Objective To investigate the correlation between the prevalence of hyperuricemia (HUA) and metabolic syndrome (MS) in community residents in Xicheng District of Beijing. Methods A total of 834 permanent residents were se-lected for the survey. The values of height, body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), serum uric acid (UA), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG) and high density lipopro-tein-cholesterol (HDL-C) were recorded. Subjects were divided into HUA and non-HUA groups. Based on four components of MS, subjects were divided into (1) MS0 group (no any component of MS), (2) MS1 group (one component of MS), (3) MS2 group (two components of MS), (4) MS3 (three components of MS) and (5) MS4 group (four components of MS). The relation-ship of HUA and components of MS was analyzed. Results The total prevalence of hyperuricemia was 12.0%in 834 sub-jects. The prevalence of hyperuricemia were significantly higher in male subjects than those of female subjects[21.8%(83/381) vs 3.8%(17/453),χ2=63.765,P<0.01]. Values of BMI, SBP, DBP, TC and TG were significantly higher in HUA group than those of non-HUA group (P<0.01). There were no significant differences in levels of HDL-C and FPG between two groups. The prevalence of overweight/obesity, hypertension, hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia were significantly higher in HUA group than those of non-HUA group (P<0.01). The prevalence of HUA gradually increased with the accumulation of MS components (χ2=46.347, P<0.01). Conclusion Hyperuricemia and metabolic syndrome are closely related. We should pay more attention to monitor the serum uric acid levels.

To observe the effect of Mycobacterium tuberculosis 19 kDa lipoprotein (Mtb P19) upon the expression and distribution of Toll-like receptor-2 (TLR-2) on the surface of macrophages, Mtb P19 was prepared from the cultured M.tuberculosis H37 Ra strain , and phorbol myristatye acetate (PMA)-differentiated THP-1 cells were co-cultivated with Mtb P19 at concentration of 10 g/mL and at 37 ℃ temperature and a condition containing 5% CO_2.for 6 hours.. The distribution of TLP-2 on the surface of macrophages was investigated by immuno-cellular chemical method (ICC) while the effect of Mtb P19 upon the expression of TLR on the surface of macrophages was assayed by fluorescent antibody staining. In addition,the changes of TLR-2 expression before and after the effect of Mtb P19 were investigated by flow cytometry analysis and change of TLR-2 arrangement after stimulation with Mth P19 was determined by co-focal microscopy. It was found that the TLR-2 molecules were evenly distributed on the surface of macrophages as demonstrated by ICC. The mean fluorescent intensity increased significantly after stimulation with Mtb P19 for 6 hours in comparison with that of the control group, and the patchy surface with fluorescent staining positive zones could be detected on the surface of macrophages. Nevertheless , the distribution of TLR-2 molecule in the control group appeared to be randomly dynamic. It is evident that the Mth P19 not only can induce the surface expression of TLR-2 molecules, but also cause a functional aggregation of this receptor.

Colonoscopy has been accepted as the standard method for evaluation of colon and rectum,its success rate depends on the quality of bowel preparation. Aims:To evaluate the cleanliness and tolerance of fractionated dose versus single dose polyethylene glycol electrolyte solution( PEG-ES) bowel preparation regimens for colonoscopy. Methods:A total of 427 consecutive asymptomatic individuals undergoing colorectal cancer screening were enrolled and randomly assigned into 2 groups. Subjects in group A drank 1. 5 L PEG-ES on the eve and 4 hours before colonoscopy, respectively;subjects in group B received a single dose of 3 L PEG-ES 5 hours before colonoscopy. Score and degree of Boston bowel preparation scale(BBPS)and PEG-ES related adverse effects of the two groups were assessed and compared. Results:There were no significant differences in gender,age and cecal insertion rate between group A and group B(P ﹥ 0. 05). Score of BBPS was significantly higher in group A than in group B(P ﹤0. 01). Both regimens met the requirement of conventional colonoscopy,however,the cleanliness of colon was graded as excellent in more subjects of group A( P ﹤ 0. 01),and less subjects of group A complained PEG-ES related nausea(P ﹤0. 05). Logistic regression analysis revealed that the PEG-ES drinking pattern was associated with cleanliness of colon and occurrence of nausea( P ﹤ 0. 05). Conclusions:Fractionated dose PEG-ES regimen provides a better colonic cleansing quality and tolerance for bowel preparation of colonoscopy,which is superior to that of single dose regimen.

Objective To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) plus oxygenmedicine (OM) on the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax in the hippocampal CA 1 area in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (CI/RI) rats. Methods Thirty SD rats were randomized into sham-operation,model,EA,OM,EA+OM groups (n=6/group). CI/RI model was established by using modified Pulsinelli 4 vessel occlusion and reperfusion. EA (100 Hz,3.5 mA) was applied to "Baihui" (GV 20) and "Zusanli" (ST 36) 30 min,once daily for 4 days. Rats of OM and EA+OM groups were put into a box filled with oxygen and atomized herbal medicines containing Bingpian (Borneolum),Shexiang (Moschus),Huangjing (Rhizoma Polygonati),Shouwu (Radix Polygoni Multiflori),etc. for 30 min,once daily for 4 days. Bcl-2 and Bax expression of the hippocampal CA 1 area was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results Compared with sham group,the numbers of Bcl-2 immunoreaction (IR) and Bax IR positive cells,and the immunoactivity of Bcl-2 IR and Bax IR positive products in the hippocampal CA 1 area were increased significantly in model group (P0.05). Conclusion EA and OM and EA+OM can effectively regulate the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax in the hippocampal CA 1 area in CI/RI rats,and the effects of EA+OM are significantly superior to those of simple EA and simple OM,which may contribute to their effect in improving cerebral ischemia.
