ABSTRACT

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, recurrent, non-specific inflammatory disease with unknown etiology. The vagus nerve and its cholinergic receptors, including nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and muscarinic acetylcholine receptor, are involved in inhibiting intestinal inflammation, regulating intestinal epithelial barrier permeability, regulating intestinal stem cell proliferation and differentiation, and play an important role in the pathogenesis of IBD. Whether there is a correlation between intestinal microbiota dysbiosis and vagus nerve structure remodeling,signal transduction changing remains to be explored. The therapeutic strategies targeting the vagus nerve and its cholinergic receptors including vagus nerve stimulation and nicotine are still being studied. This article reviewed the progress of research on vagus nerve and its cholinergic receptors in IBD.

ABSTRACT

Objective To assess the influence of metabolic syndrome(MS)on the success rate of catheter ablation for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF)in the elderly. Methods A retrospective study included a total of 221 aged patients with AF who underwent AF ablation for the first time. The patients were divided into two groups :an MS group(n=72)and a control group(without MS)(n=149) . The MS group had a mean age of (67.1 ± 5.2) years ;the control group had a mean age of (68.3 ± 5.7) years. Forty-six patients in the MS group and 105 patients in the control group experienced paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Prognoses in two groups were compared at the end of the follow-up. Results At the end of the follow-up ,the success rates of the procedure in the MS group and the control group were 37.5%(n = 27)and 51.7%(n = 77) ,respectively (χ2= 3.917 ,P = 0.049) .Recurrence happened in 19 patients of the MS group and 28 patients of the control group ,and they underwent a repeat ablation. The overall success rates after the last ablation in the two groups were 51.4%(n=37)and 65.8%(n=98) ,respectively (χ2=4.224 ,P=0.034).In the multivariable model adjusted for risk factors ,MS(HR=1.42 ,95% CI :1.11-1.64 ,P=0.033)and left atrial diameter(HR= 1.83 ,95% CI :1.27-3.19 , P = 0.017 ) were independent predictors for recurrence. Conclusions MS can affect the success rate of catheter ablation for AF in elderly patients and the effect remains even after the procedures are repeated

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To evaluate the efficacy and safety of three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping system for catheter ablation of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardiain (PSVT) children.@*Methods@#Clinical data from 187 children with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia undergoing radiofrequency catheter ablation in our department between January 2012 and April 2016 were analyzed. Among the patients, 91 cases were treated with traditional two-dimensional X-ray radiofrequency ablation, 96 cases were treated with radiofrequency ablation guided by three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping system. Postoperative electrocardiogram and echocardiography follow-up was performed at 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 months. The success rate, recurrence rate, complication rate, operation time and amount of X-ray exposure were compared between the two groups. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to analyze the PSVT-free survival rate of the patients between the 2 groups.@*Results@#The mean follow-up time was (739±92) days. The success rate (95.8%(92/96) vs. 94.5%(86/91), P=0.912), recurrence rate (5.4%(5/92) vs. 4.7%(4/86), P=0.807), complication rate (4.2%(4/96) vs. 5.5%(5/91), P=0.379), operation time ((73±31)min vs. (79±36)min, P=0.124) were similar between the two groups. However, X-ray exposure time ((8.1±2.9)min vs. (21.3±8.4)min, P=0.026), amount of X-ray ((23±11)mGy vs. (58±23)mGy, P=0.013) were significantly lower in the three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping system group than in the traditional two-dimensional X-ray radio frequency ablation group. PSVT-free survival rate was similar between the two groups (χ2=0.060, P=0.807) .@*Conclusion@#Three-dimensional electroanatomical mapping system is safe and effective for radiofrequency ablation of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia in children, and can significantly reduce the amount of radiation as compared to the traditional two-dimensional X-ray radiofrequency ablation.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the genetic cause for two familial Angelman syndrome cases and correlation between the clinical phenotypes and their genetic basis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Karyotyping analysis and microarray assay were carried out to exclude chromosome anomalies and uniparental disomy. The UBE3A gene was analyzed for potential point mutations, deletions, insertions and splice site mutations. Reverse transcription PCR was used to evaluate splicing mutation of the RNA transcripts.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>DNA sequencing showed the proband of family 1 has carried a novel maternal UBE3A splice acceptor site mutation, resulting in a guanine-to-cytosine transversion (IVS15-1G>C). Reverse transcription PCR revealed the proband and his mother both carried heterozygous mutant transcripts with loss of 54 and 59 nucleotides in exon 16, respectively. The proband displayed severe mental retardation, ataxia, seizures and inappropriate laughter. The siblings of family 2 has carried a novel maternal missense mutation in exon 16 of the UBE3A gene (c.2540C>T). She also presented with mental retardation, absent speech, mild ataxia and inappropriate laughter.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The novel IVS15-1G>C and c.2540 C>T mutations of the UBE3A gene probably underlie the AS in the two families. Compared with small-scale mutations, larger fragments mutations can produce more severe phenotypes.</p>

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the impact and mechanism of miR-200 b on intestinal epithelial tight junction. Methods The negative-lentivirus and human-miR-200 b-lentivirus were employed to infect the Caco-2 cell thus establishing two stable cell lines which were then stimulated by 10 ng/mL human tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) to establish the model of the intestinal epithelial injury. Those Caco-2 cells were divided into NC, NC+TNF-α, 200b, and 200b+TNF-αgroups.The tight junction permeability was detected by transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) and Fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled dextran (FITC-dextran). The protein alterations myosin light chain kinase (MLCK)/phosphorylated myosin light chain (P-MLC) pathways were measured by Western blot analysis. Results Compared to NC group, NC+TNF-αgroup had lower TEER, higher FITC-dextran, and up-regulated expressions of MLCK and P-MLC proteins (P

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To determine the genetic cause for two mentally retarded patients from a family, and to correlate their genotypes with clinical phenotypes.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Routine G-banded karyotyping analysis was performed. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) microarray analysis was used to detect microdeletions or microduplications. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to ascertain the origin of chromosomal abnormalities.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Both proband and his uncle showed a normal karyotype. SNP microarray analysis has identified a 1.147-Mb microdeletion at 16p13.3 (85 880-1 233 819) and a 2.948-Mb microduplication at 19q13.42-q13.43 (56 008 597-58 956 816). FISH analysis confirmed that the patient has inherited a derivative chromosome 16 from his father. The proband presented with mental retardation, reduced speech, and facial dysmorphism (hypertelorism, down-slanting palpebral fissure, low nasal bridge and wide gap between front teeth). His uncle presented with a milder phenotype with mental retardation.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Both the proband and his uncle have carried a chromosome microdeletion at 16p and microduplication at 19q, which were originated from their fathers carrying a balanced t(16;19) translocation. Combined SNP microarray analysis and FISH assay are useful for the detection the copy number variations and delineation of potential structural changes, which may help with evaluation of recurrence risk for this family.</p>

ABSTRACT

Inflammatory bowel disease( IBD)is a chronic and nonspecific intestinal inflammatory disease caused by multiple factors such as environment,genetic susceptibility and immune disturbance. Autophagy plays an important role in cellular homeostasis and immune. Autophagy abnormalities may be involved in the pathogenesis of IBD. Genome-wide association studies(GWAS)have provided compelling evidence that autophagy related genes,including ATG16L1,IRGM and NOD2,are significantly associated with IBD. This article reviewed the abnormal autophagy in pathogenesis of IBD.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the outcome of AF ablation in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) related tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome. Methods Fifty consecutive patients with paroxysmal AF and prolonged symptomatic sinus pauses on termination of AF referred to our hospital for ablation were evaluated (ABL group). In another 61 patients, paroxysmal AF was treated with anti-arrhythmic drug and a pacemaker was implanted due to AF related tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome. These patients were used as control (PM group). Results A total of 50 patients in the ABL group fulfilled Class I indication for pacemaker implantation at baseline but they actually underwent AF ablation. Re-evaluation at the end of follow-up showed that 47 (94%) patients no longer needed a pacemaker (Class III indication) because of free from AF with no recurrences of pre-syncopal or syncopal events or documented sinus pauses after the last procedure. More patients in the PM group were on AADs (PM 42.6%, ABL 6.0%, P < 0.001) while sinus rhythm maintenance at the end of follow-up was remarkably higher in the ABL group (82.0%vs. 21.3%in PM group, P < 0.001). The total rates of cardiac related re-hospitalization was not significantly different between the two groups, but hospitalizations caused by tachyarrhythmia was significantly higher in the PM group (PM group 14.8%, ABL group 2.0%, P=0.020).The embolic events, heart failure and death rate were not significantly different between the two groups. Conclusions In patients with paroxysmal AF related tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome, AF ablation seems to be superior to a strategy of pacing plus AAD. Pacemaker implantation can be waived in the majority of patients after a successful ablation.

ABSTRACT

Objectives To address whether menopause affects outcome of catheter ablation (CA) for atrial fibrillation (AF) by comparing the safety and long-term outcome of a single-procedure in pre-and post-menopausal women. Methods A total of 743 female patients who underwent a single CA procedure of drug-refractory AF were retrospectively analyzed. The differences in clinical presentation and outcomes of CA for AF between the pre-menopausal women (PreM group, 94 patients, 12.7%) and the post-menopausal women (PostM group, 649 patients, 87.3%) were assessed. Results The patients in the PreM group were younger (P<0.001) and less likely to have hypertension (P<0.001) and diabetes (P=0.005) than those in the PostM group. The two groups were similar with regards to the proportion of concomitant mitral valve regurgitation coronary artery disease, left atrium dimensions, and left ventricular ejection fraction. The overall rate of complica-tions related to AF ablation was similar in both groups (P=0.385). After 43 (16-108) months of follow-up, the success rate of ablation was 54.3%in the PreM group and 54.2%in the PostM group (P=0.842). The overall freedom from atrial tachyarrhythmia recurrence was simi-lar in both groups. Menopause was not found to be an independent predictive factor of the recurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmia. Conclusions The long-term outcomes of single-procedure CA for AF are similar in pre-and post-menopausal women. Results indicated that CA of AF appears to be as safe and effective in pre-menopausal women as in post-menopausal women.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been proposed as a novel marker of systemic inflammation and oxidative stress. The objective of this study was to ascertain the relationship between levels of NLR and recurrence of lone atrial fibrillation (AF) after catheter ablation.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 379 lone AF patients who underwent catheter ablation were enrolled in the study. The NLR before and after catheter ablation was determined. Cox regression analyses were used to estimate the relationship between NLR and the recurrence of lone AF.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>After a mean follow-up of (30.5 ± 5.3) months, 124 (32.7%) patients had AF recurrences. The patients who developed AF recurrence had a higher postablation NLR (post-NLR) than patients with no recurrence (5.74 ± 1.55 vs. 4.66 ± 1.27, P < 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that post-NLR (hazard ratio (HR) 1.514, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.364-1.680, P < 0.001), left atrium diameter (HR 1.035, 95% CI 1.001-1.071, P = 0.04) and body mass index (HR 1.028, 95% CI 1.002-1.054, P = 0.03) were independent predictors of AF recurrence. Using a cut-off level of 5.15, post-NLR predicted AF recurrence with a sensitivity of 73% and specificity of 67%.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Our results indicate that an elevated post-NLR is associated with a high rate of lone AF recurrence. A simple measurement of NLR may help us to identify high-risk patients who need pharmacologic intervention to prevent recurrence.</p>

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the management and outcome of the cardiac tamponade patients during the ablation procedure using two different anticoagulation strategies. Methods All the patients developed tamponade during the ablation procedure were enrolled from January 2007 to December 2013 in our center. In group 1, warfarin was discontinued 3 to 5 days before the procedure and low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) was administered subcutaneously until ablation procedure day. In group 2, warfarin was not discontinued and the international normalized ratio INR was to maintained between 2 and 3. Results There were 27 patients (0.6%) developed cardiac tamponade out of a total 4487 patients received ablation in our center. The baseline clinical characteristics including age, left atrium, the heparin dose and ACT during the procedure had no signiifcant difference between the groups, except that the INR was higher in the group 2 (0.9±0.1 vs. 2.3±0.5, P0.999). The median hospital day was similar in the 2 groups [(9.6±3.3) d vs. (12.1±4.5) d, P=0.167]. There were no other serious complications and no hospital death. Conclusions Non-discontinuation of warfarin during peri-procedural catheter ablation of AF is not signiifcantly different to bridging with LMWH in the management and outcome of acute cardiac tamponade.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the correlation of interleukin(IL)-12B gene single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)rs6887695 with clinical phenotypes(including age at onset,family history,clinical types,gender)of psoriasis vulgaris in Chinese Han population.Methods This study recruited 575 patients with psoriasis vulgaris and 1403 healthy controls.DNA samples were obtained from these subjects.PCR with Taqman fluorescent probe(ABI 7900 system)was performed to analyze the genotype of SNP rs6887695 in IL-12B gene.Statistical analysis was carried out by using the software SPSS 14.0,and Chi-square test was conducted to compare the frequency of the SNP rs6887695 genotypes and alleles between the patients and controls as well as between patients with different clinical phenotypes of psoriasis.Results The frequency of GG,GC and CC genotype of the SNP rs6887695 was 42.61%,45.39% and 12.0% respectively in the patients,compared to 34.42%,47.83% and 17.75% in the healthy controls(x2 =16.31,P < 0.01);the frequency of G and C allele of the SNP rs6887695 was 65.30% and 34.70% respectively in the patients,compared to 58.34% and 41.66% respectively in the healthy controls(x2 =16.54,P<0.01).Significant differences were observed in the distribution of genotypes and alleles of the SNP rs6887695 between patients with chronic plaque psoriasis(n =543)and those with acute guttate psoriasis(n =32,x2 =18.11,12.19,both P < 0.01).Increased frequency of G allele and GG genotype of the SNP rs6887695 were noted in the patients with psoriasis vulgaris compared with the healthy controls,and in the patients with plaque psoriasis compared with those with guttate psoriasis.However,there was no statistical difference in the distribution of SNP rs6887695 genotypes or alleles between 540 patients with adult onset psoriasis and 35 patients with child onset psoriasis,between 102 patients with family history and 440 patients without family history,or between 341 male patients and 234 female patients(all P > 0.05).Conclusions The IL-12B SNP rs6887695 may be associated with the susceptibility to psoriasis vulgaris in Chinese Han population,especially with the susceptibility to plaque psoriasis,but seems unassociated with the age at onset,family history or gender of patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the characteristics of the blood glucose fluctuation in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods The 92 elderly patients with T2DM (the elderly group) and 58 young and middle-aged patients with T2DM (the non-elderly group) were monitored using the continuous glucose monitoring system(CGMS). The characteristics of glucose profiles of the two different age groups, and of the different glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level groups in the elderly were comparatively analyzed. Results (1)There was no significant difference in HbA1c level between the elderly group and the non-elderly group. Compared with the non-elderly group, the elderly group showed the increases in blood glucose fluctuant coefficient [BGFC, (2.68±1.00) mmol/L vs. (2.12±0.74) mmol/L, t=-3.691, P<0.001], in postprandial glucose excursion (PPGE) of breakfast and supper [(5.96±2.47) mmol/L vs. (5.11±2.44) mmol/L, t=-2.058, P<0.05; (5.17±2.15) mmol/L vs. (4.16±2.28) mmol/L, t=-2.730, P<0.01], in the time to postprandial glucose peak of breakfast and lunch [(112.5±29.7) min vs. (97.0±27.2) min, t=-3.225, P<0.01; (140.0±39.7) min vs. (118.1±42.6) min, t=-3.195, P<0.01], in the frequency of hypoglycemia (26.3% vs. 5.5%, P<0.05), and showed the largest amplitude of glycemic excursions [LAGE, (9.66±2.48) mmol/L vs.(8.40±3.13) mmol/L, t=-2.720, P<0.01]. (2)In the elderly, along with decreased HbA1c, the incidence of hypoglycaemia increased (P<0.05); And along with increased HbA1c, the amplitude of blood glucose fluctuation increased. There were significant differences in BGFC, PPGE of breakfast and lunch, and LAGE among different HbA1c level groups (P<0.01, P<0.05, P<0.05, P<0.001). (3)HbA1c was positively correlated with FBG, mean blood glucose (MBG), percentage of time at glycemia (PT7.8, PT11.1), the lowest blood glucose (LBG), the highest blood glucose (HBG), BGFC, PPGE and LAGE (r=0.899-0.289, all P<0.001). Multiple stepwise regression analysis indicated that MBG, FBG and PT7.8 was the independent influential factor of HbA1c (adjusted R2=0.807, P<0.05). Conclusions The elderly patients with T2DM are at a particularly high risk for postprandial hyperglycemia and nocturnal hypoglycemic episodes, CGMS could show glucose fluctuation characters of T2DM patients diurnally, and provide a clinical basis for reasonable therapy.
