Objective To evaluate the effects of a carbohydrate-electrolyte solution on serum glucose, pancreas islet function and inflammatory response in elderly patients after abdominal operation.Methods It was a prospective, randomized, double-blinded and controlled trial. Totally 40 elderly patients after abdominal operation who met the defined criteria were enrolled. The subjects in study group were administered with 1000 ml carbohydrate-electrolyte solution intravenously in consecutive three days since 1st or 2nd postoperative day. Control group was administered with 1000 ml of 10% glucose on the same method. The changes of serum glucose, insulin, C-peptide and inflammatory response cytokine (IL-6, TNF-α, CRP) were detected before and after injection.Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) was observed.Results All the 40 patients completed the study according to the study protocol. The incremental rate of serum glucose was significantly lower in study group than in control group on the 2nd and 3rd day after administration [(4.40±2.58) mmol/L vs. (14.97±3.44) mmol/L, t=2.984, P=0.008; (2.70± 1.55) mmol/L vs. (8.11± 2.60) mmol/L, t= 5.659, P= 0.000]. The changes of insulin and C-peptide of two group were similar before and after operation. The levels of IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly lower in study group than in control group on the 3rd day after administration[IL-6: (21.76±10.40) ng/Lvs. (50.17±35.24) ng/L, t=-2.447, P=0.034; TNF-α:(23.92±14.89) ng/L vs. (51.48±42.81) ng/L, t=-2.268, P=0.043]. In study group, 6 cases experienced SIRS and 4 cases had infective complications, but in control group the numbers were 8 and 6 respectively.Conclusions Appropriate application of carbohydrate-electrolyte solution intravenously has relatively mild effects on serum glucose and inflammatory response cytokine in elderly patients after abdominal operation, it decreases incidence of SIRS and maybe decrease infective complications.

Objective:To explore the molecular mechanism of cell death of the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with primary gouty arthritis, and provide new idea for the treatment of gout.Methods:Peripheral blood samples and clinical data were collected from 30 patients with acute gout (AG), 30 patients with intermittent gout (IG) and 40 healthy controls(HC). Real-time fluorescence quantitative detection of cell apoptosis related molecules, including the mRNA expression level of nucleotide binding oligomerization domain like domain like receptor protein 3(NLRP3), cysteine aspartic proteinase-1/4/5 (caspase-1/4/5), Gasdermin A/B/C/E. And NLRP3, precursor caspase-1 (pro-caspase-1), clipped caspase-1 (caspase-1 + p10), Gasdermin D(GSDMD), N segment GSDMD (GSDMD-N), precursor IL-1β (pro IL-1β), mature IL-1β (clevated IL-1β)were detected by western blot. The measurement data of normal or approximate normal distribution were analyzed by independent sample t test or one-way variance analysis (ANOVA), the measurement data of non-normal distribution were analyzed by Mann-Whitney U test or Kruskal-Wallis H test, and the counting data was compared by Chi-square test. Pearson's correlation analysis was used for the continuous variables with normal distribution, and Spearman's correlation analysis was used for the continuous variables with non-normal distribution. The logistic regression analysis was used to assess risk factors. Results:① There were no significant differences in MPR and BMI between AG and IG ( χ2=0.64, P=0.426; t=0.04, P=0.972), and there was significant difference in disease course [25.0 (9.8, 63.0), 54.0 (33.0, 102.0)mouth, Z=2.01, P=0.044]. Comparison of labora-tory parameters: there were statistical significant differences in ESR between AG and IG ( t=5.24, P<0.001), eGFR, GR, LY, RBC, HCT, UA, Creatinin, ALT and AST. ② In the three groups, the expression lev-els of caspase-1, GSDMC, GSDMD, GSDME, NLRP3 mRNA were statistically significantly different. In AG and IG groups, mRNA expression levels of caspase-1 (1.55±0.62), (1.58±0.62), GSDMD (4.7±1.4), (3.5±1.53), NLRP3 [2.63(2.03, 4.10), 2.39(1.57, 3.49)] were higher than those of the HC group [(1.24±0.59), 1.16±0.71, 1.16 (0.50, 2.34)] ( P=0.037, P=0.023, P<0.001, P<0.001, P<0.001, P<0.001). In IG group, mRNA expression levels of GS-DMD (3.53±1.53) were lower than those of AG group (4.68±1.43) ( P<0.001).The mRNA expression levels of GS-DMC and GSDME [0.57(0.33, 0.78), (0.32±0.15)]were lower than those of the HC group [0.80 (0.47, 1.86), (1.06 ± 0.36) ( P=0.004, P<0.001), and the mRNA expression levels of GSDME (0.62±0.29) in the IG group were lower ( P=0.004, P<0.001), However, in the IG group, GSDMC and GSDME [0.87 (0.51, 1.53), (0.62±0.29)] were higher than those in the AG group [0.57 (0.33, 0.78), (0.32±0.15)] ( P=0.003, P<0.001). ③ The expression levels of NLRP3, pro-caspase-1, caspase-1 + p10, GSDMD, GSDMD-N, pro-IL-1β, clevated IL-1β protein were statistically different among the three groups [( F=50.04, P<0.001; F=9.65, P=0.013; F=30.71, P=0.001; F=7.38, P=0.024; F=23.66, P=0.001; F=30.11, P=0.001; F=6.01, P=0.036]. The expression of NLRP3 protein in the AG group (1.14±0.12) was significantly higher than that in the IG and HC group (0.35±0.18), (0.17±0.03) (all P=0.001), the expression levels of Pro caspase-1, caspase-1+p10 protein in the AG (1.11±0.15), (0.93±0.38) and IG (0.98±0.14), (1.14±0.17) group were higher than those in the HC (0.42±0.28), (0.29±0.16) ( P=0.006, P=0.015). The expression levels of GSDMD protein in the AG group (1.04±0.16) were higher than those in the IG and HC group(0.53±0.26), (0.39±0.22) ( P=0.029, P=0.011). The expression level of GSDMD-N protein in the AG and IG group (0.97±0.06), (0.90±0.04) was higher than that in the HC (0.27±0.23) ( P=0.001, P=0.001). The expression level of pro-IL-1β protein in the AG group (1.01±0.06) was significantly higher than that in the IG and HC group (0.32±0.14), (0.64±0.11) ( P<0.001, P=0.006), but lower than that in the HC (0.64±0.11) ( P=0.011). The expression of clevated IL-1β protein was higher in the AG group (1.08±0.20) than in the HC group (0.33±0.24) ( P=0.014). ④ Negative correlation between NLRP3, GSDMD and LY ( r=-0.32, P=0.001; r=-0.24, P=0.017) and positive correlation between GSDMD and WBC, GR ( r=0.43, P<0.001; r=0.23, P=0.019) were found and Logistic regression analysis showed that the GSDMD and NLRP3 were risk factors for AG [ OR ( 95%CI)=11.29 (3.92, 32.48), P<0.001; OR( 95%CI)=2.21(1.00, 4.85), P=0.049]. GSDMD was risk factor for IG [ OR( 95%CI)=6.84(2.52, 18.53), P<0.001]; While GSDMD was the protective factor for IG [ OR( 95%CI)=0.61(0.41, 0.30), P=0.013]. Conclusion:The expression's of NLRP3, Caspase-1 and GSDMD are increased in PBMCs of AG patients, while the expression's of GSDMC and GSDME are decreased. NLRP3/Caspase-1/GSDMD may be associated with the onset of acute gouty arthritis.

Objective To explore the prognostic values of telomerase reverse transcriptase promoter (TERTp) mutation and 1p/19q co-deletion in newly-diagnosed O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter un-methylated/isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wild-type glioblastoma multiform (GBM). Methods A total of 82 patients pathologically newly-diagnosed MGMT promoter un-methylated/IDH wild-type GBM, admitted to our hospitals from March 2016 to November 2018, were included in this study. TERTp mutations (TERTp wild-type and TERTp mutation [C228 mutation and C250 mutation]) in GBM specimens were detected by PCR sequencing, 1p/19q co-deletion in GBM specimens was detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and clinical data, adverse reactions and prognoses of patients with different molecular typing were compared. Results There were 33 patients in the TERTp wild type group with mean age of 48 years, and 49 patients in the TERTp mutation group with mean age of 59 years; the difference of age was significant (P<0.05); there were no statistical differences in gender distribution, Karnofsky performance status (KPS) scores, tumor sites and surgical resection degrees between the two groups (P>0.05). There were 8 patients with 1p/19q co-deletion and 74 patients without 1p/19q co-deletion; no significant differences in above clinical parameters were noted between the two groups. There were no statistically significant differences in the incidences of bone marrow suppression, digestive tract response and fatigue, disease progression rate, or survival rate between patients from TERTp wild type group and TERTp mutation group, and between patients with 1p/19q co-deletion and patients without 1p/19q co-deletion (P>0.05). No significant differences in above clinical parameters, disease progression rate, and survival rate were noted between patients with C228 mutation and C250 mutation (P>0.05). Conclusion TERTp typing and 1p/19q co-deletion status do not have prognostic value in newly-diagnosed MGMT un-methylated/IDH wild-type GBM patients; patients with TERTp mutations have older age than wild-type patients; patients with C250 mutation trend to have higher survival rate than those with C228 mutation.
