Trace dements molybdenum was discovered in 1778.As a rare refractory metals,it is one of the essential trace elements for human body.Molybdenum is mainly distributed in the skeleton,absorbed in the digestive tract,and excreted by the kidney,bile,sweat,and hair.Molybdenum is involved in metabolism mainly through two ways:inorganic salts,and molybdenum-containing enzyme cofactor.An appropriate mount of molybdenum is important for life activities of the human body,whereas molybdenum deficiency and molybdenum accumulation may cause the multiple system dysfunction.Molybdenum imbalance can be prevented and treated by diet or supportive therapy.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the mutation of the exon 4 of leptin receptor gene(4Lys 109 Arg)and left ventricular function and renal hemodynamics in patients with hypertension.Methods From December 2005 to December 2006,digoxin marked primer enzyme coloration technique was used to detect the 4Lys 109 Arg polymorphism.The color Doppler echocardiography was used to detect the left ventricular function and the renal hemodynamics.The study covered 90 patients with hypertension (hypertension group)and 52 controls (control group).Results The frequencies of 4Lys109Arg in hypertension group and control group had no significant difference.The hypertension with GG genotype was significant difference in left ventrieular ejection fraction(LVEF),E/A,left ventrieular fractional shortening(LVFS),resistance index(BI),pulsatility index(PI)(P<0.05).The hypertension with GA genotype had significant difference in LVEF,E/A,LVFS(P<0.05).In hypertension group,LVEF,E/A,LVFS.RI and PI had significant difference between GG and AA genotype(P<0.05).In control goup,RI had significant difference between GG and AA genotype(0.65 ±0.02 vs 0.63±0.02,P<0.05).Conclusion The renal hemodynamics and the left ventricular function are associated with 4Lys109Arg polymorphism.

Objective To study the effect of dimethyl fumarate (DMF) on Aβ-induced oxidative stress by regulating NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) expression and its mechanism.Methods Rat astrocytes were divided into Aβ group,DMF group,Nrf2 group and Nrf2 +DMF group.Expressions of Nrf2,Nqo1,Ho-1,Keap1 mRNA and HDAC were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot respectively.Results The expression levels of Nrf2,Nqo1 and HO-1 mRNA were significantly lower in Nrf2 group and Nrf2+DMF group than in Aβ group and DMF group (P＜0.05) and were significantly higher in DMF group than in Aβ group (P＜0.05) while the expression level of Keap1 mRNA was significantly lower in DMF group and Nrf2+DMF group than in Aβ group and Nrf2 group (P＜0.05).The expression level of HDAC was significantly lower in DMF group and Nrf2+DMF group than in Aβ group and Nrf2 group (6.41±0.43 vs 9.01±1.54,P＜0.05;6.72±0.30 vs 8.76± 0.74,P＜0.05).Conclusion DMF increases the Nrf2 expression by inhibiting the HDAC expression,thus reducing Aβ-induced oxidative stress in rat astrocytes.

Purpose To assess the initial and follow-up CT findings of proven pulmonary invasive fungal disease (IFD) in patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), and to look for the signs for the prognosis. Materials and Methods A retrospective investigation of the CT features and the evolution process was carried out in 13 patients with proven pulmonary IFD diagnosed by histological examination. Results The first abnormal CT finding showed single nodule or mass in 5 cases, two nodules or masses in 2 cases, multiple nodules or masses in 2 cases, patchy consolidation in 1 case, patchy ground glass opacity (GGO) in 1 case, multiple stripes and GGOs in 1 case, and multiple consolidations in peribronchial distribution in 1 case; the presence of reversed halo sign (RHS) was found in 7 cases, not including 4 cases with aspergillosis. The median initial diameter was 32.0 mm, and the median maximum diameter was 51.5 mm. 9 of them reached partial remission after drug treatment, and 9 accepted operation resection. In the end, there were 5 cases cured, 1 keeping stable, 2 suspected recurrent on imaging, and 5 dead. In summary, it showed less than 2 nodules or masses in 7 patients (group 1) and other imaging patterns in 6 patients (group 2), the former group had smaller max diameter (t=4.397, P<0.01), the effective rate within 12 weeks, operation resection rate and final cure rate of group 1 were 85.7%, 100.0% and 71.4%, and those of group 2 were 16.7%, 33.3% and 0, respectively, with group 1 all higher than group 2 (P<0.05). Conclusion Nodule or mass is the most common CT finding of pulmonary IFD in HSCT recipients, with high incidence of reversed halo sign, less than 2 nodules or masses on the first CT imaging may be associated with better prognosis.

Objective To observe the effects of target-controlled infusion ofpropofol on hemodynamics during anesthesia induction in intracranial aneurysms interventional treatment.Methods Ninety patients in intracranial aneurysms interventional treatment were divided into three groups by random digits table method with 30 cases each:control group (group C),plasma drug concentration in target controlled infusion group (group P) and effect of chamber drug concentration in target controlled infusion group (group E).The induction of anesthesia:patients in group C were single intravenous injected with propofol of 2 mg/kg; patients in group P were set target plasma concentration of propofol with 4 μ g/ml.Patients in group E were set the effect target concentration of propofol with 4 μ g/ml.Three groups were set the concentration of remifentanil 4 ng/ml with plasma controlled infusion,and cisatracurium was injected with 0.2 mg/kg.Electrocardiogram,mean arterial pressure (MAP),heart rate (HR),end-tidal pressure of carbon dioxide,bispectral index,pulse oxygen saturation were continuously monitored.Before the time of induction (T0),immediately before intubation (T1),after intubation 1 min (T2),3 min (T3),5 min (T4),10 min (T5),arterial pressure and HR were recorded and the number of using vasoactive drugs were recorded.Results The level of MAP and HR among three groups at T0 had no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05).The level ofMAP and HR in three groups at T1 was significantly lower than that at T0.(P ＜ 0.05).The level of MAP and HR in group P was lower than that in group E and group C,and there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).The incidence of using vasoactive agen in group P was significantly lower than that in group C [6.7％(2/30) vs.40.0％ (12/30)],and there was significant difference (P ＜0.01).Conclusion Hemodynamics is relatively stable during anesthesia induction using plasma target controlled infusion with propofol in patients undergoing interventional therapy for intracranial aneurysm.
