Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2016;32(34):2644-2647
Objective To investigate the application effect of quality control management in the prevention of indwelling catheter associated urinary tract infection in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Methods Cases of patients stayed in the department of ICU undergoing indwelling catheter over 10 d were selected by using time stage sampling method. Totally 136 cases of patients were selected from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012, as the control group. A total of 145 cases of patients were selected from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2013, as the performance group. Cases in performance group were taken standardized training and quantify the performance appraisal on the basis of measures in the control group. The urine routine was tested and bacterial was cultured at indwelling catheter 3 d, 7 d and 10 d, respectively. The indwelling catheter associated urinary tract infections of the two groups were compared. Results After the implementation of the performance appraisal management, the incidences of indwelling catheter associated urinary tract infection at 3 d, 7 d and 10 d were 4.8%(7/145), 19.3% (28/145) and 32.4% (47/145), respectively. Within each quarter, the incidence of indwelling catheter associated urinary tract infection was rising with indwelling catheter time prolonged. And the incidences of the first and second quarter were higher than three and four quarter. The incidences of indwelling catheter associated urinary tract infections at 3 d, 7 d and 10 d in the performance group were lower than the control group, the differences were statistically significant (χ2=4.494, 30.660 and 49.307, P < 0.05). Conclusions Standardized training of nursing staff in ICU and implementation of performance appraisal management could effectively improve the enthusiasm and sense of responsibility of the nurses, and effectively reduce the incidence of indwelling catheter associated urinary tract infection.

Hepatic tumor-specific magnetic resonance (MR) enhancement with Gd-EOB-DTPA can detect and distinguish small hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with greater sensitivity than conventional magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography.Hepatic tumor-specific MR enhancement with Gd-EOB-DTPA is more sensitive in detecting focal HCC,and more reliable in detecting lesions with a diameter smaller than 2cm.Gd-EOB-DTPA is excreted through the kidneys and biliary tract,and thus may provide more information about anatomic structures,demonstrate non-obstruction of the intra- and extrahepatic bile duct system,and provide information about hepatic function.

Objective To explore the changes in β-catenin expression and their significance in ultraviolet ray (UV)-induced development of skin tumor in mice.Methods The back of 60 mice was irradiated for various durations to establish tumor models.Ten mice receiving no irradiation served as the control.Fifteen mice were sacrificed respectively on week 2,4,6 and 8 after the beginning of irradiation and skin tissue specimens were resected from the back of these mice.Hematoxylin and eosin staining was conducted to observe the histopathological changes of skin,and immunohistochemistry and real time fluorescence PCR were carried out to detect the expression of β-catenin.Results Along with the UV irradiation,the exposed skin experienced a series of histological changes.The β-catenin expression was located in cell membrane in unirradiated mice and those irradiated for 2 weeks.There was an attenuation in the expression of β-catenin in cell membrane but an increment in the ectopic expression of β-catenin in 7,9 and 9 of the 15 mice receiving 4-,6- and 8-week irradiation respectively.Compared with the control mice,a significant increase was observed in the ectopic expression rate of β-catenin in mice receiving 4,6 and 8 weeks of irradiation (all P < 0.045).The relative expression level of β-catenin mRNA was 4.893,7.857,10.452,12.481 and 14.702 in unirradiated mice,mice receiving 2,4,6 and 8 weeks of irradiation,respectively,with statistical differences between the 5 groups (all P < 0.05).Conclusions There is an ectopic nuclear expression of β-catenin in cells of UV-irradiated mouse skin,which may be involved in the initiation and progression of skin tumors.

Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the determination of EDTA-2Na in amphotericin B. Methods: A Waters C18 column(50 mm × 4. 6mm, 5 μm) was used. The mobile phase A was acetic acid solution (1. 5 ml acetic acid was added into 1000ml water, and 41 ml 10% tetrabutylammonium hydroxide solution was added), and the mobile B was acetonitrile with gradient e-lution. The flow rate was 0. 8 ml·min-1 , the column temperature was 30℃, the detection wavelength was 260 nm and the injection volume was 25μl. Results:The results showed that EDTA-2Na in amphotericin B could be detected without any interference. The cal-ibration curve of EDTA-2Na was linear within the range of 0. 92-7. 37μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 9), the LOD was 1. 93 ng·ml-1 and the LOQ was 6. 45 ng·ml-1. The average recovery was 102. 5% (RSD=2. 8%, n=9). Conclusion: The method is simple, selective and accurate. It can be used for the quality control of EDTA-2Na in amphotericin B.

Aromatase inhibitors(AIs) are standard therpy for postmenopausal women with estrogen responsive breast cancers.By inhibiting the aromatase enzyme,causing decreases in endogenous estrogens,the treatment of Als is responsible for lower bone mineral density(BMD) and increased fractures.Therefore,early recognition, prevention,and/or treatment of AI-induced bone loss is needed.Zoledronic acid is specific inhibitors of osteoclasts and extensively used in bone metastasis patients.Recently, there are several trials evaluating the use of in- travenous zoledronic acid as prevention and treatment of AI-induced bone loss in postmenopausal women with breast cancer.In this article, we aim to review the use of zoledronic acid in this population including the response and safety.

Interleukin 18 (IL 18) is emerging as a powerful, pleiotropic cytokine involved in determining the polarization of T cell responses. To identify the effect of IL 18 on hepatitis B virus, mouse IL 18 gene was transferred and expressed in 2.2.15 cells. Meanwhile, the inhibition of HBsAg, HBeAg and HBV DNA was investigated. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT PCR) was used to amplify the mouse IL 18 from spleen cell of Balb/c mouse challenged with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and phytahematoagglutinin (PHA), and reconstruct plasmid pLXSN IL18 with the retroviral vector pLXSN. Both pLXSN IL18 and pLXSN were transfected into PA317 cells and then 2.2.15 cells were infected by using the supernatant containing pseudovirus released by PA317. HBsAg and HBeAg were detected by ELISA and the HBV DNA was determined by quantitative PCR. The 580bp of mIL 18 was cloned into retroviral vector pLXSN. The pseudovirus contained in the supernatant of transfected PA317 cells was identified by RT PCR. When the pseudovirus was infected into 2.2.15 cells and incubated for 3, 5, 7, 14 days, the P/N value of HBsAg and HBeAg decreased gradually and became negative on day 14. The copies of HBV DNA reduced markedly. The results indicate that mIL 18 gene expressed in 2.2.15 cells can significantly inhibit the replication expression of HBV and may be used as a potential agent for gene therapy against HBV infection.

Medical Journal of Chinese People's Liberation Army 1982;0(01):-
Protein protein binding is the basis of virus and host cell interactions. With the application of technology of studying of protein interactions, more knowledge of replication and pathogenesis of hepatitis C virus (HCV) could be acquired. Non structure protein NS5A is one of the important regulatory factors in virus replication , transcription and signal transduction, but there are controversy in effect on HCV pathogenesis and resistance to interferon ?(IFN?). In order to describe the relationship between NS5A and host proteins, we use yeast two hybrid system 3 to screen the gene encoding proteins that could interact with NS5A from human hepatocyte library. Thirty five clones were obtained including apo A1, apo A2, apo B100, haplotype mitochondrion complete genome, phosphatidic acid phosphatase type 2B, albumin similar to tumor endothelial marker 5 precursor, matrix metalloproteinase 14, and three of the Homo sapiens hypothetical proteins. The study paved a way for further studies on the pathogenesis of HCV NS5A
