Methods From January 2008 to April 2009, 49 patients of severe acute pancreatitis were selected and randomly divided into two groups, the observation group (25 patiens) adopted by enteral nutrition, the control group (24 patiens) adopted by total parenteral nutrition, the clinical effects of the two groups were compared and analyzed. Results The differences in the incidence of complications, infection rates and case fatality rates were not statistically significant (Pgt;0.05). The serum albumin level and prealbumin level of patients in both groups after treatment were significantly increased. Those in the observation group increased more obviously, and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Enteral nutrition in patients with severe acute pancreatitis has satisfactory clinical effects.
Objective To explore transthyretin (TTR) effect on retinal vascular endothelial cells (hREC) under high glucose and hypoxia environment. Methods hREC and human retinal pigment epithelial cell (hRPEC) were cultured at low-glucose (LG), high glucose (HG) and hypoxia. The glucose concentration was increased from 5.5 mmol/L up to 25 mmol/L, and hypoxia was induced by 200 μmol/L CoCl2. The cells were divided into LG group, LG-hypoxia group, HG group, HG-hypoxia group according to the different cell culture environment. The growth index was detected at 0, 4, 8, 16, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72 hours after cultured. Furthermore, hREC and hRPEC were also cultured with additional TTR (4 μmol/L), respectively. Then transwell co-culture system was employed to reveal the effects of hRPEC on the growth of hREC. Results At 72 hours after cultured, the growth index of hREC and hRPEC in LG group were increased as compared with LG-hypoxia group and HG group (hREC: F=17.098, 22.970; P < 0.05. hRPEC: F=45.442, 9.011; P < 0.05); the growth index of hREC and hRPEC were decreased in HG group and HG-hypoxia group (hREC: F=146.184, P < 0.05；hRPEC: F=27.907, P < 0.05). Additionally, hREC could be significantly repressed by added TTR during culture with high concentration of glucose (F=161.430, 24.106; P < 0.05). hREC could be significantly increased by added TTR during culture with low concentration of glucose (F=200.486, 48.662; P < 0.05). In co-culture process, hRPEC revealed inhibition activity against hREC under both natural and abnormal environment (LG group: F=15.711, P < 0.05; LG-hypoxia group: F=45.659, P < 0.05; HG group: F=7.857, P < 0.05; HG-hypoxia group: F=6.348, P < 0.05). Conclusion Under high glucose and hypoxia environment, the growth of hREC from neovascular could be inhibited by TTR.

Methods : One hundred and five serum samples from patients with liver cirrhosis were detected in PAB, ChE, TBA and other biochemical markers. All patients were classified in accordance with ChildPugh scale. Results : For PAB, the differences among ChildPugh A, B, C and healthy group were statistically significant (t=1254, 1887, 2316) (Plt;001). For ChE, the differences among ChildPugh A, B, C and healthy group were statistically significant (t=1288, 0856, 1002) (Plt;001). For TBA, the differences among ChildPugh C group, B group and A group were statistically significant (t=0526, 1081)(Plt;001), the difference among ChildPugh A group and healthy group was not statistically significant (t=5615) (Pgt;005). Conclusion : PAB and ChE reflect liver reserve function earlier in patients with liver cirrhosis. The role of TBA is important in reflecting prognosis in patients with liver cirrhosis.
In recent years, domestic and foreign scholars have carried out extensive research on the prognostic factors of gastric cancer. Among them, non-specific inflammatory markers and nutritional indicators are the most concentrated in gastric cancer. C-reactive protein, as an acute phase protein, has been widely used to diagnose acute and chronic inflammation throughout the body. Prealbumin is a sensitive indicator of nutrition with a shorter half-life, which can quickly reflect the nutritional status of the body. At present, C-reactive protein and prealbumin as sensitive indicators of inflammation and nutrition, have shown certain predictive value in terms of postoperative complications and prognosis of gastric cancer. This article reviews the use of C-reactive protein, prealbumin and their ratios in predicting postoperative complications and prognosis of gastric cancer, aiming to provide a reference for the diagnosis and treatment of patients after gastric cancer.
ObjectiveTo explore the changes of plasma prealbumin (PA), homocysteine (Hcy) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels before and after treatment in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD), and analyze the correlation of PA and Hcy with hs-CRP and body mass index (BMI).MethodsA total of 132 hospitalized AECOPD patients with GOLD lung function as grade III-IV were recruited as an experimental group and 45 healthy subjects as a control group. The levels of plasma PA, Hcy and hs-CRP were measured by automatic biochemical analyzer, and the main indexes of pulmonary function were determined in all subjects.ResultsCompared with the control group, the level of plasma PA before and after treatment in the experimental group decreased significantly [(146.49±36.53) mg/L and (219.60±41.29) mg/L vs. (269.48±42.63) mg/L], the level of plasma Hcy before and after treatment increased significantly [(16.44±5.21) μmol/L and (12.61±4.56) μmol /L vs. (10.13±3.25) μmol/L], and the levels of plasma hs-CRP before and after treatment increased significantly [(45.24±29.94) mg/L and (7.71±3.41) mg/L vs. (5.01±1.52) mg/L] (all P<0.05). The levels of plasma PA, Hcy and hs-CRP after treatment were significantly better than before treatment in the experimental group (allP<0.01). The plasma PA values before and after treatment were negatively correlated with the level of hs-CRP before and after treatment, and positively correlated with BMI (bothP<0.05).ConclusionsThe levels of plasma PA, Hcy and hs-CRP are significantly different before and after the treatment in AECOPD patients and the healthy controls. PA is negatively correlated with hs-CRP and positively correlated with BMI. The detection of plasma PA and Hcy can help to determine the condition and efficacy of patients with COPD, and PA can reflect the level of inflammation and nutritional status to a certain extent.

Results There was a significant difference between the gallstone group and control in the value of proalbumin, total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein and carrier protein B (Ｐ＜0.01), the value of total protein, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, very low density lipoprotein cholesterol and carrier protein A1 were higher than those in the control (Ｐ＜0.05). Conclusion The indexes mentioned above may play an important role in the gallstone formation.
ObjectiveTo explore repressive effects of transthyretitin (TTR) on the growth of human retinal endothelial cells (hREC) under high glucose and hypoxia environment.MethodshRECs were divided into 8 groups, including normal glucose group (5.5 mmol/L glucose), hypoxia group, high glucose group (25.0 mmol/L glucose), high glucose and hypoxia group, normal glucose group+TTR, normal glucose and hypoxia group+TTR, high glucose group+TTR, high glucose and hypoxia group+TTR. Flow cytometry was used to analyze cellular apoptosis. The expression level of Akt, p-Akt, eNOS, Bcl-2 and Bax protein were measured by Western blot.ResultsHypoxia could induce apoptosis as the apoptosis rate of normal and hypoxia group was higher than normal group (χ2=25.360, P＜0.05), high glucose and hypoxia group was higher that high glucose group (χ2=17.400, P＜0.05). The cell apoptosis rate of high glucose and hypoxia group+TTR were increased significantly as compared with high glucose and hypoxia group (χ2=9.900, P＜0.05). There was no statistically significant difference on the cell apoptosis rate between normal group and high glucose group, normal group+TTR and normal group, high glucose group+TTR and high glucose group, normal and hypoxia group+TTR and normal and hypoxia group (P＞0.05). Western blot showed that the expression of Akt did not change significantly in all eight groups（F=2.450, P＞0.05). Compared to normal group, the expression of p-Akt, eNOS, Bcl-2 in normal and hypoxia group were decreased (t=9.406, 5.306, 4.819), and the expression of Bax (t=−4.503) was increased (P＜0.05). Compared to high glucose group, same trend was found in high glucose and hypoxia group (t=8.877, 7.723, 6.500, −14.646; P＜0.05). The expression of p-Akt in normal and hypoxia group+TTR was higher than normal and hypoxia group (t=−5.024, P＜0.05) , but there was no difference on the expression of eNOS, Bcl-2, Bax between these two groups (t=−2.235, −2.656, −0.272; P＞0.05). Compared to high glucose and hypoxia group, the expression of p-Akt and Bcl-2 in high glucose and hypoxia group+TTR were decreased (t=4.355, 4.308; P＜0.05), the expression of Bax was increased (t=−4.311, P＜0.05), and there was no difference on the expression of eNOS between these two groups (t=−1.590, P＞0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the expression of p-Akt, eNOS, Bcl-2, Bax between high glucose group and normal group (t=−3.407, −4.228, −4.302, −2.076; P＞0.05), normal group+TTR and normal group (t=−4.245, −4.298, −2.816, −1.326; P＞0.05), high glucose group+TTR and high glucose group (t=4.016, −0.784, 0.707, −0.328; P＞0.05).ConclusionUnder high glucose and hypoxia, transthyretitin suppress the growth of hREC through Akt/Bcl-2/Bax, but not Akt/eNOS signaling pathway.
ObjectiveTo explore the effects of transthyretin (TTR) on biological behavior of retinal microvascular epithelial cell (RMVEC). MethodsRMVEC was cultured in medium with 0 μmol/L and 4 μmol/L TTR. The proliferation, migration and healing abilities (0, 24, 48 hours) of RMVEC with different concentrations of TTR were measured by methyl thiazol tetrazolium (MTT) assay, transwell assay and scarification test. ResultsMTT assay shows that RMVEC with the concentrations of 4 μmol/L TTR [absorbance (A) value=0.17±0.02] glows faster than with the concentrations of 0 μmol/L TTR (A value=0.40±0.03), the difference was statistically significant (t=15.47, P=0.000 1). The transwell assay shows RMVEC with the concentration of 4 μmol/L TTR [(140±7) cells] migrants faster than RMVEC with the concentration of 0 μmol/L TTR [(227±14) cells], the difference was statistically significant (t=5.44, P=0.000 6). The scarification test shows that the RMVEC with the concentration of 4 μmol/L TTR [(134.4±45.4) μm] heals faster than the RMVEC with the concentration of 0 μmol/L TTR [(330.0±23.1) μm], the difference was statistically significant (t=8.25, P<0.01). The cells in 48 hours and 4 μmol/L group were healed completely, but not healed in 0 μmol/L group. ConclusionTTR can promote the proliferation, migration and healing abilities of RMVEC.
ObjectiveTo research prognostic prediction value of serum γ-glutamyltransferase-to-prealbumin ratio (GPR) for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after radical resection. MethodsThe clinical data of HCC patients undergoing radical resection from January 2013 to November 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. The optimal critical value of GPR was determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The patients were allocated into the low GPR group (GPR was the optimal critical value or less) and the high GPR group (GPR was greater than the optimal critical value). The differences of clinicopathologic characteristics were compared between the two groups. The overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) were analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier survival curve and compared by the log-rank test between the two groups. The risk factors affecting the OS and RFS of patients with HCC were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression, and the predictive value of GPR on the OS was evaluated by ROC curve. ResultsA total of 216 eligible HCC patients were gathered. The optimal critical value of GPR was 0.29, 93 cases were in the low GPR group and 123 cases were in the high GPR group. Compared with the low GPR group, the proportions of the patients with preoperative alanine aminotransferase >50 U/L, albumin <40 g/L, total bilirubin ≥34.2 μmol/L, tumor size >5 cm, multiple tumor lesions, stage Ⅲ of China liver cancer staging (CNLC), and major hepatectomy (liver segment resection was 3 or more) were higher in the high GPR group (P<0.05). The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the OS and RFS of the low GPR group were better than those of the high GPR group (χ2=14.356, P＜0.001; χ2=7.963, P=0.005). Cox regression multivariate analysis showed that the preoperative alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) ≥400 μg/L, GPR >0.29, stage Ⅲ of CNLC, and operation time (more than 3 h) were the risk factors for OS and RFS of HCC patients (P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of GPR alone and it in combination with risk factors (preoperative AFP and CNLC stage, respectively) and in combination with the above three indicators to predict the OS of patients with HCC were 0.636, 0.712, 0.696, and 0.737, respectively. ConclusionFrom the results of this study, GPR is associated with the postoperative survival of patients with HCC after radical resection, and GPR in combination with preoperative AFP and CNLC stage has a certain predictive value for the OS.
