Objective:To survey the practice of hospice care and influencing factors among health providers in Shanghai.Methods:From November to December in 2019, a sampling survey on the practice of hospice care was conducted among 2 982 health providers from 217 institutions in 16 districts of Shanghai by using the self-designed scale.Results:The overall behavior frequency of hospice care in health providers was between "occasionally" (3 points) and "often" (4 points). The item score was (3.7±0.9), and the total score was (52.1±10.0). In the aspect of building a good relationship with patients and family(77.7%, 2 317/2 982), the participants had the highest work-practice(46.4%, 1 383/2 982). However, they practiced less in recommending the hospice care institutions to terminal patients. In terms of work-practice, the average score in male providers, those with education of undergraduate and above, those being married (including divorced or widowed), medical staff, those with associated senior titles, with witness of dying, or those currently working in the hospice care service department was higher.Conclusions:The hospice care work-practice of health providers in Shanghai is generally satisfactory, however, there is still some discrepancy among health providers with various characteristics. To further improve quality of hospice care, it is necessary to strengthen policy implementation, to encourage multidisciplinary team cooperation and carry out various forms of professional training for health providers.

Objective To investigate the influence of di-(2-ethylexyl) phthalate (DEHP) on cell apoptosis and expression of Bcl-2 and bax in cultured human first trimester cytotrophoblasts. Methods Human first trimester cytotrophoblasts were cultured with DEHP at concentration of 0, 25, 50, 100 μmol/Lfor 24 hours. Cell apoptosis was detected by the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate nick-end labeling (TUNEL) and flow cytometer method. The expression of apoptosis-associated genes, including Bcl-2 and bax, were detected by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR in cultured cytotrophoblast cells. The protein expression of Bcl-2 and bax in cytotrophoblast cells was measured by western blot. Results (1) The expression of Bcl-2: when incubated with DEHP at concentration of 0, 25,50 and 100 μmol/L, the expression of Bcl-2 were 1.00 ± 0.05, 1.03 ± 0.04, 1.04 ± 0.03, 1.04± 0.04,which did not show statistical difference ( P > 0.05 ). The expression of Bcl-2 protein were 0.11 ± 0.02,0.11 ±0.04, 0.12±0.02, 0.12 ±0.03, which also didn't reach statistical difference (P>0.05). (2)The expression of bax: when incubated with DEHP at concentration of 50 and 100 μmol/L, the expression of bax protein were 0.63 ± 0.04 and 0.81 ± 0.04, which were significantly higher than 0.23 ± 0.05 with DEHP at 0 μmol/L (P < 0.05). The expression of bax mRNA were 0.96 ± 0.04 and 1.02 ± 0.04, which was significantly higher than 0.81 ±0.05 with DEHP at 0 μmol/L (P < 0.05). (3) Apoptosis: when incubated with DEHP at concentration of 50 and 100 μmol/L for 24 hours, the apoptotic cell ratio were ( 18.8 ± 2.6) % and ( 20.3 ± 2.0) % by annexin V-FITC/PI staining, which were significantly higher than (10.6±1.4)% at 0 μmol/L and (18.1 ±4.6)% and (19.5 ±1.2)% by TUNEL staining, which were significantly higher than ( 11.2 ± 3.1 ) % at 0 μmol/L of DEHP (P < 0.05). Conclusion DEHP could induce apoptosis of cytotrophoblast cells by increasing bax gene expression, but had no effect on Bcl-2 expression.

OBJECTIVE: To probe into the pharmacological mechanism of the Chinese medicinal compound Qinggong Zhixue Granule (QGZXG), which has an effect of replenishing qi to activate blood and expelling stasis to stop bleeding, in treating irregular vaginal bleeding after medical abortion. METHODS: Healthy female KM mice and mice with immunodeficiency caused by cytoxan (CTX) were chosen as experimental subjects. The effects of QGZXG on the phagocytization of the mice's monocytes (by using the method of carbon particles expurgation), the delayed type hypersensitivity caused by 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) and the content of antibody of hemolysin in the mice's serum were observed. RESULTS: (1) QGZXG improved the ability of the liver and spleen of immunodeficient mice to expurgate carbon particles. There was an significant statistical difference between the CTX treated group and the low dose group as well as the high dose group (P < 0.01) and a statistical difference between the CTX treated group and the medium dose group (P < 0.05). (2) QGZXG boosted the cellular immunity of immunodeficient mice. The ear swelling of mice in low, medium and high dose group was more obvious than that in the CTX treated group, and this difference was significant in statistics (P < 0.01). (3) QGZXG raised the content of the antibody of hemolysin in the serum of immunodeficient mice. A statistical difference occurred between the high dose group and the CTX treated group. The low and medium dose also had a tendency of such effect. CONCLUSION: QGZXG can improve both the specific and non-specific immunity of the immunodeficient mice, and therefore accelerate the recovery of the whole body and endometrium after parturition and abortion. In consequence, it leads to shorter duration and less quantity of vaginal bleeding after medical abortion.
