Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with obesity, type 2 diabetes,dyslipidemia, hypertension, and metabolic syndrome.It likely represents hepatic manifestation of metabolic syndrome. The prevalence of NAFLD has been estimated to be 20％-30％ in the general population. However, it is much higher in type 2 diabetic patients. Several epidemiological studies indicate that NAFLD is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease( CVD), which is independent of underlying cardiometabolic risk factors. This suggests that NAFLD may also be actively involved in the pathogenesis. The possible molecular mediators linking NAFLD and atherosclerosis(AS) include the release of pro-atherogenic factors by oxidative stress and inflammation as well as atherogenic dyslipidemia, abnormal adipose factors, and insulin resistance, finally aggravating progression of CVD. In this article, the relationship and possible mechanisms between NAFLD and AS are reviewed.

Cerebral vasospasm (CVS) is a serious complication of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is an endothelium-derived vasoconstrictor substance.A large number of clinical and basic studies have shown that cerebrospinal fluid and/or ET-1 levels in peripheral blood increases in patients with SAH and play an important role in the occurrence and development of CVS.This article reviews the research status of the role of ET-1 in the occurrence and development of CVS.

Objective To Analyze the effect of community-based integrative intervention on hypertension.Methods Among six residential areas,randomly chose four as the intervention group and the another two as the control group.Then a synthetical intervention was carried out to the intervention group,but no measures to the control.Results In the intervention group,the patients' systolic and diastolic pressure were eventually lower by 5.25 mm Hg than the datum line.The final result was obviously different from the datum line(P0.05).Conclusion The community-based integrated intervention plays a great role in the control of high blood pressure.

The paper introduced the recent development of optical tweezers array.The particle manipulation system could be set up based on several methods,such as acousto-optics deflectors(AOD),diffractive optical elements(DOE),spatial light modulators(SLM),interference technique,vertical cavity surface emitting laser(VCSEL),optical fibers and micro-lens arrays as well.The principle,specification and basic structure of each method were introduced and analyzed briefly.Taking the advantage of particle trapping,optical tweezers array was very useful for manipulation of micron size particles,such as cells.Combining with microfluidics and MEMs fabrication,optical tweezer array,the ultraminiature and portable particle sorting system,would be a good choice for space biological research.

Objective To explore the clinical significance of the precision evaluation of computed tomography angiography and color Doppler image formation technology to the condition of the vascular system in the donor site.Methods From January,2014 to December,2014,CTA and color Doppler were used to examine conditions of the first dorsal metatarsal artery's courser and the size of original caliber in 25 patients with thumb or finger defected.Also the distance between skin and the first dorsal metatarsal artery.The accurate positions and adjacent relations of vessels in donor site were precisely marked and then the vessel original caliber was measured.Results All the first dorsal metatarsal arteries of 25 cases can be appeared clearly in CTA and color Doppler.Blood vessels line and filling results were completely consistent in intraoperative findings.The difference of the vessel original average caliber was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05) (1.20 ± 0.25 mm,1.41 ± 0.15 mm and 1.3 ±0.2 mm in Doppler,CTA and operation,respectively) while the distance was not significant (P ＞ 0.05)(9.20 ±3.06 mm,10.32 ± 2.76 mm and 0.2 ± 2.6 mm in Doppler,CTA and operation,respectively) All the 25 transplanted toes were survived.Conclusion CTA combined color Doppler image formation technology in thumb or finger reconstruction can objectively reflect the real situation of the vessels in donor sites,and the structural characteristics and classification of anatomy for individualized,and has important clinical value in preoperative foot blood supply assessment.

Objective:To investigate the relation between the AT 1 receptor gene polymorphism and some biochemical indices of essential hypertension patients. Methods:Sixty-four patients of mild-moderate essential hypertension were not given any anti-hypertension drugs for 5 half lives,then used the PCR-RFLP to detect the AT 1 receptor gene type and measured the basic blood pressure at the same time. After that, fasting serum glucose , serum total cholesterol(TC) , triglyceride(TG) , high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C) , low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) , blood urea nitrogen(BUN) , creatinine(Cr) were measured in all subjects. Results:①The frequency of AC gene type in these essential hypertension patients and the C1166 allete of AT 1 receptor gene was 23.4% and 11.7%. ②There was a remarkable difference on TG between two gene groups. ③There were obvious difference on Cr and UA between two gene groups .④There were no obvious difference on Glu, TC ,HDL-C ,LDL-C ,BUN between AC and AA gene type. Conclusion:①The concentration of TG of AC gene type is lower than that of AA , there may be relativity between two gene type. ② A1166/C gene polymorphism may be associated with renal function. AA gene type may have poorer renal function. ③A1166/C gene polymorphism may be not relative with Glu,TCH ,HDL-C ,LDL-C ,BUN.

Objective To discuss the effect of melatonin on sleep and agitation in patients who had undergone tracheotomy in ICU.Methods Sixty-six tracheotomisd patients of ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ in ICU were included,age 18-60 years,weaning from mechanical ventilation not receiving continuous sedation.We conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized pilot study comparing melatonin with placebo in such patients.They were allocated into two groups by compute randomiza-tion-melatonin group(n =32)and control group(n = 34).We administered either oral melatonin (3 mg)or placebo at 20∶00 for 7 days.We collected pre-and post-dosage blood samples on days 1 and 3 to confirm drug delivery.The hours of sleep at day and night were assessed by the bedside nurse as the primary outcome.And the secondary outcome included comparison of the incidence of agitation, assessed by score on the Riker Sedation Agitation Scale,and requirement for sedatives or haloperidol to settle agitation.Results Pre-treatment melatonin levels in the two groups were similarly low.Post-treatment,melatonin levels increased significantly in the melatonin group compared with the placebo group (3 233±1 961 )pg/ml versus (3.8 ± 2.2 )pg/ml(P < 0.05 ).And subsequently the observed sleep time in the two groups was (1 1.9±2.0)hours for melatonin vs (7.8±1.6)hours for placebo, respectively (P < 0.01 ).The incidence of agitation was significantly lower in the melatonin group (0% vs 8.8%).Conclusion Melatonin is well absorbed,and a standard dose increases blood levels approximately 1000-fold.Furthermore it would help the tracheotomisd patients sleep and ease agitation in ICU.

Objective To investigate the serum levels of soluble human leukocyte antigen (sHLA)-G in patients with polymyositis (PM) or dermatomyositis (DM),and to analyze its association with clinical features and possible role in the pathogenesis of PM/DM.Methods Serum sHLA-G levels of 26 patients with PM,70 patients with DM and 35 matched healthy controls were measured by ELISA.The relationship between the sHLA-G levels and clinical features or seroimmunological data in the patients with PM/DM was analyzed.Results Serum levels of sHLA-G in PM/DM patients were significantly higher compared to healthy controls [(44±70) U/ml vs (4±5) U/ml,P＜0.01].There was statistically significant difference between DM patients and PM patients [(54±81) U/ml vs (27±41) U/ml,P=0.004].The incidence of dysphagia was significantly higher in sHLA-G elevated group than those in sHLA-G normal group (P=0.001).Additionally,Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that the serum sHLA-G levels were positively correlated with serum C3 (r=0.284,P=0.021),but negatively correlated with CD3+ T cells (r=-0.233,P=0.047) and CD4+ T cells (r=-0.287,P=0.015) in the peripheral blood in patients with PM/DM.Serum levels of sHLA-G in non-treated PM/DM patients were significantly higher compared to treated patients [(77±99) U/ml vs (34±52) U/ml,P=0.021].No relationship between serum sHLA-G levels and PM/DM disease activity,or different drug therapy was found.Conclusion Serum levels of sHLA-G are increased in PM/DM patients.The increased production of sHLA-G,paralleled with higher incidence of dysphagia and lower level of CD3+ T cells and CD4+ T cells,indicates that sHLA-G may play an important role in the pathogenesis of PM/DM.
