Objective To investigate the effects of FKBP12.6 gene transfection on the contractility of ventricular myocytes of rats with heart failure.Methods Rat model of heart failure was established by a surgical operation of abdominal aortic stenosis.The enzymatic hydrolysis was employed to isolate the rats' ventricular myocytes.Mediated by adenovirus the FKBP12.6 gene was transfected into ventricular myocytes.Ad-GFP infected cardiac myocytes from heart failure rats and normal rats were used as control.Western blotting and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) were used to detect the specific overexpression of FKBP12.6.Transfected ventricular myocytes were loaded with the membrane-permeant Ca2+ dye X-rhod-1-AM.Under the condition of field stimulation,the laser confocal microscope in line-scan and plane-scan mode was used to detect the Ca2+ transients and myocytes contraction.Results The mRNA and protein levels of FKBP12.6 in the myocytes of rats with heart failure were significantly lower than that in normal myocytes(0.47?0.08 vs 0.96?0.12,0.25?0.04 vs 0.48?0.07,P

Objective To study the inhibitory effect of Curcumin combined with Glycyrrhetinic acid on proliferation of HepG-2 cell,and probe the reasonability and scientificity of curcuma combined with glycyrrhiza.Methods The CCK-8 method was used to test the proliferation inhibition rate of HepG-2 cells after treated with Curcumin (10.00,5.00,2.50,and 1.25 μg/mL),Glycyrrhetinic acid (20.0,10.0,5.0,and 2.5 μg/mL) and Curcumin combined with Glycyrrhetinic acid in corresponding concentration for different time (8,16,or 24 h).Flow cytometry was used to detect the cell apoptosis and the cell cycle of HepG-2 cells after treated with Curcumin (5 μg/mL),Glycyrrhetinic acid (10 μg/mL) and Curcumin combined with Glycyrrhetinic acid in corresponding concentration for 24 h.Results Curcumin,Glycyrrhetinic acid and drug combination obviously inhibited the proliferation of HepG-2 cells in a time-and concentration-dependent manner,the effects of combination group was more stronger and showed additive effect or synergistic effect.The apoptosis rate of HepG-2 cells was significantly increased after treated with three groups of drug,combination group showed additive effect;Curcumin,Glycyrrhetinic acid and the drug combination showed significant G2 arrest.Conclusion Curcumin combined with Glycyrrhetinic acid has positive effect on inhabiting the proliferation and promoting apoptosis of HepG-2 cell.Curcuma combined with glycyrrhiza possess reasonability and scientificity.

Objective To observe the effect of early intervention on motor and mental development in premature infants. Methods 108 cases of hospital-born premature infants were divided into early intervention group (n=57) and control group (n=51). All the cases accepted conventional treatment and health-care, and the intervention group accepted the early intervention in addition. They were assessed with psychomotor development index (PDI) and mental development index (MDI) of Bayley Scales of Infant Development when they were 1 or 2 years old. The incidence of cerebral palsy when they were 2 years old were recorded. Results 2 cases (1 for each) lost during the follow-up.The PDI and MDI were more in the intervention group than in the control group (P<0.05), both as the 1 and 2 years old. The incidence of cerebral palsy was less in the intervention group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The early intervention can promote mental and motor development in premature infants, and reduce the incidence of cerebral palsy later.

Objective:To explore the preoperative diagnostic value of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN).Methods:Data of 62 patients with IPMN confirmed by pathology who underwent EUS before surgery from 2008 to 2018 in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were analyzed. Characteristics that could distinguish low-grade dysplasia (LGD), high-grade dysplasia (HGD) and invasive carcinoma (IC) were explored. A scoring system based on EUS findings was established to determine the preoperative pathology of IPMN by using logistic model.Results:Of the 62 patients, 15 (24.2%) were diagnosed as having LGD, 20 (32.3%) HGD and 27 (43.5%) IC. Univariate analysis showed that the size of mural nodules and width of main pancreatic duct (MPD) were predictive factors for IPMN pathology. The possibility of higher pathological grading would increase 8% for every 1 mm increment in mural nodules. Multivariate analysis showed that only mural nodules≥5 mm ( OR=7.31, 95% CI : 2.49-21.40, P<0.001) was an independent risk factor to distinguish LGD, HGD and IC. Mural nodules≥5 mm, main pancreatic duct (MPD)≥10 mm and mural nodules <5 mm were assigned 2 points, 1 point and 1 point, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, and area under receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) of the EUS scoring system to distinguish benign and malignant IPMN were 0.830, 0.867, and 0.867, respectively. Conclusion:Preoperative EUS helps to distinguish LGD, HGD and IC. The size of mural nodules and the width of MPD are vital risk factors to distinguish benign and malignant IPMN.

BACKGROUND: Cognitive impairments are often accompanied in patients with silent cerebral infarction (SCI) and depression, and there is still no reliable objective assessing method for the evaluation.OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to probe into the value of auditory P300 in detecting the cognitive impairment in SCI patients with depression.DESIGN: A golden standard control study.SETTING: Department of Neurology, Xi 'an Central Hospital; Department of Neurology, the Second Hospital of Xi' an Jiao Tong University.PARTICIPANTS: Thirty-eight SCI patients were selected from the Outpatient Department of Neurology, the Second Hospital of Xi' an Jiao Tong University between January 2002 to May 2003, including 10 got dizziness,11 got poor concentration, 8 got headache, 5 got numbness of extremities and 4 got syncope. Among them, 26 were detected by CT and 12 by MRI.The patients'aged 45 to 63 years with mean age of (57.3±5.1) years, including 20 males and 18 females.METHODS: The existence of depressive symptoms was measured with the 17-item Hamilton depression scale (HAMD). In this scale, the total score ranged from 0 to 52, with higher score indicating more severe depressive symptoms, and the patient was considered as having depression if the HAMD score was ≥ 9. HAMD tests were administered by two psychiatrists,who were experienced in psychiatric disorders in stroke and other somatic diseases, and the two psychiatrists had a better coincidence (Kappa=0.86 -0.91). The auditory event related potential was detected with MYTO serial cerebra induced potential meter, while lying in a bed placed in a sound-attenuated room. Auditory stimuli were delivered binaurally through headphones. The subject was required to distinguish between the tones by noting the occurrence of the target and not to respond to the standard. All patients underwent a routine experimental test at first, and then a normal test was performed to obtain a better coincidence. Mini-mental state examination (MMSE) was conducted for the 38 patients by specialized training neurologist to assess the cognitive impairment, in which the total score ranged from 0 to 30, with lower score indicating greater impairment. The criteria of intellectual deterioration was defined on the basis of educational level:MMSE score of 17 for illiterate, 20 for primary school and 24 for middle school and above.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The score of MMSE, latent period of P300 wave and amplitude of P300 wave were mainly observed.RESULTS: All the 38 cases were involved in the final statistical analyhave depressive symptoms (47%, depression group) and 20 had no depresindexes and score of MMSE between the SCI patients with and without depression: As compared with the SCI patients without depression, the P300 latent period was obviously prolonged, the P300 amplitude and MMSE score were markedly decreased in the SCI patients with depression [(383.3±31.1), (347.2±37.3) ms; (5.6±0.7), (9.9±1.6) μV; (15.2±1.1),and P300 indexes: In the SCI patients with depression, the P300 latent period had significant negative correlation with the MMSE score (r=-0.549, P ＜ 0.05), the P300 amplitude had significant positive correlation with the MMSE score (r =0.525, P ＜ 0.05). However, there was no correlation between the latent period and amplitude of P300 and the MMSE score in the SCI patients without depression (r=-0.349 to 0.065, P ＞ 0.05).CONCLUSION: Depression and cognitive impairments may have the same pathophysiological basis in SCI patients. P300 can be used as a referential and objective method to analyze the cognitive function in SCI patients with depression.
