Objective:To investigate the risk factors for anterior circulation and posterior circulation symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (sICAS).Methods:The clinical data of patients admitted to Hebei General Hospital for ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) and diagnosed with sICAS by digital subtraction angiography from May 2019 to May 2020 were retrospectively included. The patients were divided into anterior circulation group and posterior circulation group according to the stenosis sites, and the distribution of sICAS and its risk factors were analyzed.Results:A total of 134 patients with sICAS were enrolled, including 82 males (61.2%) and 52 females (38.8%). Their age was 60.28±11.46 years; 115 (85.8%) had ischemic stroke and 19 (14.2%) had TIA. There were 92 patients (68.7%) in the anterior circulation group and 42 (31.3%) in the posterior circulation group. Body mass index (BMI), systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels, as well as the proportion of patients with hypertension, diabetes, smoking and drinking in the posterior circulation group were significantly higher than those in the anterior circulation group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that higher BMI (odds ratio [ OR] 1.191, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.029-1.379; P=0.019), hypertension ( OR 4.073, 95% CI 1.135-14.616; P=0.031) and diabetes ( OR 2.783, 95% CI 1.149-6.738; P=0.023) were independently correlated with the posterior circulation sICAS. Conclusions:Compared with anterior circulation, high BMI, hypertension and diabetes are the independent risk factors for posterior circulation sICAS.

BACKGROUND:Apoptosis of islet cel s is closely related to the long-term hyperglycemia-and hyperlipemia-induced injuries. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of Shizidaiping formula on the apoptosis and insulin secretion in MIN6 cel s under the high glucose and lipid environment, and to explore the protective effect of Shizidaiping formula and the related apoptosis mechanism. METHODS:MIN6 cel s were divided into normal, model, melbine, low-, medium-and high-dose Shizidaiping formula groups. The cel activity was examined by cel counting kit-8, the insulin secretion was measured by ELISA, the rate of apoptosis was measured by Annexin V-FITC&PI and the expression levels of MEK1/2, ERK1/2 and p-ERK1/2 were examined by western blot assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Shizidaiping formula significantly improved MIN6 cel activity under high glucose and lipid condition (P<0.05), decreased early cel apoptosis, increased the level of insulin stimulated by low glucose in cel supernatant (P<0.05), and improved the expression levels of MEK1/2, ERK1/2 and p-ERK1/2 (P<0.05). These results suggest that Shizidaiping formula can protect islet cel s from hyperglycemia and hyperlipemia damage by improving the activity of MIN6 cel s, reducing the insulin secretion and inhibiting the apoptosis of pancreaticβcel s in MIN6 cel s.

White matter lesions (WMLs) are the extensive damage of periventricular and subcortical white matter caused by different etiology.Previous studies have shown that WMLs is associated with cognitive function, motor function, mood and urination function.Parkinson disease (PD) is a common chronic degenerative disease of the central nervous system.Recently, evidences showed that PD patients have a high susceptibility to WMLs which participates in the progression of motor and cognitive impairment.PD patients have higher risk of WMLs because of cardiovascular autonomic nerve dysfunction, long-term dopamine (DA) treatment and β-amyloid peptides (Aβ) deposition along vessels.Furthermore, recently, more and more evidences showed that WMLs could impact on the motor and cognitive symptoms of PD.WMLs had a significant influence on axial motor symptoms, and was related to executive function, attention, memory, visual-spatial ability and other cognitive impairment.Moreover, the severity of WMLs affects drug and surgical efficacy of patients with PD.Taking active measures to slacken the WMLs progression of PD will contribute to improve symptoms and curative effect.This article summarized the roles of WMLs in the occurrence and development of PD, in order to provide theoretical basis for prevention, diagnosis and treatment of PD.

Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) has become an effective treatment for acute large vessel occlusive ischemic stroke. Because there are many common etiologies and pathogenesis between cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) and large vessel disease, patients with large vessel occlusive ischemic stroke are often accompanied by imaging manifestations of CSVD. In recent years, with the wide application of EVT in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke, more and more studies have investigated the relationship between CSVD and the outcome of patients treated with EVT. This article reviews the relationship between various imaging phenotypes of CSVD and the outcome of acute ischemic stroke patients treated with EVT and its possible mechanism.

Objective To investigate the distribution of divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) in the cerebellum of APP/PS1 transgenic mouse. Methods Immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, and confocal laser scanning microscopy were used to analyze the relationship between DMTl and amyloid beta (Aβ) and their distribution in senile plaques. Western blotting was used to analyze DMT1 protein level in the APP/PS1 transgenic mouse cerebellum. Results DMTl and Aβ were mainly located in the amyloid plaques, which were predominately located in the molecular layer of the cerebellar cortex of the transgenic mouse. Only a few plaques could be seen in the Purkinje cell layer and granular layer. Confocal laser microscopy revealed the DMTl and Aβ were co-localized in senile plaques. Conclusion The abundant expression of DMTl protein suggests that DMTl and the divalent metal ions that it transports might be involved in the formation of Aβ senile plaques and other pathological processes in the cerebellum in Alzheimer' s disease.
