The fourth generation poly( amidoamine) dendrimers ( G4. 0 PAMAM) functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotube ( G4 . 0-MWCNTs ) was prepared by amidation between carboxylated multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNTs) and G4. 0 PAMAM. Then a novel hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) sensor was fabricated by electrodepositing Pd nanoparticles (NPs) on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with G4. 0-MWCNTs composites. The modified electrode was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy ( FESEM) , cyclic voltammetry ( CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy ( EIS) . A large amounts of highly dispersion PdNPs could be well loaded on the surface of the G4. 0-MWCNTs, and the modified electrode exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the reduction of H2 O2 . Under the optimized conditions, the reduction peak currents of H2 O2 were linear to their concentrations in the range from 1. 0 × 10-9 mol/L to 1. 0×10-3 mol/L and the limit of detection of 2. 3×10-8 mol/L was obtained. The recovery of standard addition for human serum samples was 96 . 7%-103 . 1%.

A novel hydrogen peroxide sensor was fabricated by the seed-mediated growth method. First, polyethyleneimine(PEI) functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes(MWNTs) were used as growth scaffold on the glass carbon electrode ( GCE). Then, Au nanoparticles were electrodeposited uniformly as seeds. Finally, Pt nanoparticles ( PtNPs ) grew on Au nanoparticles to form Pt @ Au core-shell structure nanocomposite. A new type of electrochemical sensor based on Pt @ Au / PEI-MWNTs nanocomposites for detection of hydrogen peroxide was developed, and the designed Pt@ Au / PEI-MWNTs/ GCE was characterized by electrochemical methods and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The Differential pulse experimental results showed that the modified electrode exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the reduction of H2 O2 with the wide linear range from 9. 2 ×10-8 mol/ L to 1. 3 ×10-3 mol/ L. The correlation coefficient was 0. 9994 and the low detection limit was 3. 1×10-8 mol/ L at the signal-to-noise of 3.

Objective To explore the effect of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) combined with Xianling Gubao capsule on treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures(OVCF).Methods 118 postmenopausal women diagnosed as OVCF and meeting the standard were collected from Mar.2012 to Jul.2016 in our hospital.They were randomly divided into two groups:observation group and the control group.General information of the two groups were comparable.The patients of the control group received PKP combined with traditional anti-osteoporosis therapy.The patients of observation group received Xianling Gubao capsule on the basis of the control group.The lumbar bone density (BMD,greater trochanter BMD,femoral neck BMD,Ward triangle BMD,the Japanese orthopaedic association(JOA)score,the visual analogue score (VAS) score,the serum levels of osteoprotegerin (OPG),receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)and adverse reactions were recorded during the treatment.Results The lumbar BMD,greater trochanter BMD,femoral neck BMD,Ward triangle BMD of observation group at 6-month after operation were higher than those before operation and those of control group (P＜0.05).The VAS score and JOA score of the observation group were superior to those of the control group at 6-month after operation (P＜0.05).The serum levels of OPG of observation group were higher than those of control group,while the serum levels of RANKL of observation group were lower than those of control group at 6-month after operation (P＜0.05).No severe adverse reactions occurred in the two groups during the treatment.Conclusion Xianling Gubao capsule can significantly improve bone metabolism of postmenopausal women with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures after percutaneous kyphoplasty,increasing BMD,improving lumbar function,relieving pain,without increasing complication rates.

Objective To evaluate the effect of bundles of care on the prevention of postoperative delirium among elderly patients with hip fractures.Methods A prospective randomized case control study was conducted on 80 patients (≥65 years old) with hip fractures from March 2017 to June 2017.The patients were divided into experimental group (n =43) and control group (n =37) according to the random number table method.The experimental group received bundles of care,while the control group received routine nursing.The patients in both groups were all surgically treated,and the confusion assessment method (CAM) was applied to diagnose delirium after surgery.Gender,age,fracture type,duration from injury to operation,internal fixation type,operation time,total amount of bleeding,visual analogue scale (VAS),incidence of delirium,complications,and adverse events were compared between the two groups.Results Among the 80 patients,there were 11 males and 69 females,aged averagely 79.3 years (range,65-95 years).No significant differences were found between experiment group and control group in terms of gender (male:6 cases vs.5 cases,females:37 cases vs.32 cases),age [(79.8 ± 7.8) years vs.(78.7 ± 8.9) years],cause of injury (traffic injuries:7 cases vs.4 cases;falling injuries:36 cases vs.33 cases),duration from injury to operation [(66.1 ±14.3)hours vs.(63.4 ±14.9) hours],fracture type (femoral neck:13 cases vs.10 cases;intertrochanteric:26 cases vs.24 cases;subtrochanteric:4 cases vs.3 cases),internal fixation type (artificial total hip:5 cases vs.5 cases;artificial femoral head:8 cases vs.5 cases;PFNA:29 cases vs.27 cases),operation time [(55.5 ± 16.8) minutes vs.(51.6 ± 17.0) minutes],total blood loss [(114.4 ± 73.9) ml vs.(108.1 ±72.0) ml] (P ＞ 0.05).After bundles of care intervention,the postoperative VAS [(2.2 ± 0.8) points vs.(4.3 ± 1.2) points],postoperative delirium incidence (9％ vs.32％),incidence of complications and adverse events (2％ vs.19％) in experimental group were significantly lower than those in control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Bundles of care can relieve the pain and effectively reduce the incidences of postoperative delirium,complications,and adverse events in elderly patients with hip fracture.

Methods : The genomic DNA of the clinical isolate 15420352 was extracted after purification and preservation of the strain , and then the whole genome was sequenced , and then the type of the plasmid was identified .

Five IncpGRT1 plasmids carried at least three different accessory modules , including the srp region , the msr region , and a Tn5053 family transposon . Three resistance genes strA , strB , and mer were obtained in these plasmids , which were involved in resistance to two categories of antibiotics and heavy metals . We also found that these plasmids carried at least one virulence gene msr and five key transporters srp , emrE , mod , phn , and lpt , which could improve the environmental adaptability of the strains . Conclusion The IncpGRT1 plasmids have become the important vector for the accumulation and spread of some drug resistance genes and virulence genes in Pseudomonas , and have improved the environmental adaptability of the strain.
