| 1 | Role of inflammatory response in liver diseases: Therapeutic strategies显示文摘Inflammation and tumorigenesis are tightly linked pathways impacting cancer development. Inflammasomes are key signalling platforms that detect pathogenic microorganisms, including hepatitis C virus(HCV) infection, and sterile stressors(oxidative stress, insulin resistance, lipotoxicity) able to activate pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β and IL-18. Most of the inflammasome complexes that have been described to date contain a NOD-like receptor sensor molecule. Redox state and autophagy can regulate inflammasome complex and, depending on the conditions, can be either pro-or antiapoptotic. Acute and chronic liver diseases are cytokinedriven diseases as several proinflammatory cytokines(IL-1α, IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and IL-6) are critically involved in inflammation, steatosis, fibrosis, and cancer development. NLRP3 inflammasome gain of function aggravates liver disease, resulting in severe liver fibrosis and highlighting this pathway in the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. On the other hand, HCV infection is the primary catalyst for progressive liver disease and development of liver cancer. It is well established that HCV-induced IL-1β production by hepatic macrophages plays a critical and central process that promotes liver inflammation and disease. In this review, we aim to clarify the role of the inflammasome in the aggravation of liver disease, and how selective blockade of this main pathway may be a useful strategy to delay fibrosis progression in liver diseases. | José A Del Campo Paloma Gallego Lourdes Grande | 2018 | World Journal of Hepatology2018，10，1： | 25 |
| 2 | Helicobacter pylori and neurological diseases: Married by the laws of inflammation显示文摘The purpose of this paper is to review current infor-mation about the role of inflammation caused by He-licobacter pylori(H. pylori) infection in neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's dis-ease, Guillain-Barré syndrome, multiple sclerosis, and other inflammatory diseases including ischemic stroke. Infection with H. pylori usually persists throughout life, resulting in a chronic inflammatory response with local secretion of numerous inflammatory mediators includ-ing chemokines [interleukin(IL)-8, macrophage che-motactic protein, growth-regulated oncogene(GRO)-α, chemokine(C-X-C motif) ligand 1] and cytokines [IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α, IL-6, IL-12, interferon-g], which can pass into the circulation and have a systemic effect. The persistence of detectable systemic and lo-cal concentrations of inflammatory mediators is likely to alter the outcome of neurological diseases. These proinflammatory factors can induce brain inflammation and the death of neurons and could eventually be asso-ciated to Parkinson's disease and also may be involved in the development of Alzheimer's disease. However,most neurological diseases are the result of a combina-tion of multiple factors, but the systemic inflammatory response is a common component and determinant in the onset, evolution, and outcome of diseases. How-ever, more studies are needed to allow understanding of the effects and mechanisms by which the inflamma-tory response generated by H. pylori infection affects neurological diseases. | Lourdes álvarez-Arellano Carmen Maldonado-Bernal | 2014 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Pathophysiology2014，5，4： | 23 |
| 3 | Evaluation of inflammatory activity in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis显示文摘Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis evolve with a relapsing and remitting course.Determination of inflammatory state is crucial for the assessment of disease activity and for tailoring therapy.However,no simple diagnostic test for monitoring intestinal inflammation is available.Noninvasive markers give only indirect assessments of disease activity.Histopathological or endoscopical examinations accurately assess inflammatory activity,but they are invasive,time consuming and expensive and therefore are unsuitable for routine use.Imaging procedures are not applicable for ulcerative colitis.The usefulness of ultrasound and Doppler imag-ing in assessing disease activity is still a matter of discussion for Crohn's disease,and an increased interest in computed tomography enterograph (CTE) has been seen,mainly because it can delineate the extent and severity of bowel wall inflammation,besides detecting extraluminal findings.Until now,the available data concerning the accuracy of magnetic resonance enterography in detecting disease activity is less than CTE.Due to this,clinical activity indices are still commonly used for both diseases. | Eduardo Garcia Vilela Henrique Osvaldo da Gama Torres Fabiana Paiva Martins Maria de Lourdes de Abreu Ferrari Marcella Menezes Andrade Aloísio Sales da Cunha | 2012 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2012，18，9： | 23 |
| 4 | Adsorption of Mn^(2+) from aqueous solution using Fe and Mn oxide-coated sand显示文摘The adsorption of Mn2+ onto immobilized Mn-oxide and Fe-oxide adsorbent such as manganese oxide-coated sand 1 (MOCS1), manganese oxide-coated sand2 (MOCS2), iron oxide-coated sand2 (IOCS2), and manganese and iron oxide-coated sand (MIOCS)was investigated. The effects of pH (5.5 to 8.0) and temperature (25 to45°C) on the equilibrium capacitywere examined. Equilibrium studies showed that there is a good fitwith both Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm,which indicates surface heterogeneity and monolayer adsorption of the adsorbents. Kineticdata showed high correlationwith the pseudo second-order model,which signifies a chemisorption-controlled mechanism. The activation energies, activation parameters (ΔG*,ΔH*,ΔS*), and thermodynamic parameters (ΔG0 , ΔH0 , ΔS0 ) confirmed that adsorptionwith MIOCSwas endothermic and more spontaneous at higher temperaturewhile an opposite trendwas observed for the other adsorbents. Thermodynamic studies showed that adsorption involved formation of activated complex,where MOCS1 and MIOCS follow a physical-chemical mechanism,while MOCS2 and IOCS2 follows purely chemical mechanism. | Chi-Chuan Kan Mannie C Aganon Cybelle Morales Futalan Maria Lourdes P Dalida | 2013 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2013，25，7： | 11 |
| 5 | Expression of triggering receptor on myeloid cell 1 and histocompatibility complex molecules in sepsis and major abdominal surgery显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the surface expression of triggering receptor on myeloid cell 1 (TREM-1), class Ⅱ major histocompatibility complex molecules (HLA-DR), andthe expression of the splicing variant (svTREM-1) ofTREM-1 in septic patients and those subjected to major abdominal surgery.METHODS: Using flow cytometry, we examined the surface expression of TREM-1 and HLA-DR in peripheral blood monocytes from 11 septic patients, 7 elective gastrointestinal surgical patients, and 10 healthy volunteers. svTREM-1 levels were analyzed by RT-PCR. RESULTS: Basal expression of TREM-1 and HLA-DR in healthy volunteers was 35.91±14.75 MFI and75.8±18.3%, respectively. In septic patients, TREM-1 expression was 59.9±23.9 MFI and HLA-DR expression was 44.39±20.25%, with a significant differencebetween healthy and septic groups (P<0.05) for bothmolecules. In the surgical patients, TREM-1 and HLA-DR expressions were 56.8±20.85 MFI and 71±13.8% before surgery and 72.65±29.92 MlFI and 72.82±22.55% after surgery. TREM-1 expression was significantly different(P = 0.0087) between the samples before and aftersurgery and svTREM-1 expression was 0.8590±0.1451 MF1, 0.8820±0.1460 MF1, and 2.210±0.7873MF1 in the healthy, surgical (after surgery) and septic groups, respectively. There was a significant difference (P = 0.048) in svTREM-1 expression between the healthy and surgical groups and the septic group.CONCLUSION: TREM-1 expression is increased during systemic inflammatory conditions such as sepsis and the postoperative phase. Simultaneous low expression of HLA-DR molecules correlates with the severity of illness and increases susceptibility to infection. Additionally, TREM-1 expression is distinctly different in surgical patients at different stages of the inflammatory response before and after surgery. Thus, surface TREM-1 appears to be an endogenous signal during the course of the inflammatory response. svTREM-1 expression is significantly increased during sepsis, appearing to be an indicator of severity of illness. Together, these data indicate that TREM-1 may play an important role in establishing and amplifying the systemic inflammatory response. TREM-1, HLA-DR, and svTREM-1 expression analysis can provide useful diagnostic and prognostic indicators during SIRS, CARS, and sepsis. | Nestor González-Roldán Eduardo Ferat-Osorio Rosalía Aduna-Vicente Isabel Wong-Baeza Noemí Esquivel-Callejas Horacio Astudillo-de la Vega Patricio Sánchez-Fernández Lourdes Arriaga-Pizano Miguel Angel Villasís-Keever Constantino López-Macías Armando Isibasi | 2005 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2005，11，47： | 9 |
| 6 | Functions of NKG2D in CD8^(+) T cells: an opportunity for immunotherapy显示文摘Natural killer group 2 member D(NKG2D)is a type II transmembrane receptor.NKG2D is present on NK cells in both mice and humans,whereas it is constitutively expressed on CD8+T cells in humans but only expressed upon T-cell activation in mice.NKG2D is a promiscuous receptor that recognizes stress-induced surface ligands.In NK cells,NKG2D signaling is sufficient to unleash the killing response;in CD8+T cells,this requires concurrent activation of the T-cell receptor(TCR).In this case,the function of NKG2D is to authenticate the recognition of a stressed target and enhance TCR signaling.CD28 has been established as an archetype provider of costimulation during T-cell priming.It has become apparent,however,that signals from other costimulatory receptors,such as NKG2D,are required for optimal T-cell function outside the priming phase.This review will focus on the similarities and differences between NKG2D and CD28;less well-described characteristics of NKG2D,such as the potential role of NKG2D in CD8+T-cell memory formation,cancer immunity and autoimmunity;and the opportunities for targeting NKG2D in immunotherapy. | Kushal Prajapati Cynthia Perez Lourdes Beatriz Plaza Rojas Brianna Burke Jose A Guevara-Patino | 2018 | Cellular & Molecular Immunology2018，15，5： | 7 |
| 7 | Modulation of faecal metagenome in Crohn's disease:Role of microRNAs as biomarkers显示文摘BACKGROUND The gut microbiota plays a key role in the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis and the development and activation of the host immune system. It has been shown that commensal bacterial species can regulate the expression of host genes. 16 S rRNA gene sequencing has shown that the microbiota in inflammatory bowel disease(IBD) is abnormal and characterized by reduced diversity. Micro RNAs(miRNAs) have been explored as biomarkers and therapeutic targets, since they are able to regulate specific genes associated with Crohn's disease(CD). In this work, we aim to investigate the composition of gut microbiota of active treatment-na?ve adult CD patients, with miRNA profile from gut microbiota.AIM To investigate the composition of gut microbiota of active treatment-na?ve adult CD patients, with miRNA profile from gut microbiota.METHODS Patients attending the outpatient clinics at Valme University Hospital without relevant co-morbidities were matched according to age and gender. Faecal samples of newonset CD patients, free of treatment, and healthy controls were collected. Faecal samples were homogenized, and DNA was amplified by PCR using primers directed to the 16 S bacterial rRNA gene. Pyrosequencing was performed using GS-Junior platform. For sequence analysis, MGRAST server with the database Ribosomal Project was used. MiRNA profile and their relative abundance were analyzed by quantitative PCR.RESULTS Microbial community was characterized using 16 S rRNA gene sequencing in 29 samples(n = 13 CD patients, and n = 16 healthy controls). The mean Shannon diversity was higher in the healthy control population compared to CD group(5.5 vs 3.7). A reduction in Firmicutes and an increase in Bacteroidetes were found. Clostridia class was also significantly reduced in CD. Principal components analysis showed a grouping pattern, identified in most of the subjects in both groups, showing a marked difference between control and CD groups. A functional metabolic study showed that a lower metabolism of carbohydrates(P = 0.000) was found in CD group, while the metabolism of lipids was increased. In CD patients, three miRNAs were induced in affected mucosa: mir-144(6.2 ± 1.3 fold), mir-519(21.8 ± 3.1) and mir-211(2.3 ± 0.4). CONCLUSION Changes in microbial function in active non-treated CD subjects and three miRNAs in affected vs non-affected mucosa have been found. miRNAs profile may serve as a biomarker. | María Rojas-Feria Teresa Romero-García Jose Angel Fernández Caballero-Rico Helena Pastor Ramírez Marta Avilés-Recio Manuel Castro-Fernandez Natalia Chueca Porcuna Manuel Romero-Gomez Federico García Lourdes Grande JoséA Del Campo | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018，24，46： | 7 |
| 8 | Photocatalytic degradation of paraquat using nano-sized Cu-TiO_2 /SBA-15 under UV and visible light显示文摘Photocatalytic degradation of paraquat using mesoporous-assembled Cu-TiO2 /SBA15 under UV and visible light was investigated.The catalyst was synthesized by impregnation of Cu-TiO2 colloids onto SBA-15.The colloids of Cu-TiO2 were prepared via solgel method while the mesoporous support was prepared using hydrothermal technique.The catalyst was characterized using X-ray diffraction,nitrogen adsorption-desorption,transmission electron microscopy,UV diffuse reflectance spectroscopy,Zeta potential and X-ray adsorption spectroscopy.Results from characterizations showed that Cu doped TiO2 had a small crystalline size and was welldispersed on SBA-15.The inclusion of SBA-15 significantly enhanced the photocatalytic activity of the catalyst.Among the three types of undoped catalyst in this study (P25,TiO2,TiO_2 /SBA-15),TiO2 /SBA-15 yielded the highest degradation of paraquat for all pH under UV illumination.Meanwhile 2 wt.% Cu-TiO2 /SBA-15 yielded the highest activity under visible light. | Maurice G.Sorolla II Maria Lourdes Dalida Pongtanawat Khemthong Nurak Grisdanurak | 2012 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2012，24，6： | 6 |
| 9 | Millisecond synthesis of CoS nanopartides for highly efficient overall water splitting显示文摘High performance and low-cost electrocatalysts for overall water splitting,i.e.,catalyzing hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions with the same material,are of great importance for large-scale,renewable energy conversion processes.Here,we report an ultrafast(~7 ms)synthesis tech nique for tran sition metal chalcoge nide n anoparticles assisted by high temperature treatme nt.As a proof of con cept,we dem on strate that cobalt sulfide(~20 nm in diameter)@few-layer graphe ne(~2 nm in thick ness)core-shell nan oparticles embedded in RGO nano sheets exhibit remarkable bifunctional electrocatalytic activity and stability for overall water splitting,which is comparable to commercial 40 wt.%platinum/carbon(Pt/C)electrocatalysts.After 60 h of continuous operation,10 mA crrT?water splitting current density can still be achieved at a low potential of^1.77 V without any activity decay,which is among the most active for non-noble material based electrocatalysts.The presented study provides prospects in synthesizing highly efficient bifunctional electrocatalysts for large-scale energy conversion application via a simple yet efficient technique. | Yanan Chen Shaomao Xu Shuze Zhu Rohit Jiji Jacob Glenn Pastel Yanbin Wang Yiju Li Jiaqi Dai Fengjuan Chen Hua Xie Boyang Liu Yonggang Yao Lourdes G.

| 10 | Influence of CFH,HTRA1 and ARMS2 polymorphisms in the response to intravitreal ranibizumab treatment for wet age-related macular degeneration in a Spanish population显示文摘AIM:To determine whether gene polymorphisms of the major genetic risk loci for age-related macular degeneration(AMD):ARMS2(rs10490923),the complement factor H(CFH)(rs1410996) and HTRA1(rs11200638) influence the response to a treatment regimen with ranibizumab for exudative AMD.METHODS:This study included 100 patients(100 eyes)with exudative AMD.Patients underwent a treatment with ranibizumab injections monthly during three months.Reinjections were made when the best corrected visual acuity(BCVA) decrease five letters(ETDRS) or central subfield retinal thickness gained 100 pm in optical coherence tomography image.Genotypes(rs10490923,rs1410996 and rs11200638) were analyzed using TaqMan probes or polymerase chain reaction-restricted fragment length polymorphisms analysis.RESULTS:There were no statistically significant differences in allelic distribution of CFH(rs1410996),ARMS2(rs10490923) and HTRA1(rs11200638)polymorphisms regarding to response to ranibizumab treatment.CONCLUSION:Ranibizumab treatment response is not related to CFH(rs1410996),ARMS2(rs10490923) and HTRA1(rs11200638) poymorphisms. | Fernando Cruz-Gonzalez Lucia Cabrillo-Estevez Vanesa Rivero-Gutierrez Ana Sanchez-Jara Lourdes De Juan-Marcos Rogelio Gonzalez-Sarmiento | 2016 | International Journal of Ophthalmology(English edition)2016，9，9： | 5 |
| 11 | Biliary carcinoembryonic antigen levels in diagnosis of occult hepatic metastases from colorectal carcinoma显示文摘AIM: To prospectively explore the role of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in gallbladder bile in patients with colorectal carcinoma and the morphological and clinical features of neoplasia and the occurrence of hepatic metastases.METHODS: CEA levels in the gallbladder and peripheral blood were studied in 44 patients with colorectal carcinoma and 10 patients with uncomplicated cholelithiasis. CEA samples were collected from the gallbladder bile and peripheral blood during the operation, immediately before extirpating the colorectal neoplasia or cholecystectomy.Values of up to 5 ng/ml were considered normal for bile and serum CEA.RESULTS: In the 44 patients with colorectal carcinoma who underwent operation with curative intent, the average level of serum CEA was 8.5 ng/ml (range: 0.1 to 111.0 ng/ml) and for bile CEA it was 74.5 ng/ml (range: 0.2 to 571.0ng/ml). In the patients with uncomplicated cholelithiasis who underwent cholecystectomy, the average level of serum CEA was 1.9 ng/ml (range: 1.0 to 3.5 ng/ml) and for bile CEA it was 1.2 ng/ml (range: 0.3 to 2.9 ng/ml).The average duration of follow-up time was 16.5 months (range: 6 to 48 months). Four patients who underwent extirpation of the colorectal carcinoma without evidence of hepatic metastasis and with an average bile CEA value of 213.2 ng/ml presented hepatic metastases between three and seventeen months after removal of the primary colorectal neoplasia. Three of them successfully underwent extirpation of the hepatic lesions.CONCLUSION: High CEA levels in gallbladders of patients undergoing curative operation for colorectal carcinoma may indicate the presence of hepatic metastases. Such patients must be followed up with special attention to the diagnosis of such lesions. | Jaques Waisberg Rogério T.Palma Luís Contim Neto Lourdes C.Martins Maurício S.L.Oliveira Carlos A.

| 12 | Exploratory study on microRNA profiles from plasma-derived extracellular vesicles in Alzheimer’s disease and dementia with Lewy bodies显示文摘Background:Because of the increasing life expectancy in our society,aging-related neurodegenerative disorders are one of the main issues in global health.Most of these diseases are characterized by the deposition of misfolded proteins and a progressive cognitive decline.Among these diseases,Alzheimer’s disease(AD)and dementia with Lewy bodies(DLB)are the most common types of degenerative dementia.Although both show specific features,an important neuropathological and clinical overlap between them hampers their correct diagnosis.In this work,we identified molecular biomarkers aiming to improve the misdiagnosis between both diseases.Methods:Plasma extracellular vesicles(EVs)-from DLB,AD and healthy controls-were isolated using size-exclusion chromatography(SEC)and characterized by flow cytometry,Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis(NTA)and cryo-electron microscopy.Next Generation Sequencing(NGS)and related bibliographic search was performed and a selected group of EV-associated microRNAs(miRNAs)was analysed by qPCR.Results:Results uncovered two miRNAs(hsa-miR-451a and hsa-miR-21-5p)significantly down-regulated in AD samples respect to DLB patients,and a set of four miRNAs(hsa-miR-23a-3p,hsa-miR-126-3p,hsa-let-7i-5p,and hsamiR-151a-3p)significantly decreased in AD respect to controls.The two miRNAs showing decreased expression in AD in comparison to DLB provided area under the curve(AUC)values of 0.9 in ROC curve analysis,thus suggesting their possible use as biomarkers to discriminate between both diseases.Target gene analysis of these miRNAs using prediction online tools showed accumulation of phosphorylation enzymes,presence of proteasome-related proteins and genes involved in cell death among others.Conclusion:Our data suggest that plasma-EV associated miRNAs may reflect a differential profile for a given dementia-related disorder which,once validated in larger cohorts of patients,could help to improve the differential diagnosis of DLB versus AD. | Ana Gámez-Valero Jaume Campdelacreu Dolores Vilas Lourdes Ispierto Ramón Reñé RamiroÁlvarez MPilar Armengol Francesc E.Borràs Katrin Beyer | 2019 | Translational Neurodegeneration2019，8，1： | 4 |
| 13 | Frailty and acute coronary syndrome: does gender matter?显示文摘There are important sex-related differences in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS).Women are older,more frequently frail,and present more comorbidities than men.Atypical symptoms at presentation are also more common in female patients,they are leaded to a delayed diagnosis and treatment.Coronary angiography and subsequent revascularization are frequently underused in elderly women and they tend to receive less guidelines-recommended therapies.The prognosis in elderly frail women with ACS is poor,and it is with high mortality and readmissions rates.Bleeding is recurrent ischemic events in which it is more frequent in women than in men.Recovery time might be long,and a multidisciplinary approach is desirable to improve prognosis and quality of life.Further studies are needed in order to clarify the benefit of the different therapies in the group of frail women,and this is particularly true for revascularization,as scientific evidence in this group is very scarce. | Lourdes Vicent Manuel Martinez-Selles | 2019 | Journal of Geriatric Cardiology2019，16，2： | 4 |

| 15 | Nitrate regulates rhizobial and mycorrhizal symbiosis in common bean(Phaseolus vulgaris L.)显示文摘Nitrogen‐limited conditions are considered to be a prerequisite for legume‐rhizobial symbiosis, but the effects of nitrate‐rich conditions on symbiotic status remain poorly understood. We addressed this issue by examining rhizobial(Rhizobim tropici) and arbusclarmycorrhizal(Glomus intraradices) symbiosis in Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Negro Jamapa under nitrate pre‐incubation and continuous nitrate conditions. Our results indicate that nitrate pre‐incubation, independent of the concentration, did not affect nodule development. However, the continuous supply of nitrate at high concentrations impaired nodule maturation and nodule numbers. Low nitrate conditions, in addition to positively regulating nodule number, biomass, and nitrogenase activity, also extended the span of nitrogen‐fixing activity. By contrast, for arbuscular mycorrhizae, continuous 10 and 50mmol/L nitrate increased the percent root lengthcolonization, concomitantly reduced arbuscule size, and enhanced ammonia transport without affecting phosphate transport. Therefore, in this manuscript, we have proposed the importance of nitrate as a positive regulator in promoting both rhizobial and mycorrhizal symbiosis in the common bean. | Kalpana Nanjareddy Lourdes Blanco Manoj‐Kumar Arthikala Xochitl Alvarado Affantrange Federico Sánchez Miguel Lara | 2014 | Journal of Integrative Plant Biology2014，56，3： | 3 |
| 16 | Hepatitis B infection among adults in the philippines:A national seroprevalence study显示文摘AIM:To determine the prevalence of hepatitis B surface antigen(HBsAg)seropositivity among adult Filipinos.METHODS:Testing for HBsAg was performed on serum samples from persons aged ≥ 20 years old who participated in the National Nutrition and Health Survey(NNHeS)conducted in 2003.Information on age,sex,marital status,educational attainment,employment status,and income were collected.For this study,marital status was classified as never married or otherwise(i.e.,married,divorced,separated,widowed);educational attainment was classified as high school graduate or below or at least some tertiary education;and employment status was classified as currently employed or currently unemployed.Annual income was divided into 4 quartiles in Philippine pesos(PhP):Q1,≤ PhP 53064;Q2,PhP 53065-92192;Q3,PhP 92193-173387;and Q4,≥ PhP 173388.Prevalence estimates were weighted so that they represented the general population.Social and demographic factors were correlated with HBsAg seropositivity.Multivariate analysis was used to determine independent predictors of HBsAg seropositivity.RESULTS:A total of 2150 randomly selected adults,20 years and over,out of the 4753 adult participants of NNHeS were tested for HBsAg.The HBsAg seroprevalence was 16.7%(95%CI:14.3%-19.1%),which corresponded to an estimated 7278968 persons infected with hepatitis B.There was no significant difference between males and females(17.5% vs 16.0%;P = 0.555).This corresponded to an estimated 3721775 men and 3557193 women infected with hepatitis B.The HBsAg seroprevalence peaked at age 20-39 years old,with declining prevalence in the older age groups.The only independent predictor of HBsAg seropositivity was the annual income,with persons in the highest income quartile being less likely to be HBsAg positive(age-adjusted OR = 0.51;95%CI:0.30-0.86)compared to subjects in the lowest income quartile.Sex,marital status,educational attainment,and employment status were not found to be independent predictors of HBsAg seropositivity.CONCLUSION:The high HBsAg seroprevalence among adults in the Philippines classifies the country as hyperendemic for HBV infection and appears unchanged over the last few decades. | Stephen N Wong Janus P Ong Madalinee Eternity D Labio Oscar T Cabahug Maria Lourdes O Daez Erlinda V Valdellon Jose D Sollano Jr Marilyn O Arguillas | 2013 | World Journal of Hepatology2013，5，4： | 3 |
| 17 | Treatment with dimethyl fumarate ameliorates liver ischemia/reperfusion injury显示文摘AIM To investigate the hypothesis that treatment with dimethyl fumarate(D MF) mayame liorate liver ischemia/reperfusion injury(I/RI).METHODS Rats were divided into 3 groups: sham, control(CTL), and DMF. DMF(25 mg/kg, twice/d) was orally administered for 2 d before the procedure. The CTL and DMF rats were subjected to ischemia for 1 h and reperfusion for 2 h. The serum alanine aminotransferase(ALT) and malondialdehyde(MDA) levels, adenosine triphosphate(ATP), NO × metabolites, anti-oxidant enzyme expression level, antiinflammatory effect, and anti-apoptotic effect were determined.RESULTS Histological tissue damage was significantly reduced in the DMF group(Suzuki scores: sham: 0 ± 0; CTL: 9.3± 0.5; DMF: 2.5 ± 1.2; sham vs CTL, P < 0.0001; CTL vs DMF, P < 0.0001). This effect was associated with significantly lower serum ALT(DMF 5026 ± 2305 U/L vs CTL 10592 ± 1152 U/L, P = 0.04) and MDA(DMF 18.2 ± 1.4 μmol/L vs CTL 26.0 ± 1.0 μmol/L, P = 0.0009). DMF effectively improved the ATP content(DMF 20.3 ± 0.4 nmol/mg vs CTL 18.3 ± 0.6 nmol/mg, P = 0.02), myeloperoxidase activity(DMF 7.8 ± 0.4 m U/m L vs CTL 6.0 ± 0.5 m U/m L, P = 0.01) and level of endothelial nitric oxide synthase expression(DMF 0.38 ± 0.05-fold vs 0.17 ± 0.06-fold, P = 0.02). The higher expression levels of anti-oxidant enzymes(catalase and glutamatecysteine ligase modifier subunit and lower levels of key inflammatory mediators(nuclear factor-kappa B and cyclooxygenase-2 were confirmed in the DMF group.CONCLUSION DMF improved the liver function and the anti-oxidant and inflammation status following I/RI. Treatment with DMF could be a promising strategy in patients with liver I/RI. | Chie Takasu Nosratola D Vaziri Shiri Li Lourdes Robles Kelly Vo Mizuki Takasu Christine Pham Seyed H Farzaneh Mitsuo Shimada Michael J Stamos Hirohito Ichii | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017，23，25： | 3 |

| 19 | Dietary approach in the treatment of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease显示文摘Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) has been identified as one of the most prevalent chronic liver disease in adults and children populations. NAFLD is usually associated with the metabolic syndrome(MS), which is chiefly related to insulin resistance and its consequences. Insulin resistance has a crucial role in the pathogenesis of hepatic steatosis and potentially nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH). Because of the contemporary epidemics of MS and obesity, the burden of NAFLD is also expected to rise. Unhealthy diets, such as the so-called western diet, are enriched in fructose, trans-fatty acids and saturated fat and seem to be associated with the development of NAFLD. In human studies, certain dietary sugars, particularly fructose, are used as a substrate for lipogenesis leading to hepatic fatty infiltration, inflammation, and possibly fibrosis. Other investigations have shown that fat consumption especially cholesterol and trans/saturated fatty acids are also steatogenic and seem to increase visceral adiposity. The identification of specific dietary components that favor the development of NASH could be important for the management of this disorder. This review focuses on the effects of different dietary approaches to prevent and treat NAFLD emphasizing the macronutrients and energy composition. | Silvia Marinho Ferolla Luciana Costa Silva Maria de Lourdes Abreu Ferrari Aloísio Sales da Cunha Flaviano dos Santos Martins Cláudia Alves Couto Teresa Cristina Abreu Ferrari | 2015 | World Journal of Hepatology2015，7，24： | 2 |
