Objective To investigate the changes in concentrations of the homocysteine (Hey) and other aminothiols (ESRD) in plasma of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients before and after hemodialysis (HD). Methods 26 chronic renal failure patients treated with hemodialysis plus 54 healthy controls were randomly chosen. The concentrations of plasma total homocysteine (they), total cysteine ( tCys), total cysteinylg]ycine (tCysGly), total glutathione (tGSH) were determined by HPLC-fluorescence detection (FD). The concentrations of serum lipids were detected and several renal function tests were conducted. Results The concentrations of they ( 16. 70 ± 3.51 μmol/L vs 10. 95±3.07 μmol/L, t =3. 625,P <0. 01),tCys(341.87±70.65 μmoL/L vs 249.76 ± 13.18 μ mol/L,t =6.219,P <0.01), tCysGly(41.33 ± 32. 95 μmol/L vs 31.3 ± 11.78 μmol/L, t = 3. 530, P <0.01 ) in pre-hemodialysis plasma were significantly elevated , and tGSH ( 5.91 ± 0. 08 μmol/L vs 9. 33 ± 2. 62 μ mol/L, t =-5.404, P < 0. 01 ) was significantly decreased compared with the control group. The concentrations of tHey and tCys (11.74 ± 3.42 μmol/L and 272. 67 ± 64. 18 μmol/L) in post-hemodialyais plasma were significantly decreased compared with in pre-hemodiaIysis plasma, but they could not be restored to normal levels. However, the concentrations of tCysGly(41.33 ± 32. 95 μmol/L vs 44. 93 ± 13.88 μmol/L,t =-0.758, P>0.05) and tGSH (5.91±0.08 μmol/L vs 5.93±0.38 μmol/L,t = -0.068,P >0.05) in pre-hemodialysis plasma and post-hemodialysis plasma didn't change significantly. There were significant positive correlations between plasma levels of they and tCys(r =0. 458 2 ,P <0. 01 ). There was significant negative correlations between plasma levels of tHcy and tGSH ( r =-0.609 9, P=0.000 9). Nevertheless, tHcy levels were was not correlated with tCysGly levels and other serum lipid parameters. Conclusion There is a high prevalence of metabolic disturbance in Hcy and other related aminothiols in ESRD patients.

Objective:To explore the predictive value of computed tomography (CT) texture analysis for the recurrence in children with acute pancreatitis (AP).Methods:The clinical diagnostic test was conducted. The clinical data of 56 children with primary AP who were admitted to Wuhan Fourth Hospital from January 2016 to January 2018 were collected. There were 13 males and 43 females, aged from 3.5 to 13.0 years, with a median age of 5.5 years. Based on follow-up in other hospitals, 20 children with recurrence of AP were allocated into recurrence group, and 36 children without recurrence were allocated into non-recurrence group. All the 56 children underwent abdomen plain and enhanced CT scan within 24 hours after first admission. Observation indicators: (1) comparison of clinicopathological features between two groups of children with AP. (2) comparison of CT texture parameters between two groups of children with AP. (3) diagnostic efficacy of clinical features and CT texture parameters. Follow-up using outpatient reexamination and telephone interview was conducted to detect recurrence of AP up to February 2020. The duration of follow-up required more than or equal to 24 months. The Shapiro Wilk test was used to analyze normality of measurement data. Measurement data with normal distribution were repre-sented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range) or M ( P25, P75), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Clinical parameters and CT texture parameters with statistical differences were multivariate analyzed using the Logistic regression model. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis was used to evaluate the predictive efficacy of parameters for recurrence of AP. Results:(1) Comparison of clinicopatholo-gical features between two groups of children with AP: cases with or without complications were 14 and 6 for the recurrence group, versus 7 and 29 for the non-recurrence group, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=14.021, P<0.05). Cases with minimal, moderately severe or severe disease (severity of disease) were 2, 5, 13 for the recurrence group, versus 19, 11, 6 for the non-recurrence group, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( Z=5.414, P<0.05). (2) Comparison of CT texture parameters between two groups of children with AP: the energy value in the arterial phase on CT examination was 0.186(0.174,0.206)for the recurrence group and 0.413(0.405,0.425) for the non-recurrence group, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( Z=9.413, P<0.05). The energy value and entropy value in the venous phase on CT examination were 0.084(0.078,0.092) and 0.961(0.210,1.720) for the recurrence group, versus 0.135(0.124,0.156) and 0.372(0.210,0.535) for the non-recurrence group, showing significant differences between the two groups ( Z=4.763, 7.243, P<0.05). (3) Diagnostic efficacy of clinical parameters and CT texture parameters: results of multivariate analysis showed the complications, severity of disease, energy value in the arterial phase on CT examination were related factors for recurrence in children with AP, energy value and entropy value in the venous phase on CT examination were related factor for recurrence in children with AP ( odds ratio=0.874, 0.765, 0.837, 0.902, 0.813, 95% confidence interval as 0.802?0.985, 0.581?0.914, 0.753?0.897, 0.862?0.948, 0.765?0.873, P<0.05). Results of ROC analysis showed that that areas under curve (AUC) of complications, severity of disease in the clinical parameters were 0.734 and 0.832, the AUC of single CT texture parameter was 0.811?0.867, the AUC of clinico-pathological parameters combined with CT texture parameters was 0.882. Conclusion:CT texture analysis can early and non-invasively predict the recurrence of AP in children, and the combination of clinicopathological parameters with CT texture parameter has a better predictive efficacy.

Objective To comprae the difference of Sex hormone,serum and follicular fluid anti Mullerian hormone (AMH) level tube,number of retrieved egg,the number of cleavage rate,fertilization oocytes,the number of available embryos and total embryo on in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) of different reaction groups,to explore the relationship between AMH and pregnancy outcome of IVF-EH.Methods Eighty-one cases of IVF-ET assisted pregnancy were divided into low ovarian response group,normal ovarian response group and high ovarian response group according to the response of the super ovulation.Serum sex hormone and AMH of all patients were detected on the third day of menstruation,on the day of HCG injection,oocyte pick-up (OPU) and embryo transfer (ET),AMH in FF were detected too.The difference of oocytes,cleavage rate,embryo quality and the indicators mentioned above among the three groups were compared.All of the above indicators were compared between pregnancy group and unpregnancy group.Results (1) The level of AMH on the third day of menstruation ((1.76 ± 0.47) μg/L,(3.45 ± 1.01) μg/L,(6.34 ± 1.29) μg/L,F =2.435,P＜0.001),HCG injection ((1.09±0.13)μg/L,(1.29±0.29)μg/L,(2.64±0.51)μg/L,F=1.542,P=0.001) and embryo planting((1.32±0.33) μg/L,(1.62±0.39) μg/L,(1o 91±0.41) μg/L,F =1.573,P ＜0.001) all were statistically significant in three groups.On day of OPU,the levels of serum AMH ((0.95±0.21)μg/L,(1.15±0.29) μg/L,(1.74±0.41) μg/L,F =12.573,P＜0.001) and AMH in FF((5.82±1.19) μg/L,(6.92±1.05) μg/L,(7.79±1.39) μg/L,F =9.83,P＜0.001) were statistically differences in the three groups.(2)The number of oocytes were positively correlated with AFC,based AMH,levels of E2,P and AMH on the day of HCG injection and OPU,E2 and AMH on the day of ET and AMH in FF(P＜0.05).(3)AMH in FF in pregnancy group was (6.22±0.82)μ g/L,significantly higher than those without pregnancy group ((5.31 ±0.71)μg/L,P =0.037).Conclusions Levels of AMH in serum and follicular fluid are good predictors of ovarian response in IVF-ET.The level of serum AMH can only predict ovarian response,but can not effectively predict pregnancy outcome.The level of AMH in FF is a good predictor of pregnancy outcome.

AIM:To investigate whether KCNE 2 participates in the development of pathological hypertrophy .METHODS:Bidirectional ma-nipulations of KCNE2 expression were performed by adenoviral overexpression of KCNE 2 or knockdown of KCNE2 with RNA interfer-ence in PE-induced neonatal rat ventricular myocytes .Then overexpression of KCNE 2 in mouse model of left ventricular hypertrophy in-duced by transverse aortic constriction (TAC) by ultrasound microbubble-mediated gene transfer were used to detect the therapeutic function of KCNE2 in the development of hypertrophy .RESULTS:KCNE2 expression was significantly decreased in PE-induced hy-pertrophic cardiomyocytes and in hypertrophic hearts produced by TAC .Knockdown of KCNE2 in cardiomyocytes reproduced hypertro-phy, whereas overexpression of KCNE2 attenuated PE-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy .Knockdown of KCNE2 increased calcineurin activity and nuclear NFAT protein level , and pretreatment with nifedipine or FK 506 attenuated decreased KCNE 2-induced cardiomyo-cyte hypertrophy .Overexpression of KCNE 2 in heart by ultrasound microbubble-mediated gene transfer suppressed the development of hypertrophy and activation of calcineurin-NFAT and MAPK pathways in TAC mice .CONCLUSION:These findings demonstrate that cardiac KCNE2 expression is decreased and contributes to the development of hypertrophy via activation of calcineurin -NFAT and
MAPK pathways .

Purpose To investigate the clinical, imaging and pathologic characteristics of dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma.Methods The clinical and pathological data were reviewed in 11 cases of dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma.Results Most of these patients were male (7/11). The mean age was 57.1 years.Most tumors were located in the long bone and pelvis. Imaging showed that bones were extensively destroyed.There was calcification or ossification on focus of infection. The gross specimen showed that cartilage component was located within bone and dedifferentiated sarcoma was found out of the bone.Microscopically, well differentiated chondrosarcoma and poorly differentiated sarcoma components were observed. Six patients died and the average survival time was 14 months.Conclusions Dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma is an unusual subtype of chondrosarcoma with pleomorphic alterations. Further understanding the pathologic features of the tumor is important to increase the accurancy of diagnosis.

With redox-sensitive fluorescene probes DCFH-DA and DHR123, the formation of cytosolic and intramitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) inside immature rat cerebellar granule cells during the apoptosis induced by nitric oxide donor S-nitroso-N-acetyl-pennicillamine (SNAP) was monitored by laser confocal scanning microscopy. The cytosolic and intramitochondrial ROS increase significantly after 0.5 mmol/L SNAP treatment for 1 h. Pre-treatment with the nitric oxide scavenger hemoglobin can effectively inhibit the formation of cytosolic and intrarnitochondrial ROS and protect neurons from apoptosis. Adding glutathione can also protect neurons from apoptosis, and the cytotoxity of nitric oxide increases significantly while the synthesis of glutathione is inhibited. The results indicated that ROS might be involved in NO-induced apoptosis in neural cells and glutathione might be the endogenesis antioxidant to protect neurons from oxidative injury.

This study is to investigate the effects of phenytoin sodium, lidocaine (sodium channel blockers), propranolol (beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist), amiodarone (drugs prolonging the action potential duration) and verapamil (calcium channel blockers) on arrhythmia of mice induced by Bufonis Venenum (Chansu) and isolated mouse hearts lethal dose of Chansu. Arrhythmia of mice were induced by Chansu and then electrocardiograms (ECGs) were recorded. The changes of P-R interval, QRS complex, Q-T interval, T wave amplitude, heart rate (HR) were observed. Moreover, arrhythmia rate, survival rate and arrhythmia score were counted. Isolated mouse hearts were prefused, and the lethal dose of Chansu was recorded. Compared with control group, after pretreatment with phenytoin sodium, broadening of QRS complex and HR were inhibited, and the incidence of ventricular arrhythmia was reduced dramatically, while survival rate was improved; the isolated mouse hearts lethal dose of Chansu was increased significantly. After pretreatment with lidocaine, the prolongation of P-R interval and broadening of QRS complex were inhibited, and the incidences of ventricular arrhythmia were reduced dramatically, while survival rate was improved; the isolated mouse hearts lethal dose of Chansu was increased significantly. After pretreatment with propranolol, prolongation of P-R interval, broadening of QRS complex, prolongation of Q-T interval and HR were inhibited, and the incidences of both supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias were reduced dramatically, while survival rate was improved. After pretreatment with amiodarone, HR was inhibited, the incidences of ventricular tachycardia were reduced dramatically. Lastly, after pretreatment with verapamil, the prolongation of P-R interval and Q-T interval were inhibited and the incidences of both supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias were reduced dramatically; the isolated mouse hearts lethal dose of Chansu was reduced significantly. In in vivo experiments, phenytoin sodium was most effective against the mice arrhythmias induced by Chansu while cautious use of verapamil for Chansu inducing arrhythmia should be noted. It is also concluded that mice ventricular arrhythmias induced by Chansu might be most closely related to sodium channel, supraventricular arrhythmias might be related to beta-adrenergic receptor, and calcium channel plays an important role in conduction block. In in vitro experiments, phenytoin sodium was most effective, followed by lidocaine and propranolol, and amiodarone had no obvious effect and verapamil reduced the lethal dose of Chansu.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of BVT. 2733 on insulin resistance, by using diet-induced obese (DIO) mice model. Methods After having been balanced for 3 days, the C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into a normal diet group and a high-fat diet (HFD) group. After 20 weeks, the obese mice were further randomly divided into an obese control group, a BVT. 2733 group and a pioglltazone (PGZ) group and they were orally administered with placebo, BVT. 2733 and PGZ separately for two weeks.Adiponectin and leptin mRNA expression levels from adipose tissue were analyzed with real-time quantitative PCR. The levels of plasma glucose, serum insulin and adiponectin were measured with biochemical technology, radioimmunoassay and ELISA. Adipocyte sizes were observed with immunohistocbemistry.Results The body weight, plasma glucose and serum insulin levels raised(P<0.05)in the HFD group and the adipocyte sizes were bigger. Serum insulin levels significantly reduced (P<0.05) and adipocyte sizes reduced, while plasma adiponectin level raised (P<0.01)in the two treatment groups as compared with those in obese controls. Both the mRNA expressions of adiponectin and leptin upregulated(P<0.05)in the PGZ group, but their expressions in the BVT. 2733 group did not alter significantly. The body weight of the mice reduced significantly in the BVT. 2733 group. Conclusion BVT. 2733 can reduce body weight significantly and improve insulin resistance, but cannot influence the expression of adipocytokines.

Objective To search the literature of randomized controlled trials on the treatment of anterior vaginal wall prolapse with adjuvant materials and compare the efficacy and safety of anterior vaginal wall prolapse repair with and without adjuvant materials.Methods Searches were made in the databases of Pubmed,Embase and Ovid for randomized controlled trials from 1980 to 2012 on the treatment of anterior vaginal wall prolapse with adjuvant materials.Comprehensive meta-analyses were conducted with Revman 5.1 analysis software to compare vaginal wall anatomy failure rate,operative duration,intraoperative bleeding volume,postoperative visceral injury,pelvic pain,urinary infection,material exposure,material erosion,de novo urinary incontinence and de novo dyspareunia in the adjuvant materials repair and repair without adjuvant materials groups.Results A total of 20 randomized controlled trials including 2313 participants were retrieved.The shortest average follow-up period was 3 months and the longest 36 months.Compared with repair without adjuvant materials,the application of adjuvant materials in anterior vaginal wall repair reduced vaginal front wall prolapse anatomy failure rate lower anatomy failure rate,had a longer operating duration,more peri-operative bleeding and lower urinary tract infection rate.The comprehensive effects were as follows:P＜0.01,RR =0.51,95％CI:0.41-0.64;P ＜0.01,weighted mean differenece (WMD) =16.25,95％ CI:8.07-24.43;P =0.01,WMD =35.00,95％ CI:6.90-63.11 ;P =0.03,RR =0.51,95％ CI:0.28-0.93,respectively,but the comparison of two groups around in visceral injury,postoperative pain,de novo stress urinary incontinence and de novo dyspareunia had no significant differences (P =0.07,0.58,0.54 and 0.67) and the average materiale exposure and rosion rate were 4.37％ (27/618) and 7.69％ (24/312) respectively.Conclusions The application of adjuvant materials in anterior vaginal wall repair can improve the postoperative recurrence.But no obvious differences exist in the incidence of complications in anterior repair with adjuvant materials and repair without adjuvant materials.
