AIM：Damaging of Endothelial cells and adhesion of leukocytes and platelets were studied in rat mesentery microvessels after ischemia-reperfusion.METHODS：The model was made by losing blood and reperfusion from carotid artery in rat. Changes in mesentery microvessels were observed by high magnify microscope.RESULTS:Leukocyte and platelet adhesions were found in venules and co-capillaries 1-3 hours after ischemia-reperfusion. Endothelial cells were edema and vascular walls were thickening. Vacuoles formed in intracytoplasm of some vascular endothelium and some bigger endothelial vacuoles prominenced toward the luminal surface. Vacuoles had the shape of circle and the diameter was 10-30 μm. More vacuoles were found in arterioles, even there were several vacuoles in a arteriole. The biggest vacuole almost occupied 2/3 of vascular lumen.CONCLUSION：Edema and vacuole formation in vascular endothelium showed endothelial cells were damaged seriously after ischemia-reperfusion.

AIM:To study whether ischemic preconditioning(IPC) has a protective effect against ischemia/reperfusion(I/R) injury in brain, and the possible relationship between IPC and the regulating function of microcirculation. METHODS: The I/R models were established both in I/R and IPC groups of Sprague-Dawley rats. Additional procedure was performed of short term cerebral ischemic preconditioning in IPC group 24 hours before I/R. Skull windows were performed through which microcirculation features were measured before ischemia, during ischemia, and reperfusion. Finally, brains were cut into slices and stained with red tetrazoline(TTC). RESULTS: Most TTC stained brains in I/R group presented irregular palely red areas which were few in IPC group. Compared with I/R group, IPC group presented relatively increase in accumulated length of capillaries, mean cerebral microcirculatory perfusion, and microcirculatory velocity in ischemic and reperfusion phase. There was no-reflow phenomenon in I/R group in reperfusion phase, which was substituted by the course of increasing reperfusion in IPC group. CONCLUSIONS:IPC could relieve the reduction of tissue perfusion during ischemia and the no-reflow phenomenon during reperfusion by improving the regulating function of microcirculation, which relatively promote the opening of capillaries and accelerating of microvascular flow, therefore protect brain from I/R injury.

AIM: To investigate the effects of human urotensin Ⅱ (hUII) on in vivo mesenteric microcirculation in rats. METHODS: For recording of microcirculation images in the mesentery, the intestinal loop was mounted on the stage of an intravital microscope equipped with a TV camera. Video images of microcirculation were stored by a video cassette recorder. Temporal changes in internal diameter and microcirculatory velocity of microvesseles were measured by computer using the ImagePro software. The blood flow in intestinal wall was measured with PIMII laser Doppler perfusion Imager (Lisca Sweden). RESULTS: The internal diameters of arterioles and venules in control group were (21.4?2.3) ?m and (38.1?3.6) ?m,respectively. In UII group, the arterioles and venules contracted immediately after treated with UII and up to the peak at 1 min [(14.1?1.4) ?m and (22.2?5.2) ?m vs control,P0.05). The blood flow in intestinal wall increased 1 min after treated with UII and up to high peak at 5 min(6.4?1.1 perfusion unit vs control 4.2?0.9,P

Objective To study the role of pancreatic renin-angiotensin system (RAS) on insulin secretion, proliferation, apoptosis, oxidative stress, and fibrosis of β-cells. Methods The effect of angiotensin Ⅱ on βTC3 cells was studied and the role and mechanism of AT1 R were analyzed with RNAi technology. The expression of AT1 R was measured by Western Blotting. The change of intracellular calcium was detected by microfluorimetry with Furo3-1oaded cells. Peroxide-sensitive fluorescent probe DCFH-DA was used to analyze intracellular ROS by flow cytometry. Real-time PCR was performed to evaluate mRNA levels related to proliferation and fibrosis in βTC3 cells. Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry and Tunel method. Results Insulin secretion was significantly increased up to four fold and the level of intracellular calcium was sharply increased in response to high glucose in βTC3 cells. Angiotensin Ⅱ has no direct effect on insulin secretion in βTC3 cells and its role in secretion was associated with the role in proliferation. Oxidative stress in βTC3 cells caused by angiotensin Ⅱ may be partially mediated through AT1R, protein kinase C and NAD(P) H. With the decrease of AT1R expression by RNAi technology, apoptosis, and fibrosis of βTC3 cells induced by angiotensin Ⅱ might be ameliorated.Conclusions By means of AT1R, angiotensin Ⅱ plays an important role in insulin secretion, proliferation,apoptosis, oxidative stress and fibrosis in β-cells.

Betacellulin (BTC) is one of "islets regeneration factors" which received more and more attention these years. BTCe is the C-terminal 50-residue region of mature BTC protein and can bind with erbB-1?erbB-4 receptor. It has the same mitogenic activity on cells as the whole section. BTC and BTCe can improve the level of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) during islets culture in vitro though they had no effect on the acute insulin secretion. BTCe also effectively ameliorated the hyperglycemia of STZ-induced diabetic rats by a single plasmid injection into muscle of rats. It is supposed that BTCe promote the proliferation of PDX-1 positive cells or repair some signal transduction pathway. Perhaps the latter is more important.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate efficacy and optimal cut-off-point through cerebral vascular hemodynamic indexes (CVHI) examination to predict stroke.

METHODSA number of 20,333 people at 35 years old and over were checked by CVHI and accumulative score was calculated according to the value of detected indexes. Risk factors of stroke were investigated simultaneously. One hundred and sixty-eight patients with stroke occurred during 4-year following up. Typical syndromes and signs stroke were used as golden standard to evaluate screening efficacy of CVHI.

RESULTSScore of optimal cut-off-point of cerebral vascular hemodynamic indexes was under 75 in ROC curve analyses. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive and negative predictive values, positive and negative likelihood ratios as well as Youden's index for predicting stroke within 4 years after examination were found to be 87.50%, 67.70%, 67.86%, 2.21%, 99.85%, 2.71, 0.18 and 0.55 respectively. Sensitivity and positive predict values for predicting cerebral vascular thrombosis were superior to predicting cerebral hemorrhage. Positive predicting value in risk exposure population was higher than that of overall population. Coefficiency of variation of cerebral vascular hemodynamic examination was 4.03%. The agreement rate of examination between two physicians was 97.62% and Kappa value was 0.94.

CONCLUSIONThe score of optimal cut-off-point of cerebral vascular hemodynamic indexes examination was 75. Both Efficacy and reliability for predicting stroke seemed to be good, especially for predicting cerebral vascular thrombosis.

Objective To evaluate MRI and clinicopathological prognostic factors in predicting disease-free survival(DFS)of stage ⅢC1p cervical cancer patients.Methods A total of 102 stage ⅢC1p cervical cancer patients who underwent surgical treatment were selected.Based on survival status,stage ⅢC1p cases were divided into two subgroups:progression group and no progression group.The influencing factors of clinicopathological indexes and MRI features on prognosis in the two groups were analyzed.Results The results of the univariate analysis showed that squamous cell carcinoma antigen(SCC-Ag)level,T stage and location of lymph node metastasis(LNM)were correlated with the prognosis of stage ⅢC1p cervical cancer patients(P<0.05).Multivariate analysis results showed that late T stage,SCC-Ag>13 ng/mL,and LNM location≥3 were the high risk factors affecting the 3-year DFS decline in stage ⅢC1p cervical cancer patients.Conclusion SCC-Ag,T stage,and LNM location are independent risk factors for 3-year DFS in stage ⅢC1p cervical cancer patients.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of prenatal MRI in the detection of abnormal placental cord insertions (APCIs) comparing with prenatal ultrasound and pathological examination.Methods:A retrospective data collection was conducted on 440 patients who underwent both prenatal placental ultrasound and MRI at the Foshan Women and Children Hospital from December 2013 to December 2021. Among them, 37 cases were APCIs confirmed by surgery or pathology. The prenatal placental MRI findings were analyzed and compared with prenatal ultrasound diagnosis. The diagnostic efficacy of prenatal MRI and ultrasound in diagnosing APCIs was calculated.Results:Among the 37 cases of APCIs confirmed by surgery or pathology, 17 cases had marginal cord insertion (MCI), 13 cases had velamentous cord insertion (VCI), 5 cases had vasa previa (VP), and 2 cases had VCI combined with VP. The sensitivity and specificity of ultrasound diagnosis for APCIs were 59.5% (22/37) and 97.8% (394/403), respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of MRI diagnosis for APCIs were 86.5% (32/37) and 98.5% (397/403), respectively. Among the 37 cases of APCIs, prenatal MRI missed diagnosis of 2 cases of MCI, 2 cases of VCI, and misdiagnosed 1 case of VCI as an accessory placenta. MRI identified 10 cases of APCIs missed by ultrasound, including 5 cases of MCI, 2 cases of VP, 2 cases of VCI, and 1 case of combined VCI with VP. Additionally, ultrasound misdiagnosed 4 cases of APCIs, including 2 cases of VCI misdiagnosed as MCI and 2 cases of MCI misdiagnosed as VCI.Conclusions:For APCIs complicated with abnormalities of placental location or morphology, or placental accretion spectrum disease in late pregnancy, MRI has a higher diagnostic efficacy than ultrasound.

To compare the incidence of hypoglycemia between day-before bowel preparation and split-dose bowel preparation in colonoscopy patients. The effects of enterald ietary nutrients on the prevention of hypoglycemia and the preparation quality of the intestine during colonoscopy were compared. The patients who underwent colonoscopy were divided into the day-before bowel preparation group, the split-dose bowel preparation group, and the split-dose bowel preparation + enteral nutrient diet group. All patients had their finger blood sugar tested before colonoscopy. The peripheral blood glucose level was measured before operation. After the endoscopic examination, the intestinal cleanliness of the patients was evaluated through the Boston intestinal preparation scale by endoscopists. The incidence of day-before bowel preparation group and split-dose bowel preparation group and enteral nutrient intervention group were 14.38%(23/160), 17.50% (28/160)and 6.45% (4/62), respectively. The proportions of high quality intestinal cleaning were 31.25% (50/160), 35.00% (56/160) and 82.26% (51/62) in the three groups respectively. The incidence of hypoglycemia was higher in split-dose bowel preparation group than that in day-before bowel preparation group. Enteral nutrient intervention can effectively reduce the incidence of hypoglycemia and improve the quality of intestinal preparation, which is a recommended intestinal preparation method.
