RESUMO
OBJECTIVE To explore the efficacy of alfacalcidol combined with conventional antihypertensive and lipid- lowering drugs on liver and kidney function, serum inflammatory cytokines and renin-angiotensin system(RAS) in hypertensive patients with renal impairment. METHODS A total of 200 hypertensive patients with renal impairment who were treated in the department of nephrology in our hospital from December 2017 to December 2020 were selected and randomly divided into control group and observation group, with 100 cases in each group. Both groups of patients were treated with conventional antihypertensive and lipid-lowering drugs for a total of 14 weeks, patients in the observation group were additionally treated with oral alfacalcidol after 2 weeks of treatment (0.25 μg each time, once a day, for a total of 12 weeks). The levels of liver function indexes [aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT)], renal function indexes [blood calcium, blood phosphorus, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), cystatin C (Cys-C), serum creatinine (Scr), urine microalbumin (mAlb), β2-microglobulin (β2-MG), urinary N- acetyl β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG), 24 h urinary protein], inflammatory factors [serum interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP)] and RAS activity indexes [renin, angiotensin Ⅰ(Ang Ⅰ), Ang Ⅱ and aldosterone] were observed in 2 groups before and after treatment, and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions was recorded during treatment. RESULTS There was no statistical significance in the levels of detection indexes between 2 groups before treatment (P>0.05). After treatment, the level of blood calcium in the observation group was significantly higher than before treatment (P<0.05), but remained at clinically normal level. Compared with before treatment, the levels of Cys-C, Scr, BUN, urine mAlb, β2-MG, NAG and 24 h urinary protein, hs-CRP, IL-6, TNF-α, renin, Ang Ⅰ, Ang Ⅱ and aldosterone were significantly decreased in the observation group after treatment (P<0.05). After treatment, the level of blood calcium in observation group was significantly higher than control group (P<0.05). Additionally, the levels of Cys-C, Scr, BUN,urine mAlb, β2-MG, NAG, 24 h urinary protein, hs-CRP, IL-6, TNF-α, renin, Ang Ⅰ, Ang Ⅱ and aldosterone were significantly lower than control group (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of adverse drug reactions between 2 groups during treatment (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Alfacalcidol combined with routine therapy of antihypertensive and lipid-lowering drugs could effectively improve liver and renal functions, inhibit inflammation and RAS activity in hypertensive patients with renal impairment, with a favorable safety.

RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the impact of blood pressure and age on arterial stiffness in general population.@*Methods@#Participants who took part in 2010, 2012 and 2014 Kailuan health examination were included. Data of brachial ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) examination were analyzed. According to the WHO criteria of age, participants were divided into 3 age groups: 18-44 years group (n=11 608), 45-59 years group (n=12 757), above 60 years group (n=5 002). Participants were further divided into hypertension group and non-hypertension group according to the diagnostic criteria for hypertension (2010 Chinese guidelines for the managemengt of hypertension). Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the association between systolic blood pressure (SBP) with baPWV in the total participants and then stratified by age groups. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the influence of blood pressure on arterial stiffness (baPWV≥1 400 cm/s) of various groups.@*Results@#(1)The baseline characteristics of all participants: 35 350 participants completed 2010, 2012 and 2014 Kailuan examinations and took part in baPWV examination. 2 237 participants without blood pressure measurement values were excluded, 1 569 participants with history of peripheral artery disease were excluded, we also excluded 1 016 participants with history of cardiac-cerebral vascular disease. Data from 29 367 participants were analyzed. The age was (48.0±12.4) years old, 21 305 were males (72.5%). (2) Distribution of baPWV in various age groups: baPWV increased with aging. In non-hypertension population, baPWV in 18-44 years group, 45-59 years group, above 60 years group were as follows: 1 299.3, 1 428.7 and 1 704.6 cm/s, respectively. For hypertension participants, the respective values of baPWV were: 1 498.4, 1 640.7 and 1 921.4 cm/s. BaPWV was significantly higher in hypertension group than non-hypertension group of respective age groups (P<0.05). (3) Multiple linear regression analysis defined risk factors of baPWV: Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that baPWV was positively correlated with SBP(t=39.30, P<0.001), and same results were found in the sub-age groups (t-value was 37.72, 27.30, 9.15, all P<0.001, respectively) after adjustment for other confounding factors, including age, sex, pulse pressure(PP), body mass index (BMI), fasting blood glucose (FBG), total cholesterol (TC), smoking, drinking, physical exercise, antihypertensive medications, lipid-lowering medication. (4) Multivariate logistic regression analysis of baPWV-related factors: After adjustment for other confounding factors, including age, sex, PP, BMI, FBG, TC, smoking, drinking, physical exercise, antihypertensive medication, lipid-lowering medication, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that risks for increased arterial stiffness in hypertension group were higher than those in non-hypertension group, the OR in participants with hypertension was 2.54 (2.35-2.74) in the total participants, and same results were also found in sub-age groups, the ORs were 3.22(2.86-3.63), 2.48(2.23-2.76), and 1.91(1.42-2.56), respectively, in each sub-age group.@*Conclusion@#SBP is positively related to arterial stiffness in different age groups, and hypertension is a risk factor for increased arterial stiffness in different age groups.

Objective To investigate ventricular remodeling and glucose transporter 4(GLUT4) expression in rat with type 2 diabetes mellitus(DM) complicated with myocardial infarction (MI), as well as the effects of ramipril on ventricular remodeling and CLUT4 expression. Method Diabetic animal model (DM) was produced by cholesterol-diet and intraperitoneal injedtion of streptozotocin (STZ,30 mg/kg). The successful model was identified based on the blood gulcose value > 6.7 mmol/L. Left anterior descending coronary artery was ligated to produce the model of MI. 46 wistar rats were randomly(random number) divided into 5 groups: DM + MI + placebo group(placebo group, n = 9), DM + MI + ramipril group(ramipril group, n = 10), DM + sham-operation group (DM group, n = 10),non-DM group + MI (MI group, n = 9), and non-DM + sham-operation group (n = 8). After six weeks, echocardiographic studies was performed ; Left ventricular mass index (LVMI), myocardial infarct size and myocardial collagen volume fraction(CVF) of non-infarction area were also detected. GLUT4 mRNA in the myocardium away from infarction region was measured with real-time fluorescent quantitative RT-PCR and the expression of GLUT4 protein was measured with western blot. Analysis of variance was used to compare the groups. P -values< 0.05 were considered to indicate statistically significant differences. Results Compared with Ml group and DM group,EF[(32 ±3)% vs. (65 ±4)%, P <0.01 and (32 ±3)% vs. (38 ±4)%, P <0.05 respectively] significantly decreased,while E/A ratio (P < 0.01), LVMI (P < 0.05) and CVF (P < 0.05) obviously increased in placebo group. The expression of GLUT4 mRNA and protein were similar between placebo group and DM group, however, much lower than those in MI group(P<0.01).In rampiril group, E/A ratio (P < 0.01), LVMI(3.1±0.2 vs.4.2±0.4, P <0.01) and CVF(P < 0.05) significantly decreased compared with placebo group, while EF[(45±3)% vs.(32±3)%, P <0.01] and the expression of GLUT4 mRNA and protein (P < 0.05) increased. Conclusions Rampiril could improve left ventricular hypertrophy and systolic/di-astolic dysfunction, increase the expression of GLUT4 mRNA and protein in diabetic rats complicated with MI.

RESUMO
Objective The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects and mechanism of ACEI(Fosinopril),AT1 receptor antagonism (Irbesartan),and combination of these two drugs on ventricular remodeling in rats with myocardial infarction.Methods Rats were randomly divided into four groups at twenty-four hours after MI,and treated for 6 weeks.Mean blood pressure and left ventricular end diastolic pressure(LVEDP) were evaluated,as well as ventricular weight(VW)/body weight(BW) ratio.The total,type I and type Ⅲcollagen and nonmyocyte cellular proliferation were quantified by histomorphometry.The expression of transforming growth factor-beta 1(TGF-? 1)mRNA within the noninfarction zone was determined by in situ hybridization.Results Irbesartan and combination therapy decreased total collagen more significantly compared with fosinopril.Combination therapy decreased typeⅠcollagen more significantly than fosinopril.Nonmyocyte cellar proliferation in MI-combination group was more significantly suppressed than in MI-fosinopril group.Treatment with irbesartan or combination therapy normalized TGF-? 1 mRNA level within the noninfarction zone.Conclusion Fosinopril or irbesartan alone ,and combination of these two drugs can limit myocardial hypertrophy,attenuate the development of myocardial interstitial fibrosis,and prevent nonmyocyte cellar proliferation in the noninfarcted left ventricle.The use of irbesartan,especially combined with fosinopril was more effective than fosinopril alone in the suppression of histopathologic changes resulting in ventricular remodeling after MI.Irbesartan and combination therapy was more effective than fosinopril alone in suppressing TGF-? 1 mRNA expression.
RESUMO
Objective:Our aim was to To clarify the roles of p16 and p15 proteins in the genesis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL).Methods:Twenty-three samples of ALL were studied by the method of indirect immunofluorescence.Flow cytometer was used to estimate the cellular fluorescent intensity to determine the levels of p16 and p15 proteins.Results:Negative expression for p16 protein was found in 10 of 23 samples,and 8 of 23 were p15 negative expression.Both kinds of proteins were abscent in 6 samples.2 of 3 cases of T-ALL were negative expression of p16,p15 protein.In non T-ALL,6 of 13 were negative expression for p16 protein,5 of 13 were p15 protein deficient.The expression rates of p16,p15 protein in high leukocyte group were lower than those of non-high leukocyte group(P<0.05).The expression rates of p16,p15 proteins in HR-ALL were lower than those of SR-ALL(P<0.05).Conclusion:The p16 and p15 proteins take part in the genesis of ALL.Negative expression of p16,p15 proteins might imply the poor clinical outcome.
RESUMO
Objective: To explore whether high epidural blockade(HEB) can lower the elevated serum free fatty acids(FFA) level in the patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI). Method:In 7 patients with AMI,HEB at T 15 was performed by injecting 5 to 7ml of 0.5%-0.75% lidocaine every 2 to 4 hours for 7 successive days;while the other 7 patients with AMI didn't use HEB as control. only morphine or dolantine was used for relieving angina cordis. Result: The elevated FFA level returned to normal range in 12 hours following HEB in the study group, but in one week in the control group. Conclusion:HEB(T1-5) can lower the elevated FFA level in AMI patients to normal within12 hours.
