METHODS: Sixty-six Hpylori-infected active DU patients were consecutively enrolled to receive one-week triple therapy (rabeprazole, amoxicillin and metronidazole) and then one-month rabeprazole therapy. They were asked back to determine ulcer and Hpylori status using endoscopy one month later. Thirty-seven healthy controls (H pylori +/-:17/20) were enrolled for comparison. Blood samples were collected in each visit to measure plasma ET-1 and nitrate/nitrite levels using an enzyme immunoassay kit. RESULTS: Sixty DU patients finished trial per protocol. The ulcer healing and Hpylori-eradication rates were 86.7% and 83.3%, respectively. Plasma ET-1 level in DU patients was higher than that of Hpylori-negative and positive controls (3.59±0.96 vs0.89±0.54 vs0.3±0.2 pg/mL,P<0.01), while nitrate/nitrite levels among them were also significantly different (8.55±0.71 vs5.27±0.68 vs 6.39±0.92 μmol/L, P<0.05). H pylori eradication diminished ET-1 levels (3.64±0.55 vs2.64±0.55 pg/mL, P<0.01) but elevated nitrate/ nitrite level (8.16±0.84 vs11.41±1.42 umol/L,P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Both plasma ET-1 and nitrate/nitrite levels increase in active DU patients. After an effective H pylori eradication, DU healing is associated with diminished blood ET-1 level and elevated nitrate/nitrite level.展开更多

Methods: The early (at 24 hours after injury) plasma concentrations of ET, NO and AVP were measured with radioimmunoassay and Green technique in 48 cases of acute moderate (GCS≤8 in 27cases ) or severe (GCS>8 in 21 cases) cerebral injury (Group A), in 42 cases of non cerebral injury (Group B) and in 38 normal individuals (Group C), respectively. Results: The early plasma concentrations of ET ( 109.73 ng/L±12.61 ng/L ), NO ( 92.82 μmol/L± 18.21 μmol/L ) and AVP ( 49.78 ng/L±14.29 ng/L ) in Group A were higher than those in Group B ( 67.90 ng/L ±11.33 ng/L , 52.66 μmol/L±12.82 μmol/L and 29.93 ng/L±12.11 ng/L , respectively, P<0.01 ) and Group C ( 50.65 ng/L±17.12 ng/L , 36.12 μmol/L ±12.16 μmol/L and 5.18 ng/L ± 4.18 ng/L , respectively, P<0.001 ). The amounts of ET, NO and AVP in patients with severe cerebral injury were 116.18 ng/L± 18.12 ng/L , 108.19 μmol/L±13.28 μmol/L and 58.13 ng/L±16.78 ng/L , respectively, which were significantly higher than that of the patients with moderate cerebral injury ( 92.33 ng/L±16.32 ng/L , 76.38 μmol/L ±12.71 μmol/L and 36.18 ng/L±12.13 ng/L respectively, P<0.01 ). The early levels of ET, NO and AVP in Group A were negatively related to the GCS scales. The amounts of ET, NO and AVP were 126.23 ng/L± 15.23 ng/L , 118.18 μmol/L±10.12 μmol/L and 63.49 ng/L±14.36 ng/L respectively in patients with subdural hematoma, which were significantly higher than those in patients with epidural hematoma ( 81.13 ng/L ±12.37 ng/L , 68.02 μmol/L±13.18 μmol/L and 45.63 ng/L±12.41 ng/L respectively, P<0.01 ). The plasma concentrations of ET, NO and AVP in stable duration (at 336 hours after injury) in Group A and Group B were similar to those in Group C. Conclusions: ET, NO and AVP were related to the pathophysiological process that occurs in the early stage of acute cerebral injury and the values of ET, NO and AVP correlate positively with the clinical manifestations. The changes of plasma ET, NO and AVP can be regarded as important indices to assess the severity of acute cerebral injury.展开更多

文摘AIM: To investigate the effect of Helicobacter pylori eradication on endothelin-1 (ET-1) and nitric oxide (NO) in duodenal ulcer (DU) patients. METHODS: Sixty-six Hpylori-infected active DU patients were consecutively enrolled to receive one-week triple therapy (rabeprazole, amoxicillin and metronidazole) and then one-month rabeprazole therapy. They were asked back to determine ulcer and Hpylori status using endoscopy one month later. Thirty-seven healthy controls (H pylori +/-:17/20) were enrolled for comparison. Blood samples were collected in each visit to measure plasma ET-1 and nitrate/nitrite levels using an enzyme immunoassay kit. RESULTS: Sixty DU patients finished trial per protocol. The ulcer healing and Hpylori-eradication rates were 86.7% and 83.3%, respectively. Plasma ET-1 level in DU patients was higher than that of Hpylori-negative and positive controls (3.59±0.96 vs0.89±0.54 vs0.3±0.2 pg/mL,P<0.01), while nitrate/nitrite levels among them were also significantly different (8.55±0.71 vs5.27±0.68 vs 6.39±0.92 μmol/L, P<0.05). H pylori eradication diminished ET-1 levels (3.64±0.55 vs2.64±0.55 pg/mL, P<0.01) but elevated nitrate/ nitrite level (8.16±0.84 vs11.41±1.42 umol/L,P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Both plasma ET-1 and nitrate/nitrite levels increase in active DU patients. After an effective H pylori eradication, DU healing is associated with diminished blood ET-1 level and elevated nitrate/nitrite level.

Compared with group C,the total writhing score of rats in group D and group E decreased（both p 0.01）. Compared with group D,the total writhing score of rats in group E decreased（p 0.05）. Comparison of ET-1 level： compared with（4.80 ± 0.47） in group A,the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group B（7.57±0.69） significantly increased（P 0.01）. Compared with group B, the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group C（6.20 ±0.50）,group D（5.67 ±0.29） and group E（5.16±0.33） obviously decreased（all p 0.01）. Compared with group C, the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group D and group E obviously decreased（p 0.05, p 0.01）. Compared with group D, the ET-1 level in uterine tissues of rats in group Eobviously decreased（p 0.05）. Comparison of NO level： compared with（6.63±1.83） in group A, the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group B（1.62 ±0.58） significantly decreased（p 0.01）. Compared with group B, the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group C（3.60±0.59）,group D（4.77 ±0.67） and group E（5.99±0.63） obviously increased（all p 0.01）. Compared with group C,the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group Dand group E obviously increased（p 0.05, p 0.01）. Compared with group D, the NO level in uterine tissues of rats in group E obviously increased（p 0.01）.Conclusion： The analgesic effect of mild moxibustion at different intervention times on cold-damp coagulation and stagnation type dysmenorrhea rats was different, which was the most significant in pre-instant moxibustion group. One of the mechanisms of action may be related with the adjustment of abnormal levels of ET-1 and NO.
