Changes of serum pepsinogen I/II ratio induced by Helicobacter pylori infection in hypertensive patients / 南方医科大学学报

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the changes in serum pepsinogen (PG) I/II ratio induced by Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection and assess the value of PG I/II test in evaluating organ damages in hypertensive patients.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The serum total cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein (HDL) and PG I/II ratio were tested in 288 hypertensive patients with or without Hp infection. The PG I/II ratio between the patients with different grade of hypertension, patients with and without hypertensive nephropathy, patients with and without hypertensive retinopathy. The relationship of PG I/II ratio with serum total cholesterol, triglycerides and HDL was analyzed with Pearson's correlation analysis and the effectiveness of PG I/II ratio in the the diagnosis of nephropathy and retinopathy was evaluated by receiver-operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with patients without Hp infection, the Hp-infected patients showed significantly decreased PG I/II ratio and increased total cholesterol and triglycerides (P<0.05), but their HDL levels, systolic pressure and diastolic pressure were comparable (P>0.05). PG I/II ratio was significantly decreased in patients with nephropathy and retinopathy compared with the patients without nephropathy and retinopathy (P<0.05), and was similar between patients with different grades of hypertension (P>0.05). PG I/II ratio was negatively correlated with serum total cholesterol and triglycerides in the hypertensive patients (P<0.05), and its area under curve (AUC) of ROC was 0.79 and 0.82 in the diagnosis of nephropathy and retinopathy, respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Hypertensive patients with nephropathy and retinopathy have obviously decreased PG I/II ratio, which can be used for screening organ damages in hypertensive patients.</p>

Key point of collaboration during the surgery of endoscopic guided vitrectomy for complicated ocular trauma / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective To summarize the key point of collaboration during the surgery of endoscopic guided vitrectomy for complicated ocular trauma.Methods From October 2010 to March 2013,a total of 25 cases(25 eyes) of complicated ocular trauma were treated by endoscopic guided vitrectomy.The the key point of collaboration was summarized.Results Surgeries of 25 cases (25 eyes) went smoothly,visual acuity improved,without enucleation cases.Postoperative complications were mainly secondary glaucoma and vitreous hemorrhage,and all were improved after treatment.Conclusions Endoscopic guided vitrectomy for the treatment of complicated ocular trauma is one of the effective means,and the advantage is that the surgery could be done when the refractive medium is opacity.

Cloning and Expression of GL-7-ACA Acylase in E.coli / 微生物学通报

To facilitate the expression of GL 7 ACA acylase gene in a recombinant E coli , a fragment of the gene, in which the signal peptide was deleted by PCR method, was inserted into a prokaryotic expression vector, pET 28a By colony PCR method screening, a recombinant plasmid pET ACY was obtained and then transformed into the expression host BL21 (DE3) The influences of induction conditions such as IPTG concentration, the time of induction and the induction temperature on the expression of the recombinant protein were investigated Under optimal condition, the enzyme activity could reach 266 U/L Finally, the recombinant GL 7 ACA acylase can be easily isolated to a purity of about 80% by a simple anion ion exchange chromatography with enzyme activity recovery of 50%
