This study was aimed to investigate effect of aconite alkaloids on proliferation and apoptosis of hu-man gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 . Effects of different concentrations of aconite alkaloids on proliferation of human gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 were investigated with MTT assay; induced apoptosis and cell cy-cle blocking were detected with flow cytometer ( FCM ) . The results showed that the IC50 of aconite alkaloids on human gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 was 0 . 2318 ± 0 . 0022 , 0 . 1601 ± 0 . 0227 , 0 . 1031 ± 0 . 0231 mg/ml at 24 h , 48 h and 72 h , respectively , compared to the control group with significant difference ( P <0.01). When the aconite alkaloids concentration was 0.8 mg/ml, it appeared with obvious apoptosis. The apop-tosis rate was ( 59 . 38 ± 5 . 05 )%. The FCM detection showed that compared with control group , the percentage of S-phase cells increased in the treatment group . And a typical sub-diploid peak appeared before G0 / G1 phase . It was concluded that aconite alkaloids can inhibit the proliferation of human gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 in vitro, induce the apoptosis of cells and make SGC-7901 cells remain in S phase.

Objective To summarize our experience in the management of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) during aortic arch surgery.Methods From March 2007 to May 2010,58 consecutive patients,including 24 urgent and 34 selective operations underwent aortic arch surgery.Thirty-nine hemiarch and 19 total aortic arch replacement operations were performed.CPB was established by perfusion through femoral artery (42 cases) and right subclavian artery (RSA) ( 16 cases),of which 4 cases were carried out with antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP).Results The mean CPB time was ( 208.88 ± 136.45 ) min.The mean cerebral circulation arrest was ( 27.36 ± 11.50 ) min.Nasopharyngeal and rectal temperature were ( 16.01 ±2.67)℃ and ( 19.72 ±2.13)℃ respectively before DHCA was initiated.The mean times for cooling and rewarming were ( 50.91 ± 16.89) min and ( 88.97 ± 43.68 ) min.The mean time of intubation was (56.70 ± 45.19 ) h.The time in ICU was ( 5.68 ± 5.31 ) d,and the time of hospitalization was (30.11 ± 22.27 ) d.Acute renal failure,hypoxemia,and paraplegia occurred post-operatively in 4,19,and 2 patients,respectively.Four patients died post-operatively with a mortality of 6.90％.Compared with those received hemiarch replacement operation,the patients received total aortic arch replacement had statistically longer time of CPB([262.16 ±219.97]min vs [182.92 ±53.81] min,t =2.14,P ＜0.05),cerebral circulatory arrest ( [30.47 ± 15.86 ] win vs [25.85 ± 8.48 ] min,t =2.40,P ＜ 0.05 ),rewarming ( [110.00 ± 68.66 ] min vs [78.72 ± 17.31 ] min,t =2.69,P ＜ 0.05 ),and intubation ( [93.95 ± 131.89 ] h vs [38.08 ± 30.70 ] h,t =2.50,P ＜ 0.05 ).There was no significant difference in the times of these procedures between emergency surgery group and elective surgery group,between RSA and femoral artery cannulation groups.Conclusion It is crucial that the cooling and re-warming procedures during aortic arch surgery should be carried out slowly,gradually,and completely when DHCA was adopted alone.conclusion through right axillary artery or RSA was preferred for ACP,in order to accomplish the body circulation arrest at a relative high temperature,to shorten the CPB time,and to alleviate potential harmful effects of hypothermia.Meticulous management of CPB is one of the most important measures to improve the patients' outcome.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of heart rate variability to,and its correlation with ventricular arrhythmias in patients with structural heart disease.Methods 24 hours ambulatory electrocardiogram monitoring was administered during March 2012 and October 2013,and standard deviation of the NN interval (SDNN) in the time-domain analysis and sympathetic/vagal ratio in the frequency domain analysis were collected and retrospectively analyzed in 300 patients.Results The incidence rate of ventricular arrhythmias was higher in patients with structural heart disease in SDNN ＜100 ms group than in control group [4.1％ (3/74) vs.39.5％ (45/114),P＜0.01].The sympathetic/vagal ratio was significantly higher in group with structural heart disease and ventricular arrhythmia than in control group(19.9 ±2.3 vs.10.1 ±1.7,P＜0.01)The time-domain index SDNN was negatively correlated with the frequency domain index (sympathetic/vagal ratio) (r=-0.819,P ＜0.01).Conclusions SDNN ＜100ms and the increased sympathetic/vagal ratio can be considered as the predictors of ventricular arrhythmias in patients with structural heart disease.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the indications,findings,interventions of fibrobronchoscopy(FB) in neonates and their correlative diseases with neonatal FB results and clinical data.Methods Retrospective case series of 243 consecutive patients of 28 days old or younger were investigated underwent FB for the first time from January 2010 to December 2014,at a tertiary care hospital.The common indications for FB and detection rate of respiratory tract diseases were collected.If the findings of FB had significant associations with premature birth and other diseases were analyzed.Associations between interventions and basic illnesses were also analyzed.Results Of the 243 patients undergoing 275 procedures of FB,201 cases were boys(73.1％).The age of FB was (13.34 ± 9.76) days and the weight was (3.08 ± 0.68) kg.Forty-five cases were premature infants (16.4％).A total of 254 procedures were found to have congenital diseases (92.4％),and 177 cases of them had congenital heart diseases (CHD) (64.4％).Common indications for FB were dyspnea(140 cases,50.9％),tachypnea(82 cases,29.8％),and stridor(71 cases,25.8％).A total of 188 upper airway lesions were found and the most common findings were laryngomalacia(56 cases,20.4％) and vocal cord paralysis(bilateral/unilateral,50 cases,18.2％).A total of 315 lower airway lesions were found and the most common findings were airway mucosal inflammation (98 cases,35.6％),trachea and main bronchial stenosis (73 cases,26.5 ％).A total of 21 cases (7.6％) underwent supraglottoplasty during or after FB,while 17 cases (6.2％) underwent tracheal dilation and 10 cases (3.6％) underwent tracheotomy.Compared with non-CHD neonates,neonates with CHD were statistically significantly less likely to have congenital lesions statistically,such as laryngomalacia(15.8％ vs.28.6％,P =0.012),bilateral vocal cord lesions(6.2％ vs.21.4％,P =0.000) and congenital laryngeal dysplasia(0 vs.7.1％,P =0.001).The tracheotomy(0 vs.10.2％,P =0.000) and supraglottoplasty(2.3％ vs.17.3％,P =0.000) were more rare.Nevertheless,they were more likely to have secondary lesions such as the left main bronchial stenosis caused by extrinsic compression (23.7％ vs.1.0％,P =0.000),abnormal bronchial anatomy(9.6％ vs.2.0％,P =0.018),left vocal cord paralysis(9.0％ vs.1.0％,P =0.008) and airway mucosal inflammation(41.8％ vs.24.5％,P =0.004).The tracheostenosis and main broncial stenosis (37.3％ vs.7.1％,P =0.000) with long-term intubation(78.5％ vs.58.2％,P =0.000) were more common.There was no significant difference between term neonates and premature infants in the detection rate of respiratory tract diseases (P ＞ 0.05),tracheotomy (0 vs.4.3 ％,P =0.322),supraglottoplasty (13.3 ％ vs.6.5 ％,P =0.205) or long-term i ntubation (80.0％ vs.69.6％,P =0.157).Complications caused by procedure were rare and mild.Conclusions FB can detect whether the neonates with dyspnea,tachypnea and stridor have laryngomalacia,vocal cord paralysis,airway mucous edema,tracheal and main bronchial stenosis and other signs,and FB may play an important role in diagnosis,treatment and prognosis evaluation of neonatal respiratory diseases.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of vitamin D drops combined with insulin aspart in the treatment of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and the effect of vitamin D drops on the serum levels of 1, 25 dihydroxyvitamin D 3 [1, 25(OH) 2D 3] and retinol binding protein 4 (RBP4). Methods:A total of 94 GDM patients admitted to the Baoding Second Central Hospital from March 2019 to March 2021 were selected and randomly divided into an observation group and a control group with 47 cases each using a random number table method. The control group received subcutaneous injection of insulin aspartate for treatment, while the observation group received oral vitamin D drops for treatment. After 4 weeks of continuous treatment, the blood glucose control effect and adverse reactions were observed in both groups. The glucose metabolism indicators of the two groups were compared before and after treatment, including fasting blood glucose (FPG), 2-hour postprandial blood glucose (2-hour PG), insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), and pancreatic islets β Cell Function Index (HOMA-β) and serum levels of 1, 25(OH) 2D 3, RBP4, lipoprotein related phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2), and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1). All patients were followed up until the end of pregnancy, and Statistical analysis was conducted on the adverse outcomes of two groups of mothers and infants. Results:The time to reach the standard for FPG and 2-hour PG in the observation group, as well as the time for both to reach the standard were significantly shorter than those in the control group (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of dawn phenomenon and hypoglycemia between the observation group and the control group (all P>0.05). After treatment, FPG and 2-hour PG in both groups were significantly reduced compared to those before treatment (all P<0.05); However, after treatment, there was no statistically significant difference between the groups (all P>0.05). Compared with before treatment, HOMA-IR in both groups significantly decreased (all P<0.05), All HOMA- β significantly increased (all P<0.05); And the improvement was more significant in the observation group (all P<0.05). After treatment, the serum levels of 1, 25(OH) 2D 3 in the observation group significantly increased compared to that before treatment ( P<0.05), but there was no significant change in the control group before and after treatment ( P>0.05). After treatment, the levels of serum RBP4, Lp-PLA2, and VCAM-1 in both groups significantly decreased compared to those before treatment (all P<0.05); After treatment, the serum levels of RBP4, Lp-PLA2, and VCAM-1 in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The incidence of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes in the observation group was 14.9%(7/47) and 10.6%(5/47), respectively, which were lower than those in the control group [34.0%(16/47) and 27.7%(13/47)] (all P<0.05). There were 8 cases of hypoglycemia in 94 patients (3 in the observation group and 5 in the control group), and no other adverse events occurred. Conclusions:The combination of vitamin D drops and insulin aspartate in the treatment of GDM can safely, effectively, quickly, and steadily control patients′ blood sugar, improve IR and pancreatic islets β The effect of cell function on reducing the incidence of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes may be related to increasing serum 1, 25(OH) 2D 3 levels and down-regulating the expression levels of serum RBP4, Lp-PLA2, and VCAM-1.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between serum ferritin (SF) level and liver damage in the acute stage of dengue fever.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze 171 cases diagnosed with dengue fever as dengue fever group and 130 healthy patients as control group in Hangzhou 3A grade hospital from July to December 2017. Clinical data, SF and liver function related indicators were collected from both groups: alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total bilirubin (TBIL) to analyze the correlation between liver damage and SF in patients with dengue fever.Results:ALT, AST, and SF levels were significantly higher in the dengue fever group than those in the healthy control group ( Z = 11.553, 15.054 and 15.163, P < 0.001). SF levels were higher in the dengue fever combined with liver damage group than those without the liver damage group ( z = 6.930, P < 0.001). However, there was no statistically significant differences in age, gender, peak body temperature, and history of liver disease ( P > 0.05). In addition, Spearman’s correlation analysis showed that SF was positively correlated with ALT, AST, and TBIL ( r = 0.464, 0.531 and 0.315, P < 0.001). Among dengue patients with different SF levels, there were significant difference in ALT, AST levels and incidence of liver damage ( H = 14.240 and 17.584, χ2 = 49.547, P < 0.001). Patients with higher SF levels had higher ALT, AST levels and incidence of liver damage. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that hyperferritinemia (SF&ge;500 ng/ml) was the risk factor for dengue fever combined with liver damage ( OR = 8.120, P < 0.001). Furthermore, ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC for SF to judge dengue fever combined liver damage was 0.846 (95% CI: 0.785-0.908), and the sensitivity and specificity when the SF cut-off value was 1 506 ng/ml were 74.8% and 83.3%. Conclusion:There is a certain correlation between the SF level and the degree of liver damage in acute stage of dengue fever patients, and hyperferritinemia is a risk factor for dengue fever combined with liver damage.
