Zebrafish was selected as model animal, and glucocorticoid dexamethasone was used as a model compound to establish a rapid and high efficient osteopenia model. Zebrafish larvae at 4 days post fertilization (dpf) were exposed to a serial concentrations of dexamethasone solutions, and 0.5% DMSO was selected as the vehicle control group. All groups were incubated in 24-well plates (28.5 degrees C) until 9 dpf. In addition, effects of 10 micromol x L(-1) dexamethasone on preventing against osteopenia induced by etidronate disodium were also investigated. Zebrafish bones at 9 dpf were stained with alizarin red. Quantitative analysis of the stained area was performed by microscopic inspection and digital imaging methods to reflect the amount of bone mineralization. Results showed that dexamethasone group at 2.5, 10 and 25 micromol x L(-1) can decrease the staining area and the staining optical density values of zebrafish head bones when compared with the vehicle control group (0.5% DMSO), which suggested that dexamethasone can significantly reduce the zebrafish mineralized bone and the bone mineral density. Results also showed that 15 and 30 microg x mL(-1) etidronate disodium can increase the mineralized matrix of zebrafish head bone and prevent against osteopenia induced by dexamethasone. In conclusion, the study indicated that zebrafish can be an idea osteopenia model induced by dexamethasone.

Objective To discuss the diagnostic value of N-terminal-pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) for patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) complicated with left heart failure. Methods Patients with medical history of AECOPD, or are diagnosed as AECOPD from March 2014 to February 2015 were involved in the study. Based on echocardiography and clinic characteristics , the patients were divided into left heart failure group (group A) and non-left heart failure group (group B). Related factors of elevated NT-proBNP in AECOPD and the diagnostic value of NT-proBNP for patients with AECOPD complicated with left heart failure were analyzed , and exclusive and diagnostic cutoff were worked out. Results In this study , 109 AECOPD patients were collected , including 21 patients in group A and 88 patients in group B. Multivariate linear regression analysis indicated NT-proBNP was positively associated with PCT (β=0.180,P = 0.011) and PAP(β = 0.333,P = 0.000), and negatively with LVEF(β = -0.511,P = 0.000)and the area under the ROC curve(AUC) was 0.959 (95% confidence interval:0.915-1.002,P = 0.000). The exclusive cutoff was 794.6 pg/mL(sensitivity:90.5%,specificity:92%), and the diagnostic cutoff 1 618 pg/mL(sensitivity:85.7%,specificity: 97.7%). Conclusions NT-proBNP can help to diagnose whether AECPOD patients are complicated with left heart failure. Besides left heart dysfunction and the state of systemic inflammation , pulmonary hypertension may be the reasons for the elevated NT-proBNP in AECOPD patients.

Objective To explore the effect of hospital-community-family integrated care on the physical and mental function of discharged stroke patients. Methods Sixty stroke patients discharged from the third people′s hospital of Bengbu were recruited from January 1, 2014 to April 30, 2015. The patients were divided into intervention group and control group by random number table, and 30 patients in each group. Rehabilitated nursing intervention including feeding, language, physical and psychological and psychological trainings were conducted in intervention group, while participants in control group only received routing nursing service. Then, the Barthel index scores, Fugl-Meyer motor function scores and Hanmilton Depression Scale (HAMD) scores were assessed in both two groups pre-intervention and six months after intervention. Results Intervened before and 6 months after the intervention group of patients with Barthel index score respectively (44.17 ± 11.21) points, (72.47 ± 15.36) points, Fugl-Meyer motor function scores were respectively (43.47±16.22) points, (62.39 ±15.41) points, HAMD scores were (26.81 ± 8.24) points, (17.42 ± 6.29). The difference was statistically significant (t=8.16, 4.64, 4.97, P <0.01). In contrast, the control group of patients with Barthel index score changes showed statistical significance (t=1.94, P=0.03), HAMD score also had differences (t=1.86, P=0.04) and the change was far less than the intervention group. Between the two groups after the intervention compared with Barthel index score, Fugl-Meyer motor function score and HAMD also had statistical significance (t=5.81, 3.55, 2.35, P = 0.00). Conclusions The rehabilitated nursing intervention has evident effects onliving environment,daily life, physical and mental function in discharged stroke patients, and the intervention approaches we used have certain clinical practice value.

OBJECTIVETo study the immunotoxicity induced by 9,10-dimethyl-1,2-benzathrancene (DMBA) in metallothionein gene-knocked-out mice [MT(-/-)] as compared with that in wild-type mice [(MT(+/+)].
METHODSFemale mice were treated with 25 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg of DMBA i.p., respectively and immunized with sheep red blood cells (SRBC) i.v. on the following day and rechallenged by injection of SRBC via footpad s.c. on the fourth day post-immunization. Humoral and cell-mediated immune function was assessed by the number of spleen IgM antibody plaque formation cells (PFC) to SRBC and cell-mediated delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) measured by footpad swelling thickness.
RESULTSAfter treatment with 25 mg/kg DMBA, a decrease in weight of their spleen and thymus and PFC/spleen were observed in MT(-/-) mice, while only decrease in thymus weight of MT(+/+) mice. The humoral function was suppressed by 72% in MT(-/-) mice. No obvious change in cell-mediated immune function was observed both in MT(-/-) and MT(+/+) mice. Both humoral and cell-mediated immune function were suppressed more severe (91%) in MT(-/-) mice treated with 50 mg/kg DMBA than those treated with 25 mg/kg DMBA (72%). DTH was not altered by DMBA in MT(+/+) mice. The weight of their spleen and thymus decreased and humoral immune function suppressed in MT(+/+) mice, but these changes were significantly less severe. No obvious suppression of cell-mediated immune function was observed in MT(+/+) mice.
CONCLUSIONTheir humoral and cell-mediated immune function was more susceptible to being suppressed by DMBA in MT(-/-) mice, indicating that MT could protect their immune function from damage caused by DMBA.
