Objective To explore the role of OAZ gene in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythe-matosus (SLE) by using RNA interfering technique. Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from SLE patients were collected. Each sample was equally divided into four groups for cell culture in 96 well plates. Specific siRNA for OAZ and GAPDH were concordantly added to the experimental group and the positive control group, while nonspecific siRNA was added to the negative control group and only culture medium was added to the Mock control group. Cells and supernatants were harvested after culturing for 72 hours, then RNA was extracted and reverse transcripted to cDNA. OAZ, Id1, Id2, Id3, Id4 mRNA expression levels were analyzed by using real-time PCR. Levels of IFN-γ, IL-4, IL-10, IL-12, IL-21, CCL2, ANA in the supernatant were tested by ELISA. Relationships between the expression levels of OAZ mRNA with levels of cytokines and ANA were analyzed. Results OAZ, Id1, Id2, Id3 gene mRNA expression levels (△Ct: 12.5±1.4, 8.9±1.5, 4.3±0.8, 8.04±1.1) in the experimental group were significantly decreased comparing to those in the negative control group (△Ct: 10.2±1.1, 6.5±1.2, 2.4±1.3, 6.2±1.2 respectively, P<0.05). Levels of IFN-γ, IL-10, IL-12, IL-21 and ANA in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the negative control group (P< 0.05), but level of CCL2 was higher than the negative control group (P<0.05). Difference of OAZ mRNA expression levels (△△Ct) between the experimental group and the negative control group was negatively correlated with changes of ANA, IL-21 levels, but positively correlated with changes of Th1/Th2, CCL2. Conclusion OAZ siRNA can effectively reduce the expression of genes involved in the OAZ signaling pathway in SLE. OAZ may lead to abnormal production of ANA via regulating Id genes and cytokines.

Conclusion The study indicates urocortin may indirectly m odulate myometrial contractility during labor.

AlM: To evaluate the application of phacoemulsification of different nucleus density using ozil and traditional mode.METHODS: A total of 89 eyes (72 patients ) ( visual acuity was of 0. 6 and above after 1mo follow - up) of different nucleus density level (LOCS Ⅱ criteria grade Ⅲ 46 eyes, grade Ⅳ and more 43 eyes ) were randomly assigned into 2 groups: ozil group (group A), grade Ⅲ 22 eyes (torsional energy 80% lP on);grade Ⅳ and more 17 eyes (torsional energy 100% lP on); Traditional mode group(group B), grade Ⅲ 24 eyes (energy 50% ), grade Ⅳ and more 26 eyes (energy 60% ~ 70% ) . All surgeries were performed by the same experienced surgeon,who use the chop to split the nucleus in the application of phacoemulsification. lntraoperative parameters were total equivalent pawer ( TEP ), cumulative dissipated energy ( CDE ) and effective phaco time ( EPT ) and surgical complications. The effectiveness of the two modes in dealing with hard - core cataract phacoemulsification were compared.RESULTS: GradeⅢ nucleus dealing: TEP of ozil group was significantly higher than that of the traditional mode group [(24.58±7.78)% vs (13.84±1.97) %]and EPT of ozil group was significantly lower than that of the traditional mode group (50. 59±14. 73 s vs 60. 19±9. 04 s, P<0. 05). CDE showed no difference between two groups [(13.12±6.03)% vs (13.38±2.85)]. Grade Ⅳ and more nucleus dealing: CDE [( 34. 10 ± 13. 48 )%] and EPT (104. 64±32. 4s) of the ozil group was higher than CDE [(30. 31 ± 13. 48)%] and EPT (93. 01 ± 41. 01s) of the traditional mode group, but there were no difference between two groups. Obstacles in the needle of phacoemulsification surgery: ozil group 4/17, traditional mode group 2/26 (χ2=2. 16, P=0. 14).CONCLUSlON: Bothozil and traditional mode can deal with all kinds of nucleus effectively and safely. Ozil mode is more efficacy and quick deal in gradeⅢnucleus. With the increase of nucleus hardness, the traditional mode still have the advantage of high efficiency and no obstacle to dealing patients with grade Ⅳ and more nucleus. Choose according to different nuclear hardness ultrasonic model can improve the operation efficiency and security.

Background:Clinical features and outcomes of heart failure (HF) with mid-range ejection fraction (HFmrEF) remain controversial.Thus,we systematically reviewed literatures of clinical research to assess and analyze characteristics and prognosis of patients with HFmrEF.Methods:PubMed,Embase,and Web of Science were searched for cohort studies up to April 23,2019.Clinical features and multivariate adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) of endpoints of short-term all-cause mortality (SAM),long-term all-cause mortality (LAM),long-term cardiovascular death (LCD) and long-term HF rehospitalization (LHR) among patients with HFmrEF and HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF),HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) were well addressed.The primary outcome was LAM.Results:Totally 19 studies were included in this study with 164,678 patients enrolled.The follow-up time of LAM was 3.6 ± 2.5 years.HRs of LAM,SAM,LCD,LHR indicated that the risks of patients with HFmrEF were higher than HFpEF patients but lower than HFrEF patients,as for LAM,HFmrEF:HFpEF (reference) HR:1.07,95％ confidence interval (CI):1.00-1.15 (I2=63％,P =0.0005);HFmrEF:HFrEF (reference) HR:0.80,95％ CI:0.73-0.88 (I2=70％,P ＜ 0.0001).However,HFmrEF patients had the lowest rate in LAM (30.94％),SAM (2.73％),LCD (17.45％),LHR (26.36％) compared with the other two groups.Conclusions:This systematic review and meta-analysis compared features and prognosis between patients with HFmrEF and HFpEF,HFrEF by HRs.There appeared a special "separation phenomenon" showing rates of endpoints were inconsistent with their hazards in patients with HFmrEF compared with HFpEF patients.

[Objective] To investigate combined application of multiplex reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(mRT-PCR)and karyotype analysis detect of clonal chromosomal aberrations in acute lymphoblasfic leukemia (ALL),and explore the expression of common fusion genes.Methods 189 ALL patients were examined by multiplex RT-PCR and R or G banding techniques.[Results]10 fusion genes were detected in 69 out of 189 ALL patients(36.5％),including E2A/PBX1,TEL/AML1,BCR/ABL,MLL/AF4,MLL/AF6、MLL/AF9,MLL/AF10,MLL/ELL,SIL/TAL1,TLS/ERG.R or G banding techniques could find chromosome structural and numeracy abnormalities in 86 out of 152 patients (56.6％) available for analysis.Combination of mRT-PCR and R or G banding could raise the rate of detecting clonal chromosomal abnormalities to 69.3％.Fusion genes were detected in 33 out of 90 (36.7％) patients with adult ALL and 36out of 99 (36.4 ％) patients with children ALL,there were 22 patients with positive BCR/ABL but no TEL/AML1 in adult ALL group,while there were 24 patients with positive TEL/AML.1 and 2 with positive BCR/ABL in children ALL group.There was significant statistical difference for the expression of RCR/ABL and TEL/AML1 between adult ALL and children ALL (P＜0.01),but no difference for MLL related fusion gene,E2A/PBX1,SIL/TAL1 and TLS/ERG(P＞0.05).BCR/ABL and TEL/AML1 fusion gene could be detected in 66 ALL patients with normal karyotype (36.3％).[Conclusion]There were different biological characteristics between adults and children with ALL.mRT-PCR technique can quickly screen chromosome structural aberrations in patients with newly diagnosed leukemia.It is useful in detection of fusion genes in ALL with normal karyotypes and it would refine the karyotype analysis and provide imrootramt prognosis-relevant information.

Objective To explore the value of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and multiplex RT-PCR in the detection of mixed lineage leukemia (MLL) gene rearrangement in acute leukemia (AL) patients. Methods Dual-color MLL probe, multiplex RT-PCR and R or G banding techniques were used to detect the MLL gene rearrangement in 189 cases of AL.Results MLL gene rearrangements were detected in 9 cases (5.03 ％) by FISH,and 16 cases (8.47 ％) by multiplex RT-PCR,including MLL/AF9,MLL/AF10,MLL/AF6, MLL/AF7, MLL/ELL, MLL/PTD. R or G banding techniques could find 11q23 in 5 out of 189 patients (2.65 ％). There was no statistic difference in the incidence of 6 common MLL gene rearrangements between ALL (73 cases) and AML patients (116 cases) (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Multiplex RT-PCR is a powerful technique in the detection of MLL gene rearrangement for tentatively diagnosed AL.It could not only confirm translocation detected by conventional cytogenetic method, but also detect MLL partial tandem duplication which could not been detected by cytogenetic examination or FISH. It plays an important role in guiding therapy and predicting prognosis for AL.

Objective To study the feasibility of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in low pneumoperitoneum pres sure and the effct of low pressure pneumoperitoneum on liver enzymes.Methods A total of 128 cases of laparoscopic gallbladder resection for gallbladder stones or chronic acalculous cholecystitis patients came from outpatient of Department of Two General Surgery of Daxing Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from Jan.2010 to Apr.2015.Patients with odd hospital numbers were divided into the conventional pressure group (group A:12-14 mmHg,n =64).Patients with even numbers were divided into the low pressure group (group B:8-10 mmHg,n =64).The venous blood was respectively collected at the first day and second day preoperatively to determine and compare the contents of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase(AST) in two groups.The mean and standard deviation of the above indexes and operation time of two group patients are compared.Results All patients were successfully completed surgery.The average operation time of group A was (65 ± 6.5) minutes,and group B was (61 ± 8.2) minutes,and there was no significant difference between the two groups (t =2.212,P =0.976).Compared with the A group,the B group had less effect on the aminotransferase,the data of the two groups were significantly different (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Laparoscopic gallbladder resection underwent the low pneumoperitoneal pressure (8-10 mmHg) is safe and feasible,doesnt extend the operation time,and helps to reduce the effect of pneumoperitoneum pressure on transaminase,which is much important for patients with abnormal aminotransferase preoperative.
