International Journal of Pediatrics 2016;43(8):593-597
Pulmonary arterial hypertension is the result of a variety of heart,lung disease and finally leads to right heart failure and death.Pulmonary arterial hypertension is characterized by the progressive increasing of artery pressure and the gradually increasing of pulmonary vascular resistance,and its pathogenesis has not been fully elucidated.Recent studies have found that transforming growth factor beta/bone morphogenetic protein pathway plays an important role in pulmonary arterial hypertension.The research about transforming growth factor betal bone morphagenetic protein pathway provides a new theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension.This review focuses on progress of transforming growth factor beta/bone morphogenetic protein pathway and genetic mechanisms of pulmonary arterial hypertension.
3.Risk factors analysis of diabetic ketoacidosis combined with elevated serum amylase
Chinese Journal of Diabetes 2017;25(9):812-816
Objective To investigate the clinical risk factors of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA ) combined with elevated serum amylase(AMS). Methods Totally 263 patients with DKA were enrolled in our study. They were divided into 2 groups according to the level of AMS:DKA with normal AMS (DKA,n=188);DKA with elevated AMS(HAMS,n = 75 ). HAMS patients then were divided into two subgroups according to the diagnosis with acute pancreatitis(AP)(HAMS+ AP,n = 25 )and without AP (HAMS,n = 50 ). TG,FPG and AMS were measured and analyzed with univariate analysis and multivariate analysis. Results HAMS group patients had a ratio of 28.5% with elevated AMS and 9.5% with AP.HAMS group had higher FPG,TG,HbA1 c,Na+ ,osmolality,BUN and Scr than DKA group(P <0.05).The levels of FPG,TG,osmolality,BUN and the time of CO2 CP recovery in HAMS+AP subgroup were all significantly higher than those in HAMS patients without AP (P < 0.05 ). Correlation analysis showed that HAMS was positively correlated with TG,FPG,Na+ ,Osmolality and BUN(P <0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that hypertriglyceridemia was the independent risk factor of DKA combined with HAMS(OR 1.244,P <0.01),and was the independent risk factor of DKA combined with AP(OR 1.211,P <0.05). Conclusion Hypertriglyceridemia is the related risk factor of DKA combined with HAMS and AP. This study provides a theoretical basis to early screen patients with hyperamylasemia in DKA.

7.A Survey on the Current Situation of Smoking and Smoking Cessation in 184 Patients with Cardiovascular Disease
Journal of Kunming Medical University 2013;(12):60-64
Objective To understand the current situation of smoking and quitting smoking in patients with cardiovascular disease. Methods 184 cases of inpatients or outpatients with cardiovascular disease treated in the First People's Hospital of Kunming were surveyed about quitting smoking, and the smoking and smoking cessation-related clinical features of patients with cardiovascular disease were analyzed. Results ( 1) Cardiovascular diseases in smokers was male-dominated (100%), mainly hypertension and/or coronary heart disease (179, 97.3%) . (2) Average age of starting smoking was 21.5, 97.8%of patients had smoked more than 10 years, with an average of 35.1 ±13.4 years, 69.6% of patients smoked ≥10 cigarettes/day, with an average of 16.3 ± 10.1 cigarettes/day, 65.8%of patients were in the low level of nicotine dependence, 81.5%of the patients thought that quitting smoking was important, 76.1% had quitting smoking ideas, 67.4% had confidence in the success of quitting smoking, 50.5%thought that it was difficult to quit smoking, 127 (69%) patients had seriously quit smoking. (3) 65 cases (51.2%) who seriously quit smoking had succeeded, 54 patients (83.1%) received varying degrees of medical staff advised to quit smoking, 62 cases (48.8%) in relapse, only 34 patients (54.8%) accepted medical personnel advised to quit. Two sets of chi-square test, p=0.000, prompted difference was statistically significant. Relapse reasons were pressure, craving and around other smokers. Conclusions Smoking patients with cardiovascular disease are mainly constituted by male patients with hypertension and/or coronary heart disease. Most of the patients recognize that quitting smoking is important, and have idea and seriously quit smoking. However, lack of confidence and smoking which has also become a lifestyle significantly affect the success of smoking cessation. The medical staffs' recommending smoking cessation persuasion can largely improve the success of smoking cessation for patients.
