Modern Clinical Nursing 2014;(6):6-11
Objective To investigate the prevalence of dyslipidemia and overweight/obesity of residents from different economic communities.Method One thousand six hundred and twenty-three residents from three communities with different economic condition in Huadu District,Guangzhou from June to July 2012 participated in the survey by questionnaire and health examination.Results The total prevalence rate in overweight/obesity was 29.4%and that of dyslipidemia 45.4%. The difference of prevalence rate of dyslipidemia among the three economic communities was not statistically significant(P>0.05). But the prevalence of overweight/obesity was statistically significantly different among them(P<0.05). The prevalence rate of overweight/obesity in Huadong town with a relatively poorer economy was lower than that of Tianmei town with a relatively better economy(P<0.017). The prevalence rate of overweight/obesity of male among the three communities had no significant differences(P>0.05),whereas the differences in the females were statistically significant(P<0.05),and the prevalence rate of Huadong town was lower than that of Tianmei town&Xinhua town. The differences in the prevalence of overweight/obesity at different ages from all economic communities showed statistical significance(all P<0.05).The residents aged 45~65 accounted for a large proportion of overweight/obesity.Conclusions Residents in the area have a high prevalence of overweight/obesity and dyslipidemia. The prevalence rates of overweight/obesity from the villages with better economic conditions are higher than that from the villages with poorer economic conditions. Residents aged 45-65 from all the three communities have a relatively high occurrence of overweight/obesity and dyslipidemia.

Objective To compare the curative effects between recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (rhBNP) and sodium nitroprusside in treatment of the acute attack of elderly patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), and probe the impacts of rhBNP on the heart function,serum B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), norepinephrine (NE), endothelin 1 (ET-1) and antidiuretic hormone (ADH) levels. Methods The 89 patients aged 65-85 years at acute attack stage of CHF were randomized into two therapy groups: rhBNP group (n= 47) and sodium nitroprusside group (n=42). The clinical effects, heart function, serum BNP, NE, ET-1 and ADH changes were observed before and after the treatment. Results After 24 hours of treatment, the efficacy rate and total effective rate were higher in rhBNP group than in sodium nitroprusside group (51.1% vs. 26.2 %,95.7% vs. 66. 7%, respectively, P<0. 05 and P<0. 01), and non-efficacy rate in rhBNP group was lower (4.3% vs. 33. 3%, P<0. 01). There was one death case in rhBNP group and three in sodium nitroprusside group. In rhBNP group, left ventricular ejection fraction values increased after 2 weeks of treatment [(46.2± 9.5)% vs. (38.1 ±6.0)%], P<0.05. Serum BNP level significantly decreased in rhlBNP group than in sodium nitroprusside group after 2 weeks of treatment (P<0.05).In rhBNP group, serum BNP and NE levels decreased 24 hours and 2 weeks after treatment (P<0. 01) and the levels furtherly reduced after 2 weeks (P<0.01). Serum ET-1 level decreased in rhBNP group than in sodium nitroprusside group 2 weeks after treatment (P<0.05). In rhBNP group, there was no significant difference in serum ET-1 level between baseline and 24 hours after treatment (P> 0. 05), but the ET-1 level decreased 2 weeks after treatment as compared with 24 hours after treatment (P<0.01). There were no significant differences between the two groups before and after treatment (P>0.05). Incidences of headache and hypotension were lower in rhBNP group than in sodium nitroprusside group (4.3% vs. 19.0%, 14.9% vs. 23.8%, both P<0.05),Conclusions RhBNP can be safely and effectively used for acute attack of CHF.

Objective: To construct effective short hairpin RNA (shRNA) recombinant plasmids targeting humanDystrophin Dp71 gene, and evaluate their interference effciency. Methods: hTree pairs of siRNA sequences targeting human Dp71 gene and one pair of control siRNA sequence were designed, synthesized, and then inserted into the pRNAT-U6.1/Neo vector. hTe shRNA recombinant vectors were evaluated by enzyme digestion and sequencing. Dp71-shRNA and control shRNA plasmids were transfected into human normal gastric epithelial cells (GES-1) and humanbronchial epithelium (HBE). Western blot was used to evaluate its interfering effciency. Results: Restriction enzyme digestion and sequencing showed that the Dp71-shRNA vectors were successfully constructed. Western blot displayed that Dp71 protein expression was reduced to a signiifcant degree atfer transfection with the 3 Dp71-shRNA plasmids, and Dp71-shRNA2 plasmid inhibit the Dp71 expression most effciently. Conclusion: Dp71-shRNA vectors have been successfully constructed. The 3 Dp71-shRNA plasmids can inhibit Dp71 expression in GES-1 and HBEC, with Dp71-shRNA2 plasmid displaying the highest inhibition effciency.

Aim To study the effects of cycle arrest and molecular mechanism in human leukemia HL-60 cells induced by diallyl disulfide ( DADS ) . Methods Cell count, colony formation in soft agar experiments and flow cytometry analysis were employed to observe the DADS-induced cell growth inhibition and the effect of cycle arrest in HL-60 cells. The expressions of Chk1/2 and its downstream element in HL-60 cells were detected by Western blot. Results Cell count revealed that population doubling time increased to 35. 03 h and 71. 82 h, respectively, from 19. 14 h in HL-60 cells treated with 60 and 120 μmol·L-1 DADS ( P<0. 05 ) . Colony formation in soft agar experiments showed that colony formation inhibition rate of HL-60 cells exposed to 30, 60, 90 and 120μmol·L-1 DADS increased to 35. 06%, 62. 10%, 93. 79% and 99. 35%, respectively ( P<0. 05 ) . Flow cytometry a-nalysis exhibited that HL-60 cells treated with 60 and 120 μmol · L-1 DADS for 24 h and 48 h arrested in G2/M phase in a concentration-and time-dependent manner ( P <0. 05 ) . Western blot disclosed that the expression of p-Chk1 increased in a time-dependent manner ( P <0. 05 ); however, Chk1, Chk2 and p-Chk2 were not changed in HL-60 cells treated with 60μmol·L-1 DADS (P >0. 05). The expression of Cdc25C, CyclinB1 and CDK1 decreased after treated with 60 μmol·L-1 DADS in a time-dependent manner ( P<0. 05 ) , but the expression of 14-3-3 protein did not change ( P>0. 05 ) . Conclusion DADS can in-hibit the proliferation of HL-60 cells, and induce G2/M arrest through Chk1/Cdc25 C/CyclinB1/CDK1 path-way.

AIM:To establish a simple and accurate HPLC method for quality evaluation and determination of 8 active constituents, i.e. Danshensu, Protocatechualdehyde,rosmarinic acid,Salvianolic acid B, Dihydrotanshinone, Cryptotanshinone, Tanshinone Ⅰand Tanshinone ⅡA in Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae, at the same time, in order to study the correlations of the contents of the 8 constituents. METHODS: Detected at 286 nm, analytes were separated on a ODS C_ 18 column(150 mm?4.6 mm, 10 ?m) eluted gradually with methanol and 1% tetrafuran in 1% formic acid water solution(3∶97)on the increasement of methanol from 3% to 70% in the whole analysis. After determination, SPSS 13.0 software was used to calculate the correlation between the 8 constituents. RESULTS: Under the above conditions, HPLC method was constructed to quantify 8 constituents,and their correlation coefficients were calculated. CONCLUSION: The result shows that the contents of the 8 constituents in Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge. vary greatly from different origins; and there are significant correlations between the contents of hydrophilic constituents such as Salvianolic acid B,Danshensu,rosmarinic acid, so do hydrophobic constituents like Cryptotanshinone,Tanshinone Ⅰ,Tanshinone ⅡA,but there is no correlation between the hydrophilic constituents and hydrophobic constituents.
