Methods Eighty-five severe-type patients(severe group) and 71 critical-type patients(critical group) were enrolled in this study. The frequency of CRRT was compared between the two groups; the frequency of CRRT treated with and without heparin anticoagulation and the frequency of hemorrhage and channel blood clotting induced by the two anticoagulant strategies were observed. Results The frequency of CRRT in the critical group was higher than that in the severe group(P < 0.001). The frequency of CRRT initiated during the overlapping phases in the critical group was significantly higher than that of the severe group(P = 0.032). The total times of CRRT was 103, and 70 of them were treated with heparin anticoagulation. The frequencies of hemorrhage induced by heparin anticoagulation and no heparinization were 16 and 0, respectively, and the frequencies of channel blood clotting were 2 and 4, respectively. Conclusions CRRT has been used extensively in the critical-type patients with HFRS. The heparin anticoagulation and no anticoagulant strategies should be used more rationally in patients treated with CRRT, according to the clinical characteristics of the disease.展开更多

When evaluated as the anode of LIB, the synthetic CoWO4–RGO nanocomposite exhibits better Li^+ storage properties than pure CoWO4 nanostructures synthesized without graphene oxide(GO). Specifically, it delivers a high initial specific discharge capacity of1100 mAh·g^-1 at a current density of 100 mA·g^-1, and a good reversible performance of 567 mAh·g^-1 remains after the 100th cycle. Moreover, full battery using CoWO4–RGO as anode and commercial LiCoO2 powder as cathode was assembled, which can be sufficient to turn on a 3 V,10 mW blue light emitting diode(LED). The enhanced electrochemical performance for lithium storage can be attributed to the three-dimensional(3D) structure of the CoWO4–RGO nanocomposite, which can accommodate huge volume changes, and synergetic effect between CoWO4 and reduced graphite oxide(RGO) nanosheets,including an increased conductivity, shortened Li^+ diffusion path.展开更多

文摘Impaired brain glucose metabolism is an early indicator of Alzheimer’s disease(AD);however,the fundamental mechanism is unknown.In this study,we found a substantial decline in isocitrate dehydrogenase 3β(IDH3β)levels,a critical tricarboxylic acid cycle enzyme,in AD patients and AD-transgenic mice’s brains.Further investigations demonstrated that the knockdown of IDH3βinduced oxidation-phosphorylation uncoupling,leading to reduced energy metabolism and lactate accumulation.The resulting increased lactate,a source of lactyl,was found to promote histone lactylation,thereby enhancing the expression of paired-box gene 6(PAX6).As an inhibitory transcription factor of IDH3β,the elevated PAX6 in turn inhibited the expression of IDH3β,leading to tau hyperphosphorylation,synapse impairment,and learning and memory deficits resembling those seen in AD.In AD-transgenic mice,upregulating IDH3βand downregulating PAX6 were found to improve cognitive functioning and reverse AD-like pathologies.Collectively,our data suggest that impaired oxidative phosphorylation accelerates AD progression via a positive feedback inhibition loop of IDH3β-lactate-PAX6-IDH3β.Breaking this loop by upregulating IDH3βor downregulating PAX6 attenuates AD neurodegeneration and cognitive impairments.
