RESUMO
Objective To analyze the expression levels of serum microRNA(miR)-211 and miR-202 in patients with Alzheimer's disease and their correlation with cognitive function,anxiety and depression.Methods A total of 90 patients with Alzheimer's disease admitted to Hebei Yanda Hospital from March 2019 to March 2022 were selected as the research group.According to the Clinical Dementia Rating(CDR)score,the patients were grouped into mild group(n=24),moderate group(n=48)and severe group(n=18).Another 90 healthy individuals who underwent physical examination were collected as the control group.The expression levels of miR-211 and miR-202 in serum were compared.Pearson method and Spearman method were used to analyze serum miR-211 and miR-202 and their correlation with cognitive function,anxiety and depression.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of Alzheimer's disease.Results The expression levels of serum miR-211(0.59±0.16,1.01±0.31)and miR-202(0.35±0.10,1.00±0.32)were significantly reduced in the research group and control group,with significant differences(t=11.422,18.393,all P<0.05).Serum miR-211(0.73±0.21,0.62±0.17,0.32±0.08)expression levels,miR-202(0.51±0.15,0.33±0.10,0.19±0.04)expression levels,mini-mental state examination(MMSE)score(22.54±1.41 score,19.35±1.01 score,16.23±1.00 score)and Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA)score(25.35±2.60 score,18.59±1.32 score,16.59±1.24 score)in the mild,moderate and severe groups gradually decreased,and the differences were statistically significant(F=32.006,46.917,163.048,163.703,all P<0.05).Compared with mild group,the serum miR-211,miR-202,MMSE and MoCA scores of severe group and moderate group were reduced,and the differences were statistically significant(t=3.685~25.375,all P<0.05).The mild,moderate and severe groups had a gradual increase in Hamilton anxiety scale(HAMA)score(12.34±1.27 score,20.59±2.09 score and 31.29±2.19 score)and Hamilton depression scale(HAMD)score(14.35±2.13 score,23.89±2.20 score and 35.35±1.21 score),and the differences were statistically significant(F=496.059,553.939,all P<0.05).According to Pearson correlation analysis,miR-211 was positively correlated with miR-202(r=0.651,P<0.05).According to Spearman correlation analysis,miR-211 and miR-202 were positively correlated with MMSE and MoCA(r=0.539~0.585,all P<0.05)and negatively correlated with HAMA and HAMD(r=-0.651~-0.539,all P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that the low expression of miR-211[OR(95%CI):5.321(1.648~17.180)]and miR-202[OR(95%CI):3.158(1.989~5.012)]were risk factors for Alzheimer's disease(P<0.05).Conclusion The serum expression levels of miR-211 and miR-202 in patients with Alzheimer's disease were reduced,indicating miR-211 and miR-202 were closely related to cognitive function,anxiety and depression.
RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analysis the burden of diseases (BOD) and economic burden of disease (EBOD) in Chongqing and provide scientific evidence for effective prevention and control of diseases.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The burden of diseases of Chongqing were estimated by use of disability-adjusted life year (DALY) from 2010 to 2013, two-step method was used in the calculation of direct economic burden of diseases. DALY combined with the human capital method were used to measure the indirect economic burden.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>From 2010 to 2013, DALY loss by all causes for the residents in Chongqing were 123.90, 127.01, 123.30 and 125.99 person year per thousand persons, respectively. The diseases mainly included non-communicable diseases, accounting for 83%-87%, followed by injure and infectious diseases. The five leading diseases of BOD in Chongqing were respiratory system disease, circulatory system disease, malignant tumor, accidental death, neuropsychiatric disease, respectively. The total economic burden of diseases was 1 621.34 million yuan RMB in 2013. The direct and indirect economic burden of diseases were 794.42 million yuan RMB and 826.92 million yuan RMB, which could be attributed to circulatory system disease, respiratory system diseases, injury, malignant tumor and muscle bones and connective tissue diseases.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Respiratory system disease, circulatory system diseases, malignant tumor, and injury have caused heavy burden both in people's health and economic status in Chongqing. It is necessary to take effective measures to prevent and control these diseases.</p>
