Objective To investigate the risk factors for early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with ischemic stroke. Methods The consecutive patients with new acute ischemic stroke within 24 h were enrol ed. They were divided into either an END or a non-END group. Their relevant medical history, baseline clinical data, imaging examinations and laboratory test results in both groups were compared. Results A total of 95 patients with acute ischemic stroke were enrol ed, including 32 in the END group and 63 in the non-END group. There were significant differences in the proportion of patients in diabetes mel itus (χ2 =6. 081, P=0. 014), baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score >15 (χ2 =9. 851, P=0. 002), baseline infarct volume >30 cm3 (χ2 =10. 815, P=0. 001), and fever (χ2 =6. 642, P=0. 010), as wel as the fasting glucose (t=2. 632, P=0. 010), homocysteine (t =2. 997, P=0. 003), C-reactive protein (t=2. 349, P=0. 021), baseline NIHSS (Z=497. 5, P=0. 001), and baseline infarct volume (Z=544. 5, P<0. 001) between the 2 groups. Furthermore, there were significant differences in the proportions of patients in large artery atherosclerotic stroke (χ2 =24. 539, P<0. 001 ) and smal arterial occlusive stroke (χ2 = 27. 913, P< 0. 001 ) in the TOAST classification, as wel as the total anterior circulation stroke (χ2 =7. 578, P<0. 006) and partial anterior circulation stroke (χ2 =4. 818, P<0. 028) in the OSCP classification. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that fasting glucose >6. 0 mmol/L (odds ratio [OR] 6. 951, 95%confidence interval [CI] 2. 159-22. 348; P=0. 001), homocysteine >15 μmol/L (OR 3. 301, 95% CI 1. 028-10. 595; P=0. 045), NIHSS score >15 (OR 4. 174, 95% CI 1. 772-14. 870;P=0. 028), infarct volume >30 cm3 (OR 4. 996, 95% CI 1. 334-18. 717; P=0. 017), and fever (OR 4. 528, 95% CI 1. 334-15. 372;P=0. 015) were the independent risk factors for occurring END in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Conclusions The baseline glucose, NIHSS score, infarct volume, homocysteine, and increased body temperature are the independent risk factors for occurring EDN in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Objective:To study the protective effects of trimetazidine (TMZ) on mitochondrial in myocardial ischemia reperfusion rats and its mechanism. Methods: Fifty SD rats were randomly divided into four groups; the pseudooperation group, the saline group and two TMZ treated groups(5 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg). In the pseudooperation group, the coronary artery was not ligated, but the chest was opened. Other groups were subjected to myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury. The serum level of mal onaldehyole ( MDA ) , superoxide dismutase ( SOD ) , glutathione ( GSH ) , glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) and the accumulation of Ca2+ in myocardial mitochondrial were detected at the time of 30 min ischemia and 40 min reperfusion. The myocyte ultrastnicture was also observed by electron microscope in the four groups. Results: Compared with the pseudooperation group, the MDA and total Ca2+ were significantly higher and the SOD, GSH, and GSH-PX were significantly lower in saline group and treatment groups. Compared with the saline group, the MDA and total Ca2+ was significantly lower and the SOD, GSH, and GSH-PX were significantly higher in the treatment groups. Conclusion: TMZ could significantly reduce lipid peroxidation in myocardial mitochondrial induced by ischemia and ische-mia-reperfusion. The mechanism may be that TMZ could increase the content of GSH and the acvitity of SOD and GSH-PX, and enhance its antioxidant production. TMZ could protect the cardiac cells by reducing calcium overload in myocardial mitochondrial.

OBJECTIVE To investigate deep fungal hospital infection and methods of its decreasing. METHODS Case histories of near 3 years of hospitalized patients from Jan 2002 to Dec 2004 were analyzed according to Diagnosis Standard of Nosocomical Infection under the items,such as the patients,age,underlying disease,sample,strain,and species distribution. RESULTS There were 360 fungus strains belonged to 15 species in all samples;the patients age was 14-94 with 20 kinds of various underlying diseases;the fungi included Candida albicans,and C.tropicalis,accounted for 61.1% and 17.2%,respectively;the samples were sputum,urine,vaginal secretion,BLA,throat swab and pus,which were 42.2%,21.1%,13.9%,8.4%,5.8%,and 3.6%,respectively;the respiratory department,ICU,and urology department were mainly involved. CONCLUSIONS To prevent fungal infection, measures such as hospital′s environment and management including reasonable use of antibiotics play a great role in monitoring hospital fungal infection and its epidemiology.

Objective:To study the protective effect of trimetazidine(TMZ) on myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury and its mechanism.Methods:Totally 50 SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:the pseudooperation group,the saline group and the TMZ treated groups(5 mg?kg -1 and 10 mg?kg -1 ).In the pseudooperation group the coronary artery was not ligated but the chest was opened,the other groups were the model of myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury.The level of serum creatine phosphokinase(CK) was detected at ischemia 30 min and reperfusion 40 min; The reperfusion injury myocardial malonaldehyole(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione(GSH),glutathione peroxidase(GSH Px) were detected at reperfusion 40 min.Results:The level of CK was significantly lower in treated groups than in saline group both at ischemia 30 min and reperfusion 40 min;Compared with the pseudooperation group,the MDA was higher and the SOD,GSH and GSH Px were significantly lower in saline group and treated groups;Compared with the saline group,the MDA was higher and the SOD,GSH and GSH Px were significantly lower in treated groups.Conclusion:TMZ can inhibit enzyme leaking from the ischemia reperfusion myocardial cells,and protect the cardiac cells against ischemia reperfusion injury to some extent.The mechanism may be that TMZ can reduce the injury of lipid peroxidation and harmful metabolites to cardiac cell membrane by increasing the content of GSH,the free radical cleaner,and enhancing the activity of SOD and GSH Px.

Objective:To investigate the effect of microRNA-155(miR-155) on transforming growth factor β2 (TGF-β2)-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition of human retinal pigment epithelial cells and its mechanism.Methods:The retinal pigment epithelial cell ARPE-19 cell line was used as the research object.The cells cultured with DMEM medium were served as the control group and the cells cultured with DMEM medium containing 10 ng/ml TGF-β2 were served as the TGF-β2 group.The ARPE-19 cells transfected with miR-155 inhibitor were set as the miR-155 inhibitor group and the ARPE-19 cells transfected with miR-155 negative control were set as the miR-155 negative control group, and the cells in the two groups were cultured in DMEM medium containing 10 ng/ml TGF-β2.After 48 hours cell culture, reverse transcription-PCR was used to detect the expression of miR-155 in each group, and scratch migration test and Transwell chamber test were used to detect cell migration and invasion ability, and Western blot was used to detect the expressions of phosphate and tension homology deleted on chromosome ten gene (PTEN), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), protein kinase B (Akt), p-Akt and epithelial mesenchymal markers E-cadherin (E-cad), zonula occludens protein 1 (ZO-1), F-actin, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), fibronectin 1 (FN-l) vimentin, proteins.The target gene prediction library predicted miR-155 target gene and fluorescein enzyme reporter vectors were used to identify target genes.Results:After 48 hours of culture, the cells in the control group were in good condition with tight adherence and regular shape.The cells in the TGF-β2 group showed more obvious spindle shape with loose arrangement, and most of the cells were fibrous.The relative expression level of miR-155 in the cells of TGF-β2 group was 0.92±0.14, which was significantly higher than 0.35±0.06 of the control group ( t=7.242, P=0.003). The relative expression level of miR-155 in the cells of miR-155 inhibitor group was 0.21±0.03, which was significantly lower than 0.98±0.09 of the miR-155 negative control group ( t=12.421, P<0.01). The migration rate was higher and the number of cells passing through basement membrane was more in the TGF-β2 group than those of the control group, and the migration rate was higher and the number of cells passing through basement membrane of miR-155 was more in the miR-155 negative control group than those of the miR-155 inhibitor group, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the relative expression levels of PTEN, E-cad, ZO-1, F-actin protein were decreased, while the relative expression levels of PI3K and the p-Akt/Akt ratio were increased, and the relative expression levels of α-SMA, FN-1, vimentin proteins were increased in the TGF-β2 group, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.01). Compared with the miR-155 negative control group, the relative expression levels of E-cad, ZO-1, F-actin and PTEN proteins were increased, while the relative expression levels of α-SMA, FN-l, vimentin, PI3K and the p-Akt/Akt ratio were decreased in the miR-155 inhibitor group, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.01). Target gene prediction library prediction and luciferase reporter vector identification confirmed that PTEN was a downstream target gene of miR-155. Conclusions:miR-155 can promote the TGF-β2-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition progress in human retinal pigment epithelial cells, and its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the expression of the target gene PTEN and stimulating the activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
