Symptoms score, serum gastrin (Gas) level and body surface electrogastrogram (EGG) were detected before and after treatment. [Results] In group A, symptoms such as abdominal distention, epigastric pain, anorexia, loose stool, lassitude, gastric discomfort, acid regurgitation, and belching were much relieved; serum Gas level and post-prandial EGG amplitude were increased ( P

Objective To elucidate the role of insulin receptor and its ?-subunit autophosphorylation in evoking insulin resistance in non-obese type 2 diabetes. Methods 14 patients with non-obese type 2 diabetes and 12 healthy subjects were enrolled in this study. Insulin receptor numbers and its insulin affinity in erythrocytes were measured using radio-labelled ligand binding assay described by Comi et al. Insulin receptor autophosphorylation in erythrocytes membrane was initiated by adding insulin and ?- 32 P ATP. Then the membrane proteins were resolved on 7 5% SDS-PAGE and subjected to autoradiography. Results The numbers of high and low affinity receptors in erythrocytes of type 2 diabetes were 21?13 and 955?427 per cell respectively, and they showed no significant difference as compared with control. The high affinity constant(K 1) and low affinity constant(K 2) of insulin receptors in erythrocytes of type 2 diabetes were (1 70?0 93)?10 -9 LM -1 and (1 44?0 86)?10 -7 LM -1 respectively, also displaying no significant difference in comparison with the control. Insulin-induced receptor ? subunit autophosphorylation was 8 02?5 6△A/mg protein in type 2 diabetes, which was lower than that (28 38?15 24)△A/mg protein) in control(P

The systematic approaches of metabonomics are similar to the essential attribution in concept of the wholism for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theories. The metabonomics had been progressively utilized to study the TCM theories, such as "ZHENG" (synelromes), or the systematic mechanism of Chinese materia medica (CMM) and its formulae by animal models, and toxicology in recent years. These studies almost focused on the responeses of endogenous metabonome to biological stimuli or genetic manipulation (pharmacodynamics and toxicology) by TCM theory of "ZHENG", while less involved the precess of formulae itself and its dynamic changes (pharmacokinetics) by TCM theory of "FANG". The "treatment by differentiating syndrome" and "Correspondence of FANG-ZHANG" is the quintessence of TCM theories. Consequently, in this idea, the application of PK-PD methods based on metabonomics and "FANG-ZHENG correspondence" to investigating the compatibility of the formulae in TCM theory is discussed in this paper.

Objective To report operative course and relative complications in a group of patients who underwent Excessive Pressure Regulation System (Ex-PRESS) glaucoma shunt implantation in the real world,and discuss the ralated factors and possible interventions in clinical practice.Methods Preferred Ex-PRESS glaucoma shunt implantation were performed on 11 eyes with deverse types of glaucoma.Operative course and relative complications were analyzed from recorded tapes and documents.The correlations between complications,types of glaucoma,and previous procedures were analyzed,the complications were appropriately managed.Results 11 patients with diverse types of glaucoma who underwent Ex-PRESS glaucoma shunt implantation were recruited for the study.Among them,2 patients had combined phacoemulcification surgery,1 patient had repeat shunt implantation.During the procedure,1 patient had dislocated shunt into anterior chamber;1 patient had shunt entirely inserted into anterior chamber with plunger.4 patients had hypotony and flat anterior chamber,2 of them had hyphema,2 experienced subchoroid detachment.1 patient had intraocular lens pupil clamping after combined cataract and glaucoma surgery;4 cases had flat filtering blebs and uncontrolled intraocular pressure during the follow-up period,2 of them had blocked drainage and proliferative anterior synechia around the head,which was found in the patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma who had previous operation history.The common long-term complication was external ostium occlusion (4/11).The complications of drainage are related to the type of glaucoma and the history of operation.Conclusions Other than the complications which present commonly in trabeculectomy procedure,there were some complications related to the Ex-PRESS glaucoma shunt.History of ocular surgery,surgical techniques and the type of disease were associated with the incidence of complications.

To explore the effects of platelet factor 4(PF4) on hematopoietic reconstitution and its mechanism in syngenic bone marrow transplantation (BMT). The syngenic BMT mice models were established. 20 and 26 h before irradiation, the mice were injected 20 micrograms/kg PF4 or PBS twice into abdominal cavity, then the donor bone marrow nuclear cells (BMNC) were transplanted. On the 7th day, spleen clone forming units (CFU-S) were counted. On the 7th, 14th and 21st day after BMT, the BMNC and megakaryoryocytes in bone marrow tissue were counted and the percentage of hematopoietic tissue and expression level of heparan sulfate in bone marrow tissue were assessed. In PF4-treated groups, the CFU-S counts on the 7th day were higher than those in BMT groups after BMT. The BMNC and megakaryoryocyte counts and the percentage of hematopoietic tissue and heparan sulfate expression level were higher than those in BMT group on the 7th, 14th and 21st day after BMT (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05). PF4 could accelerate hematopoietic reconstitution of syngenic bone marrow transplantation. The promotion of the heparan sulfate expression in bone marrow may be one of mechanisms of PF4.

Objective To explore the impact of nurse-led multidisciplinary collaborative nutrition inter-vention on the nutritional indicators in the patients with stroke.Methods A total of 100 patients with stroke admitted in this hospital from January to December 2020 were selected as the study subjects and divided into the observation group and control group by the propensity score matching,50 cases in each group.The control group was given the traditional nutrition intervention,and the observation group was given the nurse-led mul-tidisciplinary cooperative nutrition intervention.The blood,nutritional and biochemical indicators,physique monitoring indicators and nutritional risk indicators were compared between the two groups.Results The levels of total protein(TP),albumin(ALB),hemoglobin(Hb),prealbumin(PAB),body mass index(BMI),upper arm muscle circumference(AMC)and triceps skin fold thickness(TSF)on 21 d after admission in both groups were increased compared with those on 2,15 d after admission,and which on 15 d after admission were higher than those on 2 d after admission(P＜0.05),moreover the above indicators levels on 15,21 d after ad-mission in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statisti-cally significant(P＜0.05).Body mass index(BMI),upper arm circumference(AMC)and triceps skinfold thickness(TSF)in both groups on 21 d of admission were higher than those on 2,15 d of admission(P＜0.05).The nutritional risk screening 2002(NRS2002)score on 21 d after admission in the two groups were decreased compared with those on 2,15 d after admission,while which on 15 d after admission was decreased compared with that on 2 d after admission,moreover the NRS2002 score on 15,21 d after admission in the ob-servation group were lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Giving the nurse-led multidisciplinary cooperative nutrition intervention could im-prove the blood nutritional and biochemical indicators and physique monitoring indicators,and reduce the nu-tritional risk of the patients with stroke.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of pretargeting technique for immunoPET with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibody in EGFR positive/negative tumor bearing mice.Methods:Cetuximab- Trans-cyclooctene (TCO)was obtained by modifying Cetuximab with TCO- N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS). 2, 2′-((6-amino-1-(4, 7-bis-(carboxymethyl)-1, 4, 7-triazonan-1-yl)hexan-2-yl)azanediyl)-diacetic acid (L-NETA)was used as a chelating agent to prepare the radioligand 68Ga-L-NETA-tetrazine (Tz), then the labeling rate and in vitro stability of the product were determined. Human basal breast cancer cells MDA-MB-468 (EGFR+ ) and MDA-MB-231 (EGFR-) were cultured in vitro. In vitro experiments were performed to explore the specificity of the probe and the feasibility of pretargeting technique. Nude mice (Balb/c-nu) bearing xenografts of the above two cell lines were established. Cetuximab-TCO (50 μg) was injected into the tumor-bearing mice in advance, then 68Ga-L-NETA-Tz was injected at different time points (48, 36, 24 and 12 h), and pretargeting was realized through " click chemistry" . Small-animal PET imaging and biodistribution were performed to evaluate pharmacokinetic properties and specificity of the probe. The one-way analysis of variance was used to compare the data. Results:The 68Ga-L-NETA-Tz molecular probe was successfully prepared with the labeling yield >95%, and the radiochemical purity was >95% after 2 h. Cetuximab-TCO and 68Ga-L-NETA-Tz were added to MDA-MB-468 cells successively, and the cell uptake rate reached (0.69±0.04)% at 1 h, which demonstrated the feasibility of the pretargeting technique. PET imaging and biodistribution results showed that the best imaging results were obtained in 36 h pre-injection group, in which the tumor uptake was the highest ((0.77±0.05) percentage activity of injection dose per gram of tissue (%ID/g), 1 h) and the tumor/muscle ratio was optimal (4.67±0.46); the tumor uptake in the blocking group, the group without injecting Cetuximab-TCO, and the MDA-MB-231 group were significantly lower ((0.35±0.01), (0.39±0.05), (0.45±0.10) %ID/g; F=15.50, P=0.002). Conclusions:EGFR targeted immunoPET imaging is successfully performed in mouse models of breast cancer by injecting Cetuximab-TCO and 68Ga-L-NETA-Tz successively. It provides an effective method for immunoPET imaging of monoclonal antibodies.

【Objective】 To study the changes of platelet components(PC), apheresis platelets (AP) and pooled platelet concentrates (PPC) production of 19 provincial blood centers before and during the COVID-19 epidemic. 【Methods】 The data related to the collection of AP and the preparation of PPC from 2016 to 2021 of 19 provincial blood centers was collected. The production of PC, AP and PPC during the four years before the epidemic (i.e. 2016-2019) and during the COVID-19 epidemic (i.e. 2020 and 2021) were calculated respectively, and the change of production was analyzed. 【Results】 The total production of PC in 19 blood centers steadily increased from 2016 to 2019, with a decrease of 4.16% in 2020 and an increase of 15.60% in 2021, exceeding the output before the COVID-19 epidemic. In 2020, the production of PC of 42.11% (8/19) blood centers decreased compared with 2019, while 94.74% (18/19) in 2021 increased compared with 2020. The changes of AP output was basically consistent with the trend of PC. The total production of PPC in 2017 and 2018 both doubled compared to the previous year, while decreased by 67.98% in 2019, increased by 30.38% in 2020 and decreased by 27.08% in 2021. 【Conclusion】 The total production of PC kept increasing steadily between 2016 and 2019, but decreased in 2020 under the COVID-19 epidemic, with some blood centers being significantly affected. In 2021, with the strong support from government and various measures by blood centers, the total production of PC increased.

Objective:To summarize the patient profiles and therapeutic efficacies of ABO-incompatible living-related kidney transplantations at 19 domestic transplant centers and provide rationales for clinical application of ABOi-KT.Methods:Clinical cases of ABO-incompatible/compatible kidney transplantation (ABOi-KT/ABOc-KT) from December 2006 to December 2009 were collected. Then, statistical analyses were conducted from the aspects of tissue matching, perioperative managements, complications and survival rates of renal allograft or recipients.Results:Clinical data of 342 ABOi-KT and 779 ABOc-KT indicated that (1) no inter-group differences existed in age, body mass index (BMI), donor-recipient relationship or waiting time of pre-operative dialysis; (2) ABO blood type: blood type O recipients had the longest waiting list and transplantations from blood type A to blood type O accounted for the largest proportion; (3) HLA matching: no statistical significance existed in mismatch rate or positive rate of PRA I/II between two types of surgery; (4) CD20 should be properly used on the basis of different phrases; (5) hemorrhage was a common complication during an early postoperative period and microthrombosis appeared later; (6) no difference existed in postoperative incidence of complications or survival rate of renal allograft and recipients at 1/3/5/10 years between ABOi-KT and ABOc-KT. The acute rejection rate and serum creatinine levels of ABOi-KT recipients were comparable to those of ABOc-KT recipients within 1 year.Conclusions:ABOi-KT is both safe and effective so that it may be applied at all transplant centers as needed.
