ABSTRACT

Objective@#To explore the prevalence of chronic diseases and related risk factors in Shaanxi province.@*Methods@#Multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling was used to collect the sample from permanent residents in 10 national surveillance points in Shaanxi province in 2015. Behavioral risk factors (smoking, drinking, diet and physical activity) were investigated by face-to-face interviews and biological risk factors (BMI, blood pressure, blood glucose and blood lipid) were collected by physical measurements and laboratory tests. Designed weight, no response weight and post hierarchical weight were taken into account in the data analysis. Binary logistic regression models were used to examine the pair-wise associations among 8 risk factors.@*Results@#A total of 6 174 persons were included in the analysis. The following weighted prevalence were noticed in Shaanxi province in 2015, that including current smoking as 28.19%, harmful use of alcohol as 6.20%, inadequate intake of vegetables and fruits as 55.62%, physical inactivity as 19.56%, overweight and obesity as 46.82%, hypertension as 31.12%, raised fasting blood glucose as 4.27%, and raised total cholesterol as 20.96%. Eight risk factors were found to be associated with each other. The mean numbers of risk factors were 2.41 per male and 1.85 per female, 1.94 per urban resident and 2.28 per rural resident.@*Conclusions@#Risk factors for chronic diseases among adults aged 18 or older were more than the national levels in Shaanxi province in 2015. Male and rural residents presented more risk factors than their counterparts. Correlations between risk factors implied that a combined package of interventions was needed to reduce these risk factors.

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the influence of ultra-shortwave (USW) irradiation on infarct volume and Ca2+-ATPase (SPCA) secretion after brain ischemia and reperfusion.Methods Eighty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a sham operation group (n=8),a model group (n=36) and a USW group (n=36).The animal model of middle cerebral artery ischemia and reperfusion (MCAO/R) was established using the suture method in the rats of the model and USW groups,while the sham operation group was given the same operation but without inserting the thread plug.One day,3 days and 7 days after the intervention,12 rats were sacrificed and the infarct volumes and SPCA1 protein expression were measured using 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining and western blotting.Results No white infarcted tissue was found in the sham operation group.In the model and USW groups the volume of infarcted tissue decreased with time.Significantly less infarcted volume was observed in the USW group compared to the model group at each time point.The SPCA1 levels in the brain tissue were lower than in the sham operation group after one and 3 days of USW treatment,but they were significantly lower in the model group as well.As time went by,the average SPCA1 level increased significantly in the model and USW groups.A slightly higher SPCA1 level was observed in the USW group compared to the model group after one day of treatment,but with no significance.However,significant differences were found between them after 3 and 7 days of intervention.Conclusion Ultra-shortwave irradiation can protect against MCAO/R injury by decreasing the infarcted volume,which may be related to down-regulation of SPCA1,minimizing nerve cell apoptosis and promoting neural functional recovery,at least in rats.

ABSTRACT

One hundred and seventy six consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke who received intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator ( rt-PA ) in 4.5 hours from symptom onset during February 2009 to July 2013 were included in the study.Modified Rankin Scale was used to evaluate the recovery of neurological functions.Patients were divided into good ( 0 -1 ) or poor ( 2 -6 ) outcome groups according modified Rankin Scale score.Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to determine the differences of clinical data between the two groups.The age of patients with good outcome was significantly lower than that of poor outcome group [ ( 61.4 ±11.5 ) vs.( 69.0 ± 13.2) years,P =0.000].Compared to patients with poor outcomes, patients with good outcome group showed lower rate of diabetes [ 13%( 12/93 ) vs.29%( 24/83 ) , P =0.009 ] , lower blood glucose level [(5.05 ±0.97) vs.(5.83 ±1.72) mmol/L,P=0.020], higher uric acid level[(404.4 ±151.7) vs.(345.6 ±107.5) μmol/L,P=0.028],shorter onset to treatment time [(1.92 ±0.94) vs.(2.30 ±1.01) h, P=0.019],lower baseline National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score [(14.0 ±5.2) vs.(16.0 ± 6.2),P=0.025],lower systolic blood pressure level at 2 h[(140.8 ±18.3) vs.(149.0 ±18.9) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa),P=0.005]and 24 h [(137.6 ±21.9) vs.(147.1 ±17.4) mmHg,P=0.009] after thrombolysis.Logistic regression analysis showed that uric acid levels were not related to hemorrhagic transformation independently (P =0.172,OR =0.965,95%CI:0.917 -1.016), but were related to outcome independently (P=0.047,OR=0.957,95%CI:0.916-0.999).

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate whether chemokine like factor (CKLF)-like myelin and lympho-cyte and related proteins for vesicle trafficking and membrane link (MARVEL)transmembrane domain-containing protein 2 (CMTM2)is involved in spermatogenesis in varicocele induced sub-fertility rats and to discuss the possible mechanisms.Methods:Forty male SD rats (body weight:220 -330 g,age:6 -7 weeks)were randomly divided into 4 groups:varicocele for 4 weeks,varicocele for 12 weeks,sham operation for 4 weeks and sham operation for 12 weeks,with 10 rats in each group.These rats were intro-duced by partially ligating left kidney veins for the experimental groups,and the sham surgery groups as controls were executed with exactly the same surgery as in the experimental groups except for the ligation. The rats in control and experimental groups for 4 and 12 weeks were killed after laparotomy at the end of 4 and 12 weeks,respectively,the left testes and epididymis were taken out for counting the sperm,ob-serving the seminiferous tubule change and immunochemistry for CMTM2.The changes included sperm density and motility,the outer diameter and inner diameter change and the changes of epithelium and the CMTM2 expression in immunochemistry.Results:Compared with the control groups,the sperm density [(63.9 ±7.1)×106 /mL vs.(74.3 ±5.0)×106 /mL]and motility[(58.7% ±7.9%)vs.(66.1% ± 4.3%)]were reduced slightly in group of varicoele for 4 weeks,respectively (t =1.432,1.563;P =0.076,0.059,respectively ).Varicocele significantly caused a decrease in sperm concentration [(40.5 ±7.2)×106 /mL vs.(71.1 ±4.5)×106 /mL]and motility [(35.2% ±8.5%)vs.(63.4% ± 4.1%)]at 12 weeks,compared with the related sham groups (t =3.754,3.933;P =0.004,0.002, respectively).Additionally,testis CMTM2 exhibited the same disparity,that is,the CMTM2 protein ex-pression in varicocele group was significantly reduced,with the ratio of sham group to varicocele group at the end of 12 weeks 2.3 ±0.4 (t =1.978;P =0.039).In the evaluation of seminiferous tubules diame-ter,the external [(198.2 ±10.2)μm vs.(255.8 ±12.7)μm,t =2.125,P =0.003]and epithelium diameter [(54.1 ±1.5)μm vs.(75.5 ±4.1)μm,t =2.246,P =0.021]were decreased compared with the sham-related groups and previous varicocele groups.In all the varicocele groups,all types of sperm motility decreased compared with the related sham-operated group (P <0.05).Conclusion:This study suggests varicocele has a detrimental effect on CMTM2 levels and decreases spermatogonia cell number,seminiferous tubules diameter,and sperm indices.CMTM2 is associated with sperm changes in rats with varicocele,and further studies are needed to study the mechanism.

ABSTRACT

@#Objective To investigate the effect of Ser473-Akt phosphorylation in the protection of atorvastatin to cerebral ischemia-re-perfusion (I/R) injury in rats. Methods Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal group (n=10), sham group (n=10), I/R group (n=10) and intervention group (n=10). A model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats was establishied, with ischemia for 2 hours and reperfusion for 72 hours. The normal group and the sham group received no injury. I/R group was administered with normal saline only, and the intervention group received atorvastatin 10 mg/kg prepared with normal saline at palinesthesia, 24 and 48 hours after reperfu-sion. All rats were sacrificed 72 hours after reperfusion. HE staining and TUNEL staining were performed in the brain specimens. The ex-pression of Akt and Ser473-Akt in the prefrontal cortex of the brain were detected with Western blotting. Results Compared with I/R group, 72 hours after reperfusion, the damage of nerve cells significantly lessened in the intervention group;the apoptosis positive cells significant-ly reduced in the intervention group (t=-6.014, P<0.001). The expression of Ser473-Akt in prefrontal cortex was higher in I/R group than in the normal group and the sham group (t>20.327, P<0.001), and was higher in the intervention group than in I/R group (t=3.649, P=0.007). Conclusion The Ser473-Akt phosphorylation plays an important role in the protection of atorvastatin in nerve cell through anti-apoptosis of nerve cells, and reducing cerebral I/R injury.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the subcellular localization of ataxin-3 and the effect of polyglutamine (polyQ) expansion mutation on the morphology of mitochondrion, golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Transient transfection was employed to build cell models expressing wild-type or mutant ataxin-3 proteins. Indirect immunofluorescence was applied to identify markers of organelle membrane. The results were observed under a laser scanning confocal microscope.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>No co-localization was observed for ataxin-3 protein and mitochondrial marker TOM20, but the percentage of cells with mitochondrial fragmentation has increased in cells expressing mutant ataxin-3 (P<0.05). No co-localization was observed for ataxin-3 protein and golgi marker GM130, and mutant ataxin-3 did not cause golgi fragmentation. Wide type and polyQ-expanded ataxin-3 both showed partial co-localization with ER marker calnexin. The latter showed more overlap with calnexin, and the overlapping signals were mostly located in the places where aggregates were situated.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>PolyQ-expanded ataxin-3 protein may indirectly affect the integrity of mitochondria, but may cause no effect on the structure and functions of golgi apparatus. Endoplasmic reticulum may be another place where extended ataxin-3 protein can induce cytotoxicity in addition to the nucleus.</p>

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the relationship between C1773T polymorphism of LDL receptor gene (LDLR) and cerebral hemorrhage and the impact of C1773T polymorphism of LDLR on the levels of serum lipids in Chinese Han in Changsha, Hunan province. Methods Two hundred seventy-three cerebral hemorrhage patients and 140 normal controls were recruited in the present study. The C1773T polymorphism of LDLR was analyzed by SNaPshot and direct DNA sequencing. The triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels were examined using oxidase method. Results The CC, CT and TT genotype frequencies of LDLR polymorphism were 0.703/0.278/0.019、0.707/0.250/0.043 and the allele C and T frequencies of LDLR polymorphism in the cerebral hemorrhage group and the control group were 0.842/0.158,0.832/0.168 respectively. The differences in genotype and allele frequencies of LDLR polymorphism were no significant between cerebral hemorrhage group and the control group (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the levels of lipids among the CC, CT and TT genotype in either cerebral hemorrhage group or the control group (P>0.05). Conclusions The LDLR-C1773T polymorphism may not be associated with cerebral hemorrhage nor be related to hyperlipemia in Chinese Han in Changsha.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Quality of life, which is induced as a completely evaluating system to reflect new healthy viewpoints and medical patterns, plays a key role in supplying traditional therapy and evaluating rehabilitation efficacy in occupational injury.OBJECTIVE : To analyze the effects of occupational injury on quality of life in mining area of Tongling, Anhui.DESIGN: Case contrast questionnaire, Logistic single factor analysis and multiple factors analysis.SETTING: Workers General Hospital of Tongling Nonferrous Metal Group; Mining Safety Office of Tongling Nonferrous Metal Company.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 234 subjects with occupational injury were selected from four subgroups of Tongling Nonferrous Metal Company from January 2000 to December 2005 and regarded as the occupational injury group.Injured grade was evaluated by the department of safety in production. In addition, 206 employees of the same sex were regarded as the control group. All subjects provided the confirmed consent.METHODS: Questionnaires were finished in December 2006. Besides those whose educational level was lower than primary school or illness state was severe, their questionnaires were filled by somebody else through asking the feelings,and other subjects filled in the questionnaires by themselves. ① Social demography characteristics were surveyed in the two populations. ② The World Health Organization Quality of Life Assessment-100 (WHOQOL-100), which was characterized by excellent reliability, validity and sensitivity, was used to survey influencing factors (sex, age, occupation,educational level, marriage, smoking, drinking, pay, type of work in production, grade of occupational injury, injured site and type, other diseases, average income of per family member, housing area of per family member, accidental types,character styles, sleeping status, etc.) and various dimensions reflecting quality of life [physiological function (body ache,vigor, sleeping), mental state (well-being feels, confidence, and other three aspects), independence (daily living ability,work ability, and other two aspects), social relationship (interpersonal relation, social communication, and other one spect), material life (reliability, housing environment, and other eight aspects) and faith (individual faith)]. There were 24 aspects and every aspect included four items; in addition, there were 4 items in general healthy status. Therefore, there were 100 items in total. LinearitY method was used to score each item (from 1 tc 5 points). Self-scored quality of life had only one item, which was scored based on hundred-mark system. ③ Quality of life of subjects in the occupational injury group was analyzed with one-way analysis of variance. Variously dimensional indexes of quality of life in 6 fields were regarded as dependent variance, and effect factors were regarded as independent variance. The data were analyzed with multiple stepwise regression analysis.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Characteristics of social demography; ② scores of variously dimensional indexes of quality of life; ③ correlation between quality of life and effect factors in occupational injury group.RESULTS: All 234 patients in the occupational injury group and 206 subjects in the control group were involved in the final analysis. ① There were no significant differences in sex, age, occupation, educational degree, working duty,marriage, drinking, smoking, pay, having other diseases and occupational types between the two groups (P > 0.05). ②Scores of physiological field, independence field and total quality of life were lower in the occupational injury group than those in the control group (P < 0.05). ③ Effect factors on quality of life in the occupational injury group contained intoxication and asphyxia; ankle, foot and cranial injuries; avulsed wound and task degrees. Multiple factor analysis demonstrated that quality of life of patients in the occupational injury group was affected by waist injury, pay level and relationship with colleagues and family member.CONCLUSION: Quality of life is inferior in the occupational injury group to that in the control group. The effect factors are mainly focus on injured sites, accident and injured types, economic status and relationship with society and family member.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effects of transient cerebral ischemic reperfusion(IR) and flunarizine on the expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1) protein in brain tissue of gerbils.Methods A cerebral transient ischemic-reperfusion model in gerbils was established by clamping both common carotid.The gerbils were fed with flunarizine before experiment in flunarizine treatment group.The expression of PAI-1 protein in brain tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry technique at the 1,3 and 7 days after IR.Results There was slight expression of PAI-1 protein in the brain tissue of gerbils in the normal control group and sham operation group.Compared with normal control group,the expression of PAI-1 protein in neurons and gliacytes of ischemic gerbils was evidently increased at the 1,3 and 7 days in the cerebral ischemia group(all P
