Objective To prepare dual-targeted microbubbles carrying both anti-CD34 monoclonal antibody and anti-ICAM-1 monoclonal antibody,to identify its basic characteristics,and to investigate its targeting performance in vitro.Methods ICAM-1-targeted microbubbles (MgIcAM-1),CD34-targeted microbubbles(MBcD34) and dual-targeted (with both monoclonal antibodies) microbubbles (MBD) were prepared by biotin-avidin bridging chemistry method.The targeted microbubbles were observed under light microscrope and characterized by a Mastersizer 3000,DFY software,laser confocal microscopy,and flow cytometry.The targeting specificity and attachment capability of dual-targeted microbubbles to endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) and damaged human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were assessed in vitro.Results The morphous,diameter,surface potential,concentration,and the antibody-binding rates of microbubbles were not statistically significant in MBIcAM-1,MBCD34,and MBD (P >0.05).Echo intensity in MBD significantly increased compared with MBICAM1,MBCD34,and MBiotin (P < 0.01).The targeting experiment in vitro showed that the attachment rate of MBD to EPCs and damaged HUVECs significantly increased compared with MBiotin (P <0.01),while no remarkable difference in attachment rate was found between MBD and MBcD34 in EPCs,and between MBD and MBIcAM-1 in damaged HUVECs (P >0.05).Conclusions Dual-targeted microbubbles carrying both anti-CD34 monoclonal antibody and anti-ICAM-1 monoclonal antibody are prepared successfully.The study in vitro has proved that the dual-targeted microbubbles can specifically bind to both EPCs and damaged HUVECs.

Objective To explore the accuracy and feasibility of dual-source CT(DSCT)in evaluating the left ventricular function compared with echocardiography.Methods 30 cases of coronary heart disease were continuously collected in our hospital ,and dual-source CT and echocardiography were examined in a week.Left ventricular function parameters (LVEDV,LVESV,LVSV)were measured,and paired sample t test was compared to show whether there was any difference between the two methods,Rates betweengroups were compared with Chi-square test,Pearson correlation analysis method was applied to calculate the correlation between the two methods.Results There was no statistically significant difference for LVEDV,LVESV,LVSV,LVEF parameters between the two methods (t test,P >0.05).By Pearson test,the correlation coefficient was r=0.770-0.938(P <0.05),in which the high relation between the two methods was showed.Conclusion A strong accuracy of dual-source CT in evaluating left ventricular function is demonstrated.Dual-source CT angiography is a noninvasive assessment of coronary tree,whereas the analysis of the left ventricular parameters provides additional information of cardiac function without further radiation exposure or scan time,which can provide a more intuitive and system information for clinical.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the method for contents determination of catechins active components in lipid-lowering slimming health products. METHODS:HPLC method was adopted. Using epigallocatechin gallate(EGCG)as a reference,relative correction factor(RCF)of EGCG to gallocatechin(EGC),catechin(C),epicatechin(EC),gallocatechin gallate(GCG)and gal-loylepicatechin(ECG)were calculated. The contents of EGC,C,EC,GCG and ECG in 5 batches of samples were calculated through RCF. The contents of EGC,C,EC,GCG and ECG determined by external standard method were used as measured value. The similarity of the value determined by external standard method with the value calculated by quantitative analysis of multi-com-ponents via single marker method(QAMS)was evaluated with vector included angle cosine method. RESULTS:The linear ranges of EGCG,EGC,C,EC,GCG and ECG were 0.0065-0.1305 mg/mL(r=0.9998)、0.0005-0.0107 mg/mL(r=0.9997)、0.0020-0.0400 mg/mL(r=0.9999)、0.0153-0.3053 mg/mL(r=0.9998)、0.0008-0.0155 mg/mL(r=0.9998)、0.0040-0.0792 mg/mL (r=0.9999);RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 2.0%.The recoveries were 95.07%-100.35%(RSD=1.94%,n=6)、95.24%-101.87%(RSD=2.79%,n=6)、96.08%-103.86%(RSD=3.01%,n=6)、97.51%-101.06%(RSD=1.45%,n=6)、96.01%-101.66%(RSD=2.27%,n=6)、96.20%-102.89%(RSD=2.71%,n=6),respectively. There was no signifi-cant difference between measured value and calculated value. CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,precise,stable and repro-ducible,and can be used for contents determination of catechins active components in lipid-lowering slimming health products.

The formation of bone-like apatite on porous HA/beta-TCP bioceramics in dynamic simulated body fluid (SBF) undergoing a simulated inflammation procedure (pH = 6.5) was investigated in order to study the mechanism of osteoinduction and build a new method to choose biomaterials with better bioactivity. The results showed that the surface of porous HA/beta-TCP bioceramics which underwent a simulated inflammation procedure in dynamic SBF was more smooth. The light acidity in the simulated inflammation procedure would dissolve the fine grains and the parts possessing smaller curvature radius on the surface of porous HA/beta-TCP bioceramics, which would reduce the bioceramics solubility. Followed in normal SBF (pH = 7.4), the amount of bone-like apatite formed on the porous HA/beta-TCP bioceramics was less than that of porous HA/beta-TCP bioceramics incubation in normal SBF all along. The results also showed that the amount of bone-like apatite formed on the porous HA/beta-TCP bioceramics sintered by a microwave plasma was more than that of porous HA/beta-TCP bioceramics sintered by a conventional furnace.

Objective:To analyze the value of low dose enteral nutrition (EN) in treatment of septic shock combined with acute gastrointestinal injury Ⅲ (AGI Ⅲ).Methods:Clinical data of septic shock patients combined with AGI Ⅲ admitted at our hospital were analyzed.Patients were divided into two groups according to the nutrition therapy they received:treatment group (EN,n =41) and control group (no EN,n =46).The mortality and ICU hospital stays were collected.The intestinal barrier,inflammatory cytokines,and oxidative stress were evaluated before and after EN treatment.Results:For patients in the treatment group,the dosages of EN ranged from 200 to 410 kcal/d,with the median dose of 350 kcal/d.No significant differences were found on death rates between the two groups (24.4%vs 32.6%,P =0.398).Patients in the treatment group had shorter ICU hospital stays than those of the control group (11.8 ± 3.7 vs 16.2 ± 5.3,P <0.01).After one week EN treatment,patients in the treatment group had lower levels of CRP,IL-6,TNF-α,diamine oxidase,endotoxin and D-lactate than those of the control group (P < 0.05).Conclusion:For septic shock patients combined with AGI Ⅲ,low dose EN can improve the intestinal barrier function and systemic inflammatory responses.

Objective:
To study the association between eating at night and skipping breakfast with college students anxiety symptoms, and to provide reference basis for preventing and alleviating college students anxiety symptoms.
Methods:
A cross sectional survey was conducted among 9 960 freshman from three universities in Kunming and Dali, Yunnan Province. The dietary frequency questionnaire was used to evaluate the dietary behavior of college students. The Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) was used to evaluate the anxiety symptoms of college students. The association of late night snack and breakfast skipping with the association of anxiety symptoms in college students used generalized linear model and Logistic regression model.
Results:
The proportion of college students who reported eating at night and breakfast skipping in the last month was 72.5%(7 217/9 960) and 61.6%(6 131/9 960) respectively. The detection rate of anxiety symptoms in college students was 28.9%(2 875/9 960). There was a statistical significance between eating at night with anxiety symptoms( OR =1.40-2.54), and breakfast skipping with anxiety symptoms( OR =1.23-1.60)( P <0.05). The interaction between eating late at night and breakfast skipping was positively correlated with college students anxiety symptoms (multiplicative interaction, β=0.06, 95%CI=0.02- 0.10 , P<0.01; additive interaction, OR=2.00, 95%CI=1.59-2.51, P <0.01).
Conclusion
The study suggests that the college students who eat at night and frequently skipped breakfast are more likely to have anxiety symptoms. It suggested to promote the formation of healthy eating habits of college students, so as to reduce the occurrence of anxiety sympotoms.
