.20,2.92±0.95,4.29±0.14,and 2.26±0.33 (t=-16.19,-11.45,-8.09,-13.12,P＜0.05) when compared to the normal pancreatic ductal epithelial cell line HPDE of 7.70 ± 0.72.The relative protein expression of CTPS1 in pancreatic cancer cell lines Sw1990,BxPC-3,Panc1,and MIA-Capa2 was 0.40 ± 0.06,0.20±0.09,0.68±0.11,and0.48±0.06 (t=-8.97,-10.5,-4.39,-7.88,P＜0.05) when compared to HPDE of 1.09 ±0.12.The overall survival (OS) in patients with higher CTPS1 expression than adjacent tissue was 28 months (95％ CI:9.2-46.8 months),and that with lower CTPS1 expression was 13 months (95％ CI:8.2-17.8 month),(x2 =4.02,P＜0.05).Conclusions CTPS1 in the pancreatic cancer cell lines are of low expression,and the level is positively related to patients' survival time.
