BACKGROUND Loneliness and isolation are associated with multiple cardiovascular diseases(CVDs),but there is a lack of research on whether they were causally linked.We conducted a Mendelian Randomization(MR)study to explore causal relationships between loneliness and isolation and multiple CVDs.METHODS Single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with loneliness and isolation were identified from a genome-wide association study(GWAS)of 455,364 individuals of European ancestry in the IEU GWAS database.Summary data for 15 CVDs were also obtained from the IEU GWAS database.We used three MR methods including inverse variance weighting,MR-Egger,and weighted median estimation to assess the causal effect of exposure on outcomes.Cochran's Q test and MR-Egger intercept test were used to evaluate the heterogeneity and pleiotropy.RESULTS MR analysis showed that loneliness and isolation were significantly associated with essential hypertension(OR=1.07,95%CI:1.03-1.12),atherosclerotic heart disease(OR=1.04;95%CI:1.02-1.06),myocardial infarction(OR=1.02;95%CI:1-1.04)and angina(OR=1.04;95%CI=1.02-1.06).No heterogeneity and pleiotropy effects were found in this study.CONCLUSIONS Causal relationship of loneliness and isolation with CVDs were found in this study. 展开更多

OBJECTIVE To determine the different clinical characteristics and outcomes of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(HCM)patients with and without hypertension(HT).METHODS A total of 696 HCM patients were included in this study and all HCM diagnoses were confirmed by the genetic test.Patients were analyzed separately in the septal reduction therapy(SRT)cohort and the non-SRT cohort.The primary endpoint was cardiovascular death and the secondary endpoint was all-cause death.Outcome analyses were conducted to evaluate the associations between HT and outcomes in HCM.Medications before enrollment and at discharge were collected in the post-hoc analyses.RESULTS HCM patients without HT were younger,had a lower body mass index,were more likely to have a family history of HCM,and had a smaller left ventricular(LV)end-diastolic diameter than those with HT in both cohorts.A thicker LV wall,a higher level of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide,and a higher extent of LV late gadolinium enhancement were additionally observed in patients without HT in the non-SRT cohort.The presence of HT did not alter the distribution pattern of late gadolinium enhancement,as well as the constituent ratio of eight disease-causing sarcomeric gene variants in both cohorts.Outcome analyses showed that in the non-SRT cohort,patients without HT had higher risks of cardiovascular death(HR=2.537,P=0.032)and all-cause death(HR=3.309,P=0.032).While such prognostic divergence was not observed in the SRT cohort.Further post-hoc analyses in the non-SRT cohort found that patients without HT received fewer non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers and angiotensinconverting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers before enrollment and at discharge.CONCLUSIONS HCM patients without HT had worse clinical conditions and higher mortality than patients with HT overall,which may result from active medical therapy in HT patients.Active SRT may have a substantial de-risking effect on patients meeting the indications. 展开更多

The present study aimed to explore the potential of artificial intelligence(AI)methodology based on magnetic resonance(MR)images to aid in the management of prostate cancer(PCa).To this end,we reviewed and summarized the studies comparing the diagnostic and predictive performance for PCa between AI and common clinical assessment methods based on MR images and/or clinical characteristics,thereby investigating whether AI methods are generally superior to common clinical assessment methods for the diagnosis and prediction fields of PCa.First,we found that,in the included studies of the present study,AI methods were generally equal to or better than the clinical assessment methods for the risk assessment of PCa,such as risk stratification of prostate lesions and the prediction of therapeutic outcomes or PCa progression.In particular,for the diagnosis of clinically significant PCa,the AI methods achieved a higher summary receiver operator characteristic curve(SROC-AUC)than that of the clinical assessment methods(0.87 vs.0.82).For the prediction of adverse pathology,the AI methods also achieved a higher SROC-AUC than that of the clinical assessment methods(0.86 vs.0.75).Second,as revealed by the radiomics quality score(RQS),the studies included in the present study presented a relatively high total average RQS of 15.2(11.0–20.0).Further,the scores of the individual RQS elements implied that the AI models in these studies were constructed with relatively perfect and standard radiomics processes,but the exact generalizability and clinical practicality of the AI models should be further validated using higher levels of evidence,such as prospective studies and open-testing datasets. 展开更多

The development of pharmaceutical analytical methods represents one of the most significant aspects of drug development. Recent advances in microfabrication and microfluidics could provide new approaches for drug analysis, including drug screening, active testing and the study of metabolism. Microfluidic chip technologies, such as lab-on-a-chip technology, three-dimensional (3D) cell culture, organs-on-chip and droplet techniques, have all been developed rapidly. Microfluidic chips coupled with various kinds of detection techniques are suitable for the high-throughput screening, detection and mechanistic study of drugs. This review highlights the latest (2010–2018) microfluidic technology for drug analysis and discusses the potential future development in this field. 展开更多

Objective To assess the test-retest reliability and criterion validity of the Simplified Chinese-character version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Long form (IPAC).-L) in urban community-dwelling adults in Hanghzou, China. Methods A total of 158 eligible participants aged 25-59 years from 6 neighbourhoods in two central districts of Hangzhou completed the IPAQ-L questionnaire twice within a 7-day interval. Half of the subjects wore pedometers during the first 7 days. Test-retest reliability was examined by comparing the first (Day 1) and the second (Day 9) survey of IPAQ-L Criterion validity was assessed by comparing IPAO,-L with pedometer data. Results Modest to good test-retest reliability was found with intraclass correlation coefficients of 0.67 for total PA, 0.37 to 0.73 for specific dimensions, and 0.56 to 0.71 for different intensities of PA. Total PA measured by IPAO.-L was moderately correlated with exercise levels (partial r = 0.27, P = 0.020) and walking distance (partial r = 0.31, P = 0.007), which were measured by a pedometer, after adjusting for gender, age, educational attainment and employment status. Conclusion Our results indicate that the IPAO.-L is a reliable and validated measure for assessing physica activity levels in this population and possibly the adult population in other mainland Chinese cities. 展开更多

Objectives:Distal segment aortic enlargement(DSAE)is a common complication that influences the long-term prognosis of type B aortic dissection(TBAD)after thoracic endovascular aortic repair(TEVAR).In this study,a multivariate analysis was performed to find potential factors predictive of DSAE.Methods:A single-center retrospective study was performed from 1999 to 2016.Included in the study were complicated TBAD patients who underwent TEVAR with uncovered residual tears.Based on the diameter of the distal segment of the uncovered aorta,we assigned patients to an enlargement group and a non-enlargement group.Data extracted from the medical records included demographic and clinical characteristics and followup computed tomography angiography data.The primary endpoints were the all-cause mortality and the presumably aortic-related events that required reintervention during the follow-up period.Results:For the 333 patients,all-cause mortality was 38(11.41%),and 76(22.82%)patients underwent reintervention.A total of 70(21.02%)patients experienced DSAE,among them were 2 patients who died of aortic rupture and 58 patients who accepted reintervention.Multivariate analysis reviewed independent risk factors of postoperative DSAE,including current smoking,the residual length of the patent false lumen,the postoperative number of dissection tears in the thoracic aorta and type III aortic arch;as well as protective factors,including the application of a restrictive bare stent(RBS),the length of covered stent in the descending thoracic aorta,and the distance from the residual first tear to the left subclavian artery(LSA).Conclusion:DSAE after TEVAR for patients with a complicated TBAD can be influenced by their current smoking habit,the residual length of patent false lumen,the postoperative number of dissection tears in the thoracic aorta and the aortic arch type.Meanwhile,RBS usage,the length of the covered stent in the descending thoracic aorta and the distance from the residual first tear to the LSA could have positive effect on the prognosis. 展开更多

Background Uncertainty remains regarding the association between body mass index(BMI)and the risk of bleeding in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation(NVAF).We aimed to investigate the association between BMI and the risk of bleeding in elderly NVAF patients taking dabigatran.Methods A total of 509 elderly NVAF patients,who were being treated at twelve centers in China from February 2015 to December 2017 and taking dabigatran,were analyzed.The exposure and outcome variables were BMI at baseline and bleeding events within the subsequent six months,respectively.Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between BMI and the risk of bleeding.Moreover,the Cox proportional hazards regression with cubic spline functions and smooth curve fitting was conducted.Results During the six-month follow-up,50 participants experienced bleeding.Every 1 kg/m^2 increase in BMI was associated with a 12%increased risk of bleeding(P=0.021).Compared to those with BMI values in Tertile 1(<22.5 kg/m^2),the adjusted hazard ratio(HR)of bleeding for participants in Tertile 2(22.5–25.3 kg/m^2)and Tertile 3(>25.3 kg/m^2)were 2.71(95%CI:1.02–7.17)and 3.5(95%CI:1.21–8.70),respectively.The Ptrend-value was significant in all models.The adjusted smooth curve showed a linear association between BMI and bleeding.None of the stratified variables showed significant effect modification on the association between BMI and bleeding(Pinteraction>0.05).Conclusions BMI was significantly and positively associated with the risk of bleeding in elderly NVAF patients treated with dabigatran. 展开更多

Objective The benefit of short-term dual antiplatelet therapy(DAPT) following second-generation drug-eluting stents implantation has not been systematically evaluated. To bridge the knowledge gap,we did a meta-analysis to assess the efficacy of ≤6 months versus ≥12 months DAPT among patients with second-generation drug-eluting stents. Methods We searched online databases and identified randomized controlled trials that assess the clinical impact of short-term DAPT(≤6 months) published before March 3,2016. The efficacy endpoints included the incidence of all-cause death,myocardial infarction,cerebrovascular accidents,and definite or probable stent thrombosis. Safety endpoint defined as major bleeding was also evaluated and discussed. Results We included 5 trials that randomized 9473 participants(49.8%,short-term DAPT duration vs. 50.2%,standard duration). A total of 9445(99.7%) patients reported the efficacy endpoints,and the safety endpoint was available from 4 studies(n=8457). There was no significant difference in efficacy endpoints between short-term and standard DAPT duration(≥12 months) [risk ratio(RR) 0.96; 95% confidence intervals(CI),0.80-1.15]. Short-term DAPT duration did not significantly increase the individual risk of all-cause death,myocardial infarction,cerebrovascular accidents,or definite or probable stent thrombosis. Although short-term DAPT obviously reduced risk of major bleeding compared with standard DAPT(RR 0.53; 95% CI,0.29-0.96),significant publication bias was found when accessing the safety endpoint of the 4 studies(Egger's test,P=0.009). Conclusions The efficacy of short-term DAPT was comparable with that of standard duration DAPT.DAPT less than 6 months may be appropriate for patients receiving second-generation drug-eluting stents implantation. 展开更多

In this study,ecofriendly and economic carboxy-terminated plant fibers(PFs)were used as adsorbents for the effective in-syringe solid phase extraction(IS-SPE)of fluoroquinolone(FQ)residues from water.Based on the thermal esterification and etherification reaction of cellulose hydroxy with citric acid(CA)and sodium chloroacetate in aqueous solutions,carboxy groups grafted onto cotton,cattail,and corncob fibers were fabricated.Compared with carboxy-terminated corncob and cotton,CA-modified cattail with more carboxy groups showed excellent adsorption capacity for FQs.The modified cattail fibers were reproducible and reusable with relative standard deviations of 3.2%-4.2% within 10 cycles of adsorptiondesorption.A good extraction efficiency of 71.3%-80.9% was achieved after optimizing the extraction condition.Based on carboxylated cattail,IS-SPE coupled with ultra-performance liquid chromatography with a photodiode array detector was conducted to analyze FQs in environmental water samples.High sensitivity with limit of detections of 0.08-0.25 mg/L and good accuracy with recoveries of 83.8%-111.7% were obtained.Overall,the simple and environment-friendly modified waste PFs have potential applications in the effective extraction and detection of FQs in natural waters. 展开更多

Soó growing in its natural habitat. There have been obtained detailed data concerning bacterial communities from rhizosphere and inner tissues of young and old tubers. It was done using the biomarker analysis method where the markers were detected by gas chromatography—mass-spectrometry. It is shown that the number of bacterial genera and the bacteria amount (105 - 108 CFU per gram of dry weight) in D. maculata microbial complexes decreases from rhizosphere to old tuber to young. At the same time all three bacterial cenoses closely resemble each other in biodiversity. Their constant members are gg. Hyphomicrobium, Methylococcus, Nitrobacter, Pseudomonas and Sphingomonas (Proteobacteria), Bacillus and Clostridium (Firmicutes), Rhodococcus and Streptomyces (Actinobacteria). There were found differences peculiar to the taxonomic structure of each microbial complex. The rhizosphere is dominated by Actinobacteria while in inner tissues Proteobacteria are prevalent. The bacteria of gg. Ochrobactrum, Xanthomonas, Butyrivibrio, Corynebacterium, Mycobacterium, Propionibacterium, Sphingobacterium and specific iron reducers were shown to belong to rhizosphere community. Genera of Agrobacterium and Bifidobacterium were found only in the endophytic microbiota of the young tuber while g. Aeromonas 展开更多

It is a relatively uncommon disease. Patients with cardiac amyloidosis clinically present with rapidly progressive heart failure. Case Presentation: We present a case of 64-year-old man with multiple episodes of chest discomfort accompanied sometimes with dyspnoea for the past several months. A non-specific ST-T changes with low voltage limb leads on ECG, a diastolic dysfunction with preserved ejection fraction on echocardiography, increased troponin and BNP, increased serum λ/κ light chain ratio led us to highly suspect amyloidosis with cardiac involvement. Abdominal fat pad biopsy confirmed the amyloid type change of subcutaneous fat, with immunohistochemistry revealing Lambda positive. After confirmed diagnosis of primary systemic amyloidosis with cardiac involvement, patient completed six cycles of chemotherapy with bortezomib and dexamethasone. The patient showed significant improvements after chemotherapy and supportive therapy. Conclusion: Amyloidosis is relatively fatal disease. Patients often have a short life expectancy after symptom onset. Early diagnosis is crucial to proper management and better prognosis. 展开更多

Objective:To investigate the expression of serum transforming growth factorβ2(TGF-β2)and galectin-2(Galectin-2)in patients with atrial fibrillation and its clinical significance.Methods:A total of 150 inpatients in the Department of Cardiology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from January 2019 to June 2019 were selected,including 84 patients in the paroxysmal atrial fibrillation group,66 patients in the persistent atrial fibrillation group,and 120 patients with sinus rhythm excluding atrial fibrillation who were hospitalized during the same period were selected as the control group.Blood routine,biochemical routine and cardiac ultrasonic morphological examination were improved after admission.In addition,the serum levels of TGF-β2 and Galectin-2 in each group were detected by Elisa and Western Blot,and the differences and clinical significance of TGF-β2 and Galectin-2 in different groups were statistically analyzed.The correlation between TGF-β2,Galectin-2 and left atrial end-diastolic diameter(LAD)was further determined by Pearson correlation analysis.By means of binary logistics regression analysis,the factors affecting atrial fibrillation were obtained.Results:Compared with the control group,age and LAD in atrial fibrillation group were significantly increased(P<0.05).The serum concentrations of TGF-β2 and galectin-2 in persistent af group were significantly increased compared with those in paroxysmal af group and control group(P<0.05),while those in control group were significantly decreased compared with paroxysmal AF group(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that TGF-β2 and Galectin-2 concentrations were significantly positively correlated with LAD size in the experimental group(P<0.05).Binary logistic regression analysis showed that TGF-β2,galectin-2 and LAD were risk factors for atrial fibrillation(P<0.05).Conclusion:TGF-β2 and Galectin-2 are closely related to the occurrence and development of atrial fibrillation.Both TGF-β2 and Galectin-2 were positively correlated with LAD.The three have a synergistic effect on the occurrence and progression of atrial inflammatory fibrosis in patients with ATRIAL fibrillation,jointly promoting mechanical and electrical remodeling of atrial,and can be used as risk factors to evaluate the occurrence and progression of atrial fibrillation. 展开更多

Background:The ideal blood pressure(BP)target for patients with atrial fibrillation(AF)is still unclear.The present study aimed to assess the effect of the baseline BP on all-cause mortality in patients with AF.Methods:This registry study included 20 emergency centers across China and consecutively enrolled patients with AF from 2008 to 2011.All participants were followed for 1 year±1 month.The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality.Results:During the follow-up,276(13.9%)all-cause deaths occurred.Kaplan-Meier curves showed that a systolic blood pressure(SBP)110 mmHg or>160 mmHg was associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality(log-rank test,P=0.014),and a diastolic blood pressure(DBP)<70 mmHg was associated with the highest risk of all-cause mortality(log-rank test,P=0.002).After adjusting for confounders,the multivariable Cox regression model suggested that the risk of all-cause mortality was increased in the group with SBP110 mmHg(hazard ratio[HR],1.963;95%confidence interval[CI],1.306-2.951),and DBP<70 mmHg(HR,1.628;95%CI,1.163-2.281).In the restricted cubic splines,relations between baseline SBP or DBP and all-cause mortality showed J-shaped associations(non-linear P<0.001 and P=0.010,respectively).The risk of all-cause mortality notably increased at a lower baseline SBP and DBP.Conclusions:Having a baseline SBP110 mmHg or DBP<70 mmHg was associated with a significantly higher risk of all-cause mortality in patients with AF.An excessively low BP may not be an optimal target for patients with AF. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Pulmonary hypertension is a rare cardiopulmonary disease,with an insidious onset that usually worsens rapidly.Amyloid light chain(AL)amyloidosis is a rare systemic disease caused by extracellular deposition of pathologic,insoluble,and proteinaceous fibrils in organs and tissues;however,it is difficult to diagnose given its varied and nonspecific symptoms.To date,rare cases of amyloidosis with pulmonary hypertension have been reported.Of note,the optimal treatments for cardiac amyloidosis complicated with pulmonary hypertension remain unclear.CASE SUMMARY We report a case of a 51-year-old woman who presented with progressively worsening dyspnea.Transthoracic echocardiography indicated severe pulmonary hypertension.Twenty-seven months after first admission,the patient returned with symptoms of progressive heart failure.A myocardial tissue sample stained with Congo red was positive,and the patient was ultimately diagnosed with AL amyloidosis with cardiac involvement.CONCLUSION Although pulmonary hypertension may be idiopathic,it is frequently associated with other conditions.In rare cases,pulmonary hypertension can be a complication of AL amyloidosis,which should be seriously considered in any adult presenting with nonspecific signs or symptoms of cardiac distress. 展开更多

Inflammatory bowel diseases(IBD)are a group of chronic relapsing gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases with significant global incidence.Although the pathomechanism of IBD has been extensively investigated,several aspects of its pathogenesis remain unclear.Long non-coding RNAs(lncRNAs)are transcripts with more than 200 nucleotides in length that have potential protein-coding functions.LncRNAs play important roles in biological processes such as epigenetic modification,transcriptional regulation and posttranscriptional regulation.In this review,we summarize recent advances in research on IBD-related lncRNAs from the perspective of the overall intestinal microenvironment,as well as their potential roles as immune regulators,diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets or agents for IBD. 展开更多
