RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the early warning effect of two polymorphisms of AKT1 gene (rs1130214, rs2494744) on the risk of atherosclerotic cerebral infarction in Hainan province.Methods:In this study, totally 243 patients with atherosclerotic cerebral infarction who were hospitalized of Hainan Province from January 2019 to October 2020 were selected as the cerebral infarction group, including 148 Han nationality people and 95 Li nationality people. And 272 healthy people who received physical examination in the same hospital during the same period were selected as the control group, including 197 Han nationality people and 75 Li nationality people.All participants signed informed consent. The peripheral anticoagulant DNA was collected, and the genomic DNA was extracted and amplified by PCR.The genotypes of rs1130214 and rs2494744 were analyzed by mass spectrometry, and the distribution frequency of genotypes in cerebral infarction group and control group was analyzed by Chi-square test with SPSS 25.0 software.Results:Regardless of nationality, there was no significant difference in the distribution frequency of rs1130214 and rs2494744 of AKT1 gene between cerebral infarction group and control group (both P>0.05). The frequencies of AA, AG and GG genotypes of rs2494744 locus were 44.59%, 51.36% and 4.05% in the cerebral infarction group of Han nationality, while they were 47.21%, 42.13% and 10.66% in the control group of Han nationality, with significant difference between the two groups(χ 2=6.396, P<0.05). The independent effects of the three genotypes were analyzed by regression analysis. The results showed that GG genotype might be a resistance factor of cerebral infarction in Han population ( P=0.024, OR=0.354, 95% CI: 0.139-0.901). The frequency of AA, AG and GG genotypes of rs2494744 was 58 (61.05%), 25 (26.32%), 12 (12.63%) in the control group of Li nationality, and 28 (37.33%), 39 (52.00%), 8 (10.67%) in the control group of Li nationality. The results showed that the distribution of AA was significantly higher than that of the control group ( P<0.05, OR= 2.631, 95% CI=1.410-4.09), while AG was on the contrary ( P<0.05, OR=0.330, 95% CI=0.173-0.627). Conclusion:AA genotype of rs2494744 in AKT1 gene polymorphism is a risk factor for cerebral infarction in Li nationality group, which has potential early warning value for cerebral infarction in Hainan Li nationality group, while AG has protective effect on cerebrovascular health in Hainan Li nationality group.

RESUMO
Objective Few studies are reported about the values of the levels of plasma lipoprotein related phospholipase A2 (LP-PLA2) and serum resistin in predicting the prognosis of atherosclerotic cerebral infarction (ACI).This article aims to evaluate the predictive values of LP-PLA2 and serum resistin in the prognosis of ACI.Methods This study included 136 cases of ACI diagnosed and treated in Huaihe Hosptial from September 2013 to September 2014.The patients were followed up for 2 years,during which 48 were found with adverse outcomes (the poor prognosis group) 76 without disease progression (the good prognosis group).We analyzed the influencing factors on prognosis using the Cox proportional hazard model and evaluated the sensitivity and specificity of these factors in predicting the prognostic risks of the patients by ROC curve analysis.Results The rate of poor prognosis was 38.71％ among the included patients.Analysis with the Cox proportional hazard model showed significant impacts of LP-PLA2 (OR =2.105,95％ CI:1.878-2.413) and serum resistin (OR=1.784,95％ CI:1.509-2.213) on the prognosis of the patients.Compared with the good prognosis group,the poor prognosis group exhibited markedly higher levels of LP-PLA2 ([128.78±76.22] vs [268.65±89.02] mg/L,P＜0.01)and serum resistin ([20.71±6.15] vs [24.36±4.87] mg/L,P＜0.01).The sensitivity and specificity of LP-PLA2 combined with serum resistin were 81.35％ and 78.26％,respectively.Conclusion The combination of LP-PLA2 with serum resistin has a good predictive value for the prognosis of atherosclerotic cerebral infarction and is expected to be widely applied as a routine index in clinical practice.
RESUMO
Objective To study the impact of aspirin resistance(AR)on the recurrence of artery athero-sclerotic cerebral infarction,and analyze the risk factors of AR. Methods According to TOSAT classification, newly diagnosed cerebral infarction patients with artery atherosclerotic cerebral infarction were selected into groups,and aspirin enteric-coated tables(ASP)was used to prevent platelet aggregation.One week later,the inhi-bition rate of platelet was detected by thrombelastogram(TEG),and the patients were divided into aspirin sensi-tive(AS)group and AR group,and were followed-up for at least 6 months.According to whether they were recur-rent cerebral infarction,the patients were divided into recurrent group and non-recurrent group. Then,statistical analysis was conducted.Results The incidence rate of AR in recurrent group was significantly higher than that in non-recurrence group(P < 0.05);the recurrence rate of cerebral infarction in AR group was significantly higher than that in AS group(P<0.05).When compare the clinical indexes between the recurrence group and non-recur-rence group,age,diabetes,TC,Hcy,Apo-a in the two groups were different(P<0.05).In recurrent group,the distribution of diabetes,LDL-C and Hs-CRP were different between AR and AS group(P<0.05).Age,gender, hypertension,diabetes,Hs-CRP and TC were risk factors for AR.Conclusions AR plays an important role in the relapse of artery atherosclerotic cerebral infarction and it is more likely to occur especially accompanied by adverse factors such as underlying diseases. TEG can be used to detect AR rapidly and conveniently,which has practical significance in preventing recurrent cerebral infarction.
RESUMO
Objective To observe the influence of Qileng Decoction on the level of serum visfatin and the degree of carotid atherosclerosis in patients with acute atherosclerotic cerebral infarction(AACI). Methods One hundred and eighty AACI patients were classified into non-AACI control group (group A;N = 30), stable carotid atherosclerotic plaques group(group B;N = 75)and unstable carotid atherosclerotic plaques group(group C;N= 75)according to the results of carotid color ultrasonography. The serum visfatin level of the three groups was detected at the time of AACI attack. Group B and group C were separately randomized into conventional treatment subgroup (N = 37)and Qileng Decoction subgroup (N = 38). The conventional treatment subgroup was given basic therapy for AACI including nutrition support and symptomatic treatment , and Qileng Decoction subgroup was treated with Qileng Decoction (mainly composed of Radix Astragali,Rhizoma Sparganii, Fructus Mori,Radix Trichosanthis, Rhizoma Curcumae,Hirudo,and Fructus Aurantii)orally on the basis of treatment for the conventional treatment group. Before treatment and 15,90 and 180 days after treatment,we detected the level of serum visfatin,and measured the carotid intima-media thickness(IMT)and plaque scores(PS). Results (1)At the time of AACI attack,serum visfatin level of group B and group C was significantly higher than that of group A,and the level of serum visfatin of group C was significantly higher than that of group B,the difference being significant (P < 0.05). After treatment,serum visfatin over-expression was improved in both conventional treatment subgroup and Qileng Decoction subgroup of groups B and C at various time points (P< 0.05 compared with that before treatment), and the improvement in Qileng Decoction subgroup was superior to that in conventional treatment subgroup (P < 0.05). (2)At the end of treatment, IMT was improved in conventional treatment subgroup and Qileng Decoction subgroup of groups B and C (P < 0.05 compared with that before treatment), and the improvement in Qileng Decoction subgroup was superior to that in conventional treatment subgroup (P < 0.05). (3) The total effective rate for PS improvement of conventional treatment subgroup in groups B and C was 74.3％,68.6％ respectively,and that of Qileng Decoction subgroup in groups B and C was 94.4％, 91.7％ respectively, indicating that Qileng Decoction subgroup had better effect on improving PS than conventional treatment subgroup(P < 0.05). Conclusion Qileng Decoction exerts certain effect on regulating the over-expression of serum visfatin and improving the degree of carotid atherosclerosis in AACI patients.

RESUMO
AIM:To explore the change of antithrombin Ⅲ( AT-Ⅲ) in the patients with atherosclerotic cere-bral infarction .METHODS:Chromogenic substrate assay was used to measure the activity of AT-Ⅲ in 55 patients with atherosclerotic cerebral infarction and 55 healthy controls , and the correlation analysis was applied to determine the AT-Ⅲactivity with the severity of damage in central nervous system and general biochemical parameters .The levels of TNF-αand IL-6 in the plasma were detected by ELISA .Immunocomplex in the plasma was measured by enzyme immunoassay (EIA). The number and phenotype of the monocytes in peripheral blood were analyzed by flow cytometry .ELISA was also applied to determine the secretion of TNF-αand IL-6 from the monocytes after the stimulation of immunocomplex .The expression of AT-Ⅲin human brain vascular endothelial cells after the stimulation of TNF-αand IL-6 was observed by Western blotting . RESULTS:The activity of AT-Ⅲsignificantly decreased in the patients with atherosclerotic cerebral infarction , and nega-tively correlated with the damage degree of nervous system function , systolic pressure , diastolic pressure , glucose , choles-terol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and homocysteine , while positively correlated with high-density lipo-protein.In addition, the plasma levels of TNF-αand IL-6 increased significantly , accompanied with the enhancement of immunocomplex level .The numbers of CD14 + CD16 + and CD14 + CD32 + monocytes in peripheral blood were not changed , while CD14 +CD64 +monocytes increased obviously .The secretion of TNF-αand IL-6 by monocytes were signifi-cantly enhanced after stimulated with immunocomplex , while the protein expression of AT-Ⅲ in the human brain vascular endothelial cells was down-regulated after co-incubated with TNF-αor IL-6.CONCLUSION:Decreased AT-Ⅲactivity in the patients with atherosclerotic cerebral infarction is one of the risk factors of cerebral infarction , and related with the dis-ease severity .The production of pro-inflammatory cytokines through immunocomplex from CD 14 +CD64 +monocytes may be involved in the mechanism .Improvement of AT-Ⅲactivity may protect against cerebral ischemia .
