Objective To discuss the correlation between serum uric acid (SUA) level and the severity of coronary borderline lesions in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and the prognosis of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods The 192 patients who were diagnosed as coronary borderline lesions in ACS and PCI were measured.All Patients were divided into two groups:hyperuricemia group and normal SUA group.The severity of coronary arterial lesions and flow in PCI was compared.The cardiac function changes and incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were recorded.Results The results of correlation analysis showed the positive correlation of SUA level and Gensini score (r =0.710,P < 0.05).Patients with hyperuricemia group had a significantly higher prevalence of no-reflow on angiography,in-hospital and six-month prevalence of MACEs compared with the normal SUA group (P < 0.05).The UA on admission has an independent association with coronary slow flow following primary PCI and in-hospital MACEs among patients with ACS (P < 0.05).Conclusion The patients has higher the level of SUA of ACS borderline lesions patients will has more serious the coronary arterial lesions.The risk of coronary slow flow increased in the patients complicated with hyperuricemia who underwent PCI.

Objective To investigate the correlation between circulating uncoupling protein 2(UCP2) level and severity of coronary artery disease(including Gensini score and criminal vessel counts)in patients with stable coronary artery disease(SCAD),and to analyze the predictive value of circulating UCP2 and urine acid (UA)for SCAD. Methods Three hundred and thirty patients from June 2015 to June 2017 were enrolled. Two hundred and forty patients with SCAD(SCAD group),90 patients without coronary artery disease(control group) were diagnosed. The circulating UCP2 level was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) sandwich method. Results The levels of circulating UCP2 and UA in SCAD group were higher than those in the control group(UCP2[1.60(0.67,4.60)ng/mL]vs.[0.42(0.28,0.59)ng/mL](P<0.01),UA[(365.74 ± 66.06) μmol/L] vs. [(268.11 ± 45.81)μmol/L],P < 0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that UCP2 (OR = 1.010 ,95% CI :1.001 ~ 1.020 ,P = 0.025)and UA(OR = 1.039 ,95% CI :1.007 ~ 1.072 ,P < 0.05)were independently associated with SCAD. Correlation analysis showed that the circulating UCP2 level was positively correlated with Gensini score(r=0.780,P<0.01)and criminal vessel counts(r=0.543,P<0.01). The receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)showed that the optimal cutoff point of the circulating UCP2 level predicting SCAD was 0.64 ng/mL,and the sensitivity was 0.833 and the specificity was 0.944. No significant difference was observed in area under the curve between circulating UCP2 and UA(ΔAUC). Conclusion The high circulating UCP2 level indicates more severe coronary lesions in patients with SCAD. Circulating UCP2 level may be a new indicator of predicting SCAD,equal to the traditional oxidative stress related indicator of serum UA.

Objective:To explore the indications and effect of surgical treatment of autoimmune pancreatitis.Methods:Clinical data of these 15 patients with autoimmune pancreatitis diagnosed and treated at the Department of General Surgery, the First Hospital of Peking University from 2010 to 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The main clinical symptoms were obstructive jaundice, abdominal pain, distension and weight loss. The diagnosis of AIP was confirmed by EUS-FNA in 6 patients,among them, 4 did not relapse after oral hormone treatment, 2 did not receive relevant treatment, and 1 developed gastric cancer one year later. Under a suspicion of malignancy, 9 patients underwent surgical laparotomy ,and the diagnosis was established by pathology. There was no recurrence after oral hormone therapy in 1 patient who underwent laparotomy and pancreatic biopsy. One out of the 3 patients with choledochojejunostomy relapsed after 3 years. Of the 5 patients who underwent pancreatectomy, 4 had no obvious recurrence, and 1 had recurrence after 3 years.Conclusions:Untypical autoimmune pancreatitis is likely to be misdiagnosed as pancreatic cancer. For patients with suspicious malignancy, operational management and biopsy may benefit.

Objective To investigate the effect of Salvianolic Acid B(Sal B)on vascular function of db/db mice and reveal the potential mechanism. Methods 20 male db/db mice were divided into 2 groups,the con-trol group(n=10)and Sal B group(n=10). 10 age-matched male C57BL/KsJ mice were used as the wild type control. Mice in Sal B group were given Sal B ,100 mg/(kg · d)by tube. Mice in db/db control group and in wild type control were given the same volume of saline. Body weight,tail blood pressure,heart rate and fasting blood glucose level were measured every week. After 6-weeks treatment ,thoracic aorta was obtained and used to detect the levels ofsuperoxide anion and NO,vascular function,eNOS,p-eNOS,AMPK and p-AMPK. Results Sal B could reduce the body weight and fasting blood glucose level of db/db mice ,but had no effect on blood pressure. Sal B could decrease the level of superoxide inon,increased NO level,and improved endothelium-dependent but not endothelium- independent diastolic function. Sal B could increase phosphorylation levels of eNOS and AMPK. Conclusion Sal B can reduce the oxidative stress ,increases NO level in vasculature ,and improves the endo-thelium-dependent vasodilation in the diabetic mice ,which may be associated with the promotion of AMPK phos-phorylation.

Traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage commonly presents in traumatic brain injury patients, and it may lead to complications such as meningitis, ventriculitis, brain abscess, subdural hematoma or tension pneumocephalus. When misdiagnosed or inappropriately treated, traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage may result in severe complications and may be life-threatening. Some traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage has concealed manifestations and is prone to misdiagnosis. Due to different sites and mechanisms of trauma and degree of cerebrospinal fluid leak, treatments for traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage varies greatly. Hence, the Craniocerebral Trauma Professional Group of Neurosurgery Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Neurological Injury Professional Group of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate the " Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage in adults ( version 2023)" based on existing clinical evidence and experience. The consensus consisted of 16 recommendations, covering the leakage diagnosis, localization, treatments, and intracranial infection prevention, so as to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage and improve the overall prognosis of the patients.
