OBJECTIVE:
To explore the expression of interleukin-25 (IL-25) in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) and its potential significance in pathogenesis.
METHOD:
IL-25 expression in blood was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). IL-25 expression in tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry (LSAB method) from polyps (68 CRSwNP patients) and 55 inferior turbinate mucosa from patients with deviation of nasal septum served as control. Complete blood count and HE staining of blood and tissue eosinophil infiltration degree.
RESULT:
IL-25 expression in CRSwNP group were significantly higher than the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.01). IL-25 expression in local organizations was positively correlated with the number of eosinophil infiltration in CRSwNP group (r = 0.679, P < 0.01).
CONCLUSION
The expression of IL-25 in CRSwNP patients mutually reinforcing and might increase eosinophil infiltration and play an important role in the development of CRSwNP.

Objective To investigate the cognition and care needs of the patients with acute stage fracture thus providing reference for the construction of intermediate care model. Methods The data of 504 patients with acute stage fracture from December 2014 to April 2015 were investigated through questionnaire, and analyzed. The issues included gender, age, marital status, cultural level, degree of understanding of intermediate care, care needs, etc. Results 63.29%(319/504) of the patients didn′t know intermediate care before they filled in the questionnaire,only 3.97%(20/504) of the patients understood the conception of intermediate care; different stage of age had different cognition towards intermediate care, the differences were statistically significant( χ2=148.771, P<0.01); different stage of age, sex, marital status, cultural level had different care needs, the differences were statistically significant (H/u=9.692-129.097, P<0.05). Conclusions At present, the majority of patients have no conception about intermediate care, so it is necessary to build the model of intermediate care. As nursing staff we should provide different help according to different type people, thus we can promote patients' physical and mental health, improve patient satisfaction to the greatest extent.

Objective The anti-amyloidogenic effects of Curcumin had been clearly certified, Whether the anti-amyliodogenic effects were mediated through the modulation of BACE1 activity was addressed. Methods SwAPP-HEK293 cells were incubated for 24h without or with 5μM curcumin mix, Cur, DMC and BDMC respectively, then the cells were collected for the cell viability evaluation by using MTT analysis and for the BACE1 activity evaluation by theβ-Secretase Activity Fluorometric Assay Kit. Results The cell viability of swAPPHEK293 cells was unchanged after cur-cuminoids incubation; All of Curcumin mix, Cur, DMC and BDMC could decreased the BACE1 activity, Cur was the most active in suppressing BACE1 activity, and the inhibition strength of others in order was DMC>COM>BDMC. Con-clusion This paper indicate that the anti-amyloidogenic effects of curcumin mix,Cur ,DMC,BDMC may be through the in-hibition of BACE1 activity.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the molecular mechanisms of Shengqing Capsules in treating cholelithiasis. METHODS: Sixty female guinea pigs were randomized into 3 groups: group I (fed with normal diet), group II (fed with low-protein diet) and group III (fed with low-protein diet and Shengqing Capsules). After six-week feeding, the gallstone formation and the expressions of bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (B-UGT) mRNA and cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7A1) mRNA were observed. RESULTS: The proportions of stone-formed in groups I, II and III were 2/14, 9/12 and 4/14, respectively. There were significant differences among the three groups (P<0.05). The expressions of B-UGT and CYP7A1 mRNAs were higher in both group I and group III as compared with those in the group II (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Shengqing Capsules can reduce the rate of stone-formation, which may be due to its interference of metabolism of bilirubin and cholesterol and up-regulation of the expressions of B-UGT and CYP7A1 mRNAs.

Objective To analyze the occurrence features of the active surveillance of adverse events following immu?nization (AEFI) in Tianjin, and evaluate the sensitivity of passive surveillance systems over the same period. Methods The layered eight vaccination clinics of four counties were selected as active surveillance points. The data of active surveillance AEFI were collected through telephone investigation in 2011-2013. The data of passive surveillance was collected through the national AEFI information management system. The descriptive methodology and chi square test were used. Results A total of 235 cases were collected through active surveillance in 2011-2013. The AEFI incidence rate was 718.70 per 100 000 doses,no difference in the incidence between three years(χ2=5.07). A total of 4164 cases were collected through passive sur?veillance. The incidence rate was 34.09 per 100 000 doses,the incidence increased year by year(χ2=572.02,P<0.05). In ac?tive surveillance cases, 95.32%was the common vaccine reaction, 3.83%was the rare vaccine reaction, no serious vaccinereaction. In passive surveillance cases, the common vaccine reaction, the rare vaccine reaction were 85.09%and 13.32%. The serious vaccine reaction was found in 44 cases. Conclusion The more slightly common vaccine reaction can be found by active surveillance. The sensitivity of Tianjin passive surveillance system is increasing year by year, which can meet the requirements for job. The classification and diagnostic criteria of the serious vaccine reaction need to be established.
