To elucidate age-related changes of mineral contents in human veins, the relative contents (RCs) of elements in the human
internal jugular veins, superior and inferior venae cavae, and femoral veins from 27 subjects ranging from 40 to 98 yr old
were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry.
The average RCs of calcium in the 27 specimens were the highest in the internal jugular vein, followed in descending order
by the superior vena cava, femoral vein, and inferior vena cava.
The RCs of calcium and phosphorus in the internal jugular veins started to increase after the age of 50 yr, became the highest
in subjects in their 60s and thereafter decreased gradually. It is noted that such accumulations of minerals, similar to the
internal jugular vein, were also found in the veins, such as the superior and inferior venae cavae, and femoral vein. Accumulation
of minerals in the veins is different from that of arteries, which increase progressively by aging, but do not decrease. 相似文献

31 years lady with complete atrioventricular canal defect, large primum atrial septal defect (ASD), inlet ventricular septal defect (VSD) and Eisenmenger syndrome, presented with atrial flutter and complete heart block. She was not suitable for corrective cardiac surgery and not yet indicated for heart-lung transplantation. She was advised single chamber permanent pacemaker and eventually Micra VR transcatheter leadless pacemaker was finalised for her. Transcatheter leadless pacemaker was deployed in her RV septum despite some unforeseen technical problems. This patient had intrahepatic interruption of IVC with Azygous continuation draining into SVC but this altered venovascular course was detected only fluoroscopically midway during the pacemaker implantation procedure and this was not detected in the preprocedural transthoracic echocardiography. This abnormal venous course was clearly demonstrated in the cardiac CT which was performed only after completion of the pacemaker implantation procedure in this patient. The technical challenges encountered mainly were mostly during the manipulation of the 27F delivery catheter of Micra through this altered cardiovascular anatomy via transfemoral approach and also due to the presence of septal defects. Thus, transcatheter leadless permanent pacemaker was implanted successfully through transfemoral access in this complex congenital heart disease with interrupted IVC and azygous continuation. Besides transthoracic echocardiography, it may be better to perform transesophageal echocardiography or even preferably radiological imaging like cardiac CT or MRI prior to transcatheter leadless pacemaker implantation in patients with complex congenital heart disease to understand the cardiovascular anatomy and plan the procedure. 相似文献

Although the conventional methods for endo-cardial pacemaker lead implantation via subclavian or cephalic or axillary vein routes is common, but sometimes due to anatomical variations it is not feasible to access these veins Emergence of newer techniques are useful for lead implantation. This case report focuses on a hybrid approach of combined mini-thoracotomy for endocardial pacemaker lead implantation. This fluoroscopy guided minimal thoracotomy approach with endocardial MRI compatible lead placement had the benefits of simple procedural, minimal hospital stay, low early complication rates and economically viable to the patient. 相似文献

Hybrid zones have long been of interest to biologists as natural laboratories where we can gain insight into the processes of adaptation and speciation. Repeated sampling of individual hybrid zones has been particularly useful in elucidating the dynamic balance between selection and dispersal that maintains most hybrid zones. Here, we revisit a hybrid zone between Heliconius erato butterflies in Panamá for a third time over more than 30 years. We combine a novel Bayesian extension of stepped‐cline hybrid zone models with environmental data to understand the genetic and environmental causes of cline dynamics in this species. The cline has continued to move west, likely due to dominance drive, but has slowed and broadened. Environmental analyses suggest that widespread deforestation in Panamá could be leading to decreased avian predation and relaxed selection, causing the observed changes in cline dynamics. 相似文献

Aim This paper presents a probabilistic method for the characterization of pollen taxa using attributes, and for the reconstitution of past biomes. The probabilities are calculated on the basis of European floristic and pollen databases sufficiently large and exhaustive to provide robust estimates. Location The analysis is based on data from approximately 1000 sites throughout Europe. Method We use all the pollen data from the European Pollen Database (EPD), which contains about 50 000 pollen assemblages distributed across Europe and covering the period from the Last Glacial Maximum to the present. Using existing floras, each pollen taxon has been characterized by allocating one or more modes of several attributes, chosen according to the biogeography and phenology of the taxon. With this information, conditional probabilities are defined, representing the chance of a given attribute mode occurring in a given pollen spectrum, when the taxa assemblage is known. The concept of co‐occurrence is used to provide a greater amount of information to compensate for difficulties in the identification of pollen grains, allowing a better interpretation when there is little diversity in the pollen assemblage. Results The method has been validated using a dataset of modern samples against existing methods of biome classification and remote sensing data. An application is proposed in which the new method is used to produce biomes for pollen data 6000 years ago. This confirms previous results showing an extension of the deciduous forest to the north, east and south, explained by milder winters in western and northern Europe, and cooler and wetter climate in the Mediterranean region. Conclusion The results show the new method to be efficient, reliable and flexible and to be an improvement over the previous method of biomization. They will be used to test simulations of earth system models running on periods with climate significantly different from the present day, enabling a robust test of the validity of applying these models to the future. 相似文献

Bcl‐xL, a member of the Bcl‐2 family, is known to inhibit apoptosis of recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (rCHO) cells induced by the addition of sodium butyrate (NaBu), which is used for the elevated expression of recombinant protein. In order to understand the intracellular effects of Bcl‐xL overexpression on CHO cells treated with NaBu, changes to the proteome caused by controlled Bcl‐xL expression in rCHO cells producing erythropoietin (EPO) in the presence of 3 mM NaBu were evaluated using two‐dimensional differential in‐gel electrophoresis (2D‐DIGE) and MS analysis. The consequences of Bcl‐xL overexpression were not limited to the apoptotic signaling pathway. Out of eight proteins regulated significantly by Bcl‐xL overexpression in 3 mM NaBu addition culture, four proteins were related to cell survival (Iq motif‐containing GTPase‐activating protein 1), cell proliferation (dihydrolipoamide‐S‐acetyltransferase, guanine nucleotide binding protein alpha interacting 2), and repair of DNA damage (BRCA and CDKN1A interacting protein). Taken together, a DIGE approach reveals that overexpression of Bcl‐xL not only inhibits apoptosis in the presence of NaBu but also affects cell proliferation and survival in various aspects.

Few botanical studies have explored the potential of nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) data obtained through genome skimming for phylogeny reconstruction. Here, we analyzed the phylogenetic information included in the nrDNA and mtDNA of 44 species of the “Adenocalymma‐Neojobertia” clade (Bignoniaceae). To deal with intraindividual polymorphisms within the nrDNA, different coding schemes were explored through the analyses of four datasets: (i) “nrDNA contig,” with base call following the majority rule; (ii) “nrDNA ambiguous,” with ambiguous base calls; (iii) “nrDNA informative,” with ambiguities converted to multistate characters; and, (iv) “mitochondrial,” with 39 mitochondrial genes. Combined analyses using the nrDNA and mtDNA data and previously published “plastid” datasets were also conducted. Trees were obtained using Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian criteria. The congruence among genomes was assessed. The nrDNA datasets were shown to be highly polymorphic within individuals, while the “mitochondrial” dataset was the least informative, with 0.36% of informative bases within the ingroup. The topologies inferred using the nrDNA and mtDNA datasets were broadly congruent with the tree derived from the analyses of the “plastid” dataset. The topological differences recovered were generally poorly supported. The topology that resulted from the analyses of the “combined” dataset largely resembles the “plastid” tree. These results highlight limitations of nuclear ribosomal DNA and mitochondrial genes for phylogeny reconstruction obtained through genome skimming and the need to include more data from both genomes. The different topologies observed among genomes also highlight the importance of exploring data from various genomes in plant phylogenetics. 相似文献
