This paper proposed a mobile vital-signs monitoring system based on ZigBee localization and wireless transmission technology for the elderly in nursing home. The system can monitor the vital-signs (pulse, ECG and blood oxygen), localize human body and warn in emergency. The validity and accuracy of this system were testified by the experiments of mobile acquisition and storage of pulse. In these experiments, the measurement of pulse ranged from 50 to 170 time a minute, the mean error of which was less than 3%. The mean error of localizing was less than 4 m. And the data transmission rate was 250 kbps. The system, which effectively conducts the real-time monitoring of the health and safety situation for the elderly, has a great significance for protecting the elderly's life safety.

Objective:To virtual screen the active ingredient of Shenmai injection in treatment of Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia and discuss the potential mechanism based on network pharmacology and high throughput molecular docking. Methods:Based on network pharmacology and high-throughput molecular docking technology, the compounds and predicted targets of Shenmai injection were retrieved from TCMSP, BATMAN-TCM and Targetnet databases, and the composition target map was constructed. The genes related to coronavirus pneumonia were retrieved from OMIM and GeneCards databases, and the PPI network between target genes was constructed by searching the common parts of target genes; David 6.8 was used to analyze gene function and pathway enrichment, and PDB database was used to obtain protein crystal structure, and Autodock Vina and python scripts were used for high-throughput molecular docking. Results:A total of 27 compounds and 224 target genes were obtained. 15 core components and 15 core targets for the treatment of coronavirus pneumonia were identified: CASP3, NOS2, PARP1, CASP8, NOS3, BCL2, ADA, OPRM1, TGFB1, TLR9, ACHE, SLC29A1, BAX, ADK, and PNP. The enrichment analysis showed that the core targets acted on the signaling pathways such as Tuberculosis, Pathways in cancer, Hepatitis B and Apoptosis. The better components of Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia related targets were diosgenin, stigmasterol, beta-sitosterol and ginsenoside Rh1_qt obtained by virtual screening.Conclusion:This study screened out the active ingredient and tarket of Shenmai Injection in treatment of Novel Coronavirus Pneumonia. It laid a foundation for the further clinical application of Shenmai injection and development of novel coronavirus pneumonia drugs.

Objective To investigate the assessment of multi-detector spiral CT on the cardiac function after bioprosthetic valve replacement with mitral valve preservation.Methods Thirty-five patients suitable for undergoing bioprosthetic mitral valve replacement in our hospital from May 2012 to February 2014 were randomly divided into 2 groups:group A(experimental group,intraoperative preservation of mitral valve and subvalvular structure during,n=16) and group B (control group,without intraoperative preservation of subvalvular structure of mitral valve,n=19).MDCT before operation and on postoperative 10 d was performed for evaluating the left ventricular function.Results In the comparison of preoperative MDCT,the end diastolic velocity(EDV),end systolic velocity(ESV),ejection fraction(EF) and stroke volume(SV) had no statistical difference between the group A and B.In MDCT results on postoperative 10 d,EDV,ESV and EF in the group A were 113.42±9.22)mL,(38.63±3.40)mL and (51.63±4.71) ％,which in the group B were(113.42 ± 9.22) mL,(38.63 ± 3.40) mL and (51.63 ± 4.71) ％ respectively,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05),but SV had no statistical difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion The bioprosthetic valve replacement with mitral valve preservation is safe and feasible in technology,moreover effectively protects the postoperative left ventricular function.

Objective:To construct the lentiviral vector over-expressing Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin C3 and detect the expression of target gene in vitro.Methods:SEC3 gene were amplificatied by polymerase chain rcaction( PCR).The GV365 lentiviral vectors were digested by AgeⅠenzyme,which was linked to SEC3 gene and then constructed the GV365-SEC3 lentiviral vetor.Positive clones of vectors were identificd by PCR.Then the positive lentiviral vectors were transfected into 293T cells for lentivirus package.The expression of lentiviral vectors was tested by observating cell fluorescence and Western blot.The virus titer was determined by HIV-1 p24 ELISA.Results: SEC3 gene was amplified and successfully bound to the GV365 lentivirus vectors.The sequences of the recombinant plasmid were confirmed correct by PCR and DNA scqucncing.A large mass of green fluorescent cells were observed after transfecting.And the resulting size of 29 kD protein band of protein electrophoresis, which was consistent with the target gene protein.Viral vector titer was 5×108 TU/ml by ELISA detection.Conclusion: Lentiviral vector over-expressing Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin C3 was successfully constructed,laid the foundation of observing its effect and mechanism against to tumor in vivo and in vitro for later research.

Objective:With network pharmacology, this paper aims to explore the potential active constituents, related targets and signal pathways to elucidate the mechanism of Calyx seu Fructus Physalis in the treatment of lung cancer. Methods:By searching for Pharmacology Database of Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems and Analysis Platform (TCMSP) to obtain the active constituents of Calyx seu Fructus Physalis, and predict the target genes of active constituents by using SWISS and SEA. By collecting the corresponding targets approved by FDA and search for different database, including Therapeutic Target Database (TTD), Database of Gene-disease Associations (DisGeNET) and Online Mendelian Inheritance in OMIM to build a database of lung cancer related target genes; To get the target genes of herb-disease proteins by the intersection of the two databases and display the results through the network software of Cytoscape 3.7.2.

Objective Big endothelin-1(big ET-1) is associated with the prognosis of various cardiovascular diseases. This study is to explore the predictive value of plasma big ET-1 level for long-term outcome after mitral valvuloplasty in patients with moderate to severe chronic ischemic mitral insufficiency .Methods A total of 142 consecutive patients with moderate to severe chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting and mitral valvuloplasty were enrolled at our center from January 2009 to December 2015.The clinical baseline data were collected and recorded.All patients were followed up.The mortalities and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events during the follow-up period were re-corded.Results A total of 142 patients were enrolled, with mean age of(59.4 ±8.3) years.During(51.9 ±22.6) months follow-up, 19 cases(13.4％) died and 35 cases(24.6％) had major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events.Uni-variate and multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that big ET-1 was an independent risk factor for all-cause mortality (HR=3.970, 95％CI:1.535-10.268) and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events(HR=2.754, 95％CI:1.238-6.129).In addition, left ventricular ejection fraction, pulmonary hypertension and stroke history were independent risk factors for all-cause mortality , while left ventricular ejection fraction , stroke history were independent risk factors for major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events.Conclusion Long-term outcomes of simultaneous coronary artery bypass grafting and mitral valvuloplasty for moderate to severe ischemic mitral insufficiency are satisfactory and big ET-1 is an inde-pendent risk factor for long-term outcomes of these patients.
