1Upper-gastrointestinal bleeding secondary to peptic ulcer disease:Incidence and outcomes显示文摘AIM:To evaluate the incidence,surgery,mortality,and readmission of upper gastrointestinal bleeding(UGIB)secondary to peptic ulcer disease(PUD).METHODS:Administrative databases identified all hospitalizations for UGIB secondary to PUD in Alberta,Canada from 2004 to 2010(n=7079)using the International Classification of Diseases Codes(ICD-10).A subset of the data was validated using endoscopy reports.Positive predictive value and sensitivity with 95%confidence intervals(CI)were calculated.Incidence of UGIB secondary to PUD was calculated.Logistic regression was used to evaluate surgery,in-hospital mortality,and 30-d readmission to hospital with recurrent UGIB secondary to PUD.Co-variants accounted for in our logistic regression model included:age,sex,area of residence(i.e.,urban vs rural),number of Charlson comorbidities,presence of perforated PUD,undergoing upper endoscopy,year of admission,and interventional radiological attempt at controlling bleeding.A subgroup analysis(n=6356)compared outcomes of patients with gastric ulcers to those with duodenal ulcers.Adjusted estimates are presented as odds ratios(OR)with95%CI.RESULTS:The positive predictive value and sensitivity of ICD-10 coding for UGIB secondary to PUD were85.2%(95%CI:80.2%-90.2%)and 77.1%(95%CI:69.1%-85.2%),respectively.The annual incidence between 2004 and 2010 ranged from 35.4 to 41.2 per100000.Overall risk of surgery,in-hospital mortality,and 30-d readmission to hospital for UGIB secondary to PUD were 4.3%,8.5%,and 4.7%,respectively.Interventional radiology to control bleeding was performed in 0.6%of patients and 76%of these patients avoided surgical intervention.Thirty-day readmission significantly increased from 3.1%in 2004 to 5.2%in 2010(OR=1.07;95%CI:1.01-1.14).Rural residents(OR rural vs urban:2.35;95%CI:1.83-3.01)and older individuals(OR≥65 vs<65:1.57;95%CI:1.21-2.04)were at higher odds of being readmitted to hospital.Patients with duodenal ulcers had higher odds of dying(OR=1.27;95%CI:1.05-1.53),requiring surgery(OR=1.73;95%CI:1.34-2.23),and being readmitted to hospital(OR=1.54;95%CI:1.19-1.99)when compared to gastric ulcers.CONCLUSION:UGIB secondary to PUD,particularly duodenal ulcers,was associated with significant morbidity and mortality.Early readmissions increased over time and occurred more commonly in rural areas.Samuel Quan Alexandra Frolkis Kaylee Milne Natalie Molodecky Hong Yang Elijah Dixon Chad G Ball Robert P Myers Subrata Ghosh Robert Hilsden Sander Veldhuyzen van Zanten Gilaad G Kaplan 2014World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,46:21
2Thermal transformation of acid compounds in high TAN crude oil显示文摘The Liaohe crude oil with high total acid number (TAN) was subjected to thermal reaction at 300℃to 500℃. Reaction products were collected and analyzed by negative-ion electrospray ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (ESI FT-ICR MS) to determine acid compounds in the crude oil. The double-bond equivalence (DBE) versus carbon number was used to characterize the oxygenated components in the feed and reaction products. The O2 class which mainly corresponds to naphthenic acids decarboxylated at 350-400℃, resulting in a sharply decrease in TAN. Phenols (O1 class) are more thermally stable than carboxylic acids. Carboxylic acids were also thermally cracked into smaller molecular size acids, evidenced by the presence of acetic acid, propanoic acid, and butyric acid in the liquid product. These small acid species are strong acids likely responsible for corrosion problems in refineries.YANG BaiBing XU ChunMing ZHAO SuoQi HSU Chang Samuel CHUNG Keng H.

5Regulation ofα-cell glucagon secretion:The role of second messengers显示文摘Glucagon is a potent glucose-elevating hormone that is secreted by pancreaticα-cells.While well-controlled glucagon secretion plays an important role in maintaining systemic glucose homeostasis and preventing hypoglycaemia,it is increasingly apparent that defects in the regulation of glucagon secretion contribute to impaired counter-regulation and hyperglycaemia in diabetes.It has therefore been proposed that pharmacological interventions targeting glucagon secretion/signalling can have great potential in improving glycaemic control of patients with diabetes.However,despite decades of research,a consensus on the precise mechanisms of glucose regulation of glucagon secretion is yet to be reached.Second messengers are a group of small intracellular molecules that relay extracellular signals to the intracellular signalling cascade,modulating cellular functions.There is a growing body of evidence that second messengers,such as cAMP and Ca^(2+),play critical roles inα-cell glucose-sensing and glucagon secretion.In this review,we discuss the impact of second messengers onα-cell electrical activity,intracellular Ca^(2+)dynamics and cell exocytosis.We highlight the possibility that the interaction between different second messengers may play a key role in the glucose-regulation of glucagon secretion.Samuel Acreman Quan Zhang 2022Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine2022,8,1:0
