ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE： To investigate the effects of Danhong injection （DHI） on gene expression profile of acute myocardial infarction （AMI） model rats. METHODS： Male SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group， model group and DHI group （0.76 mL/kg）， with 10 rats in each group. AMI model was established by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery in model group and DHI group. After modeling， sham operation group and model group were given constant volume of normal saline intramuscularly， and DHI group was given relevant medicine intramuscularly， once a day， for consecutive 14 days. After last administration， myocardial tissue in the marginal zone of infarction was separated. The change of gene expression profile was detected by gene chip technique. Using fold-change of relative expression as index， differentially expressed microRNA （miRNA） were screened. On the basis of retrieving their corresponding genes， gene ontology （GO） and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were carried out by using DAVID bioinformatics resource database and KEGG pathway database， respectively. TargetScan database was used to predict the target gene messenger RNA （mRNA） corresponding to differentially expressed miRNA. Cytoscape 3.6.1 software was used to construct and analyze the miRNA-mRNA network. Agilent GeneSpring GX v11.5 software was used to screen target genes and miRNA related to inflammation in the above networks. RESULTS： Compared with sham operation group， there were 22 differentially expressed miRNAs in model group， 5 up-regulated and 17 down-regulated. Compared with model group， there were 26 differentially expressed miRNAs in DHI group， and all of them were up-regulated. The differentially expressed miRNAs related to DHI therapy for AMI included rno-let-7a-5p， rno-let-7d-5p， rno-let-7f-5p， rno-miR-26b-5p， rno-miR-29b-3p， cel-miR-39-3p， cel-miR-39-5p， rno-miR-142-5p， rno-miR-191a-5p， rno-miR-409a-3p. Results of GO analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that differentially expressed miRNAs were mainly concentrated in membrane-bound organelles， cytoplasm， endometrial system and other cell components. The molecular functions such as protein binding and ion binding were exerted through biological processes such as anatomical structure development， multicellular tissue development and development process，which were mainly enriched in calcium signaling pathway， PPAR signaling pathway， VEGF signaling pathway， cell apoptosis， glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchored biosynthesis， valine， leucine and isoleucine degradation， etc. miRNA-mRNA network analysis showed that there were 25 target gene mRNAs corresponding to differentially expressed miRNA and 24 miRNAs related to it. There were 6 inflammation-related target genes （IL6， IL1b， TNF， TLR4， CRP， CXCL12） in this network， involving 19 differentially expressed miRNAs. CONCLUSIONS： The therapeutic effect of DHI on AMI may be related to regulating the expression of related miRNA， affecting signal transduction of calcium ion， PPAR and VEGF pathways， and regulating the secretion of inflammatory markers such as interleukin， chemokine and C-reactive protein.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the impact of blood glucose level on the recurrence of liver cancer after laparoscopic surgery. Methods The clinical data of 98 patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma from January 2012 to January 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated by laparoscopic radical resection of hepatocellular carcinoma. Patients were divided into elevated blood glucose group (n = 23) and control group (n = 75) according to whether the fasting blood glucose was ≥6.1 mmol/L. The recurrence of liver cancer in 1 year and 2 years after operation was compared. The factors influencing the recurrence of liver cancer were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis. Results The recurrence rates were 47.82% and 21.33% respectively in the patients with elevated blood glucose and the control group. The recurrence rates were 73.91% and 36.00%respectively in the 2-year postoperative patients with blood glucose and 1 year and 2 years. The recurrence rate was higher than that of the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Logistic multivariate analysis showed that fasting blood glucose was high, Child-Pugh grade B, intraoperative blood transfusion, lymphatic invasion, high clinical pathology stage, postoperative alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) high, no postoperative adjuvant therapy (P < 0.05). Conclusion The recurrence rate of patients with elevated liver cancer after laparoscopic surgery is high, and fasting blood glucose is high, Child-Pugh grade is B grade, blood transfusion is high, there is lymphatic invasion, high clinical pathology stage after AFP high, no postoperative adjuvant therapy for its postoperative recurrence of risk factors, should strengthen the monitoring of high-risk patients, reduce postoperative recurrence rate.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation NIPPV in treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with acute exacerbation of respiratory failure. Methods From April 2014 to January 2015, 80 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and acute exacerbation of respiratory failure in our hospital were enrolled in this study. The patients received anti-infectious, antispasmodic, expectorant, correct electrolyte imbalance and symptomatic and supportive cure. BiPAP Symchrony ventilator was applied in the patients in the treatment group, and low flow nasal catheter ventilation therapy was given to patients in the control group. The following parameters were observed and compared: (1)The clinical efficacy of two groups of patients; (2) RR, PaO2, PaCO2, pH changes of patients before and at 2, 24 hours after ventilation therapy. (3) Intubation and mechanical ventilation, mortality, average length of stay and complications that occur during treatment. Results After treatment, the total effective rate of patients in the treatment group was significantly higher than that of patients in the control group (P < 0.05). At the end of treatment, RR, PaO2, PaCO2, pH changes, aeration at 2 h, 24 h post ventilation of patients in the treatment group improved significantly (P<0.05). The intubation and mechanical ventilation rate, mean hospital stay of patients in the treatment group were significantly shorter than theose of patients in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion To patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and acute exacerbation of respiratory failure, NIPPV can improve clinical outcomes, improve the patient′s oxygen partial pressure and oxygen saturation, shorter hospital stays, inhibit the rates of mechanical ventilation.
