Objective To investigate the activation of nuclear factor-B (NF-B)and hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1)in patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods Subjects were classified into mild-to-moderate OSHAS group (n = 16), severe OSAHS group (n = 14) and the matched control group (n=30). Gene and protein expressions of NF-B and HIF-1 were measured by RT-PCR, Western blot in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Results NF-κB p65 mRNA and NF-κB p65 protein,HIF-1α mRNA and HIF-1α protein in PBMC were significantly higher in severe OSAHS group than those in mild–to-moderate group and control group (P<0.01). But there were no significant difference in NF-κB p65 mRNA and NF-κB p65 protein between mild-to-moderate group and control group (P=0.068, P=0.254 respectively). Only gene (P<0.05) not the protein (P=0.777) of HIF-1αwas higher in mild-to-moderate as compared with control group. Both NF-κB p65 mRNA and HIF-1αmRNA were positively correlated with AHI (r=0.493, P=0.006, r=0.508, P=0.004), while negatively correlated with nighttime lowest blood oxygen saturation (LSaO2)(r=-0.488, P=0.006, r=-0.46, P=0.011). There was a positive correlation between NF-κB p65 protein level and AHI (r=0.669, P<0.001). HIF-1αprotein level was positively correlated with AHI, ODI (r=0.628, P=0.001;r=0.480, P=0.018). There were positive correlations between NF-κBp65mRNA and HIF-1αmRNA (r=0.543, P=0.002), NF-κBp65 and HIF-1αprotein respectively (r=0.716, P<0.001). Conclusions As the gene and protein of NF-κB and HIF-1 were up-regulated in patients with OSAHS, and also positively correlated with the severity of sickness. We conclude that both NF-κB and HIF-1 were involed in the pathogenesis of OSAHS.

Objective To evaluate the influence of nuclear factor (NF)-κB activation in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) on vascular inflammation in elderly patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods The 40 elderly subjects (≥65years old) were classed into control, mild, moderate and severe groups (n = 10, respectively)according to polysomnography (PSG). After PSG, the samples of peripheral venous blood were collected, and PBMCs were isolated. Nuclear protein was extracted and NF-κB was measured by Western blotting. ELISA was applied to measure the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in serum. Blood samples from 10 cases (moderate 5 and severe 5) were measured again after four weeks of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment. Results The expression of NF-κB in PBMCs and the concentration of TNF-α in serum were significantly increased in severe and moderate OSAHS patients compared with controls (P<0. 05). The NF-κB expression was positively correlated with AHI (r=0. 617, P< 0. 001) and TNF-α concentration (r = 0. 498, P< 0. 001 ), negatively correlated with LSaO2 (r= -0. 548, P<0. 001), and not correlated with IL-6 concentration (r=0. 365, P=0. 201).The CPAP treatment could significantly inhibit NF-κB activation in PBMCs and reduce TNF-αexcretion (P<0.05, respectively). Conclusions PBMCs may play an important role in vascular endothelial injury through NF-κB expression and TNF-α excretion in elderly OSAHS patients, which is closely associated with the severity of the syndrome and night hypoxemia. CPAP treatment can inhibit the pathophysiologic process effectively.

Objective To approach the significance of changes of percutaneous-arterial blood carbon dioxide partial pressure difference [P(tc-a)CO2] in liquid resuscitation of patients with septic shock. Methods One hundred and sixty-eight patients with septic shock admitted and treated in the Department of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Quzhou People's Hospital from January 2015 to January 2018 were enrolled, and after early goal-directed therapy (EGDT) for 6 hours, according to central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) and lactate clearance (LC), they were divided into ScvO2 and LC achievement group (ScvO2 ≥ 0.7 and LC≥10%), ScvO2 achievement group (ScvO2 ≥ 0.7 and LC < 10%), LC achievement group (ScvO2 < 0.7 and LC≥10%), and un-achievement group (ScvO2 < 0.7 and LC < 10%). The mechanical ventilation time, ICU hospitalization time, 28-day mortality, P(tc-a)CO2 etc. were compared among the four groups; the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the predictive value of P(tc-a)CO2 for 28-day prognosis in patients with septic shock. Results The trends of mechanical ventilation time, ICU hospitalization time, and 28-day mortality were all ScvO2 and LC achievement group < LC achievement group < ScvO2 achievement group < un-achievement group [the mechanical ventilation times (days) were respectively 6.12±2.59, 8.43±3.24, 11.78±4.12, 13.03±4.75, ICU hospitalization times (days) were 10.31±2.32, 13.85±3.56, 16.41±3.83, 18.52±4.05, and 28-day mortality rates were 28.85% (15/52), 40.91% (18/44), 51.28% (20/39), 69.70% (23/33)] and the differences among the four groups were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). After 6 hours of EGDT, the heart rate (HR), lactate (Lac), and P(tc-a)CO2 were lower than those before fluid resuscitation, but the mean arterial pressure (MAP), central venous pressure (CVP), and ScvO2 were higher than those before fluid resuscitation among four groups. Except CVP, the differences of other indicators compared among the ScvO2 and LC achievement group, ScvO2 achievement group, LC achievement group and un-achievement group were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). After 6 hours of EGDT, HR, Lac, P(tc-a)CO2 in ScvO2 and LC achievement group, ScvO2 achievement group and LC achievement group were significantly lower than those in the un-achievement group [HR (bpm): 89.05±29.43, 98.82±30.21, 94.33±28.64 vs. 112.85±32.74, Lac (mmol/L): 2.97±1.95, 3.87±2.32, 2.69±1.52 vs. 4.17±2.44, P(tc-a)CO2 (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0133 kPa): 7.18±4.61, 12.61±5.34, 9.71±4.11 vs. 16.56±10.19], MAP and ScvO2 were significantly higher than those of the un-achievement group [MAP (mmHg): 88.05±21.67, 77.33±18.56, 83.11±19.71 vs. 70.32±18.79, ScvO2: 0.76±0.14, 0.75±0.16, 0.67±0.14 vs. 0.63±0.18, all P < 0.05]. The P(tc-a)CO2 of 28 days survivors were significantly lower than that of the deaths among four groups (mmHg: 5.78±2.27 vs. 14.14±3.65, 7.07±2.81 vs. 15.06±4.11, 6.35±2.09 vs. 14.94±4.06, 7.93±3.81 vs. 18.34±4.63, all P < 0.05). When P(tc-a)CO2 > 7.24 mmHg predicted 28-day mortality in ScvO2 and LC achievement group, the sensitivity was 89.29%, specificity was 91.45%, and the area under ROC curve (AUC) was 0.86; when P(tc-a)CO2 > 9.46 mmHg predicted 28-day mortality in LC achievement group, the sensitivity was 88.72%, specificity was 85.83% and AUC was 0.91; when P(tc-a)CO2 >12.05 mmHg predicted 28-day mortality in ScvO2 achievement group, the sensitivity was 82.79%, specificity was 86.90% and AUC was 0.79; when P(tc-a)CO2 > 16.22 mmHg predicted 28-day mortality in un-achievement group, the sensitivity was 73.35%, specificity was 80.68% and AUC was 0.68. Conclusion P(tc-a)CO2 can be used as an indicator to evaluate fluid resuscitation effect and prognosis in patients with septic shock.
