Their bladder sensation were analyzed before and after the treatment.Results57.1% of the patients increased bladder sensation after treatment, 32.1% appeared the first sensation and urge sensation after treatment, 42.9% remained stable.ConclusionIntravesical bladder stimulation is effective to improve bladder sensation in a majority of the patients with neurogenic bladder.

Objective To investigate the effects of azithromycin on airway remodeling and the expression of transforming growth factorβ1 (TGF-β1) in asthmatic mice.Methods BALB/c male mice were random divided into 3 groups:control group(A),asthma group (B),and azithromycin treated group (C),with 10 mice in each group.Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was collected to count the number of white blood cells and eosinophilic granulocytes EOS.The morphological parameters of the bronchi were measured by computer image analysis and the pathologic changes of the bronchi and lung tissue were observed by HE staining.The expressions of TGF-β1 were detected by immunohistochemistry.Results The number of EOS in B group was significantly higher than that in control group(8.12 ±0.54 vs 0.70 ±0.40;8.12 ±0.54 vs 0.87 ±0.25,P ＜0.01).WAt and WAi and WAm in group C was significantly lower than that in group B (10.15 ±0.95 vs 15.36 ±0.85,4.16 ±0.32 vs 10.64 ± 1.03,3.77 ±0.15 vs 7.97 ±0.17,P ＜0.01)but higher than that in group A.The expression of TGF-β1 in group C was significantly lower than that in group B but higher than that in group A.TGF-β1 expression of lung tissue in C group was significantly correlated with EOS,(r =0.840,P ＜0.01) and WAt(r =0.735,P ＜0.01) and WAm (r =0.870,P ＜0.01).Conclusion Azithromycin inhibited airway remodeling in asthmatic mice,which might possibly be achieved through inhibiting the expression of TGF-β1.

Objective To investigate the correlation between heat-shock protein 70-2 (HSP70-2) gene+1267A/G polymorphism and coronary heart disease (CHD) in Han Chinese population. Methods Using the method of polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) , the polymorphism and genotype and allele distribution of HSP70-2 gene + 1267A/G in 185 CHD patients and 149 controls were analyzed. Results The HSP70-2 gene + 1267A/G polymorphism was found in this study population.The distribution of HSP70-2 genotypes was in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The frequency of G allele in CHD group was significantly higher than that in control (61.89% vs51.68%, P ＜ 0. 01). After multiple logistic regression analysis, HSP70-2 gene (GG + AG) genotype was an independent risk factor of coronary heart disease. Conclusion HSP70-2 gene + 1267A/G polymorphism was associated with CHD risk of Han Chinese population, the G allele might serve as a genetic risk factor of coronary heart disease.

Objective To understand the ecological developmental characteristics of rats in the epidemic areas of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) so as to provide a basis for effective control of HFRS.Methods Based on the China National Disease Surveillance Reporting and Management System,data of HFRS cases from 2010 to 2014 were collected and analyzed by retrospective analysis.Meanwhile surveillance data of rats were collected and the capture rates in different seasons,genders and districts were also analyzed.Results Totally 51,92,129,85 and 71 cases of HFRS were reported from 2010 to 2014.Most HFRS cases occurred from October to November which were 43,59,78,37 and 37,respectively.Totally 2902 rats were captured from 2010 to 2014.The five-year average capture rate was 4.87％ (2902/59610).The highest capture rate was 6.94％ (910/13107) in the third quarter and the outdoor capture rate (5.80％,1681/28987) was higher than that of indoor(3.99％,1221/30623,x2 =324.35,P ＜ 0.05).More male rats were captured than female rats and the overall proportion was 62.82％ (348/554) and 37.18％ (206/554),respectively.The outdoor rats were mainly Apodemus agrarius (556),Cricetulus triton (432),Rattus noruegicus (217),Mus musculus (211) and Sorex araneus (139),and the indoor rats were mainly Mus musculus (514),Rattus noruegicus (469) and Sorex araneus (181).The black rat disappeared and White-bellied rat appeared.Conclusions The rat density keeps higher all year round and the type of rats has become increasingly complex.Mixed living of indoor and outdoor rats increased the infection probability of different types of Hantavirus,which has an immediate impact on the spreading pattern of HFRS.

Objective To evaluate the effect of local mild hypothermia on the expression of phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromo-some ten (PTEN) protein during global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods One hundred and eight healthy adult male Wistar rats,weighing 230-280 g,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =36 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),cerebral I/R group (group I/R) and mild hypothermia cerebral I/R group (group HI/R).Global cerebral I/R was induced by 4-vessel occlusion method described by Pulsinelli.Bilateral vertebral arteries were permanently occluded by cauterization,and bilateral carotid arteries were occluded for 15 min.Nasopharyngeal cooling was applied and the nasopharyngeal temperature was reduced to 32.5-33.5 ℃ and maintained at this level for 1 h.When the nasopharyngeal temperature was reduced to 32.5-33.5 ℃,the bilateral carotid arteries were clamped in group HI/ R.Six rats were chosen to be anesthetized and sacrificed immediately before ischemia and at 4,8,12,24 and 72 h of reperfusion.Hippocampal specimens were obtained to detect the expression of phosphorylated PTEN (pPTEN),Bcl-2 and Bax protein (by immunohistochemistry) in hippocampal CA1 region,contents of S100B protein (by ELISA) and MDA (by thiobarbituric acid method),and activity of SOD (by xanthine oxidase method).Results Compared with group S,the expression of p-PTEN and Bcl-2 protein,ratio of Bcl-2/Bax protein and activity of SOD were significantly decreased,and the expression of Bax protein and contents of MDA and S100B protein were increased after reperfusion in group I/R (P ＜ 0.05),and the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax protein was decreased,and there was no significant difference in the expression of p-PTEN,Bcl-2 and Bax protein,activity of SOD and contents of MDA and S100B protein after reperfusion in group HI/R (P ＞ 0.05).Compared with group I/R,the expression of p-PTEN and Bcl-2 protein,Bcl-2/Bax ratio and activity of SOD were significantly increased and the expression of Bax protein and content of MDA and S100B protein were decreased after reperfusion in group HI/R (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which local mild hypothermia reduces cerebral damage is related to inhibition of activation of PTEN protein in the brain tissues during global cerebral I/R in rats.

The operating room is the main place of surgery,but there exist many ethical problems when developing quality nursing service in operating rooms.These problems mainly related to the imperfect preoperative and postoperative visit systems,the lack of effective communication and protection of patients privacy during the operations,and the lack of self-discipline spirit.To solve these problems,we should improve the preoperative and postoperative visit system,strengthen the psychological counseling for patients,cultivate the nurses' self-discipline spirit,respect and protect the privacy of patients,so as to improve the quality of nursing service in the operation rooms,and better service for patients.
