SMMC-7721cells were treated with 0, 5 μmol/L, 10 μmol/L, or 20 μmol/L α-hederin for 24 h with or without DL-buthionineS,R-sulfoximine(2 mmol/L) or N-acetylcysteine(5 mmol/L) pretreatment for 2 h, and additional assays were subsequently performed. Apoptosis was observed after Hoechst staining. Glutathione(GSH) and adenosine triphosphate(ATP) levels were measured using GSH and ATP Assay Kits. Intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS) levels were determined by measuring the oxidative conversion of 2',7'-dichlorofluorescin diacetate. Disruption of the mitochondrial membrane potential was evaluated using JC-1 staining. The protein levels of Bax, Bcl-2, cleaved caspase-3, cleaved caspase-9, apoptosis-inducing factor and cytochrome C were detected by western blotting. The antitumor efficacy of α-hederin in vivo was evaluated in a xenograft tumor model.RESULTS The α-hederin treatment induced apoptosis of HCC cells. The apoptosis rates in the control, low-dose α-hederin(5 μmol/L), mid-dose α-hederin(10 μmol/L) and highdose α-hederin(20 μmol/L) groups were 0.90% ± 0.26%, 12% ± 2.0%, 21% ± 2.1% and 37% ± 3.8%, respectively(P < 0.05). The α-hederin treatment reduced intracellular GSH and ATP levels, induced ROS, disrupted the mitochondrial membrane potential, increased the protein levels of Bax, cleaved caspase-3, cleaved caspase-9, apoptosis-inducing factor and cytochrome C, and decreased Bcl-2 expression. The α-hederin treatment also inhibited xenograft tumor growth in vivo. CONCLUSION The α-hederin saponin induces apoptosis of HCC cells via the mitochondrial pathway mediated by increased intracellular ROS and may be an effective treatment for human HCC.展开更多

The effects of reaction time, temperature, particle size, reagent concentration, and stirring speed on this leach- ing were studied. The dissolution kinetics of malachite was illustrated with a three-dimensional diffusion model. A novel leaching effect of SA on malachite was eventually demonstrated. The leaching rate increased with decreasing particle size and increasing concentration, reac- tion temperature and stirring speed. The activation energy for SA leaching malachite was 33.23 kJ/mol. Furthermore, the effectiveness of SA as a new reagent for extracting copper from copper oxide ore was confirmed by experiment. This approach may provide a solution suitable for subsequent electrowinning. In addition, results reported herein may provide basic data that enable the leaching of other carbonate miner- als of copper, zinc, cobalt and so on in an SA system.展开更多

The structures, forms, and phases of these large quantities of fluid inclusions were also studied. A mass of fluid inclusions with various sizes, distributions, shapes, and phases exist in bornite and its associated minerals. Their sizes vary from a few micrometers to tens of micrometers, and the forms appear as negative crystals, or elongated, elliptical, and irregular. At room temperature, fluid inclusions were mainly characterized as gas-liquid two- phase. However, small amounts of fluid inclusions with pure gas phase and pure liquid single-phase were also observed in quartz and calcite. These fluid inclusions initially broke during the ore crushing and grinding process and then released into the flotation pulp in the flotation process. The quantitative analysis of fluid inclusions in the solution and the comparisons of mineral dissolution show that the amount of copper and iron released by fluid inclusions in the bornite sample is higher than the amount dissolved by the mineral; fluid inclusions in the associated gangue minerals, quartz, and calcite also make contribution.展开更多

With the 12–23-mon IPI as the reference category, logistic regression analyzes were used to examine associations between different IPIs(<12, 12–23, 24–59, 60–119, and ≥120 mon) and perinatal outcomes(gestational diabetes mellitus, premature membrane rupture, gestational hypertension, preterm birth, low birth weight, and macrosomia).Compared with the 12–23-mon IPI category, women with longer IPIs had a higher risk of adverse perinatal outcomes, and those with an IPI ≥120 mon had the highest risk of gestational diabetes mellitus and premature membrane rupture(adjusted odds ratio(OR) 1.76, 95% confidence interval(CI) 1.32–2.35 and adjusted OR 2.03, 95% CI 1.53–2.67, respectively). These results indicate that a longer IPI is associated with a higher risk of adverse perinatal outcomes and an IPI of ≥120 mon appears to be independently associated with a higher risk of gestational diabetes mellitus and premature membrane rupture.展开更多

DMA results showed that the PPC/PBC blends were an immiscible two-phase system. With the increase in PBC content, the PPC/PBC blends showed decreased tensile strength, however, the elongation at break was increased to 230% for the 50/50 PPC/PBC blend. From the tensile strength experiments, the Pukanszky model gave credit to the modest interfacial adhesion between PPC and PBC, although PPC/PBC was immscible. The impact strength increased significantly which indicated the toughening effects of the PBC on PPC. SEM examination showed that cavitation and shear yielding were the major toughening mechanisms in the blends subjected the impact tests. TGA measurements showed that the thermal stability of PPC decreased with the incorporation of PBC. Rheological investigation demonstrated that the addition of PBC reduced the value of storage modulus, loss modulus and complex viscosity of the PPC/PBC blends to some extent. Moreover, the addition of PBC was found to increase the processability of PPC in extrusion. The introduction of PBC provided an efficient and novel toughened method to extend the application area of PPC.展开更多

The effects of PPSu on the miscibility, thermal stability, mechanical and theological properties of the blends were investigated. PPC was partially miscible with PPSu. It was demonstrated that PPSu decreased the glass transition temperature and melt viscosity of PPC, as shown in the DSC and rheological curves. With the increase in PPSu content, the PPC/PPSu blends showed decreased tensile strength, however, the elongation at break was increased to 1100% for the 70/30 PPC/PPSu blend. The introduction of PPSu provided an efficient and novel plasticization method to extend the application area of PPC.展开更多

Methods The study group consisted of 93 patients diagnosed as bilateral suspected peritubal adhesions by HSG, and 175 patients with no tubal pathology were classified as control group. A total of 496 cycles of lUI were finished in 268 infertile women. Results There were no differences in basic clinical parameters between the two groups. Cumulative pregnancy rates after two cycles of lUI were 19.4%for the study group, and 34.3%for the control. Cumulative pregnancy rate in the women with abnormal contrast media loculation was significantly lower than that in women of the control （7.4% vs 34.3%, P=0.037）. The cumulative pregnancy rates were similar between the women with abnormal tubal contour and the normal ones （36. 7% vs 34.3%, P=0.800）. Conclusion Suspected peritubal adhesions in HSG were worthy more attention, since the outcome of lUI in women with loculation of contrast material, combined with or without abnormal tubal contour resulted in a significantly lower pregnancy rate than the normal ones. IUI should be delayed before tubal patency was confirmed during these patients.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Autoimmune liver disease(AILD)has been considered a relatively uncommon disease in China,epidemiological data for AILD in patients with cirrhosis and acute decompensation(AD)is sparse.AIM To investigate the prevalence,outcome and risk factors for AILD in cirrhotic patients complicated with AD in China.METHODS We collected data from patients with cirrhosis and AD from two prospective,multicenter cohorts in hepatitis B virus endemic areas.Patients were regularly followed up at the end of 28-d,90-d and 365-d,or until death or liver transplantation(LT).The primary outcome in this study was 90-d LTfree mortality.Acute-on-chronic liver failure(ACLF)was assessed on admission and during 28-d hospitalization,according to the diagnostic criteria of the European Association for the Study of the Liver(EASL).Risk factors for death were analyzed with logistic regression model.RESULTS In patients with cirrhosis and AD,the overall prevalence of AILD was 9.3%(242/2597).Prevalence of ACLF was significantly lower in AILD cases(14%)than those with all etiology groups with cirrhosis and AD(22.8%)(P<0.001).Among 242 enrolled AILD patients,the prevalence rates of primary biliary cirrhosis(PBC),autoimmune hepatitis(AIH)and PBC-AIH overlap syndrome(PBC/AIH)were 50.8%,28.5%and 12.0%,respectively.In ACLF patients,the proportions of PBC,AIH and PBC/AIH were 41.2%,29.4% and 20.6%.28-d and 90-d mortality were 43.8% and 80.0% in AILD-related ACLF.The etiology of AILD had no significant impact on 28-d,90-d or 365-d LTfree mortality in patients with cirrhosis and AD in both univariate and multivariate analysis.Total bilirubin(TB),hepatic encephalopathy(HE)and blood urea nitrogen(BUN)were independent risk factors for 90-d LT-free mortality in multivariate analysis.The development of ACLF during hospitalization only independently correlated to TB and international normalized ratio.CONCLUSION AILD was not rare in hospitalized patients with cirrhosis and AD in China,among which PBC was the most common etiology.90-d LT-free mortality were independently associated with TB,HE and BUN.
文摘BACKGROUND Previous studies had shown endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy(ERAT)is an effective treatment for acute appendicitis.However,different studies reported conflicting outcomes regarding the effectiveness of ERAT in comparison with laparoscopic appendectomy(LA).AIM To compare the effectiveness of ERAT with LA.METHODS Randomized controlled trials(RCTs)and retrospective studies of ERAT for acute uncomplicated appendicitis were searched in PubMed,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,Embase database,China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),the WanFang Database,and Chinese Scientific Journals Database(VIP)from the establishment date to March 12021.Heterogeneity was assessed using the Isquared statistic.Pooled odds ratios(OR),weighted mean difference(WMD),and standard mean difference(SMD),with 95%confidence intervals(CI)were calculated through either fixed-effects or random-effects model.Sensitivity analysis was also performed.Publication bias was tested by Egger's test,and Begg’s test.The quality of included RCT were evaluated by the Jadad scale,while Newcastle-Ottawa scale is adopted for assessing the methodological quality of case-control studies.All statistical analysis was performed using Stata 15.1 statistical software.All statistical analysis was performed using Stata 15.1 statistical software.This study is registered with PROSPERO,CRD42021243955.RESULTS After screening,10 RCTs and 2 case-control studies were included in the current systematic review.Firstly,the length of hospitalizations[WMD=-1.15,95%CI:-1.99,-0.31;P=0.007]was shorter than LA group.Secondly,the level of postoperative CRP[WMD=-10.06,95%CI:(-17.39,-2.73);P=0.007],TNF-α[WMD=-7.70,95%CI:(-8.47,-6.93);P<0.001],and IL-6 Levels[WMD=-9.78,95%CI:(-10.69,-8.88);P<0.001;P<0.001]in ERAT group was significantly lower than LA group.Thirdly,ERAT group had a lower incidence of intestinal obstruction than LA group.[OR=0.19,95%CI:(0.05,0.79);P=0.020].Moreover,the quality of 10 RCTs were low with 0-3 Jadad scores,while the methodological quality of two case-control studies were fair with a score of 2(each).CONCLUSION Compared with LA,ERAT reduces operation time,the level of postoperative inflammation,and results in fewer complications and shorter recovery time,with preserving the appendix and its immune and biological functions.

文摘Extracellular amyloid beta(Aβ) plaques are main pathological feature of Alzheimer’s disease.However,the specific type of neuro ns that produce Aβ peptides in the initial stage of Alzheimer’s disease are unknown.In this study,we found that 5-hydroxytryptamin receptor 3A subunit(HTR3A) was highly expressed in the brain tissue of transgenic amyloid precursor protein and presenilin-1 mice(an Alzheimer’s disease model) and patients with Alzheimer’s disease.To investigate whether HTR3A-positive interneurons are associated with the production of Aβ plaques,we performed double immunostaining and found that HTR3A-positive interneurons were clustered around Aβ plaques in the mouse model.Some amyloid precursor protein-positive or β-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme-1-positive neurites near Aβ plaques were co-localized with HTR3A interneurons.These results suggest that HTR3A-positive interneurons may partially contribute to the generation of Aβ peptides.We treated 5.0-5.5-month-old model mice with tro pisetron,a HTR3 antagonist,for 8 consecutive weeks.We found that the cognitive deficit of mice was partially reversed,Aβ plaques and neuroinflammation we re remarkably reduced,the expression of HTR3 was remarkably decreased and the calcineurin/nuclear factor of activated T-cell 4 signaling pathway was inhibited in treated model mice.These findings suggest that HTR3A interneurons partly contribute to generation of Aβ peptide at the initial stage of Alzheimer’s disease and inhibiting HTR3 partly reve rses the pathological changes of Alzheimer’s disease.
文摘Texture and color enhancement imaging(TXI)has been developed as a novel image-enhancing endoscopy.However,the effectiveness of TXI detecting adenomas is inferior to narrow band imaging.Thus,future studies will need to focus on investigating the feasibility of such combination in clinical settings in order to provide patients with more accurate diagnoses.

文摘To study the effects of lanthanide ions on the geometrically frustrated antiferromagnets and their magnetic properties,we grew high-quality single crystals of LnCu_(3)(OH)_(6)Br_(3)(Ln=Nd,Sm,and Eu)by hydrothermal method and studied their crystal structures and magnetic properties.The refinements of the crystal structure referred to the powder x-ray diffraction data show that LnCu_(3)(OH)_(6)Br_(3)adopt a Kapellasite-type layer structure,which is isostructural to their chlorine analogue.Magnetic susceptibilities demonstrate that LnCu_(3)(OH)_(6)Br_(3)have strong antiferromagnetic coupling and a pronounced magnetic frustration effect.Magnetization measurements indicate canted antiferromagnetic ordering of Cu^(2+)ions around 16 K within the kagoméplane and weak ferromagnetic coupling.Moreover,shoulder-like anomalies in specific heat around 16 K could be a signature of emergent of magnetic ordering.The low-temperature negative magnetization and specific heat of LnCu_(3)(OH)_(6)Br_(3)(Ln=Nd,Sm,and Eu)indicate that Ln^(3+)ions induce more exotic magnetic ground state properties.

文摘The magnetism and magnetocaloric effect(MCE)of rare-earth-based tungstate compounds R_(3)BWO_9(R=Gd,Dy,Ho)have been studied by magnetic susceptibility,isothermal magnetization,and specific heat measurements.No obvious long-range magnetic ordering can be found down to 2 K.The Curie-Weiss fitting and magnetic susceptibilities under different applied fields reveal the existence of weak short-range antiferromagnetic couplings at low temperature in these systems.The calculations of isothermal magnetization exhibit a giant MCE with the maximum changes of magnetic entropy being 54.80 J/kg-K at 2 K for Gd_(3)BWO_9,28.5 J/kg-K at 6 K for Dy_(3)BWO_(9),and 29.76 J/kg-K at 4 K for Ho_(3)BWO_9,respectively,under a field change of 0-7 T.Especially for Gd_(3)BWO_9,the maximum value of magnetic entropy change(-ΔS_M^(max))and adiabatic temperature change(-ΔT_(ad)^(max))are 36.75 J/kg·K and 5.56 K for a low field change of 0-3 T,indicating a promising application for low temperature magnetic refrigeration.

文摘Carbon dots(Cdots)with a broad light absorption range could be a potential stable sensitizer for TiO2,which is an excellent ultraviolet(UV)response photocatalyst.Herein,we systematically investigated the different color emissive Cdots-sensitized TiO2 for H2 production.Firstly,all kinds of Cdots enhanced the photocatalytic properties of TiO2.All the Cdots-sensitized TiO2 exhibits visible light H2 production due to their absorption in the visible light region.The photocurrent and H2 production amount display strong dependence on the light absorption range of Cdots.The blue-emissive Cdots endow the weak H2 production rate due to its weak absorption in the visible light.The enhanced photocatalytic activities are mainly contributed to the strong light absorbance and high-efficient charge separation.The light absorption of green-and red-emissive Cdots is another main factor for the high catalytic activities besides charge separation.

文摘We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 9,552 women experiencing their second delivery between 2014 and 2016 at the International Peace Maternity and Child Health Hospital to investigate the association between the interpregnancy interval(IPI)and adverse perinatal outcomes. With the 12–23-mon IPI as the reference category, logistic regression analyzes were used to examine associations between different IPIs(<12, 12–23, 24–59, 60–119, and ≥120 mon) and perinatal outcomes(gestational diabetes mellitus, premature membrane rupture, gestational hypertension, preterm birth, low birth weight, and macrosomia).Compared with the 12–23-mon IPI category, women with longer IPIs had a higher risk of adverse perinatal outcomes, and those with an IPI ≥120 mon had the highest risk of gestational diabetes mellitus and premature membrane rupture(adjusted odds ratio(OR) 1.76, 95% confidence interval(CI) 1.32–2.35 and adjusted OR 2.03, 95% CI 1.53–2.67, respectively). These results indicate that a longer IPI is associated with a higher risk of adverse perinatal outcomes and an IPI of ≥120 mon appears to be independently associated with a higher risk of gestational diabetes mellitus and premature membrane rupture.

文摘Poly（propylene carbonate） （PPC） was melt blended in a batch mixer with poly（butylene carbonate） （PBC） in an effort to improve the toughness of the PPC without compromising its biodegradability and biocompatibility. DMA results showed that the PPC/PBC blends were an immiscible two-phase system. With the increase in PBC content, the PPC/PBC blends showed decreased tensile strength, however, the elongation at break was increased to 230% for the 50/50 PPC/PBC blend. From the tensile strength experiments, the Pukanszky model gave credit to the modest interfacial adhesion between PPC and PBC, although PPC/PBC was immscible. The impact strength increased significantly which indicated the toughening effects of the PBC on PPC. SEM examination showed that cavitation and shear yielding were the major toughening mechanisms in the blends subjected the impact tests. TGA measurements showed that the thermal stability of PPC decreased with the incorporation of PBC. Rheological investigation demonstrated that the addition of PBC reduced the value of storage modulus, loss modulus and complex viscosity of the PPC/PBC blends to some extent. Moreover, the addition of PBC was found to increase the processability of PPC in extrusion. The introduction of PBC provided an efficient and novel toughened method to extend the application area of PPC.

文摘In order to improve the flexibility of poly（propylene carbonate） （PPC）, poly（1,2-propylene succinate） （PPSu） was used to plasticize PPC in a batch mixer. The effects of PPSu on the miscibility, thermal stability, mechanical and theological properties of the blends were investigated. PPC was partially miscible with PPSu. It was demonstrated that PPSu decreased the glass transition temperature and melt viscosity of PPC, as shown in the DSC and rheological curves. With the increase in PPSu content, the PPC/PPSu blends showed decreased tensile strength, however, the elongation at break was increased to 1100% for the 70/30 PPC/PPSu blend. The introduction of PPSu provided an efficient and novel plasticization method to extend the application area of PPC.

文摘Objective To assess the fertility prospect of women with suspected peritubal adhesions diagnosed by hysterosalpingography （HSG） treated with intrauterine insemination （IUI）. Methods The study group consisted of 93 patients diagnosed as bilateral suspected peritubal adhesions by HSG, and 175 patients with no tubal pathology were classified as control group. A total of 496 cycles of lUI were finished in 268 infertile women. Results There were no differences in basic clinical parameters between the two groups. Cumulative pregnancy rates after two cycles of lUI were 19.4%for the study group, and 34.3%for the control. Cumulative pregnancy rate in the women with abnormal contrast media loculation was significantly lower than that in women of the control （7.4% vs 34.3%, P=0.037）. The cumulative pregnancy rates were similar between the women with abnormal tubal contour and the normal ones （36. 7% vs 34.3%, P=0.800）. Conclusion Suspected peritubal adhesions in HSG were worthy more attention, since the outcome of lUI in women with loculation of contrast material, combined with or without abnormal tubal contour resulted in a significantly lower pregnancy rate than the normal ones. IUI should be delayed before tubal patency was confirmed during these patients.
