Abstract
Background: To study the changes in intestinal flora in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), and to explore its correlations with micro ribonucleic acid (miR)-21 and serum tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-α).
Methods: A total of 150 patients with UC were selected and divided into remission group and seizure group according to the severity of disease. At the same time, 150 healthy people receiving physical examination in the hospital during the same period were selected as control group. The levels of fecal miR-21 and TNF-α in all subjects were determined via reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The correlation between miR-21 and TNF-α and their associations with the changes in intestinal bacteria in UC were analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis. The risk factors affecting the occurrence of UC were explored via multivariate logistic regression analysis.
期刊介绍:
Texto & Contexto Enfermagem provides space for reflection and deepening of knowledge about issues of practice, teaching and research in health and nursing, at national and international levels.
The journal is published quarterly in the rolling pass or Continuous flow mode, accepting manuscripts in Portuguese, English or Spanish, in the categories original article, reflection, experience report and review. Contributions designated to the dissemination of unpublished original research results are prioritized for publication. Special issues are published at the discretion of the Board of Directors and Associate Editors. All manuscripts are published in two versions, one of which is English, aiming to cover the largest number of readers worldwide.
The editorial policy of Texto & Contexto Enfermagem is based on rigorous quality criteria for indexing and publishing (including technical and normative aspects, graphic and textual quality and excellence in scientific content); on responsibility for shared management between the Board of Directors, Editorial Board and Internal and External Editors Associates; and on the rigorous and constructive peer review, preserving the anonymity of authors and reviewers (double blinded).
