Objective:To explore the value of adenosine loaded 99Tc m-MIBI single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in evaluating the therapeutic effect of nicorandil on coronary microvascular angina (CMVA). Methods:Sixty eight patients diagnosed with CMVA in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2021 to March 2022 were selected and randomly divided into a control group and a nicorandil group, with 34 patients in each group, using a random number table method. The control group received isosorbide mononitrate in addition to conventional treatment, while the nicorandil group received nicorandil in addition to conventional treatment. Both groups were treated continuously for 3 months. All patients underwent adenosine loading 99Tc m-MIBI SPECT before and after treatment to measure the degree of myocardial perfusion defect (SDS), myocardial perfusion defect area (SRS), and degree of improvement of myocardial perfusion defect (SIS). Clinical symptoms, electrocardiogram changes, myocardial enzyme indicators [cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)], hemodynamic parameters [systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR), stroke volume (SV), cardiac output (CO), peripheral resistance (TPR), left ventricular work index (LVWI), and myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO 2)] were evaluated. Results:After treatment, the SDS and SRS of the nicorandil group were significantly lower than those of the control group ( P<0.01), and the SIS was significantly higher than that of the control group (all P<0.01); The improvement of abnormal myocardial perfusion imaging was significantly better than that of the control group (χ 2=4.976, P<0.05); the frequency, duration, and severity of angina attacks, Canadian Heart Association (CCS) grading, and incidence of ischemic changes on electrocardiogram were all lower than those of the control group ( P<0.01); The levels of serum cTnI, CK-MB, and LDH were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.01); SBP, DBP, HR, LVWI, and MVO 2 were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.01), while SV and CO were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.01). Conclusions:Adenosine loaded 99Tc m-MIBI SPECT can effectively evaluate the therapeutic effect of nicorandil on CMVA, and nicorandil can improve myocardial perfusion defects and clinical manifestations in CMVA patients.

The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is about 30%.The morbidity and mortality of AKI are higher in very premature infants, very low birth weight infants and infants with long mechanical ventilation.Serum creatinine (Scr) and urine output are diagnostic indicators for AKI, which usually change within 12-48 hours after the onset of irreversible injury, and cannot be used for early diagnosis and clinical intervention.Therefore, it is necessary to search for indicators of early renal insufficiency, aiming to intervene and prevent early-stage AKI or reduce the occurrence of AKI.Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a non-invasive, continuous, real-time monitoring method, which serves as a supplement to conventional biochemical markers.It provides evidence of early-stage renal ischemia and hypoxia, which contributes to prevent or reduce AKI.This study reviews the clinical application of neonatal renal oxygen saturation monitoring, thus providing clinical reference for renal function protection in critically ill neonates to reduce the occurrence of AKI and improve their prognosis.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of exercise stress echocardiography combined with left ventricular two-dimensional speckle tracking layer-specific strain technique in evaluating subclinical myocardial damage and reserve function in patients with hypertension.Methods:A total of 51 healthy subjects(control group) and 55 hypertensive patients (hypertension group) were enrolled in the treadmill exercise stress test in Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital from October 2018 to January 2020. According to the European Guidelines for the Prevention and Treatment of Hypertension, the inclusion criteria for patients with hypertension were: blood pressure≥140/90 mmHg or who explicitly took antihypertensive drugs, and related cardiovascular diseases were excluded. The conventional parameters of resting and peak exercise, including left ventricular mass index, left ventricular end-diastolic volume index and left ventricular ejection fraction et al, were analyzed by speckle tracking software in two groups. According to the standard images in the resting and peak exercise, the endocardium /mid-myocardium /epicardium of left ventricular (three-, two-, four-chamber and global) longitudinal strain and circumferential strain (papillary muscle level) were compared respectively in two groups. The characteristics of strain differences and the systolic function reserve between the resting and peak exercise were evaluated.Results:There were significant differences in conventional ultrasound parameters between resting and peak exercise period in hypertension group, except E/A and e/a ratio (all P<0.05), and E/e value increased significantly(12.1±0.38) during peak exercise, indicating impaired diastolic reserve function. The longitudinal and circumferential layer-specific strain values from endocardial to epicardial were gradually decreased in both two groups. Compared with the control group, the resting longitudinal and circumferential endocardial strain values in hypertensive group were decreased, and the differences were more obvious at peak status, for instance global longitudinal endocardium strain at rest[control group (24.4±1.5)%, hypertension group (20.4±2.3)%], peak status[control group (30.8±2.8)%, hypertension group (22.8±2.9)%]( P<0.05). There were no significant differences of the partial layer-specific strain values between the peak exercise and resting status in hypertension group, while peak layer-specific strain of the control group were all significantly increased, suggesting that the left ventricular systolic reserve function of hypertension patients was lower than that of the control group. Conclusions:Left ventricular layer-specific strain can effectively evaluate the myocardial function in patients with hypertension, especially the endocardial strain can be used as an indicator parameter, and the peak exercise stress state is more sensitive. The systolic and diastolic reserve function of the left ventricle in patients with hypertension at the peak period are reduced to different degrees. Exercise stress echocardiography combined with left ventricular layer-specific strain technique can be used as a new method for detection of myocardial function impairment in patients with hypertension.

Objective:To analyze the clinical value and predictive difference of serum Golgi protein 73 (GP73) and serum autophagy-related protein p62 levels in the short-term prognosis of patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF).Methods:Clinical data of admitted cases to our hospital from October 2018 to April 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Simultaneously, there were 32 cases with HBV-related ACLF in group A, 65 cases with hepatitis B virus-related cirrhosis in group B and C (Child-Pugh Class A, 34 cases as B group, and Child-Pugh B/C class, 31 cases as group C), and another 30 healthy subjects served as the control group (group D). The serum GP73 and p62 levels of the four selected groups were measured. ACLF group patients were followed up for 3 months to analyze the prognosis of the patients. The serum GP73 and p62 levels of patients who died and survived during hospitalization were compared. The data were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance, independent sample t-test, and Pearson’s correlation analysis. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyze the predictive value of GP73 and p62 levels in surviving patients.Results:GP73 levels in the four groups A, B, C and D were (284.30 ± 70.55) ng/ml, (125.33 ± 20.57) ng/ml, (159.82 ± 31.20) ng/ml, and (45.46 ± 10.22) ng/ml, respectively. The p62 levels were (1.30 ± 0.35) ng/ml, (2.88 ± 0.58) ng/ml, (2.02 ± 0.545) ng/ml, and (4.68 ± 1.03) ng/ml, respectively. GP73 detection value was significantly higher in group A than the other three groups ( P < 0.05). Group D had significantly lower value than the other three groups ( P < 0.05), and group C had significantly higher value than group B ( P < 0.05). The detection value of p62 in group A was significantly lower than the other three groups ( P < 0.05). Group D had significantly higher value than the other three groups ( P < 0.05), and group B had slightly higher value than group C, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). There was a negative correlation between GP73 and p62 ( r = -0.695, P < 0.001). Survived patients GP73 level in the ACLF group was significantly lower than dead patients [(212.17 ± 22.47) ng/ml and (340.08 ± 32.91) ng/ml, t = 12.493, P < 0.05], and p62 level was significantly higher than dead patients [(1.46 ± 0.28) ng/ml and (1.18 ± 0.35) ng/ml, t = 2.445, P < 0.05]. According to the ROC curve analysis results, the area under the curve (AUC) of GP73 was 0.865, the AUC of p62 was 0.750, and the combined AUC of the both was 0.968. Conclusion:Both GP73 and p62 have a certain predictive value for the short-term prognosis of HBV-related ACLF patients, but the combination of the two indicators has a higher predictive value.

Objective To detect mutations of p53 gene 2-4 exons from peripheral blood and to explore their relevance in HPV16-positive cervical cancer susceptibility and clinical significance. Methods Collected firstly cases from the Third Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from October 2012 to April 2014, included 167 cases HPV16-postive cervical cancer and 160 cases HPV-negative healthy women. Genomic DNA from the host peripheral venous blood was taken, mutations of p53 gene 2-4 exons were analyzed with software DNAstar after PCR and bidirectional sequencing. Meanwhile,mutations of p53 gene 2-4 exons among different clinicopathological characteristics in HPV16-postive cervical cancer were distinguished. Results (1)Three mutations and an 16-bp insertion/deletion sequences were found in p53 gene exons 2-4, included C/G mutation of single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)11827 in intron2, A/C mutation of SNP11992 in intron3, C/G mutation in codon 72 (rs1042522) of exon4 and 16-bp(acctggagggctgggg) repeat insertion or deletion in intron3 (rs17878362), while deletion recorded as A1, insertion recorded as A2. No significant differences were found in each point allele and genotype frequency(P>0.05). (2) Stratified analysis for cervical cancer group resulted with some differences. Compared group of non-squamous carcinoma with squamous carcinoma group, there were obviously decreased in allete A2 [11.8%(4/34) vs 3.5%(10/284); χ2=4.90,P=0.027], genotype A1A2 [4/17 vs 7.0%(10/142); χ2=5.14,P=0.023], and haplotype C-A2 [11.8%(4/34)vs 3.5%(10/284);χ2=4.91,P=0.027]. Compared with poorly differentiated group,allele C of SNP11827 and rs1042522 were obviously decreased in medium high differentiation group [50.8%(61/120)vs 38.8%(62/160);χ2=4.07,P=0.044], while haplotype G-A1 were apparently higher [49.2%(59/120)vs 61.2%(98/160);χ2=4.07,P=0.044], genotype GG of SNP11827 and rs1042522 were obviously decreased in superficial myometrial invasion depth group than that in deep myometrial invasion depth group [46.3%(25/54) vs 21.1%(8/38); χ2=7.06,P=0.029]. No significant differences were found between stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ, pelvic lymph node metastasis or not (all P>0.05). Conclusions No obvious correlation is found between polymorphisms in exons 2-4 of p53 gene and susceptibility of HPV16-postive cervical cancer. But the patient with allete C and A2, genotype GG and A1A2, haplotype C-A2 and G-A1 may be increase risk of poorly differentiation, deep muscular invasion and bad pathological type. Analysis of p53 gene polymorphism may be provide a basis for the prognosis evaluation and individualized treatment of cervical cancer.
