Objective To assess the predictive value for survival of BioCliM index in liver cirrhosis caused esophageal and gastric varices bleeding(EGVB)treated by endoscopic variceal ligation(EVL),endoscopic injection sclerotherapy(EIS)and endoscopic tissue adhesives(ETA).Methods From December 2006 to December 2011, the clinical data of 166 hospitalized patients with first occurrence of EGVB caused by liver cirrhosis and received endoscopic therapies were retrospectively analyzed.The scores of model for end-stage liver disease(MELD),model for end-stage liver disease-Na(MELD-Na),BioCliM index and Child-Turcotte-Pugh(CTP)were calculated. Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and area under the curve(AUC)were applied to assess the accuracy of the four models in one-year and two-year prognosis evaluation,and to obtain the best critical value,and the mortality rates were compared among groups.Chi-square test,t test and rank-sum test were performed for statistical analysis.Results Among 166 patients,the levels of creatinine,bilirubin,albumin,sodium,international normalized ratio and prothrombin time were(0.10 ± 0.06)mmol/L,(0.02 ± 0.01)mmol/L,(30.13 ± 5.06)g/L, (139.13 ± 4.27)mmol/L,1.50 ± 0.32 and(17.83 ± 2.88)s,respectively.During the one-year and two-year follow-up,there were 14 patients and 23 patients dead,respectively.During the one-year and two-year follow-up, the incidences of portal thrombosis of death group were lower than those of survival group(10/14 vs 93.4%,142/152;73.9%,17/23 vs 94.4%,135/143);and the differences were statistically significant(χ2=8.029 and 10.774, both P<0.01).During the one-year and two-year follow-up,BioCliM indexes of death group were 0.12(-0.82, 1.44)and -0.81(-0.87,0.92),respectively,which were both higher than those of survival group(-0.84,-0.94 to -0.73;and -0.84,-0.94 to -0.72),and the differences were statistically significant(Z= -3.074 and -2.260,both P<0.05).During the one-year follow-up,the AUC values of MELD,MELD-Na,BioCliM index and CTP score were 0.698,0.691,0.749 and 0.723,respectively.During the two-year follow-up,the AUC values of MELD,MELD-Na,BioCliM index and CTP score were 0.587,0.582,0.647 and 0.633,respectively. But there was no statistically significant difference in AUC between BioCliM index and MELD,MELD-Na,and CTP score in one-year and two-year follow-up for prognosis evaluation(Z=0.509,0.566,0.271,0.687,0.731 and 0.162,respectively;all P>0.05).The best critical value of BioCliM index was -0.234.Followed up for one year and two years,the mortality rates of patients with BioCliM index over -0.230 were higher than that of patients with BioCliM index less than -0.234(31.0%,9/29 vs 3.6%,5/137;34.5%,10/29 vs 9.5%,13/137);and the differences were statistically significant(χ2=23.242 and 12.526,both P<0.01).Conclusions BioCliM index has a high accuracy in one-year and two-year mortality rate evaluation in liver cirrhosis patients with EGVB and received endoscopical therapies.We should pay attention to the prognosis evaluation before the endoscopical therapy.
Résumé
Aim To investigate the protective effect of cinnamic aldehyde ( CA ) on hormone-induced osteo-clasts proliferation and bone resorption in vitro and its molecular mechanisms. Methods RAW264. 7 cells induced into osteoclast were treated with RANKL and M-CSF and then were divided into control group, dexa-methasone ( DEX ) group and different doses of CA (11. 6, 23. 2, 46. 4 μg·L-1 ) groups. OCs were ob-served after tartrate resistant acid phosphatase( TRAP) staining. The cell proliferation was determined by MTT assay at different time points. The expression levels of TRACP5 b in cell cultured supernatants were measured by ELISA. RT-PCR technique was applied to examine the transcriptional levels of RANK and NFATc1 . Re-sults In MTT assay, the proliferation of osteoclasts stimulated by dexamethasone was promoted seriously compared with negative control group ( P < 0. 05 ) . Meanwhile, DEX could strengthen the content of TRACP5 b and up-regulate the expressions of RANK and NFATc1 mRNA. After administration of CA, the proliferation was inhibited, while the enhanced expres-sion of TRAP5b was reversed,and the over-expressions of RANK and NFATc1 mRNA were obviously down-regulated in a time-and-dose-dependent manner ( P <0. 05 ) . Conclusion The results suggest that CA in-hibits proliferation and bone resorption of osteoclast in-duced by DEX, which may be mediated by down-regu-lation of RANK and NFATc1 mRNA.
