Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) on monocyte HLA DR expression and immune function Methods Sixteen ASA Ⅱ Ⅳ patients [mean age (38 5?5 1)yr,mean body weight (42 9?10 2kg)] of both sexes (male 7,female 9) with rheumatic value disease undergoing mitral value replacement (11 patients) and mitral value and aortic value replacement (5 patients) with moderate hypothermic CPB were enrolled in this study Another ten patients undergoing lung lobectomy were used as control group Patients suffering from infection, immuno deficiency or receiving corticosteroid or immunoregulatory drugs were excluded Premedication included intramusallar midazolam 0 1mg?kg -1 and morphine 0 1mg?kg -1 Anesthesia was induced with intravenous midazolam 0 15mg?kg -1 , fentanyl 8?g/kg and vecuronium 0 1mg?kg -1 and maintained with isoflurane inhalation (0 8%～1 2%) and intermittent boluses of fentanyl and vecuronium The total dose of fentanyl was (18 3?3 2)?g/kg in CPB group and (9 6?1 3)?g/kg in control group CPB time was (74 2?22 5) min and aortic clamping time (57 5?19 2) min Blood samples were taken from CVP line before and 5 min after induction of anesthesia, before and after CPB and on the 1st, 3rd and 5th postoperative day for determination monocyte count and percentage of HLA DR + monocytes Results The number of monocytes decreased at the end of surgery but greatly increased on the postoperative days The percentage of HLA DR + monocytes also decreased at the end of surgery and decreased further on the 1st postoperative day but started increasing on the 3rd postoperative day In two patients who developed infection the percentage of HLA DR + monoeytes was lower than the average percentage of HLA DR + monocytes of the other 14 CPB patients In control group the percentage of HLA DR + monocytes also decreased significantly after operation but there was no significant change in the number of monocytes However there was a significant difference in monoeyte HLA DR expression between the two groups Conclusions The changes in monocyte HLA DR expression and monocyte count may be induced by impaired immune response after CPB and dynamic monitoring of monocyte HLA DR expression may help to predict complication of infection after CPB

Accumulating studies have proved that systemic inflammation is one of the important pathophysiologic mechanisms of heart failure. This article focuses on the sources of inflammation mediators and the causes of inflammation activation in heart failure including hemodynamic changes and oxidative stress, Toll-like receptors, microbial antigens and microorganisms, endotoxin hypothesis and neurohormonal activation. Furthermore, the effects of inflammation mediators such as cytokines and chemokines on heart failure are introduced. All lead to the conclusion that heart failure is a process with complex inflammation.

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of mortality of injury among residents in Gusu District, Suzhou City, Jiangsu Province from 2013 to 2023, so as to provide the evidence for developing targeted measures of injury prevention and control. Methods: Gender, age and underlying cause of deaths due to injury in Gusu District were collected through Death Reporting Information System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System and Jiangsu Death Reporting Information System from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2023. The crude mortality, Chinese-standardized mortality and world-standardized mortality of injury were analyzed, and the trend in mortality was analyzed using annual percent change (APC). Results: Totally 4 217 deaths due to injury were reported in Gusu District from 2013 to 2023. The crude, Chinese-standardized and world-standardized mortality rates were 51.58/105, 23.24/105 and 21.98/105, respectively, all showing a tendency towards a rise (APC=6.802%, 2.688% and 2.823%, all P<0.05). The crude mortality rate of injury was higher in women than in men (54.61/105 vs. 48.41/105, P<0.05). The five most common causes of injury included fall (32.99/105), traffic accidents (6.03/105), suicide (4.23/105), drowning (3.00/105) and asphyxia (2.16/105), accounting for 93.86% of the total number of deaths. The crude mortality rates of fall, suicide and asphyxia appeared a tendency towards a rise (APC=9.724%, 6.333% and 5.638%, all P<0.05). The crude mortality rates of injury among men, women and overall residents appeared a tendency towards a rise with age (all P<0.05). Fall was the primary cause of injury death among residents aged 65 years and above, and suicide was the primary cause of injury death among residents aged 15 to 44 years. Conclusions The crude mortality of injury appeared a tendency towards a rise in Gusu District from 2013 to 2023. The main causes of death were fall, traffic accidents, suicide, drowning and asphyxia, with the crude mortality of fall, suicide and asphyxia showing an upward trend.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the changes of patients with type 2 diabetes in different stages in glucagon (GC) and free fatty acid (FFA) in fasting, OGT and L-Arg experiments, and discusses the role of pancreatic alphabeta cells in diabetes pathogenesis by studying the relations among indexes such as glucagon (GC), free fatty acid (FFA) and blood glucose (BG), insulin, insulin homeostasis model (HOMA) and glucose metabolism hormone secretion curve, in order to provide theoretical basis for the treatment of diabetes.

METHODStudy objects were divided into the T2DM group (45 cases), the IGT group (28 cases) and the NGT group (30 cases) for an OGTT experiment and then an L-Arg experiment on the next day. Under the fasting state, their blood glucose (FBG), insulin (F), glucagon (FGC), free fatty acid (FFA) were detected to calculate HOMA-beta, insulin sensitivity index (ISI) and HOMA-IR of different groups. Meanwhile, efforts were made to calculate different time quantum detected in OGTT and L-Arg experiments and area under the curve AUC(BG), AUC(INS) and AUC(GC).

RESULTObvious overall differences were observed in FFA and FGC of the three groups. FGC of each group was negatively correlated with HOMA-beta and ISI. Among all of the 103 study objects, FGC was positively correlated with FBG and HOMA-IR and negatively correlated with HOMA-beta and ISI, with no correlation with FINS; FFA was positively correlated with FBG, HOMA-IR and negatively correlated with FINS, HOMA-beta, ISI. FGC and FFA were positively correlated in the T2DM group and the IGT group, but with no statistical correlation in the NGT group. The sequence of the three study objects was T2DM > IGR > NGT in AUC(GC) in the OGTT experiment and T2DM > IGR > NGT in in AUC(GC) in the L-Arg experiment, with the significant positive correlation between AUC(GC) and AUC(BG) and significant negative correlation with AUC(INS).

CONCLUSIONGlucagon and free fatty acid of T2DM and IGT patients increased, which was positively correlated with blood glucose and HOMA-IR and negatively correlated with INS, HOMA-beta and ISI. The increase in glucagons of T2DM and IGT patients indicated inappropriate secretion of pancreatic alphabeta cells among patients with type 2 diabetes.
