BACKROUND:Previous studies have confirmed that radiofrequency ablation(RFA)has not only efficiently killed tumor cells,but also improved immune suppression of organism.Antigen presenting cells play an important role during anti-tumor immune reaction.Dendritic cells are most powerful antigen presenting cells.OBJECTIVE:To study the influence of RFA on OX-62,OX-6 and CD86 expression of rat peripheral blood mononuclear cells.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:The randomized controlled animal observation was performed at the School of Oncology of Peking University from June 2005 to March 2006.MATERIALS:A total of 12 Sprague Dawley rats were equally and randomly assigned into control and 1 -week radiofrequency groups.METHODS:2 mL peripheral blood was extracted from rats of the control group following rats were sacrificed.The left lobe of rat liver was exposed,inserted with acicular electrodes at tilted position.The acicular electrodes were spread out.The action time was 4 minutes.After RFA,the rats were given anti-infective therapy.2 mL peripheral blood was taken out after they were put to death 1 week after RFA.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:The following parameters were measured:pathomorphological observation on the liver of normal rats after RFA;OX-62,OX-6 and CD86 expression of peripheral blood mononuclear cells before and after RFA.RESULTS:Pathologyical examination after RFA showed the characteristic that coagulation necrosis and cellular degeneration and granulation tissue forming appeared from target center to peripheral of the target.Positive expression rate of OX-62 in rat peripheral blood in the 1-week radiofrequency group[(0.70±0.16)%]was significantly higher than in the control group [(0.34±0.08)%,P <0.05].No significant difference in positive expression rate of OX-6 and CD86 in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells between both groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:RFA can promote the increased number of precursor Dendritic cells in rat peripheral blood,which may be contributed to improve the ability to angtigen presentation during immune response.Dai Wei-de,Doctor,Associate chief physician,Department of Ultrasound,Beijing Hospital of Ministry of Public Health,Beijing 100730,China dai.weide@126.com

Objective To investigate the correlation of plasma N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) level with echocardiographic indicators and P wave terminal force of lead V 1 (PtfV1) in the patients with hypertension and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation(PAF) .Methods Fifty‐six outpatients and inpatients with hypertension were divided into the PAF group (n=26) and the sinusrhythm group (n=30) .Thirty age‐matched and gender‐matched healthy volunteers were taken as the control group . The plasma NT‐proBNP level was determined .Left ventricular enddiastolic diameter (LVEDD) ,left atrial diameter(LAD) and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) were examined by echocardiography .the 12‐lead electrocardiogram was routinely performed Pt‐fV1 was calculated .Results The plasma NT‐proBNP level in the PAF group was higher than that in the sinusrhythm group and the control group ,the difference was statistically significant (P<0 .05) .The plasma NT‐proBNP level in the PAF group was de‐creased significantly after successful cardioversion .The plasma NT‐proBNP level in the PAF group was positively correlated with LVEDD(r=0 .543 ,P<0 .05) and LAD (r=0 .606 ,P<0 .01) .The plasma NT‐proBNP level was negatively correlated with LVEF (r= -0 .750 ,P<0 .01) and positively correlated with the PtfV 1 absolute value (r= 0 .513 ,P< 0 .01) .Conclusion The plasma NT‐proBNP level can better reflect the heart structure and function in the patients with atrial fibrillation .Detecting the plasma NT‐proBNP level combined with echocardiographic indicators and PtfV 1 is conducive to comprehensively assess the heart function in the patients with hypertension and PAF .

Objective: To propose reasonable suggestions to promote the standardization of clinical studies by reviewing the systematic reviews and meta-analyses of acupuncture-moxibustion treatment of essential hypertension (EH). Methods: Computer retrieval was conducted through Excerpta Medica Database (EMBASE), PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chongqing VIP Database (CQVIP), China Biology Medicine Disc (CBM), and Wanfang Academic Journal Full-text Database (Wanfang) to collect systematic reviews and meta-analyses relevant to treating EH with acupuncture-moxibustion therapy. The time range was from the database's inception till July, 2020. The studies were screened based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria and then data-extracted. The study's quality and evidence ratings were performed by referring to the preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis (PRISMA), a measurement tool to assess systematic reviews 2 (AMSTAR 2), and the grading of recommendations, assessment, development, and evaluation (GRADE). Results: A total of 14 studies, 10 in Chinese and 4 in English, published between 2012 and 2019, were included, involving 70 outcome measures. The methodological quality was rated as critically low, the reporting was relatively complete or had certain flaws, and the evidence strength was rated as low or very low. Conclusion: Regarding the acupuncture-moxibustion treatment of EH, the methodological quality and outcome measure evidence of existing systematic reviews and meta-analyses are relatively low, and the reporting quality also expects further improvements.

Objective:To investigate the effect of multicomponent training on nutritional status and muscle function in older adults with frailty syndrome.Methods:A total of 120 elderly patients with frailty syndrome of Elderly Diagnosis and Treatment and Physical Examination Center,Jiangsu Provincial People′s Hospital from June 2018 to December 2019 were randomly divided into observation group and control group, each contained 60 cases. The control group received routine nursing care. On the basis of these, the observation group was given multicomponent training. The nutritional status, frailty status and muscle function were compared between two groups before and after 12 weeks of intervention.Results:Before intervention, there was no significant difference in the nutritional status, degree of frailty and muscle function between the two groups ( P>0.05). After intervention, the protein, skeletal muscle and total plasma protein, serum albumin, serum prealbumin and transferrin were (7.55 ± 1.34) kg, (21.37 ± 2.41) kg, (61.97 ± 5.69) g/L, (229.05 ± 17.67)mg/L, (42.14 ± 4.83) g/L, (2 364.29 ± 296.31) mg/L in the observation group, significantly higher than those in the control group (6.92 ± 0.97) kg, (20.31 ± 2.04) kg, (57.96 ± 5.22) g/L, (210.15 ± 27.99) mg/L, (37.66 ± 5.75) g/L, (2 247.42 ± 267.39) mg/L, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.19-4.47, P<0.05). After intervention, the scores of physical, psychological and total frailty were 6.03 ± 0.71, 2.46 ± 0.73, 9.63 ± 0.99 in the observation group, significantly higher than in the control group (6.45 ± 0.95) pionts, (2.71 ± 0.52) pionts, (10.34 ± 1.20) pionts, the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.67, 2.02, 3.39, P<0.05). After intervention, the side-by-side, full-tandem, 4-m walk, repeated chair stands scores and total Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) scores were (0.87 ± 0.28) pionts, (1.65 ± 0.29) pionts, (2.09 ± 0.47) pionts, (1.93 ± 0.49) pionts, (7.36 ± 0.75) pionts, those socres were (0.72 ± 0.31) pionts, (1.50 ± 0.31) pionts, (1.87 ± 0.61) pionts, (1.70 ± 0.62) pionts, (6.55 ± 0.89) pionts in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.16-5.18, P<0.05). Conclusions:Multicomponent training can improve the nutritional status and muscle function and delay the progress of frailty in elderly in elderly patients.
