Objective:To explore the effect of systolic blood pressure (SBP) trajectories on cancers.Methods:The relevant data of 54, 888 employees of Kailuan (Group) Limited Liability Company who participated in the 3 health examinations from 2006-2007, 2008-2009, 2010-2011 were collected and the new onset cancer cases were recorded. The systolic blood pressure trajectory grouping was carried out using the blood pressure measurement values of the 3 physical examinations. The life table method was used to calculate the incidence of cancer, and the multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to analyze the influence factors of cancer.Results:According to the systolic blood pressure trajectory, 54, 888 subjects were divided into 5 groups, including 14, 326 in the low-stable group, 25, 630 in the moderate-stable group, 5, 390 in the moderate-increasing group, 6, 438 in the elevated-lowering group, and 3, 104 in the elevated-stable group. A total of 1, 070 new onset cancer occurred during the follow-up period of (4.95±0.53) years. The incidence of cancer in the low-stable group, moderate-stable group, moderate-increasing group, elevated-lowering group and elevated-stable group were 1.3% (177/14, 326), 2.2% (491/25, 360), 3.1% (147/5, 390), 2.7% (156/6, 438) and 3.8% (99/3, 104), respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). After adjusting for gender, age, smoking, drinking, physical exercise, body mass index (BMI), fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, antihypertensive drugs, hypoglycemic drugs, and lipid-lowering drugs, multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the systolic blood pressure trajectory was related to the incidence of cancer. Compared with the low-stable group, the Hazard ratio ( HR) in the moderate-stable group, moderate-increasing group, elevated-lowering group and elevated-stable group were 1.413, 1.731, 1.557 and 1.907, respectively (all P<0.001). Conclusion:High systolic blood pressure trajectories is the risk factor for cancer.

Objective: To investigate the association between sleep duration and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV). Methods: A cross-sectional study method was used to observe 38 604 employees of Kailuan Group who participated in the physical examination and the baPWV test from January 2010 to July 2018. The age was (51.6±11.1) years old. There were 72.4% (27 955/38 604) male participants. According to the sleep duration, subjects were divided into 5 groups including ≤ 5 hours group (3 762 cases),>5 hours and ≤6 hours group (9 585 cases),>6 hours and ≤7 hours group (12 604 cases), >7 hours and ≤8 hours group (11 921 cases) and >8 hours group (732 cases). Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between sleep duration and the baPWV. Results: The age was (51.6±11.1) years old. There were 72.4% (27 955/38 604) male participants. The prevalence of baPWV≥14 m/s in ≤ 5 hours group, >5 hours and ≤6 hours group, >6 hours and ≤7 hours group, >7 hours and ≤8 hours group, and >8 hours group was 63.5% (2 389/3 762), 58.9% (5 645/9 585), 55.0% (6 926/12 604), 53.3% (6 356/11 921) and 54.8% (401/732) respectively. After adjusting for confounding factors including age, gender, smoking, drinking, physical exercise, snoring, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, body mass index≥24 kg/m², mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and C-reactive protein, the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the OR were 1.48 (95%CI 1.29-1.70, P<0.01) and 1.18 (95%CI 1.07-1.30, P<0.01) respectively for baPWV≥14 m/s in ≤ 5 hours and >5 hours and ≤6 hours group when compared with >7 hours and ≤ 8 hours group. Conclusion Short sleep duration is associated with elevated baPWV in mid-aged Chinese population.

Objective To investigate the effect of maternal limb ischemic preconditioning on the expression of caspase-3 in neurons in brain tissues after reoxygenation in the fetal rats with intrauterine distress.Methods Forty Sprague-Dawley rats at 19 days of gestation were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=10 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),limb ischemic preconditioning group (group LIP),fetal rat distress group (group FD),and limb ischemic preconditioning + fetal rat distress group (group LIP+FD).Distress/reoxygenation model was established by clamping the uterine and ovarian arteries and veins with a micro-artery clamp for 15 min followed by removal of the clamp to permit reperfusion.Limb ischemic preconditioning was induced by 3 cycles of occlusion of the lower limb blood flow at the site of the right groin for 5 min with a tourniquet followed by 5 min unclamping.In group LIP+ FD,the uterine and ovarian arteries and veins were clamped,and limb ischemic preconditioning was performed at the same time.Cesarean section was performed on 2 days after the end of treatments in each group,and the fetal rat mortality rate was calculated.The fetal rats alive were sacrificed,and the hippocampi were isolated for determination of neuronal apoptosis (by TUNEL) and expression of caspase-3 protein and mRNA (by Western blot and real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction,respectively) in hippocampal CA1 region.Apoptosis index was calculated.Results Compared with group S,the fetal rat mortality rate and apoptosis index were significantly increased,and the expression of caspase-3 protein and mRNA in hippocampal CA1 region was significantly up-regulated in FD and LIP+FD groups (P＜0.05 or 0.0l),and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group LIP (P＞0.05).Compared with group FD,the fetal rat mortality rate and apoptosis index were significantly decreascd,and the expression of caspase-3 protein and mRNA iu hippocampal CA1 region was significantly down-regulated in group LIP+FD (P＜0.05 or 0.01).Conclusion The mechanism by which maternal limb ischemic preconditioning inhibits apoptosis in neurons after reoxygenation is related to down-regulation of the expression of caspase-3 in the fetal rats with intrauterine distress.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To investigate the effects of maternal limb ischemic preconditioning ( LIP) on the mitochon-drial structures and functions of the hippocampal neurons induced by reoxygenation in the intrauterine distress fetal rats. METHODS:Pregnant rats (n=40) were randomly divided into 4 groups: sham (S) group, LIP group, fetal distress ( FD) group and LIP+FD group.Intrauterine ischemia model was established through the experimental design.The ultra-structure of the mitochondria in CA1 area of the hippocampus was observed .The mitochondrial membrane potential and re-active oxygen species ( ROS) were measured .The content of ATP and MDA in the hippocampus tissue was detected.The activity of Mn-SOD was observed.RESULTS:Compared with sham group, the ultrastructure of mitochondria in CA1 area of the hippocampus was damaged in FD group and LIP+FD group.The mitochondrial membrane potential, the content of ATP and the activity of Mn-SOD were decreased.However, the content of ROS and MDA was increased.Compared with FD group, the ultrastructure of mitochondria in CA1 area of the hippocampus was intact in LIP+FD group.Furthermore, the reduced mitochondrial membrane potential and ATP content were inhibited.The activity of Mn-SOD was increased, but the content of ROS and MDA was decreased in LIP+FD group.CONCLUSION:Limb ischemia preconditioning inhibits the damage the mitochondria of fetal hippocampal neurons induced by reoxygenation in the intrauterine distress fetal rats.

Objective To investigate correlation of right ventricular hypertrophy and vitamin D , atrial fibrillation and NT-proBNP in patients with pulmonary heart disease.Methods 40 cases of pulmonary heart disease were selected, according to whether the right ventricular hypertrophy or not, and divided into hypertrophy group and non hypertrophy group.Echocardiography, serum 25 hydroxy vitamin D, 24 h dynamic electrocardiogram and NT-proBNP level were detected, and the correlation were detected between the right ventricular hypertrophy and influence factors.ResuIts The right ventricular anterior wall ( RVAW) and right ventricular diastolic diameter ( RVDd) in hypertrophy group were significantly greater than those in non hypertrophy group (P<0.05).The serum 25 hydroxy vitamin D levels in hypertrophy group was lower than that in non hypertrophy group (P<0.05), but there was no significant correlation of right ventricular hypertrophy and 25 hydroxy vitamin D levels(r=-0.189,P=0.424).The thickness of right ventricular anterior wall in atrial fibrillation group was greater than that in non atrial fibrillation group (P<0.05), but there was no significant correlation of right ventricular hypertrophy and atrial fibrillation times(r=0.178,P=0.452).Serum NT-proBNP levels in hypertrophy group was higher than that in non hypertrophy group (P<0.05), but there was no significant correlation of right ventricular hypertrophy and serum NT-proBNP levels(r=-0.105, P=0.660).ConcIusion Patients with right ventricular hypertrophy of pulmonary heart disease who has a lower serum 25 hydroxy vitamin D level and a higher NT-proBNP level.Patients with atrial fibrillation has a thicker RVAW.However, there was no correlation of above influence factors.

OBJECTIVE: To confirm the feasibility of target-controlled infusion of midazolam on conscious sedation for patients undergoing combined spinalepidural anesthesia and the needed target-controlled blood concentration.METHODS: Sixty patients undergoing combined spinal-epidural anesthesia were subjected to target-controlled infusion of midazolam.The level of sedation of midazolam was evaluated applying OAA/S score and bispectral index(BIS).The correlation between target-controlled blood concentration(Cp) and BIS was determined.The Cp,BIS,MAP,HR and SpO2 at different OAA/S were observed.
