Objective:To evaluate the effect of tropisetron on pyroptosis in cardiomyocytes subjected to hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) and the relationship with α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7nAChR).Methods:Routinely cultured H9C2 cardiomyocytes were divided into 4 groups ( n=6 each) using a random number table method: control group (C group), H/R group, tropisetron plus H/R group (Tro+ H/R group), and α7nAchR antagonist MLA plus tropisetron plus H/R group (MLA+ Tro+ H/R group). H/R was produced by 12 h exposure of cells to hypoxia followed by 6 h reoxygenation in the other three groups except group C. Tropisetron at the final concentration of 10 nmol/L was added at 1 h before hypoxia in group Tro+ H/R.In group MLA+ Tro+ H/R, MLA was added at 2 h before hypoxia, and then 1 h later tropisetron at the final concentration of 10 nmol/L was given.At 6 h of reoxygenation, the pyroptosis rate of cardiomyocytes was determined by fluorescence immunostaining of caspase-1-AlexaFluor 488/DAPI, the concentrations of interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) and IL-18 in the supernatant were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, the activity of LDH in the supernatant was measured by 2, 4 dinitrophenylhydra-zine colorimetric method, and the expression of α7nAchR, NLRP3 and caspase-1 in cardiomyocytes was detected by Western blot. Results:Compared with group C, the pyroptosis rate, activity of LDH and concentrations of IL-1β and IL-18 in the supernatant were significantly increased, the expression of NLRP3 and caspase-1 was up-regulated, and the expression of α7nAchR was down-regulated in group H/R ( P<0.05). Compared with group H/R, the pyroptosis rate, activity of LDH and concentrations of IL-1β and IL-18 in the supernatant were significantly decreased, the expression of NLRP3 and caspase-1 was down-regulated, and the expression of α7nAchR was up-regulated in group Tro+ H/R ( P<0.05). Compared with group Tro+ H/R, the pyroptosis rate, activity of LDH and concentrations of IL-1β and IL-18 in the supernatant were significantly increased, the expression of NLRP3 and caspase-1 was up-regulated, and the expression of α7nAchR was down-regulated in group MLA+ Tro+ H/R ( P<0.05). Conclusion:α7nAchR is involved in the process of tropisetron inhibiting pyroptosis in cardiomyocytes subjected to H/R.

Objective To explore the differences between patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) accompanied with or without community-acquired pneumonia (CAP).Methods We collected 141 patients with COPD who met the admission criteria and had multiple acute exacerbation hospitalization history.Among them,40 patients with AECOPD accompanied with or without acute exacerbation of hospitalization of CAP (group A),38 patients with AECOPD accompanied with acute exacerbation of hospitalization of CAP (group B) and 63 patients with AECOPD but without acute exacerbation of hospitalization of CAP (group C).The demographic differences of age,sex and smoking status were analyzed and compared.The clinical symptoms and blood-related inflammatory indicators of pa tients in group A were analyzed and compared under the acute aggravation of CAP.The number of acute hospitalizations in 12 months before onset and 12 months after discharge were tracked.Results The age,smoking rate,COPD-GOLD classification,dyspnea index,anxiety and depression score in group A were higher than those in group B and C,while the percentage of forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1) in predicted value was lower than that in group B and C.The proportion of patients who cooperated or needed long-term home oxygen therapy and drug therapy was higher than that in group B and C,with statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05),but there was no statistical difference in each index between group B and C (P ＞ 0.05).The clinical symptoms of cough,expectoration,fever and other blood-related inflammatory indicators were aggravated in group A when accompanied with CAP.The number of acute hospitalizations in 12 months after discharge of AECOPD without CAP was significantly higher than that of COPD with CAP (P ＜ 0.05),while there was no significant difference in blood gas analysis indicators between the two cases (P ＞ 0.05).The number of hospitalizations in 12 months after discharge,percentage of neutrophils (N)and the level of interleukin (IL)-17 were independent clinical predictors of COPD with CAP.Conclusions Patients with AECOPD accompanied with or without CAP (group A) had poor lung function,worse illness conditions,greater support of home oxygen therapy and drug therapy and poor quality of life.Patients with AECOPD accompanied with CAP had more symptoms and higher levels of inflammatory indicators,but less risk of re-hospitalization in 12 months after cure than AECOPD patients without CAP.The number of hospitalization in 12 month after discharge,the percentage of neutrophils (N),and IL-17 level were helpful in screening the patients with CAP from the AECOPD patients.

Objective To investigate the current status and characteristics of the use of essential medicines in Chinese Medicare patients aged 65 and over.Methods Using the database from China Medical Insurance Research Association's research group to statistically analyze the total amount and the average cost of chemical and biological essential medicines for outpatients and emergency cases according to age groups in 2013 2015,and ranking and analysis were focused on the expenditure and the number of prescriptions of essential medicines for patients aged 65 and over.Additional analyses were made based on four regions (Eastern,Central,West and Northeast) and medical institutions of different levels.Results The data included nearly 20 million items of medications (4.43 million for patients ≥65 years,) and 307 essential medicines.In Western China,the portion of consumption of national essential medicines by patients aged 65 and over was 46.68％,which was higher than in any other regions.The portion of consumption by tertiary hospitals was the highest among all levels of medical institutions (＞ 40.00％).In all regions and medical institutions,cardiovascular drugs,hormones and endocrine drugs,and antimicrobials were the top categories for patients aged above 65,in terms of both expenditure and prescription numbers.There were some differences in the rankings of prescription numbers for essential medicines between patients aged 65 and over and those aged below 65.The numbers of prescriptions of the top 20 drugs varied little in different regions and medical institutions,and only a few drugs' rankings were different.Conclusions There are some differences in categories and rankings of commonly used essential medicines between younger and elder patients with medical insurance,and cardiovascular drugs are the most commonly used in patients aged 60 and over.These are in line with the spectrum and pathophysiological characteristics of diseases in the elderly.The types of basic drugs most commonly used by outpatients aged 65 and over have stayed stable across regions,and can provide clinical data for the selection of essential medicines with full cost reimbursement for elderly patients.
