Objective To observe the influence of rAAV-mediated antisense vascular endothelial growth factor (rAAV-aVEGF165) on the expression of retinal VEGF in diabetic rats. Methods 40 Sprague-Dawley rats induced diabetic rat model by intraperitoneal injection with streptozotocin (STZ). 32 rats were involved in study besides death and blood sugar recovery in experimental process, 16 spragud-Dawleg (SD) rats were received intravitreal injection with rAAV-aVEGF165 (1010 pfu) as experimental group, another group of Sprague-Dawleg (SD) rats were injected with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) as control group. One and five month after model establishment, the expression of retinal VEGF was evaluate by immunhistochemistry and Western blot; the retinal vasular was examined by transmission electron microscopy. Results On 1 month,the expression of retinal VEGF was lowest in each group. On 5 month, the expression of retinal VEGF was decreased in experimental group which compared to control, the difference are statistically significant (t=23.87,Plt;0.01). The transmission electron microscopy results showed that retina has no obvious chages in experimental group, however,contral group showed fragmental thickening and splitting of basement membrane, swelling and deformation of endothelia cells,fingerlike prcess into the capillary cavity,and uneven distibution of heterochromatin in pericytes. Conclusion rAAV-aVEGF165 can reduce the expression of retinal VEGF thereby preventing occurrence and development of diabetic retinopathy. rAAV is an effective vectors of eye antisense gene.

Objective To observe the expression of p53, bcl-2 genes, vascular endothelial cell growth factor(VEGF), basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF), insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), and the receptors of these factors of retinal vascular endothelial cells (VECs) of 1- to 20-week diabetic rats, and the relationship between the expressions and cell cycle arrest.Methods Retinal sections of diabetic rats induced by alloxan were immunohistochemically stained and observed by light microscopy (LM) and electron microscopy (EM). Dot blotting and Western blotting were used to determine the expression of mRNA, proteins of p53 and bcl-2. Results Under LM, immunohistochemical positive expression of p53 and bcl-2 were found on the vessels of ganglion cell layer and inner nuclear layer of retinae of 8- to 20-week diabetic rats; under EM, these substances were observed depositing in VECs. The retinal VECs also expressed VEGF, bFGF, IGF-I and their receptors. There was no positive expression of other cell types in these retinae, all cell types of retinae in control group, or all cells of retinae of diabetic rats with the course of disease of 1 to 6 weeks. The result of dot blotting revealed that retinal tissue of 20-week diabetic rat expressed p53 and bcl-2 mRNA, and the result of Western blotting revealed that they also expressed p53 and bcl-2 proteins. But retinal tissues of control group did not. Positive expression of bax was not found in the retinae in control group or 1- to 20-week diabetic rats. Conclusion p53, bcl-2 may introduce cell cycle arrest of VECs of retinae in 8- to 20-week diabetic rats. High glucose might stimulate the expression of VEGF, bFGF, IGF-I and their receptors, and the growth factors may keep VECs surviving by self-secretion. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,2003,19:29-33)

ObjectiveTo explore the family function on patients with depression and its influential factors, in order to provide a basis for family support treatment for the patients. MethodsA total of 122 depressed patients from Mental Health Center of West China Hospital between February 2012 and June 2013, and one of their family members were chosen to be the study subjects. Another 122 non-clinical controls and one of their family members were recruited from a community near Sichuan University were regarded as the controls. All the subjects were asked to finish the Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire (Q-LES-Q), the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), and the Family Assessment Device (FAD). Additionally, the patients received a diagnostic interview to provide the features of their depression. ResultsThe general average score of Q-LES-Q in families with depressed patients was significantly lower than that in the control families (t=-6.243, P<0.01). The general average score of each dimension in FAD for families with depressed patients was significantly higher than that for control families (t=3.644, 3.872, 2.694, 3.369, 5.369, 4.941, 5.241; P<0.01). According to FAD health division scoring, the unhealthy proportion in terms of communication, emotional reaction, emotional link, behavioral control and general function for families with depressed patients was significantly higher than that for control families (χ2=6.778, 23.698, 26.580, 39.875, 17.123, 10.712; P<0.05). The Q-LES-Q scores and the five FAD dimensional scores (except role and affective involvement) were negatively correlated (r=-0.388, -0.188, -0.200, -0.276, -0.370; P<0.05). The scores of perceived social support for families with depressed patients had significant positive correlations with the scores of all FAD dimensions except affective involvement (r=0.363, 0.345, 0.244, 0.418, 0.328, 0.457; P<0.05). The risk factors for unhealthy family function included: female (OR=1.141, P<0.05), poor education (OR=0.948, P<0.01), first-episode (OR=1.416, P<0.05), suicidal attempt (OR=1.014, P<0.05), incomplete suicide (OR=1.367, P<0.01) and depression episode number (OR=1.035, P<0.05). ConclusionDepression is associated with impaired family function in Chinese families. Female, poor education, first episode of depression, suicidal attempt, incomplete suicide and depression episode number are the influential factors for family function on patients with depression.
ObjectiveTo observe the expression of Rap1, guanosine triphosphate-Rap1 (GTP-Rap1), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and β-catenin in experimental choroidal neovascularization (CNV).MethodsForty-two brown Norwegian rats were randomly divided into a blank control group (7 rats) and a model group (35 rats). Both eyes were enrolled. The CNV model was established by holmium ion laser photocoagulation in the model group. At 3, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after photocoagulation, fluorescein fundus angiography (FFA) and choroidal vascular smear were performed to observe the degree of fluorescein leakage and CNV area in rats; Western blot and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were used to detect the expression of Rap1, GTP-Rap1, VEGF, β-catenin and mRNA in CNV.ResultsThe results of FFA examination showed that a large disc-shaped fluorescein leaked in the photo-condensation spot 14 days after photocoagulation. Laser confocal microscopy showed that compared with 7 days after photocoagulation, CNV area increased at 14, 21, 28 days after photocoagulation, and the difference were statistically significant (t=3.725, 5.532, 3.605;P<0.05). Western blot showed that there was no significant difference in the relative expression of Rap1 protein in CNV at different time points after photocoagulation between the two groups (P=0.156). Compared with the blank control group, the relative expression of GTP-Rap1 protein was significantly decreased, the relative expression of VEGF and β-catenin protein were significantly increased in the model group (P=0.000). The results of RT-PCR showed that there was no significant difference in the relative expression of Rap1 mRNA at different time points after photocoagulation between the two groups (P=0.645), but there were significant difference in the relative expression of β-catenin mRNA (P=0.000). At 7, 14, 21 and 28 days after photocoagulation, there were significant difference in the relative expression of GTP-Rap1 and VEGF mRNA between the two groups (P=0.000).ConclusionsThe expression of GTP-Rap1 in experimental CNV is significantly lower than that in normal rats.
ObejectiveTo summarize the research progress of risk factors contributing to postoperative pulmonary infection in gastric cancer, so as to provide reference for medical decision-makers and clinical practitioners to effectively control the incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection in gastric cancer, ensure medical safety and improve the quality of life of patients. MethodThe researches at home and abroad on the factors contributing to pulmonary infection after gastric cancer surgery in recent years were reviewed and analyzed. ResultsThere was currently no uniform diagnostic standard for pulmonary infection. The incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection for gastric cancer varied in the different countries and regions. The pathogenic bacteria that caused postoperative pulmonary infection of gastric cancer was mainly gram-negative bacteria, especially Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter boulardii, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The patient’s age, history of smoking, preoperative pulmonary function, preoperative laboratory indicators, preoperative comorbidities, preoperative nutritional status, preoperative weakness, anesthesia, tumor location, surgical modality, duration of surgery, blood transfusion, indwelling gastrointestinal decompression tube, wound pain, and so on were possible factors associated with postoperative pulmonary infection of gastric cancer. ConclusionsThe incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection for gastric cancer is not promising. Based on the recognition of related factors, it is proposed that it is necessary to develop a risk prediction model for postoperative pulmonary infection of gastric cancer to identify high-risk patients. In addition to the conventional intervention strategy, taking the pathogenesis as the breakthrough, finding the key factors that lead to the occurrence of postoperative pulmonary infection of gastric cancer is the fundamental way to reduce its occurrence.
ObjectiveTo investigate the health status of elderly peptic ulcer patients in Haikou city and its influencing factors. MethodsSeventy-eight elderly peptic ulcer patients treated in the Department of Gastroenterology, Haikou Hospital between February 2012 and December 2014 were chosen to be the observation group, and at the same time, another 78 healthy elderly people examined in the same hospital were designated as the control group. The general information and health status of the study subjects were investigated for correlation analysis. ResultsThe health status, physical function, body pain, life quality and mental health scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that age, smoking, high-salt diet, body mass index (BMI) were significantly associated with the incidence of peptic ulcer (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, smoking, high-salt diet, BMI were all independent risk factors for peptic ulcer occurrence (P<0.05). ConclusionThe health status of elderly peptic ulcer patients in Haikou city is relatively low. Age, smoking, high-salt diet and BMI are the major independent risk factors for the occurrence of peptic ulcer. We need to actively strengthen symptomatic prevention and intervention.
