Methods Totally 120 clean BALB/c male mice were randomly (random number) divided into 8 groups: sham group, sepsis group, curcumin control group, curcumin intervention group, negative virus-sepsis group, negative virus-curcumin intervention group, Mfn2 interference-sepsis group, and Mfn2 interference-curcumin intervention group, 15 rats in each group. Mice in the sepsis and the curcumin groups were given the cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) mice in the curcumin intervention and curcumin control groups were given curcumin 200 mg/(kg·d) for 1 week, and mice in the negative virus-sepsis group and negative virus-curcumin intervention groups were established by injection of a negative adeno-associated virus in the tail vein. The Mfn2 interference-sepsis and Mfn2 interference-curcumin intervention groups were established by injecting an adeno-associated virus carrying the Mfn2 interference sequence through the tail vein. Mice were sacrificed after 24 h in each group. The degree of lung injury was examined by lung wet-to-dry weight ratio and pathological examination. The inflammatory factors of alveolar lavage fluid including TNF-α and IL-6 were detected by ELISA, the activation of caspase-3, a key molecule for apoptosis, was detected by Western blot, and apoptosis was detected by TUNEL. The data were analyzed by SPSS 22.0 software, the count data was analyzed by χ2 test, and the comparison of measurement data between groups was analyzed by one-way ANOVA. Results Compared with the sham group, the wet-to-dry weight ratio of lung tissue in the sepsis group was significantly increased (71.11±3.78 vs 31.11±5.61, P=0.002), the histopathological score was significantly higher (P=0.006), the inflammatory factors TNF-α (P=0.001) and IL-6 (P=0.012) were dramatically increased, and the apoptosis of lung tissue and the expression of caspase-3 cleaved were also significantly increased (P=0.001). Compared with the sepsis group, the wet-to-dry weight ratio and the histopathological score of lung tissue in the curcumin-treated group was significantly lower (32.84±6.15 vs 71.11±3.78, P=0.004), and the inflammatory factors TNF-α(P=0.013) and IL-6 (P=0.003) were obviously decreased, and apoptosis and apoptosis-related protein caspase-3 cleaved expression were also dramatically decreased (P=0.012). After Mfn2 was down-regulated, Mfn2 interference-curcumin intervention group interfered with Mfn2. Compared with the sepsis group, the dry-to-wet weight ratio and the histopathological score of the lung tissue of the mice was not significantly decreased. Further studies found that after down-regulating Mfn2, compared with the Mfn2 interfere-sepsis group, Mfn2 interfere-curcumin intervention group had no such performance.

Sham animals only underwent general preparation without experiencing cardiac arrest and resuscitation. The animal model was established by 8 min of electrically induced ventricular fibrillation and then 5 min CPR in the CPR and TH groups. Successful resuscitation was regarded as an organized rhythm with a mean arterial pressure of greater than 50 mmHg for 5 min or more. After successful resuscitation, body temperature was decreased to 33 ℃ by a cooling blanket and then maintained until 24 h post-resuscitation, and followed by a rewarming at a rate of 1 ℃/h for 5 h in the TH group. A normal temperature was maintained by the blanket throughout the experiment in the sham and CPR groups. At 6, 12, 24 and 30 h after resuscitation, the values of stroke volume (SV) and global ejection fraction (GEF) were measured by PiCCO, and meanwhile the serum concentrations of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) were measured by ELISA assay and the serum activities of creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) were evaluated by an automatic biochemical analyzer. At 30 h after resuscitation, the animals were sacrificed and left ventricular myocardium was obtained for the determination of CaMKⅡ, microtubule-associated protein light chain 3Ⅱ (LC3Ⅱ) and p62 expressions by Western blot. The variables were compared with One way analysis of variance and then the Bonferroni test among the three groups. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000Compared with the sham group, myocardial dysfunction and injury after resuscitation were observed in the CPR and TH groups, which were indicated by decreased SV and GEF and also increased cTnI concentration and CK-MB activity in serum (all P<0.05).

They were randomly (random number) divided into the peptide-based enteral nutrition (PBEN) group and intact protein enteral nutrition (IPEN) group with 30 patients in each group. Enteral nutrition was started immediately within 24 h after the nasointestinal tube was placed, and the PBEN group was treated with peptide-based enteral nutrition, while the IPEN group was treated with intact protein enteral nutrition.

Methods Totally 108 ICVD patients admitted to Nanyang Central Hospital from May 1 to October 31 2018 were enrolled. Patients’ TEG parameters (R value, K value, Angle value, MA value, CI value and G value) and CCTs parameters (PT, APTT, TT, and FIB) were collected and analyzed retrospectively. The Spearman correlation coefficient was used to explore the correlation between TEG and CCTs parameters, and Kappa (κ) to explore the consistency in determining the coagulation status of the patients. The ROC curve was used to analyze the predictive value of TEG parameters for abnormal results of CCTs, and the results of TEG and CCTs were comprehensively analyzed to evaluate the ability to predict the coagulation status of patients. Results (1) PLT was positively correlated with MA value and G value; PT and APTT were positively correlated with K value; TT was positively correlated with R value and K value; FIB was positively correlated with Angle value, MA value and G value. TT was negatively correlated with Angle value and CI value; FIB was negatively correlated with K value. (2) PT and MA values, PT and G values, FIB and MA values, FIB and G values were accordant in valuing the hypoxic state of ICVD patients. (3) PLT and Angle values, PLT and MA values, PLT and CI values, PLT and G values were accordant in assessing hypercoagulable status of ICVD patients; FIB and Angle values, FIB and MA values, FIB and CI value, and FIB and G value were consistent in evaluating the hypercoagulable state of ICVD patients. (4) For detecting TT>20 s, the AUC of K value and Angle value were 0.648, 0.651, respectively; For detecting FIB>4 g/L, the AUC of Angle value and MA value were 0.717 and 0.747, respectively; For detecting PLT>300×109/L, the AUC of MA value was 0.808 (all P<0.05). Conclusions There is weak correlation and consistency between TEG and CCTs parameters in ICVD patients. The TEG parameters have good predictive value in evaluating the abnormal results of CCTs, but cannot replace the CCTs. Combination of these two methods can better reflect the coagulation status of patients, so as to afford assistance.
