ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to determine whether fQRS is associated with increased ventricular arrhythmic event in patients with Acute ST- elevation Myocardial Infarction.Methods 12-lead ECG, 24h-Holter monitoring and biochemical markers detection were performed in sixty cases with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction, which were divided into two groups[fQRS group and nonfQRS group]according to Fragmented QRS (fQRS) on 12-lead ECG.Then ventricular arrhythmic events were analyzed.ResultsVentricular premature beats (24 h, 3140 +555 vs 1226 + 142, P ＜0.01) and the incidence of complex ventricular arrhythmic events(34.4％ vs 10.7％, P ＜0.05) in fQRS group were significantly higher than that in non- fQRS group.ConclusionsFragmented QRS may be used to predict ventricular arrhythmic events in patients with acute ST- elevation myocardial infarction.

Objective To study liver regeneration of the non-ligated liver lobes following portal branch ligation (PBL). Methods Sixty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into PBL group and sham operation (SO) group. Under ether anesthesia, the rats were subjected to PBL and sham operation, respectively. The animals were sacrificed on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 7th and 14th day respectively. The blood sample was collected from heart and the livers were harvested to determine serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels and total liver weight, respectively. The hepatic histopathology was studied through light microscopy. The number of liver cell nuclear mitosis index was counted. The number of proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) index was counted by immunohistochemistry. The hepatic ultrastructural changes were studied under electron microscope. Results Elevated serum ALT level was observed in the first postoperative day in PBL group compared with SO group (P

Objective To observe the detection value of α-L-fucosidase (AFU) in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and the correlation of AFU with total bile acids (TBA).Methods Anthropometric parameters and serum biochemical indexes were recorded and 75 g OGTT was performed then according to OGTT result,patients with GDM were confirmed and matched the control group by age and BMI.Results The level of AFU in GDM group was higher than that that of normal glucose tolerance (NGT) group and associated with 1 hour postprandial glucose.After correcting ALT and HbA1c,AFU correlated with TBA.Conclusions During pregnancy,AFU has reference value for the diagnosis of GDM and 1 hour postprandial glucose is its independent factor.The rise AFU is combined with the decrease of.DBIL but the increase of TBA and ALP,which indicates bile duct system in patients with GDM is in an active state.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between prolonged PR interval and carotid atherosclerosis(CAS)in middle-aged and elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods:A total of 537 middle-aged and elderly inpatients with T2DM in the Southern Branch of the Sixth People′s Hospital of Shanghai Jiaotong University from January 2019 to January 2021 were selected as the research objects. Color Doppler ultrasound was used to detect bilateral carotid artery intima-media thickness(CIMT). The subjects were divided into carotid atherosclerosis group(CAS group, n=352)and non-carotid atherosclerosis group(NCAS group, n=185). The difference in the PR interval of ECG between the two groups was compared. Pearson or Spearman rank correlation analysis was used for evaluating the correlation of PR interval and CAS lesions with various clinical index. The relationship between PR interval and CAS lesions was adopted by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results:The average PR interval of middle-aged and elderly patients with T2DM was(164.57±23.02)ms. The average PR interval in CAS group was significantly higher than that in NCAS group [(169.76±24.28) vs (154.70±16.42)ms, P<0.01]. The results of multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that age, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol, serum osteocalcin, and PR interval were independent factors influencing the development of CAS lesions in middle-aged and elderly patients with T2DM( OR=1.079, 1.936, 0.879, 1.039, respectively, P<0.05 or P<0.01)where each 1 ms increase in PR interval was associated with a 3.9% increase in the risk of CAS in middle-aged and elderly patients with T2DM( OR=1.039, 95% CI 1.006-1.073, P=0.020). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that middle-aged and elderly type 2 diabetic patients with PR interval≥158 ms were 4.072 times more likely to have CAS lesions than those with PR interval<158 ms( OR=4.072, 95% CI 1.417-11.702, P<0.01). Conclusion:The PR interval of electrocardiogram is correlated with CAS lesions in middle-aged and elderly patients with T2DM. Middle-aged and elderly type 2 diabetic patients with significantly prolonged PR interval should be reminded to screen for CAS lesions early.

glioma; U87 cell; U251 cell; MAGE-A1; MAGE-A3; DNA methylation; histone acetylation To detect the expressions of melanoma antigen genes MAGE-A1 and MAGE-A3 in glioma tissues and to explore their clinical significance. Methods: Seventy-eight surgically resected glioma specimens and 15 normal brain tissue samples from donors suffered traffic accidence were collected at the Department of Neurosurgery, the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University between January 2006 and January 2010, and the mRNAexpressions of MAGE-A1 and MAGE-A3 in collected tissues were detected with RT-PCR; their associations with the overall survival of patients were also analyzed.The promoter methylation status of the two genes was observed with methylation specific PCR, and the relationship between the gene expressions and promoter methylation status was analyzed. The expressions of MAGE-A1 and MAGE-A3 genes in U251 and U87 glioma cell lines were detected by RT-PCR before and after the treatment with DNA methyltransferase inhibitor 5-aza-CdR and/or histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA). Results:The positive expression rates of MAGE-A1 and MAGE-A3 genes in glioma tissues were 65.34% and 38.46%, respectively; however, the two genes were not detected in 15 cases of normal brain tissues.The 5-year overall survival of patients in MAGEA1 positive expression group was shorter than that of negative expression group (P<0.05). There was significant correlation between the mRNA expressions of two genes and their promoter methylation status (all P<0.01). There was no mRNA expressions of MAGEA1 and MAGE-A3 in U87 cells untreated with 5-Aza-CdR and TSA, but a small amount of MAGE-A1 mRNA and MAGE-A3 mRNA were detected in U251 cells. TSA alone could not activate the expression of MAGE-A1 and MAGE-A3 genes. 5-Aza-CdR alone or in combination with TSA could activate the expression of both genes, and the combined effect was better than that of single administration. Conclusion: There are different degrees of MAGE-A1 and-A3 expression in glioma tissues, and the expression of MAGE-A1 is a negative prognostic factor for glioma patients. DNApromoter methylation and histone acetylation are important mechanisms of the activation of MAGE-A1 and MAGE-A3 expression.

Objective To explore the latent class and influencing factors between different behavioral lifestyles in community patients with diabetes, to classify the population and reveal the behavioral lifestyle characteristics of different types of diabetes, and to provide a scientific basis for active health management of diabetes, the identification of high-risk groups and maximization of the effect of intervention measures. Methods From June to August 2022, a behavioral and lifestyle follow-up survey was conducted on 1 179 diabetes patients with electronic health records from 18 community health service centers in Pingshan District, Shenzhen. The latent class analysis (LCA) method was used to cluster the life and behavior style of the study subjects, and the disordered multi-classification logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of each class. Results The LCA results showed that there were three latent classes of community diabetes patients: ^“overweight and obese group^” (28.4%), ^“balanced diet group^” (30.8%), and ^“vegetarian but persistent exercise group^” (40.8%). Logistic regression analysis results showed that age, total cholesterol , LDL , fasting blood glucose, comorbidities, and hypertension history affected the latent classes of behavioral lifestyle in diabetic patients in the community (P<0.05). Conclusion The behavioral lifestyle of community diabetes patients has obvious classification characteristics and obvious differentiation in terms of eating behavior. Doctors and health managers can issue corresponding lifestyle medicine prescriptions and formulate corresponding active health management measures to prevent the occurrence of risk factors related to diabetes patients in advance and formulate personalized intervention measures.
