Objective To describe the status of duration of ICU delirium and to analyze its influencing factors.Methods We studied patients who were delirium positive from April 2016 to January 2017 in ICU in Peking Union Medical College Hospital.We collected general information and clinical information including mechanical ventilation,usage of sedation,analgesia and antipsychotics,hypoxia,infection,internal environment and types of delirium after initial onset of delirium.We also recorded management of delirium patients until resolution of delirium or patients were discharged from ICU.We analyzed data by Kaplan-Meier single factor analysis and Cox multiple-factors analysis.Results The average duration of ICU delirium was(5.06±4.59) days.APACHE Ⅱ score(x2=4.670,P=0.031),persistent delirium or not(x2=5.801,P=0.016),duration of hypoxia(x2=14.438,P＜0.001),and duration of usage of antipsychotics(x2=13.360,P＜0.001)were influencing factors of delirium duration.Conclusion Duration of ICU delirium has huge variation.To decrease duration of ICU delirium and improve outcomes of patients,medical workers should pay attention to patients with high APACHE score,persistent delirium and hypoxia,and be cautious when using antipsychotics.

Telomere-associated factor expression in replicative senescence of human embryonic lung fibroblasts / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND: Telomere-associated proteins wil directly affect the function of telomeres, adjust the length of telomeric DNA, which are closely related with cellsenescence and carcinogenesis. OBJECTIVE: To find the key regulatory molecules in the cellsenescence process through observing the telomere-associated factor expression in normal cel replicative senescence process. METHODS: Based on established cel replicative senescence model, reverse transcription-PCR and western blot were used to detect the telomere-associated factor expression on the molecular and protein levels, including the telomere-associated factor human telomere binding protein 1, tankyrase 1, telomerase RNA, telomere protection protein 1 and P53 expressions in the human embryonic lung fibroblast replicative senescence. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The results showed that with the cellsenescence, transcription of human telomere binding protein 1 did not changed, while the protein expression of human telomere binding protein 1 was increased gradual y and then decreased rapidly; mRNA and protein expressions of telomere protection protein 1 did not changed; with the human embryonic lung fibroblast replicative senescence, expression of telomere protection protein 1 was decreased gradual y; with cellsenescence, telomerase RNA component showed an increasing trend; protein expression of P53 did not changed. Human telomere binding protein 1, telomere protection protein 1 and telomerase RNA play an important role in cellsenescence.

Effects of panax quinquefolius saponin of stem and leaf on glucose-lipid metabolism and insulin signal transduction in insulin resistant model adipocytes / 中国中西医结合杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe the effects of panax quinquefolius saponin (PQS) of stem and leaf on glucose-lipid metabolism and insulin signal transduction in the insulin resistant model of adipocytes.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The insulin resistant model of differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes was established in vitro with free fatty acid. After induction of insulin resistance, cells were treated with metformin or PQS for 2 days. The glucose consumption in culture fluid was detected by glucose oxidase method; the effects of PQS on the lipolysis induced by tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha) was observed using colorimetry; and the phospholation of signal proteins was detected by Western-blot.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The amount of glucose consumption (mmol/L) in the model group (5.250 +/- 2. 671) was significantly lower than that in the normal control group (14.133 +/- 1.305, P < 0.01), it increased in the meformin treated group (11.807 +/- 1.358), and the groups treated with high-, middle- and low-dose PQS dose-dependently (10.784 +/- 2.373, 10.217 +/- 1.237 and 9.984 +/- 2.006, respectively), significantly higher than that in the model group (P < 0.01). Upon TNF-alpha treatment, the concentration of free fatty acid (FFA) (nmol/ microg) in culture medium was 2.479 +/- 0.597, predominantly higher than that in the control group (1.320 +/- 0.538, P < 0.01), while it was 1.210 +/- 0.566 in the metformin group, 1.105 +/- 0.631 in high-dose PQS group, 1.108 +/- 0.260 in the middle-dose PQS group, 1.201 +/- 0.593 in the low-dose PQS group, all were lower than that in the TNF-alpha group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), and a dose-dependent tendency of PQS's action was seen. The tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor and IRS-1 as well as Ser473 phosphorylation of PKB were lower in the model group than in the control group; they were insignificantly changed in the low-dose PQS group, but did show significant difference in comparing with those in the high-and middle-dose PQS groups or metformin group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>PQS can accelerate the glucose utilization and depress the lipolysis in adipocytes induced by TNF-alpha, which may be correlated with its promoting insulin signal transduction and improving insulin resistance in adipocytes.</p>
