Larger platelets, compared to small ones, increase platelet adhesion and aggregation, and present a higher thrombotic activity. Some studies have explored the association between MPV and the morbidity of portal vein thrombosis (PVT). The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive effect of MPV in patients with PVT by a meta-analysis. We searched Pubmed, Web of Science, SCOPUS, OVID, CNKI and CBMD from database inception to September 13, 2017. Seven studies in accordance with selection criteria were included. The extraction of basic data was independently conducted by two reviewers. The mean difference in MPV between PVT patients and controls were pooled with weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence interval of 0.88 fl (95% CI: 0.61-1.15). A random-effect model was chosen for an obvious heterogeneity in the pooling (Chi-square=27.12, df=6, P〈0.0001, F=77.9%). The sources of heterogeneity were from the difference of primary disease of participants and portal vein diameter. Taken together, our results reveal that MPV is a predictive indicator in patients with PVT.展开更多

Successfully established model animals were treated by blood-letting puncture at twelve Jing-Well points of the hand, and/or by injecting mannitol into the caudal vein twice daily. Brain tissue was collected at 24, 48 and 72 hours after modeling, and blood was collected through the retinal vein before Evans blue was injected, approximately 1 hour prior to harvesting of brain tissue. Results showed that Evans blue leakage into brain tissue and serum nitric oxide synthase activity were significantly increased in model rats. Treatment with blood-letting punctures at twelve Jing-Well points of the hand and/or injection of mannitol into the caudal vein reduced the amount of Evans blue leakage into the brain tissue and serum nitric oxide synthase activity to varying degrees. There was no significant difference between single treatment and combined treatment. Experimental findings indicate that blood-letting punctures at twelve Jing-Well points of the hand can decrease blood-brain barrier permeability and serum nitric oxide synthase activity in rats following middle cerebral artery occlusion, and its effect is similar to that of mannitol injection alone and Jing-Well points plus mannitol injection.展开更多

文摘In this study,we conducted an observation experiment from May 1 to June 30,2018 in Zhengzhou,a major city in central China,where ground ozone(O3)pollution has become serious in recent years.The concentrations of O3 and its precursors,as well as H2O_(2) and meteorological data were obtained from the urban site(Yanchang,YC),suburban(Zhengzhou University,ZZU)and background sites(Ganglishuiku,GLSK).Result showed that the rates of O3 concentration exceeded Chinese National Air Quality Standard GradeⅡ(93.3 ppbv)were 59.0%,52.5%,and 55.7%at the above three sites with good consistency,respectively,indicating that O3 pollution is a regional problem in Zhengzhou.The daily peak O3 appeared at 15:00-16:00,which was opposite to VOCs,NOx,and CO and consistent with H2O_(2).The exhaustive statistical analysis of meteorological factors and chemical effects on O3 formation at YC was advanced.The high concentration of precursors,high temperature,low relative humidity,and moderately high wind speed together with the wind direction dominated by south and southeast wind contribute to urban O3 episodes in Zhengzhou.O3 formation analysis showed that reactive alkenes such as isoprene and cis-2-butene contributed most to O3 formation.The VOCs/NOx ratio and smog production model were used to determine O3-VOC-NOx sensitivity.The O3 formation in Zhengzhou during early summer was mainly under VOC-limited and transition regions alternately,which implies that the simultaneous emission reduction of alkenes and NOx is effective in reducing O3 pollution in Zhengzhou.
