低营养及低氧状态下NIH3T3细胞增殖及细胞周期的变化及对bFGF的影响

目的： 体外模拟慢性创面缺氧、低营养环境，观察成纤维细胞在该状态下增殖及细胞周期的变化及对外源性生长因子（bFGF）的反应,探讨低氧、低营养条件下成纤维细胞的病理生理变化。方法: 单纯缺氧环境采用厌氧培养箱，通入混合气，氧分压（PO₂）分为27 mmHg和44 mmHg 2个水平；低营养环境则控制培养液新生牛血清（NCS）浓度。用MTT法检测细胞活性以及其对外源性生长因子的反应，用流式细胞仪检测细胞周期。结果: PO₂ 44 mmHg时细胞增殖速度较同期对照组无明显差异；PO₂ 27 mmHg时，细胞增殖速度较同期对照组明显减慢（P<0.01），细胞被阻滞于G₀期，S期细胞比例明显减少，bFGF未显示促增殖作用。NCS浓度为0.5%的低营养状态下细胞增殖速度较同期对照组明显减慢（P<0.01），细胞被阻滞于G₀-G₁期（P<0.01）；bFGF能明显改善低营养状态下的增殖减慢（P<0.01），使G₂-M期细胞比例增加（P<0.05）。结论: 27 mmHg PO₂或NCS浓度为0.5%的低营养环境使细胞阻滞于G₀-G₁期，影响成纤维细胞增殖；bFGF可以改善低营养条件下细胞增殖减慢的状态，但对极度缺氧条件下的成纤维细胞增殖障碍无明显作用。     

基于复杂网络的《新针灸学》与《经络腧穴学》比较分析研究（英文）

提取《新针灸学》《经络腧穴学》中穴位名称、主治病症信息,基于复杂网络建立穴-症网络,分析两者穴位数量、相互关联程度及主治规律变化,借助拓扑学数据解释变化原因,为传统针灸知识体系的结构化、标准化研究提供具体思路和方法。共纳入《新针灸学》386穴、773种症状、形成152163个穴位配伍对,《经络腧穴学》403穴、253种症状、28755个穴位配伍对。两本教材的穴-症网络存在丰富的差异性,其所载的病症结构化程度随医学知识的更新而提升。《新针灸学》模型具有更加典型的小世界效应,或因其以病症为主要分类手段的优势体现。两本教材穴位定位与主治方面发生许多变化,学科发展、时代背景等方面是变化的主要原因。

针刺和聚焦冲击波疗法对肩袖肌腱病的止痛作用:一项回顾性临床研究

ObjectiveThe purpose of the study is to evaluate whether the clinical effects of focused extracorporeal shockwave therapy (f-ESWT) and acupuncture anticipate the clinical response in patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy in the short term.DesignAn observational retrospective clinical study.Setting/LocationPhysical Medicine and Rehabilitation Unit, Sant'Andrea University Hospital in Rome, Italy.Subjects/InterventionsWe analyzed retrospectively thirty patients (22 females and 8 males) with rotator cuff tendinopathy.Fifteen patients underwent f-ESWT and acupuncture combined therapy (Group A) and fifteen patients underwent only f-ESWT therapy (Group B).Outcome measuresThe outcome measures were the Visual Analogic Scale (VAS), Assessment Shoulder and Elbow Scale (ASES) and Roles and Maudsley Score (RMS). The follow-ups were T0 (pre-treatment), T1 (3 weeks after the start of the treatment), and T2 (at 8 weeks). In order to compare groups, the ANOVA and Friedman tests were adopted.Group A patients had a more rapid and statistically significant improvement trend in VAS (P <0.001), ASES scale (P <0.001), and a higher level of satisfaction to treatment assessed by RMS (P<0.001) than group B in the short term.ConclusionsThe study showed that combined treatment decreases the recovery time of the shoulder involved in terms of pain and motor function in the short term. However, these results shall be confirmed by controlled randomized studies.     

Rasch analysis of a Spanish language-screening parent survey

The purpose of this study was to evaluate and refine items from a parent survey designed to screen the language skills of Spanish-speaking preschoolers. This investigation applied Rasch modeling to systematically evaluate and identify items that demonstrated favorable qualities.A set of 124 parent survey items was administered to 107 Spanish-speaking parents of preschool age children. Parents completed survey items intended to provide a global measure of preschool language abilities. Rasch analyses of the survey items were conducted using WINSTEPS.Results indicated that 59 items, all vocabulary items, fit the Rasch model. Sufficient unidimensionality was obtained, with the model accounting for 58% of the variance. Item difficulty estimates ranged from −7.43 to 4.12, with a shortage of items at both the lower ability level and at the higher ability level. Analyses of pruned and remaining items identified the type of items that may be most useful for a refined item bank. These results will inform the development of new items for a Spanish language-screening parent survey for preschool age children.

脂肪酸结合蛋白4在下肢动脉粥样硬化及介入术后再狭窄中的作用和机制

下肢动脉硬化闭塞症介入术后的主要难题是再狭窄。脂肪酸结合蛋白4(FABP4)主要由巨噬细胞分泌,促进巨噬细胞内脂质积聚,从而使巨噬细胞转化为泡沫细胞,造成动脉粥样硬化。在动脉粥样硬化闭塞介入术后,血管内皮细胞也能特异性分泌FABP4;FABP4作用于血管平滑肌细胞,使之增殖和迁移形成增生内膜,并促进炎症反应,造成介入术后再狭窄。提示FABP4可能是治疗动脉粥样硬化和介入术后再狭窄的一个重要靶点。本文简述FABP4的生物学特性与功能,并就其在动脉粥样硬化及介入术后再狭窄中的作用及机制进行综述。     

miR-1-3p在食蟹猴心肌损伤中表达水平及其与CK-MB、cTnI和NT-proBNP的相关性

目的探讨循环miR-1-3p在多柔比星诱导食蟹猴心肌损伤模型中的表达水平和诊断价值。方法选取3~5岁普通级雄性食蟹猴17只,随机分为对照组(7只)和实验组(10只),静脉注射盐酸多柔比星注射液(2.5 mg/kg)4周,收集外周血浆标本和心脏组织标本,应用液相芯片技术测定肌酸激酶同工酶(CK-MB)、肌钙蛋白I(cTnI)和NT-proBNP表达水平,且应用实时定量PCR技术测定miR-1-3p表达的水平,并进行相关性分析。结果成功建立药物致食蟹猴心肌损伤模型;两组CK-MB、cTnI和NT-proBNP水平比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);实验组miR-1-3p的表达水平在给药4周后较给药前和对照组相比明显升高(P<0.05);miR-1-3p的表达水平与CK-MB、cTnI和NT-proBNP改变呈现了相同的升高趋势,且二者之间具有明显相关性。结论miR-1-3p可作为药物引起心肌损伤的生物学诊断标志物之一。
