Objective To evaluate the performance of bispectral index (BIS),auditory evoked potential index (AEPI) and cardiovascular response to electrical tetanus stimulus (ETS) for monitoring depth of sedation induced by propofol , analgesia produced by fenanyl and depth of isoflurane anesthesia. Methods Twenty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes (11 males,9 females) aged 18-56 yr, weighing 50-80 kg undergoing elective brain surgery were studied. The patients were unpremedicated. The baseline BIS, AEPI, BP(SP, DP) and HR were measured before anesthesia. Propofol was infused at 0.25 mg?kg-1?min-1 and the infusion was stopped when the total amount of propofol infused reached 5 mg?kg-1 at the end of 20 min infusion. Fentanyl 2 ?g?kg-1 was then given i.v. Three minutes later the patients were intubated and mechanically ventilated. Tracheal intubation was facilitated by vecuronium 0.1 mg?kg-1. Anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane. Depth of sedation was measured using OAA/S scale during propofol infusion. ETS was given at the following time points: when the amount of propofol infused reached 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0 mg?kg-1,2 min after fentanyl administration and at 0.7, 1.0, 1.3 MAC isoflurane (end-tidal isoflurane concentration). BIS and AEPI values before and after ETS and changes in BP and HR (ABP, AHR) after ETS and the time for BP and HR to return to the pre-ETS value in 50% and 90% of the patients (TBP50%,TBP90%,THR50%,THR90% ) were recorded. Results BIS and AEPI were positively correlated with sedation depth. There were no significant changes in BIS and AEPI after ETS, but SP, DP and HR increased significantly after ETS( P

Objective To assess the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of Conditions of Learning Effectiveness Questionnaire (CLEQ). Methods To translate and revise the Chinese version of CLEQ. A total of 176 baccalaureate nursing students were surveyed by the Chinese version of CLEQ and the results about the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of CLEQ were assessed. Results Cronbach's α of the total Chinese version of CLEQ was 0.956. Cronbach's α of four subscales were all over 0.70. The internal consistency was good. The reliability of Split half was 0.926 and retest reliability was 0.869. CVI of the four subscales were 0.91～1.00. The average CVI of the scale was 0.94. There were significant relationships among subscales. The correlation coefficient was 0.691～0.829. Four common factors were found through factor analysis, which explained the percent of 61.63% rotation sums of squared loadings. Conclusions The reliability and validity of the Chinese version of CLEQ were good, so it could be used to evaluate the level of clinical learning environment among nursing students.

Objective To explore the relation between prostaglandin E2(PGE2) and the mechanosensitivity of osteoblasts and to analyze its action mechanism in cellular level .Methods Osteoblasts cell line MC3T3-E1 cells were performed the pre-treatment by using 16 ,16-dimethyl prostaglandin E2(dmPGE2) .Then the regulating effect of PGE2 on intracellular calcium ion signal was ob-served;the activator agent and inhibitor of the protein kinase A (PKA) signal path were adopted to detect the participating effect of the PKA signal path in the regulating process .Results Compared with the blank treatment group ,dmPGE2 pre-treatment signifi-cantly increased the calcium ion signal intensity induced by hypotonic swelling stimulation in MC 3T3-E1 cells .This effect of dmPGE2 was mimicked by 8-bromo-cAMP(8br-cAMP) ,an activator of PKA pathway ;but blocked by PKI ,an inhibitor of PKA pathway .Conclusion dmPGE2 is able to up-regulate the calcium response induced by hypotonic swelling stimulation by activating PKA pathway ,which provides an important cellular mechanism for explaining PGE2′s anabolic effect in bone tissue .

Objective To detect the expression of AKT2 in human colon cancer and understand its relationship with PTEN.Methods The expressions of AKT2 and PTEN were detected in 30 patients with normal colonic tissues,30 patients with colon adenoma tissues,and 64 patients with colon carcinoma tissues by immunohistochemical SP staining method.Results The positive expressive rate of PTEN presented a trend of progressive decrease from normal tissues,adenoma tissues to colon carcinoma tissues,while the positive expression rate of AKT2 presented a trend of progressive increase.PTEN expression was obviously higher in normal colon tissues than in colon adenoma tissues and colon cancer tissues(?2=68.855,P

Objective To study the changes in cortical activation of frontal lobes and temporal lobes between schizophrenic patients and comparison subjects during a verbal fluency task by using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Methods Thirteen schizophrenic patients and 8 volunteers were studied during a verbal fluency task performance. fMRI of frontal lobes and temporal lobes was conducted at a GE 1.5 T Signa Horizon LX scanner while the subjects performed the task. Stimulus sequences were divided into six 30-second segments by using a task-activation paradigm that alternated between resting and stimulated states. Results Schizophrenic subjects demonstrated significantly less left frontal activation than comparison subjects during a word fluency task, and comparison subjects showed evidently more activation in left frontal lobes than in the right (P0.05). Conclusion These preliminary data suggest that fMRI has the sensitivity to detect the differences in activation between comparison subjects and schizophrenic patients during higher cortical functions.

Objective To develop a clinical practice satisfaction scale for the nursing interns,and to test its reliability and validity.Methods Original scale was formed on the basis of literature review and existing clinical practice satisfaction measurement tools of nursing interns.Totally 270 nursing interns of six tertiary first-class hospitals were investigated with the clinical practice satisfacfion scale of nursing intern by convenience sampling.SPSS13.0 and AMOS 17.0 were used to test the reliability and validity.Then the original scale was modified and the eventual scale was formed.Results The Cronbach's Alpha between each entries and the total scale were 0.548～0.752.The Cranbach's Alpha of total scale was 0.965and the split-half reliability of Guttman was 0.885.Five factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis and they could explain 65.307％ of the total variance.The confirmatory factor analysis revealed a good model fit of the first and second order,and the fit indices x2/df,GFI,AGFI,RMR,RMSEA,NFI,CFI,TLI were 1.176/1.095,0.893/0.900,0.856/0.864,0.034/0.033,0.026/0.019,0.918/0.924,0.987/0.993,0.983/0.991.Conclusions The clinical practice satisfaction scale of nursing intern is reliable and valid,and can be used to assess the clinical practice satisfaction of nursing intern.

Objective To explore effect of Simotang on gastrointestinal motility and expression of vasoactive intestinal peptide(VIP) in the hypothalamus, spinal cord and duodenum of chronical stressed mice. Methods Mice were randomly divided into normal, stress and Simotang group( n= 10 in each group), and given a variety of unpredictable chronic mild stress. After 21 days gastric emptying and intestinal propulsion function were measured,the expression of VIP was detected by immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR. Results Compared with mice in normal group( (49.81 ± 8.56)%; (51.02 ± 5.11 )% ), chronic stress increased gastric residual rate( (61.53 ±8.71 ) %; P ＜ 0.05 ) and reduced small intestine propulsion rate ( ( 31.79 ± 2.38 ) %; P ＜ 0. 05 ). There were differences in expressions of VIP positive cells and mRNA in duodenum( (8.8 ± 1.1 )/mm2 and(0. 58 ±0.03) ),hypothalamus ( ( 12.9 ± 1.5 )/mm2 and (0.81 ± 0. 07 ) ) and spinal cord ( ( 12.1 ± 1. 2)/mm2 and (0.76 ± 0.02) )in chronic stress group compared with normal group( (6.5 ± 0. 9)/mm2 and (0.43 ± 0. 04);( 10.8 ± 1.3 )/mm2and (0.57 ± 0.03 ); (9.3 ± 1.5 )/mm2 and (0.53 ± 0. 02 ) respectively). There was not difference in gastric residual rate (52.93 ± 9.15 )%, small intestine rate(48.98 ± 4.38 )% and expressions of VIP positive cells and mRNA in duodenum ( (6.7 ± 0.9)/mm2 and (0.48 ± 0. 05 ) ), hypothalamus ( ( 10. 6 ± 1.4 )/mm2 and ( 0. 61 ± 0. 05 ) )and spinal cord ( (9. 1 ± 1.3)/mm2 and(0.55 ± 0.05 ) ) in Simotang group compared with those in normal group (P ＞ 0.05 ), but there were decreased compared with those in chronic stress group (P ＜ 0.05 ). Conclusion Simotang can regulate expressions of VIP in duodenum, hypothalamusand spinal cord in chronically stressed mice.
