Objective To assess and analyze the current status of clinical guidelines for hypertension in the world by using the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE) instrument.Methods The clinical guidelines for hypertension were identified and approved by searching China hownet,WANFANG database,PUBMED database,MEDLINE,Embase and related institutions and authorization web site from 1995 to January 2012,and relevant Web sites of agencies and organizations that produce and/or endorse guidelines.Names of the guidelines,published years and organizations,methodology of development and reference number were descriptively analyzed.AGREE instrument was used to evaluate the qualities of latest edited clinical guidelines for hypertension in countries all over the world.Results Nine guidelines were enrolled.The results showed that the hypertension guidelines scored the highest average of 88.4％ for clarity of presentation and reliability field; for applicability fields,scored an average of 86.1％; the scope and goal field scored an average of 83.8％; participants field scored an average of 71.7％; editorial independence field scored an average of 64.1％ ; rigor of development field scored the lowest average of 62.9％.The overall assessment showed that NICE 2011,Canada 2012,ESC 2009,Australia 2010 editions were the positively recommended guidelines,JNC7,Japan 2009,China Taiwan 2010,China 2010,South Africa 2011 editions were the recommended guidelines (still need to supplement and improve).No recommend or uncertain guide was found.Conclusions The quality of the hypertension guidelines is higher in general,but some common deficiency in the rigor of development and editorial independence in Asian and African guidelines formulated by the states still exists.There still exist certain gaps in evidence-based medical requirement.And the contents and quality are needed for further regulating and enhancing.A set of scientific systemic hypertension clinical guidelines evaluation system should be established.

Lipases are important biocatalysts that are widely used in food processing and bio-diesel production. However, organic solvents could inactivate some lipases during applications. Therefore, the efficient cloning and expression of the organic solvent-tolerant lipase is important to its application. In this work, we first found out an organic solvent-tolerant lipase from Staphylococcus saprophyticus M36 and amplified the 741 bp Lipase gene lip3 (GenBank Accession No. FJ979867), by PCR, which encoded a 31.6 kD polypeptide of 247 amino acid residues. But the lipase shared 83% identity with tentative lip3 gene of Staphylococcus saprophyticus (GenBank Accession No. AP008934). We connected the gene with expression vector pET-DsbA, transformed it into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3), and obtained the recombinant pET-DsbA-lip3. With the induction by 0.4 mmol/L of isopropyl beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside at pH 8.0, OD600 1.0, 25 degrees C for 12 h, the lipase activity reached up to 25.8 U/mL. The lipase expressed was stable in the presence of methanol, n-hexane, and isooctane, n-heptane.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of exercise rehabilitation in coronary heart disease patients post reascularization procedure.Method We searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CCRCT),Pubmed,Wanfang,CNKI,CBM and VIP database for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on exercise rehabilitation for patients with coronary artery disease post percutaneous coronary intervention revascularization or coronary artery bypass grafting.Quality assessment and data collection were conducted by two reviewers independently.The data were analyzed by Review Manager 5.0.Results A total of 3 474 patients from 16 RCTs were included in this meta-analysis and patients were divided into exercise rehabilitation group (n =1 425) and control group (n =2 049).Meta-analysis results showed mortality rate was similar between the two groups (OR =0.81,95％ CI 0.38-1.69,P ＞ 0.05) and the incidence of major cardiovascular events rate (OR =0.40,95％ CI 0.24-0.65,P ＜ 0.01) and heart rate [mean difference(MD) =-2.82,95％ CI-4.72--0.92,P ＜ 0.01] were significantly lower while LVEF (MD =2.24,95％ CI 0.18-4.31,P ＜ 0.05),the exercise metabolic equivalent (MD =0.94,95％ CI 0.43-1.44,P ＜ 0.01),anaerobic threshold (MD =1.83,95 ％ CI 0.67-3.00,P ＜ 0.01),and maximum oxygen consumption (MD =3.22,95％ CI 2.42-4.03,P ＜ 0.01) were significantly higher in exercise rehabilitation group than in control group.Conclusion Exercise rehabilitation does not increase the risk of mortality in patients of coronary heart disease after revascularization and can effectively reduce major cardiovascular events.

With the genomic DNA of strain EJS-3 as the template, we amplified the gene of fibrinolytic enzyme from Paenibacillus polymyxa (PPFE-I) by PCR. We purified the PCR product and ligated it into pMD19-T. After DNA sequencing, we cloned the PPFE-I gene into expression vector pET-DsbA and transformed it into Escherichia coli BL21(DE3). Upon induction of IPTG, we found that the activity of recombinant fibrinolytic enzyme fused with DsbA expressed in Escherichia coli was 228 IU/mL. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that the recombinant enzyme was soluble and accounted for about 18.4% of total cell protein. Western blotting demonstrated that the recombinant protein was DsbA-PPFE-I. We purified the recombinant enzyme by Ni affinity chromatography, thrombin digestion and sephadex G-100 gel-filtration, and identified the molecular weight of purified product to be 66.3 kDa with MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The purified enzyme exhibited distinct fibrinolytic activity on fibrin plate.

The development of acute liver injury can result in liver cirrhosis, liver failure, and even liver cancer, yet there is currently no effective therapy for it. The purpose of this study was to investigate the protective effect and therapeutic mechanism of Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBPs) on acute liver injury induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). To create a model of acute liver injury, experimental canines received an intraperitoneal injection of 1 mL/kg of CCl4 solution. The experimental canines in the therapy group were then fed LBPs (20 mg/kg). CCl4-induced liver structural damage, excessive fibrosis, and reduced mitochondrial density were all improved by LBPs, according to microstructure data. By suppressing Kelch-like epichlorohydrin (ECH)-associated protein 1 (Keap1), promoting the production of sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1)/p62, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), and phase Ⅱ detoxification genes and proteins downstream of Nrf2, and restoring the activity of anti-oxidant enzymes like catalase (CAT), LBPs can restore and increase the antioxidant capacity of liver. To lessen mitochondrial damage, LBPs can also enhance mitochondrial respiration, raise tissue adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels, and reactivate the respiratory chain complexes I?V. According to serum metabolomics, the therapeutic impact of LBPs on acute liver damage is accomplished mostly by controlling the pathways to lipid metabolism. 9-Hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (9-HODE), lysophosphatidylcholine (LysoPC/LPC), and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) may be potential indicators of acute liver injury. This study confirmed that LBPs, an effective hepatoprotective drug, may cure acute liver injury by lowering oxidative stress, repairing mitochondrial damage, and regulating metabolic pathways.
