Objective To investigate the changes and clinical relationship of plasma adrenomedullin( ADM) , atrial natriuretic polypeptide( ANP) , and heart rate variability( HRV) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome ( OSAHS) . Methods Seventy-five inpatients with OSAHS were enrolled in this study. According to the apnea hypopnea index ( AHI) by polysomnography, the subjects were divided into a mild group, a moderate group, and a severe group. Meanwhile, HRV was screened bydynamic electrocardiogram in sleep laboratory. HRV parameters were obtained including LF ( low frequency power) , HF( high frequency power) , pNN50( percentage of NN50 in the total number of N-N intervals) ,SDNN( standard deviation of the N-N intervals) , rMSSD( square root of the mean squared differences of successive N-N intervals ) . Plasma levels of ADM/ANP were measured by radioimmunoassay. Results The levels of SDNN ( P lt;0. 05) , rMSSD, pNN50, LF ( P lt; 0. 05) and HF were gradually reduced, and the levels of ADM ( P lt;0. 05) and ANP ( P lt; 0. 05) were increased with increasing severity of OSAHS. Linear correlation analysis demonstrated that SDNN was negatively correlated with ADM( r = - 0. 423, P lt;0. 05)and ANP( r = - 0. 452, P lt; 0. 05) , and LF was also negatively correlated with ADM( r = - 0. 348, P lt;0. 05) . Conclusion Lower HRV is associated with more sever OSAHS, and it may be modulated neurohumorally by ADM and ANP.
Objective To investigate the correlation between obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and biochemical indexes in children. Methods Seventy-eight children with OSAHS in our hospital from January 2015 to February 2017 were recruited as an observation group, and 100 normal children who underwent physical examination were selected as a control group in the same period. The mean values and positive rates of biochemical markers were compared between two groups including alanine aminotransferase (ALT), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB), cardiac troponin I (cTnI), fasting blood glucose (FPG) level. Results The mean values of biochemical indexes showed significant differences between the observation group and the control group except BUN and FPG [ALT, (52.1±26.2) U/L vs. (41.3±18.5) U/L; TC, (4.9±0.9) mmol/L vs. (4.3±0.8) mmol/L; TG, (1.4±0.7) mmol/L vs. (1.0±0.4) mmol/L; CK-MB, (24.3±9.5) U/L vs. (11.2±8.2) U/L; cTnI, (1.4±0.7) μg/L vs. (1.0±0.6) μg/L] (all P<0.05). The positive rates also showed significant differences between the observation group and the control group except BUN and FPG [ALT (48.7%vs. 14.0%), TC (24.4% vs. 8.0%), TG (23.1% vs. 8.0%), CK-MB (41.0% vs. 11.0%), cTnI (34.6% vs. 7.0%) (all P<0.05). Conclusions The cardiac function and liver function are significantly impaired in children with OSAHS, showing the disorder of lipid metabolism to some extent. These abnormal indexes may be the occurrence and development of OSAHS. More attention should be paid to the detection of biochemical indexes in children with OSAHS.
ObjectiveTo investigate the expression and significance of CD73 in rats with intermittent hypoxia and high fat diet.MethodsThe rat model of chronic intermittent hypoxia combined with high fat diet was established. Twenty-four healthy male Wistar rats in the SPF level were randomly divided into 4 group, with 6 rats in each group, namely group A (normoxia and normal diet), group B (normoxia and high fat diet), group C (intermittent hypoxia and normal diet)and group D (intermittent hypoxia and high-fat diet). After 6 weeks of experiment, the serum lipid levels, myocardial morphological changes under microscope, the expression level of CD73 protein detected byimmunohistochemistry and Western blot in myocardial cells in rats were compared among these groups.ResultsThe serum lipid levels were significantly different among these groups (P<0.05). HE results showed that the myocardial cells of group A had no obvious abnormalities; disorganized visible myocardial fibers with focal necrosis in groups B and C; myocardial cell injury was most obvious in group D, in which visible muscle fibers arranged in disorder, and grain was not clear, part of the muscle fibers were dissolved predominantly. Compared with group A, CD73 protein expression levels in myocardial cells in groups B, C, and D were significantly elevated (P<0.01). Furthermore, CD73 protein expression level in myocardial cells in group D was significantly higher than those in groups B and C (P<0.01). Western blot showed consistent results as immunohistochemistry: compared with group A, CD73 protein expression levels in groups B, C, and D were significantly elevated (P<0.05), and CD73 protein expression level in myocardial cells in group D was significantly higher than those in groups B and C (P<0.01).ConclusionChronic intermittent hypoxia and high fat diet can cause myocardial cell damage and upregulate CD73 expression in the cardiomyocytes.
Objective To explore the diagnosis and treatment of critically ill patients suffering from obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome ( OSAHS) . Methods Critically ill patients with OSAHS admitted in intensive care unit from January 2003 to December 2007 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Seventy-nine critically ill patients were diagnosed as OSAHS. The initial diagnosis of OSAHS was made by history requiring, physical examination, and Epworth sleepiness score evaluation. The final diagnosis was comfirmed by polysomnography thereafter. Base on the treatment of primary critical diseases, the patients were given respiratory support either with continuous positive airway pressure ( CPAP) or with bi-level positive airway pressure ventilation ( BiPAP) . Two cases died and the remaining 77 patients were cured anddischarged. Conclusions Timely diagnosis of OSAHS is important to rescue the critically ill patients. Respiratory support combined with treatment of primary critical diseases can improve the outcomes of these patients.
Objective To explore the difference between the hemorheology levels and the expression of hypoxia inducible factor 1α/2α (HIF-1α/2α) in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of the Tibetan and Han patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods This research recruited 30 high-risk Tibetan and Han patients with OSAHS, and 30 Tibetan and Han healthy volunteers at the same period. The whole blood viscometer was used to detect the high shear rate of whole blood viscosity, low shear rate of whole blood viscosity, plasma viscosity ratio, red blood cell aggregation index, and hematocrit in each group. RT-qPCR and Western blot assays were used to detect the mRNA and protein levels of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), serine/threonine kinase (AKT), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) p65, HIF-1α and HIF-2α in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Results The hemorheology level of Tibetan OSAHS patients was significantly higher than that of healthy Tibetans and Han OSAHS patients (P<0.05), and the hemorheology level of Han OSAHS patients was significantly higher than that of Han healthy people (P<0.05) . The mRNA and protein levels of PI3K, AKT, NF-κB p65 and HIF-1α in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of Tibetan OSAHS patients were significantly higher than those of the healthy Tibetans or Han people, and these indexes of the Han OSAHS patients were significantly higher than those of the Han healthy people (all P<0.05), while HIF-2α mRNA and protein levels were significantly lower than those of healthy Han people (all P<0.05). Conclusion The upregulation of HIF-1α level and downregulation of HIF-2α expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of OSAHS patients depend on the activation of the PI3K/AKT/NF-κB p65 signaling pathway, and the hemorheological level of Tibetan OSAHS patients is higher than that of Han OSAHS patients.
Objective To investigate the possible association between serum level of hepatocyte growth factor( HGF) and obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome( OSAHS) with hypertension.Methods 58 cases of OSAHS without hypertension, 61 cases of OSAHS with hypertension, and 50 normal controls were enrolled. Serum level of HGF was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay( ELISA) , and the relationships between the serum HGF level and blood pressure( BP) , apnea hypopnea index( AHI) , lowest SaO2 ( LSaO2 ) were analyzed by linear correlation analysis. Results The serum HGF level ( pg/mL) was 761. 46 ±60. 18, 970. 87 ±60. 94, and 487. 34 ±45. 52 in the OSAHS patients without hypertention, OSAHS patients with hypertention, and normal subjects, respectively. Which was significantly higher in the OSAHSpatients than the normal subjects, and highest in the OSAHS patients with hypertension( P lt; 0. 05) . The serum HGF level was positively related to AHI( r = 0. 452, P lt;0. 05) and negatively related to LSaO2 ( r =- 0. 328, P lt;0. 05) in the OSAHS patients without hypertention, positively related to AHI, SBP, DBP( r =0. 670, P lt;0. 01; r =0. 535, P lt;0. 05; r =0. 424, P lt;0. 05) and negatively related to LSaO2 ( r = - 0. 572,P lt;0. 01) in the OSAHS patients with hypertension. Conclusions SerumHGF level increases significantly in patients with OSAHS especialy in OSAHS patients with hypertension, and positively correlates with the severity of OSAHS and hypertension.
