Objective Previous studies have shown that vitamin D deficiency is closely related to cardiac remodeling. How?ever, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Moreover, oxidative stress plays an important role on the pathologies of cardiac remodeling. The aim of this study was to explore the influence of VD deficiency on cardiac oxidative stress and the potential sig?nal pathway. Methods The male C57 mice ( 3 weeks old) were randomly divided into three groups: vitamin D deficiency ( VDD ) group ( vitamin D deficiency feed for 10 weeks) , vitamin D deficiency ( VDA) group ( vitamin D sufficiency feed for 10 weeks) and VDD+calcitriol ( CAL) group ( vitamin D deficiency feed for 10 weeks and then vitamin D sufficiency feed and calcitriol treatment for 10 weeks) . Results There were significant differences between the VDD group and the VDA group in the left ventricular end?diastolic diameter and left ventricular mass index (3.82±0.125 mm vs 3.748±0.092 mm, P<0.05) (119.30±8.54 vs 97.60±3.65, P<0.05). The number of myocardial cells stained with 8?OHDG was higher in the VDD group compared with the VDA group ( 65. 4 ± 2. 3 vs 21. 8 ± 1. 6, P<0.05) whereas was lower after calcitriol supplement. Furthermore, the expression of thioredoxin interacting protein (TXNIP) was sig?nificantly up?regulated and the ratio of p?ASK?1/ASK?1, cytochrome C release, and caspase3 activation were increased in the VDD group . Conclusion VDD can lead to cardiac oxidative injury and the up?regulation of TXNIP and the activation of ASK?1 related apoptotic signal cascade may be involved in this procedure.

Objective To observe the effect of suramin combinated with PG-Rg3 on xenograft growth of lung adeno-carcinoma in mice, and the related mechanism thereof. Methods Forty C57BL/6J mice bearing Lewis cells were random-ized into five groups:control group, cisplatin (DDP) group, suramin group, PG-Rg3 group and combination group. Appropri-ate interventions were given in five groups of mice. Mice were sacrificed at day 24 after tumor inoculation. The subcutaneous tumors were stripped for histological examination. The tumor inhibitory rate was measured. The expressions of erythropoietin-producing hepatoma amplified sequences (Eph) B4 protein, Bcl-2 and tumors microvessel density (MVD) were determined by immunohistochemistry method with image analyze system. The apoptosis of tumor cells was measured by biotinyated dUTP nick and labeling (TUNEL) method. Results There were significantly lower values in subcutaneous tumor volume and weight in drug-treated groups than those in control group (P<0.05). The inhibitory rates were 39.20%, 49.11%, 54.86%and 62.49%in cisplatin group, suramin group, PG-Rg3 group and combined group (P<0.05). The values of EphB4, MVD and Bcl-2 grey values were significantly decreased, the apoptotic index was significantly increased, in suramin group, PG-Rg3 group and combined group than those of control group and DDP group (P<0.05). The values of EphB4, MVD and Bcl-2 grey values were significantly increased, the apoptotic index was significantly decreased, in suramin group and PG-Rg 3 group than those of combined group (P<0.05). Conclusion Suramin combinated with PG-Rg3 can produce a synergetic inhibitory activity against tumor growth of lung adenocarcinoma, which may be associated with the effect of suppressing the expression of EphB4 and angiogenesis, and the promotion of tumor cell apoptosis.

Objective To explore the association between moxibustion sensation and therapeutic efficacy during moxibustion treatment. Methods By applying Taiyi moxa stick to Shiqizhui (EX-B 8) to treat primary dysmenorrhea, the association between the change of Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score and the topical moxibustion sensation and transmission types during the 30 min moxibustion treatment was observed. Besides, the occurrence time of transmission, and the transmission distance, width, depth, and direction were recorded. Results Superficial moxibustion sensation occurred in forty patients, of whom, the VAS score changed by (38.50±14.38) mm; heat-penetrating moxibustion sensation occurred in 18 patients, and the VAS score changed by (38.89±12.43) mm; heat-expanding sensation occurred in 6 patients, and the VAS score changed by (45.00±14.10) mm; distant transmission happened in 13 patients, and the VAS score changed by (41.54±13.90) mm. Patients with 4 types of moxibustion sensation had the highest VAS scores both before and after treatment, followed by 3 types, 2 types, and 1 type moxibustion sensation. In comparing the changes of VAS score between 10 min and 20 min treatment and between 20 min and 30 min treatment, the patients with 4 types of moxibustion sensation had the most significant change. Conclusions Different moxibustion sensations occur at different frequencies, and the occurrence of moxibustion sensation is related to the severity of disease condition. The number of moxibustion sensation type can affect the remission process of disease, but can merely influence the treatment result. The single moxibustion sensation (superficial heat only) works faster, usually taking 0~10 min; while the other forms of moxibustion sensation (heat penetrating, heat-expanding, and distant transmission) works slower, usually taking over 20 min.

Objective To construct an intelligent analysis system based on visual attention for diabetic retinopathy ( DR) assistant diagnosis and to realize the automatic screening and grading of fundus images of DR. Methods Total of 35126 DR fundus images were downloaded from the Diabetic Retinopathy Detection competition in the Data Modeling and Data Analysis Competition Platform (Kaggle),and 1200 fundus images were downloaded from the Messidor website. Firstly,according to the characteristics of DR fundus images,a series of preprocessing was carried out for retina images. Then,on the basis of VGG16 network,visual attention SENet module was introduced to improve the saliency of lesion features,and a deep convolution neural network SEVGG with complex network structure was generated. The network basically inherited some structural parameters of VGG16,and the parameters of SENet module were adjusted according to the basic network and training data set. Finally, the SEVGG network model was used to screen the DR fundus image,and the fundus image was divided into different levels according to the degree of lesions of DR in different periods. Configure the training platform and environment and perform algorithm performance verification experiments. Results The method proposed in this study was tested on different open standard datasets,and finally achieved high accuracy in image-based classification. The accuracy of 5 classification in Kaggle dataset was 83%,the sensitivity of lesion detection was 99. 86% and the specificity was 99. 63%. The accuracy rate of the 4 classification in the Messidor data set was up to 88%,the sensitivity of the lesion detection was 98. 17%,and the specificity was 96. 39%. The introduction of visual attention was more significant for the focus of the lesion,which helped the accurate detection of DR. Conclusions This method effectively avoids some shortcomings of traditional artificial feature extraction and fundus image classification,and is more accurate for lesion recognition. It is not only superior to the previous method,but also shows better robustness and generalization.

Objective: To compare the therapeutic effects of two different moxibustion methods both with tai-yi moxa stick in treating primary dysmenorrhea. <br> Methods: Forty-three patients were randomized into two groups by the random number table according to their treatment orders. The causalgic group was intervened by causalgic stimulation with tai-yi moxa stick while the tepid group was treated by mild thermal stimulation with tai-yi moxa stick. Shiqizhui (EX-B 8) was selected for both groups. Visual analogue scale (VAS) was used for observation before and during the treatment by every 10 min to compare the clinical efficacies between the two groups. <br> Results: Before treatment, there was no statistically significant difference in pain intensity between the two groups (P>0.05). After treatment, both groups achieved significant improvements in pain intensity (P<0.05), but the inter-group difference in pain intensity was still statistically insignificant (P>0.05), but the difference was enlarged comparing with that before treatment. The pain relief during the first 10 min of treatment was slower in the causalgic group than that in the tepid group. However, during the later 20 min, the pain relief in the calsalgia group gradually outpaced that in the tepid group. <br> Conclusion: The two moxibustion methods with tai-yi moxa stick both have a good instant analgesic effect in treating primary dysmenorrhea. For patients with primary dysmenorrhea, if 30 min is regarded as the treatment time, mild stimulation was suggested to be used for the first 10 min, and causalgic stimulation for the later 20 min to achieve a better curative effect.
