RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the effect of peroxiredoxin 2 (Prx2) overexpression on fibroblast proliferation and collagen synthesis induced by transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) .@*Methods@#Fibroblasts were randomly divided into control group (DMEM medium) , TGF-β1 group (5 μg/L TGF-β1) , negative control group (treated with 5 μg/L TGF-β1 and transfected with empty lentiviral vector) , and Prx2 group (treated with 5 μg/L TGF-β1 and transfected with Prx2 overexpression lentiviral vector) . MTT assay was used to measure cell proliferation, immunofluorescence assay was used to measure the expression of 8-OHdG, and Western blot was used to measure the expression of p-JNK, p-P38, collagen type I, collagen type III, and Prx2. SPSS 18.0 was used for statistical analysis. The continuous data were expressed as mean±standard deviation; an analysis of variance was used for comparison between groups, and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups.@*Results@#Lentiviral transfection was performed successfully, and the Prx2 group had a significant increase in the protein expression of Prx2 (P<0.05) . Compared with the control group, the TGF-β1 group had a significant increase in the proliferation ability (P<0.05) , and compared with the TGF-β1 group, the Prx2 group had a significant reduction in the proliferation ability (P<0.05) . Compared with the control group, the TGF-β1 group had significant increases in the expression of 8-OHdG, p-JNK, p-P38, collagen type I, and collagen type III (P<0.05) ; compared with the TGF-β1 group, the negative control group had no significant changes in the expression of 8-OHdG, p-JNK, p-P38, collagen type I, and collagen type III (P>0.05) , while the Prx2 group had significant reductions in the above parameters (P<0.05) .@*Conclusion@#Prx2 overexpression inhibits fibroblast proliferation and collagen synthesis induced by TGF-β1 through inhibiting reactive oxygen species and activating the JNK and P38 pathways.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the clinical effectivity of continuous positive airway pressure in treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease complicated with left heart failure.Methods Totally 103 patients (aged 63-78 years) with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease complicated with left heart failure were randomly divided into two groups:treatment group (received noninvasive ventilation combined with routine medication) and control group (received conventional drug therapy).The patients of two groups were observed in the treatment of 1 hour to one week that blood pressure (SBP),heart rate (HR),arterial blood gas analysis,respiratory rate (RR),brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and other indicators to improve the situation.Results After treatment,the PaO2 level of patients in treatment group was significantly increased from (56.1 ± 7.8) mm Hg to (91.1 ±11.3)mm Hg,(t=449.94,P＜0.05),PaCO2 decreased from (60.1± 10.9) mm Hg to (42.3± 9.3)mm Hg,(t=4.66,P＜0.05),pH value was improved from (7.26±0.12) to (7.36±0.17) (t=5.88,P＜0.05) and BNP was decreased from (350±181) ng/L to (961±376) ng/L (t=8.07,P＜0.05).In control group,the PaO2 was significantly increased from (55.0±8.1) mm Hg to (89.1±12.0) mm Hg (t=43.17,P＜0.05) after treatment,PaCO2 by decreased from (48.9±10.8) mm Hg,(58.9±10.8) mm Hg to (t=5.13,P＜0.05),pH value by up to (7.27 ±0.08),BNP by decreased from (439 ± 246) ng/L to (947 ±407) ng/L t=9.81,P＜0.05.Compared with the control group,the difference of PaO2 and BNP had no significantly significant.PaCO2 in treatment group was increased more sharply than it in the control group,and pH decreased more (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusions The use of continuous positive airway pressure to treatment chronic obstructive pulmonary disease complicated with left heart failure can alleviate fatigue and prevent the respiratory failure.It is remarkable treatment effect and worthy of clinical application.
RESUMO
Objective To explore whether or not the use of prophylactic antibiotics is required before inguinal hernia repair in metabolic syndrome (MS) patients.Methods According to the randomized double blind,prospective study,from 2010 July to 2012 December,186 MS patients underwent inguinal hernia repair operation were selected as the study objects.The control group(n =93) was given a one-time cefazolin 1.5g plus 0.9％ sodium chloride injection 20ml intravenous injection 30min before operation,the observation group(n =93) was given 0.9％ sodium chloride injection 20ml intravenous injection.Results The control group had 5 cases of infection,the observation group had 6 cases.There were no statistically significant differences in the normal body temperature of operation site infection,occurred between the two groups after operation (all P ＞ 0.05).But in the two groups,the probability of infection occurs of the patients with body mass index(WBI) more than 30 was higher that of the patients with 25 ≤WBI ≤ 30(17.24％ vs 1.56％,12.90％ vs 1.61％,x2 =4.69,4.87,all P ＜0.05),the probability of infection occurs of fasting blood glucose(FPG) more than 12.0mmol/L was higher than that of the patients with 6.1mmol/L≤FPG≤ 12.0mtol/L(15.30％ vs 1.64％,13.33％ vs 1.59％,x2 =4.81,5.13,all P＜0.05).Conclusion MS patients underwent tension-free repair of inguinal hernia don't need the use of antibiotics to prevent postoperative surgical site infection(SSI).But for the severe obesity,high blood sugar (FPG ＞ 12.0mmol/L) patients,the preoperation prophylactic antibiotics is necessary,and it can reduce the incidence of postoperative SSI.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate outcomes of transanal endoscopic microsurgery(TEM) for the treatment of rectal villous adenoma and early-stage rectal carcinoma.Methods A series of 31 patients with rectal tumors underwent TEM from November 1995 to December 2003.The operation was performed under general anesthesia.The patients were placed in a dependent position dictated by the location of the tumor.A special rectoscope was inserted into the anus with CO_2 insufflation to keep the rectum open.Under the stereoscope and laparoscopic-type instruments,the tumor was completely resected(submucosal or full-thickness excision) using a needle diathermy or a 5-mm ultrasonic dissector.The operative wound was closed with intra-lumen continuous sutures.Results The rectal tumor was completely removed with negative resection margins in all the 31 patients.The operating time was 45~220 min(mean,95 min) and the intraoperative blood loss was 0~180 ml(mean,40 ml).Complications included temporary flatus incontinence in 2 patients,acute retention of urine in 1 patient,exacerbation of chronic obstructive airway disease in 1,and secondary hemorrhage following Aspirin taking in 1.The postoperative pathological stages were pT_0 in 16 patients,pT_(is) in 2 patients,pT_1 in 7,pT_2 in 3,and pT_3 in 3.Follow-up checkups in the 31 patients for 2~92 months(mean,23 months) revealed no local recurrence.Conclusions TEM is a safe and effective minimally invasive surgical technique for the treatment of rectal villous adenoma and early rectal carcinoma.
