RESUMO
Objective To explore the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of air pollutants PM2.5, PM10, SO2, CO, and NO2, and their effects on acute cerebrovascular diseases in Jining City. Methods The data of patients with acute cerebrovascular disease treated in a 3A hospital in Jining from October 1, 2017, to November 31, 2019, were retrospectively collected. Combined with the air pollution data of 29 air quality monitoring stations in Jining City, the Kriging interpolation model was used to analyze the overall situation of air pollution in Jining. On this basis, the relationship between air pollution and acute cerebrovascular diseases in Jining City was analyzed. Results In Jining City, the incidence of acute cerebrovascular disease in male was higher than that in female, and the incidence in rural areas was significantly higher than that in urban areas. The spatial distribution showed a trend of gradual accumulation from southeast to northwest. The daily average concentrations of PM2.5 and PM10 were higher in winter and spring than in summer and autumn. The results of Kriging interpolation analysis showed that the concentrations of these air pollutants formed aggregation points in varying degrees. The spatial distribution of acute cerebrovascular disease patients in Jining City was highly consistent with the spatial distribution of air pollutant concentrations. Spearman correlation analysis showed that CO, SO2, and NO2 were positively correlated with the incidence of acute cerebrovascular disease, while the correlation between PM2.5 and PM10 and the incidence of acute cerebrovascular disease was not significant. Conclusion Some air pollutants such as CO, SO2, and NO2 have a positive correlation with the incidence of acute cerebrovascular disease, and the prevalence has a certain population and regional distribution. In the future work of cerebrovascular disease prevention, personal protection should be done according to local conditions and living environment of specific people.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the predictive value of the ischemic stroke predictive risk score (iScore) and serum homocysteine (Hcy) for early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods:Patients with acute ischemic stroke admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from July 2018 to June 2020 were enrolled retrospectively. END was defined as the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score within 7 d after admission increased by ≥2 from the baseline. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent correlations of iScore and serum Hcy level with END, and then the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the individual and combined predictive values of iScore and serum Hcy for END. Results:A total of 398 patients with acute ischemic stroke were enrolled, including 241 (60.6%) males, aged 65.02±12.17 years. The baseline NIHSS score was 12.15±5.67 and iScore was 124.58±37.51, and 103 patients (25.9%) developed END. Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in atrial fibrillation, fasting blood glucose, serum Hcy, stroke etiology type (large artery atherosclerosis and small artery occlusion), baseline NIHSS score and iScore between the END group and the non-END group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age, atrial fibrillation, fasting blood glucose, and stroke etiology type, the iScore (odds ratio [ OR] 1.016, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.009-1.040; P=0.004), serum Hcy ( OR 1.191, 95% CI 1.075-1.588; P<0.001) and baseline NIHSS score ( OR 1.289, 95% CI 1.101-1.613; P=0.023) had significant independent correlation with END. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of iScore combined with serum Hcy for predicting END was 0.859 (95% CI 0.820-0.898; P<0.001), which was significantly higher than that of iScore or serum Hcy alone ( P<0.001). The sensitivity and specificity of combined prediction were 81.55% and 85.76%, respectively. Conclusion:The iScore combined with serum Hcy has higher predictive value for END in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
RESUMO
The endophytic fungus named FSN006 was isolated from the inner bark of Juglans mandshurica. It grew quickly and formed circular colony on PDA plate. The upper side of the colony was white, while the lower side of the colony and the conditioned medium were light yellow as a result of significant yellow pigment substances were produced and secreted by the fungi. Green elliptic conidia appeared when cultured on CMX plate. Based on the morphology identification and ITS sequence, it was clear that this fungus belonged to the Deuteromycotina, HyPhomycetes, Moniliales, Trichoderma longibrachiatum. The conditioned medium of FSN006 showed a high anti-tumor ability against liver cancer cell-HepG2, and reached its IC50 concentration after being diluted 20 times, while the IC50 concentration of curcumine was(11.49 +/- 0.12) mg x L(-1). In addition, there was preeminent selective inhibiting effect against the normal liver cell strain HL-7702 and its caner counter strain HepG2. The inhibiting effect against strain HL-7702 was only one quarter of that against HepG2 at the concentration of IC50. Therefore, the fermentation of FSN006 may provide a possible way to produce anticancer drug with higher efficiency and lower toxicity.
