Methods McClelland's Competency Dictionary was used to set two benchmark positions, while the behavioral event interviewing and questionnaires were made to survey 19 community health service centers in Shanghai. Results The competency model benchmarking on the head of a medical branch consists of 6 character clusters, 11 characteristic items, 27 evaluation dimensions and 27 typical behavior descriptions. The model benchmarking on the community team leader consists of 5 character clusters, 8 characteristic items, 21 evaluation dimensions and 21 typical behavior descriptions. Conclusion Findings of the survey provide objective criteria for competence appraisal of community health administrators, and serve as reference for formulating their development plans as well.

Objective To evaluate the early diagnostic values of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell-1 (sTREM-1) in patients with ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP).Methods A total of 112 clinical suspicion VAP ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) patients accepted from January 2008 through December 2010 were enrolled for prospective and observational study.Two independent intensivists without aware of the results of the sTREM-1 assay separately made diagnosis of VAP present or absent depending on the clinical symptoms and results of microbial culture.Patients were categorized into two groups:VAP group (n =74) and non-VAP group (n =38).The levels of sTREM-1 in broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) collected with Gibot method in unemployment of bronchoscope and in serum were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) on the first day of suspected diagnosis.Comparison of sTREM-1 level between BALF and serum was made by t-test and Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve.Results A total of 112 clinical suspicion VAP patients admitted from January 2008 through December 2010 were enrolled for prospective and observational study.Two independent intensivists without aware of the results of the sTREM-1 assay made diagnosis of VAP present or absent depending on the clinical symptoms and results of microbial culture.Patients were categorized into two groups:VAP group (n =74) and non-VAP group (n =38).The levels of sTREM-1 in broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) collected with Gibot method in unemployment of bronchoscope and in serum were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) on the first day of suspected diagnosis.Comparison of sTREM-1 level between BALF and serum was made by t-test and Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve.Conlclusions In suspected VAP patients,measurement of sTREM-1 levels in BALF and in serum could help identify VAP in early stage.

The benefits of early enteral nutrition (EEN) during critical illness have been widely accepted by global experts. To popularize this new concept and provide standardized, reasonable and effective EEN therapy for critically ill patients in China, more than 20 experts from throughout the country discussed and developed this consensus. We used the GRADE approach for consensus development, focusing on important clinical issues such as nutrition assessment, initiating mode, route selection and tolerance monitoring of EEN support therapy for current critically ill patients. This consensus would be certainly help for intensive care physicians in the clinical application of EEN support therapy for critically ill patients.

Purpose To investigate the effects of chemotactic factor CCR4 on the abi1ity of pro1iferation,ce11 cyc1e,invasion,and mi-gration of human ga11b1adder cancer ce11. Methods Western b1ot was used to detect the expression 1eve1 of CCR4 in ga11b1adder carci-noma ce11s. Ga11b1adder carcinoma ce11s was infected by means of s1ow virus,the CCR4 gene si1encing was conducted using siRNA-CCR4 interference techno1ogy. Ga11b1adder carcinoma ce11s GBC-SD were divided into three groups( GBC-SD,GBC-SD/CCR4-RNAi and GBC-SD/contro1). CCL17,a 1igand of CCR4,was used to act on these three groups of ce11s. CCK8 method was used to detect the ce11 pro1iferation abi1ity of three groups. F1ow cytometry was used to test ce11 cyc1e. Tanswe11 assay was app1ied to detect ce11 migration and invasion abi1ity. Western b1ot was performed to detect the expression of its corresponding 1igands CCL17 and CCL22 proteins. Re-sults CCR4 gene si1ence did not inf1uence ce11 cyc1e and pro1iferation of ga11b1adder ce11 GBC-SD,but can significant1y inhibit GBC-SD ce11 invasion and movement abi1ity,CCR4 gene si1ence had no inf1uence on the expression of CCL17 and CCL22 gene in tumor ce11s. Conclusion Ga11b1adder carcinoma ce11s GBC-SD express chemokine receptor CCR4,chemokine receptor CCR4 can promote the invasion and metastasis of GBC-SD ce11s.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum phosphorus variability and mortality in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Methods A total of 502 MHD cases from Renji hospital hemodialysis center were registered in Shanghai Registry Network from January 2007 to April 2015. They were recruited with general information, laboratory results and outcomes. According to their median of coefficient of variation (CV) of blood phosphorus, the patients were divided into high variation group (CV≥0.226 mmol/L) and low variation group (CV<0.226 mmol/L). The relationship of serum phosphorus CV with all?cause mortality and cardiovascular disease mortality was assessed respectively. Results The average age was (63.9±14.6) years, the median dialysis age was 82.0 (43.0, 139.0) months, 118 patients (23.5%) died for all cause and 64 patients (12.7%) died for cardiovascular disease. Compared with patients in low phosphorus variation group, patients had a higher all?cause mortality in high phosphorus variation group (27.7% vs 19.3%, P=0.028). Higher cardiovascular disease mortality was observed in high variation group as well, but this difference was no statistical significant (15.4% vs 10.0%, P=0.082). COX regression analysis showed that >60 years of age (HR=2.762, 95%CI 1.707?4.468, P<0.001), low hemoglobin (HR=0.466, 95%CI 0.317?0.686, P<0.001), low albumin (HR=0.555, 95%CI 0.366?0.840, P=0.005), high CV of phosphorus (HR=1.479, 95%CI 1.023 ? 2.139, P=0.037) were independent risk factors for all ? cause mortality. Moreover, >60 years of age (HR=2.666, 95%CI 1.469?4.837, P=0.001), low hemoglobin (HR=0.480, 95%CI 0.238?0.801, P=0.005), and high CV of phosphorus (HR=1.655, 95%CI 1.003?2.729, P=0.049) were independent risk factors for cardiovascular disease mortality. There was no significant statistical difference between patients phosphorus on target and patients phosphorus below target in all?cause disease mortality (P=0.065) and cardiovascular disease mortality (P=0.425). High variation group whose phosphorus on target had higher all?cause mortality and cardiovascular disease mortality than those in low variation group (29.2% vs 16.9%, P=0.047; 15.0% vs 6.0%, P=0.033). Kaplan?Meier method showed that patients with high phosphorus variation had higher all?cause (P=0.023) and cardiovascular disease mortality (P=0.047) than patients with low phosphorus variation. Conclusions The high CV of phosphorus is independently correlated with all?cause and cardiovascular disease mortality. Patients with standard ? reaching phosphorus in the low variation group have a lower mortality. A serum phosphorus level sustainably reaching the standard may improve the survival in MHD patients.

Objective:To investigate the role of LncRNA-TUG1 in the injury of intestinal epithelial cells induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS).Methods:LPS was used to treat HIEC-6 human intestinal epithelial cells for 24 h to construct a sepsis injury model. Whole transcriptome RNA sequencing was used to analyze the expression changes of mRNA, microRNA and lncRNA in HIEC-6 cells after LPS treatment. Real-time fluorescence quantitative (qRT-PCR) and Western blot was performed to detect the expression changes of lncRNA-TUG1, microRNA-132-3p (miR-132-3p), SIRT1 mRNA and SIRT1 protein in HIEC-6 cells after LPS treatment. The expression levels of LncRNA-TUG1, miR-132-3p and SIRT1 were artificially changed by in vitro transfection. qRT-PCR and Western blot were used to confirm the regulatory effect of lncRNA-TUG1 on microRNA-132-3p and SIRT1. CCK-8 and flow cytometry were used to analyze the effects of LncRNA-TUG1, miR-132-3p and SIRT1 on the proliferation and apoptosis of HIEC-6 cells. The dual luciferase report analysis was used to verify the targeting relationship between LncRNA-TUG1, miR-132-3p and SIRT1. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 17.0, and differences between the two groups were compared using independent sample t test. Results:RNA sequencing results showed that the expressions of lncRNA-TUG1 and SIRT1 were decreased in HIEC-6 cells after LPS treatment ( t=3.26, P<0.05 and t=2.55, P<0.05), but the expression of miR-132-3p was increased ( t=4.12, P<0.05). In vitro cell experiments, the expression of lncRNA-TUG1 and SIRT1 were decreased in HIEC-6 cells treated with LPS ( t=5.69, P<0.05 and t=5.712, P<0.05), while the expression of miR-132-3p was increased ( t=3.88, P<0.05). Overexpression of lncRNA-TUG1 increased the proliferation rate ( t=6.55, P<0.05) and decreased the apoptosis rate ( t=3.94, P<0.05) of LPS-treated cells. Upregulation of lncRNA-TUG1 decreased the expression of miR-132-3p ( t=4.66, P<0.05), and increased the mRNA and protein levels of SIRT1 ( t=3.91, P<0.05). Transfection of miR-132-3P mimic could inhibit the mRNA ( t=4.08, P<0.05) and protein levels of SIRT1. In LPS-treated cells, the cells co-transfected with miR-132-3pmimic and siRNA-SIRT1 had a lower proliferation rate ( t=4.55, P<0.05 and t=5.67, P<0.05) and a higher apoptosis rate ( t=3.90, P<0.05 and t=4.22, P<0.05) than those transfected with only pcDNA3.1-lncRNA-TUG. Conclusions:lncRNA-TUG1 may act as a ceRNA to regulate miR-132-3p/SIRT1, therefore alleviating HIEC-6 cell injury caused by LPS. Intervention of lncRNA-TUG1/miR-132-3p/SIRT1 regulatory pathway may become a potential strategy to prevent sepsis-induced intestinal mucosal damage.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the influence of electrotome on permanent and temporary cardiac pacemaker in laparoscopic cholecystectomy ( LC),and the application of cardiac pacemaker to the cases of cholecystolithiasis combined with bradyarrhythmia.MethodsClinical data of 215 patients with permanent or temporary cardiac pacemaker who underwent were studied for the preoperative and postoperative variation of pacemaker function,and for the influence of electricity coagulation during the operation on cardiac pacemaker function.ResultsLC was successfully completed in all 215 patients.The function of cardiac pacemaker was not obviously interfered during the operation,and the parameters of cardiac pacemaker did not remarkably change after the operation.ConclusionCardiac pacemaker is slightly interfered when electrotome and electrocoagulation were used in LC; LC is feasible and safe for patients with bradyarrhythmia by placement of cardiac pacemaker.

Objective To validate the effect of Renji acute kidney injury score (RAKIS) on predicting patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgeries,and make comparison with Cleveland score,simplified renal index (SRI) and acute kidney injury following cardiac surgery (AKICS).Methods Patients undergoing open heart surgery from 2008/01/01 to 2010/10/31 in Renji hospital were enrolled,and their scores of those four scoring models were calculated.AKI patients were diagnosed by KDIGO,and those scores of AKI patients and non-AKI patients were compared.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under curve (AUC) were used to decide the predictive values of those models.Results A total of 1126 patients were chosen in this cohort,with the average age of (58.43±14.88) years (rang from 18 to 88).The male to female ratio was 1.47:1.And 355(31.5％) patients were developed AKI.AKI stage Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ were 65.4％,23.7％ and 11.0％ respectively.RAKIS was significantly higher in AKI patients than in non-AKI patients (17.5 vs 9.0,P ＜ 0.001).The AUCs of RAKIS to predict AKI,AKI Ⅱ-Ⅲ stages,renal replacement therapy (RRT)and in-hospital death were 0.818,0.819,0.800 and 0.784 respectively.The AUCs of Cleveland score and SRI were 0.659 to 0.710,lower than those of RAKIS and AKICS.AKICS had lower value for predicting AKI and AKI Ⅱ-Ⅲ stages (AUC 0.766 and 0.793),but good value in predicting RRT and inhospital death after surgery (AUC 0.804 and 0.835) as compared with RAKIS.Conclusions RAKIS is valid and accurate in the discrimination of KDIGO defined AKI patients,while for predicting the composite end point,AKICS may be more useful.
