Objective To understand the nurses' evaluation of current grading nursing system.Methods Self-questionnaire was designed and used to investigate 141 clinical nurses coming from three general hospitals sampled conveniently.Results (1)Clinical nurses lacked in-depth study of grading nursing instruction principle;(2)Doctors and nurses lacked the cooperation during the process of identifying the level of care;(3)Level of care was not consistent with the patients' condition and self-care ability;(4)Disease inspection and primary care were not consistent with patients' level of care;(5)Health guidance and mental nursing couldn't meet the actual needs of patients;(6)Senior nurses' evaluation of the implementation of grading nursing was lower than Junior nurses; (7)Clinical nurses held positive attitudes to nurses and patients participating in grading nursing.Conclusions Nurses thought poorly of grading nursing system in operation,it was necessary to improve the content of principles about grading nursing manner,health instruction and psychological nursing,and implement grading nursing system correctly.It was also important to take patients' willingness of participating in care into account.

Volume holographic imaging system (VHIS) incorporates a volume hologram grating (VHG) as the critical optical field processing component in a new imaging system.High spectral resolution and high sensitivity in obtaining 3D information at multi-depths are achieved without time consuming scanning mechanism and complex reconstruction algorithms by utilizing the Bragg diffraction selectivity and degeneracy properties.We briefly introduced the system structures and principles,then we presented intensively on how these VHGs were devised and VHIS were configured into the qualified spectral VHIS (S-VHIS) and multiplexed VHG imaging systems.The superiorities over conventional imaging systems and the features to be improved of VHIS were summarized and discussed.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the effectiveness and safety of intra-articular in-jection of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and hyaluronic acid (HA) in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis.Methods:The relevant literatures published in both English and Chinese were systematically searched in PubMed, Embase, Wanfang database, China Knowledge Network (CNKI), SinoMed database and other data-bases from inception to May 2020. Two researchers independently extracted data and evaluated the included literature. Risk assessment of literature bias was carried out. RevMan 5.3 software was used for Meta analysis, and the combined sensitivity were calculated.Results:Finally, 13 references were included, including a total of 726 patients with knee osteoarthritis. Meta-analysis results showed that compared with the HA group, the Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteopathic Index Total Score (WOMAC) [ MD=-10.92, 95% CI (-16.87, -4.96), P<0.01], the visual analogue scale (VAS) score [ MD=-1.70, 95% CI(-2.44, -0.95), P<0.01], and the knee joint Lequesne index score of MSCs group all decreased significantly [ MD=-13.78, 95% CI (-15.03,-12.52), P<0.01]. Furthermore, there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events (AEs) between the two groups [ RR=1.11, 95% CI(0.90, 1.37), P=0.33]. However, American Knee Association Score (AKS score) [ MD=-10.15, 95% CI(-22.33, 2.03), P=0.10] and whole-organ magnetic resonance imaging score (WORMS) [ MD=-3.93, 95% CI(-11.60, 3.75), P=0.32] were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with intra-articular injection of HA, intra-articular injection of MSCs can significantly improve the symptoms and dysfunction, and has favorable clinical tolerability and safety, suggesting that MSCs is expected to bea new treatment for knee osteoarthritis.

Objective To investigate the evaluation of plasma osteoprotegerin (OPG) measurement for assessing the prognosis of intermediate coronary lesions in elderly patients.Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients met the inclusion criteria of suspicious chest pain or confirmed coronary artery disease (CHD),and intermediate stenosis lesions (20 ％ ～ 70 ％) in 3 main coronary arteries served as target vessels for qualitative comparative analysis (QCA).Plasma OPG level was detected by protein array method,and the concentration of hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP)was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Clinical endpoints were followed up.Results A total of 890 patients with intermediate coronary stenosis were enrolled in this study,and were divided into＜60 years of age group(n＝370)and ≥ 60 years of age group(n＝520).There were statistical differences in age,smoking history,hypertension history,triglycerides (TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),white blood cell count,OPG,systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP),body mass index(BMI)between the two groups.The morphological indices in coronary lesions assessed by QCA had no differences between the two groups.During a median of 24 months of follow-up,58 patients(l1.2％)had clinical endpoints events.Age,smoking history,hypertension history,TC,TG,HDL-C,white blood cell count,levels of OPG above-median,hs-CRP,SBP,DBP,and BMI were used as the independent variables,and the clinical end events as the dependent variable.Forward stepwise logistic regression analysis showed that HDL-C,levels of OPG above-median,hs-CRP were the independent risk factors in elderly patients.The risk of cardiovascular events in patients with levels of OPG above-median was 2.510 fold higher than those with levels of OPG below-median.Conclusions The high levels of OPG and hs-CRP are the independent risk factors for the occurrence of coronary heart disease in the elderly with intermediate coronary lesions.

Objective:To investigate the function of gasdermin D (GSDMD) in intestinal damage of mice with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods:The healthy C57BL/6 mice were divided into four groups randomly, including normal saline (NS) group, small interfering RNA (siRNA)-NS group, SAP model group and siRNA-SAP group, with 6 mice in each group. The SAP mouse model was reproduced by intraperitoneal injection of caerulein 50 μg/kg combined with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 10 mg/kg; the NS group was given the same amount of NS; in the siRNA-SAP group and siRNA-NS group, siRNA 50 mg/kg was injected through the tail vein three times before modeling or injection of NS. The blood of mice eyeball in each group was taken 12 hours after modeling, and serum interleukins (IL-1β, IL-18) levels were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The mice were sacrificed to observe the general changes in abdominal cavity, the pancreas and ileum tissues were taken to observe the pathological changes under a light microscope. The expression of long-chain non-coding RNA uc.173 (lnc uc.173) was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of tight junction proteins zonula occluden-1 (ZO-1) and Occludin in intestinal mucosal epithelial cells. Western blotting was used to detect the GSDMD protein expression level in the intestinal tissue.Results:The serum levels of IL-1β and IL-18 in the SAP model group were significantly higher than those in the NS group and the siRNA-NS group [IL-1β (ng/L): 146.66±1.40 vs. 44.48±5.76, 81.49±10.75, IL-18 (ng/L): 950.47±177.09 vs. 115.43±16.40, 84.84±21.90, all P < 0.05]; and the levels of IL-1β and IL-18 in the siRNA-SAP group were significantly lower than those in the SAP model group [IL-1β (ng/L): 116.26±15.54 vs. 146.66±1.40, IL-18 (ng/L): 689.96±126.08 vs. 950.47±177.09, both P < 0.05]. General observation showed that there were no obvious abnormalities in the abdominal cavity of the mice in the NS and siRNA-NS groups; the mice in the SAP model group and the siRNA-SAP group had different degrees of edema and congestion in the intestine; compared with the SAP model group, the abnormalities in the siRNA-SAP group was significantly reduced. Under light microscope, there were no obvious changes in the pancreas and intestinal mucosa in the NS group and the siRNA-NS group; the pancreatic tissue of the SAP model group and the siRNA-SAP group had different degrees of edema, inflammatory cell infiltration, and lobular structure damage, and the intestinal mucosa was damaged to a certain degree, and the villi were broken to varying degrees, but the damage in the siRNA-SAP group was lighter. The results of RT-PCR showed that the expression of lnc uc.173 in the intestinal tissues of the model SAP group was significantly lower than that of the NS group and the siRNA-NS group (2 -ΔΔCt: 0.26±0.12 vs. 1.01±0.37, 0.67±0.32, both P < 0.05), while the expression of lnc uc.173 in the siRNA-SAP group was significantly higher than that in the SAP model group (2 -ΔΔCt: 0.60±0.39 vs. 0.26±0.12, P < 0.05). Immunohistochemistry showed that ZO-1 and Occludin proteins in the NS group were distributed along the epithelial cells of the intestinal mucosa, showing a strong expression; ZO-1 and Occludin expressions were significantly reduced in the SAP model group and siRNA-SAP group, but the expressions in the siRNA-SAP group was higher than that in the SAP model group. Western blotting showed that the expression level of GSDMD protein in the intestinal tissues of the SAP model group was significantly higher than that of the NS group and the siRNA-NS group [GSDMD protein (GSDMD-N/β-actin): 1.99±0.46 vs. 1, 1.00±0.78, both P < 0.05]. Compared with the SAP model group, the expression of GSDMD protein in the siRNA-SAP group was significantly decreased [GSDMD protein (GSDMD-N/β-actin): 1.42±0.42 vs. 1.99±0.46, P < 0.05]. Conclusions:The systemic inflammatory response and intestinal mucosal barrier damage of SAP mice may be related to the increase of GSDMD expression in intestinal tissues. GSDMD mediates cell pyrolysis to promote the release of inflammatory factors, cause intestinal injury, and down-regulate the expression of intestinal epithelial cell tight junction proteins such as ZO-1 and Occludin, resulting in intestinal mucosal damage.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value and toxicities of docetaxel plus capecitabine in the first-line treatment of metastatic breast cancer (MBC),and compare the outcomes among different molecular subtypes.Methods A total of 108 patients with MBC who received docetaxel plus capecitabine combination treatment between January 1,2012 and December 31,2015 in Bejing Chaoyang District Sanhuan Cancer Hospital were retrospectively analyzed,and 104 cases were available for evaluation.The clinicopathological characteristics,clinical value and toxicities of these patients were evaluated.Results The patients were divided into 3 molecular subtypes,among 104 patients,85 patients in Luminal subtype,14 patients in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) subtype,and 5 patients in human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) over expression subtype.The treatment achieved objective responses (OR) in 55 patients (52.9％),and the disease control rate (DCR) was 88.5％,including complete response (CR) in 4 patients,partial response (PR) in 51 patients,stable disease (SD) in 37 patients,and progressive disease (PD) in 12 patients.In Luminal subtype,4 patients achieved CR,43 PR,33 SD,and 5 PD.In TNBC subtype,6 patients achieved PR,3 SD,5 PD.In the HER-2 over expression subtype,2 patients achieved PR,1 SD,2 PD.There was no significant difference in the short-term therapeutic effect among 3 molecular subtypes (x2 =4.429,P =0.106).As a result,the progression-free survival (PFS) of the 104 patients was 1.5-121.0 months,and the median PFS was 10.0 months.The median PFS was 11.0 months in Luminal subtype,4.0 months in TNBC subtype and 10.3 months in HER-2 over expression subtype,with a significant difference (x2 =7.510,P =0.006).The most common adverse events were hand-foot syndrome (HFS),nausea or vomiting,neutropenia,anaemia,diarrhea and so on.The incidence of grade 2/3 HFS was 44.2％ (46/104),and the grade 3/4 neutropenia was 39.4％ (41/104).Conclusion The first-line treatment of MBC using docetaxel plus capecitabine is effective,and the toxicities can be tolerable,especially in the Luminal subtype.
