International Journal of Pediatrics 2017;44(5):332-335
Sepsis is one of the most important causes of death in critically ill children.The leading cause of sepsis is bacterial infection.The early diagnosis of bacterial infection allows initiation of appropriate antimicrobial therapy that strongly correlates with positive outcomes.At present,the methods of detection and identification of bacteria in our country are still at the level of blood culture and biochemistry,and they have the weakness of time-consuming process and lower positive rate.Therefore,it is very important to establish a rapid and sensitive diagnostic method for early diagnosis of bacterial infection.In recent years,with the rapid development of molecular detection technology,some new molecular biological technologies can not only improve the detection accuracy and sensitivity,but also reduce the detection hours and expand the detection pathogen spectrum.Nowadays,they have been applied to bacteria classification and identification.There are two kinds of molecular biological technology that are applied at present.One is based on nucleic acid detective technology,such as nucleic acid amplification,DNA sequencing,gene chips,etc.The other is based on proteome technologies,such as biological mass spectrometry.In this paper,the application of recent molecular biological techniques in the rapid detection of bacteria is reviewed.

Modern Clinical Nursing 2014;(5):51-53
Objective To investigate the influence of WeChat on compliance of chronic obstructive drsease(COPD)patients after discharge.Methods Eighty COPD patients were divided into observation group and control group in equal number.The former received health education by WeChat, while the control group regular revisits.The two groups were compared in terms of the compliance in mediation and dieting as well as readmission.Result The rate of compliance in mediation and dieting in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control and the rate of readmission significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion Health education by way of WeChat for COPD patients can enhance their compliance in medication and consolidate the curative effect.

Chinese Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2003;0(04):-
Objective To observe the therapeutic effects of comprehensive rehabilitation treatment in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). Methods Fifty patients with CRF were randomly and equally divided into a rehabilitation group and a control group. Those in the rehabilitation group were intervened with comprehensive rehabilitation protocol including regular counseling, health education and adequate aerobic exercise in addition to routine medications, while those in the control group with the routine medications only. The therapeutic effects were evaluated by means of Symptom Check List- 90(SCL- 90) and the questionnaire about quality of life (QOL) for patients with CRF, as well as such biochemical parameters as SCr, BUN, Ccr, DBP and SBP before and after treatment. Results Compared with those in the control group, the physiological capability and other relevant parameters of QOL in the rehabilitation group were significantly improved after one year of comprehensive rehabilitation, while SBP and DBP significantly decreased. There was no statistically significant changes of the concentrations of Scr, Bun, and Ccr. Conclusion Comprehensive rehabilitation intervention is superior to routine drug therapy in terms of improving the physiological capability, decreasing the BP and improving the QOL of the CRF patients.

10.Effect of electroacupuncture at Lower He-Sea points including Yanglingquan (GB 34) on nuclear factor-κB and interleukin-1β in guinea pigs with acute cholecystitis
Journal of Acupuncture and Tuina Science 2020;18(4):247-255
Objective: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) at Lower He-Sea points on the expression levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in the serum and gallbladder tissues, and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in gallbladder tissues of the guinea pigs with acute cholecystitis (AC), and to explore whether Yanglingquan (GB 34), the Lower He-Sea point pertaining to Dan Fu (gallbladder), is relatively specific for the Dan Fu (gallbladder) disorders. Methods: Eighty-two healthy guinea pigs were randomly divided into 6 groups according to the random number table method, a blank group, a model group, a Yanglingquan (GB 34) group, a Zusanli (ST 36) group, a Shangjuxu (ST 37) group, and a Xiajuxu (ST 39) group, with 12 guinea pigs in the blank group while 14 in the other groups, respectively, half males and half females in each group. Except for the blank group, guinea pigs in the other groups were injected with E. coli into the gallbladder to establish AC models. Guinea pigs in the blank group were fed routinely without special treatment; those in the model group were daily tied up for 30 min without EA treatment; those in the 4 groups receiving EA treatment were acupunctured at the corresponding Lower He-Sea points after daily binding and stimulated with the SDZ-V EA instrument. After successful modeling and treatment for 5 d, blood was collected from the abdominal aorta of the guinea pigs, and the gallbladder tissues in each group were isolated for hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining to observe the morphological changes. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the serum IL-1β level, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to detect the expression levels of NF-κB and IL-1β in gallbladder. Results: On the 3rd day after modeling, the guinea pigs in the five groups with modeling were mentally depressed with decreased appetite, significantly reduced activities, slouch, lassitude, slack and matted fur, and loose stools; two guinea pigs were selected from each group (one male and one female, not included in the final statistics) to isolate the gallbladder after sacrifice; macroscopic observation showed that the gallbladder wall was differently thickened; the bile color was dark green and opaque with particles suspended or accumulated; light microscope observation showed that the submucosal blood vessels of the gallbladder were congested, along with mucosal edema, ulceration, necrosis, shedding, and a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrating in the lamina propria, indicating that the AC model was successfully prepared. Compared with the model group, the gallbladder tissue injuries of the four groups receiving EA treatment were all differently repaired, the serum IL-1β levels were reduced (P<0.01 or P<0.05), and the IL-1β levels in the gallbladder tissues were reduced (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the NF-κB expression level in the Yanglingquan (GB 34) group was significantly reduced (P<0.01), but was not statistical different in the Zusanli (ST 36) group, Shangjuxu (ST 37) group and Xiajuxu (ST 39) group (all P>0.05). Compared with the Yanglingquan (GB 34) group, the gallbladder tissues of the Zusanli (ST 36) group, Shangjuxu (ST 37) group and Xiajuxu (ST 39) group were more severely damaged, and the expression levels of serum IL-1β, the NF-κB and IL-1β in the gallbladder tissues were increased (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Intervention effect of Yanglingquan (GB 34) on AC guinea pigs was superior to that of Zusanli (ST 36), Shangjuxu (ST 37) and Xiajuxu (ST 39). Conclusion: EA at the Lower He-Sea points of the stomach, large intestine, small intestine and gallbladder can produce curative effects on AC guinea pigs and reduced the inflammatory symptoms. Intervention effect of Yanglingquan (GB 34) on AC guinea pigs is superior to that of Zusanli (ST 36), Shangjuxu (ST 37) and Xiajuxu (ST 39). The mechanism of EA at Yanglingquan (GB 34) in treating AC may be regulating IL-1β and NF-κB to control the inflammatory response and improve the gallbladder tissue damage.
