ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the difference of the disease progression in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with different muscle mass levels and the influence of related factors on the disease progression. Methods A total of 308 newly diagnosed patients with COPD from February 2021 to February 2022 were selected for this study. All patients were below moderate COPD. The patients were divided into two groups according to their muscle mass levels: sarcopenia group (98 cases) and control group (210 cases). The diagnostic criteria for sarcopenia were based on sarcopenia diagnostic thresholds: RSMI 2 in men and 2 for women. All subjects were followed up for 4 months to observe the progress of the patient's condition. The correlation between the muscle mass level and pulmonary function level, as well as the results of 6-minute walking test and CAT score was evaluated, and the influence of muscle mass level on the patient's disease progress was analyzed. At the same time, the potential influence of related factors (body fat rate, vitamin D level, etc.) on the condition of patients with different muscle mass levels was discussed. SPSS 19.0 software was used to perform statistical analysis. Results Under the same treatment intervention, the baseline and follow-up lung function improvement levels of patients in the sarcopenia group were lower than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). At the same time, the baseline and follow-up 6-minute walk test results of the patients in the sarcopenia group were also worse than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Further correlation analysis was carried out between the patient's muscle mass level and the post-treatment pulmonary function indicators and 6MWD test level. The results showed that the muscle mass level was positively correlated with several pulmonary function indicators (FEV1, FEV1% predict) and 6MWD (both P<0.05). Considering the possible influence of other factors on the control and progress of the patient's condition, the present study used follow-up CAT score results to distinguish the prognosis of the patient's condition improvement, and used improvement and non-improvement as dependent variables to analyze the influence of various potential influencing factors. The results of regression model analysis showed that lower baseline muscle mass, women, lower body fat percentage, and lower vitamin D level were the main risk factors. Conclusion Under the same treatment condition, COPD patients with different muscle mass levels improve more slowly when complicated with sarcopenia and have poor prognosis. Women, lower body fat percentage and lower vitamin D level are potential risk factors for poor prognosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the relationship between body muscle mass and body mass index of school-age children and their growth differences in different seasons. Methods A total of 526 cases of preschool children who came to Hengshui People's Hospital for examination from June 2018 to June 2020 were selected as observation objects, including 300 males and 226 females, aged 6-11 years old, with an average age of (8.2 years ±0.2 years). According to the body mass index (BMI), children are divided into normal body weight, overweight weight and obese groups. According to the season, preschool children were divided into four groups, spring group, summer group, autumn group, and winter group, with 131 cases in each group. The physique of preschool children was tested, and the serum 25(OH)D was detected at the same time, the body muscle mass was measured by the bioelectrical impedance method, and the whole body muscle mass index was calculated. Multi-factor linear regression was used to analyze the relationship between vitamin D nutritional status and muscle mass index ; To study the average vitamin D content of children and the differences in different seasons. Results There were 396 children with normal BMI, 90 were overweight, and 40 were obese. The children's normal weight, overweight, and obesity were divided into groups. According to the increase in BMI, the normal vitamin level group, overweight group, and obesity group also decreased, and the difference was statistically significant (P0.05). Compared with the vitamin D deficiency and deficiency groups, the number of children with sufficient vitamin D is also increasing, and the children with sufficient vitamin D have a fixed-point visit to the MMI. According to the analysis results, it is observed that there is a statistically significant difference in vitamin D nutrition and body muscle mass levels (P<0.05). The serum 25(OH)D levels of children in summer and autumn were significantly higher than those in spring and winter, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The body muscle mass and body mass index of preschool children have a significant relationship with 25(OH)D. When 25(OH)D is sufficient, higher body muscle mass can be obtained and the body mass index can be decreased. The growth difference in different seasons is manifested in the higher 25(OH)D in summer, which is more conducive to the growth and development of preschool children.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To prepare a pH fluorescence probe based on styrylcyanine dyes for live cell imaging.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The Probe 1 was prepared by reaction of 4-pyridinecarboxaldehyde with 1,1,2-trimethylbenz[e]indole. The influence of pH on the fluorescent properties was examined, and the cell viability was examined using cell counting kit-8. The Probe 1 was used as a pH fluorescence probe in living cell.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Probe 1 emitted green fluorescence under neutral and basic conditions but orange fluorescence under acid condition. Probe 1 selectively stained the cytoplasmic regions of living cells without significantly affecting the cell viability.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The pH-sensitive fluorescent probe prepared based on styrylcyanine possesses good ability of cell membrane permeation for live cell fluorescent imaging.</p>

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the relationship of serum adiponectin (APN) with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and carotid athcrosclerosis (AS),and to observe the change of serum adiponectin levels in patients with hypertension and obesity.Methods Patients with essential hypertension (50 cases) were divided into simple hypertension group (23 cases) and hypertension with obesity group(27 cases),and 45 normotensives were divided into control group (24 cases) and simple obesity group (21 cases).The levels of serum adiponectin were determined by enzyme immunoassay.Common carotid artery intima-media thickness (CCA-IMT),carotid artery diameter (CADIA) and left ventricular relevant index were measured by color doppler ultrasonography,and left ventricular mass index (LVMI) was calculated.Results In control group,simple obesity group,simple hypertension group and hypertension with obesity group,serum APN levels were decreased by turn,CADIA reduced gradually,LVMI values were increased by turn,CCA-IMT values were increased gradually (F=28.34,10.26,36.52,14.73,all P<0.01).Correlation analysis showed that serum APN levels were significantly negatively correlated with LVMI and CCA-IMT(r=-0.870,-0.710,both P<0.01),and were positively related with CADIA (r=0.742,P<0.00).APN,SBP and BMI were the main influencing factors on left ventricular hypertrophy (β =-0.909,0.126,-0.053).Conclusions The presence of both hypertension and obesity may play a synergistic role in accelerating the process of left ventricular hypertrophy and atherosclerosis.Lower APN levels and/or rising BMI may accelerate occurrence and development of LVH and AS in aged patients with hypertension and obesity.
