1.Research progress in genetic susceptibility to alcoholic liver disease
Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2017;33(2):379-383
Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is one of the most common chronic liver diseases in clinical practice with a complicated pathogenesis.Genetic factors play an important role in the pathogenesis of ALD and might be the potential targets for the treatment of ALD.This article reviews the susceptibility genes associated with ALD in recent years and points out that the exploration of the mechanisms of action of these genes in the development and progression of ALD can provide a theoretical basis for effective evaluation,diagnosis,and prevention and treatment of ALD in clinical practice.

Journal of Kunming Medical University 2013;(8):110-113
Objective To investigate the effect of serum uric acid (UA) on cardiovascular diseases in hemodialysis patients. Methods The serum level of uric acid and other laboratory indexes of 80 hemodialysis patients were detected,and the left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were detected by ultrasonic cardiography examination. Results According to the serum level of UA, the hemodialysis patients were divided into 2 groups:the group with high serum level of UA and the group with normal serum level of UA. There were significant differences (P<0.05) in hypertension history,the period of hypertension history, systolic blood pressure before hemodialysis between the two groups. The serum levels of UA,creatinine, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, C-reactive protein, brain natriuretic peptide and LVMI were significantly higher,while the serum levels of albumin,pre-albumin,high density lipoprotein cholesterol, LVEF were lower in the group with high serum level of UA than those in the group with normal high serum level of UA (P<0.05) . Furthermore, the serum levels of UA in 80 patients was positively correlated to systolic blood pressure before hemodialysis, serum creatinine, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, C-reactive protein, brain natriuretic peptide, and LVMI (P<0.05), while it was negatively correlated to serum albumin, pre-albumin, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and LVEF (P<0.05) . Conclusion High serum level of uric acid is associated with the onset of cardiovascular diseases in hemodialysis patients.

After partial decortication of the parietal cortex of adult rats, division of neurons and glial cells as well as proliferation of macrophages, endothelial cells, pericytes, around the damaged cortical area were observed. The criteria for differentiating mitotic neurons from other cell components especially neuroglia are: (1) the cell body of a dividing neuron especially the pyramidal type is considerably larger than glial cells, and is slightly larger than the adjacent resting neurons of similar type; (2) a dividing neuron has characteristic cell processes, identifiable as axons and apical dendrites, a morphological feature of pyramidal cells; and (3) the dividing neurons contain Nissl granules.The neurons undergo mitosis were located around the lesion area, 37~500 ?m from its border of the lesion. The cortical lamina No. V has more mitotic neurons than any other layers; the explanation for which has been discussed.

Objective To study the feasibility of joint phototherapy in the treatment of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and non-drug therapy in clinical popularization value of 1064 nm Qswitched laser in combination with low energy intense pulsed noncoherent light for secondary pigmentation.Methods A total of 128 patients with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation were randomly divided into 3 groups according to different treatments:first group (42 cases) was subjected to low energy 1064 nm Q-switched laser treatment;second group (40 cases) had intense pulsed light treatment;third group (46 cases) had low energy 1064 nm Q-switched laser plus intense pulsed light therapy.Results After treating for 6 times,the effective rates of intense pulsed light and Q laser were 50% (20/40) and 52.4% (22/42),respectively,without statistical significance between two groups (P>0.05).Effective rate of the third group was 73.9% (34/46),with significant difference (P<0.05),compared with the first two groups.Conclusions For those who refuse any drug treatment,low energy 1064 nm Q-switched laser with intense pulsed light therapy is an effective option to facial postinflammatory hyperpigmentation.Furthermore,it has obvious and safe effect without complications and deserves popularization.

Objective To detect biofilm formation and biofilm-associated genes of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in clinical isolates. Methods The biofilm were determined by microtiter plate assay (MPA) and congo red agar (CRA) and the biofilm-associated genes icaA,sarA,fnbA,fnbB were detected by PCR in 33 strains of MRSA in clinical isolates. Results Of the 33 MRSA isolates, 29(87.9%) were MPA positive, 16(48.5%) were CRA positive; The icaA gene was present in 39.4% of isolated strains. Furthermore, 69.7% of strains harboured the sarA gene, 39.4% were fnbA positive and 75.8% were fnbB positive. As many as 87.9% strains had the ability to form biofilm in vitro. 44.8% of MRSA formed biofilm in ica-dependent mechanism and 55.2% of MRSA isolates formed biofilm in ica-independent mechanism. Of the biofilm positive MRSA, 75.9% were sarA positive, 37.9% were fnbA positive and 79.3% were fnbB positive. Conclusion Most of the MRSA strains formed biofilm in ica-independent mechanism. fnbB and sarA gene shows higher frequency among the biofilm-associated genes of MRSA, it may infer that most of the MRSA strains biofilm formation are fnbB-mediated. Meanwhile, sarA may be a positive regulator of fnbB, and thus drives the biofilm formation.

Objective To analyze the impacts of early enteral nutrition (EN) and parenteral nutrition (PN) on the prognosis of acute pancreatitis.Method By searching relevant literature between January 1996 and August 2013 in Chinese and English databases including Wanfang,VIP,CNKI,PubMed,the Cochrane Library,CBM,and EMABSE,we compared the prognosis of acute pancreatitis after EN or PN in terms of casefatality rate,infections,multiple organ failure,and other complications.Result Compared with PN,early EN significantly reduced the case-fatality rate [OR =0.37,95% CI (0.23,0.58),P < 0.000 1],decreased the infection rate [OR =0.24,95% CI (0.15,0.39),P <0.000 01],shortened hospital stay [MD =-9.87,95% CI (-10.84,-8.89),P < 0.000 01],and reduced complications [OR =0.26,95% CI (0.12,0.58),P =0.001 0] in patients with acute pancreatitis,although the incident of multi-organ failure showed no significant difference [OR =0.35,95% CI (0.10,1.19),P =0.09].Conclusions For patients with acute pancreatitis,early EN is superior than PN in terms of case-fatality rate,infection rate,hospital stay,and complications.Therefore,it should be applied in such patients whenever condition allows.
