Objective To investigate the nutritional risks, undernutrition, and nutritional support among inpatients in tertiary hospitals in Tianjin using Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS2002). Methods Inpatients in six departments in two tertiary hospitals in Tianjin (Tianjin Nankai Hospital and Tianjin Chest Hospital ) were consecutively enrolled from March 2005 to March 2006. Their nutritional risks were screened using NRS 2002, and the nutritional support was investigated. Results A total of 1200 inpatients received nutritional screening, and 93.0% of them underwent NRS 2002 scoring. The prevalence of undernutrition was 9. 8% and the prevalence of nutritional risk was 42. 8%. Of these patients, 241 patients (46.4%) with NRS2002≥3 received nutrition support, and 244 patients (35.9%) with NRS2002 ＜3 received nutritional support Conclusions NRS2002 is suitable for nutritional risk screening among inpatients. Inpatients usually have nutritional risks or undernutrition. However, physicians at different levels in different regions have different awareness of such risks or conditions, and the clinical application of nutritional supports sometimes are inappropriate.

BACKGROUND:Recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 9 has a high affinity in myocardial tissue, and the expression of recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 9-enhanced green fluorescent protein (rAAV9-eGFP) in the aorta of atherosclerosis mice is not clear. OBJECTIVE:To explore the optimal time point of rAAV9-eGFP expression in the aorta of atherosclerosis mice. METHODS:Atherosclerosis model was established with high-fat diet in 30 ApoE-/-mice for 16 weeks. Among them, 25 mice were injected with 5.0×1011 vg (virus genomes) rAAV9-eGFP through the tail vein, while the remaining 5 mice were injected with saline, serving as the control group. The virus-transfected mice were kil ed at 14, 21, 28, 35 and 60 days after transfection, and aortic tissue was harvested. The expression of enhanced green fluorescent protein was detected with laser scanning confocal microscope. Western blot assays were used to detect the expression of enhanced green fluorescent protein in aorta. The expression of enhanced green fluorescent protein in vivo was observed and the optimal expression time point was determined. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:rAAV9-eGFP effectively transfected the aorta of atherosclerosis mice, enhanced green fluorescent protein was expressed in aortic tissue, and the expression intensity increased gradual y with the increasing transfection time. The highest expression level was found at 35 days after transfection and then maintained stable at 60 days. There were significant differences at different time points after transfection (P<0.001). These data indicate that rAAV9-eGFP can be effectively expressed in the aorta of atherosclerosis ApoE-/-mice and rAAV9-eGFP can be regarded as the optimal vector in the treatment of atherosclerosis.

Objective To observe and study the late effects of intrauterine exposure to irradiation.Methods A 16-year-old girl,borne by a woman exposed to 60Co irradiation during the Xinzhou radiation accident 16 years ago underwent inquiry,general medical examination.Conventional chromosome aberration analysis and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) were used to examine non-stability and stability chromosome aberrations,and China revised Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (C_WISC)was used to detect IQ level.Results Inquiry revealed no history of carcinoma and no family history of hereditary diseases.The girl often caught cold when she was a child,but she hadn' t any other diseases.Menarche occurred when she was 12 years old,and she had not suffered from dysmenorrhea.Her development of body frame constitution was normal.She could not carry out addition and subtraction,but she could make simple verbal communication,writing and even reciting text.The results of the routine lab examination were within the normal range.Unstable chromosome aberrations were not shown,and the chromosome translocation rate was 2.3%.The dose that induced the chromosome injury was deduced as 0.81 Gy.The biological dose of the radiation that she was exposed to was inferred to be 1.85 Gy when she was in ther mother's uterus.Ultrasonic sound showed nodular goiter and no malignant change.China's revised Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (C_WISC) test results showed that speech,operation and full-scale IQ was 51,50,and 46 respectively.The total intelligence was better than 0.01% ,and worse than 99.90% of the population.Conclusions Exposure in utero does not affect the body frame constitution development after birth of the fetus,but mental retardation is clear.No evidence of any tumor can be found for the children exposed to radiation before their birth.

Objective To investigate the late effect of radiation on child-bearing women,through observing "Fang",a 19-week-pregnant woman at age of 23,who was exposed to 60Co radiation in Shanxi Xinzhou radiation accident in November,1992 and diagnosed as moderate bone marrow type acute radiation sickness and recovered after 16 year of follow-up treatment.Methods Clinical data including medical history,physical examination,laboratory data,imaging findings and consulting relevant departments were reviewed.Results The followed-up woman "Fang" often felt weak and caught cold after recovery.When she was 32 years old (9 years after radiation),her hair turned grey,but without hair loss.Her menstrual quantity was lessened since 31 years old (8 years after radiation).She was remarried and pregnant twice in the same year.At the first time she underwent artificial abortion and the second child suffered from intrauterine death after 6 months of pregnancy.The physical examination found bilateral degree Ⅰ thyroid enlargement and sparse armpit hair.The laboratory test showed the increased levels of triiodothyronine,thyroxine and anti-thyroid peroxidase antibody (TMAb) and the decreased thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH).Unstable chromosome aberrations were totally lost and stable aberrations in chromosomes were detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH).The dose estimated with the residue chromosome aberration was 0.76 Gy.Other laboratory results were normal.Ultrasonic test showed diffuse lesion in bilateral thyroid and multiple cystic nodules in right lobe of thyroid,which was considered to be nodular goiter.The examination of bone mineral density (BMD) showed osteoporosis from the second to the fourth lumber vertebra.There were no diseases associated with radiation based on the consultation from related departments.Conclusions Intrauterine death after 6 months of pregnancy might be associated with the previous exposure.There is no evidence of malignant tumor,but non-cancerous diseases are obvious.

Objective To reconstruct the absorbed dose for the individual who was accidentally exposed in uterus 16 years ago.Methods Peripheral blood samples were taken from the victim and her mother.The dicentric and centric ring chromosome aberrations were analyzed with conventional method,the micronucleus was observed with cytokinesis-block micronucleus method,and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with chromosomes 1,2 and 4 painting probes were used for translocation detection.Dose was estimated according to the standard dose-response curves previously established.Results No unstable chromosome aberrations and normal micronucleus frequencies were observed in two persons 16years after the accident.Against the established dose-response curves with FISH,the doses to the mother and her daughter were 0.76 Gy (95% GI 0.41-1.00 Gy) and 0.61 Gy (95% CI 0.44-0.86 Gy),respectively.Because the biological dose estimated for the mother 1 month after the accident was 2.30 Gy (95% CI 2.07-2.50 Gy),the dose correction factor was 3.03 for dose estimation 16 years later.The estimated dose in uterus to the victim was 1.85 Gy (95% CI 1.33-2.61 Gy).Conclusions The estimated dose to the individual accidentally exposed in uterus 16 years ago can be obtained according to the dose correction factor of the mother with FISH method.

BACKGROUND:The formation of atherosclerotic lesions in apolipoprotein E knockout mice is similar to that of human systemic atherosclerosis, and apolipoprotein E knockout mice are ideal animals for current establishment of atherosclerosis models.
OBJECTIVE:To research the pathological process of atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E knockout mice aged different weeks, and to explore the effect of different diets on the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E knockout mice.
METHODS:Male apolipoprotein E knockout mice aged 8 weeks old were randomly divided into two groups, and fed with high fat diet and normal diet, respectively, for 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 weeks.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Serological detection revealed that serum total cholesterol, triglycerides and low density lipoprotein levels were significantly higher in different weeks of mice of high fat diet group than in the normal diet group (P<0.05), in a time-dependent manner. Gross and frozen oil red O staining showed that atherosclerotic plaque area of lumen was significantly larger in the high fat diet group than in the normal diet group (P<0.05), in a time-dependent manner. At this time, significant differences in plaque area of lumen at each week were detected between both groups (P<0.05). Apparent lipid plaque was visible in aorta at 16 weeks of high fat diet in mice. Results demonstrated that apolipoprotein E knockout mice of atherosclerosis were successful y established. The formation of lipid streaks and fiber hyperplasia was faster in high fat diet group than in the normal diet group.

【Objective】 To investigate the factors influencing the anxiety of college first-time blood donors and the effect of nursing intervention. 【Methods】 A total of 168 college students who participated in voluntary blood donation for the first time in a university in Chengde from April to May 2020 were scored using Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) to analyze the influencing factors of anxiety among first-time college donors.They were randomly divided into control group (just routine blood collection) and observation group (nursing intervention was performed on first-time blood donors before, during and after blood collection) to compare the HAMA scores and incidence of adverse reactions to blood donation between the two groups before and after nursing intervention. 【Results】 Among the 168 college students, the incidence of anxiety was 61.9%(104/168), and the influencing factors included gender, knowledge of blood donation and blood donation knowledge received before blood donation.After nursing intervention, HAMA score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions was 15.48% (13/84)in the control group, higher than 8.33%(7/84)in the observation group (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 For first-time blood donation, college donors female, lack of blood donation knowledge, with few health knowledge before blood donation were prone to anxiety in blood donation.Effective nursing intervention during blood donation can help alleviate anxiety and reduce the incidence of adverse reactions to blood donation.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of sevoflurane on cytosolic phospholipase A₂ (C-PLA₂) and clara cell secretory protein (CCSP) in lung tissues of rabbits with one-lung ventilation (OLV)-induced lung injuries.

METHODSThirty-six healthy Japanese white rabbits were randomized into sham-operated group, OLV group, and OLV plus sevoflurane group subdivided into 4 subgroups with sevoflurane concentrations of 1%, 2%, 3% and 4%. CCSP and C-PLA₂ mRNA and protein expressions in rabbit lung tissues were detected by Western blotting and real-time PCR, and the content of arachidonic acid (AA) was measured using ELISA. The severities of the lung injury were evaluated according to lung wet/dry weight (W/D) ratio and histological scores.

RESULTSIn the OLV group and OLV+ sevoflurane groups, pulmonary CCSP expressions were significantly lower, while C-PLA₂ expression, lung W/D ratios and lung histological scores were significantly higher than those in the sham-operated group (P<0.05). Compared with OLV group, the OLV+sevoflurane groups showed significantly increased expressions of CCSP and reduced C-PLA₂ expression, lung W/D ratios and histological scores (P<0.05). In the 4 OLV+sevoflurane groups, CCSP expressions underwent no significant changes as sevoflurane concentration increased, but C-PLA₂ expressions, lung W/D ratios and histological scores all decreased gradually as the concentrations of sevoflurane increased (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONOLV can result in down-regulated CCSP expressions and up-regulated C-PLA₂ expressions in rabbit lung tissues. Sevoflurane can protect against OLV-induced acute lung injury possibly by inhibiting C-PLA₂ expression via up-regulation of CCSP expressions or through other mechanisms resulting in down-regulated expression of C-PLA₂.
