Objective To study the clinical characteristics of abnormal lipid metabolism in different types of elderly people with hypertension.Methods The clinical data,collected from the elderly people who underwent annual physical examination,the characteristics of dyslipidemia and abnormal lipid metabolism in different types of elderly people with hypertension were analyzed retrospectively. Results The prevalence of dyslipidemia was 69. 63％, in which the prevalence of hypercholesteremia and hypertriglyceridemia was 23. 65％, and 26. 71％ respectively. The prevalence of hypercholesteremia accompanied hypertriglyceridemia( mixed group) was 19. 27％, and normal group was 30. 37％. Hypertriglyceridemia group was easier to be accompanied with hypertension than normal group and HTC group(P ＜0. 05). The hypertriglyceridemia had higher risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases than norral group and HTC group( P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusion The elderly people had high prevalence of dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome,and with high prevalence of hypertension, which led to higher risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The hypertriglyceridemia had more strong impact on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases than hypercholesteremia.

Objective:To explore the effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 on renal expression of TGF-?1 and HGF in type 1 diabetic rats.Methods:30 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into 3 groups:normal control rats(group NC),diabetic rats(group DM ) and diabetic rats treated with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3(group DC).Kidney-to-body weight ratio(KW/BW),mean glomerular volume(MGV),fractional mesangial area(FMA),urinary albumin excretion rate(UAER)and serum creatinine(Scr)were measured after 12 weeks of treatment,while transforming growth factor-betal(TGF-?1) expression in kidney cortex were observed by immunohistochemistry.The expression levels of TGF-?1 mRNA and HGF mRNA were detected by reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) at the end of the experiment.Results:UAER,Scr,MGV,FMA and KW/BW ratio were significantly higher in the diabetic rats than those in the normal control rats(P

Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is a group of functional RNA molecules, which is more than 200 nu-cleotides in length, lacks ability of encoding protein and participates in all aspects of gene regulation. The current studies have indicated that some lncRNAs take part in regulating the process of breast cancer tumorigenesis and progression. This article reviewed the abnormal expression of lncRNA in breast cancer, its relationship to breast cancer growth, apoptosis, invasion and metastasis, and its function in early diagnosis, drug resistance and prognosis of breast cancer. This review was expected to offer an insight into a new target for the prediction, diagnosis and individual treatment of breast cancer.

AIM: To study the effect of herbal compound poria prescription (CPP) on proliferation and differentiation in primary rat preadipocytes, and to explore the mechanism of this process. METHODS: Primary cultured rat preadipocyte proliferation was determined by cell counting and MTT spectrophotometry. Cell differentiation was determined by Oil Red O staining, and the expression of PPAR? mRNA was determined by RT-PCR. RESULTS: CPP inhibited the proliferation and differentiation of primary rat preadipocytes in a dose-dependent manner, and it also inhibited the expression of PPAR? mRNA. CONCLUSION: CPP inhibits the proliferation of primary rat preadipocytes and inhibits the preadipocyte differentiation by suppressing the expression of PPAR? mRNA.

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT),which means the transformation of epithelial cells into mesenchymal cells under the influence of cytokines,leading to pathological changes in tissues.According to recent research findings,EMT plays an important role in or-gan fibrosis.Various types of EMT in the fibrosis of hepatobiliary system,as well as the characteristics of each stage and the disease progres-sion,are described,which is of great significance for understanding the development,termination,and even reversion of EMT and fibrosis of hepatic and biliary epithelial cells.

BACKGROUND:Alendronate has a marked enhancing effect on bone mineral density. Ibandronate is the newest (the third generation) bisphosphonates. Evidence-based medicine data on the therapeutic effects ofboth twodrugs remain lacking because of different administration routes and time.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the therapeutic effects of ibandronate and alendronate on postmenopausal osteoporosis.
METHODS:A computer-based online search was conducted in CNKI, PubMed, CECDB, BMA, VIP, CQVIP, CBM, EMbase, ASP, The Cochrane Library, and EMCC databases from August 1999 toAugust 2015 to screen the relevant randomized controled trials. Meta-analysis was performed using Stata/SE version 12.0 software by extracting data from the relevant articles.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 10 randomized controlled trials involving 725 patients (ibandronate and alendronate for 379 and 346 patients, respectively) were included. The meta-analysis results showed that bone mineral density was significantly increased (P=0.174, I2=29.4%,WMD=0.03, 95%CI (0.01-0.04))at 6 months after treatment and incidence rate of fracture was significantly decreased(P=5.810,I2=0%,OR=0.32, 95%CI:(0.10-1.00))during 1-year treatment with ibandronate compared with alendronate treatment. However, no significant differences were found between two drug treatmentsin lumbar spine bone mineral density at 1 year after treatment and the incidence rate of fracture during 6-month treatment. Six-month treatment ofibandronate can improve bone mineral density and reduce the incidence rate of fracture of patients withpostmenopausal osteoporosis.

BACKGROUND:Stem cel transplantation is a promising strategy for treatment of ischemic heart diseases, which has obtained great achievements in recent years. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical trends of stem cel therapy for ischemic heart diseases reported from 2001 to 2015 in Medline, CNKI, Wanfang, ClinicalTrials.gov and Chinese Clinical Trial Register. METHODS:The relevant articles addressing stem cel therapy for ischemic heart diseases were retrieved using the keywords of “stem cel transplantation” and “ischemic heart disease” in Chinese and English in Medline, CNKI, Wanfang, ClinicalTrials.gov and Chinese Clinical Trial Register folowed by statistical analysis. The retrieval time was from 2001 to 2015, including 2001-2005, 2006-2010 and 2011-2015. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In Medline database, there were 219 clinical studies about stem cel therapy for ischemic heart disease published from 2001 to 2015, and the number of retrieved articles was most from 2006 to 2010, and decreased from 2011 to 2015. In CNKI and Wanfang databases, the number of relevant articles which had a similar trend with that in the Medline database decreased remarkably after 2011. In ClinicalTrials.gov, there were 63 clinical trials about stem cel therapy for ischemic heart disease, most of which were registered from 2006 to 2015 and came from Europe and North America. In Chinese Clinical Trial Register, there was no clinical trial about stem cel therapy for ischemic heart disease, which may result from the strict management in China.

Objective To investigate the effect of electroacupuncture on cervical surface electromyographic signals and explore the mechanism of its action on cervical muscle fatigue in patients with cervical spondylosis.Method All enrolled patients with cervical spondylosis received electroacupuncture treatment. Surface electromyography was performed in the patients before and after the first and one course of electroacupuncture treatment. An evaluation was made using a short-form McGill Pain Questionnaire before and after one course of electroacupuncture treatment. Pre- and post-treatment surface electromyographic RMS values and questionnaire scores were statistically analyzed and compared within the group.Result There were statistically significant differences in cervical erector spinae and upper trapezius RMS values during head lateral flexion and backward extension between before and after the first or one course of treatment (P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in the questionnaire sub-scores between before and after one course of treatment (P<0.05).Conclusion Electroacupuncture can markedly reduce cervical muscle fatigue in patients with cervical spondylosis. Surface electromyography as a noninvasive and objective evaluation method has a broad application prospect.
