Background Hypertension and dyslipidemia are the 2 important risk factors of cardiovascular affecting the prognosis of cardiovascular disease. However paucity data of characteristics of lipid metabolism and prognosis of cardiovascular diseases in high-risk groups with hypertension are available. Objective To analyze the lipid metabolism level and the relevant risk factors of inpatients with essential hypertension (EH) from 2000 to 2007. Methods Retrospective study was performed based on the clinical characteristic and the relationship between different kinds of hyperlipidemia and target organ damages in inpatient with EH. Results For the level of triglyceride (TG) and the prevalence of hypertriglyceridemia,males(n=3056) were significantly higher than females(n=1932)(P

Objective: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represent a promising population for supporting new clinical concepts in cellular therapy, and they can be reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) by defined factors. Methods: This method opened up a new era of stem cell research, because the transplantation rejection of iPSCs is the bottleneck of its clinical application, so seeking alternative compounds and animal origin diagnostic reagents to achieve full chemical iPSCs is to be done to solve this problem. Results: The application of these iPSCs has largely been associated with well known undesirable effects such as the development of cancers in certain experimental models. This has called for the search and use of reprogramming factors that are safe. Chinese materia medica (CMM) with tonifying kidney function (TKF) offers an alternative source. On the other hand, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUMSCs) are known to be a "young" source of MSCs, hUMSCs transplantation is an attractive approach for acute kidney injury repair. Therefore, In this study, we investigated whether the treatment of CMM with TKF on hUMSCs could enhance the repair in mice model of acute kidney injury after transplantation. Conclusion: Our results showed that the treatment of hUMSCs with kidney tonifying CMM increased their multipotency, improved the renal function of mice and enhanced subsequent homing to the injured kidney in an acute kidney injury mice model.

AIM: To examine the effect of protamine sulfate, lipopolysaccharide(LPS),tumor necrosis factor(TNF), epidermal growth factor(EGF) and " Bushen Huoxue Xiezhuo" (BHX) decoction on the proliferation of extracorporeal cultured rat glomerular epithelial cells (GEC). METHODS: Their action on the proliferation of rat GEC were investigated using the -TdR incorporation. Meanwhile, the serum of rats treated with BHX decoction was extracted pharmacologically and its effects on the growth of GEC were also studied. RESULTS: LPS, protamine sulfate, TNF-? and EGF could significantly inhibit the -TdR incorporation of GEC in a dose- and time-dependent manner. However, this inhibition could be efficiently reversed by the serum containing BHX decoction. CONCLUSION: GEC is one of the main target cells on which BHX decoction act, and the protection on GEC might be one of the mechanisms underlying the role of BHX decoction in preventing the progression of nephrosis.

OBJECTIVE: To prepare rifampicin suppositories and to determine its dissolution in vitro. METHODS: Rifampicin suppositories were prepared with gelatin and glycerine as base material, the dissolution of rifampicin suppositories was determined by UV spectrophotometry and which were compared with rifampicin capsules sold in the market. RESULTS: The linear range of rifampicin was 10.0～60.0?g?mL-1(r=0.9 999), and the average recovery was 99.87%(RSD=0.42%, n=6). The dissolutions of rifampicin suppositories and rifampicin capsules in vitro at 45min were(89.9?0.97)% and(79.8?1.14)%, respectively. CONCLUSION: Rifampicin suppositories were simple in preparative method, well-formed, low in cost, and with high dissolution in vitro.

Objective To evaluate donor remnant liver regeneration and influencing factors at different stages after right lobe adult living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) using multi-slice spiral computed tomography (MSCT).Methods 68 living donors were included in this study,We did CT volumetric measurement of the liver by using IQQA-Liver workstation.Liver regenerative ratio (LRR) at different stages of donors after LDLT were calculated and compared,correlation coefficient and stepwise regression analysis were calculated.Results The difference between LRRs at different stages after LDLT were significant (F =3.323,P =0.009),there were significant difference between LRR of 7-day and 1-month,3-month (respectively t =-2.065,-2.214,all P ＜ 0.05).The inclusion of middle hepatic vein and donor gender had no influence on LRR (respectively t =0.600,-0.622,1.464,0.926,-1.228,0.624,-0.688,0.131,all P ＞ 0.05).There were negative correlation between the remnant liver volume and LRRs (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions MSCT is a valid modality to evaluate remnant liver regeneration after LDLT.Most evident remnant liver regeneration occurs in early stage after adult LDLT.

Objective To evaluate the impact of donor age on graft short-term outcome after right lobe adult living donor liver transplantation (LDLT).Method Thirty living recipients were divided into 2 groups according to donor age:older donor group (O group,donor age ＞50,n =5) and younger donor group (Y group,donor age ＜30,n =25).Alanine transarninase (ALT),aspartate transaminase (AST),total bilirubin (TB),prothrombin time (PT) on the postoperative day 1 to 5 and graft liver regenerative ratio (LRR) on the postoperative month 0.5,1,3,and 6 between 2 groups were determined and compared.Result TB on postoperative day 1,2,3,4 and 5 was significantly higher in O group than in Y group there were significant differences between two groups (P＜0.01).There was no significant difference of other liver function parameters 2 groups (P ＞ 0.05).There was no significant difference in LRRs on the postoperative month 0.5,1,3 and 6 months postoperatively between 2 groups after LDLT (P＞0.05).Conclusion Although allografts from older donors in LDLT have prolonged jaundice than those of their younger counterparts,after strictly preoperative evaluation,donor age has little effect on short-term outcomes of graft after LDLT.

Objective To investigate the expression of B-cell activating factor ( BAFF ) and its specific receptor BAFF-R in patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin′s lymphoma ( B-NHL) and to analyze the cor-relations between BAFF and the development of B-NHL.Methods RTQ-PCR and Western blot assay were used to measure the expression of BAFF and its specific receptor BAFF-R in patients with B-NHL.Fluores-cence immunocytochemical staining was used to determine the localization of BAFF and BAFF-R in Raji cells, a B-NHL cell line.The expression of BAFF in tumor tissues from patients with B-NHL of different his-tologic subtypes was measured by immunohistochemistry.WST proliferation and TUNEL assays were used to evaluate the effects of BAFF and BAFF-R on the proliferation, survival rate and apoptosis of Raji cells.Lin-ear correlations between the concentrations of lactate dehydrogenase ( LDH) and the expression of BAFF and BAFF at mRNA and protein levels in patients with B-NHL were analyzed.Results BAFF and its specific receptor BAFF-R were expressed in Raji cells and played an important role in the survival and proliferation of B-NHL cell line.The expression of BAFF in tumor cells from patients with B-NHL varied with the different histologic subtypes of B-NHL.Patients with small B-cell malignant lymphoma, large B-cell lymphoma ( LBCL) , mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma ( MALT lymphoma) and follicular lymphoma showed higher levels of BAFF, while those with mantle cell lymphoma showed lower levels of BAFF.Compared with the healthy subjects, patients with B-NHL showed significantly increased expression of BAFF at mRNA and protein levels.The levels of LDH were closely related to the expression of BAFF at mRNA and protein lev-els.Conclusion BAFF and its specific receptor BAFF-R might play an important role in the growth and survival of malignant B cells.

BACKGROUND:Monofocal and multifocal Toric intraocular lens that have been widely used in clinic exhibit xcelent biological and optical characteristics and have good safety and stability after implantation. OBJECTIVE:To compare the outcomes and rotation stability in patients with cataract and astigmatism after implantation of monofocal and multifocal intraocular lens. METHODS:A total of 210 patients with cataract and astigmatism who received phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation were included in this study. Of them, 105 patients were assigned to monofocal intraocular lens implantation and the other 105 patients to multifocal intraocular lens implantation. Uncorrected visual acuity, best corrected visual acuity, residual astigmatism were reexamined at 1, 3 weeks and 1 month after surgery. The rotation of Toric intraocular lens was determined. The incidence of complications and spectacles- independent rate were recorded. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Visual acuity and residual astigmatism in each group were significantly improved after 1 week of intraocular lens implantation (P < 0.05); furthermore, these two indicators became better over time. Improvement of visual acuity and residual astigmatism in multifocal intraocular lens group was more obvious than that in monofocal intraocular lens group. Postoperative intraocular lens rotation at < 5° occurred in both groups. The intraocular lens rotation degree in multifocal intraocular lens group was higher than that in monofocal intraocular lens group at different time points (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in incidence of complications and spectacles-independent rates between two groups at 1 month after surgery. These results demonstrate that multifocal Toric intraocular lens provides better visual acuity and residual astigmatism improvement, while monofocal Toric intraocular lens provides better rotation stability.
