Objective To study the radiation injury of rat C6 glioma cell line by high resolution,1 H-nuclear magnetic resonance (1 H NMR) spectroscopy,and to preliminarily investigate its mechanism.Methods Metabolite concentrations in C6 cells were determined by 1 H NMR spectroscopy.Comet assay was used to evaluate DNA damage.Flow cytometry was used to determine the cell cycle and apoptosis rate.Colony-forming assay was used to measure the colony-forming rate and preliminarily investigate the mechanism of radiation injury.The resuhs were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance and Pearson correlation analysis.Results With the increase in radiation dose from 0 Gy to 1,5,10,and 15 Gy,DNA damage was enhanced in a dose-dependent manner (P=0.000-0.690);the percentage of cells in G1 phase increased (P =0.026-0.749);the apoptosis rate significantly increased (all P =0.000);the colony-forming rate significantly declined (P =0.000-0.004);the Lac/Cr ratio significantly decreased (P =0.000-0.015),which had a negative linear correlation with DNA damage parameters (tail length,r=-0.971;％DNA in the tail,r =-0.998;tail moment,r =-0.995) and apoptosis rate (r =0.978).Conclusions 1 H NMR spectroscopy reveals that the change in the Lac/Cr ratio is associated with injury and apoptosis of C6 cells after radiation.1 H NMR spectroscopy has the potential to predict radiation injury of glioma.

Objective To investigate and analyse the status and influential factors of palliative care knowledge of nursing undergraduates,then provide theoretical basis for palliative care education. Methods Using random sampling method, 400 nursing undergraduates were investigated by Palliative Care Quiz for Nursing (PCQN) and palliative care attitude questionnaire. Results 366 nursing undergraduates completed the survey whose scores were 8.363 ± 4.240, and 66.9%(244/366) of them had never heard of palliative care. Choosed right rate of PCQN was 41.13% (150/366). The scores of palliative care philosophy and principles 0.298±0.248, pain and symptom control and psychological scores 0.436 ± 0.235 and social and spiritual support scores 0.499 ± 0.318 had significant difference (F=38.866, P=0.000). The scores of palliative care attitude questionnaire were 36.756 ± 3.183, and the average score of all items were over 3. The palliative care attitude scores had significant difference in different grade (F=2.737, P=0.043). Conclusions Nursing undergraduates hold positive attitudes of palliative care, but the cognition degree were at a low level. To promote the development of palliative care, it should be strengthened publicity, education and training in this area. It is necessary to carry out palliative care education in nursing undergraduate students.

Objective To explore relationship of the anesthetic risks and intraoperative complications.Methods Preoperative anesthetic risks were assessed with Hussman's method from May 2015 to May 2016 in 2 494 surgical patients, including 1 462 males and 1 032 females.Intraoperative data and complications were tracked and recorded.Results Three hundred and thirty-six intraoperative complications occurred, accounting for 13.47% of total patients.The cardiovascular complications were a major intraoperative complications, accounting for 80.7%.2 494 patients were graded respectively into risk grade 1 with 1 540 (61.75%), grade 2 with 660 (26.46%), grade 3 with 202 (8.10%), grade 4 with 80 (3.21%) and grade 5 with 12 (0.48%).The incidence of complications were 112 (7.28%), 82 (12.42%), 82 (40.59%), 50 (62.50%) and 10 (83.33%) respectively.The sensitivity of prediction was 33.33%, 24.40%, 24.40%, 14.88% and 2.78%;the specificity 33.76%, 73.26%, 94.44%, 98.61% and 99.91%;and the accuracy 33.76%, 66.64%, 85.01%, 87.33% and 86.85%, respectively, in patients with risk grade 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.Conclusion Hussman's method of anesthetic risks well predicts the intraoperative complications.

Objective To investigate the constitutive characteristics and the change trend of gynecologic malignant tumors in hospitalized patients in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region over the recent 20 years.Methods Clinical data of 8009 in-patients who suffered from gynecologic malignant tumors in 23 hospitals from 1985 to 2004 in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region were analyzed,with respect to the tumor types and change trend.Results(1)The leading 4 types of malignant tumors were cervical cancers, ovarian cancers,endometrial cancers,and malignant trophoblastic tumors according to the constitutive ratios of the tumors.The constitutive ratio of cervical cancer patients rose year by year,from 17.48% during the 1985-1989 period to 49.25% during the 2000-2004 period(P0.05).(2)The occurring age of cervical cancers became younger obviously,from≥60 years old dropped to

The mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF) has been recently identified as a neurotrophic factor, but its role in hepatic fibrosis is unknown. Here, we found that MANF was upregulated in the fibrotic liver tissues of the patients with chronic liver diseases and of mice treated with CCl₄. MANF deficiency in either hepatocytes or hepatic mono-macrophages, particularly in hepatic mono-macrophages, clearly exacerbated hepatic fibrosis. Myeloid-specific MANF knockout increased the population of hepatic Ly6C^high macrophages and promoted HSCs activation. Furthermore, MANF-sufficient macrophages (from WT mice) transfusion ameliorated CCl₄-induced hepatic fibrosis in myeloid cells-specific MANF knockout (MKO) mice. Mechanistically, MANF interacted with S100A8 to competitively block S100A8/A9 heterodimer formation and inhibited S100A8/A9-mediated TLR4-NF-κB signal activation. Pharmacologically, systemic administration of recombinant human MANF significantly alleviated CCl₄-induced hepatic fibrosis in both WT and hepatocytes-specific MANF knockout (HKO) mice. This study reveals a mechanism by which MANF targets S100A8/A9-TLR4 as a "brake" on the upstream of NF-κB pathway, which exerts an impact on macrophage differentiation and shed light on hepatic fibrosis treatment.
