ObjectiveTo establish a set of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) detection protocol for inbred rats based on multiplex PCR-ligase detection reaction (LDR). MethodsA total of 40 rats SNP sites were selected on chromosomes 1-20 and X of rats among 5 inbred strains of rats, and the 40 SNP sites were randomly divided into four groups. A genetic detection protocol for 4 groups of SNP in inbred rats based on multiplex PCR-LDR technology was constructed. 9 commonly used rat strains from two other domestic rat suppliers were detected by this protocol. Finally, the feasibility of this protocol was verified by comparing the amplification effects of different DNA polymerases by a third-party laboratory. ResultsWhen using the constructed SNP detection protocol for inbred rats to test 5 rat strains, all sites in each sample obtained good amplification results. The 9 commonly used rat strains from two other rat suppliers in china were also well amplified by this SNP detection protocol, and 40 SNPs were homozygous in each Inbred strain. The results of detection of the same rat DNA samples with three different DNA polymerases showed that the Multiplex PCR Kit, AmpliTaq Gold 360 DNA polymerase and Platinum II Taq hot start DNA polymerase had electrophoretic peaks of amplification products at all SNP sites in groups 1 to 3, and Platinum II Taq hot start DNA polymerase had one less electrophoretic peak of the amplification products at the SNP sites in group 4. In addition, inter-laboratory comparisons showed consistent results for the same amplification system. ConclusionBased on multiplex PCR-LDR technology, this study successfully established a SNP detection protocol for rats covering all autosomes and X chromosomes with the excellent stability and repeatability.

The oral cavity of each person is home to hundreds of bacterial species.While taxa for oral diseases have been studied using culture-based characterization as well as amplicon sequencing,metagenomic and genomic information remains scarce compared to the fecal microbiome.Here,using metagenomic shotgun data for 3346 oral metagenomic samples together with 808 published samples,we obtain 56,213 metagenome-assembled genomes(MAGs),and more than 64%of the 3589 species-level genome bins(SGBs)contain no publicly available genomes.The resulting genome collection is representative of samples around the world and contains many genomes from candi-date phyla radiation(CPR)that lack monoculture.Also,it enables the discovery of new taxa such as a genus Candidatus Bgiplasma within the family Acholeplasmataceae.Large-scale metagenomic data from massive samples also allow the assembly of strains from important oral taxa such as Por-phyromonas and Neisseria.The oral microbes encode genes that could potentially metabolize drugs.Apart from these findings,a strongly male-enriched Campylobacter species was identified.Oral sam-ples would be more user-friendly collected than fecal samples and have the potential for disease diagnosis.Thus,these data lay down a genomic framework for future inquiries of the human oral microbiome.

The vagina contains at least a billion microbial cells,dominated by lactobacilli.Here we perform metagenomic shotgun sequencing on cervical and fecal samples from a cohort of 516 Chinese women of reproductive age,as well as cervical,fecal,and salivary samples from a second cohort of 632 women.Factors such as pregnancy history,delivery history,cesarean section,and breastfeeding were all more important than menstrual cycle in shaping the microbiome,and such information would be necessary before trying to interpret differences between vagino-cervical micro-biome data.Greater proportion of Bifidobacterium breve was seen with older age at sexual debut.The relative abundance of lactobacilli especially Lactobacillus crispatus was negatively associated with pregnancy history.Potential markers for lack of menstrual regularity,heavy flow,dysmenor-rhea,and contraceptives were also identified.Lactobacilli were rare during breastfeeding or post-menopause.Other features such as mood fluctuations and facial speckles could potentially be predicted from the vagino-cervical microbiome.Gut and salivary microbiomes,plasma vitamins,metals,amino acids,and hormones showed associations with the vagino-cervical microbiome.Our results offer an unprecedented glimpse into the microbiota of the female reproductive tract and call for international collaborations to better understand its long-term health impact other than in the settings of infection or pre-term birth.

Objective To analyze the risk factors of cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) in acute cerebral infarction patients. Methods We consecutively included 255 acute cerebral infarction patients who were admitted in Neurology Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from January 2014 to December 2016. According to the number and location of CMBs, the patients were divided into infratentorial, cortical and deep cerebral groups, each of which included non-mild and moderate-severe subgroups. The differences of the level of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and some common arteriosclerotic risk factors were analyzed between subgroups, and the multiple logistic regression analysis was performed. Results A total of 140 subjects (54.9%) had CMBs. In the infratentorial group, the proportion of patients who were with low eGFR level in the moderate-severe CMBs subgroup was higher than in the non-mild CMBs subgroup (P=0.024). The low eGFR level (OR=3.874, 95% CI:1.261~11.901, P=0.018) and the long duration of hypertension (OR=2.128, 95%CI: 1.004~4.510, P=0.018) were the independent risk factors of the moderate-severe infratentorial CMBs. Conclusion The low eGFR level and long duration of hypertension are risk factors for the moderate and severe infratentorial CMBs after acute ischemic stroke.

China Pharmacist 2017;20(2):284-286
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of acarbose combined with metformin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes with hyper-lipidemia. Methods:A retrospective study was adopted. A total of 2000 patients with type 2 diabetes and hyperlipidemia from general practice in the center were enrolled, and among them, 1050 patients were treated with acarbose, and the other 950 ones were treated with acarbose combined with metformin. After 3-month treatment, the therapeutic effect and adverse drug reactions were compared be-tween the groups. The changes of blood glucose and blood lipid were observed before and after the treatment. Results:The total effec-tive rate was 94. 83% in the combined group, which was significantly higher than that in the control group (72. 38%, P<0. 05). Af-ter the treatment, the blood glucose levels of both groups significantly decreased (P<0. 05), and the decrease in the combined group was more significant than that in the control group (P<0. 05). After the treatment, the serum lipid levels of both groups were signifi-cantly improved (P<0. 05), and the improvement in the combined group was much better than that in the control group (P<0. 05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of drug reactions between the groups (P>0. 05). Conclusion:Acar-bose combined with metformin in the treatment of type 2 diabetes with hyperlipidemia can significantly improve blood glucose levels and blood lipid levels, and the clinical efficacy should be affirmed.

Objective To investigate the application of intravascular ultrasonography in guiding the performance of interventional management for coronary true bifurcation lesions. Methods A total of 62 patients with coronary true bifurcation lesions, who were admitted to authors’ hospital during the period from April 2010 to Jan. 2014 to receive double stenting treatment, were included in this study. The patients were randomly divided into intravascular ultrasonography group (IVUS group, n=32) and coronary angiography group(CA group, n=30). The minimal lumen diameter(MLD), the minimal lumen area(MLA), the reference lumen diameter (RLD), the length of the lesion and the diameter and length of the implanted stent were determined, and the results were compared between the two groups. During the follow-up period lasting for 12 months after percutaneous coronary intervention, the incidence of in - stent thrombus, target lesion revascularization (TLR) and major adverse cardiac events were recorded. Results The MLD values of the main artery and branches in IVUS group were higher than those in CA group, but the difference was not significant (P>0.05). The MLA, RLD, the diameter and length of the implanted stent in IVUS group were significantly larger than those in CA group (P<0.05). The incidence of in-stent thrombus, TLR and major adverse cardiac events in IVUS group were lower than those in CA group (P>0.05). Conclusion Intravascular ultrasound- guided double stent implantation for coronary true bifurcation lesions can help optimize the performance of stenting and improve the long-term outcome of percutaneous coronary intervention.

Objective To investigate the risk factors, clinical and angiographic features of women aged 50 or less with coronary artery disease(CAD). Methods One hundred and seventy-three female CAD patients comifrmed by coronary angiographic aged 50 or less were classiifed as group A, while another 494 non-CAD women aged 50 or less as group B. The differences in CAD risk factors, clinical and angiographic features between the 2 groups were analyzed. Results There were more women with diabetes, positive CAD family history, dyslipidemia or hypertension (especially diastolic hypertension) in group A than in group B. Patient in group A had higher diastolic pressures and serum glucose level than those in group B but both groups had similar body weights, systolic pressures and menopause ages. The serum total cholesterol and triglyceride levels were higher in patients in group A than those in group B while high-density-lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and apolipoprotein A levels were lower in group A. The low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) and apolipoprotein B were higher in group A than in group B but without signiifcance. There were more women with positive urine protein in group A than in group B. In group A, more than 50%of patients were with single diseased artery while another 15%with slight coronary artery atherosclerosis or even normal arteries. Most of the lesions were found in left anterior descending artery (LAD) and its branches. Conclusions Risk factors of CAD included diabetes, positive CAD family history, dyslipidemia, hypertension(especially diastolic hypertension) and positive urine protein in women aged 50 or less Menopause alone, without other CAD risk factors, would not lead to CAD. Single vessel disease was more commonly found in this group of patients.
