Objective Calreticulin (CRT)is a multifunctional protein of endoplasmic reticulum implicated in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis(RA). The present study was undertaken to determine whether CRT was involved in an?giogenesis events in RA. Methods Serum CRT levels were measured by enzyme-linked immnuosorbent assay(ELISA)in 106 patients with established RA, 75 osteoarthritis(OA)and 80 healthy controls(HC). CRT levels in synovial fluid were al?so measured in 25 RA and 22 OA patients. The expression of CRT in synovial tissue was examined by immunohistology. In order to investigate the role of CRT on angiogenesis, human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs)were isolated and cultured for in vitro experiments. The proliferation, migration and tube formation of HUVECs following CRT stimulation were examined in vitro by MTT assay, scratch wound healing assay and tube formation assay. Results Our results showed a sig?nificantly higher concentration of CRT in serum [(6.4±3.1) μg/L] of RA patients compared to that of OA [(3.7±0.9) μg/L, P<0.01] and HC [(3.4±1.0) μg/L, P<0.01];and significantly higher CRT in synovial fluid [(6.9±3.4) μg/L] of RA vs OA [(3.9± 0.7) μg/L, P<0.01]. Increased CRT expression predominantly localized to vascular endothelial cells, inflammatory cells and perivascular areas in both the lining and sublining layers of RA synovial tissue. Furthermore, CRT significantly promoted the proliferation, migration and tube formation of HUVECs, as showed by MTT assay, scratch wound healing assay and tube for?mation assay. Conclusion These findings suggested that CRT may be involved in synovitis and pannus formation events via promoting angiogenesis in RA.

This paper presents a removal method of electrogastrogram (EGG) baseline wander based on wavelet transformation. The basic idea of this method is using the low-frequency signal which is obtained through multi-scale decomposition of EGG signals to approximate the baseline wander of EGG, so the component of baseline wander is filtered out from the sampling EGG signals. The method was applied successfully to process the experimental data of dog EGG in our laboratory. The experimental data and analysis of results showed that this method could filter out the baseline wander of EGG, and this method would not affect the gastric spike and slow wave bandwidth signals, which could be shown from the characteristics of bandwidth filter of wavelet transformation.

Objective:To compare the depth of cure, surface hardness and microleakage applied to primary teeth of three types of bulk-fill resins, so as to provide reference for clinical application.Methods:Composite resin Filtek TM Z350 XT (group A) and giomer Beautifil Ⅱ (group B) were used as controls, high-viscosity bulk-fill resin Filtek TM Bulk Fill (group C), sonic-activated bulk-fill resin SonicFill 2 (group D) and flowable bulk-fill resin SDR ? flow+(group E) were studied. The microstructure of each group was observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Specimens of each group were prepared (6 pieces per group), and the Vickers microhardness of the surface layer and different depths of each group were measured, and then the depths of cure were calculated. Twenty-five primary molars dentin were filled by resins of each group (5 teeth per group), sliced, then aged, slices of each group were developed by silver ion staining. SEM was used to observed the distribution of silver ions. Microleakage of each group were analyzed by Jonckheere-Terpstra rank sum test. Results:SEM showed that the filler particles in groups A and C were spherical and evenly distributed. The shape of the fillers in groups B, D and E were polygonal and unevenly distributed. The surface hardness of groups A, B, C, D and E were (84.97±6.30), (65.04±5.95), (57.80±1.18), (60.77±2.34), (33.32±1.83) MPa respectively. Group A had the highest hardness, while group E was the lowest, and the differences between the two groups and other groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences among groups B, C, and D ( P>0.05). The curing depths of groups A, B, C, D and E were 2.6, 3.4, 5.8, 3.8 and 7.8 mm respectively. The largest microleakage was found in group E [2% (1/50) for grade 0, 22% (11/50) for grade 1, 30% (15/50) for grade 2, 24% (12/50) for grade 3, and 22% (11/50) for grade 4], which was statistically different from other groups ( P<0.05). No statistically significant differences were found among other 3 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Both high-viscosity and sonic-activated bulk-fill resins have the greater depth of cure, the same hardness and microleakage as giomer, which might be an option for restoration in primary teeth.

To analyze the prevalence of motor cognitive risk syndrome (MCRS) and the decline of motor and cognitive function in elderly patients with small vessel disease (CSVD). Methods From June 2018 to August 2020,a total of 130 CSVD patients aged 60~80 years admitted in the seventh medical center of PLA General Hospital were included (46 of them were diagnosed with MCRs syndrome). A series of cognitive function and motor tests were examined,including mini mental state examination (MMSE),verbal fluency test (VFT),clock drawing test (CDT),trailmaking test Part B (TMT B),single task walking (STW),dual task walking (DTW) and dualtask cost (DTC). Univariate analysis was performed for general and clinical data. Variables with P< 0.05 were further included in the multivariate Logistic regression analysis to assess the risk factors of MCRS. Univariate analysis also was performed for the cognitive and motor function of patients with different levels of SVD. Results The incidence rate of MCRs is about 35.38% (46/130)in the study. The cognitive function of MCRS negative group was significantly better than that of MCRS positive group,VFT[( 17.695±4.069) vs. (16.083±3.319)],and MMSE[28(28.29) vs. 27(26,27)]. Compared with MCRS negative group,the motor function differences in DTW speed[(90.500±21.138) vs. (65.417±17.301)]mm/s and DTC[ 12.425( 5.845,18.985) vs. 16.190(9.605,22.925)]%. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that VFT(OR= 1.876,95%CI 1.329~2.648,P< 0.01),DTC(OR=0.900,95%CI 0.823~0.985,P=0.022),DWT speed(OR= 0.869,95%CI 0.809~0.933 P< 0.01),and MMSE(OR=0.055,95%CI 0.017~0.175,P< 0.01) was an independent risk factor of MCRs. After adjusting for age,gender,education level and coexisting diseases,VFT(OR=1.961,95%CI 1.276~3.014,P=0.002),DTW speed(OR=0.861,95%CI 0.767~0.966,P< 0.01),MMSE(OR=0.032,95%CI 0.007~ 0.146,P< 0.01)and DTC(OR=0.861,95%CI 0.767~0.966,P< 0.01)were still significant. Conclusion The cognitive and motor performance in MCRS positive group is significantly worse than that in MCRS negative group in CSVD patients. VFT,MMSE and DTW are influencing factors of MCRS. DTW is more likely to cause gait disorder,which is mainly manifested by the decrease of walking speed.
