Objective:To evaluate the effects of stellate ganglion block (SGB) on the activation of M1 microglia during cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods:Fifty-four SPF healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8-10 weeks, weighing 240-270 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=18 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (group Sham), cerebral I/R group (group IR) and SGB group.Blood vessels were only exposed, without occlusion in group Sham.Cerebral I/R was induced by occlusion of the middle cerebral artery for 90 min followed by reperfusion in group IR.Cervical sympathetic trunk transaction was performed to induce left SGB immediately after onset of reperfusion in group SGB.Blood samples were collected from the apex of the heart at 6, 12 and 24 h of reperfusion for determination of the concentrations of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-1β in the serum (using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). The animals were sacrificed after the neurological function was evaluated at 24 of reperfusion, and brain tissues were removed for microscopic examination of the pathological changes in cortex, for determination of percentage of cerebral infarct size (by TTC staining), for assessment of cell apoptosis and apoptosis rate in cortex (by TUNEL), and for determination of the expression of microglial biomarker Iba-1 and activated M1 microglia biomarker CD68 (by Western blot). Results:Compared with group Sham, the neurological function score, percentage cerebral infarct size, apoptosis rate in cortex, concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in the serum, and the expression of Iba-1 and CD68 were significantly increased in IR and SGB groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group IR, the neurological function score, percentage cerebral infarct size, apoptosis rate in cortex, concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in the serum, and the expression of Iba-1 and CD68 were significantly decreased in group SGB ( P<0.05), and the pathological changes of brain tissues were significantly attenuated in group SGB. Conclusion:The mechanism by which SGB reduces cerebral I/R injury is related to inhibiting activation of M1 microglia in rats.

Objective Analyze the causes of ambiguous medical records to provide evidence for the DRGs.Methods 268 Ambiguous medical records were selected from 17 751 surgery medical records between 2010 and 2014 based on major diagnosis and major surgery.The single factor Chi-square test was used to study the influence of various inpatient characteristics on the occurrence of ambiguous medical records, and those significant variables were given assignment to find influencing factors of ambiguous medical records by using logistic regression analysis.Results Ambiguous medical records account for 1.51％ of all surgical medical records.Logistic regression analysis results show that such risk factors as discharging from internal medicine, death of patient, transfer between departments, elderly, long time of hospitalization, and tumor patients, as contributing to ambiguous medical records.All the results are statistically significant (P＜0.05), including discharging from which departments (OR=6.595, 95％CI..5.043 ～ 8.625), death of patient (OR=3.787, 95％ CI: 2.611 ～ 5.492) and transfer between departments (OR =2.746, 95％ CI: 2.061 ～ 3.659), which rank important risk factors for ambiguous medical records.Conclusion Analysis of the causes of ambiguous medical records provides important evidences for the hospital to improve its medical record quality management.

Objective To explore feasibility of the Chinese version of MoCA for the detection of vascular cognitive impairment-no dementia (VaCIND) and control in a cross-sectional study. Methods One hundred and three Chinese Han were assessed by the MoCA and MMSE. 64 met criteria for VaCIND and 39 were considered cognitively normal. Sensitivities and specificities were calculated using the recommended cut-off scores,and ROC curve analyses were performed to determine optimal sensitivity and specificity. Results No differences were found between groups on age,gender,education degrees. According to their MoCA scores,cognitive impairments including memory,visuospatial, executive function, attention, language, and orientation sub-scores in VaCIND ((0.44 ± 0.96), (2.13 ±1.40), (1.90 ±1.02), (4.61 ±1.41), (4.23 ±1.40), (5.38 ±1.15)) significantly decreased compared with that in controls((2.92 ± 1.42) ,(3.16 ± 1.08) ,(3.32 ± 1.07) ,(5. 87 ±0.41) ,(5.34 ±0.75), (5.79 ±0. 70)) (P<0. 05). The MMSE scale was insensitive to cognitive impairment as compared with MoCA scale. Using cut-off score of 24,the MoCA exhibited excellent sensitivity (0.923) and specificity (0.906). Conclusion MoCA is a more sensitive instrument than the MMSE for the detection of VaCIND and warrants further investigation regarding its applicability in large group and varying ethnic groups.

OBJECTIVEThe biological safety of a new developed silicone rubber for inflatable silastic prosthesis (SRISP) was evaluated.

METHODSFollowing the GB/T 16886.10-2005 standard, YY/T 0127.13-2009 standard, and GB/T 16886.11- 2011 standard, samples were prepared and tested by animal experiments, such as guinea pig maximization test, oral mucous membrane irritation test, and short-term systemic toxicity test (oral route).

RESULTSNo obvious erythema and edema in the guinea pig abdominal skin were observed after 24, 48, and 72 h of stimulating touch, thus indicating that SRISP does not cause potential skin sensitivity. No local response to SRISP was found, and the visual observation and pathological findings of oral mucosa were normal and similar to that of the control group. Therefore, SRISP had no irritation response to oral mucosa. No clinical signs of toxicity were observed in rats, and no significant differences in weight and weight relative growth rate between extract group and blank control group (P > 0.05) were found. Thus, SRISP had no short-term systemic toxicity.

CONCLUSIONThese results indicated that SRISP met the requirement of biomedical materials and had good bio- security.

First-aid stations were divided randomly into 4 groups.Advanced airway for sudden cardiac arrest patients with laryngeal mask airway (LMA) was established in groups A and C while trachea cannula was inserted on spot of emergency medical service (EMS) or in ambulance in groups B and D.According to the results,the success rate of insertion and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) of groups A and C were higher than the other two groups (P ＜ 0.05).However,the required time was shorter (P ＜ 0.05).Due to a difficult catheterization environment,LMA is more effective and convenient than trachea cannula in EMS.

Using the concepts and methods of epigenetics and metabolomics, to investigate the overall action molecular mechanism of Chrysanthemi indici C (CIC), the anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) active extracts from Flos chrysanthemi indici. The inhibitory effects of CIC on proliferation and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B envelope antigen (HBeAg) and HBV-DNA of HepG2.2.15 cells were detected by CCK-8 and antigen kit. The DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs)/ten-eleven-translocation-2 (TET2) equilibrium was detected by ELISA. Illumina 850K methylation chip, pyrosequencing and qPCR were used to determine the action pathway and target of CIC by GO and KEGG analysis. Cell metabolites were extracted with 80% methanol, and the changes of differential metabolites, differential metabolic pathways and cell microenvironment were detected by LC-MS and other metabolomics methods. The results showed that CIC could inhibit the proliferation, HBsAg, HBeAg and HBV-DNA of HepG2.2.15 cells obviously, down-regulate DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1), DNA methyltransferase 3a (DNMT3a) and DNA methyltransferase 3b (DNMT3b), up-regulate TET2, and restore the balance of DNMTs/TET2. The action targets of CIC were phospholipase C gamma 2 (PLCG2), phosphoinositide-3-kinase regulatory subunit 3 (PIK3R3), 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase 2 (AGPAT2), 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 2B (HTR2B), nerve growth factor (NGF), mainly involved in lipid metabolism, inflammation mediated regulation of transient receptor potential (TRP), phospholipase D signaling and advanced glycation end product-receptor for AGE (AGE-RAGE) signaling in diabetic complications pathways. CIC could significantly affect fatty acid metabolism and had great influence on phenolic acid, alkaloid and lipid metabolites in cell microenvironment. These results suggest that the action mechanism of CIC may be the synergistic action of multiple pathways and multiple targets, including related inflammatory pathways, immune pathways and lipid metabolism, through regulating epigenetic expression balance and restoring the balance of cell microenvironment.

Background and purpose:Remarkable advances have been made in cancer chemotherapy by developing new anticancer drugs and therapy strategies.However,multidrug resistance in human cancers remains a major clinical challenge for cancer treatment.Attempts in several clinical studies to reverse multidrug resistance protein (MDR) by using MDR modulators have not yet generated promising results.Our aim was to explored the mechanism of reversal of multidrug resistance in human leukemia K562 cells by PI3-K inhibitor.Methods:Trypanblue dye exclusion method was used to observe the drug sensitivity and the effect of LY294002 on the drug resistance.Western blot to analyze P-gp and p-Akt phenotypes,and flow cytometer was used to measure the intracellular drug accumulation. Results:K562/D induced by DNR was cross resistant to DNR,ADR,VCR and VP16 (Resistance Index:65,52,134 and 50 respectively).DNR induced over-expressions of P-gp and p-Akt in K562/D cells;LY294002 increased the intracellular drug accumulation,and then reversed the drug resistance to DNR,ADR,VCR and VPI6 in K562/D cells(Resistance Index:23,21,63 and 29 respectively),but not in the sensitive cells (K562/S).Conclusion:The multidrug resistance of K562/D cells can be induced by DNR which is related to the P-gp and p-Akt over-expressions, and LY294002 can reverse multidrug resistance in human leukemia cells in vitro via inhibits PI3-K/Akt pathway.
