Aim To investigate the mechanisms in protecting HUVEC against ischemia/reperfusion(I/R) injury directed by curcumin.Methods Hypoxia/reoxgenation(H/R) model was established on HUVEC.MTT colorimetric assay was used to observe the injury degree of hypoxia and reoxygenation at the different time.With preconditioning by different concentration of Cur,the survival rate of HUVEC subjected to H/R was assessed by MTT colorimetric assay.Pretreated with Cur(5 ?mol?L-1),the expression of LC3,cathepsin B,cathepsin L,Bax and Bcl-2 were observed by fluorescent staining and Western blot in HUVEC during H/R process.Results Cur(1.25~5 ?mol?L-1) played a protective role during H/R in HUVEC in a dose-dependent manner.During H/R,the expressions of LC3,cathepsin B and the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 increased,and the nuclear translocation of cathepsin L was induced;when cur was pretreated,LC3 was furtherstrengthened,at the same time,the up-regulation of cathepsin B,the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 and the nuclei-location of cathepsin L were inhibited partly by Cur.Conclusions Cur can raise the survival rate of HUVEC in the process of H/R.Cur increases the autophagy activity,depresses cathepsins and Bax/Bcl-2 to protect the endothelial cells.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of magnetron-sputtered ZrSiN/ZrO2 gradient coating on the bonding strength of commercially pure titanium to porcelain.Methods:50 cast titanium specimens were prepared according to the ISO 9693 standard,and divided into 2 groups(n =25).The ZrSiN/ZrO2 gradient coating was deposited on specimens by magnetron sputtering technique,and subsequently a low-fusing porcelain was applied for the samples in the expermental group,the samples in the control group were treated by surface sandblasting.The roughness and surface energy of the samples were measured(n =10).The bonding strength of titanium-porcelain specimens was analyzed by three-point bending test (n =10).Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDS) were employed to examine the properties of the delaminated and cross-sectioned surfaces.The results were analyzed by paired t-test (α =0.05) with SPSS 1 1.0 software.Results:The roughness of the experimantal group was lower(P ＜ 0.05) and the contact angle was larger(P ＜ 0.05) than those in the control group.The titanium-porcelain bond strength of gradient-coated group was greater than that of control group(P ＜0.05).The SEM and EDS examination results of delaminated and cross-sectioned surfaces also indicated that the gradient-coated group showed more porcelain residues.Conclusion:The bonding strength of porcelain-fused-to-titanium can be improved by magnetron sputtered ZrSiN/ZrO2 gradient coating.

Objective: This study aimed to determine the predictive performance of non-contrast CT (NCCT) signs for hemorrhagic growth after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) when stratified by onset-to-imaging time (OIT). Materials and Methods: 1488 supratentorial ICH within 6 h of onset were consecutively recruited from six centers between January 2018 and August 2022. NCCT signs were classified according to density (hypodensities, swirl sign, black hole sign, blend sign, fluid level, and heterogeneous density) and shape (island sign, satellite sign, and irregular shape) features. Multivariable logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between NCCT signs and three types of hemorrhagic growth: hematoma expansion (HE), intraventricular hemorrhage growth (IVHG), and revised HE (RHE). The performance of the NCCT signs was evaluated using the positive predictive value (PPV) stratified by OIT. Results: Multivariable analysis showed that hypodensities were an independent predictor of HE (adjusted odds ratio [95% confidence interval] of 7.99 [4.87–13.40]), IVHG (3.64 [2.15–6.24]), and RHE (7.90 [4.93–12.90]). Similarly, OIT (for a 1-h increase) was an independent inverse predictor of HE (0.59 [0.52–0.66]), IVHG (0.72 [0.64–0.81]), and RHE (0.61 [0.54– 0.67]). Blend and island signs were independently associated with HE and RHE (10.60 [7.36–15.30] and 10.10 [7.10–14.60], respectively, for the blend sign and 2.75 [1.64–4.67] and 2.62 [1.60–4.30], respectively, for the island sign). Hypodensities demonstrated low PPVs of 0.41 (110/269) or lower for IVHG when stratified by OIT. When OIT was ≤ 2 h, the PPVs of hypodensities, blend sign, and island sign for RHE were 0.80 (215/269), 0.90 (142/157), and 0.83 (103/124), respectively. Conclusion Hypodensities, blend sign, and island sign were the best NCCT predictors of RHE when OIT was ≤ 2 h. NCCT signs may assist in earlier recognition of the risk of hemorrhagic growth and guide early intervention to prevent neurological deterioration resulting from hemorrhagic growth.
