Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of peptidylarginine deaminase-4 (PADI-4)detected in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods The levels of PADI-4,anti-CCP antibodies,AKA and APF were detected by ELISA in serum samples from 58 patients with RA,40 other rheumatic disease and 30 healthy individuals.The indicators were evaluate by application of ROC curve analysis,analysis of variance and correlation.Results PADI-4 serum level(2.653±2.719 U/L) of patients with RA was significantly higher than other rheumatic diseases group (0.872 ± 0.292 U/L)and the healthy group (0.793±0.243 U/L),the difference was statistically significant (t=22.732,35.371,P<0.01).Receiver operator curve analysis (ROC)showed an opitium cut off level for PADI-4 at 1.284 U/L,the sensitivity of PADI-4 was 62.1%.The specificity was 91.4% in RA.There was no significant difference between the positive rate of PADI-4 (62.1%)and APF (50%),AKA (56.9%)(χ2=0.322,P=0.570;χ2=1.715,P=0.190),and there was asignificant difference between PADI-4 and anti CCP antibody (χ2=4.161,P=0.041);a positive correlation between PADI-4 and APF,AKA (r=0.652,0.666, P<0.01),PADI-4 and between anti CCP antibody showed no correlation (r=0.122,P=0.357).Conclusion PADI-4 was significantly increased in serum of RA patients in part,PADI-4 has good sensitivity and specificity of RA,a new diagnostic markers might become independent of antibody against CCP in RA.

Objective To study NF-κB ODN decoy-treated DC on type Ⅱ collagen- induced arthritis(CIA) serum IFN-γ,IL-10 and anti B Ⅱ C antibody and its mechanism.Methods Type Ⅱ collagen induced arthritic rats was established.NF-κB decoy-treated DC loaded with B Ⅱ C from rat spleen were injected to CIA rats via the tail vein at 5 days after the initial immunization.The rats were divided into control group,CIA model group and B Ⅱ C-decoy-DC experimental groups.Forty-two days after the initial immunization,the arthritis scores were determined,the ankle pathology examination were performed and the levels of the serum IFN-γ,IL-10,anti-Ⅱ collagen antibody were determined using ELISA.Results The levels of IFN-γ and anti-B Ⅱ C antibody in serum of CIA model group were increased significantly and IL-10 was decreased significantly (P<0.05,vs control group).After received with NF-κB ODN decoy inducing DC loaded with B Ⅱ C,the levels of IFN-γ and anti-B Ⅱ C antibody in serum of B Ⅱ C-decoy-DC experimental groups were decreased significantly and IL-10 was increased significantly (P<0.05,vs CIA model group).Conclusion NF-κB decoy-treated DC loaded with B Ⅱ C had significantly inhibited IFN-γ and anti-B Ⅱ C antibody production and promoted increased levels of IL-10,and had a good curative effect on the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.

Objective:To explore the application value of combined detection of troponin I (cTnI) and creatine kinase isoenzyme mass (CKMBmass), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and fibrinogen degradation products (FDP) in the diagnosis and treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).Methods:A total of 102 AMI patients in Wanbei Coal Power Group General Hospital from July 2019 to June 2020 were selected as the AMI group. In addition, 60 patients diagnosed with chest pain (CP) and chest distress (CD) during the same period were selected as the CPCD group, and 60 healthy patients were selected as the healthy control group. The levels of cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6 and FDP in the peripheral blood of the three groups were compared, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6, and FDP. The AMI group was given thrombolytic therapy. The clinical data of patients with different curative effects, the trend of changes in peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6 and FDP levels before and after treatment were compared, and the relationship between the above indicators and clinical indicators and curative effects were analyzed.Results:The levels of peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6 and FDP in the AMI group were higher than those in the CPCD group and the healthy control group, and the levels of peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6 and FDP in CPCD group were higher than those in the healthy control group ( P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) values of cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6 and FDP in the combined diagnosis of CPCD and AMI were 0.898 and 0.926, respectively, which were higher than those of single diagnosis. The time from onset to thrombolysis, infarct location, diabetes, diastolic blood pressure (DBP), systolic blood pressure (SBP), left ventricular end systolic volume (LVESV), left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) on admission of effective patients and ineffective patients were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The levels of peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6, and FDP of effective patients were lower than those of ineffective patients when they were admitted to the hospital and 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h after treatment ( P<0.05). The peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6, and FDP on admission were positively correlated with DBP, SBP, LVESV, LVESD, LVEDD, LVEDV, and was negatively correlated with LVEF ( P<0.05). Multiple linear stepwise regression analysis showed that after the onset to thrombolysis time, infarct location, smoking, diabetes, SBP, DBP, LVESV, LVESD, LVEDD, LVEDV, LVEF and other factors at admission were controlled, the levels of peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6, FDP were still significantly related to the efficacy ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The peripheral blood cTnI, CKMBmass, IL-6, and FDP are all abnormally expressed in AMI patients. Combined detection has clinical significance for the diagnosis and treatment of AMI.
