In the early 20th century,the term Nursing was introduced into China.In 1884,with the arrival of the first batch of missionary nurse,modern nursing initiated by Nightingale was introduced into China and greatly changed the way of care.The missionary nurses were full of enthusiasm for the spreading Gospel of Christ,the love for nursing care and the empathy for Chinese people;and encountered the lack of staff and material,the mis-understanding and resistance from the local people and other multiple tests.With the untiring effort of them and the trained local nurses,China had led the international care in nursing education and practice standard.Based on this,nursing in Shandong gradually rose and had an unprecedented development as a new medical subject.By clearing up and consulting Chinese and English historical materials,this paper reviewed the 60 years of the mission-ary nurses in China,saw the early development of nursing in our country from the budding and development of Shandong nursing and provided more insights for understanding and solving the complex problems contemporary Chinese nursing faces.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the purity determination of bisacodyl by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)and the valuation of uncertainty. METHODS:DSC was conducted to detect the purity of bisacodyl and determine the optimal testing condi-tions. According to related standards,indium enthalpy change values,measurement repeatability,weighing process,instrument tem-perature deviation and system software deviation were systematically analyzed. The results were verified by HPLC. RESULTS:When the fiducial probability P was 0.95,the standard value and uncertainty of content of bisacodyl was (99.88 ± 0.06)% mea-sured by DSC. Weighing process,instrument temperature deviation and system software deviation had great effects on the total un-certainty. The result of HPLC and DSC were the same. CONCLUSIONS:The established DSC can quickly and accurately determine the chemical purity of bisacodyl. The uncertainty evaluation is reliable. Regularly calibrated and verificated equipment and strict con-trol of the weighing process will help to improve the accuracy measured by DSC;and it provides a new analysis method for the de-termination of purity of bisacodyl.

Objective To evaluate the effect of isoflurane preconditioning on inflammatory responses during spinal cord injury (SCI ) in rats .Methods Sixty adult male Sprague-Dawley rats ,weighing 250-300 g , were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n= 20 each ) using a random number table :sham operation group (S group) , SCI group , and isoflurane preconditioning group (I group ) . The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital sodium 40 mg/kg .SCI was produced by a weight-drop contusion at the T10 level .The rats inhaled 2% isoflurane for 2 h ,and the model was established at 24 h after the end of isoflurane inhalation in I group . Neurological function was assessed and scored by using the the Basso , Beattie , Bresnahan (BBB ) Locomotor Rating Scale on 7 days after SCI .Five rats in each group were then chosen and spinal cord specimens were obtained and cut into sections which were stained with haematoxylin and eosin for determination of the viable neuron count .Fifteen rats in each group were sacrificed and the spinal cord was removed for detection of nuclear factor kappaB (NF-κB ) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) expression (by Western blot ) .Results Compared with S group ,BBB score and the number of viable neurons were significantly decreased ,and the expression of NF-κB and IL-1βprotein was up-regulated in SCI group ( P<0.05) .Compared with SCI group ,BBB score and the number of viable neurons were significantly increased ,and the expression of NF-κB and IL-1βprotein was down-regulated in group I ( P<0.05 ) .Conclusion The mechanism by which isoflurane preconditioning protects the spinal cord is related to inhibition of inflammatory responses in rats .

Ovotestis is a rare disorder of sexual differentiation in which the gonads have both ovarian and testicular elements. The patients always present with ambiguous external genitalia, and there are usually with serious disorder between chromosomal sex, gonadal sex, social sex, and psychological sex. The definite diagnosis and gender confirmation, appropriate surgery in internal genitalia and orthomorphia in external genitalia, as well as psychological support are essential for a multidisciplinary medical group in managing this disease. The medical data of two children with ovotestis who were reared as boy or girl respectively were analyzed.

Objective To evaluate the effects of leptin on brain injury and long-term cognitive function in rats undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation. Methods Ninety clean-grade male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 3 months, weighing 200-250 g, were divided into 3 groups by a random number table method: sham operation group ( S group) , liver ischemia-reperfusion ( I∕R) group ( I∕R group) and lep-tin group ( L group) , with 18 rats in each group. Orthotopic liver transplantation was performed to estab-lish the model of liver I∕R injury in I∕R and L groups. Leptin 1 mg∕kg was intraperitoneally injected at the onset of ischemia in L group, and the equal volume of normal saline was given instead of leptin in S and I∕R groups. Twelve rats in each group were sacrificed at 3 days after operation, and brains were removed for ex-amination of the pathological changes in hippocampal CA1 region ( with a light microscope) and for determi-nation of apoptosis in hippocampal neurons ( by TUNEL assay) and expression of aquaporin 4 ( AQP4) and protein kinase C ( PKC) in the hippocampus ( by Western blot) . The apoptosis rate was calculated. The remaining 6 rats in each group underwent a Morris water maze test at 30 days after surgery to evaluate long-term cognitive function. Results Compared with S group, the apoptosis rate of hippocampal neurons was significantly increased, the expression of AQP4 and PKC was up-regulated, the escape latency was pro-longed, and the time of staying at the platform quadrant was shortened in I∕R and L groups (P<0. 05). Compared with I∕R group, the apoptosis rate of hippocampal neurons was significantly decreased, the ex-pression of AQP4 and PKC was down-regulated, the escape latency was shortened, and the time of staying at the platform quadrant was prolonged in L group (P<0. 05). Conclusion Leptin can reduce the brain damage in rats undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation, the mechanism may be related to down-regulating the expression of PKC and AQP4, and leptin can also improve long-term cognitive function after orthotopic liver transplantation in rats.

To identify and analyze the virulence of a bacteria strain isolated from the blood of a patient with suspected Streptococcus suis (S.suis) infection in a hospital of Beijing,we inoculated the bacteria strain isolated from the blood of the patient to the Columbia with sheep blood agar plate,after Gram staining and microscopical examination,serum agglutination test,VITEK 2 Compact microbial identification system test and matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) test,S,suis species specific gene 16SrRNA,S.suis species serotype 2 specific virulence gene capsule polysaccharide 2J (cps2J) and virulence gene muramidase-released protein (mrp),hemolysin (sly),extracellular factor protein (ef),glutamate dehydrogenase (gdh) genes,fibronectin-binding protein (fbps),glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gapdh) genes and virulence correlated gene orf2 were further detected by PCR.Results showed that the suspicious bacteria strain of S.suis was identified as S.suis type 2 (S.suis 2) by conventional methods,MALDI-TOF-MS and PCR.PCR results showed that cps2J,sly,ef,gdh,fbps,gapdh and or f2 genes were positive,and mrp gene was negative.In conclusion,the bacteria strain isolated from the patient's blood is sly+/ef+/mrp-virulent S.suis 2.

Objective To investigate the relationship between early progression in elderly patients with minor stroke and abnormal circadian rhythm of blood pressure.Methods From June 2013 to December 2016,180 patients with mild stroke (age >65 years,the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale Score ≤3) at the Department of Neurology,Beijing Zhongguancun Hospital were recruited retrospectively.They were divided into either a progress group (n=48;the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score increased≥2) or a non-progress group (n=132) according to whether they developed an early neurological deterioration (within 5 days after onset).The baseline data,risk factors for cerebrovascular disease (hypertension,diabetes mellitus,stroke,chronic smoking,alcohol consumption,hyperlipidemia,and homocysteine) in patients of both groups were compared.The normal (dipper-type blood pressure)/abnormal circadian rhythm of blood pressure (non-dipper-type blood pressure,super dipper-type blood pressure,and inverse dipper-type blood pressure) were monitored by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring.The guilty arteries were divided into severe stenosis or occlusion,non-severe stenosis or without stenosis.Multivariate logistic regression analysis and multi-class dummy variable analysis were further performed.Results The proportions of past diabetes history,stroke history,abnormal circadian rhythm of blood pressure,severe stenosis and occlusion of guilty artery in the patients of the progress group were higher than those of the non-progress group (70.8% [n=34] vs.49.2% [n=65],64.6% [n=31] vs.47.7% [n=63],89.6% [n=43] vs.26.5% [n=35],and 77.1% [n=37] vs.39.4% [n=52] respectively).The differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05).The factors of having statistical differences were substituted into multivariate logistic regression analysis,which showed that abnormal circadian rhythm of blood pressure (OR,7.072,95%CI 3.004-16.431;P<0.01) and severe stenosis or occlusion of guilty arteries (OR,6.217,95%CI 2.034-14.212,P=0.003) were the independent risk factors for early progression of minor stroke in the elderly.The dummy variable analysis of abnormal circadian rhythm of blood pressure showed that the super dipper-type blood pressure (OR,13.429,95%CI 4.175-111.668;P<0.01) in abnormal circadian rhythm of blood pressure was an independent risk factor for early progression of minor stroke in the elderly.Conclusion The abnormal circadian rhythm of blood pressure,especially super dipper-type blood pressure,may be the independent risk factor for early progression of minor stroke in the elderly,which needs to pay close attention to early intervention.

Objective:To explore the influence of Shenhong Tongluo Granules in the lipid levels,atherosclerosis plaques and apoptosis in the plaques of atherosclerotic apolipoprotein E (ApoE)-knokout mice,and to clarify the mechanism of Shenhong Tongluo Granules in anti-atherosclerosis.Methods:Forty SPF male mice aged six-week old were randomly divided into normal control group,model group,low dose of traditional chinese medicine (TCM) group and high dose of TCM group (n=10)after fed adaptively for 1 week.The mice in normal control group were fed with normal diet continuously, the mice in other three groups were fed with high fat diet to establish atherosclerosis model,and then the mice in low and high doses of TCM groups were respectively given Shenhong Tongluo Granules (5.06 and 10.12 g·kg-1 · d-1 )by gavage for 6 weeks. The levels of serum total cholesterol (TC),triglycerides (TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)of the mice in various groups were measured after the eyeball blood was collected.The aortic arch tissue was separated,and the morphotogy and the areas of atherosclerotic plaques were observed and calculated by HE staining;the apoptosis in plaques of the mice was evaluated by TUNEL method, and the apoptosis index was calculated. The expressions of apoptosis-assoicated gene Bcl-2 and Bax protein were measured by immunohistochemical staining.Results:The serum level of TG in low dose of TCM group was lower than that in model group (P <0.05);the serum levels of HDL-C in low and high doses of TCM groups were lower than that in model group (P <0.05 or P <0.01);the serum levels of TG and HDL-C in high dose of TCM group was higher than that in low dose of TCM group (P <0.05).The areas of atherosclerotic plaques of the mice in low and high doses of TCM groups were significantly smaller than that in model group (P <0.01).The apoptosis index of mice in low and high doses of TCM groups were significantly lower than that in model group (P <0.01);the expression levels of Bcl-2 protein in atherosclerosis plaques of the mice in low and high doses of TCM groups were lower than that in model group,while the expression levels of Bax were significantly higher than that in model group (P <0.05 or P <0.01).Conclusion:Shenhong Tongluo Granules could effectively reduce the serum lipid level of ApoE-/-mice,meanwhile it could inhibit apoptosis by regulating the expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax protein,and then inhibit the progression of atherosclerotic plaques.

Objective:To explore the correlation between fluoride intake and serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in pregnant women of different gestational periods in endemic fluorosis area.Methods:Pregnant women in Rencheng District, Jinxiang County, Jiaxiang County of Jining City and Yuncheng County of Heze City were selected in April 2020. According to the gestational weeks, pregnant women were divided into early pregnancy group (0 - 12 weeks), middle pregnancy group (13 - 27 weeks) and late pregnancy group (> 27 weeks). The levels of urinary fluoride, ALP, osteocalcin (BGP), C-terminal peptide of β-Ⅰ collagen (β-CTX) and N-terminal propeptide of type Ⅰ collagen (PINP) of pregnant women in each group were measured, and the correlation between urinary fluoride and ALP, BGP, β-CTX, and PINP in pregnant women of different gestational periods was analyzed.Results:A total of 372 pregnant women were selected, including 97 cases in early pregnancy group, 169 cases in middle pregnancy group and 106 cases in late pregnancy group. There was no significant difference in urinary fluoride level between the three groups [(1.20 ± 0.25), (1.23 ± 0.19), (1.24 ± 0.30) mg/L, P > 0.05]. There was significant difference in serum ALP among the three groups ( P < 0.05), among them, the ALP level in early pregnancy was significantly lower than those of middle pregnancy group and late pregnancy group ( P < 0.05), and the ALP level in middle pregnancy was significantly lower than that of late pregnancy group ( P < 0.05). There was no significant differences in serum β-CTX among the three groups ( P > 0.05). There were significant differences in serum BGP and PINP levels among the three groups ( P < 0.05). The serum BGP and PINP levels in late pregnancy group were significantly higher than those of early pregnancy group and middle pregnancy group ( P < 0.05), and there were no significant differences in serum BGP and PINP levels between early pregnancy group and middle pregnancy group ( P < 0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between urinary fluoride and ALP in early pregnancy group ( r = 0.364, P < 0.05), but no significant correlation between urinary fluoride and BGP, β-CTX and PINP ( r = 0.164, 0.117, 0.136, P > 0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between urinary fluoride level and ALP in middle pregnancy group ( r = 0.417, P < 0.05), but no significant correlation between urinary fluoride level and BGP, β-CTX and PINP ( r = 0.127, 0.108, 0.129, P > 0.05). There was no significant correlation between urinary fluoride level and ALP, BGP, β-CTX and PINP in late pregnancy group ( r = 0.179, 0.158, 0.184, 0.149, P > 0.05). Conclusions:The urinary fluoride level of pregnant women in endemic fluorosis area is relatively stable in gestational period. The urinary fluoride level affects the ALP secretion of pregnant women in early and middle pregnancy. It is still necessary to strengthen the measures of improving water quality and defluoridation to reduce the impact of excessive fluoride intake on pregnancy complications in endemic fluorosis area.
