ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the correlation between acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and stress differentiation factors (GDF-15), catecholamines, and heat shock proteins (HSP-70). Methods A total of 40 patients with ACS were selected from the Emergency Department of the PLA General Hospital from September 10, 2016 to October 10, 2016. 40 healthy volunteers were selected as the control group. The information of age, gender, history of smoking, drinking, hyperlipidemia, hypertension and diabetes. Inspection indicators of blood biochemistry (Creation kinase Isoenzyme, Total cholesterol, Triglyceride, High-density lipoprotein, Blood glucose, Total bilirubin, Direct bilirubin), serum level of GDF-15, catecholamine (Adrenaline,norepinephrine,dopamine)and HSP-70 were collected. Evaluation of Coronary Stenosis used with Coronary Artery Lesions and Gensini Score. Statistical analysis using SPSS 17.0 statistical software, measurement data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation (x±s),count data to the number of cases and percentage, measurement using t test, count data using chisquare test. Results Serum levels of GDF-15[(21.94±14.23) vs. (7.06±5.53), P=0.007],catecholami ne[(46592.15±30931.27) vs. (5507.14±2083.28), P<0.01], HSP-70 [(369.56±300.44) vs. (07.76±54.23),P<0.001],all higher than the control group. GDF-15 serum levels of Gensini scores> 40 compare with <20group was significantly higher [(324.27 ± 198.81) vs. (77.43 ± 699.22), P=0.035], serum catecholaminelevels of > 40 group compare with <20 group significantly increased [(18.71 ± 7.32) vs. (18.6±46.1),P=0.017], GDF-15 levels were significantly higher in the multi-vessel stenosis group than in the doublevessel stenosis group[ (618.40±434.42) vs. (292.07±219.65), P=0.033]. Conclusions GDF-15,catecholamine and HSP-70 are correlated with ACS, as well as the severity of coronary artery lesions.
ABSTRACT
A visual display terminal (VDT) mental fatigue task was designed to search for the objective indicator to diagnose and evaluate the VDT mental fatigue status. The signals of temperature and electrocardiograph (ECG) are collected from the subjects. The temperature, heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) are extracted as the objective parameters after analyzing the temperature signals in time domain and the ECG signals in time domain and frequency domain. Compared with mental fatigue pre-experiment, the temperature increased significantly (P<0.001), and the RR-PNN50 increased obviously (P<0.05), while the S wavelet of ECG signals decreased obviously (P<0.05) after mental fatigue experiment. Compared with the end of mental fatigue experiment, the temperature increased, the changes of RR-PNN50 were not obvious, the S wavelet increased significantly (P<0.01), and the mental fatigue was somewhat remittance after natural recovery. The results showed that the objective indicator to evaluate the VDT mental fatigue status would be hopeful to be found out by analyzing the signals of temperature and ECG.

Objective To explore the association of CD22 gene T＞A locus (SNPrs2267574) with the development of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and SLE phenotypes in Southern Chinese Han people.Methods Two hundreds fifteen cases and 216 normal controls were enrolled with the aim of case-control design,and the genotype was determined by PCR-RFLP.We calculated X2 and ORs for association study.Results In CD22 gene T＞A locus,there was significant difference of genotypes distribution between cases and controls (X2=6.086,P＜0.05).The frequency of AT genotype was higher in cases than in controls (OR=1.68,95%CI:1.08～2.60,P=0.021 ),and A allele had a higher proportion in cases (OR=1.58,95%CI:1.09～2.29,P=0.015).Meanwhile,the frequency of A allele in patients with positive anti-SSA was higher than in patients with negative anti-SSA (OR=3.69,95%CI:2.08～6.52,P＜0.01 ).Conclusion In Southern Chinese Han population,CD22 gene T＞A locus is associated with the development of SLE and the A allele has positive association with anti-SSA.
