ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of warfarin on coagulation and hemorheology in patients with atrial fibrillation.Methods 106 cases of admitted in our hospital from October 2014 to October 2016 were randomly divided into observation group(53 cases)and control group(53 cases).The control group re-ceived routine treatment,the observation group received routine and warfarin treatment.The two groups were treated for 4 weeks.The therapeutic effects were compared between the two groups.Before and after treat-ment,indicators of heart function,blood coagulation and hemorheology were observed.Results The total effi-ciency of observation group(92.45%)was higher than that of the control group(73.58%,P<0.05).After treatment,the TT and APTT of the two groups both increased(P<0.05);The TT and APTT of the observa-tion group were higher than that of the control group(P<0.05);The plasma viscosity,erythrocyte aggrega-tion index,and fibrinogen of the two groups decreased(P<0.05);The plasma viscosity,erythrocyte aggrega-tion index,fibrinogen of the observation group were lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclu-sion Warfarin has obvious curative effect on patients with atrial fibrillation,and can improve the function of blood coagulation and hemorheology.
ABSTRACT
Objective T o study the characteristic of contrast visual evoked potentials (C V E P ) in patients w ith ocular traum a. Methods Sixty patients defined as ocular traum a by forensic clinical exam ination in our center w ere selected, and split into 0.2-0.3 (G roup A ), 0.3-0.5 (G roup B ) and ≥0.5 (G roup C ) according to the best corrected visual acuity. T he variation characteristics of w ave am plitude and latency of C V E P under 100%, 25% and 10% contrast w ere observed and analyzed statistically. Results (1) U n-der the sam e contrast, the w ave am plitude of P 100 decreased w ith the decrease of stim ulus perspective. (2) U nder the sam e stim ulus perspective, the w ave am plitude of P100 decreased w ith the decrease of contrast (P0.05). B etw een group A and group C , group B and group C , the w ave am plitude of P100 gradually increased w ith the increase of vision (P0.05). U nder the sam e stim ulus per-spective, the latency of P100 w ave w as prolonged w ith the decrease of contrast (P>0.05). Conclusion C V E P m ay becom e one of the possible m ethods for the evaluation of contrast visual acuity.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate concentration and distribution in blood and tissues of form icacid after m ethanol intoxication in rats. Methods The Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into groups for con-trol group and 3-day and 7-day intoxication treatm ent groups. The experim ental groups were adm inis-tered m ethanol by gavage with the initial dose of 8 m L/kg and followed with 4 m L/kg supplem ental dose 24 h later. After 3 days and 7 days later, rats were killed by decapitation. Then sam ples of cardiac blood, liver, kidney, brain, heart and stom ach of each group were collected. Form icacid concentrations were detected by high perform ance liquid chrom atography. Results Form icacid concentrations in tissues were higher than in blood. Com pared with 3-day intoxication group, there was an increase form icacid of concentration in brain and stom ach in 7-day intoxication group, while a decrease in liver and kidney (P<0.05). Conclusion H igh perform ance liquid chrom atography could be used to accurately detect form icacid. As the m etabolite of m ethanol, form icacid accum ulates in rat blood and tissues after intoxication and the concentrations in organs and tissues are obviously higher than in blood.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the correlation between contrast vision (CV) and sweep visual evoked potential acuity (SVEP-A) among people with emmetropia, mild myopia, and moderate myopia. Meth-ods The CV and SVEP-A were tested individually in 96 eyes from healthy young volunteers, including 37 eyes of emmetropia, 27 eyes of mild myopia, and 32 eyes of moderate myopia. The statistic analysis was done by ANOVA analysis and rank sum test. Results (1) With the decrease of contrast, CV and SVEP-A decreased in every group. (2) At 100% contrast, the difference of CV between emmetropia and mild myopia had statistical significance (P<0.05). At 100%, 25% and 10% contrast, the difference of CV between emmetropia and moderate myopia had statistical significance (P<0.05). (3) In the same group, the difference of 100% and 25% contrast had statistical significance (P<0.05). So was between 100% and 10% contrast. (4) At 100% and 10% contrast, the difference of CV and SVEP-A had statis-tical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion The CV of myopia relates to many factors including ametropia and fundus lesions. The correction of ametropia is important to the values of CV and SVEP-A.
ABSTRACT
αB-crystallin is the structural protein of vertebrate lens, w hich is w idely expressed in non-lens tissue. As one of the heat shock protein fam ily m em bers,αB-crystallin possesses biological proper-ties of m olecular chaperones and anti-apoptotic effects. Multi-factor injuries, such as retinopathy, inflam-m ation and nervous system diseases, have a closely relationship w ith αB-crystallin. T his paper review s the research progress of the expression and m echanism ofαB-crystallin in retina and extraocular tissues and organs.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the characters of oscillatory potentials (OPs) of electroretinogram (ERG) after methanol intoxication in rats. Method The SD rat models of methanol intoxication were established and divided into control group, 3-day intoxication group, 7-day intoxication group. The changes of OPs of ERG were recorded in a dark room. Results The total amplitudes of 3-day and 7-day intoxication groups decreased approximately 50% compared with that of the control group, while the schedule de-layed approximately 16% and 61%, respectively. Conclusion The characters of methanol intoxication in rats included delay in schedule and decline in the total amplitude of OPs.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the relationship of the changes of bone density and biochemical marker of bone turnover with osteoporosis in the elderly with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM). Methods A total of 102 elderly patients with type 2 diabetes and 42 healthy subjects (normal controls) were included in this study.The bone mineral density (BMD) of lumbar vertebrae and femur were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).The T2 DM subjects were divided into two groups:osteoporosis group (56 cases) and non-osteoporosis group (46 cases).The levels of total procollagen type Ⅰ amino-terminal propeptide (TP Ⅰ NP),β-isomerized carboxyterminal propeptide (β-CTx),parathyroid hormone (PTH),serum calcium (Ca2+),serum phosphorus (P),alkaline phosphatase (ALP),fasting blood glucose(FBG),glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc) and body mass index (BMI) were detected. The correlations between BMD of the osteoporosis group and other related factors were analyzed. Results The BMD values of lumbar vertebrae and femur neck,troch,ward's triangle in the osteoporosis group were decreased as compared with control(t=9.006,6.347,7.387,5.321,P＜ 0.01) and the serum TP Ⅰ NP,β-CTx,PTH,ALP,FBG,HbAlc,Creatinine and albumin/Cr in the osteoporosis group were significantly higher than controls(t=2.212,4.431,2.215,3.544,0.433,1.629,0.365,5.436,P＜0.01 or P＜0.05),the 25-(OH)VD3 in the osteoporosis group was lower than in controls(t=2.700,P＜0.01).Correlation analysis showed TP Ⅰ NP was negatively correlated with the BMD of femoral Troch and Ward's triangle (r=-0.413,-0.375,P＜0.01),and β CTx was negatively correlated with the BMD of femoral Troch (r=-0.301,P＜0.05).The TP Ⅰ NP,β-CTx in the overweight group and obesity group were higher than in normal group(F=50.59,51.28; F =96.20,95.71,all P＜0.01);the melbine group had higher TP Ⅰ NP,β-CTx than the thiazolidinedione and sulfonylurea group(F=32.33,33.35,F=31.07,39.18,P＜0.01);the TP Ⅰ NP,β-CTx in the better blood glucose control group were lower than in the bad control group(F=11.32,13.69,P＜0.01);the TP Ⅰ NP,β-CTx in the group with complication were increased as compared with no complication group(F=52.75,70.34,P＜0.01).Conclusions The spine BMD in elderly T2DM patients is decreased to some degree.The combined application of TP Ⅰ NP and β-CTx is helpful for the early diagnosis of osteoporosis in patients with type 2 diabetes.
