Objective: To study the roles of nuclear factor (NF-kB) and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) in cerebral ischemic preconditioning induced brain ischemic tolerance. Methods: A total of 100 clean rats were randomly allocated into 4 groups: control, ischemic, preconditioning, and ischemic preconditioning groups. Both focal and ischemic preconditioning models were induced. The neuroethological score, infarct volume ratio and expression of NF-kB and ICAM-1 in the ischemic region at the corresponding time points were observed. Results: Circled digit one The neurological deficit score in the ischemic group was higher than that in the ischemic preconditioning group. The cerebral infarction volume ratio was higher than that in the ischemic preconditioning group (28.6 ± 3.2% vs. 16.2 ± 3.8%, t = 2.668 [P < 0.05]), and there were significant differences (P < 0.05). Circled digit two The number of NF-KB positive cells in the ischemic preconditioning group were lower than those in the ischemic group at the same time points, but they were higher than those in the preconditioning group, and there were significant differences (P < 0.05). The peak time of the number of NF-KB positive cells in the ischemic preconditioning group was delayed for 48 hours. Circled digit three The numbers of ICAM-1 positive cells in the ischemic preconditioning group were less than those in the ischemic group at the same time points, but they were higher than those in the preconditioning group, and there were significant differences (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Ischemic preconditioning decreases the expression of NF-KB and ICAM-1 after ischemia. The inhibition of inflammatory reaction may be one of the mechanisms of the ischemic tolerance induced by ischemic preconditioning.

Objective To explore the effect of TLR2 on collagen Ⅰ(colⅠ) in adipose tissue of high-fat-diet induced obese mice.Methods Male C57bl/6J mice and TLR2 knockout mice were divided into groups according to high fat diet or normal chow.Total collagen, TLR2, colⅠ, MMP1, MMP2, TIMP1, colⅠα1 mRNA and colⅠα2 mRNA in adipose tissue were measured at the end of the experiments.Results Total collagen, TLR2, colⅠ, MMP2, TIMP1, colⅠα1 mRNA, and colⅠα2 mRNA in adipose tissue increased while MMP1 in adipose tissue decreased in mice with high fat diet.Decreased levels of total collagen, colⅠ, MMP2, TIMP1, colⅠα1 mRNA and colⅠα2 mRNA in adipose tissue were detected in TLR2 gene knockout mice with high fat diet.However, there was an increased level of MMP1 in TLR2 gene knockout mice with high fat diet.Conclusion In high-fat-diet induced obese mice, deposition of colⅠ in adipose tissue seems to be alleviated by TLR2 gene knockout via MMP1 and TIMP1.

Eighty cases of intrauterine adhesions who received adhesion separation technique were divided into two groups equally. The control group was placed intrauterine device and ballon catheter in intrauterine,and received o-ral female estrogen cycle treatment. The test group with the same treatment was added growth hormone treatment. Three months later,all of the patients were checked the hysteroscopy and intrauterine device was took out, also the uterine cavity form,and follow-up recovery of endometrial and menses were evaluated. Then it showed:①Endome-trial thickness increased by an average of (1.73±0.83) mm in the test group,while the control group average in-creased by (1.10±0.66) mm. The difference was statistically significant (t=3.73,P<0.01).② The re-adhe-sion rate was 45.0% in the control group,while it was 32.5% in the test group,respectively. The difference was not statistically significant. ③ The difference of mensual recovery between both groups was not statistical significant. Therefore growth hormone can promote the growth of endometrium of intrauterine adhesions after resection of adhe-sions.

Objective To investigate the status of undergraduate nursing faculty's structural empowerment and job satisfaction and to analyze the correlation between themn.Methods Totally 246 nursing teachers were investigated with Conditions for Work Effectiveness Questionnaire Ⅱ and Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire.The correlation between structural empowerment and job satisfaction were analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.Results Undergraduate nursing faculty's total score was (3.04±0.57) points,and score of job satisfaction was (2.93±0.59) points,both of which were at moderate level.Structural empowerment was positively correlated with job satisfaction (r=0.450-0.714,P＜0.01),the higher structural empowerment level,the higher job satisfaction.Conclusions Undergraduate nursing managers can improve nursing teachers' job satisfaction by strengthening the empowerment to nursing teachers,in order to enhance the teaching quality.

Objective: To study the relationship between mental health and achievement motivation of teachers.Methods: 322 high school teachers completed SCL-90 and Achievement Motivation Scale.Results: The percent of high-score teachers with at least one SCL-90 subscale scored more than 3 is more than 5%.There is obvious correlation between the score of SCL-90 and the AMS's.Conclusion: The high level of achievement-seeking or the high level of failure-avoiding is harmful to the mental health of teachers.

Calcification is a major cause of clinical failure of bioprosthetic and other tissue cardiac valve substitutes.The mechanism of calcification of cardiac valve substitutes is quite complex and has a variety of determinants,involving reaction of calcium-containing extracellular fluid with membrane-associated phosphorus to yield calcium phosphate mineral deposits.The most promising anticalcification strategies have included binding of calcification inhibitors to glutaraldehyde fixed tissue,removal or modification of calcifiable components,modification of glutaraldehyde fixation and use of tissue cross linking agents other than glutaraldehyde.This article reviews current progress toward the research of calcification and anticalcification strategies that are under investigation either in advanced animal models or in clinical trials.
