AIM: To explore whether necroptosis contributes to the high glucose (HG)-induced damage in hu-man umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).METHODS: The protein levels of receptor-interacting protein 3 (RIP3) and cleaved caspase-3 were detected by Western blot.The intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were deter-mined by DCFH-DA staining followed by photofluorography.Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) was measured by rhodamine 123 staining followed by photofluorography.RESULTS: Treatment of HUVECs with HG at different concentra-tions (10, 20 and 40 mmol/L glucose) for 24 h gradually enhanced the expression levels of RIP3.Treatment of HUVECs with HG (40 mmol/L glucose) for different time (3 h, 6 h, 9 h, 12 h and 24 h) also up-regulated the expression levels of RIP3, peaking at 9 h.Pretreatment of HUVECs with 20 μmol/L Z-VAD-FMK (an inhibitor of caspase) for 30 min before exposure to HG enhanced the expression level of RIP3.Pretreatment of HUVECs with 100 μmol/L necrostatin-1 (an inhi-bitor of necroptosis) for 1 h before exposure to HG alleviated the HG-induced injuries, such as a decrease in cell viability, an increase in ROS generation and dissipation of MMP, but up-regulated the protein level of cleaved caspase-3.CON-
CLUSION: Necroptosis mediates HG-induced injury in HUVECs.There is a negative interacting between necroptosis and apoptosis.

ObjectiveTo explore the surgical techniques and clinical experiences in treating thoracoabdominal aorta dissecting aneurysm following Sun's procedure.MethodsFrom June 2009 to May 2011,thoracoabdominal aorta replacement was performed in thirteen patients with thoracoabdominal aorta dissecting aneurysm following Sun's procedure in Beijing Anzhen Hospital.Among which,eleven were male,and two were female with a mean age 39.3 years (28 -58 years).All cases were Stanford A aortic dissection,and were underwent Sun's Procedure.The pathogeny of the dissection,ten were Marfan's syndrome,and three were hypertension.Thoracoabdominal aorta dissecting aneurysms were all Crawford type Ⅱ,with the diameter( 5.78 ± 1.00 )cm (4.0 -8.0 cm).All the procedures were performed through combined thoracoabdominal incision via the retroperitoneal approach.And thoracoabdominal aorta was replaced by a tetrafurcate graft with short-time interval circulatory arrest.24 - 30 mm tetrafurcate grafts were selected in all patients.The main graft of the tetrafurcate graft was anastomosed to the elephant truck stent graft.Visceral arteries were joined into a patch and were anastomosed to the other end of the main graft.T6 to T12 intercostal arteries were reconstructed by an 8 mm sidearm.Another 8 mm sidearm was anastomosed to the left renal artery.Both 10 mm sidearms were anastomosed to iliac arteries.Among which,seven were underwent by profound hypothermia with circulatory arrest,and six were underwent off pump with normal temperature.ResultsNo early death.Twelve patients were cured and discharged from hospital.Seven patients were underwent profound hypothermia with circulatory arrest.Among which,one patient had paraplegia,sepsis,pseudomembranous colitis,respiratory failure,and died on 102-day after operation.Another one patient had neurological dysfunction and was cured after six-day's dehydrated treatment.The UFCT showed that the tetrafurcate graft was unobstructed,no distortion,no pseudoaneurysms in all patients.The branch to intercostal arteries was obstructed in three cases,but there were no spinal cord ischemia complications.The mean duration of follow-up was (9.6 ±2.1 ) months (range,1 -24 months),with a follow-up rate of 100％.All the tetrafurcate graft were very well,no obstruction,no distortion and no pseudoaneurysms.There were no cerebral,spiral cord and abdominal viscera ischemia complications in all patients.ConclusionThoracoabdominal aorta replacement after Sun's procedure is simple,and it is helpful to reduce complications.Following Sun's procedure,using tetrafurcate graft with short-time interval circulatory arrest and off pump technique in thoracoabdominal aorta replacement is simple,and it is helpful to reduce complications.

Objective? To explore the correlation among muscle strength, muscle mass, muscle function and cognitive function of old people in a community in Beijing. Methods? From April 2018 to October 2018, we selected 192 elderly people aged 60 or over in a community in Beijing. Muscle strength was evaluated with the CAMRY electronic handgrip strength instrument EH101; mass of limb skeletal muscle was measured with body fat scale to calculate the relative skeletal muscle index (RSMI) of limbs; muscle function was measured with the 4-m walk test; cognitive function was assessed with the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). SPSS 20.0 was used to data statistics. Results? Among 192 subjects, the incidences of mild and medium cognitive impairment were 65.62%(126/192) and 12.50%(24/192) respectively. Spearman correlation analysis showed that muscle strength, muscle mass and muscle function had correlations with cognitive function with statistical differences (r=0.384, 0.215, 0.458;P＜ 0.05). Muscle strength and muscle mass had strong statistical correlations with attention of cognition (r=0.319, 0.229;P＜ 0.05). Muscle function had strong statistical correlation with linguistic competence (r=0.392, P＜0.05). Muscle strength, muscle mass and muscle function all had correlations with attention as well as linguistic competence with statistical differences (P＜0.05). Taking whether cognitive function was normal or not as dependent variable, Logistic regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of cognitive function were ages, body mass index (BMI), body fat rate and RSMI. Conclusions? Muscle strength, muscle mass and muscle function had positive correlations with cognitive function among elderly people.
