Serum vitamin A, beta-carntene and lgG, IgA, IgM and T-lymphocyte Mastogenesis were measured in lung cancer patients, nonmalignant lung, disease and healthy controls matched lor age, sex and smoking. Mean serum vitamin A of lung cancer (except 5 adenocarcinoma) was significantly lower than that of healthy controls and non-malignant lung disease. Beta-caroiene levels were within the normal range, but mean serum beta-carotene concentration oi lung cancer patients was 24.7% lower, IgA of lung career and non-malignant lung disease patients was significantly higher, IgM and the rate of T-lymphocy te, blastogenesis of patients with lung cancer were lower than that of healthy controls, respectively. Serum IgG was not significant in 3 groups. An inverse relation, between serum vitamin A and IgM of hcalthy controls and arelation between serum vitamin A and IgG of lung cancer patients were observed. These data demonstrate an influence of vitamin A on immune function in lung cancer patients.

This paper was designed to study the effects of cellulose, pectin and ag-ar at 10% level on the concentration of serum total cholesterol (TC), trigly-ceride (TG) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in rats. Male adult Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups and fed on basal diet, hypercholesterolemic diet (control diet) and 3 test diets (contain 10% cellulose, pectin or agar respectively) for 6 weeks. The results showed that all three fibrous diets were significantly lowered serum TC (P

Objective To investigate the changes of serum procalcitonin (PCT), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C reactive protein (CRP) in children with Henoch-Sch?nlein purpura (HSP) combined with surgical complications. Methods From January 2010 to June 2013, 48 children with HSP combined surgical complications were enrolled, the fasting venous blood were obtained in day 1, 3, 5 of admission and before discharge. Meanwhile, 30 healthy children were selected as control. Results Compared with the control group, the levels of serum PCT and IL-6 in day 1, 3, 5 of admission, and the levels of serum CRP in day 1, 3 of admission were higher in children with HSP combined with surgical complications (all P<0.01). The differences of levels of serum PCT, CRP and IL-6 in day 1, 3, 5 of admission and before discharge were statistically signiifcant between surgical group and non-surgical group. All these indicators showed a gradual downward trend. Compared with surgical group, the levels of serum PCT and IL-6 in day 3, 5 of admission and serum CRP in day 5 of admission were signiifcantly lower in non-surgical group (P<0.05). There were positive linear correlations between the level of serum PCT and IL-6, and between the level of PCT and CRP (r=0.48, 0.62, P<0.01). Conclusions The changes of serum PCT, IL-6 and CRP may be associated with the occurrence of surgical complications in children with HSP, monitor these indicators may help to assess the condition and to guide the treatment.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of different time administration of propofol on cytochrome c (Cyt c) in the cytoplasm in rat hippocampal neurons with hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) injury.MethodsPrimary cultured hippocampal neurons were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n =5 each):control group (group C),model of H/R injury group (group M),and different time administration of propofol groups (group Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ ).In groups M,Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ,the neurons were exposed to 95％ N2 + 5％ CO2 for6 h followed by 12 h reoxygenation.In groups Ⅰ, Ⅱ,Ⅲ,propofol was added to the culture medium before hypoxia,immediately after reoxygenation and at 2 h of reoxygenation (T0-2) respectively,with the final concentration of 20 μmol/L.The cell apoptosis was observed at T1,2 and at 24 h of reoxygenation ( T3 ) and the concentration of Cyt c in the cytoplasm was detected at T1-3.ResultsCompared with group C,the concentration of Cyt c in the cytoplasm was significantly increased at T1-3 in group M and at T1,2 in groups Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group M,the concentration of Cyt c in the cytoplasm was significantly decreased at T1-3 in group I and at T1,2 in groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ ( P ＜0.05).The concentration of Cyt c in the cytoplasm was significantly higher at T1,2 in groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ than in group Ⅰ,and at T2 in group Ⅲ than in group Ⅱ ( P ＜ 0.05).The neuronal apoptosis was significantly decreased in groups Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ as compared with group M.ConclusionDifferent time administration of propofol can reduce the mitochondrial Cyt c release to the cytoplasm,inhibit apoptosis in hippocampal neurons,and reduce H/R injury in rats,with better effect when given before hypoxia.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of ischemia postconditioning intervention in a rabbit's acute mesenteric ischemia-reperfusion injury model.Methods 120 rabbits were divided randomly into Con( only expose SMA by operation),I/R( clamping SMA 30 min,reperfusing 120 min),IpostC1 ( clamping SMA 30 min,3 clamping 30 s/releasing 30 s round,reperfusing 117 min),and IpostC2 (clamping SMA 30 min,3 clamping 60 s/releasing 60 s round,reperfusing 114 min) group (n =30).Levels of MDA and MPO in serum and intestinal tissues were measured. Chiu-6 standard scoring was used to determine the pathology score of injured intestinal mucosae.ResultsCompared with the Con group,MDA and MPO levels in serum and intestinal tissues increased obviously in the three other groups,the same as in the pathology score of injured intestinal mucosae (P ＜ 0.01 ) ; Compared with the I/R group,the MDA and MPO levels in serum and intestinal tissues decreased obviously in the IpostC1 group ( P ＜ 0.01 ),but not in the IpostC2 group ( P ＞ 0.05 ).ConclusionsMDA and MPO levels in serum and intestinal tissues and intestinal mucosal injury decreased obviously in the rabbit's acute mesenteric ischemia-reperfusion injury model by ischemia postconditioning intervention.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of endovascular treatment for closed limb artery trauma. MethodsFrom March 2006 to December 2011,the clinical data of 12 cases treated for closed limb artery trauma were analyzed retrospectively.Catheters sheath were placed by antegrade or retrograde puncture.Catheters was send to the proximal end of the lesion.Intraoperatively through angiography the location and extent of arterial lesions were determined.Catheter with the help of guidewire were sent through the lesion to establish treatment “ pathway,at the lesion site suitable stents were placed to repair damaged arteries. ResultsThe procedure was all successful in 12 patients,there was no mortality nor sever compalications.Postoperatively 2 cases suffered from acute renal failure,and were managed and cured by continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CWH).Osteofascial compartment incision decompression was carried out in 3 cases due to osteofascial compartment syndrome.One case of them suffered from amputation due to sever muscle necrosis and lost of limb function.Eleven patients were followed-up for 1year.All the arteries were patent.There were no stent break,deformation or stenosis.ConclusionsEndovascular techniques for the treatment of closed limb arterial trauma is safe and effective.

Objective:To investigate the effect of different stent oversize in thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) on lumen remodeling of type B aortic dissection (TBAD).Methods:The clinical and follow-up data of 89 TBAD patients receiving TEVAR from Nov 2010 to Jun 2020 at Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. According to the difference of proximal stent oversize, 89 patients were divided into: low oversize group (<10%, 47 cases) and high oversize group (≥10%, 42 cases). The changes of the normal vessel diameter and area at the proximal end of the stent and the long diameter, short diameter and area of the true/false lumen at the distal end of the stent at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery and postoperative complications were analyzed.Results:The change of proximal vessel diameter with time in the low oversize group is smaller than that in the high oversize group ( P<0.05),and the change of the distal false lumen area of the stent in the low oversize group was greater than that in the high oversize group ( P<0.05). The high oversize group was prone to retrograde type A aortic dissection (RTAD) ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Low oversize stents are more conducive to the remodeling of the aortic lumen in the early and mid-term after TEVAR in TBAD patients.

Malaria still threatens global health seriously today. While the current discoveries of antimalarials are almost totally focused on single mode-of-action inhibitors, multi-targeting inhibitors are highly desired to overcome the increasingly serious drug resistance. Here, we performed a structure-based drug design on mitochondrial respiratory chain of
