RESUMO
Objective To understand the detection rate of hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and the occurrence of abnormal thyroid function in medical examination population in Huanghua City,Hebei Province.Methods Using the retrospective analysis method,the thyroid examination data of residents of Huanghua City who were examined in the Cangzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine in Hebei Province from 2014 to 2016 were collected,the detection rate of HT and the occurrence of abnormal thyroid function were analyzed.Results A total of 4 413 people were examined,aged (45.76 ± 10.13) years old;including 2 099 males and 2 314 females.The HT detection rate of the medical examination population in Huanghua City was 6.55％ (289/4 413),and there was a trend of increasing year by year (x2trend =7.126,P ＜ 0.05).The difference in HT detection rates between different genders (male:2.86％,famale:9.90％) was statistically significant (x2 =89.077,P ＜ 0.05);there was a statistically significant difference in the HT detection rates among women of different age groups (x2 =18.541,P ＜ 0.05),and there was no significant difference in the detection rates of HT among men of different age groups (x2 =8.424,P ＞ 0.05).The incidence of abnormal thyroid function in HT patients was 25.61％ (74/289),of which the highest detection rate was 34.74％ (33/95) in the 40-＜ 50 years old group;the detection rates of HT with hyperthyroidism,hypothyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism were 3.11％ (9/289),6.57％ (19/289) and 15.92％ (46/289),respectively.The detection rate of HT with subclinical hypothyroidism was higher.Conclusions The HT detection rate of the population in Huanghua City has increased year by year,and some HT patients are associated with abnormal thyroid function,and their detection rate of HT with subclinical hypothyroidism is the highest.Early diagnosis of HT should be strengthened,and appropriate prevention and treatment measures should be taken in time to reduce the occurrence of HT with abnormal thyroid function.
RESUMO
Platelets is the important hemostatic component in the blood and the critical participants in inflammation. It is an important promoting factor during inflammation and can recruit leukocytes and aggregate in sepsis. Decreasing plate?let count was correlated with reverse clinical outcome. Therefore, the value of the platelets examination in clinical monitor was studied by many researchers. Under circumstance of fungal infections, platelets mediate antimicrobial activity and assist dissemination of the fungi synchronously. Regulating interaction between platelets and fungi is difficult. In allergic inflamma?tion patients, the excessive activating of platelets aggravates airway obstruction and worsen pulmonary function. We reviewed current research in activating platelets during inflammation.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS) treatment on the brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) serum levels in depressive patients.Methods Sixty-eight unipolar depressions treated with venlafaxine were randomly assigned to the real rTMS group(n =34)and the sham rTMS group(n =34),which were accepted the real or the shame rTMS treatment on the left dorsolateral prefrontal lobes respectively.The Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD) and BDNF serum was assayed before and after 4 weeks' treatment.Results 1) A significant increase of serum BDNF((12.2 ± 1.3) μg/L vs (5.6 ± 0.8) μg/L,t=-9.167,P=0.000;(11.4 ± 1.5)μg/L vs (6.0± 1.0)μg/L,t=-7.421,P=0.000)and a significant decline of HAMD((11.6 ± 1.7) score vs (32.6 ± 2.5) score,t =14.654,P =0.000 ; (4.2 ± 2.8) score vs (31.8 ± 3.2)score,t=12.089,P =0.000) were found after the treatment in the real and the shame group,and the real group changed more significantly than the shame group ((6.7 ± 0.8) μg/L vs (5.1 ± l.2) μg/L,t =2.690,P =0.009 ; (21.0 ± 2.1) score vs (17.6 ± 2.6) score,t =2.693,P =0.000).2) A negative correlation was found between the serum BDNF levels and the HAM D scores before the treatment(r =-0.530,P=0.003; r =-0.490,P =0.004),and a positive correlation between changes of BDNF levels and HAMD scores changes(r =0.439,P =0.006 ; r =0.454,P =0.005).Conclusion The rTMS treatment can increase serum BDNF levels in depressive patients.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the relationship between high sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and renal function among people aged 90 years and over in longevity regions in China.Methods Totally 506 subjects aged 90 years and over in 5 longevity areas from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS) 2008-2009 were included in the study.Demographic,behavioral and lifestyle parameters and self-reported chronic diseases were collected by general health-related questionnaire.We conducted the physical examination and also measured serum hsCRP and other indicators of renal function.Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between hsCRP and renal function.Results The prevalence of elevated hsCRP was 36.6％ in people aged 90 years and over,43.0％ in male and 34.8％ in female.No significant gender difference was observed among them (x2 =2.4184,P=0.1199).The prevalence of elevated hsCRP were 34.4％ in 90-99 years group and 39.2％ in the centenarian group,and there was no significant difference between the two groups (x2 =1.2425,P =0.2650).We found significant statistical difference in prevalence of elevated hsCRP between declined renal function group (42.0％) and normal group (33.3％) (t=3.8450,P=0.0499).The level of serum creatinine were (89.5±37.4) μmol/L in elevated hsCRP group and (81.5±31.4) μmol/L in the normal hsCRP group among the people aged 90 years and over.Significant difference was found between the elevated and normal hsCRP group (x23.8450,P=0.0161).In the multivariate logistic regression analysis,the risk factors of renal function decline were female,smoking,hypertension,hyperuricemia and elevated hsCRPCOR=1.676 (95％CI:1.091-2.573)].Conclusions Elevated hsCRP increases the risk of renal function decline among people aged 90 years and over in China.
RESUMO
Objective To describe the prevalence of hyperuricemia of centenarians in longevity areas of China and the risk factors were analyzed. Methods All centenarians in 7 longevity areas were selected,and people aged 40 ～, 60 ～, 80 ～ and 90 ～ were selected randomly in the same 7 areas. The data of demographic data, dieting habits and diseases history were collected by questionnaire survey. Hyperuricemia and associated risk factors, physical examination and biochemical tests were collected. Logistic regression was used to analyze the hypemricemia and its relevant factors. Results The highest prevalence of hyperuricemia was found in centenarian men, which was 12.73％, the highest prevalence of hyperuricemia among 90～ women was 18.75％. The hyperuricemia group were more prone to have hypertension, diabetes, renal function decreased, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, high density lipoprotein. Logistic regression analysis showed that renal function declined, high TG, high density lipoprotein hyperlipidemia, blood urea nitrogen increased, drinking were risk factors for hyperuricemia. Conclusion The prevalence of hyperuricemia in people older than 90 years and above in longevity areas is high. The results suggest that the treatment strategy for hyperuricemia should be a comprehensive one that combines preventive measures with medication interventions.
RESUMO
To prepare recombinant fox growth hormone (fGH), we amplified its cDNA from silver fox pituitary tissue by RT-PCR and cloned into yeast shuttle vector pPIC9K down stream of a-factor signal peptide sequence by SnaB I and Not I restriction sites. The recombinant secretion vector pPIC9K/fGH, linearized by Sal I, was transformed into histidine-deficient Pichia pastoris strain GS115 by electroporation. We selected His+ -transformed methylotropic (His+, Mut+) yeast using histidine-absent medium containing dextrose (MD) or methanol (MM) as the only carbon source, and then screened the recombinant GS115 with multi-copy fGH genes by G418. The secretive expression of fGH was performed under the induction of methanol in shaking flask culture. The results showed that the fGH cDNA sequence amplified in this paper was basically in consistence with the published in GenBank. We achieved the secretive expression of recombinant fGH identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. The fGH expression level was 119 mg/L, accounted for 34% of total proteins in fermentation medium.
