基于“心与小肠相表里”理论探讨肠道微生态与骨质疏松症的关系

近年来相关研究显示,肠道微生态在骨质疏松症的发生发展中起着重要作用。中医脏腑理论密切关注脏腑之间的生理病理关系,以中医经典《内经》“心与小肠相表里”理论为基础,探讨心、小肠、肠道微生态与骨质疏松症之间的关系。研究发现肠道微生态可能是心系疾病导致骨质疏松症的途径之一,这一发现可能为骨质疏松症的研究与防治提供一定的理论依据。     

Íleo biliar como causa de dolor abdominal en el paciente anciano

Gallstone ileus is a rare and potentially serious complication of cholelithiasis. It is defined as a mechanical intestinal obstruction secondary to the presence of a gallstone in the intestinal luz. The most frequent cause is impaction of the calculus in the ileum after passing through a bilioenteric fístula. It has a high morbidity and mortality rate, mainly due to the difficulty and delay in its diagnosis. A retrospective study is presented of 4 cases of gallstone ileus treated between 2013 and 2017 in the Hospital Nuestra Señora del Prado. An analysis was performed on the clinical characteristics, diagnostic tests, and surgical treatment.     

Dietary Mannan-oligosaccharides potentiate the beneficial effects of Bifidobacterium bifidum in broiler chicken

This study investigated the effects of dietary Bifidobacterium bifidum (BFD) and mannan-oligosaccharide (MOS), as a synbiotic, on the production performance, gut microbiology, serum biochemistry, antioxidant profile and health indices of broiler chicken. Six dietary treatments were T1 (negative control), T2 (positive control-20 mg antibiotic BMD kg⁻¹ diet; BMD: bacitracin methylene disalicylate), T3 (0·1% MOS + 10⁶ CFU BFD per g feed), T4 (0·1% MOS + 10⁷ CFU BFD per g feed), T5 (0·2% MOS + 10⁶ CFU BFD per g feed) and T6 (0·2% MOS + 10⁷ CFU BFD per g feed). Significantly (P < 0·01) better growth performance and efficiency was observed in birds supplemented with 0·2% MOS along with 10⁶ CFU BFD per g of feed compared to BMD and control birds. Supplementation with 0·2% MOS along with either 10⁶ or 10⁷ CFU BFD per g feed reduced (P < 0·01) the gut coliform, Escherichia coli, total plate count, and Clostridium perfringens count and increased the Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium count. Significantly (P < 0·01) higher serum and liver antioxidant enzyme pool, serum HDL cholesterol and lower serum glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, cardiac risk ratio, atherogenic coefficient and atherogenic index of plasma were observed in birds supplemented with 0·2% MOS along with 10⁶ CFU BFD per g of feed compared to control or BMD supplemented birds. Better production performance, gut microbial composition, serum biochemistry, antioxidant profile and health indices were depicted by broiler chicken supplemented with 0·2% MOS and 10⁶ CFU BFD per g of feed.     

MicroPhenoDB Associates Metagenomic Datawith Pathogenic Microbes,Microbial Core Genes,and Human Disease Phenotypes

Microbes play important roles in human health and disease. The interaction between microbes and hosts is a reciprocal relationship, which remains largely under-explored. Current computational resources lack manually and consistently curated data to connect metagenomic data to pathogenic microbes, microbial core genes, and disease phenotypes. We developed the MicroPhenoDB database by manually curating and consistently integrating microbe-disease association data. MicroPhenoDB provides 5677 non-redundant associations between 1781 microbes and 542 human disease phenotypes across more than 22 human body sites. MicroPhenoDB also provides 696,934 relationships between 27,277 unique clade-specific core genes and 685 microbes. Disease phenotypes are classified and described using the Experimental Factor Ontology (EFO). A refined score model was developed to prioritize the associations based on evidential metrics. The sequence search option in MicroPhenoDB enables rapid identification of existing pathogenic microbes in samples without running the usual metagenomic data processing and assembly. MicroPhenoDB offers data browsing, searching, and visualization through user-friendly web interfaces and web service application programming interfaces. MicroPhenoDB is the first database platform to detail the relationships between pathogenic microbes, core genes, and disease phenotypes. It will accelerate metagenomic data analysis and assist studies in decoding microbes related to human diseases. MicroPhenoDB is available through http://www.liwzlab.cn/microphenodb and http://lilab2.sysu.edu.cn/microphenodb.     

不同肝血流阻断方式肝切除手术对原发性肝癌合并肝硬化患者肝功能及肠黏膜屏障的影响

目的:探讨肝切除手术运用Pringle法阻断、半肝血流阻断(HVC)后对原发性肝癌合并肝硬化患者肝功能及肠黏膜屏障的影响。方法:选取2016年4月～2019年9月期间我院收治的原发性肝癌合并肝硬化患者93例,根据随机数字表法将患者分为A组(n=46,Pringle法阻断)和B组(n=47,HVC),比较两组患者围术期指标、肝功能指标[谷丙转氨酶(ALT)、谷草转氨酶(AST)以及总胆红素(TBIL)]、肠黏膜屏障指标[D-乳酸,内毒素]及并发症发生情况。结果:两组阻断时间、术中失血量、手术时间比较无差异(P0.05);B组住院时间短于A组(P0.05)。两组术前、术后3 d、术后7 d ALT、AST、TBIL呈升高后降低趋势,且B组低于A组(P0.05)。两组患者术后并发症发生率比较无差异(P0.05)。两组术前、术后3 d、术后7dD-乳酸、内毒素呈升高后降低趋势,且B组低于A组(P0.05)。结论:与Pringle法阻断相比,原发性肝癌合并肝硬化患者在肝切除手术中运用HVC,可有效缩短住院时间,减轻肝功能及肠黏膜屏障损害,且不增加并发症发生率,临床应用价值较高。     

Evolution of specialized microbial cooperation in dynamic fluids

Here, we study the evolution of specialization using realistic computer simulations of bacteria that secrete two public goods in a dynamic fluid. Through this first‐principles approach, we find physical factors such as diffusion, flow patterns and decay rates are as influential as fitness economics in governing the evolution of community structure, to the extent that when mechanical factors are taken into account, (a) generalist communities can resist becoming specialists despite the invasion fitness of specialization; (b) generalist and specialists can both resist cheaters despite the invasion fitness of free‐riding; and (c) multiple community structures can coexist despite the opposing force of competitive exclusion. Our results emphasize the role of spatial assortment and physical forces on niche partitioning and the evolution of diverse community structures.     

孕妇肠道微生物组成与孕妇及新生儿糖脂代谢相关性研究

目的研究孕妇肠道微生物组成与孕妇以及新生儿糖脂代谢的相关性。方法选择2017年6月至2018年9月在大连市妇幼保健院定期产检的诊断为妊娠期糖尿病(GDM)的孕妇89例为GDM组,血糖正常孕妇96例为对照组。收集孕妇一般资料,孕妇和新生儿糖脂代谢物、孕妇粪便进行微生物检测。结果 GDM组孕妇空腹血糖、甘油三酯明显高于对照组,高密度脂蛋白水平明显低于对照组(均P<0.05)。GDM新生儿脂联素和血糖明显低于对照组,胰岛素和糖化血红蛋白明显高于对照组(均P<0.05)。对照组孕妇肠道微生物中拟杆菌(Bacteroides)丰富度最高(36.6%),其次是普雷沃菌(Prevotella)(15.3%)、柔嫩梭菌(Faecalibacterium)(10.2%)、考拉杆菌(Phascolarctobacterium)(7.2%)。GDM组孕妇肠道微生物中拟杆菌(Bacteroides)丰富度最高(29.4%),其次是柔嫩梭菌(Faecalibacterium)(19.7%)、普雷沃菌(Prevotella)(11.1%)、考拉杆菌(Phascolarctobacterium)(9.3%)。柔嫩梭菌(Faecalibacterium)与孕妇空腹血糖呈正相关(r=0.377 6,P=0.027 6),拟杆菌(Bacteroides)、埃希菌(Escherichia)与孕妇甘油三酯呈负相关(r=-0.027 5,-0.585 8,P=0.023 7,0.041 3)。柔嫩梭菌(Faecalibacterium)与新生儿空腹血糖呈负相关(r=-0.397 6,P=0.027 6)。结论 GDM孕妇肠道微生物构成与血糖正常孕妇不同,菌群丰富度和多样性较低,并且孕妇肠道菌群与其及新生儿的糖脂代谢相关,调节孕妇肠道菌群或有利于改善其与新生儿的糖脂代谢功能。     

肠道菌群与呼吸道感染患者免疫球蛋白的关系及其肠内营养的疗效

目的分析肠道菌群紊乱对呼吸道感染患者免疫球蛋白水平的影响,探讨肠内营养对此类患者的疗效。方法选取2016年2月至2018年12月在我院接受治疗的116例呼吸道感染患者作为观察组,进一步将其分为非菌群失调组(50例)和菌群失调组(66例),选取同期60例健康体检者作为对照组,比较各组对象肠道菌群失调情况和血清免疫球蛋白水平,同时对菌群失调患者在常规治疗基础上联合应用肠内营养治疗,观察其治疗效果。结果 (1)观察组患者肠道乳杆菌、双歧杆菌数量及双歧杆菌/大肠埃希菌比值(B/E)显著低于对照组,而肠球菌、大肠埃希菌数量显著高于对照组(均P0.05);观察组患者血清IgM、IgA、IgG水平均显著低于对照组(均P0.05);菌群失调组患者血清IgM、IgA、IgG水平均显著低于非菌群失调组(均P0.05)。(2)观察组患者肠道乳杆菌、双歧杆菌数量及B/E值与血清IgM、IgA、IgG水平呈显著正相关(均P0.05),而大肠埃希菌和肠球菌数量与之呈显著负相关(均P0.05)。(3)菌群失调组患者血清ALB、PA水平随治疗时间的延长而逐渐升高,CRP、PCT水平逐渐降低,IgM、IgA、IgG水平逐渐升高,乳杆菌、双歧杆菌数量和B/E值逐渐增加,大肠埃希菌和肠球菌数量逐渐减少(均P0.05)。结论呼吸道感染患者存在明显的肠道菌群失调情况,其与患者免疫球蛋白水平的降低有关,这可能是引发呼吸道感染的主要危险因素。肠内营养支持疗法能有效改善患者肠道菌群失调,降低血清炎性因子水平,增强机体免疫力,提高患者营养状况及治疗效果。     

利用宏基因组学方法分析健康人群肠道微生物与其生理指标的关系

目的探究亚洲健康人群的肠道菌群组成特征及其与血压和年龄相关生理指标的关系。方法应用WGCNA分析,对22个健康个体肠道微生物细菌基因组进行解析。结果亚洲健康人肠道微生物相对丰度最高的细菌门水平分别是Firmicutes(厚壁菌门)、 Bacteroidetes(拟杆菌门)以及Proteobacteria(变形菌门),并且在Proteobacteria中显示高差异性。WGCNA分析结果表明两个模块(yellow,green)中微生物物种丰富度分别与收缩压和舒张压以及年龄呈正相关(t=3.098 1,P=0.005 6;t=3.015 9,P=0.006 8;t=2.390 8,P=0.026 7)。其中Ruminococcus sp.(瘤胃球菌)、Oscillospiraceae sp.(颤螺菌)、Clostridium hathewayi(哈氏梭菌)与血压呈现显著正相关;Intestinibacter(肠杆菌)、Clostridium(梭菌)、Blautia(劳特菌)以及Veillonella(韦荣球菌)属下的Aypic、Tobetsuensis rogosae与年龄呈现正相关。抗性基因注释结果表明,年龄和血压相关核心菌群均富集有较多的大环内酯-林可酰胺-链霉素类、杆菌肽类以及四环素类抗生素抗性基因。其中多黏菌素类抗性基因仅存在于年龄相关核心菌群而氯霉素抗性基因仅存在于血压相关核心菌群。结论健康人肠道微生物物种丰度与血压以及年龄相关,肠道菌群可能在心血管疾病以及衰老过程中发挥重要影响。     

幽门螺杆菌根除治疗对慢性胃炎患者肠道菌群的影响及其与血清hsCRP水平的相关性

目的探究幽门螺杆菌(H.pylori)根除治疗对慢性胃炎患者肠道菌群的影响及其与血清超敏C反应蛋白(hsCRP)水平的相关性。方法选择2018年5月至2019年5月我院收治的87例慢性胃炎患者为研究对象,所有患者均采用枸橼酸铋钾胶囊+雷贝拉唑钠肠溶胶囊+克拉霉素片+阿莫西林克拉维酸钾片进行幽门螺杆菌根除治疗,评价所有患者治疗后临床疗效、H.pylori根除率,比较所有患者治疗前后临床症状积分,肠道肠球菌、葡萄球菌、肠杆菌、乳杆菌、双歧杆菌数量及血清hsCRP水平,采用Pearson相关分析所有患者治疗后肠道菌群数量与血清hsCRP水平的相关性。结果入选患者临床治疗有效率为95.40%,H.pylori根除率为90.80%。患者治疗后腹胀、嗳气、腹痛、纳差评分显著低于治疗前(均P<0.05)。治疗后患者肠道肠球菌、葡萄球菌数量显著高于治疗前,而肠杆菌、乳杆菌、双歧杆菌数量显著低于治疗前(均P<0.05)。患者治疗后血清hsCRP水平显著低于治疗前(P<0.05)。患者治疗后肠道肠球菌、葡萄球菌、乳杆菌、肠杆菌、双歧杆菌数量与血清hsCRP水平无显著相关性(均P>0.05)。结论H.pylori根除治疗能有效改善慢性胃炎患者临床症状,提高H.pylori根除率,降低血清hsCRP水平,但会造成患者肠道菌群失调,且肠道菌群数量与血清hsCRP水平无显著相关性。
