1.Features and Implications of Fund-raising Activities Initiated by University Presidents during the Period of Republic of China——Take the Nankai University,Yanjing University and Southeast University for example
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2006;0(08):-
During the period of Republic of China,the presidents of Nankai,Yanjing,and Southeast Universities raised funds actively from society under the condition of the shortage of the Government funding.The fund-raising was considered to be the most important activities in all of the work in three universities.They got enormous donations from the society and made a great success to the university.Today,university presidents still face the problem of lacking money.However,they attribute it mainly to the lacking financial supporting from the government.The fund-raising behaviors of the former presidents may give us some good inspirations for our modern university developments.

Aim: To determine the uptake characteristics of salvianolic acid B(Sal B) in myocardial cells and blood vessel endothelial cells. Method: The effects of various factors, such as time, temperature, drug concentration, pH of the medium, on the uptake of Sal B in myocardial cells and aorta endothelial cells were investigated. LC/MS was employed to determine the intracellular concentration of Sal B. Results: Uptake kinetics of Sal B in the myocardial cells and aorta endothelial cells fitted well to the logarithmic model at 37 ℃ and 4 ℃. The a-mount of uptake was in direct proportion to the extracellular concentration of Sal B in the experimental concentration range. Uptake of Sal B both in the myocardial cells and blood vessel endothelial cells would significantly increase while the medium pH decreased, and some water-soluble components extracted from danshen would also facilitate the uptake of Sal B both in the myocardial cells and blood vessel endothelial cells obviously. The energy metabolism inhibitors would significantly inhibit the uptake of Sal B in the myocardial cells and blood vessel endothelial cells. When lactic acid and fatty acid were added to the incubation solution, the uptake of Sal B both in the myocardial cells and aorta endothelial cells increased more than 20%. Conclusion: pH is the most important factor influencing the cellular uptake of Sal B, and the amount of uptake tends to increase in acidic medium. Results suggest that the uptake of Sal B would increase in the acidified internal environment induced by myocardial ischemia, thus exerting better cardiovascular activities.

Objective:To search, evaluate and integrate the best evidence for alleviating intraoperative pain in patients undergoing local anesthesia, so as to provide a basis for formulating intraoperative pain control plan for patients undergoing local anesthesia.Methods:Evidence-based questions were built based on the PICO model. BMJ Best Practice, UpToDate, US Guidelines, National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence, Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network, Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-based Health Care Center, Cochrane Library, MedlinePlus, PubMed, CINAHL, Medlive, CNKI and Wanfang Database were searched for guidelines, expert consensus, evidence summary, systematic review and other evidence on alleviating intraoperative pain in patients undergoing local anesthesia. The search time was from the establishment of the database to March 30, 2020. Two researchers with evidence-based nursing knowledge independently evaluated the quality of the literature and the level of evidence.Results:A total of 7 articles were included, including 1 guideline, 1 clinical decision and 5 systematic reviews. The 16 best evidences were summarized from 5 aspects, such as preoperative evaluation, pain recognition, intraoperative pain intervention measures, surgical pain evaluation and health education.Conclusions:This study summarizes the current best evidence for reducing the pain during local anesthesia in patients undergoing local anesthesia and provides evidence-based evidence for the selection of intraoperative pain control programs for local anesthesia in related departments.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of entecavir (ETV) versus tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF) on renal function in previously untreated patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 167 previously untreated CHB patients who received ETV or TAF treatment for at least 48 weeks at the outpatient service of Department of Infectious Diseases in The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from September 2019 to November 2023, and according to the antiviral drug used, they were divided into ETV group with 117 patients and TAF group with 50 patients. In order to balance baseline clinical data, propensity score matching (PSM) was used for matching and analysis at a ratio of 2∶1, and the two groups were compared in terms of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and the incidence rate of abnormal renal function at week 48. According to eGFR at week 48, the patients were divided into normal renal function group and abnormal renal function group. The independent-samples t test or the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors for abnormal renal function, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the performance of each indicator in predicting abnormal renal function. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the cumulative incidence rate of abnormal renal function, and the log-rank test was used for comparison. The analysis of variance with repeated measures was used to compare the dynamic changes of eGFR during antiviral therapy in CHB patients. ResultsAfter PSM matching, there were 100 patients in the ETV group and 50 patients in the TAF group. There were no significant differences in baseline clinical data between the ETV group and the TAF group (all P>0.05), with an eGFR level of 112.29±9.92 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the ETV group and 114.72±12.15 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the TAF group. There was a reduction in eGFR from baseline to week 48 in both groups, and compared with the TAF group at week 48, the ETV group had a significantly lower eGFR (106.42±14.12 mL/min/1.73 m2 vs 112.25±13.44 mL/min/1.73 m2, t=-2.422, P=0.017) and a significantly higher incidence rate of abnormal renal function (17.00% vs 4.00%, χ2=5.092, P=0.024). After the patients were divided into normal renal function group with 131 patients and abnormal renal function group with 19 patients, the univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences between the two groups in age (Z=-2.039, P=0.041), treatment drug (ETV/TAF) (χ2=5.092, P=0.024), and baseline eGFR level (t=4.023, P<0.001), and the multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that baseline eGFR (odds ratio [OR]=0.896, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.841 — 0.955, P<0.001) and treatment drug (OR=5.589, 95%CI: 1.136 — 27.492, P=0.034) were independent influencing factors for abnormal renal function. Baseline eGFR had an area under the ROC curve of 0.781 in predicting abnormal renal function in CHB patients, with a cut-off value of 105.24 mL/min/1.73 m2, a sensitivity of 73.68%, and a specificity of 82.44%. The Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed that the patients with baseline eGFR≤105.24 mL/min/1.73 m2 had a significantly higher cumulative incidence rate of abnormal renal function than those with baseline eGFR>105.24 mL/min/1.73 m2 (χ2=22.330, P<0.001), and the ETV group had a significantly higher cumulative incidence rate of abnormal renal function than the TAF group (χ2=4.961, P=0.026). With the initiation of antiviral therapy, both the ETV group and the TAF group had a significant reduction in eGFR (F=5.259, P<0.001), but the ETV group only had a significant lower level of eGFR than the TAF group at week 48 (t=-2.422, P=0.017); both the baseline eGFR≤105.24 mL/min/1.73 m2 group and the baseline eGFR>105.24 mL/min/1.73 m2 group had a significant reduction in eGFR (F=5.712, P<0.001), and there was a significant difference in eGFR between the two groups at baseline and weeks 12, 24, 36, and 48 (t=-13.927, -9.780, -8.835, -9.489, and -8.953, all P<0.001). ConclusionFor CHB patients initially treated with ETV or TAF, ETV antiviral therapy has a higher risk of renal injury than TAF therapy at week 48.
