ObjectiveTo discuss the changes in characteristics of N-glycan in gastric cancer and its relationship with TCM syndromes.Methods The blood samples of 138 gastric cancer patients and 120 healthy volunteers were collected. The changes in N-glycan were detected by DNA sequencer-assisted and fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis (DSA-FACE), and differences of N-glycan among different TCM syndromes were compared.Results At least 9 N-glycan peaks could be identified in all samples. Compared with the healthy volunteers, Peak1, Peak5, Peak9 and Peak2 of gastric cancer patients obviously increased (P<0.05,P<0.01), whereas Peak3, Peak6 significantly decreased (P<0.01). Peak6 of gastric cancer in stage I was obviously higher than stages II, III, and IV (P<0.01), while Peak9 in stage I was obviously lower than the other three stages (P<0.01). Peak1 was significantly lower in disharmony between liver and stomach type than stagnation of phlegm-dampness type, interior retention of toxin stagnation type, deficiency of both Qi and blood type (P<0.05,P<0.01);lower in impairment of yin due to stomach heat type, deficiency-cold in spleen and stomach type than deficiency of both Qi and blood type (P<0.01);lower in stagnation of phlegm-dampness type, interior retention of toxin stagnation type than deficiency of both Qi and blood type (P<0.05). Peak6 was higher in disharmony between liver and stomach type than impairment of yin due to stomach heat type, stagnation of phlegm-dampness type, interior retention of toxin stagnation type than deficiency of both Qi and blood type (P<0.01). Peak9 was much higher in deficiency of both Qi and blood type than disharmony between liver and stomach type (P<0.01), impairment of yin due to stomach heat type and deficiency-cold in spleen and stomach type (P<0.05, P<0.01).Conclusion The expression of N-glycan was specifically changed in gastric cancer. These variations could promote the metastasis of gastric cancer and potentially have certain correlation with TCM syndromes.

Objective To explore the feasibility of quantitative hemodynamics measurement of inferior vena cava (IVC) in healthy volunteers with phase-contrast sequence on 3.0 T MR system (3.0 T PC-MRI),and to evaluate the relationship between IVC lumen area,blood flow,and velocity.Methods Fifty healthy adult volunteers prospective underwent IVC PC-MRI at 3.0 T MR system.All volunteers were from our hospital for the routine chest or abdomen examinations,no heart disease and lung disease always,heart rate,blood pressure,electrocardiogram was in normal range,no abnormalities were found in clinical and abdominal imaging examinations,and IVC disease was excluded by ultrasonic examination.The area (A),mean velocity (MV),mean flux (MF),regurgitant fraction (RF) and time-flow curve of upper and middle segments of IVC during one cardiac cycle were observed.Independent samples t test was used to compare IVC lumen area and blood flow,velocity between different genders,different age groups (18 to 30 years old group,more than 30 years old group) and different phase velocity encoding value of IVC middle segment,one-way ANOVA was used to compare different phase velocity encoding value of IVC upper segment [(60,80,100)cm/s].Pearson correlation coefficient and regression equation were used to evaluate the relationships between area,blood flow,and velocity.Results Among 50 patients with successful completion of the examination,significant difference was found in A,MV,MF and RF between the different IVC segments.MF of the IVC middle segment were (37.94 ± 7.32) and (33.68 ± 6.65) ml/s in male (n =24) and female (n =26),respectively ; significant difference was found in different genders (t =2.49,P =0.017).MF of upper segment and middle segments of IVC were (54.89 ± 10.98)and (38.29 ± 7.54)ml/s in 18 to 30 years old group(n =27),while MF of upper segment and the middle of IVC were (44.96 ± 8.49) and (32.65 ± 5.59) ml/s in older than 30 years old group (n =23) with significant difference(t =3.34,2.15,P ＜ 0.01).Peak positive velocity were (55.36 ± 6.30),(61.30 ± 12.42),(62.55 ± 13.09) cnm/s in different phase velocities (60,80 and 100 cm/s),while peak negative velocity (PNV) were (42.37 ± 19.18),(32.79 ± 24.67),(24.61 ± 21.20) cm/s with significant differences (F =4.258,7.794,P ＜ 0.05).The overall image quality was good for quantitative measurement between different phase velocity encoding values of upper segment and the middle IVC (image evaluation are greater than or equal to 3,11 patients were three points,24 patients were four points,15 patients five points).The relation between the PC flow image of IVC and the cardiac cycle was sine wave,the area and the velocity of upper and middle segments of IVC was negative (r =-0.466 and-0.765,P ＜ 0.01),and no linear correlation between the area and the flow of upper and middle segments of IVC (r =0.259,0.046,P ＞ 0.05).There were slight reverse flow during systolic and diastolic cycle.Conclusion The area,flow and velocity of IVC can be rapidly,accurately and noninvasive measured with PC-MRI,and different ages,different genders and different anatomical parts of IVC had obvious hemodynamic differences.

Objective To study the protective effect of Xinfuli Granula(XG) on acute and chronic cardiac failure in cats and rats. Methods The cat models of acute cardiac failure were established by injecting pentobarbital. Then the cat models were given XG through duodenum. After medication,hemodynamics parameters such as heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP),left ventricular systolic pressure(LVSP),left ventricular end-diastolic pressure(LVEDP),+ dp/dtmax and cardiac output(CO) in cats were determined. The rats were divided randomly into 5 groups:the control group,the model group,the positive control group,and high-dose and Low-dose XG groups. The rat models of myocardial injury were induced by isoproterenol(20 mg/kg). The normal group and the model group were treated with normal saline(10 mL/kg) orally,the positive contral group were treated with cedilanid(0.2 mg/kg) by intravenous,the high-and low-dose XG groups were orally treated with XG(10 g/kg and 5 g/kg respectively),and the propranolol group was orally treated with propranolol(4 mg/kg),once a day for successive 8 days. Animals were sacrificed on the 9th day,then the heart was taken out and the cardiac index was calculated. The pathological changes in myocardial cells of the rats were observed under electron microscope. Results XG had no effect on hemodynamics of cats with acute cardiac failure,but had obvious protective and therapeutic effect on isoproterenol-inducedmyocardial injury and myocardial ischemia of rats. Conclusion Xinfuli Granula has good preventive effect on isoproterenol-induced myocardial injury and sub-acute cardiac failure of rats,but has no effect on acute cardiac failure of cats.
