Objective To explore the effect of Ulinastatin on proinflammatory cytokines of patients undergoing operation of intracranial aneurysm embolization. Methods 40 patients undergoing operation of intracranial aneurysm embolization were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 20): ulinastatin group (Group U), normal saline group (Group C). In group U, 6 000 IU/kg Ulinastatin was infused via vein before anesthesia induction, the group C received the injection of isovolume normal saline. Exsanguinated arterial blood at T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 five time points were taken to measure TNF-α and IL-6 in serum. Results The contents of TNF-α and IL-6 in serum both increased at T3, T4 and T5 compared to that at T1 in both groups; both TNF-α and IL-6 significantly decreased in Group U compared to that in Group C at the same time point. Conclusion Ulinastatin may inhibit the release of inflammatory mediators and lighten cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in patients undergoing operation of intracranial aneurysm embolization.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of slow coronary flow (SCF) phenomenon; To study the prognosis of SCF patients and analyze the high risk factors of adverse events by follow-up.Methods 17930 patients were analyzed retrospectively who had undergone routine coronary angiography because of suspected coronary artery disease at TEDA International Cardiovascular Hospital from January 2006 to December 2010.By Thrombolysis in myocardial infarction Frame Count method,236 patients with normal coronary artery but slow coronary flow were enrolled in the SCF group and 240 patients with normal coronary artery and normal coronary flow (40-50patients per year) were enrolled in the control group.After that,the risk factors leading to SCF were analyzed by the multivariate logistic regression analysis and all patients were followed up from March 2012 to April 2012 to know about the incidence of adverse events (acute coronary syndrome,malignant arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death) and the high risk factors leading to the adverse events.Results (1) Compared to the patients in the control group,the patients in SCF group have higher percentage of male (76.69％ vs.42.08％,P =0.000) 、rate of smokers (58.48％ vs.27.50％,P =0.000) 、BMI (26.78 ±3.75 vs.26.13 ±3.20,P =0.043) 、serum uric acid (344.90 ± 86.18 vs.304.43 ±76.44,P =0.000) 、serum creatinine (68.27 ± 15.10 vs.60.92 ± 13.17,P =0.000)、triglyceride (1.85 ± 1.23 vs.1.65 ± 0.81,P =0.037) but younger age and lower high density lipoprotein cholesterol (1.14 ± 0.28 vs.1.19 ± 0.30,P =0.048).(2) By multivariate logistic regression analysis,male,smoking status,hiah BMI and serum uric acid are all independent factors for SCF.(3) The SCF phenomenon noted in lvessel,2 vessels and 3 vessels accounted for 7.29％,26.04％,66.67％,respectively.(4) During the follow-up,2 patients with malignant arrhythmia and 1 patients with ACS were found in SCF group,no sudden cardiac death took place.None of the adverse events happened in the control group.Conclusions Younger male smokers are prone to have SCF,high BMI and serum uric acid are also independent factors for SCF; The SCF phenomenon is most common in three coronary arteries.Both malignant arrhythmia and acute coronary syndrome took place in the SCF group in the follow-up.

Objective To discuss DNA methylation's effect on pathogenesis of pediatric immune thrombocytopenia (ITP)through detecting the expression level of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs)mRNA in peripheral blood lymphocytes of children with ITP.Methods Two mL peripheral blood was collected from each of 25 children with persistent and chronic ITP and 20 healthy children (the healthy control group)by using aseptic method in the pediatric ward of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from January 2014 to January 2015.First ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) was used as the anticoagulant.Then separate the mononuclear cells,extract RNA and detect expression levels of DNMT1,DNMT3A and DNMT3B mRNA using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method.Results (1) The blood platelet (PLT) of children with persistent and chronic ITP was (36.2 ± 19.6) × 109/L,which was obviously lower than the healthy control group(168.8 ±46.8) × 109/L(t =-11.85,P =0.000).(2)The DNMT1 mRNA expression level of children with persistent and chronic ITP was 0.17 ± 0.05,which was obviously lower than the healthy control group (0.27 ± 0.10) (t =-3.912,P =0.001).The DNMT3A mRNA expression level of children with persistent and chronic ITP was 0.20 ± 0.10,which was obviously lower than the healthy control group (0.32 ±0.11) (t =-3.779,P =0.000).The DNMT3B mRNA expression level of children with persistent and chronic ITP was 0.16 ± 0.1 1,which was obviously lower than the healthy control group (0.31 ±0.11) (t =-4.641,P =0.000).(3) There was positive correlation between the expression of DNMT1 and DNMT3B mRNA(r =0.433,P =0.031).There was positive correlation between the expression of DNMT3A and DNMT3B mRNA(r =0.721,P =0.000).Conclusions (1) Children with persistent and chronic ITP have lower expression levels of DNMT1,DNMT3A,DNMT3 B mRNA,which indicates that DNA methylation contributes to the pathogenesis of pediatric persistent and chronic ITP.(2) DNMTs have synergistic effect on DNA methylation of pediatric persistent and chronic ITP.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of triple anti-platelet therapy (low-dose tirofiban plus aspirin and clopidogrel) comparing to dual anti-platelet therapy (aspirin and clopidogrel) in preventing stent thrombosis (ST) and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) within 30 days after implantation of drug-eluting stent (DES) in ACS patients.Methods A total of 2904 ACS patients treated with DES from March 2004 to November 2010 were enrolled for retrospective study.Of them,1145 patients were treated with dual anti-platelet therapy (DAT) and 1759 patients with triple anti-platelet therapy (TAT).The incidences of ST,MACE (cardiac death,urgent target vessel revasculanization and myocardial infarction) and side effects occurred within 30 days after PCI were compared between two groups by Fisher' s exact test.Results (1)Although there were significant differences in age,the degree of coronary stenosis,the number of smokers,diabetes,hyperlipidemia and coronary diffuse lesion between two groups,but these differences did not impact on the end point events showed by Cox analysis.The rest of the general condition of patients between two groups was no difference.(2) The incidence of ST as primary end point was lower in TAT group than that in DAT group (0.11％ vs.1.05％,P =0.0036),reducing the relative risk by 89.52％.In addition,the incidence of MACT as secondary end point was also lower in TAT group than that in DAT group (0.17％ vs.1.48％,P =0.0005),reducing the relative risk by 88.51％.Among the total,the incidences of cardiac death and urgent target vessel re-vascularization in TAT group were lower than those in DAT group with significant differences.However,there was no difference in the incidence of myocardial infarction between two groups.(3) Both two groups had no severe hemorrhage complication,the incidence of mild hemorrhage was similar in two groups (0.45％ vs.0.35％,P =0.6720).Nesides,the incidence of acute thrombocytopenia between two groups was also similar (0.45％ vs.0.09％,P =0.083).Conclusions The patients with ACS in the TAT group have significant lower incidence of ST and MACE than those in the DAT group within 30 days after PCI.While the risk of bleeding and the incidence of acute thrombocytopenia do not increase.

MicroRNA (miRNA for short) can induce mRNA cleavage or inhibit mRNA translation and regulate gene expression in the post-transcriptional level, which involves cell development, proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and a series of important biological processes. Recent studies have found that the abnormal regulation of miRNA's target genes may be involved in tumor resistance. And it is expected to become important tumor resistance-associat-ed molecular markers and therapeutic targets. Mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and its active ingre-dients can affect miRNA to regulate target proteins and target genes mediated tumor multidrug resistance. It can pro-vide new ideas for the mechanism of reversing multidrug resistance by TCM.

In order to study genetic variation diversity of porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) strains in Shanxi,the genomic sequences of nine PCV2 strains including SXQX,SXCZ,SXTY2,SXJC,SXJX,SXLL,SXPY,SXPG and SXXY recently isolated from some areas of Shanxi from 2013 to 2016,was cloned,sequenced and received by GenBank.The amplified PCV2 genomic sequences,ORF2 sequences and Cap protein amino acid of these nine strains were analysed and compared with those of published 28 PCV2 strains by DNAStar,drawing phylogenetic tree.The results showed that the genomic sequences of SXJX,SXJC and SXXY PCV2 strains were 1 768 bp,and the others were 1 767 bp,which accounted for 33％ and 67％,respectively.The homologies of nucleotide sequences of the nine strains were 94.7％-99.8％,the homologies of nucleotide sequences of the nine strains with the 28 isolates from different regions of the world PCV strain were 93.9％-99.9％,and the homologies of nucleotide sequences of the nine strains with the domestic vaccine strains were 95.1％-99.8％.The phylogenetic analysed that SXJX,SXJC and SXXY belonged to genotype PCV-2D,SXLL,SXPY and SXCZ belonged to genotype PCV-1C,and SXTY14,SXPG and SXQX belonged to genotype PCV-1A/1B.Thus it proved that the epidemic strain of PCV2 was mainly PCV-2b in Shanxi.The homologies of ORF2 nucleotide sequences and Cap amino acid of the nine strains were 90.0％-100.0％ and 87.1 ％-100.0％ respectively,the homologies of ORF2 nucleotide sequences and Cap amino acid of the nine strains with the 28 isolates from different regions of the world PCV strain were 87.6％-100.0％ and 84.1％-100.0％ respectively,and the homologies of ORF2 nucleotide sequences and Cap amino acid of the nine strains with the domestic vaccine strains were 91.0％-100.0％ and 89.3％-100.0％ respectively.The Cap amino acids of SXQX,SXJX,SXTY14,SXPG,SXJC and SXXY PCV2 were 233,ORF2 of SXQX,SXTY14 and SXPG located at 1 033-1 734 bp,ORF2 of SXXY,SXJX and SXJC located at 1 033-1 734 bp,and the Cap amino acids of SXCZ,SXLL and SXPY PCV2 were 234,ORF2 of them located at 1 030-1 734 bp,in addition,the positions of 1 030-1 734 bp were more three bases TCA than other ORF2 genome sequence of 1 767 bp,resulting in increasing a K (Lys) of amino acid sequencein at the 234 position.Also Cap protein of 9 PCV2 strains showed more amino acid variation in addition to the only high-ly conserved glycosylation sites (NYS) (pp.143-145 amino acid).It provided theoretical basis for the PCV2 immune prevention of research in Shanxi,and the data of basic theory of molecular pathogenesis of PCV2.

They were randomly assigned to undergo treatment with levodopa and benserazide hydrochloride (levodopa and benserazide hydrochloride group), pramipexole (pramipexole group), or their combination (combined therapy group), with 30 patients in each group. All patients were treated for 12 consecutive weeks. Clinical efficacy, levels of brain neurotransmitters (dopamine, 5-hydroxytryptamine, norepinephrine, and substance P), and oxidative stress response (superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde, homocysteine levels) were compared among the three groups.Results:Total response rate in the combined therapy group was 96.67% (29/30), which was significantly higher than 66.67% (20/30) in the levodopa and benserazide hydrochloride group and 76.67% (23/30) in the pramipexole group ( χ2 = 8.65, P < 0.05). After treatment, dopamine, 5-hydroxytryptamine, norepinephrine, substance P, superoxide dismutase, malondialdehyde, and homocysteine levels in the combined therapy group were (9.05 ± 1.24) ng/mg, (89.49 ± 10.69) μg/L, (15.16 ± 1.36) ng/mg, (102.8 ± 15.36) μg/L, (88.40 ± 10.04) kU/L, (5.5 ± 2.31) μmol/L, and (9.20 ± 3.36) μmol/L, respectively, which were superior to (6.61 ± 1.02) ng/mg, (68.52 ± 9.52) μg/L, (12.33 ± 1.24) ng/mg, (151.64 ± 16.03) μg/L, (74.99 ± 7.28) kU/L, (9.27 ± 3.07) μmol/L, and (13.52 ± 3.64) μmol/L in the levodopa and benserazide hydrochloride group and (7.22 ± 1.09) ng/mg, (79.52 ± 10.20) μg/L, (13.92 ± 1.31) ng/mg, (131.30 ± 15.65) μg/L, (80.59 ± 8.24) kU/L, (7.53 ± 2.93) μmol/L, (11.35 ± 3.71) μmol/L in the pramipexole group ( F = 38.53, 32.05, 35.49, -73.42, 18.42, -22.65, -12.13, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Levodopa and benserazide hydrochloride combined with pramipexole are highly effective on Parkinson's disease. The combined therapy can effectively improve brain neurotransmitters and regulate oxidative stress response.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between CHA 2DS 2-VASC score and the recurrence risk of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation. Methods:It was a retrospective cohort study. A total of 150 patients who underwent radiofrequency ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in Xingtai People′s Hospital from January 2017 to January 2021 were consecutively included in the study. According to the preoperative CHA 2DS 2-VASC score, patients were divided into high score group (≥3 points, n=90) and low score group (<3 points, n=60). Baseline clinical data was collected. All patients underwent circumferential pulmonary vein isolation, and those with atrial flutter before ablation also underwent tricuspid isthmus isolation. Holter and electrocardiogram examinations were performed at 3, 6 months and 1 year after ablation to evaluate whether there was recurrence of atrial fibrillation. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression was used to analyze the risk factors for recurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation. Results:Among 150 patients 90 were males and 60 were females with a mean age of (64.0±3.6) years. There were no significant differences in age, sex, and proportion of hypertension, diabetes, chronic heart failure and stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), medication of antiarrhythmic and anticoagulant drugs between the two groups (all P>0.05). The longest duration of atrial fibrillation in the high score group was significantly longer than that in the low score group (26.0±6.1) hours vs. (10.0±2.1) hours, P<0.05). There were no patients with cardiac tamponade, atrial esophageal fistula and severe vascular puncture complications in the two groups. During the follow-up period, the recurrence rate in the high score group was significantly higher than that in the low score group (16.7% (15/90) vs. 8.3% (5/60), P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that CHA 2DS 2-VASC score≥3 was an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation recurrence in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation ( HR=3.84, 95% CI: 1.87-7.89, P=0.02). Conclusion:CHA 2DS 2-VASC score≥3 is an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation recurrence in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with typical atrial flutter after radiofrequency ablation.Methods:This study was a case-control study. The clinical data of 120 patients with typical atrial flutter who underwent radiofrequency ablation in Xingtai People′s Hospital from January 2017 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were followed up every 3-6 months for a period of 2 years, and AF occurred in 30 patients (25.0%). The risk factors of AF were analyzed with univariate and multivariate logistic regressions.Results:The mean age of patients was (62.0±6.5) years and 64(53.3%) were males. No patients in the two groups had complications such as cardiac tamponade, pulmonary embolism and cerebral infarction after radiofrequency ablation. Compared with non-AF patients, patients in AF group had older age and higher CHA 2DS 2-VASC score ( P<0.001). Multivariate regression analysis showed that age ( HR=1.09, 95% CI:1.01-1.17) and CHA 2DS 2-VASC score ( HR=3.84, 95% CI:1.87-7.89) were independent risk factors for the occurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation in patients with atrial flutter. Conclusion:After radiofrequency ablation of typical atrial flutter, nearly 25% of patients will relapse into AF, old age and higher CHA 2DS 2-VASC score increase the risk of AF recurrent.

Objective:To investigate the effect of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) on mindfulness attention awareness, experiential avoidance, and cognitive fusion in individuals with general anxiety disorder(GAD).Methods:A total of 53 patients aged 18-60 years who met the GAD diagnostic criteria of DSM-5 were selected from the Seventh People's Hospital of Hangzhou from May 2021 to September 2022.After receiving routine treatment, patients were randomly assigned to two groups: MBCT group( n=26) for an 8-week mindfulness cognitive therapy and health education group( n=27) for an 8-week health education program. Participants were evaluated using the generalized anxiety disorder scale(GAD-7), acceptance and action questionnaire-2nd edition(AAQ-Ⅱ), cognitive fusion questionnaire(CFQ), and mindful attention awareness scale (MAAS) before and after the intervention.Data were analyzed using SPSS 26.0 software, with the chi-square test, independent sample t-test, and paired sample t-test. Results:(1)There was no significant difference in MAAS score between the two groups before the intervention (42.63±10.18, 47.67±9.52, t=-1.55, P=0.13). However, after the intervention, the MAAS score in MBCT group was significantly higher than that in the health education group(54.42±9.87, 47.83±7.59, t=-2.27, P=0.03). (2) No significant difference was observed in CFQ score between the two groups before the intervention (57.11±15.97, 53.50±12.01, t=-0.77, P=0.45). However, after the intervention, the CFQ score in the MBCT group was significantly lower than that in the health education group(38.32±10.31, 47.11±10.66, t=-2.51, P<0.01). (3) There was no significant difference in AAQ-Ⅱ scores between the two groups before the intervention(33.79±7.90, 30.00±7.23, t=1.52, P=0.14). After the intervention, the AAQ-Ⅱ score in the MBCT group was significantly lower than that in the health education group(21.89±8.69, 30.22±8.68, t=-3.51, P<0.01) . Conclusion:MBCT has a positive effect on enhancing mindfulness attention awareness, reducing cognitive fusion, and mitigating experiential avoidance in GAD patients.
