1.Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection and Thrombotic Diseases
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2008;16(6):464-468
Anti-phospholipid antibody and lupus anticoagulant appear in the blood of patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)infection,which result in the increased levels of von Willebrand factor and D-dimer,and decreased the levels of protein S,protein C,antithrombin and heparin cofactor,and thus rgsult in hypercoagulation status.In addition,the HIV infection itself and secondary opportunistic infections may also cause endothelial injury.Both hypercoag ulation status and endothelial injury may promote the occurrence of thrombotic diseases.

A high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric method ( HPLC-MS/MS ) was developed for the simultaneous determination of 31 kinds of triazine herbicides in farmland soils. Samples were extracted by accelerated solvent extraction ( ASE ) and purified by Oasis MCX solid phase extraction ( SPE) cartridges, and then analyzed by HPLC-MS/MS in multiple reaction monitoring ( MRM) mode with positive electrospray ionization. The analytical column was Phenomenex Luna C18 ( 150 mm í 2. 0 mm í3 μm) and the mobile phases were acetonitrile and water containing 0. 1% (V/V) formic acid. The limits of detection (S/N≥3) were 0. 008-0. 440 μg/L. All of the triazine herbicides had good linear responses with r≥0 . 996 and the average recoveries in the spiked levels of 0 . 40-40 . 0 μg/kg ranged from 76 . 9%-102 . 0%with the RSDs of 3 . 4%-10 . 3%. The HPLC-MS/MS method had been applied for the detection of the triazine herbicide residues in farmland soils from Shenyang region and the results showed that atrazine, simazine, prometryne and atrazine-desethyl were the main triazine herbicides in the region.

Objective To establish a model of pancreatic cancer induced by 7,12-dimethylbenzathracene (DMBA) in SD rats, and to detect the expression levels of RAD51 and Myc-associated factor X (MAX) and their effect on carcinogenesis of rat pancreas. Methods Ninety SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: a model group, an intervention group, and a control group. DMBA was directly implanted into the parenchyma of rat pancreas (the model group and the intervention group). Rats in the intervention group were treated with 1 mL trichostatin A (TSA) saline solution (1 μg/mL) via ip weekly. Rats within 3~5 months in the model group and the intervention group were executed and observed by macrograph and under microscope. Meanwhile, the rats in the control group were executed at 5th month. The EnVision~(TM) immunohistochemistry to assay the expression levels of RAD51 and MAX was used in conventional paraffin-embedded sections from the above pancreatic specimens.Results The incidence of pancreatic cancer in the model group within 3-5 months was 48.7% (18/37), including 17 ductal adenocarcinomas and 1 fibrosarcoma. The incidence of pancreatic cancer in the intervention group within 3-5 months was 33.3%(12/36), including 11 ductal adenocarcinomas and 1 fibrosarcoma. The maximal diameter of mass in the model group was significantly higher than that in the intervention group (P<0.05). No pathological changes were found in pancreas of the control group and other extra-pancreatic main organs of the model group and the intervention group (such as the liver, biliary tract, gastrointestine tract, kidney, and lung). The positive rate of RAD51 was significantly higher in ductal adenocarcinoma in the model group, the intervention group, and the model group +the intervention group than those in corresponding groups of non-cancerous pancreatic tissues (P<0.01), but the positive rate of MAX expression was opposite to RAD51 expression(P<0.01). The positive tissues of RAD51 expression and/or negative tissues of MAX expression in non-cancerous tissues showed atypical-hyperplasia of ductal epitheli. Pacncreas of the control group showed the negative expression of RAD51 and positive expression of MAX. Two cases of fibrosarcoma showed the negative expression of RAD51 and MAX.Conclusion DMBA directly implanted into the parenchyma of pancreas can obtain an ideal pancreatic cancer model with high incidence in a short time. The TSA might have an inhibitive effect on carcinogenesis and growth of rat pancreas. The over-expression of RAD51 and/or lose-expression might have important effect on carcinogenesis induced DMBA in rat pancreas.

Objective To study the expressive levels of EZH2 and PTEN in pancreatic cancer and non-cancerous tissue,and the effects on carcinogenesis of rat pancreas.Methods dimethylbenzathracene(DMBA) was directly implanted into the parenchyma of rat pancreas(group A,group B).The rats of group B were treated with 1 mL trichostatin A(TSA) solution(1?g/mL) intravenously per weer 1 week after the model were set up.The rats of group A,B were killed within 3-5 months and the rats in the control(C group) were executed at 5 months to observe the develope of pancreatic cancer by macrograph and microscopy,The EnVisionTM immunohistochemistry was used to assay the expression of EZH2 and PTEN in above pancreatic specimens.Results(1) The incidence of pancreatic cancer within 3-5 months in group A was 48.7%(18/37),including 17 cases of ductal adenocarcinoma and 1 case of fibrosarcoma.The incidence of pancreatic cancer in group B was 33.3%(12/36),including 11 cases of ductal adenocarcinoma and 1 cases of fibrosarcoma.The mean maximal diameter of mass was significantly higher in group A than that in group B(P 0.05).The non-cancerous pancreatic tissues with positive expression of EZH2 and/or negative expression of PTEN showed mild to severe atypical hyperplasia of ductal epithelium.An inconsistency was found between the expression of EZH2 and PTEN in ductal adenocarcinoma(P =0.045).Pancreas of group C showed negative expression of EZH2 and positive expression of PTEN.Two cases of fibrosarcoma showed negative expression of EZH2 and PTEN.Conclusions By use of higher dose of DMBA directly implanted into the parenchyma of pancreas,high incidence of pancreatic cancer can be obtained.TSA could have an inhibitive effect on carcinogenesis and growth of pancratic cancer.The activation of EZH2 gene and inactivation of PTEN gene might have Key effects on pancreas carcinogenesis induced by DMBA in rat.

Objective To observe the relationship between early lactate clearance and APACHEⅡ in critically ill patients. Methods In 121 critically ill patients,APACHE Ⅱ and lactate clearance rate were recorded. According to APACHE Ⅱ score,all patients were divided into≤10 score group, (11 ~20) score group,(21 ~30) score group and > 30 score group, then compared the level of the early lactate clearance rate. The early lactate clearance rate were also compared between survival group and death group. Then the relationship between early lactate clearance and APACHE Ⅱ were analyzed. Results In( 11 ~20) score group,the early lactate clearance rate was lower than those in ≤ 10 score group, but the difference was not significant ( P > 0. 05 ). The early lactate clearance rate in (21 ~ 30) score group ( 18. 35 ± 10. 01 ) % was lower than those in ( 11 ~ 20) score group (27.35 ± 10. 22) % ( t = 3.481, P < 0. 01 ),in > 30 score group( 11.98 ± 9. 93 )% those was lower compared with (21 ~30) score group( t = 2. 968, P < 0. 01 ). In death group, APACHE Ⅱ score(28. 1 ± 6. 7 ) was higher than that in survival group ( 18. 8 ± 8. 4) ( t = 3. 030, P <0. 01 ), the early lactate clearance rate was lower ( t = 3. 619, P < 0. 01 ). APACHE Ⅱ score correlated well with the mean level of the early lactate clearance rate ( r = - 0. 641, P < 0. 01 ). Conclusion The lactate clearance rate was the good fator on evaluation of condition and prognosis in the critically ill patients.

Objective To compare the efficacy of the reforming endoscopic minimally invasive releasing(REMIR) with open procedure for treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome.Methods Senventy patients with unilateral carpal tunnel syndrome were randomly divided into REMIR group and open procedure group,with 35 cases in each group.Kelly's standard,two-point discrimination,operation time and complication occurrence were compared between the two groups.Results All patients were followed-up for 12 months.There was no significant difference in the therapeutic results and in the improvement of two-point discrimination between the two groups (P > 0.05 ).The operation time of REMIR group was significantly shorter than the open procedure group ([ 10.03 ± 1.84] min vs [37.63 ±7.18]min,t =22.210,P <0.001 ).And there was no cases with scar tenderness in REMIR group while there was 7 cases in open procedure group.Conclusion Compared with the open procedure,the REMIR method has the same clinical efficacy while with the advantages of causing smaller skin scar and being less time consuming.
