Objective To improve the influence on physical and mental health of nurses caused by frequent night shifts in order to stabilize the nursing care ranks and sublimate comprehensively the quality of nursing. Methods We selected night shift nurses working at clinical departments at random, divided into the experimental group and the control group.The experimental group was provided coffee and milk at the fixed period of night time, however, the control group was not supplied during the night shift.We designed questionnaire according to the Comell Medical Index (CMI), the Trait Coping Style Questionnaire (TCSQ) and the needing of the research. In addition, we determined the concentrations of adrenal eortisol and blood glucose in the experimental group and the control group. Results The experimental group compared with the control group had stronger excitability, more active enthusiasm. Coffee and milk eliminated sleepiness during work without affecting sleep after work, and increased significantly the concentrations of adrenal cortisol and blood glucose, the difference had statistical significance. Conclusions With the supply of specific nutrients to night shift nurses can interfere and eliminate anthropogenicly night shift nurses sleepiness and fatigue, reduce nursing accident rate, and improve quality of care.

Objective To simulate the hemodynamic feature in cerebral bridging veins (BVs), in order to provide a morphologic basis for the pathogenesis explanation and imaging diagnosis of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT). MethodsTotally 6 human cadavers (12 sides) were examined in this study. Each head of the cadavers was injected with blue-coloured latex via the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) and internal jugular veins. The diamter and the angle of BVs entering SSS were measured. Based on the data of cadavers and computational fluid dynamics software pack, the hemodynamic models were established. The wall shear stress (WSS) was carefully studied and compared between different models. Results The total of 137 BVs formed two clusters along the SSS: anterior group and posterior group. Compared with anterior group BVs, the diameter of posterior group BVs was large, and the angle was smaller. In 137 models,when the diameter of a BV was more than 1.2mm, and the angle was between 65 and 105 degree, the local WSS decreased in the downstream wall of SSS. When the diameter of a BV was more than 1.2mm, and the angle was less than 65 degree, the local WSS decreased in the downstream wall of SSS and the upstream wall of BVs. The minimum WSS in BVs was 63% of the minimum WSS in SSS. Compared with the anterior group BVs, the minimum WSS in the wall of posterior group BVs was samller, and the distance from the minimum WSS to the dural entrance was longer. Conclusion CVT occurs easily when the diamter of a BV is more than 1.2mm and the angle is less than 65 degree. The embolus forms early in the upstream wall of BVs entering the posterior part of SSS.

Objective To further improve the morphological materials of AGs by micro-dissection, histology and CT, we observed the arachnoid granulations (AGs) in middle cranial fossa. Methods Thirty-three adult cadaveric heads were used for microsurgical dissection;Histological sections of AG specimens from 3 cadaver heads were examined. Forty patients who had both normal conventional brain CT and computed tomographic venography (CTV) were retrospectively reviewed. Results In middle cranial fossa the AGs occur in the following situations in order of frequency: the middle meningeal sinus, sphenoparietal sinus, lateral foramen rotundum and cavernous sinus. AGs usually show round, oval in shape and irregular in shape. AGs can be divided into individual type and leaflet type under light microscope. The numbers of AGs were observed by microanatomy and CTV were 8.72 and 3.52 respectively. The AGs of cavernous sinus was not localized precisely on CTV. Conclusion Study of the AGs in the middle cranial fossa systematically and comprehensively enriches anatomy and image knowledge. It is helpful in neurosurgical planning and choosing operalion procedure to avoid postoperative complications.

Aim To investigate the mechanism for the inhibitory effect of hydrogen sulfide on the expression of tissue factor(TF)induced by oxidative low-density lipoprotein(ox-LDL)in endothelial cells.Methods Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs ) were treated with 50 mg·L-1 ox-LDL in the absence or presence of different concentrations of NaHS (25 , 50,100 and 200 μmol·L-1 )for 24 h.The mRNA expression and protein content of TF in HUVECs were determined by reverse transcription PCR and ELISA, respectively.The content of intracellular reactive oxy-gen species (ROS)was determined by DCFH,an oxi-dative sensitive fluorescent indicator.The activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB)was estimated by its expression in nuclear extracts analyzed by Western blot.Results Ox-LDL induced TF mRNA expression and increased TF protein content in HUVECs.The in-crease in intracellular ROS production and the activa-tion of NF-κB were observed in HUVECs treated with ox-LDL.However,NaHS could markedly inhibit the increases in TF mRNA and protein levels induced by ox-LDL.Also the elevation of intracellular ROS pro-duction and the activation of NF-κB elicited by ox-LDL were significantly suppressed by pretreatment with NaHS.In addition,pretreatment with BAY 1 1-7082 (10 μmol·L-1 ),the inhibitor of NF-κB or N-acetyl-L-cysteine(1 mmol·L-1 ),an antioxidant,could also decrease the TF mRNA and protein level as well as ROS production and NF-κB activation induced by ox-LDL in HUVECs,similar to the effects of 200 μmol· L-1 NaHS.Conclusion The mechanism for the in-hibitory effect of H2 S on the ox-LDL- induced TF ex-pression in endothelial cells may be related to inhibi-ting intracellular ROS production and subsequently NF-κB activation.

Accurately predicting the risk of mediastinal lymph node metastasis before surgery is of great significance for tumor staging, treatment plan decision, and prognosis evaluation in patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC). Traditional imaging methods such as CT, MRI and PET/CT are currently the most commonly used clinical methods in clinical evaluation of lymph node status. However, it is subjective to judge lymph node metastasis only by the change of image morphological characteristics, and inflammatory lymphadenopathy will also lead to a high false positive rate. The clinicopathological characteristics obtained by analyzing the clinical data of patients with NSCLC can improve the accuracy of lymph node metastasis prediction to a certain extent. The clinical prediction model based on medical images combined with the clinical characteristics of patients can provide more intuitive and rational information for doctors and patients, but the performance and applicability of the model will inevitably decrease due to changes in disease risk factors and treatment measures. In recent years, with the significant improvement of image analysis technology and computing ability, radiomics models based on medical images can deeply dig into the data in radiological images for quantitative analysis, providing new ideas for predicting mediastinal lymph node metastasis in NSCLC patients, which has attracted extensive attention at home and abroad. This article reviews the progress and makes prospects of the above methods in the prediction of mediastinal lymph node metastasis in NSCLC.

Objective The oxidative damage of DNA can be caused by excessive levels of Reactive oxygen species(ROS).Monitoring of DNA oxidative damage enables effective evaluation of ROS damage effects.Although the detection of DNA damage effects based on microbial sensor allows quantitative analysis of oxidative damage,the ROS clearance mechanism existed in bacterial will affect the sensitive of detection.The work of this article is to knockout the key genes of ROS clearance mechanism and construct an antioxidant gene-knock-out microbial sensor.The microbial sensor can realize sensitive monitoring of DNA damage effects and then evaluates the damage effects of cells by ROS.Methods The antioxidant damage genes of bacterial ahpCF,katE and katG were knocked out by λ-Red homologous recombination and antioxidant gene-knockout microbial sensor was constructed.The nalidixic acid sodium salt and UV irradiation were used to characterize the performance for monitoring of DNA damage effects.Results The antioxidant gene-knockout microbial sensors ΔahpC,ΔahpCF/ΔkatEG and ΔahpCF/ΔkatE/ΔkatG were constructed successfully.The results showed that the microbial sensor ΔahpCF/ΔkatE/ΔkatGl had the highest sensitive of damage effects and the limit of detection for nalidixic acid sodium salt was 0.40 μmol/L.In addition,1.80 min of UV irradiation(254 nm)was sufficient to induce a significant fluorescent expression effect in the engineered bacteria.Conclusion In this article,antioxidant gene-knockout microbial sensors had been constructed to realize active and sensitive monitoring of DNA damage effects such as DNA damage reagents and UV irradiation.The sensors could provide an active,effective,and sensitive potential monitoring method for future evaluation of radiation effects in space.
