Research progress in mechanobiology of the aorta
[Journal Article]Liu Kang, Duan Hongyan, Xia Jianming-China Medicine2025, No.01

Abstract:As the main artery of human blood circulation,the aorta undertakes the key function of trans-porting and distributing the blood pumped by the heart to various organs of the whole body.During blood flow,mechanical stresses are generated in the aorta,mainly including shear stress and mechanical stretch.Physiological mechanical stress maintains the physiological state of blood vessels,while pathological mechanical stress is closely related to the pathological changes of aortic diseases and is one of the risk factors for vascular events.Abnormal mechanical stress disrupts the normal function of endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells through a variety of mechanisms,thereby mediating the initiation and evolution of aortic diseases.This article reviews the latest progress in aortic mechanobiology,aiming to provide new ideas and directions for the prevention and treatment of aortic diseases.

Abstract:Objective To discuss the differential value of CD4+/CD8+ratio combined with cytokines in active and inactive pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods Totally 107 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis treated in Hebei Chest Hospital from January 2021 to August 2023 were selected as research objects.They were divided into inactive pulmonary tuberculosis group(53 cases)and active pulmonary tuberculosis group(54 cases)according to the condition.The levels of serum cytokines and CD4+/CD8+ratio were compared between the two groups.The relationship between serum cytokine level and CD4+/CD8+ratio in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis was analyzed by stratified regression analysis.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors affecting the occurrence of active pulmonary tuberculosis.The effect of the interaction between serum cytokines and CD4+/CD8+ratio on the occurrence of active pulmonary tuberculosis was analyzed.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the value of serum cytokines and CD4+/CD8+ratio alone and in combination in the differential diagnosis of active and inactive pulmonary tuberculosis.Results The levels of serum interleukin-6(IL-6),interferon-γ(INF-γ),IL-8 and CD4+/CD8+ratio in active pulmonary tuberculosis group were significantly higher than those in inactive pulmonary tuberculosis group(all P<0.05).The results of stratified regression analysis showed that IL-6,INF-y and IL-8 all had significant positive effects on CD4+/CD8+ratio(all P<0.05).The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the increased levels of serum IL-6,INF-γ,IL-8 and CD4+/CD8+ratio were the risk factors of active pulmonary tuberculosis(all P<0.05).The results of interaction analysis showed that there was no multiplicative or additive interaction between serum IL-6,INF-γ,IL-8 and CD4+/CD8+ratio before and after adjusting sex and age(all P>0.05).The areas under the ROC curve of IL-6,INF-γ,IL-8,CD4+/CD8+ratio and their combination were 0.746,0.771,0.805,0.707 and 0.850,respectively,the combination of the four has the highest efficacy in distinguishing active and inactive pulmonary tuberculosis.Conclusion The levels of serum IL-6,INF-γ,IL-8 and peripheral blood CD4+/CD8+ratio in patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis were higher than those in patients with inactive pulmonary tuberculosis.The level of serum cytokines can affect the cellular immunity of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis,based on this,active and inactive pulmonary tuberculosis can be distinguished.

Impacts of esmolol combined with carvedilol on heart rate-systolic pressure product and serum Sestrin2 level in patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease myocardial ischemia
[Journal Article]He Gaihong, Li Zhen-China Medicine2024, No.10

Abstract:Objective To investigate the impacts of esmolol combined with carvedilol on the heart rate-systolic blood pressure product(RPP)and serum Sestrin2 level in patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease(CHD)and myocardial ischemia.Methods A total of 106 patients with CHD and myocardial ischemia admitted to Yulin Hospital,First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from March 2021 to March 2023 were selected.According to the random number table method,they were divided into the observation group and the control group,with 53 cases in each group.The control group was treated with carvedilol,and the observation group was treated with esmolol on the basis of the control group.Both groups were treated for 8 weeks.The total effective rate,electrocardiogram examination results,myocardial oxygen supply related indicators,serum Sestrin2 levels and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate of observation group was higher than that of control group[90.6%(48/53)vs 75.5%(40/53)](P=0.038).After treatment,the total myocardial ischemic load,the number and duration of ST segment depression within 24 h,heart rate,systolic blood pressure and RPP levels in the two groups were lower than those before treatment,and those in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(all P<0.05).After treatment,the serum Sestrin2 levels in both groups were lower than those before treatment,and the serum Sestrin2 level in the observation group was lower than that in the control group[(8.1±1.0)μg/L vs(10.1±1.6)μg/L](all P<0.001).The total incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was lower than that in the control group[11.3%(6/53)vs 47.2%(25/53)](P<0.001).Conclusion The combination of esmolol and carvedilol is effective in the treatment of patients with CHD and myocardial ischemia,which can effectively improve the myocardial ischemia status of patients,regulate heart rate and blood pressure levels,reduce myocardial oxygen consumption,and has fewer adverse reactions.

[Journal Article]Li Qi, Liu Ziyu, Zhao Dandan et al.-China Medicine2025, No.03

Abstract:Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,endoscopic findings and influencing factors of rebleeding in elderly patients with peptic ulcer complicated with bleeding.Methods A total of 182 elderly patients with peptic ulcer and bleeding who were hospitalized in Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University from January 2022 to August 2024 were retrospectively collected.According to the prognosis,they were divided into rebleeding group(12 cases)and non-rebleeding group(170 cases).The general data,laboratory examination results and endoscopic manifestations of the two groups were compared.Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of rebleeding in elderly patients with peptic ulcer and bleeding.Results The incidence rate of regular abdominal pain in the rebleeding group was higher than that in the non-rebleeding group(P<0.05).The albumin level in the rebleeding group was lower than that in the non-rebleeding group[(27±6)g/L vs(32±5)g/L](P=0.001).The proportions of Forrest grade Ⅰ a-Ⅱ b,ulcer diameter ≥2 cm and retrobulbar ulcer in the rebleeding group were higher than those in the non-rebleeding group(all P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that regular abdominal pain was an independent risk factor for rebleeding in elderly patients with peptic ulcer and bleeding(P<0.05),and albumin was an independent protective factor(P<0.05).Conclusion Regular abdominal pain is an independent risk factor for rebleeding in elderly patients with peptic ulcer and bleeding,and albumin level is an independent protective factor.
