Objective To investigate the effects of different concentrations of lauromacrogol intravenous injection on the thrombosis and vascular walls through the animal experiment.Methods Thirty ear marginal veins of rabbits whose weight ranged from 2.5 kg to 3.0 kg and whose sex was not limited were divided randomly into six groups:1.0 ％ lauromacrogol group,0.9 ％ lauromacrogol group,0.8 ％ lauromacrogol group,0.7 ％ lauromacrogol group,0.6 ％ lauromacrogol group and normal saline group.The local veins and their side tissue were cut off for samples for HE staining and VEGF expression detected by immunohistochemistry at the first day,third day,fifth day and seventh day after injection.Results Visual observation and HE staining showed that 1.0 ％ lauromacrogol group,0.9 ％ lauromacrogol group,0.8 ％ lauromacrogol group and 0.7 ％ lauromacrogol group had thrombosis in veins after injection,0.6 ％ lauromacrogol group and normal saline group did not have thrombosis in veins after injection.The score of VEGF expression showed that 1.0 ％ lauromacrogol group,0.9 ％ lauromacrogol group,0.8 ％ lauromacrogol group and 0.7 ％ lauromacrogol group did not have statistically significant differences between groups and different time point (P＞ 0.05) and there were statistically significant differences between 0.6 ％ lauromacrogol group and other four groups (P＜0.05) in each time point.Conclusions From these animal experiments lauromacrogol shows the effect of vascular injury and thrombosis,eventually leading to the injected vein disappeared in 0.7 ％ lauromacrogol group.

Objective To detect the expression of T cell immunoglobulin mucin 3 (Tim-3) and its relationship with Th17/Treg cytokine isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and broncho-alveolar lavage fluids (BALF) cells in the asthmatic murine model and to investigate the role of Tim-3 in the occurrence and development of the asthmatic inflammation. Methods The asthmatic murine model was established by the method of ovalbumin (OVA) injection and inhalation. The mice were randomly divided into 2 groups: the normal control and the asthma group. PBMCs and BALF cells in each group were collected. Expression of Tim-3 mRNA was detected by the real-time PCR assay. Levels of CD4+IL-17+ and CD4+CD25+FoxP3+, reflecting expressions of Th17 and Treg respectively , were detected by flow cytometry. The correlationbetween Tim-3 and Th17/Treg level was analyzed. Results Contrast with the normal control group, the expression of Tim-3 mRNA in PBMCs and BALF cells in the asthma group increased significantly (P < 0.01). OVA sensitization and challenges resulted in the increased CD4+IL-17 production and the decreased CD4+CD25+Foxp3+in PBMCs and BALF cells compared with those in the normal control group (both P < 0.05). The ratio of Th17/Treg significantly increased in asthma group (P < 0.05). Tim-3 mRNA expression in PBMCs and BALF cells was positively correlated with CD4+IL-17+ level and Th17/Treg ratio , respectively , and was negatively correlated with CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ level. Conclusions Tim-3 mRNA level in PBMCs and BALF cells in the asthma group was increased , indicating that Tim-3 might take part in the occurrence and development of asthmatic inflammation and has a very close relationship with the Th17/Treg imbalance.

Objective:To study the total serum IgE level of infant's asthmatic diseases in acute attacks and its effect on the development of wheezing.Method:The serum IgE levels of 964 children(younger than two years old)diag- nosed as asthmatic bronchitis or bronehiolitis were measured by immune dispersion nephelometer.Result:78.9% childrens had high E levels(females took up 25.9% and males,74.1%),asthmatic bronchitis accounted for 92.3% of the total and bronehiolitis,60.3%.Of the 328 infants involved in our research,76 were diagnosed as asthma at last,which accoun- ted for 23.2%.Conclusion:78.9% infants had a high level of IgE in an acute phase.There was a prominent relativity be- tween IgE and the development of asthma.The increased IgE level of asthmatic bronchitis was obviously higher than that of the bronchiolitis.There appeared to be a connection between the IgE level and the occurrence of asthmatic bronchitis to- gether with the development of asthma.

Objective To establish and evaluate the CaV1?1?R528H gene knock?in mouse model of thyrotoxic hy?pokalemic periodic paralysis. Methods Thirty?six 8?week?old male CaV1?1?R528H gene knock?in mice and thirty?six 8?week?old wild?type male C57BL/6J mice were used in this study. Using three?factor two?level 2 × 2 × 2 factorial design ( the three factors including mutation, thyroxine and insulin, and two levels were with or without) , the mice were divided into 8 groups. The thyroxine groups were intraperitoneally injected with levothyroxine in a dose of 350 μg/kg once per day for 12 consecutive days to produce thyrotoxicosis. The insulin groups were intraperitoneally injected with short?acting insulin in a dose of 0?8 U/kg after the last administration of levothyroxine, and the potassium levels of different groups were meas?ured and recorded before (0 min) and after insulin injection (30 min, 60 min). Results (1) Compared with the control group, the following phenomena including irritability, dull coat, increased diet and water intake, and slow body weight gain, were observed in the thyrotoxic mice. Thyroid function tests showed that the levels of T3 and T4 in the thyrotoxic mice were significantly higher than those in the corresponding control mice (P<0?05), and the TSH level was significantly low?er than that of the corresponding control mice (P<0?05 ). (2) After administration of insulin or thyroxine alone, the po?tassium levels in the mutant and wild?type mice were not significantly different. However, after combined administration of thyroxine and insulin, the potassium levels in the mutant group were significantly lower than those in the wild?type mice at 30 min and 60 min ( P<0?05 for both). (3) The main effects and interactions:Mutation factor or thyroxine factor alone did not influence on the potassium level, only insulin showed hypokalemic effect (P<0?05). There were interactions be?tween thyroxine and mutation, and between insulin and mutation (P<0?05), but no interaction between thyroxine and in?sulin. Conclusions (1) A thyrotoxicosis state in mice is successfully developed in this study. (2) An CaV1?1?R528H gene knock?in mouse model of thyrotoxic hypokalemic periodic paralysis is successfully established.

Objective To investigate the changes and clinical significance of the levels of matrix metallopro-teinase -9(MMP -9)in the serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF)in children with asthma whose had differ-ent levels of 25 -hydroxyl -vitamin D3 [25 (OH)D3 ]in the serum.Methods Fifty children with asthma between January 201 3 and January 201 5 were enrolled as the asthma group,based on the disease severity,and the patients were divided into the moderate to severe group (37 cases)and the mild group (1 3 cases),while 20 children with abnormal airway or tracheal foreign body were as a control group.The levels of 25 (OH)D3 and MMP -9 in the serum,levels of MMP -9 in BALF were measured and compared by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)me-thod.Re-sults The level of serum 25 (OH)D3 in the asthma group[(1 9.5 ±6.4)μg/L]was lower than that in the control group[(39.3 ±7.1 )μg/L ],and there was a statistical difference between 2 groups(P <0.05).The level of serum 25(OH)D3 in moderate to severe group[(1 6.6 ±4.1 )μg/L]was lower than that in the mild group[(27.9 ±4.5)μg/L],there were statistically significant difference between 2 groups(P <0.05).There was no significant difference in the total number of cells and the percentage of macrophages among different serum 25(OH)D3 levels of children with asthma and the control group(P >0.05).The percentages of neutrophils,eosinophils and epithelial cells in BALF were significantly higher in different serum 25(OH)D3 levels of children with asthma than those of the control group(all P <0.05).There were significant difference levels of MMP -9 in the serum and BALF among different serum 25(OH)D3 levels of children with asthma and the control group(all P <0.05).In children with asthma,the levels of 25(OH)D3 in serum were significantly negatively correlated with the percentages of neutrophils,eosinophils and epithelial cells in BALF (r =-0.683,-0.795,-0.670,all P <0.05 ),exiting a significantly negatively correlation also seen between the serum levels of 25(OH)D3 and MMP -9 (r =-0.796,P <0.05).Conclusions Children with asthma often have low levels of serum 25 -(OH)D3 ,25(OH)D3 and MMP -9 may be involved in airway inflammation and airway remo-deling in children with asthma,and they may involve in the occurrence and development of asthma.

Objective:To investigate the prognosis and related factors of stroke patients with hypertension after a one-year follow-up, in order to provide evidence for early clinical identification and intervention of high-risk groups.Methods:A total of 719 stroke patients with hypertension who were hospitalized in our hospital from April 2017 to August 2018 were enrolled as the research subjects.General information, history of underlying diseases, family history, drug treatments and laboratory test results were collected.Patients were followed up for 1 year.Patients were divided into the death group and the survival group according to prognosis.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors for death in stroke patients with hypertension.Results:A total of 77 patients died during the follow-up period, and the mortality rate was 10.7%(77/719). Univariate analysis showed significant differences in marital status( χ2=35.455, P<0.001), education level( χ2=35.238, P<0.001), exercise habits( χ2=10.172, P=0.001), BMI( t=2.161, P=0.031), age( t=-5.976, P<0.001), history of heart disease( χ2=5.064, P=0.024), antiplatelet use( χ2=14.275, P=0.003), antihypertensive drug treatment( χ2=14.597, P<0.001), lipid-lowering drug treatment( χ2=11.311, P=0.001), and creatinine( t=-4.63, P<0.001)between the death group and the survival group.Logistic regression analysis showed that age( OR=1.042, 95% CI: 1.011-1.073), loss of a spouse( OR=3.674, 95% CI: 1.558-8.665), education level( OR=0.418, 95% CI: 0.225-0.779), use of aspirin( OR=0.376, 95% CI: 0.165-0.855), use of clopidogrel( OR=0.451, 95% CI: 0.219-0.928), antihypertensive drug treatment( OR=0.505, 95% CI: 0.282-0.901)and creatinine( OR=1.009, 95% CI: 1.004-1.014)were independent influencing factors for prognosis( P<0.05). Conclusions:The mortality rate is high in stroke patients with hypertension.Advanced age, loss of a spouse and high creatinine level are risk factors for prognosis, whereas high education level, antihypertensive drug treatment and antiplatelet use are protective factors for prognosis.

Objective:To assess the left ventricular(LV) structure and systolic function in amateur marathon runners using real-time three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography(3D-STE) and analyze its correlation with the running volume.Methods:A total of 84 amateur marathon runners were recruited between January 2019 and October 2021 in Hangzhou and were divided into short-term (ST) group(≤6 months) and more extended-term(MET) group(>6 months–2 years) based on their time of participating in the marathon. Thirty-nine healthy volunteers were enrolled from the Affiliated Hospital of Hangzhou Normal University during the same period as a control group. The running volume of ST and MET runners were recorded, LV end-diastolic volume(EDV), end-systolic volume(ESV), LV mass(LVM), LV ejection fraction(LVEF), LV global longitudinal strain(GLS), global circumferential strain(GCS), global radial strain(GRS), global area strain (GAS), twist, and torsion were measured by conventional echocardiography and 3D-STE. The differences of those parameters among the three groups were compared. The correlation between 3D-STE parameters and the running volume was further analyzed.Results:In ST amateur marathon runners, LV EDV was higher compared with controls( P<0.05). Compared with ST and control groups, LV EDV, ESV, and LVM of MET runners were increased(all P<0.05). In addition, compared with control group, GLS of MET runners was increased( P<0.05). The LVEF, GCS, GRS, GAS, twist, and torsion showed no statistically significant differences among the three groups(all P>0.05). In amateur marathon runners LV EDV, ESV, LVM had statistically significant positive correlations with an average weekly running volume and total running volume (all P<0.01). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the total running volume was an independent correlation factor in LV EDV of amateur marathon runners (β=0.618, P<0.01). Conclusions:Amateur marathon runners participating in a short term marathon mainly show an increase in LV EDV, the longitudinal systolic function of the LV can be enhanced in the early stage of the marathon.
