Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiopulmonary bypass(CRB) in children with non cyanotic congenital heart disease. Methods A total of 150 children who underwent cardiopulmonary bypass operation from 2012 May to 2014 May were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into two groups:AKI group (n=29) and non AKI group (n=121). Clinical data were collected and compared between two groups, including gender, age and baseline serum creatinine level. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the risk factors for AKI after operation. Results There was no death in the 150 cases. Comparison between groups, there were significant differences in age, history of heart failure and (or)pneumonia, baseline serum creatinine level, baseline uric acid, body mass, CPB) time, aortic clamping time, mechanical ventilation time, postoperative transfusion and hypotension. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age (≤1 years old), the history of pneumonia and (or) heart failure, CPB time (＞40 min), aortic clamping time (＞30 min) were the independent risk factors for AKI after operation. Conclusion It is important to choose the best age for surgery in children, actively prevent preoperative complications and shorten the CPB and aorta blocking time for preventing the occurrence of AKI.

Aim To investigate the effect of ligustrazine on pulmonary arterial pressure,thromboxane A2(TXA2) and prostacyclin(PGI2) in chronic hypoxic hypercapnic rats.Methods Thirty rats were randomly divided into control group(A), hypoxic hypercapnic group(B) and hypoxic hypercapnia+ ligustrazine (lig) group (C) .Results The mPAP in group B was significantly higher than that in group A(P0.05) ; The specific value of WA/TA(vessel wall area/total area) and SMC (the density of medial smooth muscle cells) were significantly higher in group B than that in group A(P0.05).Conclusion Ligustrazine can inhibit pulmonary hypertension and structural remodeling of pulmonary artery in chronic hypoxic hypercapnic rats by inhibiting synthesis of TXA2.

Objective To investigate the association between rs7744 polymorphism in the 3'?untranslated region(3'?UTR)of myeloid differen?tiation factor 88(MyD88)gene and the risk and severity of coronary artery disease(CAD)in a North Chinese Han population. Methods The CAD and control groups consisted of 540 patients and 270 subjects,respectively. The genotypes of rs7744 were detected by polymerase chain reac?tion?restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR?RFLP),and clinical data were collected. Results The distributions of MyD88 rs7744 were in HWE(P>0.1). In the<50?year?old age group,a lower risk of CAD was observed for subjects carrying the variant AG genotype in comparison to subjects carrying the wild AA genotype(OR=0.38,95%CI:0.17-0.93,P=0.029). The MyD88 rs7744 polymorphism was also related to the modified Gensini score(P=0.011),which was lower in subjects carrying the variant GG genotype than the wild AA genotype(5.23±3.85 vs 7.49± 4.96). Conclusion Our results revealed that MyD88 rs7744 polymorphism in the 3'?UTR is correlated with the risk and severity of CAD.

The N-terminal of porcine parvovirus (PPV) viral protein 2 (VP2) links a glycine-rich domain which is a cleavage site of PPV VP3.In order to confirm that the glycine-rich domain was essential for the self-assembling of virus-like particles (VLPs).The VP2 gene with glycine-rich domain deleted and the complete VP2 gene were inserted to eukaryotic expression vector pCI-neo and were named pCI-AVP2 and pCI-VP2. Then, pCI-delta VP2, pCI-VP2 and pCI-neo were transferred into Vero Cells by liposome and the VLPs was detected by SDS-PAGE, Western blotting, indirect immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy. Furthermore, 56 female Kunming mice were divided into 5 groups and injected intramuscularly with pCI-delta VP2, pCI-VP2 and pCI-neo as DNA vaccine, PPV inactivated vaccine and normal saline separately. The peripheral blood of the mice was collected to analyze the subgroups of the peripheral blood mononuclear cell by flow cytometry, to detect the antibody and lymphocyte proliferation by indirect-ELISA and MTT assay separately. The results show that the VLPs were observed both in the pCI-delta VP2 and pCI-VP2 transferred Vero Cells. The two VLPs could agglutinate guinea pig erythrocytes. The results also show that both the pCI-delta VP2 and pCI-VP2 vaccine induced special cellular and humoral immunity effectively. Those results revealed that the glycine-rich domain is not essential for the VPL's self-assembling. This study provides a new theoretical evidence for the relationship between the gene structure and protein function of VP2.

Objective To investigate the effect of IGF1R β subunit mutants sb-IGF1R and ma-IGF1R on the biological behavior of osteosarcoma 143B cells. Methods We designed and constructed sb-IGF1R and ma-IGF1R fragments. They were cloned into adenovirus AdEasy shuttle plasmid, to obtain Ad-sbIGF1R and Ad-maIGF1R. We observed the proliferation, migration and apoptosis of the osteosarcoma cells transfected with Ad-sbIGF1R, Ad-maIGF1R and Ad-IGF1R. The Ad-sbIGF1R, Ad-maIGF1R and Ad-GFP nude mouse models were constructed to evaluate the tumor growth in vitro. Results By plasmid PCR, IGF-1R β subunit mutant was overexpressed in osteosarcoma cells. Ad-sbIGF1R and Ad-maIGF1R significantly inhibited the proliferation and migration of osteosarcoma cells, and promoted cell apoptosis, and inhibited tumor growth in subcutaneous tumor-bearing nude mouse models. Conclusion IGF1R β subunit mutants inhibit the proliferation and migration of osteosarcoma cells and induce cell apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of urinary neutrophil gelatin enzyme-related lipid delivery protein (NGAL) and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) in the acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) operation in children with non-cyanotic congenital heart disease (CHD). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted. 200 CPB undergoing cardiac surgery in children with non-cyanotic CHD admitted to Tianjin Children's Hospital from June 2015 to May 2017 were enrolled. All patients were divided into AKI group and non-AKI group within 48 hours after operation, and the two groups matched with age, sex, weight, basic complications, operation time and other factors. The differences in serum creatinine (SCr), urinary NGAL and KIM-1 [corrected for urinary creatinine (UCr)] between the two groups before and after operation were compared. The early diagnosis value of urinary NGAL and KIM-1 on AKI was analyzed by the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Results There were 32 patients with different degrees of AKI 48 hours post operation, and the incidence was 16.0%; 60 cases were enrolled in non-AKI group. Compared with non-AKI group, urinary NGAL at 2 hours after operation, urine KIM-1 at 4 hours after operation, and SCr at 10 hours after operation in AKI group were significantly increased, which decreased gradually after reaching peak at 6, 8, 24 hours respectively. It was shown by ROC curve analysis that the area under ROC curve (AUC) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) of postoperative 2-hour urine NGAL, 4-hour urine KIM-1 and 10-hour SCr for diagnosis of AKI were 0.940 (95%CI = 0.890-0.990), 0.939 (95%CI = 0.891-0.986) and 0.959 (95%CI = 0.916-1.000) respectively. When the cut-off value of postoperative 2-hour urine NGAL was 588.0 μg/g, the sensitivity was 87.5%, the specificity was 95.0%, the accuracy was 93.5%; when the cut-off value of postoperative 4-hour urine KIM-1 was 9.55 ng/mg, the sensitivity was 87.5%, the specificity was 91.7%, the accuracy was 90.2%; and when the cut-off value of postoperative 10-hour SCr was 61.90 μmol/L, the sensitivity was 90.6%, the specificity was 95.0%, and the accuracy was 95.7%. Conclusion Urine NGAL and KIM-1 can be used as biomarkers for early diagnosis of AKI after CPB for the non-cyanotic CHD in children.

Objective To summarize the experience of surgical treatment of severe ventricular septal defect (VSD) accompanied by pulmonary hypertension (PH) in little infants. Methods The clinical data of 11 patients with VSD accompanied by PH admitted to the Department of Cardiac Surgery of Tianjin Children's Hospital of the Pediatric Clinical College in Tianjin Medical University from January 2016 to January 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 6 males and 5 females, with the ages of 3 - 6 months, mean (5.36±1.03) months and body weights 4.2 - 7.5 kg, mean (5.9±1.0) kg. Preoperatively, all patients had recurrent pneumonia and heart failure history. After 2 - 3 times of medical treatment in hospitals, the patients underwent sub-acute radical operation under cardiopulmonary bypass. All patients were followed-up with echocardiography, chest X-ray and electrocardiogram examinations at 3, 6 and 12 months after heart surgery. Results After operation, all the children spontaneously recovered the heart beats, the stay times in surgical intensive care unit (SICU) were 2 - 7 days, and total hospitalization times were 12 - 17 days. All patients were followed up for 12 months, no death occurred in the whole group, and the heart and lung functions recovered satisfactorily. Conclusions Little infants with large VSD and PH should undertake operation as early as possible. The patients with recurrent pneumonia, heart failure in a short term should receive medical and surgical doctors' cooperative treatment, and the disease situation ought to be adjusted with one's best ability to a stable status when the sub-acute surgery can be carried out safely.
