Objective:This study aimed to develop a Chinese version of Quality of life in Epilepsy Inventory(QOLIE-89) and to confirm its psychometric properties.Methods:The original English version QOLIE-89 was adapted to Chinese language through a translation back-translation procedure. The assessment included 204 patients with epilepsy .The test-retest and internal consistency reliabilities, criterion validity and discriminative validity were assessed.Results:The test-retest reliability (Pearson's correlation coefficient) for Chinese version QOLIE-89 was 0.63-0.95 and internal consistency reliability (Cronbach's alpha) was 0.76-0.92. The confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the Chinese version of QOLIE-89 was composed of three dimensions(CMIN/DF=2.17,GFI=0.98, AGFI=0.90, CFI=0.98,RMSEA=0.061), which were physiology, psychology and social function that including 17 factors obtained by exploration analysis ,which can explained 71.91% of total variance. Spearman's rank correlations between Chinese version QOLIE-89 total score and QOLIE-31 total score was 0.96 and domain scores were from 0.86-1.00.QOLIE-89 items could be discriminated well between patients according to epileptic seizures severity and antiepileptic drug side effects.Conclusion:The psychometric properties of the Chinese version QOLIE-89 inventory are fairly good and similar to the American version and can be applied to assess quality of life for adult patients with epilepsy in China.

Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is a serious threat to health of the elderly,and endothelial progenitor cells therapy-induced therapeutic angiogenesis can improve vascular reperfusion and functional recovery in ischemic myocardium.Endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) therapy plays an important role in endothelial repair and postnatal angiogenesis.And the concept of EPC therapy has received attention.EPC population is decreased in numbers and in functional activity,which are correlated with age and cardiovascular risk factor.And patients with these backgrounds have less therapeutic benefit.In this review,we will focus on overview of the latest research progressions of characteristic of EPC in the elderly with IHD,and on current studies of EPC-based angiogenesis therapies for providing theoretical basis in the promising clinical treatment.

Objective To build clinical nursing pathway for artificial abortion operation and explore the effect of this method. Methods The nursing pathway was designed and carried out. The satisfaction degree with nursing, status of patients' awareness about contraception and artificial abortion operation was compared before and after the nursing pathway was implemented. Results Before and after the nursing pathway was implemented,the proportion of missing item of operation record was 0.636 and 0.013, the satisfaction degree with nursing was 77.0% and 92.3%, rate of patients' awareness about contraception and artificial abortion operation was 47.6% and 96.1%. Conclusions The clinical nursing pathway for artificial abortion operation may improve the degree of satisfaction- and the status of patients' awareness about contraception and artificial abortion operation, and decline the proportion of missing item of operation note, it ensures high nursing quality and safety surgery, which is worthy of popularizing.

Tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) is a herb used widely in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as an antianginal drug. The exact mechanism whereby TMP treat ischemic heart disease is still not fully understood. The purpose of this study is to examine the anti-inflammatory effect of TMP in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Methods Thirty-two patients with acute myocardial infarction or unstable angina were randomly assigned to TMP group or control group. All patients received the same standard treatment. Patients in TMP group received TMP 3mg/kg every 12 hours for 5 days. Plasma concentrations of high-sensitivity Creactive protein (CRP), serum amyloid A (SAA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) were measured at baseline and after 5 days of therapy. Results Both CRP and SAA concentrations increased significantly in control group (P<0.05) whilst in TMP group, only SAA had a significant increase (P<0.05); the absolute increase of CRP, SAA, and PAI-1 were significantly less in TMP group than in control group (P<0.05). Conclusion TMP has an anti-inflammatory and profibrinolytic effect in patients with ACS. These effects may contribute to the clinical benefits of TMP in ischemic heart disease.

Objective To study the gene expressions of nestin and stem cell factor(SCF)in neurons after ischemia-reperfusion injury in rat brain. Methods Thirty-six adult female rats were subject to left middle cerebral artery occlusion for 1.5h and different hours of reperfusion. In site hybridization was used to examine the expression of nestin and SCF mRNA in the rats subjected to 2h, 6h, 12h, 24h, 2d, 3d, 7d, 14d of reperfusion and sham-operation group (n=4). Results (1) Nestin expression in cortex, striatum and extraventricular zone was weak in the sham-operation group, and increased markedly in the ischemic hemisphere compared with sham-operation group except of reperfusion 2h in cortex, 2h, 6h in striatum, 2h, 6h and 14d in extraventricular zone. (2)SCF expression in cortex, striatum and extraventricular zone was weak in the sham-operation group, and increased markedly in the ischemic hemisphere compared with sham-operation group except of reperfusion 2h, 6h, 12h in cortex, 2h, 6h in striatum, 2h and 14d in extraventricular zone. Conclusion It is suggested that SCF expression might enhance the proliferation of neural stem cells following ischemia-reperfusion in rats.

AIM:To investigate isometric force displacement in isolated rat main pulmonary artery rings and right main branch pulmonary artery(second pulmonary artery)rings during hypoxia hypercapnia and the role of mitogen activated protein kinase(MAPK).METHODS:The main pulmonary artery rings were dissected from the male Sprague-Dawley rats and were randomly divided into control group and hypoxia hypercapnia group.The second pulmonary artery rings were also randomly divided into control group,hypoxia hypercapnia group,DMSO incubation group,U0126 incubation group and SB203580 incubation group.The tension changes of pulmonary artery rings were monitored in vitro.RESULTS:Under normoxia conditions,there was no statistically significant change between main pulmonary artery rings and second pulmonary artery rings.A biphasic pulmonary artery contractile response to hypoxia hypercapnia in the second pulmonary artery rings was observed instead of a sharp and transient increase in the main pulmonary artery tension.Both p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580 and ERK1/2 inhibitor U0126 significantly attenuated the delayed,but not early,contractile phase of the biphasic pulmonary artery contraction.CONCLUSION:Acute hypoxia hypercapnia causes a biphasic pulmonary artery contractile response in the second pulmonary artery,and p38 MAPK and ERK1/2 may be two key mediators in the process.

Objective To observe NLS-KALA-SA-PTX (NKSP) for lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 in vitro with paclitaxel monotherapy, and the mechanism thereof. Methods MTT assay was used to detect A549 cell proliferation influ-enced by different concentrations of NKSP (20, 40, 80, 100μg/L) and paclitaxel monotherapy (20, 40, 80, 100μg/L) for 24 h, 48 h and 72 h.. Subsequent experiments were divided into four groups, namely, group A (without any drug treatment), group B (added polypeptide 80μg/L of self-assembled nanoparticles, NKS), group C (80μg/L paclitaxel monotherapy) and group D (80μg/L NKSP). Flow cytometry was used to detect the cell apoptotic rates after 48 h and 72 h treatment in four groups. Western blot assay was used to analyse the protein expressions of bax and caspase-3 after 48 h and 72 h treatment in four groups. Results Both paclitaxel monotherapy and NKSP can inhibit the proliferation of A549 cells. The inhibitory rates of paclitaxel monotherapy group at 48 h and 72 h and NKSP group at 72 h showed an increasing trend in a dose-depen-dent manner (P<0.05). After treatment for 48 hours, the apoptotic rate was significantly higher in D group than that of C group (P<0.05). But the apoptotic rate at 72 h was lower in D group than that of C group (P<0.05). The protein expressions of bax and caspase-3 at 48 h were significantl lower in D group than those of C group, which were higher at 72 h in D group than those of C group (P<0.05). Conclusion Compared to paclitaxel monotherapy group, NKS promotes slow release of pa-clitaxol, which reduces the cytotoxicity and extends the antitumor effects.
