Objectives To study the effect of ubiquitin proteasome inhibitor bortezomib on apoptosis and Caspase-3 expression in human umbilical arterial vascular smooth muscle cells. Methods Human umbilical artery vascular smooth muscle cells were cultured in vitro. Different doses of bortezomib (0, 4, 10, 40nmol/L) were used to treat cell. Cell proliferation activity were detected by using CCK8 method. Western Blot assay was used to measure the expression of Pro-caspase-3 and Cleaved-PARP protein. Morphology of cells in different groups are observed by confocal microscopy and apoptosis rate were detected by flow cytometry analysis. Results Bortezomib inhibits proliferation activity of vascular smooth muscle cells. With increasing of drug concentration and treating time, cell viability are reduced (P < 0.01). Cells treated with different concentrations bortezomib for 48 h showed increased apoptosis rate (P < 0.01), decreased pro-caspase-3 protein expression and increased cleaved-PARP protein expression (P < 0.01). Laser confocal microscope found that with the increase of drug concentration, the number of apoptotic cells showed an upward trend under per high-power vision. Conclusion The ubiquitin proteasome inhibitor bortezomib may decrease the expression of pro-caspase-3 and increase Cleaved-PARP expression in human umbilical artery vascular smooth muscle cells. Additionally , it could induce apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner.

Around the world, the supply of health services faces challenges, especially in developing nations that suffer from inadequate infrastructure and aging equipment, frequent shortages of medicine and supplies, and low capacity and efficiency of primary health care. At present, more and more governments adopt public-private partner-ships to achieve public policy goals. Among those, Brazil, South Africa, and India have made greater achievements in changing the roles of local government, increasing the supply of primary health care and health care quality, pro-moting health care equality, meeting the needs of multi-level medical services, and promoting health capabilities by using public-private partnerships. This paper provides an overview of public-private partnership practices in the three countries, discusses their reform experiences, and concludes with implications which may be helpful for promoting and scaling up PPP in primary health care in China.

By the approach of self-assembly and electropolymerization, membrane for Bisphenol A (BPA) has been synthesized with bisphenol A as template molecule, o-aminothiophenol as functional monomer. Based on which, an electrochemical sensor was constructed and its response to BPA was evaluated by cyclic voltammetry. The peak current intensity was linear to Bisphenol A in the range of 6.0×10-7-5.5×10-5 mol/L with a detection limit of 2.0×10-7 mol/L and the RSD <5%(n=9). The response time of stable current was about 2 min. The proposed sensor exhibits good selectivity, reproducibility and stability. The AC impedance technology and chronoamperometry were employed to study the electrochemical characteristic of the membrane. The sensor was successfully applied to the determination of BPA in several samples.

Objective To evaluate the value of MSCT perfusion imaging in assessment of single renal function of hydronephrotic kidney.Methods 64-slice spiral CT perfusion was performed in 36 obstructive nephrohydrosis patients whose split renal glomerular filtration rate(GFR) was measured by SPECT renal dynamic imaging. ①The perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and renal medulla of the hydronephrotic kidney were compared with the normal kidney studied by contrast group. ②The 72 kidneys were divided into normal renal function, mild and severe renal impairment groups according to renal function. Differences between the groups respect to all the mean perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and renal medulla were assesses by ANOVA. ③Using Pearsons correlation test, the correlations between all the mean perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and renal medulla and renal GFR were examined.Results ① The time-density curves of bilateral normal renal cortex and medulla were not symmetric. The mean BF, BV, PS, PBV of renal cortex were (203. 2±44.9)ml·100 ml~(-1)·min~(-1), (27.6±3.9)ml/100 ml, (30.7±6.5)ml·100 ml~(-1)· min~(-1), (46.5±10. 9)ml/100 ml; and the mean BF, BV, PS, PBV of renal medulla were (99.9±24.1)ml·100 ml~(-1)·min~(-1) ,(18. 3±4.3)ml/100 ml, (51.8±12.1)ml · 100 ml~(-1)· min~(-1) , (21.3±3.0)ml/100 ml. The mean perfusion parameters of the cortex and medulla of obstructed kidney were lower compared to that of normal kidney. ②There were significant differences of all the perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and me-dulla between 3 groups (P<0. 05). ③The perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and medulla had positive linear correlation with GFR. The best correlation was the blood flow of the cortex of kidney. The correlation coefficient r=0.852.Conclusions64-slice spiral CT perfusion imaging can quantita-tively evaluate the haemodynamic condition and functional lesion of the kidney, classify the impaired kidney function. The perfusion parameters of the renal cortex and medulla had positive linear correlation with GFR.

Objective To study the clinical significance for the establishment of diagnosis of small bowel obstruction by selective small bowel enterography through a nasointestinal decompression tube. Methods Tirty-five patients with small bowel obstruction, with no strangulation or other contraindications, were intubated with a 300 cm nasointestinal decompression tube till upper jejunum under X-ray monitoring. The patients firstly underwent intra-small-intestinal suction therapy. When the tube reached the diseased region, a selective small bowel enterography was performed. Under X-ray inspection, 20-100 ml of 76% meglumine diatrizoatis and 50-200 ml of air were slowly injected via the decompression tube to perform double contrast intestinal radiography. Results Intubation was successful in all the 35 patients. Mter the small intestinal decompression therapy. Obstruction was cured in 20 cases, alleviated in 15 cases, and 10 cases received operation. Small bowel enterography in this series was all of high quality, there were 6 cases in which no abnormal X-ray findings, adhesive small bowel obstruction was suggested in 15 cases, small bowel tumor was identified in 4 cases (3 metastatic tumor, 1 small bowel cancer), small bowel Crohn's disease in 3 cases, radioactive enteritis in 3 cases, enteric intussusception in 2, polyp of the small intestine in one, and carcinoma of the ascending colon in one. Conclusions The nasointestinal decompression intubation with X-ray monitoring serves a dual function for the patients with intestinal obstruction, it decompresses the small bowel and does small intestinal radiography, in this way the locale of obstruction was found and the cause of the obstruction identified.
