Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2016;32(26):2030-2032
Objective To explore the related high risk factors of hyponatremia after transsphenoidal approach for pituitary adenomectomy and to direct postoperative nursing. Methods The clinical data of seventy-seven patients suffering from pituitary adenomas with the way of treatment by transsphenoidal pituitary adenomectomy from June 2014 to May 2015 were summarized retrospectively. According to the value of postoperative serum natremia, the data were divided into hyponatremia group and non-hyponatremia group. The different data between the 2 groups were compared and the high risk factors related to hyponatremia were analyzed. Results Univariate analysis showed that gender(P=0.254) and high blood pressure(P=0.742) were unrelated to postoperative hyponatremia and there was significant difference between two groups in age (P=0.038), max- diameter of tumors(P=0.004), preoperative pituitary dysfunction (P=0.013), visual deficit (P=0.000), operative procedure duration (P=0.008) and diabetes mellitus rate (P=0.023). While Logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative visual deficit (OR=0.152,P=0.004,95%CI 0.043-0.542) and preoperative pituitary dysfunction (OR=0.069, P=0.046,95%CI 0.005-0.950) were independent factors for postoperative hyponatremia. Conclusions Hyponatremia is a common complication after transsphenoidal pituitary adenomectomy. The optimal treatment can benefit the early recovery and more careful nursing should be focused on these patients who are in high risk of postoperative hyponatremia.
2.Changes in memory function of rats with brain injury after fingolimod administration combined with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell transplantation
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2014;(28):4469-4473
BACKGROUND:The repair effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation on brain injury were not ideal. Combined therapy with medicine and biological engineering materials is needed. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation and fingolimod immunosuppressants on memory function recovery in rats with brain injury. METHODS:A total of 60 healthy Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to hydraulic shock with peak value of 253.312 5-303.975 kPa with a hydraulic head injury instrument so as to induce a model of severe hydraulic head injury. They were randomly divided into brain injury group, bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation group and fingolimod+bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation group. The Morris water maze test was tested at 21-28 days after PKH-26-labeled bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation. The PKH-26 immunofluorescence and hematoxylin-eosin staining were conducted in brain tissues at 4 weeks after brain injury. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 4 weeks after transplantation, the average escape latency was gradual y decreased in each group. The average escape latency was shorter in the fingolimod+bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation group than in the bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation group (P<0.05), and significantly shorter than in the brain injury group (P<0.01). The number of times of crossing the platform and the percentage of swimming distance to total distance were higher in the fingolimod+bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation group than in the brain injury group and bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation group (P<0.05). The number of PKH-26-positive cells was significantly higher in the fingolimod+bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation group than in the brain injury group and bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation group (P<0.05). Results confirmed that bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation could apparently improve memory function of rats with severe brain injury. The combined application of fingolimod immunosuppressants has synergistic effects.
3.Clinical value and prospect of extracellular vesicle miRNAs as novel liquid biopsy molecular biomarkers of tumor
Chinese Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2021;44(3):250-254
Extracellular vesicles (EV) miRNAs are a class of small non-coding RNAs that are encapsulated in membrane-containing vesicles from a variety of cells, and which can mediate intercellular communication and transfer of functional molecules. EV miRNAs in circulation can be served as novel molecular markers for cancer diagnosis, monitoring and prognosis, and also the most promising liquid biomarkers for clinical translation and utility currently, while optimal research strategy is crucial for identifying valuable EV miRNAs in clinical study. Moreover, EV miRNAs have recently also been implicated in cancer progression as direct regulators of metabolic reprogramming, mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition, angiogenesis, anti-cancer immune response and drug resistance in the tumor microenvironment. Study on some key EV miRNAs involving in those processes may highlight their potential utility as liquid biopsies in early diagnosis, companion diagnosis, metastasis, therapeutic control, prognosis analysis as their therapeutic potential for patients with cancer.
5.Function and significance of integrin-linked kinase in heart
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 2009;25(12):2483-2486
Integrin-linked kinase (ILK) is a widely expressed protein kinase that relate to cellular growth and differentiation. It is most abundant in the heart. Recently, many researches revealed that ILK is highly relevant to cardiac response to biomechanical stresses. Also, ILK plays important roles in regulation of the occurrence and development of cardiac hypertrophy, dilated cardiomyopathy, viral myocarditis and myocardial senescence via correlation to several classical signal transduction pathway. Meanwhile, ILK functions in protection after myocardial infarction. This article will try to summarize the effects and relevant mechanism of ILK in above-mentioned aspects, overall reveals the roles of ILK in heart and its potential clinical significance.

Chinese Journal of Nosocomiology 2006;0(02):-
OBJECTIVE To investigate the pathogens and their drug-resistance in Fuwai Cardiovascular Hospital and provide antibiotics use suggestion for clinical treatment.METHODS The pathogens were identified by VITED 32 and analyzed by WHONET 5.4 RESULTS The pathogens mainly consisted of Gram-negative bacilli,which were highly sensitive to imipenem and meropenem except Pseudomonas aeruginosa;E.faecalis was much more sensitive to penicillin and gentamicin than E.faecium.Most coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(CNS) were resistant to oxacillin and showed low susceptibility rates to most antibiotics.No Gram-positive cooci were found to be resistant to vancomycin and teicoplanin.CONCLUSIONS To investigate the pathogens and their drug resistance is very important to prevent and control nosocomical infections.

Chinese Journal of Trauma 2003;0(10):-
Objective To observe the effect of hyperglycemia on intracranial pressure (ICP) and neurological outcome following severe brain injury. Methods A retrospective review was done on 79 cases with severe traumatic brain injury (with no history of diabetes or important extracranial complications) who underwent craniotomy for evacuation of intracranial hematoma and were divided into two groups based on Glasgow outcome scales (GOS) score, ie, favorable group with GOS of 5 or 4 and unfavorable group with GOS less than 3. Statistical analysis of data was accomplished by using SPSS 11.5 software. The outcome was assessed at the 6th month after injury. Results A significant correlation was found between ICP levels and admission or postoperative glucose values. The unfavorable group had significantly higher glucose levels both on admission and after operation compared with the favorable group, with statistical difference (P

Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2012;47(3):339-45
Biofilms are communities of surface-associated bacteria or fungi embedded in a self-produced extracellular polymeric matrix that are notoriously difficult to be eradicated and are sources of many recalcitrant infections. Treatment for biofilm infection with any individual drug is always less effective, while the combinations of different types of drugs are superior to monotherapy concerning the removing of biofilms. This paper focus on research progress in recent years for synergistic effect of drugs in combination against biofilms formed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli and Candida albicans.
