[Method] By combining the synoptic method with the ecological environment variation, the occurrence and influence of a typical dusty weather which happened in the midwest of Hulun Buir City on May 30, 2006 were analyzed. The occurrence mechanism of dusty weather in the city was elaborated deeply, and the source of dusty weather was put forward from the ecological environment variation angle. [Result] Under the big environment background that Hulun Buir Prairie desertification increased day by day, the unusually arid climate condition in spring was the main factor that caused the dust. The serious drought and the persistent warming in the prior period of dust formation caused the loosened and dry mantle soil, the delayed turning green of pasture grass, the thickening of dry soil layer. These objective natural environments and climatic factors were the decisive elements which induced the dusty weather. The abnormal warming from the ground to the high altitude provided the thermal condition for the formation of dusty weather, and promoted the increase of atmospheric stratification instability. In addition, the existence of jet stream in the high and low altitudes played the role of momentum download on the formation of ground gale. The formation and development of ground Mongolia cyclone provided the power condition for the formation of dusty weather, and the gale was the direct element of dusty weather formation. [Conclusion] The research provided the reference comments for the prevention and control of dusty weather in the city.展开更多

However, their role in age-related cardiac remodeling and atrial fibrillation (AF) was not well understood. The present study was designed to decipher molecular mechanisms underlying age-related atrial structural remodeling and AF. Methods Three groups of dogs were studied: adult and aged dogs in sinus rhythm and with persistent AF induced by rapid atrial pacing. The expressions of microRNAs were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Pathohistological and ultrastructural changes were tested by light and electron microscopy. Apoptosis index of myocytes was detected by TUNEL. Results Samples of atrial tissue showed the abnormal pathohistological and ultrastructural changes, the accelerated fibrosis, and apoptosis with aging and/or in AF dogs. Compared to the adult group, the expressions of microRNAs-21 and -29 were significantly increased, whereas the expressions of microRNAs-1 and -133 showed obvious downregulation tendency in the aged group. Compared to the aged group, the expressions of microRNAs-1, -21, and -29 was significantly increased in the old group in AF; contrastingly, the expressions of microRNA-133 showed obvious downregulation tendency. Conclusion These multiple aberrantly expressed microRNAs may be responsible for modulating the transition from adaptation to pathological atrial remodeling with aging and/or in AE展开更多
