ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the characteristics of health-related physical fitness of patients with chronic neck pain, and the relationship between neck pain and physical fitness. MethodsFrom Match to June, 2020, 30 healthy controls and 30 patients with chronic neck pain in Dalian University of Technology were included. They were assessed with Neck Disability Index (NDI) and Visual Analog Scale for pain (VAS). The body composition, grip strength (dominant), shoulder joint flexibility, cardiopulmonary endurance and neck muscle endurance of all the participants were measured. ResultsThe content of standardized subcutaneous fat was more, and the trunk muscle content was less in the patients than in the healthy controls, while the standardized grip strength, endurance of neck flexor and extensor, right shoulder flexibility, absolute maximum oxygen uptake were all poorer (|t| > 2.088, P < 0.05). The score of VAS correlated (P < 0.05) with the score of NDI score (r = 0.407), grip strength (r = -0.406), endurance of neck extensor (r = -0.384), right shoulder joint flexibility (r = -0.551) and absolute value of maximal oxygen uptake (r = -0.510). ConclusionHealth-related physical fitness has been impaired for patients with chronic neck pain, and correlates with the intensity of pain.

ABSTRACT

Normal human blood pressure has a unique "dipper type" rhythm, but various pathological factors will lead to abnormal nighttime blood pressure decline, seriously damage the target organs such as the heart, brain and kidneys, and significantly increase the incidence of cardiovascular events. Therefore, it is necessary to pay sufficient attention to rhythm disorder of blood pressure and intervene early. Modern Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) mostly understands the changes of rhythm of blood pressure from the view of the unity of nature and man, yin-yang theory and the theory of meridian flow, and study the syndrome distribution and TCM constitution law of rhythm disorder of blood pressure by combining TCM syndrome differentiation method and TCM constitution theory. TCM treatment can restore blood pressure rhythm and improve clinical symptoms and sleep quality of patients.

ABSTRACT

Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a kind of neuropsychiatric syndrome basing on metabolic disorder caused by acute or chronic liver dysfunction or abnormal portosystemic shunt. It is one of the common complications and causes of death in various end-stage liver diseases. The clinical manifestations of patients with HE can vary from personality changes, behavior abnormalities to disturbance of consciousness and coma. The pathogenesis of HE is complex. Theories about ammonia neurotoxicity and alterations in neurotransmitters have been widely accepted. Roles of inflammation, gut microbiota, premature astrocyte senescence, impaired cerebral microcirculation, hemichannel dysfunction, and bile acid also attract much attention. In this review article, the research progress on pathogenesis of HE was briefly summarized.

ABSTRACT

Background: The occurrence of gastrointestinal symptoms in cirrhotic patients with gastroesophageal varices (GOV) after endoscopic treatment is obvious, and the role of gastric myoelectrical activity (GMA) and autonomic nerve function imbalance in the development of gastrointestinal symptoms has not been clarified. Aims: To investigate the changes of GMA and autonomic nerve function in cirrhotic patients with GOV after endoscopic treatment. Methods: Twenty-five cirrhotic patients with GOV from May 2019 to October 2019 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were enrolled, and 10 patients with gastric polyp were served as controls. Electrogastrogram (EGG) and heart rate variability (HRV) were detected before the operation, 1 day after the operation and 5 days after the operation in GOV group. For the gastric polyp group, EGG and HRV were detected before the operation and 1 day after the operation. Changes of GMA and autonomic nerve function were compared between the two groups. Results: No significant differences in GMA and autonomic nerve function were found between GOV group and gastric polyp group before and 1 day after the operation (P>0.05). LF, LF/HF were significantly increased 1 day after the operation in GOV group (P0.05). There were no significant differences in GMA and autonomic nerve function 1 day after the operation compared with pre-operation in gastric polyp group (P>0.05). Compared with Child-Pugh A group, Child-Pugh B group had more obvious GMA abnormalities, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions: In cirrhotic patients with GOV, the percentage of bradygastria and the sympathetic activity increased, and the vagal activity decreased 1 day after the operation. These results suggest that GMA and autonomic nerve dysfunction may be related to the gastrointestinal symptoms after endoscopic treatment.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To explore the association of the glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level at admission with 90 days functional outcome in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).@*Methods@#Patients admitted to the Department of Neurology, Tongji Hospital from January to December 2017 were prospectively and continuously enrolled in this study. Clinical data were collected at admission and functional outcomes 90 days after ICH were assessed by using the modified RANKIN scale. Univariate and multivariate conditional logistic regression models were constructed. Patients were divided into four groups according to the quartile of HbA1c values. The median value of HbA1c in each group was taken as the substitute value and P for trend was calculated. The logistic regression model was fitted by restricted cubic splines to investigate the association between HbA1c level and outcome of ICH.@*Results@#A total of 345 patients with ICH were enrolled, including 214 with favorable outcomes and 131 with poor outcomes (99 severe disability cases and 32 deaths). The risk of poor 90 days outcomes was significantly associated with HbA1c level at admission indicated by multivariate logistic regression analysis, and the P for trend test was <0.001 (middle-level group vs. low-level group: OR=2.33, 95%CI: 1.07-5.07; high-level group vs. low-level group: OR=2.52, 95%CI: 1.12-5.64; extremely high-level group vs. low-level group: OR=6.80, 95%CI: 3.01-15.34). Results from the restricted cubic spline showed that there was a linear correlation between HbA1c level at admission and poor 90 days outcomes of ICH (χ2=14.81, P<0.001; non- linear test: P=0.118). Compared with patients with HbA1c level of 6.5%, the risk of poor outcomes in patients with HbA1c level of <6.5% decreased linearly with the decrease in HbA1c level at admission, and the risk in patients with HbA1c level >6.5% was higher but not significantly.@*Conclusion@#There was correlation between high HbA1c level at admission and 90 days poor outcome of ICH. High HbA1c level is an independent prediction indicator for ICH.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the microRNA ( miRNA ) expression level of peripheral blood mononuclear cell ( PBMC) in autoimmune diabetes mellitus ( ADM) which includes type 1 diabetes mellitus ( T1DM) and latent autoimmune diabetes in adults ( LADA ) , T2DM patients, and matched healthy individuals. Methods Patients of T1DM, LADA, and T2DM were recruited in the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2015 to December 2016. The subjects were divided into two groups. The first group was used for high-throughput screening of differentially expressed microRNAs. The second group was used to validate the expression of miR-142-5p and miR-143-3p by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Results (1)The different miRNA expression patterns of PBMC were found among T1DM patients, LADA patients, T2DM patients, and health individuals. ( 2) Compared with T2DM patients and healthy controls, LADA and T1DM patients had down-regulated PBMC miR-142-5p expression, and up-regulated miR-143-3p expression. (3)RT-qPCR validation showed that the expression of miR-142-5p in LADA patients was significantly lower than that in T2DM patients (0.30±0.24 vs 1.33 ± 1.29, P<0.05) . The expression of miR-143-3p in T1DM and LADA was higher than that in T2DM and health individuals. However, no significant differences were found. Conclusion The miRNA expression patterns are different in the PBMC of T1DM patients, LADA patients, T2DM patients, and healthy individuals; the abnormal expressions of miR-142-5p and miR-143-3p may participate in the development of ADM by affecting apoptosis and immune cell differentiation.
