Objective To investigate the expression of serum microRNA-210 (miR-210) in patients with acute cerebral infarction(ACI),and to evaluate its clinical significance. Methods A retrospective study was conducted. Eighty patients with ACI admitted to Tianjin Hospital from January 2011 to March 2014 within 48 hours of onset were enrolled,and 30 healthy volunteers served as controls. The peripheral blood was collected,and the expression of serum miR-210 was determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR). The receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was drawn to analyze the role of miR-210 in the diagnosis of ACI. According to the pathological and physiological characteristics of patients receiving treatment,the relationship between miR-210 and clinical physiology index was analyzed. Results The expression of miR-210 in serum of patients with ACI was significantly lower than that of the healthy control group(2-ΔΔCt:1.349±0.043 vs. 1.923±0.107,t=6.567, P<0.000). ROC analysis results showed that the sensitivity of miR-210 in the diagnosis of ACI was 90.4%,the specificity was 76.2%,and the area under the ROC(AUC)was 0.804〔95%confidence interval(95%CI)=0.700-0.908〕. No difference in expression of miR-210(2-ΔΔCt)in serum was found in patients of different gender,age, and infarction area(male and female:1.33±0.13 and 1.31±0.06,t=3.562,P=0.473;≤60 years and>60 years:1.32±0.12 and 1.31±0.09,t=2.351,P=0.264;large infarction,small infarction,lacunar infarction:respectively 1.31±0.02, 1.33±0.11, 1.31±0.06, F=1.236, P=0.087), or with the severity of cerebral infarction,and there was a tendency in lowering of expression of miR-210(2-ΔΔCt,light,medium,severe:1.53±0.11, 1.33±0.11,1.08±0.04,F=5.394,P=0.014).Conclusion The serum level of miR-210 in ACI was significantly lower than that in normal healthy persons,and it may be an important new serological marker in screening and diagnosis of ACI.

Objectives To study the expression features of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP)/natriuretic peptide receptor-B (NPR-B) axis and two parallel elimination pathways, natriuretic peptide receptor-C (NPR-C) and neutral endopeptidase (NEP) in unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) rats. Methods CNP, NPR-B, NPR-C, NEP, Col-IV and type IV collagen (Col-IV) mRNA and proteins were determined by in situ hybridization, real-time PCR, immunohistochemistry and western blot in UUO rats at 24h, 72h, 1w, 2w, 3w, 1m, 2m and 3m. Results CNP expression tended to be higher immediately after ligation and de-clined along with the progression of disease, occurring predominantly in tubular epithelial cells. A high-level CNP may attribute to the elevated expression of NPR-B in the early phase of UUO. Conclusions NEP and NPR participate in the regulation of CNP expression in tubulointerstitial fibrosis. The gradual increased expression of NPR-C and NEP may cause the subsequent de-cline of CNP.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and safety of transcatheter closure of coronary artery fistula (CAF)with Amplatzer vascular PlugⅡ(AVPⅡ)in pediatric patients.Methods Between June 2012 and October 2015,5 children aged 0.9 to 7.0 years old and weighted 10 to 21 kg with CAF were admitted to the Department of Pediatric Cardiology in Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University.Aortic root angiography was used first to confirm the origin,shape,branches,drainage and the diameter of the orifice of CAF by deploying the pigtail catheter.The AVPⅡwas retrogradely deployed into targeted artery through guiding catheter and aortic angiography was performed before releasing the plug.Results All the 5 children underwent transcatheter closure by AVPⅡsuccessful-ly.Two cases were involved with right coronary -right ventricular fistula,1 case of left anterior descending coronary -right ventricular fistula (residual fistula after surgical repair),and 1 case of left circumflex coronary -left atrial fistula. Four children had a single fistula,and 1 case had double fistulas.The diameter of the orifice ranged from 2.00 to 5.96 mm,and the selected occluders from 8 to 14 mm.The ratio of diameter of occluder to fistula orifice ranged from 2.3 to 3.4.All the patients were followed up for 4 to 44 months.Two patients developed instant minor and modera-te aortic re-gurgitation.No other complications such as thrombosis,embolization,residual shunt,arrhythmia,coronary dissection or perforation occurred.Conclusions Transcatheter closure of CAF by AVPⅡin pediatric patients is feasible and safe. Aortic regurgitation should be noted,especially during the procedure.
