Serum level of miR-126 in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage and its clinical significance / 中国基层医药

Objective:To investigate the serum level of miR-126 in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage and to elucidate its clinical significance in hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.Methods:From January 2015 to December 2018, 60 patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage were selected as observation group, and 60 healthy subjects were selected as control group in the People's Hospital of Lin'an Affiliated to Hangzhou Medical College.The serum levels of miR-126 were determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-ɑ (TNF-ɑ) and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results:The serum level of miR-126 in the observation group was lower than that in the control group [(0.46±0.11) vs.(1.00±0.13), t=24.562, P<0.05], and the serum levels of CRP, TNF-ɑ and NF-κB were higher than those in the control group[(8.74±0.69)mg/L vs.(3.98±0.61)mg/L, (62.43±8.26)μg/L vs.(31.28±6.54)μg/L, (19.73±1.02)μmol/L vs.(4.92±0.87)μmol/L, t=40.034, 22.902, 85.570, all P<0.05]. There were statistically significant differences in serum miR-126, CRP, TNF-ɑ, NF-κB levels among patients with different severity of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage[(0.57±0.09) vs.(0.44±0.12) vs.(0.36±0.11), (6.91±0.72)mg/L vs.(8.63±0.67)mg/L vs.(9.14±0.75)mg/L, (53.16±8.19)μg/L vs.(62.57±8.33)μg/L vs.(70.38±8.09)μg/L, (12.49±0.97)μmol/L vs.(19.58±1.11)μmol/L vs.(25.64±1.05)μmol/L, F=14.433, 41.379, 17.796, 623.893, all P<0.05], with the severity increased, the serum miR-126 level decreased, serum CRP, TNF-ɑ and NF-κB levels increased.The serum miR-126 level in patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage of the poor prognosis group was lower than that of the good prognosis group [(0.53±0.10) vs.(0.38±0.12), t=5.279, P<0.05], and the serum levels of CRP, TNF-ɑ and NF-κB in the poor prognosis group were higher than those in the good prognosis group[(7.85±0.64)mg/L vs.(9.16±0.73)mg/L, (51.07±8.32)μg/L vs.(73.26±8.17)μg/L, (14.73±1.08)μmol/L vs.(26.52±0.99)μmol/L, t=7.392, 10.317, 43.424, all P<0.05]. The area of brain edema in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage was negatively correlated with serum miR-126 ( r=-0.623, P<0.05), and positively correlated with serum CRP, TNF-ɑ and NF-κB ( r=0.581, 0.618, 0.642, all P<0.05). The serum miR-126 level was negatively correlated with CRP, TNF-ɑ and NF-κB in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage ( r=-0.593, -0.624, -0.618, all P<0.05). Conclusion:The serum level of miR-126 is reduced in patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage, which may participate in the pathogenesis of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage by participating in inflammatory reaction.The detection of serum miR-126 level has great value in evaluation of the severity and prognosis of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.

Polyethersulfone hollow fiber membrane for hemodialysis--preparation and evaluation / 生物医学工程学杂志

Polyethersulfone (PES) hollow fibers were fabricated by dry-wet spinning method for hemodialysis application. The effects of additives polyethylene glycols (PEG) in the dope solution and of fiber thickness and inner diameter fiber on the membrane mechanical characters were investigated. The dialysis tests were conducted by using a simulated solution prepared by dissolving bovine serum albumin (BSA), lysozyme and urea in de-ionized water to test the effects of membrane characters and operating conditions on dialysis efficiency. The results indicated that the reduction of PEG concentration from 27.6 wt% to 24.1 wt% in the dope solution improved the clearance of toxins, but slightly decreased the mechanical characters. The reduction of fiber thickness or fiber inner diameter was found to improve the clearance of toxins by removing 64.2% of lysozyme and 89.4% of urea (membrane area 0.2 m2), whilst BSA retention was found being maintained above 98%. The dialysis efficiency was also noted to increase with the increase in the flow rate of either the simulated or the dialysate solution, or increasing the membrane area. Moreover, The result of a comparison on the clearance of toxins between commercial F60S and PES dialyzers indicated higher dialysis efficiency per area of the fabricated PES membrane.

Central venous catheter related Infection and risk factors after cardiovascular surgery / 中国综合临床

Objective To investigate the pathogen culturing of the catheter related infection(CRI),cathe-ter related bloodstram infection(CRB)and risk factors after central venous catheter(CVC)of cardiovascular surgery in order to provide the beneficial reference.Methods From Jan 2005 to Dec 2005,a total of 300 cases central ve-nous cathers were determined,and the cusp of the catheters was determined by bacteria cultivation,and blood bacte-ria cultivation.Results The infection happened in 35 of 300 patients with inserted central venous catheter.The cusps of CRI rate was 11.7%.CRB rate was 1.7%.54.3%pathogens were gram-positive cocci,34.3% were gram-negative bacilli,11.4% were fungi.The most common strain were Staphylococcus epidermis,Staphylococcus aureus,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Pseudomonas aeruginose,and Candiadia albicans.The infection rate increased obviously when the dwelling time>6 d.Conclusion CRI and CRB are the most severe complication of CVC,and it is important to cut down the death with the early diagnosis and applying antibiotics rationally.
