Objective To investigate if the relative ratio between C1q and C3a, C5a had a relationship with the extent of coronary artery disease ( CAD) which had never been evaluated in humans.Methods Fifty-three patients scheduled for elective percutaneous coronary intervention ( PCI ) from February, 2016 to April, 2016 at Fuwai hospital were prospectively enrolled.According to the clinical and angiographic characters patients were divided into two groups:acute coronary syndrome ( ACS) group ( n=24), and control group (n=29, 19 patients with stable angina and 10 patients without CAD confirmed by angiography).In all individuals, fasting venous blood was collected by EDTA tubes after admission and strictly before PCI.The plasma level of C1q was measured by immune turbidimetric analysis, C3a and C5a were measured by ELISA tests.Differences between groups were assessed using t test, Mann-Whitney Utests, chi-squared test or Fisher exact test depending on the type of data respectively.Multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to evaluate the adjusted effect of C1q, C3a, C5a, C1q/C3a and C1q/C5a on ACS.Results Compared with control group, ACS group has an elevated circulation level of C3a (4 531.14 μg/L vs.4 179.95 μg/L, t=1.381,P=0.173) and C5a (6.44 μg/L vs.4.42 μg/L, t=0.133, P=0.108) but a decreased level of C1q (176.98 μg/ml vs.200.60 μg/ml, t=-2.022, P=0.048).The relative ratio of C1q/C3a was significantly decreased in ACS patients(4.05 ×10 -2 vs.4.97 × 10 -2 , t=-2.484, P=0.016).According to the multiple logistic regression analysis, lower relative ratio of C1q/C3a level proved to be independently associated with ACS ( OR=0.937, P=0.047, 95% CI:0.879-0.998).Conclusions The decreased relative ratio of C1q/C3a level proved to be independently associated with ACS.C1q/C3a ratio could be used as an important index reflecting the complement system homeostasis status which might have potential clinical value in evaluating the prognosis of patients with CAD.

Objective To compare the RIFLE and AKIN diagnosis criteria for acute kidney injury ( AKI) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Methods Patients undergoing cardiac surgery from January 2004 to June 2007 were retrospectively evaluated. RIFLE and AKIN criteria were employed for the diagnosis and staging of AKI which occurred 7 d after cardiac surgery. The diagnosis sensitivity and precision for prediction of hospital mortality were compared between these two criteria. Results One thousand and fifty-six patients were included in this study. There was no significant difference between the prevalence of AKI after cardiac surgery diagnosed by RIFLE criteria and that diagnosed by AKIN criteria (29.55% vs 31.06%, P>0.05). There was no significant difference between the total hospital mortality and the hospital mortality of each stage of AKI diagnosed by RIFLE criteria and those diagnosed by AKIN criteria ( P > 0. 05). Logistic regression analysis suggested that the relative risk of hospital mortality for AKI was similar between patients diagnosed by AKIN criteria and those diagnosed by RIFLE criteria. The area under the ROC curve for hospital mortality was 0. 856 for RIFLE and 0.865 for AKIN in all patients (P<0.001). Conclusion Compared to RIFLE criteria, AKIN criteria do not improve the sensitivity of diagnosis and predictive ability of hospital mortality of AKI after cardiac surgery.

ObjectiveTo observe the dynamics of antibodies and protection against Schistosoma japonicum infections in buffaloes after immunized with recombinant 26 kDa glutathione S transferase (reSjc26GST). Methods Buffaloes in 2 villages endemic for schistosomiasis japonica were selected as test and control groups, respectively.In test group initially 96 buffaloes were vaccinated with reSjc26GST, and 90 buffaloes in the control group did not experience vaccination. The indicators included levels of antibodies to reSjc26GST in buffaloes before and after infection with S japonicum and changes in infection rate. Results Specific antibodies, which showed a trend of trapezoid increase, were induced in buffaloes after immunized with reSjc26GST. Twenty months after immunization, the infection rate of the test group was decreased by 62 2% when compared with that before vaccination,and by 67 7% when compared with that of the control in the corresponding period.Conclusion Specific antibodies and a certain extent of protection were induced in buffaloes after immunized with reSjc26GST, which played an significant role in ameliorating morbidity.

Objective To investigate the incidence, risk factors and outcome of acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiac surgeries. Methods Clinical data of 1056 patients undergoing open heart surgery in Renji Hospital from January 2004 to June 2007 were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to evaluate possible pre-,intra-, and post-operative parameters associated with AKI according to AKI Network (AKIN). Results Of the 1056 patients, 328 (31.06%) developed AKI. In-hospital mortality was 4.07% in all discharges while 11.59% in AKI patients (P<0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that increased age (OR=1.40), pre-operative hyperurieemia (OR=1.97), pre-operative left ventricular insufficiency (OR=2.53), combined surgery (OR=2.79), prolonged operation time (OR=1.43), post-operative circulation volume insufficiency (OR=11.08) were risk factors of AKI. Conclusions AKI is a common complication and associated with increased mortality following cardiac surgery. Increased age, pre-operative hyperuricemia, pre-operative left ventricular insufficiency, combined surgery, prolonged operation time, post-operative circulation volume insufficiency are useful in stratifying risk factors for the development of AKI.

Objective: To compare the dosimetric differences in forward intensity-modulated radiotherapy using field-in-field (FIF-F-IMRT) and inverse intensity-modulated radiotherapy (I-IMRT) for the left-sided breast cancer. Methods: A total of 18 patients with left-sided breast cancer undergoing breast-conserving surgery in Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital from January to July 2015 were enrolled. For each patient, two treatment plans were designed. The plans were compared by means of target dose distribution and dose for organ at risk. Results: The two methods met the requirements of the prescribed doses. There were no differences for maximal dose (D_max), mean dose (D_mean), and 100%, 105%, 110% prescription dose percent volume (V₁₀₀, V₁₀₅, V₁₁₀) of the target (all P > 0.05). The percentage volume of heart receiving 5 Gy (V₅), 20 Gy (V₂₀), 30 Gy (V₃₀), D_mean of heart of FIF-F-IMRT [(11±4)%, (7±4)%, (8±3)%, (15±3) Gy] were lower than those of I-IMRT [(42±8)%, (14±10)%, (14±4)%, (18±7) Gy] (t values were 29.457, 5.542, 5.064, 4.165, all P = 0.000). V₅ of left-sided lung of FIF-F-IMRT [(26±6)%] was lower than that of I-IMRT [(47±12)%] (t = 6.708, P = 0.000), but there was no significant difference between the two groups in V₂₀, V₃₀, V₄₀, D_mean of left-sided lung (all P≥0.05). V₅ of right-sided lung and right-sided breast, D_mean of right-sided lung of FIF-F-IMRT [(7±4)%, (26±5)%, (60±19) Gy] were lower than those of I-IMRT [(31±9)%, (48±11)%, (489±67) Gy] (t values were 12.304, 6.708, 42.489, all P = 0.000). The number of the monitor units and spending time of FIF-F-IMRT were lower than those of I-IMRT (t values were 12.214 and 29.899, both P = 0.000). Conclusion FIF-F-IMRT has a good dose distribution in the target volume, and could reduce the dose for organ at risk, especially reduce the unnecessary low dose irradiation, and consume less planning time and equipment consumption.
