Objective To assess whether end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure (PET CO2) can predict the fluid responsiveness in septic shock patients.Methods Septic shock patients under mechanical ventilation without spontaneous breathing and with the need of a fluid challenge test were included in this study.Heart rate,central venous pressure,pulse pressure,PErCO2,and CI before and after the fluid challenge test were conducted in all the patients.Results Of the 48 septic shock patients included,34 had preload responsiveness,14 had no responsiveness.△CI and △PET CO2 after the fluid challenge test involume responders were (0.85 ± 0.47) L · min-1 · m-2 and (3.5 ± 2.5) mmHg respectively,which were higher than those in no volume responders (P ＜ 0.05).The fluid-induced changes in PET CO2 and CI were correlated (r =0.072,P ＜ 0.05).The AUCRoc of fluid challenge-induced △PET CO2 as the predictor for volume responsiveness was 0.943,and its sensitivity was 87.9％ and specificity was 93.4％ with a critical value of 5％.The AUCRoc of △PP as the predictor for volume responsiveness was 0.801,and its sensitivity was 68.1％ and specificity was 73.2％ with a critical value of 10％.Conclusion The changes of PETCO2 induced by a fluid challenge test can predict fluid responsiveness with reliability,and have a better sensitivity and specificity than the changes of PP.

Objective To develop a canine model of neurogenic bladder and to evaluate it with urodynamics. Methods Eight female dogs were divided into 2 groups:4 in suprasacral and 4 in infrasacral group.The spinal cord was transected at the level of 5th～6th lumbar intervertebra foramen,and sacral cord was kept intact in suprasacral model while in infrasacral model it was destroyed completely.The urodynamic studies were performed in each dog at the time points of preopertation and 6 months postoperation in both groups.The parameters included bladder capacity,detrusor pressure,bladder compliance and urethral pressure. Results The dogs after operation could never move their tails and keep their hips dry.Their hind limbs presented flaccid paralyses and the abdomens dilated during the first postoperative week.Then the mobility of the hind limbs in both groups recovered slowly,but the abdominal signs were improved obviously only in suprasacral dogs.In suprasacral group,bladder capacity and compliance were decreased by 37.3% and 52.1%,respectively, but detrusor pressure (33.3%) and urethral pressure (17.3%) were significantly increased( P

Objective To compare the timeliness, success and mortality rates between the modified carotid artery puncture method ( MCAPM) and standard suture method ( SSM) in the establishment of rat model of a middle cerebral ar?tery occlusion ( MCAO) . Methods Thirty?two male rats were randomly and equally assigned into MCAPM group and SSM group. The MCAO models were established by inserting a thread into the common carotid artery ( CCA) . 24 h after modeling, the rats of the two groups were evaluated with Bederson neurological scores, and the modeling success rate and mortality rate were analyzed. Results The suture insertion times, success rates and mortality rates of the MCAPM vs. SSM groups were (82?3 ±17?4) s versus (164?6 ± 22?0) s (P<0?01), 87?5% versus 68?75% (P>0?05), and 6?25% versus 18?75% (P>0?05). Conclusions MCAPM can be used to establish the rat model of MCAO due to its simplicity, mild wound and feasibility.

Objective: To systematically evaluate risk factors for cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CMM), so as to provide the evidence for formulating CMM prevention and control strategies. Methods: Publications pertaining to the risk factors for CMM were retrieved from databases, including SinoMed, CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, PubMed and Cochrane Library from inception to March 31, 2023. Meta-analysis was performed using the software RevMan 5.4 and Stata 16.0, and sensitivity analysis was performed using the leave-one-out method. The publication bias was evaluated using Egger's test. Results: Totally 494 publications were screened, and 20 publications were included in the final analysis, including 13 cohort studies (covering 1 940 000 participants) and 7 cross-sectional studies (covering 13 000 000 participants). Meta-analysis revealed that female (OR=1.54, 95%CI: 1.40-1.71), middle age (OR=3.80, 95%CI: 3.33-4.34), elderly (OR=2.82, 95%CI: 1.48-5.37), urban resident (OR=1.41, 95%CI: 1.27-1.57), higher education level (OR=2.01, 95%CI: 1.35-3.01), higher economic level (OR=1.21, 95%CI: 1.16-1.25), overweight (OR=1.92, 95%CI: 1.64-2.26), obesity (OR=3.01, 95%CI: 2.30-3.93), central obesity (OR=1.70, 95%CI: 1.12-2.56), smoking (OR=1.27, 95%CI: 1.07-1.51), alcohol consumption (OR=1.27, 95%CI: 1.01-1.59), irregular diet (OR=1.10, 95%CI: 1.02-1.18), insufficient intake of vegetables and fruits (OR=1.12, 95%CI: 1.07-1.17), lack of sleep at night (OR=1.17, 95%CI: 1.08-1.27), and depression (OR=1.50, 95%CI: 1.33-1.69) were risk factors for CMM. Sensitivity analysis of effects of central obesity and alcohol consumption were not robust. No publication bias was examined by Egger's test. Conclusions Female, middle age, elderly, urban resident, higher education level, higher economic level, overweight, obesity, central obesity, smoking, alcohol consumption, irregular diet, insufficient intake of vegetables and fruits, lack of sleep at night and depression are risk factors for CMM.

OBJECTIVETo explore the molecule mechanism of Salidroside inducing directional differentiation of mouse mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into neuronal cells.

METHODSThe mouse multipotent mesenchymal precursor cell line (D1) was taken as the objective. Cultured MSCs were divided into the negative control group (complete culture solution), the positive control group (containing 1 mmol/L β-mercaptoethanol), the Salidroside induced group (20 mg/L Salidroside), and the blocked group (20 ng/ ml DKK1, a special inhibitor of Wnt/β-catenin signal pathway). All cells were inoculated in a 6-well plate (1 x 10(4) cells/cm2) and grouped for 24 h. The expression of p-catenin was detected by fluorescence Immunochemistry in the negative control group, the positive control group, and the Salidroside induced group. The expression of neuron-specific enolase (NSE), beta 3 class III tubulin (β-tubulin III), nuclear receptor related factor 1 (Nurr1), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) mRNA, Wnt3a, β-catenin, low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein6 (LRP6), Axin mRNA were detected using reverse transcrip- tion PCR (RT-PCR). The expression of β-catenin and NSE protein were analyzed by Western blot in the negative control group, the positive control group, and the Salidroside induced group. Ca2+ chelating agents (EGTA), L-type Ca2+ channel blocker (Nifedpine), and IP3Ks special inhibitor (LY294002) were used to block Ca2+ signal pathway respectively. The expression of Wnt3a, LRP-6, Axin, glycogen syn- thase kinase (GSK-3), and β-catenin mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. The β-catenin protein expression was analyzed using Western blot.

RESULTSCompared with the positive control group, β-catenin protein was strong positively expressed; the expression of Wnt3a, β-catenin, LRP6, Axin, NSE, β-tubulin III, Nurr1 mRNA, and NSE protein were obviously up-regulated in the Salidroside induced group (P < 0.01). Compared with the positive control group and the Salidroside induced group, β-catenin, NSE, Nurr1, and β-tubulin III mRNA expression decreased; β-catenin and NSE protein expression were also down-regulated in the blocked group (P < 0.01). Compared with the Salidroside induced group, the expression of Wnt3a, LRP-6, β-catenin, and Axin mRNA were down-regulated in the Ca2+ signal blocked group and the salidroside induced group (P < 0.01, P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSalidroside affected directional differentia- tion of MSCs into neuronal cells through Wnt/β-catenin and Ca2+ signal pathway.

Protocarcinogenic gene Her-2/neu was closely related to the development of gastric cancer. Herceptin is an antibody according to Her-2/neu and is used for treating breast cancer. Topo Ⅱ α is the important Nuclear enzymes needed by DNA duplicate, and is closely related to the proliferation of malignant tumors, so it is the important target enzymes of cancer chemotherapy. Her-2/neu and Topo Ⅱ α are located in the same chromosomes, there are correlation between the two genes' proliferation or loss. We reviewed the expression of Her-2/neu and Topo Ⅱ α in the stomach and the new progress of the correlation between the two genes home and abroad in this paper, which provides new methods for the prevention and treatment of gastric cancer.
