Objective To study the relationship between ultrasonography of arteria dorsalis pedis and Hemorheology in patient with diabetic foot.Methods According to with or without frank anabrosis,51 patients were devided into two sub-groups:anabrosis group (23 patients) and no-anabrosis group (28 patients).The correlativity was analysed between the parameters of ultrasonography in arteria dorsalis pedis and hemorheological indices on patients with diabetic foot.Results When compared to patients without ulcers,vascular inner diameter (D),peak systolic velocity (PSV),resistent index (RI) and pulsatility index (PI) on patients with frank anabrosis were decreased significantly,but whole blood viscosity at high shear rate (BVH),whole blood viscosity at low shear rate (BVL),plasma viscosity (PV),fibrinogen (Fib) were increased.Multiple regression analyses indicated that the relationship between BVH,BVL and D was presence,partial regression coefficient (r) was -0.004 and -0.009 ; the relationship between PSV and BVH,PV was intimate,r was -0.957 and -25.655 ; the relationship between RI and BVH,PI and BVH,PV,Fib were relatively intimate,r was -0.009 , -0.141 , -2.666 , -0.383 ,respectively.Conclusions The changes of hemorheology can aggravate the abnormality of hemodynamics and the degree of vascular lesion in small vessels of lower limb,so it is one of influencing factor leading to lower limb arterial ischaemia and diabetic foot deterioration.

Objective: To explore myocardial protection effect of artificial subhibernation therapy on rabbits with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and its possible mechanism. Methods: A total of 24 rabbits were randomly and equally divided into sham operation group, AMI control group and AMI subhibernation group. Changes of their body temperature, heart rate and respiratory frequency were observed. Serum concentration of creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB) was measured by immunosuppression method, and plasma concentration of norepinephrine (NE) was measured by high performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical method. Percentage of myocardial infarct area in left ventricular area (I/LV) and apoptosis index (AI) were compared between two AMI groups. Results: Compared with control group 4 h after establishment of AMI model, there were significant decrease in body temperature [(37.333±0.427)℃ vs. (34.988±0.488)℃], I/LV [(19.281±1.687)% vs. (16.263±2.275)%] and AI [(36.636±1.671)% vs. (34.521±1.356)%], and concentration of CK-MB [(759.863±64.111)U/L vs. (560.225±65.837)U/L] and NE [(200.475±43.581) ng/ml vs. (143.813±43.383) ng/ml] in subhibernation group, P<0.05,or <0.01, but there were no significant changes in heart rate and respiratory frequency between two groups. Conclusion: Artificial subhibernation therapy possesses significant myocardial protection effect on rabbits with acute myocardial infarction through reducing stress response, inducing low temperature and inhibiting cell apoptosis etc.

Objective To investigate the effect of miR-15b and miR-16 on the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) protein in human embryonic lung fibroblast (HLF) cells under hyperoxia.Methods The expression level of miR-15b and miR-16 was up-regulated and down-regulated in HLF cells by transfection technology, respectively.The expression of VEGF protein in HLF cells was assessed by Western blot.Furthermore, under hyperoxia exposure in vitro, the expression of miR-15b, miR-16 and VEGF protein in HLF cells was analyzed.Results Up-regulation of miR-15b and miR-16 suppressed VEGF protein expression, while down-regulated miR-15b and miR-16 promoted VEGF protein expression.In addition, hyperoxia exposure induced up-regulation of miR-15b and miR-16, but down-regulation of VEGF protein in HLF cells.Conclusions Hyperoxia exposure may up-regulate the expression level of miR-15b and miR-16, but suppress VEGF protein expression.These may contribute to the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

ObjectiveTo assess the related risk factors of myocardial lesion in diabetes patients and the value of ultrasonic integrated backscatter in the assessment. MethodsThirty diabetes patients, which were divided into two groups based on their blood pressure, and twenty controls undergone conventional echocardiography and ultrasonic integrated backscatter analysis. Data reflecting the glycemic control (FA) were also collected and analyzed.ResultsThere was a significant difference in IB%, CVIB and THIB% between diabetes patients and controls. Greater THIB% was shown in diabetes patients with hypertension compared to that of diabetes patients without hypertension. THIB% correlated with FA significantly. Conclusions Hypertension and the poor glycemic control are two risk factors to myocardial lesion in diabetes patients. The ultrasonic integrated backscatter is useful in assessing the effects of the two factors to the myocardial lesion in diabetes patients.

Objective:To investigate the safety and effect of complete mesocolie excision (CME) combined with arterial infusion chemotherapy (AIC) and intra-peritoneal interstitial sustained-release chemotherapy (IPISRC). Methods:A total of 104 patients were classified under the experimental group and underwent CME combined with AIC and IPISRC. The other 98 patients were classified un-der the control group and only received radical surgery. Pre-and post-operative blood routine examinations, as well as liver and kidney function tests, were conducted for both groups. Post-operative adverse reactions and incidence of complications were recorded. Cancer and para-neoplastic tissues were sampled in experimental group. The post-surgery 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) concentration in the drainage fluid as well as those in the peripheral blood , were determined. Three-year follow-ups were conducted, during which the local recur-rence rate, liver metastasis, progression-free survival rate, and total survival rate were recorded. Results: No significant differences were found in the white blood cell count, hemoglobin count, liver and renal functions of the patients before and after the surgery, and rate of adverse reaction and complications between the two groups after surgery (P>0.05). In experimental group , the 5-FU concentra-tion was significantly higher in the cancer tissues than in the para-neoplastic tissues . The 5-FU concentration in experimental group was also significantly higher in the intra-peritoneal drainage liquid and reached its peak in the peripheral blood on day 3 post-surgery . Local recurrence and liver metastasis rates were significantly lower in experimental group than those in control group, whereas the pro-gression-free and three-year overall survival rates were significantly higher in experimental group than in control group (P<0.05). Con-clusion:The tharepy of pations of experimental goup is safe and effective. This method significantly improves the progression-free and three-year survival rates of the patients as well as significantly reduces the local recurrence and liver metastasis rates of colon cancer.

Objective To determine the feasibility and safety of transprostatic utricle seminal vesiculoscopy in the treatment of hemospermia. Methods Totally 11 patients with hemospermia, mean age of (46.6 ± 3.5) years, ranging from 38 to 68 years, for 3 months admitted from September 2012 to August 2015 were enrolled, Their main manifestations were hemospermia. Painful ejaculation was observed in 7 patients, and perineal and testicular pain occured in 4 patients. They all underwent transprostatic utricle seminal vesiculoscopy, and then were followed up for 3 to 6 months. Results Ten patients were operated successfully, but 1 patient failed. The operation revealed that the causes of hemospermia were seminal vesiculitis in 8 cases, seminal vesiculitis accompanied with seminal calculi in 2 cases, and ejaculatory duct cyst in 1 case. Operation time was (29.2 ± 3.2) min ( ranging from 25 to 37 min) , and hospital stay was 2 d ( from 2 to 4 d). Hemospermia disappeared in 10 patients within 1 month of surgery, and hemospermia recurrence was observed in 1 patient within 6 months. The patient was treated with transprostatic utricle Holmium laser incision, then hemospermia was dispeared,Two cases of postoperative epididymitis were cured after one week of antibiotic treatment. Conclusions Seminal vesiculoscopy is a safe and effective to treat hemaospermia.

OBJECTIVEDiscuss the trade-off between vegetative growth and reproductive growth.

METHODVegetative modules and reproductive modules by large sampling were separated and quantitative charecters of organs and pattern of reproductive allocation were analysed of reproductive allocation were analysed.

RESULTThe phenotype plasticity of quantitative charecters were significant. Reproductive biomass was increasing at different stages. The mass of reproductive investment increased significantly with increasing individual size, the opposite of reproductive allocation. There were all significant positive correlations between the seeds weight and height, total biomass, vegetative biomass, reproductive biomass, fruit numbers, fruit weight.

CONCLUSIONThe significance of phenotype plasticity is the cause of multiple elements. In the process of transferring from vegetative growth to reproductive growth, there was a trade-off between organs. Under individual growth and reproductive strategy, the variation of biomass was allocated coordinately.

AIM:To investigate the effect of hypoxia-preconditioned human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes(hUCMSC-Exos)on pulmonary vascular endothelial-mesenchymal transition(EndMT)in hypoxic pulmonary hypertension(HPH).METHODS:(1)Primary hUCMSCs were isolated and cultured by tissue adhesion method,and hUCMSC-Exos were extracted by ultrafiltration and identified.(2)Twenty-four SPF male SD rats were ran-domly divided into normoxia(N)group,hypoxia(H)group,hypoxia+normoxic hUCMSC-Exos group and hypoxia+hypoxia-preconditioned hUCMSC-Exos group,with 6 rats in each group.The rats in H group and intervention groups were placed in a cabin that simulated the hypoxic environment at an altitude of 5 000 m,and normoxic hUCMSC-Exos,hypoxia-precon-ditioned hUCMSC-Exos or equivalent volume of PBS were injected through the tail vein on the 3rd,5th,7th,10th and 14th days in hypoxia environment.After 21 d of modeling,the right ventricular systolic pressure(RVSP)and right ven-tricular hypertrophy index(RVHI)of the rats were detected,and the pathological changes of lung tissues were observed by HE staining.(3)After starvation for 12 h,human pulmonary arteriole endothelial cells(HPAECs)were randomly di-vided into normoxic control(N-Con)group,hypoxic model(H-Con)group,hypoxia+normoxic hUCMSC-Exos group and hypoxia+hypoxia-preconditioned hUCMSC-Exos group.The migration ability and tube formation ability of HPAECs were detected by Transwell assay and tube formation experiment.The expression of CD31 and α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)in HPAECs was detected by immunofluorescence double-staining.The protein levels of CD31,VE-cadherin,α-SMA and vimentin in pulmonary vessels and HPAECs were assessed by Western blot.RESULTS:(1)The HPH rat model was suc-cessfully established after 21 d of hypoxia,and EndMT occurred in pulmonary vessels.Compared with N group,the levels of RVSP,RVHI,percentage of vascular wall area(WA%)and percentage of vascular wall thickness(WT%)in H group were significantly increased(P＜0.01),pulmonary vascular wall thickening and the protein levels of CD31 and VE-cad-herin were significantly decreased(P＜0.01),while the protein levels of α-SMA and vimentin were significantly increased in pulmonary vessels(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Compared with H group,the RVSP,RVHI,WA%and WT%(P＜0.01)were significantly decreased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),and pulmonary vascular remodeling was attenuated after normoxic or hypoxia-preconditioned hUCMSC-Exos intervention.After hypoxia-preconditioned hUCMSC-Exos intervention,HPH pul-monary vascular remodeling and EndMT formation were significantly inhibited.(2)After 48 h of hypoxic treatment,the migration,tubule formation and EndMT of HPAECs were induced.Compared with H-Con group,cell migration and tube formation were significantly decreased after hypoxia-preconditioned hUCMSC-Exos intervention(P＜0.01).The protein levels of CD31 and VE-cadherin were increased,while the protein levels of α-SMA and vimentin were decreased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).CONCLUSION:Hypoxia-preconditioned hUCMSC-Exos attenuate the formation of HPH pulmonary vascu-lar remodeling by inhibiting pulmonary vascular EndMT.

Objective To study the curative effects of jejunal exclusion surgery for STZ-induced T2DM SD rats.Methods 60 SD rats were induced to be the T2DM SD rats by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocini.As a result,55 T2DM SD rats were successfully acquired which were randomly divided into 3 groups,20 rats in the jejunal exclusion group (A),20 rats in the sham operation group (B) and 15 rats in the control group (C).Jejunal exclusion surgery was performed in group A,jejunojejunostomy was performed in group B,and group C were fed normally.The body weight,fasting blood glucose,fasting plasma insuhn level and GLP-1 level were measured before operation and at the 1st,2rid,4th,8th and 16th week after operation.Results As compared with that before operation and that of the control group,the body weight in group A markedly declined at the 2nd,4th,8th and 16th week (352.14±9.00,342.84±8.90,336.64±10.26,330.34±9.12,P＜0.05).The fasting plasma glucose levels in group A markedly declined at the 2nd,4th,8th and 16th week (14.62±1.10,12.12±1.38,8.75± 1.06,7.55±1.00,P＜0.05).The fasting plasma insulin level in group A was maikedly increased at the 2nd,4th,8th and 16th week (14.62±3.10,16.12±3.38,17.75±4.06,17.55±3.10,P＜0.05).GLP-1 level in group A was markedly increased at the 1st,2nd,4th,8th and 16th week (11.02±0.85,14.42±1.18,16.02±1.59,17.62±1.02,18.12±0.71,P＜0.05).Conclusions The jejunal exclusion surgery is effective in controlling blood glucose,which is an ideal and lasting method.This surgery has also showed influence on body weight.
