Objective To provide rationales for preventing and treating dyslipidemia by understanding the current status of lipids and related metabolic factors.Methods A total of 2 590 permanent residents aged ≥ 18 years were selected by random cluster sampling from three urbanized communities of Sijiqing Street.And the rate of abnormal lipid metabolism was calculated for different ages and genders.Spearman's correlation analyses were conducted for the levels of total cholesterol (TC),total triglyceride (TG),low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C),high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C),body mass index (BMI),waist circumference (WC),systolic blood pressure (SBP),diastolic blood pressure (DBP),fasting plasma glucose (FPG),glycated hemoglobin (HbA 1 c) and uric acid (UA) levels.Both x2 test and logisic regression were employed to examine the correlations between dyslipidemia and overweight/obesity,hypertension,hyperglycemia and hyperuricemia.Results ① The total rate of abnormal lipid metabolism was 60.0％ (1 554/2 590) with a standardized rate of 57.2％.High TC rate was 42.9％ (1 111/2 590) with a standardized rate of 40.5％.And the edge incremental rate was 31.7％ (822/ 2 590),the standardized rate 30.5％,the incremental rate 11.2％ (289/2 590) and the standardized rate 10.0％.High TG rate was 33.0％ (855/2 590) with a standardized rate of 30.7％.And the edge incremental rate was 15.3％ (397/2 590),the standardized rate 14.3％,the incremental rate 17.7％ (458/2 590) and the standardized rate 16.4％.High LDL-C rate was 30.4％ (787/2 590) with a standardized rate of 28.4％.And the edge incremental rate was 22.9％ (594/2 590),the standardized rate 21.7％,the incremental rate 7.5％ (193/2 590) and the standardized rate 6.7％.Low HDL-C rate was 12.6％ (327/2 590) with a standardized rate of 12.8％.The rates of high TC,high TG,high LDL-C,low HDL-C and abnormal lipid metabolism among gender showed no statistically significant difference (P ＞ 0.05);② For both males & females,high TC rate,high TG rate,high LDL-C rate and total rate of abnormal lipid metabolism increased with age (P ＜ 0.01) while low HDL-C rate did not change with age (P ＞ 0.05);③Spearman's correlation analysis showed that the levels of TC,TG and LDL-C were positively correlated with BMI,WC,SBP,DBP,FBG,HbA1C and UA (all P ＜0.01) while the level of HDL-C had negative correlations with BMI,WC,SBP,DBP,FBG,HbA1 c,and UA (all P ＜ 0.05);④The total rate of abnormal lipid metabolism and various types of abnormal lipid metabolism increased with a rising level of BMI in the upward trend (trend test P ＜ 0.01),various types of abnormal lipid metabolism rate between different groups (elevated & non-elevated) of blood pressure,glucose and uric acid also were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05);⑤ Non-conditional logistic regression analysis showed that,after adjusting for age and gender,overweight or obesity and hypertension were risk factors of high TC and high LDL-C;overweight or obesity,hyperuricemia was a risk factor for low HDL-C;overweight or obesity,hypertension,hyperglycemia and hyperuricemia were risk factors for high TG and total abnormal blood lipid.Conclusions Urbanized community groups have a high rate of dyslipidemia.And abnormal lipid metabolism is affected by overweight or obesity,hypertension,hyperglycemia and hyperuricemia.The target population should be regularly monitored and comprehensively controlled.

Objective To compare the effects of celecoxib and amniotic membrane suspension (AMS) on corneal neovascularization (CNV) area and expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and matrix metalloprotein-ase-9 (MMP-9) in the growth of corneal neovascularization after thermal burn in rabbits,and provide a theoretical basis of celecoxib for the clinical treatment of corneal neovascularization.Methods Left corneas of 36 rabbits were burned by the home-made burning-device,and randomly divided to three groups:negative control group (n =12),AMS group (n =12) and celecoxib group (n =12),were respectively sub-conjunctival injected by 90 g · L-1 saline (0.1 mL),AMS (0.1 mL) and 8 mg · mL-1 celecoxib solution (0.1 mL).The histological morphology,growth condition and area of CNV were compared under slit lamp microscope at 4 days,7 days and 14 days after thermal-burned.At 7 days after thermal-burned,four appropriate corneas were randomly taken to detect the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 by immunohistochemistry,and the results were analyzed by computer image analysis system.Results At 4 days,7 days,14 days after thermal-burned,the areas of neovascularization were (11.32 ± 1.11)mm2,(38.49 ± 4.64) mm2,(43.30 ± 4.39) mm2 in negative control group,(9.69 ± 1.30) mm2,(31.15 ± 4.85)mm2,(37.19 ± 5.27) mm2 in AMS group,(8.47 ± 1.20)mm2,(30.31 ± 4.93) mm2,(36.69 ± 3.54) mm2 in celecoxib group,respectively.At different time points,neovascularization area in AMS group or celecoxib group was significantly lower than negative control group (all P ＜ 0.05).There was no difference between AMS and celecoxib group (all P ＞ 0.05).At 7 days after thermal-burned,the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 was not different between AMS group and celecoxib group (all P ＞ 0.05),and significantly lower than negative control group (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Celecoxib and amniotic membrane suspension can all effectively inhibit CNV after thermal-burned,which may be related to the down-regulated expression of MMP-2,MMP-9 in thermal-burned corneas.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) with different negative pressures on variation of oxygen partial pressure (PtO2 ) and wound healing in the rabbits.MethodsTwelve rabbit wound models were made and randomly (random number) divided into two groups, namely vacuum group ( n =6 )in which rabbits were treated with VSD by different negative pressures ( - 75 mmHg,- 125 mmHg,- 225 mmHg and - 350 mmHg) for 7 days, and routine treatment group ( n =6). At each interval of measurement, variation of PtO2 was measured by oxygen partial pressure admeasuring device, and area of VSD dressing and surface of wound were measured by vernier caliper, and growth of anaerobic bacteria was detected by bacterial culture, and morphological change and the course of wound healing were observed under by light microscope after HE tissue staining. Meanwhile anther two groups (n =6, in each) were set for comparing, including normal group, sham operation group. ResultsAverage PtO2 value of vacuum group was in the range of ( 1.87 +0. 19) kPa to ( 1.54 ±0. 21 ) kPa which was decreased gradually in 7 days under different negative pressures. Average PtO2 value of routine treatment group and normal group were ( 2. 82 ± 0. 37 ) kPa and ( 5.79 + 0. 50 ) kPa, respectively which weresignificant higher than that in vacuum group ( P ＜ 0. 01 ). PtO2 was fell to 80. 94％ of its original value after VSD for 5 seconds, and continued the downward trend with the increasing of negative pressure at the same interval of measuring. Area of VSD dressing significantly decreased to 65. 36％ of its original area after VDS for5 minutes (P＜0.01). Surface of wound was minimized to 62. 82％ of its original area after VSD for 7 days ( P ＜ 0. 01 ), and variations of those in - 350 mmHg group were significant greater than those in other groups ( P ＜ 0. 01 ). There was no evidence of anaerobic bacteria growth in vacuum group during this experiment. ConclusionsPtO2 could be down-regulated by VSD significantly without growth of anaerobic bacteria, and minimization of VSD dressing at - 350 mmHg was significantly helpful to reduce the area of wound for promoting the healing.

Objective To observe the month age distribution of peroxisome proliferators activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) expression in rat kedney. Methods Wistar rats aged 3 months,12 months and 24 months were made as models who represented young, middle-aged and old group respectively. Western blotting, immunohistochemical (IHC) and in-situ hybridization (ISH) were used to detect the expression and location of protein and mRNA of PPARγ in rat kidney. Results Western blotting results showed that the expression of PPARγ protein was higher in 3 months group than in 24 months group (0.94±0.05 vs. 0.78±0.02, P＜0.01) and 12 months group (0.87±0.04, P＞0.05), and it reduced in 24 months group than in 12 months group (P＞0.05). By IHC,the PPARγ protein was localized predominantly in the nuclear of tubular epithelia and collecting duct cells in each group. In old age group, PPARγ protein was also detected little in the mesangial and Bowman's capsule epithelial cells. Meanwhile, the distribution of PPARγ mRNA with ISH was consistent with above findings. Additional, semi-quantitative analysis of ISH results verified that the level of PPARγ mRNA decreased with ageing. Conclusions As a nuclear transcription factor,PPARγ participates in the regulation of rat kidney aging.

Objective To investigate whether two-dimension speckle tracking imaging(2D-STI) and ICAM-1-targeted myocardial contrast echocardiography could detect the acute cellular rejection of heart transplantation at the early stage.Methods The abdominal heterotopic heart transplantation model was successfully established using Wistar and SD rats.Forty-eight rats were divided into allografts (ALLO) group (n =24) and isografts(ISO) group (n =24).Echocardiography,2D-STI and ICAM-1 targeted myocardial contrast echocardiography were performed at 1,3,5 day after transplantation respectively.After ultrasound imaging,transplanted hearts were harvested for Hematoxylin-eosin staining and immunofluorescence histochemistry to evaluate acute cellular rejection and ICAM-1 expression.Results There were obvious difference between ALLO group and ISO group in echocardiographic parameters at 5 days after transplantation surgery (all P ＜0.05).Compared with those in ISO group,global circumferential strain and strain rate (GCS,GCSr),and circumferential strain of endo-myocardium (CSendo) decreased in ALLO group at day 3 post-transplantation (all P＜0.05).Compared with those in ISO group,all strain parameters in ALLO decreased significantly at postoperative day 5 (all P＜ 0.05).Myocardial contrast echocardiography using ICAM-1-targeted microbubbles showed that the video intensity in ALLO group was significant higher than that in ISO group at postoperative day 3 and day 5 (all P＜0.05).Conclusions 2D-STI and myocardial contrast echocardiography using ICAM-1-targeted microbubbles are sensitive and useful for detecting heart transplant acute rejection at the early stage.

Background and purpose:The third generation of aromatase inhibitors (AI) in postmenopausal hormone receptor-positive patients is the routine treatments in endocrine therapy. The 500 mg fulvestrant showed clini-cal beneifts in patients with previous AI treatment. This study aimed to access the effcacy and safety of 500 mg fulves-trant in estrogen receptor (ER) positive postmenopausal patients who had previous AI treatments with locally advanced and metastatic breast cancer.Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data from 188 post-AI ER positive and (or) progesterone receptor (PR)-positive locally advanced and metastatic breast cancer patients treated with 500 mg fulvestrant in Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from Jul. 2011 to Dec. 2015. Primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary end points were objective response rate (ORR), clinical beneift rate (CBR) and safety proifle.Results:After the median follow-up of 11.3 months, median PFS was 5.9 months (95%CI: 4.2-7.5), CBR was 40.0% and ORR was 3.4%. COX proportional hazards regression analysis indicated that PFS was correlated with the number of metastatic sites (HR=1.92, 95% CI: 1.2-2.9,P =0.002) and previous lines of chemotherapy (HR=1.52, 95%CI:1.0-2.1,P=0.022). Six patients stopped the treatment for intolerable adverse events.Conclusion:The treatment of 500 mg fulvestrant has a favorable effcacy and safety in treatment of post-AI ER positive postmenopausal patientswith metastatic breast cancer.

We have cloned full-length MDR1 cDNA from human normal liver tissue in previous study. Using this MDR1 cDNA as probe, we observed the MDR1 gene expression in human hepatocellular carcinoma treated with and without chemotherapy by Northern blot. The results showed that expression of MDR1 gene in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues was higher than that in their adjacent normal liver tissues; and enhanced MDR1 gene expression was also observed in hepatocellular carcinoma treated with chemotherapic agents. We also explored a method for quantitative analysis of MDR1 gene expression in hepatocellular carcinoma by polymerase chain reaction. This study suggests that overexpression of MDR1 gene may be responsible for the intrinsic and acquired drug resistance of human hepatocellular carcinoma, and PCR is a preferable method for quantitative analysis of MDR1 gene expression in hepatocellular carcinoma.
