Objective To investigate the mechanism of glucocorticoid resistance in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE) and the effects of Panax Notoginseng Saponins(PNS) on reversing glucocorticoid resistance in lymphocytes. Methods The relevance between P-glycoprotein (P-gp, %) and SLEDAI integrals or clinical effects was analyzed by linear correlation analysis. The lymphocytes from SLE patients were intervened with PNS or verapamil. P-gp of the lymphocytes and Rhodamine 123 (Rh123, %) accumulated in the lymphocytes were assayed by flow cytometry. The percentage of the apoptosis of the lymphocytes stimulated with PNS or verapamil combined with methylprednisolone was identified by double-tagging with Annexin V and propidium iodide (PI) and detected by flow cytometry. Variance analysis or Student's t test was used for statistics. Results The P-gp in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of SLE patients was significantly related to SLEDAI integrals. The difference of P-gp between lymphocytes in the completely remission cases (12.2±2.5)% and lymphocytes in the partial remission or non-effective cases (16.5±4.0)% was statistically significantce. The difference of P-gp and Rh123 between lymphocytes treated with PNS [(11.2±3.1)%,(70.1 ±5.8)% respectively ] and lymphocytes of the control group [ (15.3±2.9)%, (53.9±5.2)% respectively ]was statistically significant. The lymphocytes apoptosis rate in the lymphocytes stimulated with methylprednisone combined with PNS increased significantly compared to the lymphocytes stimulated with methylprednisolone only. Conclusion The action of PNS in suppressing both the expression and the transfer activity of P-gp is possibly the important mechanism to increase the effects of methylprednisolone in inducing lymphocytes apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the positive rate of PCR-reverse dot blot genotyping test and the loads of the viral nucleic acid. Methods The fluorescent PCR assay was used to detect the high-risk HPV(HR-HPV)DNA loads in the cervical mucus samples from 1162 female pa-tients. Patients with positive HR-HPV DNA were further analyzed by PCR-reverse dot blot hybridization as-say for HPV genotyping. Results The overall positive rate of genotyping test was 68. 8% . The positive rate of genotyping test had a significant positive correlation with the Log Koc of HR-HPV DNA loads(r=0. 944, P﹤0. 01). The quadratic curve fitting formula was Y= -1. 806+0. 558X-0. 031X2(Y for genotyping positive rate,X for Log Koc of HR-HPV DNA loads). There were significant differences with the positive rate of gen-otyping test among patients with different viral loads(P﹤0. 01). When HR-HPV DNA loads were 104-105 copies/ ml,105-106 copies/ ml,106-107 copies/ ml and more than 107 copies/ ml,the positive rate of HPV genotyping test were 27. 8% ,48. 5% ,74. 0% ,97. 5% and 33. 3% ,51. 5% ,78. 0% ,97. 5% respective-ly by using different genotyping detection reagents. Conclusion The positive rate of PCR-reverse dot blot genotyping test was correlated with the loads of HPV nucleic acid.

Objective To observe the effect of one-lung ventilation (OLV) on cerebral oxygen balance and energy metabolism during total intravenous anesthesia for thoracoscopic surgery.Methods Thirty patients scheduled for thoracoscopic surgery were selected.After inducing and intubating,patients were assigned to maintenance of anesthesia with propofol by target controlled infusion in order to maintain a bispectral index(BIS) between 40 and 60,and end-tidal partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PETCO2) between 30mmHg and 35mmHg.Mean arterial pressure (MAP),heart rate (HR),SpO2,PetCO2,cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFv),BIS value and nasopharyngeal temperature(NPT) were measured,always with the patients in the lateral position,in four phases:10min after beginning twolung ventilation (TLV),15 min after beginning OLV (OLV + 15),30min after beginning OLV (OLV + 30) and 60 min after beginning OLV(OLV + 60).Blood samples were drawn simultaneously and analyzed within 5min.The Da-jvO2,CERO2,CMRO2,Da-jvLac and Da-jvGlu at each phase were calculated.Results In all patients,a decrease in PaO2 [(172±85) vs (428±42);(162±54) vs (428±42);(185±61) vs (428±42)] and MAP [(70±10) vs (81 ±11) ; (71 ± 12) vs (81 ± 11)] occurred during OLV (t =15.02,13.14,23.25,20.16,18.02,all P ＜ 0.05).SjvO2 at the phase:OLV + 15 and OLV + 30 were significantly lower than those at TLV [(54.0 ± 1.2) ％ vs (65.0 ± 0.8) ％ ;(55.0±1.5)％ vs (65.0 ±0.8)％] (t =3.12,2.14,all P＜0.05).Ca-jvO2[(50 ± 12)％ vs(40 ± 12)％ ;(54±11)％ vs (40 ± 12)％],CMRO2 [(186 ±40) vs (162 ± 35);(191 ±24) vs (162 ±35)]and CERO2 [(36 ± 12) vs (30 ± 1 1) ; (35 ± 10) vs (30 ± 11)] atthephase:OLV + 15 andOLV + 30weresignificantlyhigher than those at TLV (t =5.23,4.28,1.86,2.01,8.21,10.11,all P ＜ 0.05).After OLV,Da-jvGlu [(0.45 ± 0.10) vs (0.22 ± 0.30) ; (0.52 ± 0.20) vs (0.22 ± 0.30) ; (0.40 ± 0.20) vs (0.22 ± 0.30)] significantly increased (t =6.45,12.03,15.10,all P ＜ 0.05).The differences of Da-jvLac and CBFv at every phase were not significant (P ＞0.05).Conclusion During total intravenous anesthesia,OLV resulted in an increase of consumption of cerebral oxygen and energy.It may be not good for cerebral oxygen balance and energy metabolism.The efficient prevention is necessary clinically.

Objective To observe and cpmpare the efficacy and complications of hyperfractional integrated intraeavitary brachtherapy in middle-advanced squamous-cell carcinoma with the traditionsl brachytherapy.Methods In the observed group,328 patients with cervical cancer received hypeffractional integrated intracavitary after loading therapy between Jan 2004 and Jan 2005 were selected.The dose of point A was 2.5 Gy-3.0 Gy/fraction,2 fractions per week,and the total dose of reference point A was 49.8 Gy in stage Ⅱ b,52.6 Gy in stage in Ⅲb.In the control group,331 cases treated with traditional aflerloading brachytherapy between Jan 2002 and Dec 2003 were selected.The dose of point A was 5.0～7.0 Gy/fraction,1 fraction per week,and the total dose of point A was 50.1 Gy in stage Ⅱb,53.5 Gy in stage Ⅲb.In vitro irradiation began at the same time with the intracavitary brachytherapy.The whole pelvic was irradiated with 15 MV X-rays.Results In the observed group,the recent control rate of stage Ⅱb was 97.2%(104/107),94.1%(208/221)for stage Ⅲb.The 3-year survival rate was 80.5%(264/328).and the 5-year survival rate was 68.6%(225/328).The complication rate was 5.2%(17/328)for cystitis, 14.6%(48/328) for proctitis.Out of 331 cases in control group,the recent control rate of stage Ⅱb was 95.4%(103/108),92.8%(207/223)for stage Ⅲb.The 3-year survival rate was 75.2%(249/331),the 5-vear survival rate was 62.5%(207/331).The complication rate was 13.3%(44/331)for cystitis,and 32.3%(107/331)for proctitis.Conclusions Compared with combination of traditional brachytherapy and external radiotherapy,combination of hyperfraetional integrated brachtherapy therapy and external radiotherapy has no significant improvement for recent control rate and long-term survival rate,but could reduce the complication rates of cystitis and proctitis.

Objective To study the application of autoregressive integrated moving average(ARIMA)model to predict the monthly reported malaria cases in China,so as to provide a reference for prevention and control of malaria. Methods SPSS 24.0 software was used to construct the ARIMA models based on the monthly reported malaria cases of the time series of 2006-2015 and 2011-2015,respectively. The data of malaria cases from January to December,2016 were used as validation data to compare the accuracy of the two ARIMA models. Results The models of the monthly reported cases of malaria in China were ARIMA(2,1,1)(1,1,0)12 and ARIMA(1,0,0)(1,1,0)12 respectively. The comparison between the predictions of the two models and actual situation of malaria cases showed that the ARIMA model based on the data of 2011-2015 had a higher ac-curacy of forecasting than the model based on the data of 2006-2015 had. Conclusion The establishment and prediction of ARIMA model is a dynamic process,which needs to be adjusted unceasingly according to the accumulated data,and in addi-tion,the major changes of epidemic characteristics of infectious diseases must be considered.

One case of Listeria monocytogenes bacteremia in third trimester of pregnancy admitted in Zhongnan Hospital was reported .And 25 cases of maternal listeriosis were retrieved from domestic literature search up to March 2017.The clinical features of 26 cases were analyzed .The newly reported case was a 27-year-old primigravida at 37 weeks 5 days of gestation presenting with fever for 23 days. Listeria monocytogenes was identified in blood culture .She was treated with intravenous piperacillin sodium and tazobactam sodium for 3 weeks and recovered .At 39 weeks 4 days of gestation, she gave birth of a male baby by vaginal delivery .The newborn baby was healthy with negative Listeria monocytogene in blood culture.The age of onset of all 26 cases was (30.2 ±4.7)years.There were 1, 13 and 12 patients with listeriosis diagnosed in the first, second and third trimester of pregnancy , respectively.The median time from onset to symptom presentation was 2 days.Clinical manifestations included fever (92%,24/26), leukocytosis (75%,18/24), abdominal pain (27%,7/26), fetal movement decrease or lose (23%,6/26) and vaginal bleeding (15%,4/26).Listeria monocytogenes were isolated from blood (11 cases), uterus swab (7 cases), amniotic fluid (2 cases) and so on.High proportion of adverse pregnancy outcomes occurred (88%,22/25).All gravidae recovered well after the termination of pregnancy .The empirical antibiotics did not cover those sensitive to listeria in all patients .Patients with maternal listeriosis often presented with acute fever and a high incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes , however, empirical antibiotics can hardly cover Listeria monocytogene.Thus, clinicians should improve awareness of listeriosis to avoid missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis .

Objective:To evaluate the effects of different doses of dexmedetomidine infused at nighttime on early postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in elderly patients undergoing radical resection of malignant gastrointestinal tumors.Methods:Eighty American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients of either sex, aged 65-75 yr, with body mass index of 18-24 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective radical resection of malignant gastrointestinal tumors, were divided into 4 groups ( n=20 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C) and different doses of dexmedetomidine groups (D 1-3 groups). Dexmedetomidine 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 μg·kg -1·h -1 (infusion rate 4 ml/h) were intravenously infused from 21: 00 on the day of surgery and the first day after surgery until 6: 00 in the next morning.Normal saline was given instead of dexmedetomidine in group C. The period of sleep and the number of awakening at night were recorded before surgery and at 2 and 7 days after surgery.Cognitive function was assessed at 1 day before surgery and 7 days after surgery.The concentrations of plasma cortisol were measured at 16: 00 before surgery and 2 and 7 days after surgery and at 8: 00 in the corresponding morning of the next day.The difference in the plasma cortisol concentration measured at 8: 00 every day and at 16: 00 of the previous day were calculated. Results:The incidence of POCD was significantly lower in D 2, 3 groups than in group C ( P<0.05). The number of awakening at night was significantly decreased at 2 days after surgery in group D 3 as compared with the other three groups ( P<0.05). The difference in the plasma cortisol concentration was significantly decreased at 2 and 7 days after surgery in D 2, 3 groups when compared with group C and group D 1 ( P<0.05). Compared with group D 2, no significant change was found in the difference in the plasma cortisol concentration at each time point in group D 3 ( P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence of hypotension, hypertension, bradycardia, and tachycardia among the four groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Infusing dexmedetomidine 0.2 or 0.3 μg·kg -1·h -1 at the nighttime can reduce the development of POCD in the elderly patients undergoing radical resection of malignant gastrointestinal tumors.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) on sedation in healthy volunteers.Methods:Forty-six healthy volunteers of both sexes, with the Sleep Self-Rating Scale score 10-30, aged 22-28 yr, with the body mass index 18.5-23.0 kg/m 2, were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=23 each) using a random number table method: TEAS group (E group) and control group (C group). Bilateral Neiguan and Shenmen acupoints were stimulated for 30 min in group E, while the stimulator was only connected, and no current was given in group C. The bispectral index (BIS)value, heart rate, oxygen saturation and mean arterial pressure were recorded at 10 min in the supine position (T 0) during the quiet period, at 10 min intervals during stimulation (T 1, 2) and at 5 min intervals within 15 min after the end of electrical stimulation (T 3-5). Then the condition whether the patient had fallen asleep was observed, and the patients were followed up on the second day for sleep status and related complications. Results:Compared with the baseline at T 0, the BIS value was significantly decreased at T 2-5 in group E ( P<0.05). The BIS value was significantly lower at T 3, 4 in group E than in group C ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in sleep status during stimulation and at the night of the trial between the two groups ( P>0.05). Heart rate, oxygen saturation and mean arterial pressure were in the normal range at each time point, and no trial-related complications occurred in the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:TEAS can produce certain sedative effect on healthy volunteers.

Objective:Applying bibliometrics to analyze the research history, hotspots and trends of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) interventions in edema-related diseases, and to provide reference for the revision of diagnostic and therapeutic criteria for edema in TCM.Methods:The literature about edema treated with TCM was retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, CBM from 1 st. Jan 1995 to 25 th. May 2022. CiteSpace and VOSviewer softwares were used to draw the knowledge map, and analyze the co-occurrence relationship and clustering characteristics of the institution, author, keywords and mechanism hotspots. Results:Totally 3 198 articles were included. The annual number of documents issued generally shows a spiral rise trend. Liaoning University of Chinese Medicine published the most articles. Core authors published the most articles were Sun Wei (13 articles); the team with the highest cooperation intensity was Yang Hongtao's team; keywords formed 7 clusters. Hotspot mechanisms included metabolic disorders, immune balance, anti-inflammation, calcium and phosphorus metabolism. Keywords in the past 7 years were membranous nephropathy, chronic heart failure, diabetes, lymphedema etc.Conclusions:The attention paid to the intervention of TCM in the field of edema is generally on the rise, and has decreased in the past two years. The research categories focus on the experience of famous doctors, clinical trials, and mechanistic studies, and nephropathy-related edema has been the focus of research; diabetic nephropathy, chronic heart failure, metabolomics, and immunotherapy are expected to be the focus of attention in the next stage.

Based on the content of medical professionalism and the theoretical model of knowledge, belief and practice, this paper used the methods of "inductive category construction" and "deductive category construction" to form the categories and analyze the text, taking the narrative materials of 112 "volunteer stars" outstanding individuals selected by the pre-medical student office of student affairs department of Peking University Health Science Center from 2019 to 2021 as the research subjects. The findings demonstrated that volunteer service had a positive effect on the cultivation of medical professionalism of medical freshmen, and played an effective role in guiding medical freshmen from the two dimensions of knowledge and belief, in which the role of medical voluntary service was more obvious. However, the breadth and depth of volunteer service in cultivating medical professionalism were limited. Based on this, this paper proposed that medical colleges and universities should emphasize voluntary service in the cultivation of medical professionalism, especially the development of medical voluntary service activities designed for medical students, and strengthen the cultivation effect by coordinating with other cultivation methods.
