RESUMO

Objective@#To systematically evaluate the factors affecting diabetic retinopathy (DR) among Chinese adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), so as to provide insights into establishment of personalized risk prediction models for DR.@*Methods@# Case-control studies pertaining to factors affecting DR among Chinese adults were retrieved from international and national databases, including CNKI, Wanfang Data, SinoMed, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase and CINAHL from inception to March 31, 2023. A meta-analysis was performed using the software Stata 17.0, and subgroup analysis was performed to explore the source of heterogeneity. Sensitivity analysis was performed using the leave-one-out method, and the publication bias was evaluated using the Egger's test and trim-and-fill method. @*Results@#Totally 4 969 publications were retrieved, and 35 case-control studies were finally enrolled, including 32 high-quality publications (91.43%). The included studies involved 29 228 participants and 10 568 DR patients, and the prevalence of DR was 36.16%. Meta-analysis revealed that age (OR=1.06, 95%CI: 1.00-1.13), duration of T2DM (OR=1.09, 95%CI: 1.08-1.11), systolic blood pressure (OR=1.02, 95%CI: 1.01-1.03), glycated hemoglobin A1c (OR=1.38, 95%CI: 1.26-1.50), fasting blood glucose (OR=1.57, 95%CI: 1.07-2.31), urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (OR=1.50, 95%CI: 1.10-2.04), serum uric acid (OR=1.01, 95%CI: 1.00-1.01), urine microprotein (OR=2.01, 95%CI: 1.96-2.07), triglyceride (OR=1.77, 95%CI: 1.42-2.21), and total cholesterol (OR=1.82, 95%CI: 1.50-2.21) were risk factors for DR, and glomerular filtration rate (OR=0.98, 95%CI: 0.97-0.98) and C-peptide (OR=0.79, 95%CI: 0.68-0.93) were protective factors for DR. Sensitivity analysis of age effects was not robust. Following adjustment for glomerular filtration rate with the trim-and-fill method, there was still a publication bias, and the publication bias of other influencing factors had no impact on pooled effects. @*Conclusions@#Age, course of T2DM, systolic blood pressure, glycated hemoglobin A1c, fasting blood glucose, urinary albumin to creatinine ratio, serum uric acid, urine microprotein, triglyceride and total cholesterol were risk factors, and glomerular filtration rate and C-peptide were protective factors for DR among Chinese adults.

RESUMO

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of Scutellariae Radix (SR)-Paeoniae Radix Rubra (PRR) combination of different proportions on the expression of the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88)/nuclear transcription factor κB (NF-κB) and phosphatidylinositol kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathways in liver tissues of rats with hepatic fibrosis and explore the mechanism against hepatic fibrosis. MethodSixty male SD rats of SPF grade were randomly divided into a normal group, a model group, a positive control (silymarin) group, and SR-PRR 1∶1, SR-PRR 1∶2, and SR-PRR 1∶4 groups, with 10 rats in each group. The hepatic fibrosis model was induced in rats except for those in the normal group by intraperitoneal injection of 40% tetrachloromethane (CCl4)-olive oil solution at 3 mL·kg-1, 5 mL·kg-1 for the first time, for 8 weeks, twice per week. After 4 weeks, rats were treated correspondingly at 10 mL·kg-1 by intragastric administration, and the body weight of rats in each group was weighed for 8 weeks. After administration, histopathological changes in the liver were observed. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), hyaluronic acid (HA), laminin (LN), albumin (ALB), alkaline phosphatase (AKP), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities, malondialdehyde (MDA), and hydroxyproline (HYP) content in liver tissues were detected. The mRNA expression levels of TLR4, MyD88, NF-κB, PI3K, Akt, and mTOR in the liver of rats were detected by real-time fluorescence-based quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR). ResultCompared with the model group, SR-PRR combination of different proportions could recover the body weight and improve the pathological injury of the liver. As revealed by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) results, compared with the normal group, the model group showed increased ALT, AST, HA, LN, AKP, MDA, and HYP levels to different degrees (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the groups with drug intervention showed decreased levels of ALT, AST, HA, LN, AKP, MDA, and HYP, potentiated SOD activity, and increased level of ALB (P<0.05). As revealed by Real-time PCR results, compared with the normal group, the model group showed increased mRNA expression of TLR4, MyD88, NF-κB, PI3K, Akt, and mTOR (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the groups with drug intervention showed reduced mRNA expression of TLR4, MyD88, NF-κB, PI3K, Akt, and mTOR in the liver of rats (P<0.05). ConclusionSR-PRR combination of different proportions can improve the histopathological injury in liver tissues caused by CCl4, with the optimal effect observed in the SR-PRR 1∶4 group. SR-PRR may inhibit the development of liver fibrosis by inhibiting the expression of TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB and PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathways, thereby alleviating chemical-induced liver injury.

RESUMO

In order to compare the standards for quinolone residues in animal-derived food in China and supervision among multiple regulatory sectors, we summarized and compared the current standards for the limits of quinolone residues in animal-derived food in China and sampling examination strategy among regulatory sectors. There were defects in the standard limits of lomefloxacin, pefloxacin, ofloxacin, and norfloxacin which have been banned by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs. In addition, the determination limits of those indexes in the supervision remain inconsistent across multiple regulatory sectors. Multiple regulatory sectors on food safety should perform further risk assessment on the above problems and formulate the standards for the limits of quinolone residues in animal-derived food that may be applicable in China.

RESUMO

Objective To establish a scientific and objective evaluation model of the comprehensive performance of immunocolloidal gold qualitative rapid detection kits, and to provide a reference for the overall evaluation of similar products. Methods Based on the various factors affecting the performance of qualitative rapid detection kits, a comprehensive performance evaluation index system consisting of 4 first-level indicators and 18 second-level indicators was constructed.The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation (FCE) method were combined to determine the weights for the evaluation indicators and graded thresholds.The model was then used to evaluate the performance level of 6 brands of furazolidone metabolite rapid test kits. Results According to maximum membership degree principle, the evaluation of brand A, B, C, D, E and F were graded as good, excellent, middle, excellent, middle and excellent, respectively.Then the scores of 6 brands were calculated according to the hundred-mark system, and brand B had the highest score.This was consistent with the actual use experience. Conclusion The application of this model can make the evaluation results more comprehensive and accurate, providing reference for rational evaluation and selection of qualitative rapid detection kits.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE@#To study the correlation of galectin-3 level in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) with Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) load and cellular immunity of neutrophils and macrophages in the airway in children with refractory MP pneumonia (RMPP).@*METHODS@#A total of 64 children with RMPP who were hospitalized from January 2013 to January 2017 were enrolled. In addition to the conservative medical treatment, all the 64 children with RMPP were given bronchoalveolar lavage in the acute stage (5-7 days after admission) and 48 out of the 64 children were given bronchoalveolar lavage in the recovery stage (10-14 days after admission). Four milliliters of BALF of the affected lung lobe or segment were collected. ELISA was used to measure the level of galectin-3 in BALF supernatant. RT-PCR was used to measure MP load. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was used to measure the percentage of neutrophils and macrophages. Six children with bronchial foreign bodies were enrolled as the control group.@*RESULTS@#The RMPP group had a significantly higher level of galectin-3 in BALF in both the acute and recovery stages than the control group (P0.05). The RMPP group had a significantly higher MP load in BALF in both the acute and recovery stages than the control group (P<0.01), and the MP load in the acute stage was significantly higher than in the recovery stage (P<0.01). In the children with RMPP, galectin-3 level in BALF in the acute stage was positively correlated with MP load and the percentage of neutrophils (r=0.789 and 0.726 respectively; P<0.01).@*CONCLUSIONS@#Galectin-3 is involved in the process of airway inflammation in children with RMPP, and the level of galectin-3 in BALF is positively correlated with MP load. RMPP is a cellular immune inflammatory lesion with the increase of neutrophils and the reduction in macrophages. Galectin-3 is closely associated with neutrophil chemotaxis and luminal infiltration in children with RMPP. MP load gradually decreases with the recovery from RMPP, but it is not completely eliminated by the immune system in the recovery stage. MP infection can increase the consumption of macrophages in children with RMPP.

RESUMO

Renal angiomyolipoma (AML) is a common benign tumor in the urinary system, mainly composed of adipose tissue, blood vessels and muscle tissue. Renal AML is sporadic in most of patients, while a few are associated with tuberous sclerosis. Classical renal AML occurs predominantly in middle-aged females. Most cases are found incidentally during imaging examinations. The fat content makes AML have unique imaging characteristics and is easy to be identified with other renal tumors. However, the amount of fat varies in each tumor. AML that contains only microscopically detectable fat and whose amount of intratumoral fat may be too small to be identified on unenhanced computed tomography (CT) images is termed minimal fat or fat-poor renal AML, which appears as a high density shadow in the renal parenchyma on unenhanced CT images. Thus, it can be difficult to distinguish it from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) on imaging. Since the imaging findings are atypical, the diagnosis depends on pathological results. In addition, a few of AML can mimic malignant neoplasms. Recent studies suggested that AML might involve to peri-renal or renal sinus fat, regional lymphatics and other visceral organs, as well as inferior vena cava, which further makes the diagnosis more difficult. However, there is currently no reports about involvement of regional limphatics in minimal fat renal AML. In this article, we report a 27-year-old female patient without family history of tuberous sclerosis, who came to visit the hematologist because a high density shadow near the left kidney was found during CT scan which was accompanied by neck, armpits, groin, abdominal cavity and retroperitoneal lymph nodes enlargement. She was suspected of lymphoma in the beginning and transferred to Department of Urology to perform laparoscopic left renal mass and retroperitoneal lymph node excision and pathological examination for a definitive diagnosis. Finally, pathologic results revealed AML. Postoperative continuous lymphatic fistula developed and the retroperitoneal drainage of chylous fluid was 100-200 mL per day, lasting for 12 weeks. The fistula was successfully closed after conservative treatment including fasting and rehydration. This article summaries and discusses the diagnosis and treatment of renal AML with lymph nodes enlargement and the management of postoperative refractory lymphatic fistula by reviewing the related cases and literature.

RESUMO

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of patients diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and presented malignancy-associated hypercalcemia (MAH).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 36 patients with biopsy-proven SCC and presented MAH who were treated at the our department from January 2001 to December 2010. The survival were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Among these 36 patients, the median blood calcium level was 2.94 mmol/L (2.77-4.87 mmol/L), and the median survival time was only 45 days (1-839 d). Log-rank test showed that central nervous system symptoms, bone metastasis, and hypercalcemia occurring over 160 days after cancer diagnosis were predictors for poor survival(p=0.003, P=0.049, P=0.005). In the COX proportional hazard model analysis, central nervous system symptoms and hypercalcemia occurring over 160 days after cancer diagnosis were independent prognostic factors for survival time (RR=5.721, P=0.000; RR=4.624, P=0.001).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and presented MAH have poor prognosis. Central nervous system symptoms and hypercalcemia occurring over 160 days after cancer diagnosis are independent predictors of the prognosis.</p>

RESUMO

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>Many studies indicated that short-term and long-term intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuations in primary open angle glaucoma patients might lead to glaucomatous progression. However, seldom study has evaluated the long-term fluctuation of IOP in primary chronic angle closure diseases. The objective of this study was to investigate the long-term IOP fluctuation of primary angle closure diseases and its associations following laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) with or without laser peripheral iridoplasty.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A total of 158 patients with primary angle closure suspect (PACS, n = 21), primary angle closure (PAC, n = 81) and primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG, n = 55) had been treated by LPI with or without laser peripheral iridoplasty and followed up for more than 12 months. IOP was measured with Goldman applanation tonometer. Multivariate linear regression with generalized estimating equation (GEE) regression models was used to evaluate the association of long-term IOP fluctuation (maximum IOP minus minimum IOP) with gender, age, baseline IOP, baseline peripheral anterior synechia (PAS), baseline vertical cup/disc ratio (VCDR), baseline mean deviation (MD), need for IOP-lowering medications.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>IOP fluctuation during follow-up in PACS, PAC and PACG groups were (4.83 ± 2.90), (5.67 ± 3.35), and (9.40 ± 7.14) mmHg, respectively. IOP fluctuation was strongly correlated with baseline IOP (r = 0.356, P < 0.001), PAS (r = 0.374, P < 0.001). IOP fluctuation was higher in patients with higher baseline IOP (0.18 mmHg per unit increase, 95%CI: 0.05 - 0.31 mmHg).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Long-term IOP fluctuation in PACG group was larger than that in PACS or PAC group. Eyes with higher baseline IOP were observed to have larger long-term IOP fluctuation.</p>

RESUMO

The complete genome of encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV)strain GXLC isolated from swine was sequenced and analyzed. Five overlapped gene fragments covering the entire open reading frame (ORF) were amplified by RT-PCR, and the 3'-untranslated region (UTR) and 5'-UTR were amplified by the 3'-rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) and 5'-RACE method, respectively. The genome sequences of strain GXLC were obtained by assembling the sequences of RT-PCR-generated cDNA fragments. The length of the complete genome was 7 725 nucleotides (nt). The homology comparison and phylogenetic analysis of the nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences between strain GXLC and other EMCV strains available in GenBank were performed. The results showed that the complete genome identity between GXLC strain and the strains from China, i.e. GX0601, GX0602, BJC3 and HB1 and the strains from other countries, i.e. CBNU, K3, K11, TEL-2887A, EMCV-R and PV21 was over 99%. The phylogenetic trees based on the complete genome, the structural protein or the non-structural protein gene sequences revealed that the tree topology was similar. All the EMCV strains could be divided into two groups: group I and group II, and group I could be subdivided into subgroup Ia and subgroup Ib. The strains from swine belonged to subgroup Ia or Ib, and the strains from mice belonged to subgroup Ia, while the strains from Sus scro fa belonged to group II. Strain GXLC, together with other EMCV isolates from China, belonged to subgroup Ia.

RESUMO

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate whether down-regulation of Twist1 could change sensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line HNE1 to taxol.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>HNE1 cells were transfected with the small interfering RNA (siRNA) expression vector pSuppressor-Retro-Si-Twist, containing the short hairpin RNA (shRNA) sequence targeting the Twist gene-coding region by Fugene 6. Positive clones were then selected in Neomycin (400 microg/ml) for 21 days. The low expressions of Twist1 were examined by real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot. Drug sensitivity of si-Twist1 HNE1 to taxol was determined by Annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate( FITC)/propidium lodide (PI) double-labeled flow cytometry and detection of DNA ladder. The Effect of Twist1 inactivation on HNE1 cell proliferation was observed by MTT assay and flow cytometry.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Annexin V- FITC-PI assay showed that apoptosis ratio was 40.2% in si-Twist HNE1 after treated with 10 ng/ml taxol, significantly higher than that in the control siRNA group 24.3%. The deference had statistic meaning. After the re-expression of HNE1, apoptosis ratio was 44.80% +/- 4.80% (x +/- s) in low Twist1 protein expression group and that was 27.00% +/- 2.91% in high expression group. The deference had statistic meaning (t = 4.374, P = 0.049). Real time PCR test revealed apoptosis protein bcl-2 expression in si-Twist HNE1 was 0.28 +/- 0.05, significantly lower than that in the control siRNA HNE1 (0.57 +/- 0.08, t = 6.710, P = 0.021), nevertheless, significant bax and bcl-XL changes were not observed (t = 2.000, P = 0.184 and t = 1.502, P = 0.272). MTT and FCM showed that down-regulation of Twist1 did not alter cell proliferation rate (P>0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Down-regulation of Twist1 could increase drug sensitivity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line HNE1 to taxol by inducing apoptosis. These results suggested that Twist1 may be a promising treatment target for nasopharyngeal carcinoma therapy.</p>

RESUMO

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the relationship between genetic polymorphisms of C-344T in the promoter region and K173R in the exon 3 of aldosterone synthase gene (CYP11B2) and the incidence of essential hypertension in a northern Chinese Han population.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We conducted a case-control study including 182 hypertensive patients and 189 healthy controls in Harbin newspaper office and assayed the genotypes of C-344T and K173R using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and direct sequencing technology.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The distributions of C-344T and K173R genotype frequencies in men and women were in accordance with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The differences of C-344T allele and genotype as well as K173R allele frequency distributions between hypertensive patients and healthy controls were not statistically significant in men and women and pooled population (P > or = 0.05). The difference of K173R genotype frequency distribution reached borderline significance (P = 0.0500) and was more pronounced in women (P = 0.0038) according to the dominant mode of inheritance. Moreover, the magnitude of this mode of inheritance was more remarkable after the confounding factors were adjusted.
