ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of defibrase on hemorheology on the patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods40 patients with acute ischemic stroke were treated by defibrase and the change of hemorheology was recorded before and after the treatment respectively. ResultsThe whole blood viscosity, the blood plasma viscosity, RBC aggregate index and RBC hematocrit got reduced on different degrees.Conclusions Defibrase can reduce the blood viscosity,inhibit RBC aggregate,and improve the micro-circulation. It is helpful to recover the nerve function earlier.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the drug-resistance of ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli for guiding the clinical drug-using.METHODS The Kirby-Bauer agar diffusion method was used to analyze the drug resistance of 68 E.coli isolates in these three years.The ESBLs-producing strains were detected by confirmed test.RESULTS Thirty one ESBLs-producing strains were detected and the isolated rate was 54.4%;the resistant rates of these isolates were up to 50% to penicillin and three generations cephalosporin.The resistant rate to quinolone was about 70%.All of the strains were susceptible to imipenem.CONCLUSIONS More attention should be paid on the detection of ESBLs-producing E.coli and prevent the prevalence of the drug-resistant strains.

Osteoclasts are derived from pluripotent stem cells in bone marrow and spleen.They play a critical role in inflammation-induced bone loss and joint destruction because in the absence of them,bone de- struction does not occur even when inflammation exists.Synovioblasts in an inflamed joint can secrete numerous inflammatory factors,including tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-?)and interleukin-1(IL-1)which not only induce inflammatory reactions but also elevate osteoclast formation and function indirectly or directly through promoting RANKL expression.In this wdy the inflammatory reactions are associated with bone loss and destruction. In this article,we focus on the recent progress in study of TNF-?,IL-1 and osteoclast-target therapies in management of osteoclast-mediated inflammatory bone loss.TNF-?promotes differentiation of osteoclast precursor cells in the peripheral blood and spleen,which causes a marked increase in mature osteoclasts in a diseased joint.However, IL-I supports osteoblast survival and regulates the recombination of osteoclast cytoskeleton,which further stimulates bone resorption.Since osteoclast-target therapies may inhibit osteoclast formation and function,they are becoming more and more important for inflammation-induced bone loss and joint destruction.

Objective:To investigate the level of trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), one of gut metabolites, in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) accompanied by congestive heart failure (HF) and its influencing factors.Methods:Those patients of 18-75 years old who received three or more times of hemodialysis sessions per week for three months or longer during Nov 2018 and Mar 2019 were enrolled. Those attended health checkup at the same time without obvious kidney abnormality served as non-kidney disease controls. Serum TMAO concentrations were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-MS/MS). The levels of TMAO were compared between patients on hemodialysis and controls, between those with heart failure and without heart failure using logrithmically transformed TMAO (lnTMAO). Linear regression analysis was performed to investigate factors influencing TMAO levels.Results:A total of 195 patients undergoing MHD and 40 controls were enrolled. Among them, 30 hemodialysis cases (15.4%) manifested as heart failure symptoms and/or left ventricular ejection fraction less than 50%. Males accounted for 67.2% in patients on hemodialysis and 37.5% in controls ( χ2=12.426, P<0.001) respectively, while the median ages in both groups were 62.0(48.0, 71.0), 45.0(33.3, 55.0) years old respectively ( Z=5.685, P<0.001). TMAO concentrations were significantly higher in patients on hemodialysis than controls [5.54(3.84, 8.91) mg/L vs 0.17(0.11, 0.30) mg/L, after log transformed, t=21.687, P<0.001]. However, there was no statistically significant difference between those with heat failure and those without in male [63.3% vs 67.9%, χ2=0.238, P=0.626], age [64.5(56.8, 71.0) years old vs 61.0(47.0, 72.0) years old, Z=0.894, P=0.372] and TMAO [5.17(3.30, 9.46) mg/L vs 5.57(3.87, 8.95) mg/L, after log transformed, t=-1.537, P=0.135]. Multivariate linear regression analysis demonstrated that in all the participants, serum urea was the main risk factor for TMAO [standardized coefficient ( SB)=0.483]. lnTMAO=0.078×[serum urea(mmol/L)]+0.001×[serum creatinine (μmol/L)]-0.002×[serum uric acid (μmol/L)]-0.003×[platelet (×10 9/L)]+0.014×[age (years old)]+0.344 (if diabetic)-1.266. While in those undergoing MHD, ultrafiltration volume had the most significant effect on TMAO levels ( SB=0.279). lnTMAO=0.249×[ultrafiltration volume(L)]+0.059×[serum albumin (g/L)]+0.008×[age (years old)-0.526 (if heart failure existed)-1.865. Conclusions:MHD patients have gut dysbiosis, while those hemodialysis patients accompanied by heart failure may have peculiar gut microbiota which induces lower serum TMAO levels than those without heart failure after adjusting for multiple related factors. Serum TMAO levels may be associated with ultrafiltration volume and nutrition status etc.

10.Plasticity and metaplasticity of lateral perforant path in hippocampal dentate gyrus in a rat model of febrile seizure.
Acta Physiologica Sinica 2011;63(2):124-130
Febrile seizure (FS) is common in childhood and can impair cognitive function. The potential to exhibit plasticity at many synapses appears to be modulated by prior synaptic activity. This intriguing higher-order form of plasticity has been termed metaplasticity. Plasticity and metaplasticity have been considered to be one of the most important neurological fundaments of learning and memory. In the present study, field potential recording was carried out to detect the effects of FS on plasticity and metaplasticity in the lateral perforant path of rat hippocampus. Brain slices from rat pups of FS model were prepared and superfused. The recording electrodes were placed within the outer molecular layer for recording of lateral perforant path field excitatory postsynaptic potentials (fEPSP). Stimulation of the lateral perforant path and the dentate hilar region was carried out by placing bipolar stimulating electrodes within the outer molecular layer and hilus, respectively. The results showed that long term potentiation (LTP) of control and FS rats didn't show significant difference after 100 Hz conditioning stimulation. Subjected to 10 Hz priming stimulation applied to lateral perforant path or dentate hilar region 40 min prior to 100 Hz conditioning, the LTP of control group was inhibited, while the LTP of FS rats remained constant. Normalized fEPSP slope 1 h after tetanization of control group was 1.10 ± 0.26 and 1.15 ± 0.14 after homosynaptic and antidromic priming stimulation respectively. On the contrast, FS group didn't show any depression of LTP after homosynaptic and antidromic priming stimulation, normalized fEPSP slope 1 h after tetanization being 1.35 ± 0.2 and 1.47 ± 0.19, respectively. These results suggest that FS would impair lateral perforant path metaplasticity without affecting LTP. These findings represent an intriguing phenomenon of FS-caused brain damage and imply the injury of excitatory status in different pathways.
