Objective To investigate the change of serum matix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2) level and its significance in patients with acute ischemic stroke of different subtypes. Methods Seventy-seven patients with acute ischemic stroke were classified into large-artery atherosclerosis (LAA) (n =29, 37. 66% ), small artery occlusion (SAO, lacunar infarction) (n =23, 29.87%), cardioembolism (CE) (n = 13,16. 88%), stroke of undemonstrated etiology (SUE) (n = 7, 9.09% ), and stroke of other demonstrated etiology (SOE) (n = 5, 6. 49%) according to the TOAST criteria. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the levels of serum MMP-2 in patients with acute ischemic stroke at 24 hours and 7 days, and they were compared with 42 controls. Results The serum MMP-2 levels at 24 hours and 7 days of the onset of symptoms in the acute ischemic stroke group according to the TOAST criteria were 189. 55 ±24.79 and 307.46 ±84. 16 ng/ml respectively, and they were all significantly higher than 159.76 ± 10. 32 ng/ml in the control group (all P <0.05). Among all the TOAST subtypes, SOE and SUE were not analyzed because of the small numbers of cases; among other subtypes, the serum MMP-2 levels at 24 hours of the onset of symptoms in the LAA, SAO and CE groups were 218. 60 ± 13.42,175.21 ±9.92, and 167.26 ±9.7 ng/ml respectively, and they were all significantly higher than those in the control group (all P < 0. 05); at day 7 of the onset of symptoms they were 404.75 ± 10. 30, 293.18 ± 10.91, and 211.81 ±11.14 ng/ml respectively, and they were also significantly higher than those in the control group (all P < 0.05). Among those, the LAA group was increased significantly (P < 0. 01). Conclusions The serum MMP-2 levels were increased in patients with acute cerebral infarction. "l'ne changes of the serum MMP-2 levels in each TOAST subtype group were different. The LAA group increased most significantly, which supported the different views of the etiology of cerebral infarction subtypes. The serum MMP-2 plays an important role in the process of cerebral infarction of the LAA type.

Objective Fructus Amomi(Sharen) is derived from the dry ripe fruit of Amomum villosum Lour., A.villosum Lour. var. xanthioides T.L. Wu et Senjen and A.longiligulate T.L.Wu, which is widely utilized for its clinic effects on digestive system. However, Fructus Amomi from different species and habitats, possessing different quality, is difficult to identify. In this study, we aim to develop a simple, rapid and reliable method for authentication of Fructus Amomi. Methods Twenty-five batches of samples of Fructus Amomi were collected and electronic nose was introduced into analyzing their odor with multiple mathematical statistics methods. Na?ve bayes network (NBN), radical basis function (RBF) and random forest (RF) were applied to establish different classifiers while BestFirst+CfsSubsetEval (BC) was used to screen the attributes for searching sensor array with higher contributions. Results Firstly, after attribute-screening via BC, the established discriminative models via NBN, RBF and RF could successfully identify genuine and non-genuine samples, presenting correct judging ratios of 78% and 84% through ten-fold cross validation and external test set validation, respectively. Besides, quantity predictive models were constructed as well. In case of content of bornyl acetate, one of the effective components in Fructus Amomi, values were higher than 3.5 mg/g and lower than 1.8 mg/g with sensor response of 0.04 and 0.03, respectively. Conclusion In this paper, quality discriminative model and quantity predictive model of Fructus Amomi were established via electronic nose and multiple mathematical statistics methods. It indicates that electronic nose could be a promising method for quality evaluation of Chinese material medica.
