Objective To compare the effects of different resuscitation pressure on lung function of rats with uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock.Methods Uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock model of rats was built.Sixty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly sent into six groups: NC group (the control group),NF group (shock but non-resuscitation),NS40,NS60 group (limited fluid resuscitation),NS80,NS100 group (large-volume fluid resuscitation).When the mean arterial pressure (MAP) reached between 35 mm Hg to 40 mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133kPa) resuscitation was begun,normal saline infusion was used to maintain the following desired endpoints.After the fluid resuscitation for one hour,rats of each fluid resuscitation group were given haemostasis and all-out fluid resuscitation,including blood infusion,to maintain the rats' MAP at 90 mm Hg.Results Findings showed that the blood loss in limited fluid resuscitation groups was significantly lower than that in large-volume fluid resuscitation groups at the situation of uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock,damage to lung tissue pathology and acidosis were significantly lower than those in large-volume fluid resuscitation groups.Nine rats in NS60 group survived 72 hours.Three rats in NS40 group survived 72 hours.No rat in NF group as well as in both NS80 and NS100 groups survived 72 hours.Conclusions Uncontrolled hem-orrhagic shock in trauma and different pressure of fluid resuscitation can cause lung injury to varying de-grees.Limited fluid resuscitation provide significant protective effects against such injuries.

Objective To describe the status of nurses′professional identity and the self-concept and to explore the relationship between nurses′professional identity and the self-concept. This will be the base for intervening nurses′professional identity. Methods A convenience sample of 250 nurses from one major hospital in Beijing was recruited. The Macleod Clark Professional Identity Scale and the Professional Self-Concept Instrument were introduced. A standard translation procedure was carried out. Results A total of 250 questionnaires were sent out, 241 questionnaires were withdrawed with an effective rate of 96.4%. The mean score of nurses′professional identity was 42.54±8.70, which was at moderate level. The mean score of nurses′professional self-concept was 86.28 ±22.86, also at moderate level, among which,knowledgescores highest (25.91±6.00), leadership scored 20.84±8.02, inter-personal relationship scored (20.28±4.18), caring scored the lowest (19.25±4.67). There was significant difference among the professional identity in the different departments (P<0.05) , while the same results were not seen in professional self-concept. Nurses′professional identity was positively correlated with professional self-concept′s four dimensions (P<0.05). Conclusions The nurse managers should pay attention to the cultivation of professional self-concept in the training of nurses in order to improve the professional identity of nurses and the whole nurses′development.

Objective To investigate the application and clinical significance of 24-hour multichannel intraaluminal impedance-pH (MII-pH) monitoring in gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).Methods Fiftythree patients with GERD were enrolled in this study according to the Montreal consensus (consulting for twice reflux a week or above) from July 2011 to June 2012.Patients were divided into erosive esophagitis (EE,n =25)group and non-erosive reflux disease (NERD,n =28) group after endoscopy and MII-pH monitoring.Fifteen healthy volunteers were recruited as the normal controls.The change of pH and MII-pH parameters were compared among the three groups and the significance of the change was investigated.Results Twenty-four-hour pH monitoring showed that all the acid reflux events in the EE and the NERD groups were significantly higher than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).MII-pH monitoring showed that the frequencies of total reflux,acid reflux,weakly acidic reflux and percentage of acid reflux in the GERD group were higher than in the control group (total reflux:83 (54,118) vs.62 (44,111) vs.42 (20,70),P =0.003 ; acid reflux:45 (25,79) vs.22 (11,45) vs.3(1,10),P =0.000 ;weakly acidic reflux:36(18,47) vs.43(21,82) vs.23(11,43),P =0.001 ;percentage of acid reflux:53％ (37％,81％) vs.32％ (13％,48％) vs.11％ (1％,23％),P =0.002).The frequency and percentage of acid reflux in the EE group were higher than those in the NERD group (P =0.000)The percentage of weakly acidic reflux in the NERD group was higher than in the EE group (66％ (43％,79％) vs.46％ (21％,57％),P ＜0.01).The frequencies of liquid reflux and mixed reflux in the GERD groups were higher than those in the control group (22 (12,40) vs.18 (12,26) vs.9 (4,18) ; 54 (39,79) vs.42 (25,77) vs.29(14,48) ;P ＜0.01).The frequency of gas reflux in the control group was higher than in the GERD group (86(56,207) vs.31 (14,62) vs.34 (15,119),P ＜ 0.01).The frequency and percentage of proximal reflux in the GERD group were significantly higher than in the control group (28(18,41) vs.16(12,34) vs.3 (2,9) ; 33％ (22％,49％) vs.29％ (22％,35％) vs.11％ (6％,22％),P ＜ 0.001).The percentage of symptom positive index in patients with acid reflux,non-acidic reflux and total reflux in the EE group were 36.0％ (9/25),20.0％ (5/25) and 56.0％ (14/25) respectively which were higher than in the NERD group (21.4％ (6/28),14.3％ (4/28) and 35.7％ (10/28)).Conclusion MII-pH monitoring can detect more reflux events.Acid reflux plays an important role in GERD.The detective rate of GERD will be elevated when combined with MII-pH monitoring in the diagnosis.MII-pH monitoring has a distinct advantage in diagnosing GERD.

Objective To investigate the relationship between microalbuminuria (MAU) and the risk factor for acute ischemic stroke,the severity of the disease and outcomes.Methods A total of 156 consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke were enrolled prospectively.They were randomly divided into either an MAU positive group (≥ 30 mg/g) or an MAU negative group (＜ 30 mg/g) according to urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (UACR).They were also randomly divided into either a good outcome group (0-2) or a poor outcome group (＞2) according to the modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores.The various demographic and clinical data were compared,and the poor outcome of acute ischemic stroke and the independent factors of positive MAU were analyzes.Results A total of 156 patients with acute ischemic stroke were enrolled,including 84 males and 72 female; aged 53 to 78 years (mean 65.4 ± 6.2); the time from onset to admission was 1.5 to 28 h; 94 patients had good outcomes,62 had poor outcomes,and no one died; MAU was positive in 76 patients and MAU was negative in 80 ones.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age (odds ratio [OR] 1.992,95％ confidence interval [CI] 1.108-2.374; P =0.015),complicated with diabetes (OR 2.497,95％ CI 1.177-5.298; P =0.017) and atrial fibrilhtion (OR 2.338,95％ CI 1.062-5.148; P =0.035),high serum homocysteine (Hcy) level (OR 2.541,95％ CI 1.073-6.02; P =0.047) and UACR (OR 2.130,95％ CI 1.396-3.017; P =0.001),MAU positive (OR 3.291,95％ CI 1.681-6.444; P =0.001),high baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (OR 9.196,95％ CI 2.828-19.815; P＜ 0.001) were the independent risk factors for poor outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke.There were significant differences in the proportion of the patients complicated with diabetes (P =0.038) and fasting blood glucose level (P =0.025),serum Hey level (P =0.022),and carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) (P =0.019) between the MAU positive group and the MAU negative group.The proportion of anterior circulation infarction was lower (P =0.033),the rates of the baseline NIHSS score (P =0.003) and poor outcome were higher in the MAU positive group (P ＜ 0.001).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that increased diabetes (OR 2.237,95％ CI 1.036-4.829; P =0.040) and fasting blood glucose (OR 1.223,95％ CI 1.145-1.673; P =0.027),the increased Hey level (OR 2.542,95％ CI 1.047-6.612; P=0.025),carotid artery IMT (OR 1.295,95％ CI 1.106-1.362; P =0.023) and baseline NIHSS score (OR1.206,95％ CI 1.044-1.219; P =0.023) were correlated independently with the positive MAU in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Conclusions Positive MAU is one of the independent risk factors for poor outcomes of acute ischemic stroke,it is closely associated with some risk factors for acute ischemic stroke,and it has a significant impact on the severity of acute ischemic stroke and outcomes.

Objective To investigate dyslipidemia and the use of lipid-lowering drugs in patients with chronic kidney diseases(CKD)and analyze the related risk factors.Methods A total of 397 out-patients with CKD in our Renal Department from March 2006 to March 2007 were enrolled;258 healthy people with similar age and sex were taken as the control group.Lipid levels were compared between the two groups and related factors were analyzed.Results Among 397 CKD patients,there were 52.1% patients with high triglyceride(TG),41% with high total cholesterol(TC),18.8% with low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),47.6% with high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C).Compared with controls,rates of hypertriglyceridemia and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in CKD group were higher(P

Objective To explore the role of Kv channel interacting protein 1(KChIP1)in the process of epileptic seizure and the relationship between KChIP1 and gamma-aminobutyric acid-(GABA)ergic neurons.Methods Normal female Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with pentylenetetrazole to make acute pentylenetetrazole models of epilepsy.Laser Scanning Confocal Microscope(LSCM)combined with double-labeled immunohistochemical technique was applied to observe the expression of the KChIP1 and the GABAergic neurons in the hippocampus of rats.Results The number of KChIP1-postive neurons in the hippocampus was significantly increased in the acute pentylenetetrazole model rats(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the number of double-labled neurons(P>0.05),nor of the GABA-postive neurons between the model rats and the controls.The ratio of double-labeled neurons/total positive neurons was 63.9% in the hippocampus.Conclusion The KChIP1 might be involved in epileptogenesis of pentylenetetrazole induced seizure.The KChIP1 was associated with GABAergic neurons,whereas it may be functionally different from GABA.

Objective To investigate the effect of small interfering RNA (siRNA) mediated silencing of △Np73 on 5-FU chemotherapy sensitivity in SW620 colocancer cells and provide new treatment approach for the colon cancer.Methods siRNAs were transfected into SW620 colon cancer cells.The expression of △Np73 was observed.Cell viability of colon cancer cells were measured by MTr assay and cell apoptosis was assessed with flow cytometry after treatment of control siRNA or △Np73 siRNA or combined with 5-FU,respectively.The tumorigenesis was assessed by injecting △Np73 siRNA or control siRNA transfeeted SW620 colon cancer cells into nude mice,followed by treatment with 5-FU in the tumors.Results △Np73 siRNA was able to strongly inhibit △Np73 expression,however,it did not inhibit the growth of cells.Combination treatment with △Np73 siRNA and 5-FU produced significant higher apoptotic cell(42.9%) as compared with those with 5-FU treatment(18.9%) alone or those with △Np73 siRNA(8.8%) alone.The treatment with 5-FU in the xenngrafts derived from △Np73 siRNA transfected SW620 cells in nude mice can inhibitor tumor growth significantly (t=15.32,P<0.05).Conclusion △Np73siRNAs can specifically repress the expression of △Np73.Thus it sensitizess the cells to 5-FU chemotherapy in colon cancer.

Objective: To establish a curve of dosage gradient-liver signal intensity of superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) in normal rats and to find an appropriate dose for enhancement. Methods: Seventy-two SD rats, 4 rats a group at random, underwent MR enhancement with 0, 2, 5, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 100, 140, 210, 280 μmol/kg SPIO respectively after plane examination. The signal-to-noise ratio of liver was measured and a curve of dosage gradient-liver signal intensity was made. Results: (1)With the increase of SPIO dose, the signal intensity of both T1 and T2 weighted images of liver declined. (2)T2 weighted images was more sensitive than T1 weighted images in small dose, the ED50 of T1 weighted was 8 μmol/kg, and the ED50 of T2 weighted was 5 μmol/kg. (3)When the dose was greater than 15 μmol/kg, the signal intensity of T1 weighted images declined more rapidly than T2 weighted, the effect of enhanced T1 weighted images resembled T2 weighted ones, and its images was with more fine resolution. (4)At the dose of 40 μmol/kg, the signal intensity of T1 weighted images approached the background noise, and at the dose of 15 μmol/kg, the signal intensity of T2 weighted images approached the background noise. Conclusion: Good effect of T1 and T2 enhanced MR imaging can be acquired at the dose of 20-10 μmol/kg SPIO respectively, the best contrast-to-noise ratio is found on T2 weighted enhanced MR image.

Objective To investigate the community psychiatric stigma among schizophrenic patients, to explore the related factors. Methods A total of 480 cases of schizophrenia patients were investigated using the method of Link series of stigma scale. Results A total of 480 questionnaires were issued, 436 valid questionnaires were recovered, and the effective recovery rate was 90.83%. These 436 cases of schizophrenia patients perceived devaluation discrimination subscale scores, confidentiality, separation, withdrawal, education scores of coping style, the score of two dimensions of emotional experience showed statistically significant difference with median score 2.50 of the scale respectively (t=-8.393-7.930, P<0.01). The scores were significantly different in age, marriage, medical treatment among patients perceived devaluation discrimination score and stigma coping scores and the stigma of the emotional experience (P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusions There was widespread stigma in community patients with schizophrenia, suggesting that mental health intervention should be taken for timely intervention.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the prevalence of isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) and the stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in chronic kidney disease outpatient clinic.Methods CKD patients of stages 1,2,3,4 and 5 were recruited (n=626).Based on office systolic pressure (SBP) and diastolic pressure (DBP),they were classified into four subtypes:normotension (＜ 140/90 mmHg),isolated diastolic hypertension (IDH,SBP ＜ 140 mmHg and DBP ≥ 90 mmHg),ISH (SBP≥ 140 mmHg and DBP ＜ 90 mmHg) and systolic-diastolic hypertension (SDH,SBP≥140 mmHg and DBP≥90 mmHg).Results The control rate of blood pressure was 86.4％,75.6％,65.3％,51.0％ and 37.0％ at CKD stage 1,2,3,4 and 5,respectively,which decreased with the advancement of CKD.There was a stepwise increase in the prevalence of ISH (0,9.2％,23.9％,28.6％ and 37.0％ at CKD stage 1,2,3,4 and 5,respectively) and SDH (4.5％,8.4％,8.0％,17.3％,21.9％ at CKD stage 1,2,3,4 and 5,respectively).Logistic regression analysis showed that age,diabetes and CKD stages were independent predictors of ISH.Compared with CKD stage 1-2,CKD stage 3,4 and 5 showed 2.388,2.697 and 5.980 folds risk in developing ISH.Conclusion The prevalence of ISH increases correspondingly with the advancement of stages of CKD,which may partially contribute to the increased cardiovascular mortality during the progress of CKD.
