La cafeína atenúa daño hepático y mejora signos neurológicos en un modelo de encefalopatía hepática con ratas

Introduction and aimsCirrhosis is the common outcome of liver diseases. It can be decompensated and lead to the development of complications, such as encephalopathy. Hyperammonemia that develops due to liver dysfunction is etiopathologically related to hepatic encephalopathy. Caffeine increases the activity of the urea cycle in the liver, augmenting ammonia degradation. By antagonizing adenosine receptors, it also has a hepatoprotective effect, impeding the formation of fibrosis, as well as having a stimulating effect on the central nervous system. The present study analyzed the effects of caffeine on the progression of cholestatic liver fibrosis and hepatic encephalopathy.Materials and methodsAn experimental model of cholestatic liver fibrosis, through common bile duct ligature, and of hepatic encephalopathy, through the administration of a high-protein diet, was constructed. Male Wistar rats (n = 32) were equally divided into 4 groups. The experiment lasted 28 days, with the administration of 50 mg/kg/day of caffeine. Laboratory tests, histologic analyses of the liver and encephalon, open field tests (OFTs), and daily behavioral analyses were carried out.ResultsThe ligated animals treated with caffeine had lower mean transaminase levels and improved histologic aspects of the liver and encephalon. The untreated ligated animals were clearly lethargic and apathetic at the last week of the experiment, confirmed by reduced exploratory activity during the OFT.ConclusionCaffeine improved the microarchitecture of the liver and encephalon of the cirrhotic animals and prevented the decrease in exploratory behavior of the animals during the OFT.     

恐惧疾病进展在肺癌患者配偶希望水平与生活质量间的中介效应

目的探讨恐惧疾病进展在肺癌患者配偶希望水平与生活质量间的中介作用。方法采取方便抽样法,选取2019年11月—2021年1月新疆某三级甲等肿瘤专科医院165例肺癌患者配偶作为研究对象,采用Herth希望指数量表(Herth Hope Index,HHI)、癌症患者恐惧疾病进展简化量表(Fear ofProgression Questionnaire-Short Form,FoP-Q-SF)、生活质量核心量表(European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire,QLQ-C30)进行问卷调查,运用Pearson相关性分析肺癌患者配偶恐惧疾病进展、希望水平、生活质量之间的相关性;采用AMOS23.0软件建立结构方程模型,并用偏差校正的非参数百分位Bootstrap程序对模型进行检验。结果共有162例肺癌患者配偶完成研究,HHI总分为(26.28±2.90)分,FoP-Q-SF总分为(43.74±4.68)分,QLQ-C30总分为(55.29±14.26)分。相关分析显示,肺癌患者配偶生活质量与希望水平呈正相关(r=0.541,P<0.001)与恐惧疾病进展呈负相关(r=-0.469,P<0.001);希望水平与恐惧疾病进展呈负相关(r=-0.574,P<0.001)。希望水平对生活质量有显著正向效应(β=0.428,P<0.001),并通过恐惧疾病进展的部分中介作用间接影响其生活质量,中介效应占总效应的33.12%。结论希望水平对肺癌患者配偶生活质量有直接预测作用,恐惧疾病进展在希望水平与生活质量之间起到部分中介作用。     

Correlación genotipo-fenotipo en miocardiopatía hipertrófica: un estudio multicéntrico en Portugal y España sobre la variante p.Arg21Leu de TPM1

Introduction and objectivesTPM1 is one of the main hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) genes. Clinical information on carriers is relatively scarce, limiting the interpretation of genetic findings in individual patients. Our aim was to establish genotype-phenotype correlations of the TPM1 p.Arg21Leu variant in a serie of pedigrees.MethodsTPM1 was evaluated by next-generation sequencing in 10 561 unrelated probands with inherited heart diseases. Familial genetic screening was performed by the Sanger method. We analyzed TPM1 p.Arg21Leu pedigrees for cosegregation, clinical characteristics, and outcomes. We also estimated the geographical distribution of the carrier families in Portugal and Spain.ResultsThe TPM1 p.Arg21Leu variant was identified in 25/4099 (0.61%) HCM-cases, and was absent in 6462 control individuals with other inherited cardiac phenotypes (P < .0001). In total, 83 carriers (31 probands) were identified. The combined LOD score for familial cosegregation was 3.95. The cumulative probability of diagnosis in carriers was 50% at the age of 50 years for males, and was 25% in female carriers. At the age of 70 years, 17% of males and 46% of female carriers were unaffected. Mean maximal left ventricular wall thickness was 21.4 ± 7.65 mm. Calculated HCM sudden death risk was low in 34 carriers (77.5%), intermediated in 8 (18%), and high in only 2 (4.5%). Survival free of cardiovascular death or heart transplant was 87.5% at 50 years. Six percent of carriers were homozygous and 18% had an additional variant. Family origin was concentrated in Galicia, Extremadura, and northern Portugal, suggesting a founder effect.ConclusionsTPM1 p.Arg21Leu is a pathogenic HCM variant associated with late-onset/incomplete penetrance and a generally favorable prognosis.

Lower incidence of hospital-treated infections in infants under 3 months of age vaccinated with BCG

BackgroundLive vaccines potentially have non-specific effects that protect against other infections than those the vaccines are targeted against. The national vaccination program (NVP) in Finland was changed on September 1st, 2006: before BCG vaccine was given to all newborn babies and afterwards to babies in risk groups only. We used this natural experiment to study the non-specific effects of BCG in the frame of NVP using before-after design.MethodsWe compared the incidence of several outcomes obtained from Finnish health registers between children born between July 1st, 2004, and June 30th, 2006 (BCG-eligible) and an age- and season-matched reference cohort born between July 1st, 2007, and June 30th, 2009 (BCG-non-eligible) using Poisson regression. These cohorts were restricted to full-term children whose parents were born in Finland. Follow-up began at birth and lasted 3 months, which is the scheduled age for DTaP-IPV-Hib vaccination, and from 4 months until first birthday. The outcomes included all infections, pneumonia and injuries as a negative control outcome.ResultsThe incidence rate ratio (IRR) of the BCG-eligible cohort (N = 93,658) compared to BCG-non-eligible cohort (N = 94,712) for hospital-diagnosed infections was 0.89 (95 %Cl 0.86–0.93) for the 3-month follow-up. The decrease was mainly caused by respiratory infections. In 4–12 months follow-up the BCG-eligible had slightly more infections than BCG-non-eligible children (IRR 1.03, 1.01–1.06).ConclusionsBCG vaccination was associated with a lower incidence of all hospital-diagnosed infections during the first three months of life. The difference cannot be attributed to lung tuberculosis, since only few paediatric cases occurred in Finland during 2000s. The disappearance of non-specific effect after administration of an inactivated vaccine is compatible with previous studies.

酸性氧化电位水在临床伤口治疗中的应用效果

摘要：目的 观察和比较酸性氧化电位水在临床伤口治疗中的作用与效果。 方法 将四川大学华西医院伤口治疗中心2018年3月至2019年1月接诊的慢性伤口患者随机分为观察组和对照组，观察组使用酸性氧化电位水设备生产的酸化水冲洗创面，对照组使用无菌生理盐水冲洗创面，并连续两周留取伤口分泌物涂片镜检。患者创面根据我院伤口治疗处理规范，采用标准湿性疗法，每组患者观察伤口治疗效果3周，观察指标：伤口床细菌种类及数量变化、伤口疼痛评分、伤口愈合计分、伤口治愈率及治愈时间。 结果 两组液体冲洗后，创面细菌种类及数量均有改变，观察组较对照组更为显著（P＜0.01）。两组PUSH评分数周治疗后均可见显著下降，尤以观察组下降更为明显（P＜0.05）。观察组伤口明显缩小（P<0.05）。观察组治愈率高于对照组( 74.41% vs 48.48% ， P ＜0.05) ，愈合时间缩短 13 d( P＜0.05) 。 结论 酸化水通过高效的杀菌能力，提供清洁的创面微环境，有效地促进伤口愈合，提高伤口治愈率，缩短伤口治愈时间，但不会增加患者的疼痛体验，可作为常规的创面冲洗液。     

癌相关成纤维细胞在肿瘤葡萄糖代谢中的作用

瓦博格效应认为,即便在氧气充足时,肿瘤仍大量利用葡萄糖进行有氧糖酵解,产生乳酸和少量ATP。虽产能效率低,但中间产物有利于改造肿瘤微环境,促进肿瘤恶性进展。近年发现,成纤维细胞作为肿瘤间质的重要组成部分,在肿瘤细胞诱导下具有癌相关成纤维细胞（cancer-associated fibroblast, CAF）表型,通过自身线粒体功能障碍、自噬而持续向肿瘤细胞提供生物大分子合成原料,用以促进肿瘤增殖、侵袭、转移、耐药。相反,肿瘤细胞自身则提高线粒体代谢水平,进行氧化磷酸化,此现象被命名为反瓦博格效应。CAF与酸化的微环境驱动肿瘤细胞自发选择葡萄糖代谢方式、促进肿瘤恶性进展。
