To explore the relationship between the severity of hypertension and the imbalanced intestinal flora, inflammatory factors, adiponectin (ADPN) and vascular endothelial function in primary hypertension patients. According to the grading criteria for hypertension, in total of 60 patients with primary hypertension in our hospital from April to July, 2020 were divided into Grade 1 group (n = 20), Grade 2 group (n = 20), and Grade 3 group (n = 20). The feces of the research subjects were collected to extract the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and detect its composition of intestinal flora.

- Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) shows promise for reducing inflammation in the intestines of grass carp, which has been previously established in mammals, but remains under-researched in fish.
- A 65-day study tested various diets with different CLA levels on grass carp, revealing that 1.5% to 2% CLA improved intestinal structure and boosted anti-inflammatory cytokine levels while reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines.
- The findings suggest that CLA might exert its anti-inflammatory effects through a specific signaling pathway (TLR4/NF-κB), indicating its potential therapeutic benefits for fish health.

Objective: To examine the extent of hypoxia in oral squamous cell carcinoma and investigate the factors related to the hypoxia.
Methods: An animal model of oral squamous cell carcinoma was established and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with 99mTc-HL91 used to detect the hypoxia extent of the oral squamous cell carcinoma. The expression of hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1alpha) was examined by immunohistochemical staining in 42 cases of formalin-fixed paraffin-embed squamous cell carcinoma.
