The obese children are increasing at a surprisingly high annual rate of 9.1 percent in China.Meanwhile children are lack of health consciousness and self-protection,thus obese children are more vulnerable towards obesity.Since parents are responsible for their children's daily lives and behaviors,the health education of obesity should be started with those parents with obese children.This paper calls to carry out health education aimed at parents of obese children through multiple means such as community health services,taking advantage of public media and establishing specific clubs,in order to effectively control the increase of obese children.

Objective To study the effects of diabetes mellitus(DM)on fas receptor-induced cardiomyocytes apoptosis and inflammatory response in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods 70 patients with ST-elevated myocardial infarction were divided into two groups:without(n=36)and with diabetes mellitus(n=34).Strepavidin-biotin ELISA was used to examine the serum levels of sFas,sFasL,TNF-? and IL-6.Results As the concentrations of sFas and sFasL immediately after primary PCI were higher in patients of AMI with DM than without DM(4.18?0.86 vs 3.30?0.82 ng/ml,6.15?1.56 vs 4.34?1.37 ng/ml,respectively,P

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Qingzhuo Qudu Pills combined with acupuncture in treating chronic nonbacterial prostatitis and to explore the possible molecular mechanism. Methods A total of 160 cases of chronic nonbacterial prostatitis were randomly divided into western medicine group, Chinese medicine group, acupuncture group and combined group, 40 cases in each group. The western medicine group was given Tamsulosin and Celecoxib tablets orally, Chinese medicine group was given Qingzhuo Qudu Pills, acupuncture group were given acupuncture, and the combined group were given Qingzhuo Qudu Pills plus acupuncture. Treatment period covered 30 days. Before and after treatment, the clinical efficiency of the four groups was assessed by the US National Institutes of Health chronic prostatitis symptom index ( NIH-CPSI) scores, and routine prostatic fluid examiantion and drug safety assessment were also carried out. Results ( 1) The total effective rate was 69.23%, 84.62%, 74.36% and 92.50% in the western medicine group, Chinese medicine group, acupuncture group and combined group, respectively; the combined group had the best clinical efficiency ( P<0.05) , and then came Chinese medicine group ( P<0.05) , but the difference between acupuncture group and western medicine group was insignificant (P>0.05). (2) After treatment, the total scores and scores of each item of NIH-CPSI were decreased in the four groups ( P<0.05 compared with those before treatment) , and the improvement of general symptoms, the quality of life, pain and urination in the combined group was superior to that in the other 3 groups ( P<0.05) . ( 3) After treatment, levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) were decreased to various degrees (P<0.05 or P<0.01 compared with those before treatment), and the decrease in the combined group was superior to that in the other 3 groups (P<0.05). (4) The blood, urine and stool routine examination, electrocardiography, hepatic and renal function of the 4 groups stayed normal before and after treatment, and no adverse reaction was present in the 160 cases. Conclusion Qingzhuo Qudu Pills combined with acupuncture is safe and effective in treating chronic non-bacterial prostatitis through relieving symptoms and reducing the degrees of prostatitis. Cytokines may play an important role in the pathogenesis and treatment of chronic prostatitis.

Objective To analyze the ecological environmental differences of hibernation hole and temporary hole of Himalayan marmot based on global positioning system (GPS),remote sensing (RS) and geographical information system (GIS) in Yushu City,Qinghai Province.Methods Hibernation holes and temporary holes were located based on GPS.Ecological environment factors related with Himalayan marmot,such as land surface temperature (LST),digital elevation model (DEM),normalized different vegetation index (NDVI),were extracted based on RS and GIS.The ecological environment differences between hibernation hole and temporary hole were explored based on epidemiological statistical method.Results Monthly LST (degree Kelvin,K) of hibernation hole was slightly higher than that of temporary hole in the same period.Yearly day LST of hibernation hole was 1.1 K higher than that of temporary hole in the same period.Yearly night LST of hibernation hole was 0.3 K higher than that of temporary hole in the same period.Monthly NDVI of temporary hole was slightly higher than that of hibernation hole in the same period.Yearly NDVI of temporary hole was 0.001 higher than that of hibernation hole in the same period.DEM of temporary hole was about 40 m higher than that of hibernation hole.The top two ratios of soil type factors were both alpine meadow soil and dark felty soil for hibernation hole and temporary hole,which were 62.1％ and 29.3％,64.4％ and 25.6％.The top two ratios of land cover factors were both rainfed cropland and mosaic cropland for hibernation hole and temporary hole,which were 43.3％ and 25.8％,40.0％ and 26.2％.Conclusions Soil type factors and land cover factors for hibernation hole and temporary hole are similar.Lower DEM and higher LST are chose for hibernation hole,and better NDVI is chose for temporary hole,which is good for food intake.

Objective To investigate the role of microRNA-490-5p (miR-490-5p) in the regulation of visceral sensitivity in rats with intestinal dysfunction.Methods The lentivirus vector system was used to construct the rno-miRNA-490-5p lentivirus expression vector.The rats were divided into normal group,diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) group,lentivirus empty vector group and the siRNA silent group and the latter three groups were model groups.The efficiency of siRNA was measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR).The rats were gavaged with 10％ India ink,and then the time of first black stool,water content of feces and threshold of expansion capacity caused abdominal elevation or back arching were calculated.The visceral sensitivity of rats after miRNA-490-5p silenced was evaluated with abdominal withdrawal reflex (AWR) score by stimulating with different intensities of colonic dilatation.The abdominal electrical activity of rats stimulated by colonic distension was measured by BL-420F biological and functional experimental system.The change of the tension of rats isolated colon intestinal stimulated with acetylcholine chloride was also detected by BL-420F biological and functional experimental system.T test was used to compare the differences between the model groups and the normal group.One way analysis of variance was performed for multi-group comparison after miRNA-490-5p interfered.For comparison between two groups among multiple groups,least significant difference (LSD) method was used when the variance was equal,and Games-Howell method was used when the variance was unequal.Results The gastrointestinal propulsion time and the threshold of expansion capacity caused abdominal elevation or back arching of model groups were both lower than those of the normal group ((8.54±4.07) hvs (12.33±2.23) h,(0.56±0.08) mL vs (0.84±0.09) mL),and the differences were statistically significant (t =2.62 and 6.37,both P ＜ 0.05).After distension with 0.8 mL and 1.2 mL sodium chloride solution,the AWR scores of model groups were significantly higher than those of the normal group (3.20±0.56 vs 1.20±0.45,3.73±0.46 vs 2.60±0.55),and the differences were statistically significant (t=7.20 and 4.58,both P＜0.01).There was no significant difference in AWR score between the model groups and the normal group when distended with 1.6 mL sodium chloride solution (3.93 ±0.26 vs 3.80 ± 0.45) (P＞0.05).After miRNA-490-5p silenced,gastrointestinal propulsion time of normal group,IBS-D group,lentivirus empty vector group and the siRNA silent group was (11.12±1.01) h,(6.23±3.17) h,(6.09 ± 2.26) h and (12.36±1.97) h,and the differences among four groups were statistically significant (F=10.55,P＜0.01).The abdominal electrical activity of normal group,IBS-D group,lentivirus empty vector group and the siRNA silent group distension stimulated with 0.8 mL and 1.2 mL sodium chloride solution was (64.91 ± 10.50),(101.79 ±11.73),(80.49±1.27),(66.92±3.24) μV,and (105.09±52.40),(131.71± 16.74),(111.00±6.41) and (95.49± 4.2) μV,and the differences among four groups were statistically significant (F=16.82 and 9.14,both P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in abdominal electrical activity amplitude between silenced group and normal group ((66.92±3.24) μV vs (64.91±10.49) μV and (95.49±4.22) μV vs (105.09±2.40) μV) (all P＞ 0.05).After distension with 1.6 mL sodium chloride solution,the abdominal electrical activity amplitudeof silenced group was lower than the other groups,and the differences were statistically significant (F=11.09,P＜0.01).After adding 1∶1 000 acetylcholine chloride added,the tension of colon of normal group,IBS-D group,lentivirus empty vector group and the siRNA silent group increased by 0.71 ± 0.21,0.81±0.06,0.88±0.21 and 0.43±0.07,however there was no significant difference among the four groups (F=2.57,P =0.100).Conclusions Visceral hypersensitivity existed in rats with intestinal dysfunction.miRNA-490-5p may be involved in the regulation of visceral sensitivity.

Objective To studythe role of p16 and cyclin in the genesis and development of endometrial car-cinoma. Methods 12 cases of normal endometrium, 22 cases of proliferative endometrium and 41 cases of endome- trial carcinoma were detected for the expression of p16 and cyclin D1 by means of immunohistochemical S-P. Results In normal endometrium p16 was expressed while cyclm D1was almost negative in the proliferative phase, but both of them were negative in the secretory phase. Among the groups of the simple and compound hyperplasia, the atypical hyperplasia and the endometrial carcinoma,the expression of p16 showed a descending tendency, while the expression of cyclin showed an ascending tendency. In endometrial carcinomas the expression of p16 was significantly lower than that of normal endometrium and proliferative endometrium (P<0. 01 ,P<0.05). However, the expression of cy- clin in proliferate endometrium and endometrial carcinoma was significantly higher than that in normal endometri- un (P<0. 05,P<0. 01). The overexpression of cyclin D1 in the atypical hyperplasia group was obviously different from that in the simple and compound hyperplasia group (P＜0.01). In endometrial carcinoma,the expression of p16 was decreasing with the descending of cell differentiate degree, on the opposite, the expression of cyclin was in-creased and there existed a negative correlation between them. It was also observed that the overexpression of cyclin was significant different between and ( P ＜0. 01 ). Conclusionp1 6 is a negative regulating factor of cell cycle in endometrial carcinoma, while cyclin is a positive one. Both of them are important in the genesis and devel-opment of endometrial carcinoma. The Iow expression of p1 6 and the overexpression of cyclin are related with the malicious biological behaviors of endometrial carcinoma and maybe play an important role in the judgement of prog- nosis. Overexpression of cyclin may be an earlier molecular event in the genesis of endometrial carcinoma.

Objective To detect the levels of IL-1, IL-6,TNF-αand IFN-γin serum and colon tissue of rat mod-els of ulcerative colitis with spleen and kidney Yang deficiency, and to explore their roles in the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis ( UC) .Methods The rat model of ulcerative colitis with Yang deficiency of spleen and kidney was induced by perfusion of rhubarb decoction plus intramuscular injection of hydrocortisone and combined with TNBS (2,4,6-trinitro-benzenesulfonic acid) and ethanol enema.Sixty SPF wistar rats ( body weight 180 ±10 g, male:female=1:1) were ran-domly divided into blank control group, UC model with spleen kidney Yang deficiency for 7 days, 14 days and 21 days groups, respectively.The levels of IL-1, IL-6, TNF-αand IFN-γin serum and colon tissue were detected by ELISA.Re-sults Compared with the blank group, the levels of IL-1, IL-6, TNF-αand IFN-γin serum and colon tissue of rat UC model group with spleen kidney Yang deficiency were greatly increased (P<0.05), especially evidently increased in the model group at 21 days.Conclusions The pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1, IL-6, TNF-αand IFN-γplay an important role in the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis with syndrome of spleen and kidney Yang deficiency.

AIM:To investigate the effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist exendin-4 on white adipose tissue (WAT) and the underlying mechanisms.METHODS:Male C57BL/6J mice (8 weeks) were chal-lenged by high-fat diet for 12 weeks, and were randomly divided into saline group and exendin-4 group.The mRNA expres-sion of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), TNF-αand adiponectin of WAT was detected by real-time PCR.3T3-L1 adipocytes or mouse embryonic fibroblasts cells were treated with exendin-4 for 24 h.The protein levels of SIRT1, ATGL and hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) were determined by Western blot.RESULTS:Exendin-4 significantly decreased epididymal fat weight, fasting blood glucose and serum triglyceride levels ( P<0.05) , and reduced body weight and serum TNF-αlevel.The mRNA expression of SIRT1, ATGL and adiponectin in WAT was all significantly up-regulated by exendin-4, which were contrary to the down-regulation of TNF-αmRNA expression (P<0.05).Exendin-4 promoted the protein expression of SIRT1, ATGL, and HSL in 3T3-L1 adipocytes in a dose-dependent manner.Less lipid droplets with up-regulation of lipolytic protein expression were observed when combined with SIRT1 agonist treatment, which were suppressed by SIRT1 inhibitor.Deletion of SIRT1 led to larger adipocytes with more lipid droplets, and the effect of ex-endin-4 on the lipolysis disappeared when SIRT1 was deficient.CONCLUSION:Exendin-4 promotes lipolysis in WAT of obese mice via activation of SIRT1.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in detecting small liver metastasis (SLM) from breast cancer. Methods A total of 92 cases diagnosed as breast cancer by surgical pathology and suspected SLM by conventional ultrasonography were included in this study. CEUS was used to check liver lesion in patients. The biopsy operation was used as the gold standard. The coincidence rate of benign and malignant pathology was used to compare the consistency between CEUS and biopsy pathology. Results In 92 cases suspected liver metastases of breast cancer by routine ultrasound, there were 54 cases were diagnosed as benign by pathology, and all 92 cases were diagnosed as benign by CEUS. Thirty-eight cases were diagnosed as metastasis by pathology, in which 36 cases were correctly diagnosed by CEUS. The sensitivity of CEUS for the diagnosis of liver metastases of breast cancer was 94.74%(36/38), specificity was 100%(54/54), positive predictive value (PPV) was 100%(36/36) and negative predictive value (NPV) was 96.43%(54/56). Conclusion CEUS has a higher diagnostic value in SLM of breast cancer, and has clinical practical value.

AIM: To look for harmfulless anti-leukemia drug with selective high performance, lethal effect of small hairpin RNA (shRNA) on VEGFR2 gene expression of tumor cell line HL60 in vitro.METHODS: The most effective VEGFR2 siRNA was designed and screened. The shRNA oligo was designed and pU6/VEGFR2 entry clone was constructed. HL60 was transfected transiently and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2(VEGFR2) expression was tested with MTT assay, RT-PCR and Western blotting. The expression clone was constructed and cotransfected with ViraPowerTM Packaging Mix into 293FTTM cells to produce Lentiviral vectors harboring Lenti6/shVEGFR2. The virion supernatant was added into HL60 cells and VEGFR2 gene inhibitory effect was determined. RESULTS: The inhibitory rates of VEGFR2 siRNA c were high. VEGFR2 expression in HL60 was inhibited by using pU6/VEGFR2 entry clone constructed with shRNA and pENTRTM/U6. For HL60 cells, the inhibitory rate was 84.9%. The expression of VEGFR2 mRNA and protein decreased significantly. 48 hours after transfection of pU6/shVEGFR2 entry clone and transduction of Lenti6/shVEGFR2 expression clone, the cell inhibitory rates were similar. Cell growth inhibitory rate of entry clone descended rapidly after this time point, the expression clone changed slowly, reaching the peak at 96 hours, dropped slightly, having no significance deviation. CONCLUSION: in vitro, VEGFR2 shRNA using lentiviral vector blocks VEGF/VEGFR2 self-secretion in HL60 cells, which inhibits leukemia development.
