Viral myocarditis can cause severe myocardial injury and even acute heart failure, then evolve into dilated cardiomyopathy, known as inflammatory cardiomyopathy. Immune reaction plays a key role in the transformation from viral myocarditis into dilated cardiomyopathy, including virus RNA continuous replication,immune-mediated injury, cellular apoptosis, other cellular immune response , myocardial antibodies and other humoral immune response. In the clinical treatment, besides anti-heart failure and cardiac nutrition, the use of ribavirin, α1-receptor blockers, β-receptor blockers, calcium channel blockers, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and spironolactone should be emphasized.

Reference service is one of the key tasks in library.The current situation of reference service in library and its problems were analyzed from the need of readers, and the problems to which attention should be paid were pointed out from its convenience and time-effectiveness .

Objective To recommend the appropriate retrieval tools for scientific researchers and improve their re-trieval efficiency by comparatively analyzing the retrieval results from PubMed and Embase .com.Methods Eight retrieval terms from different subjects were used to retrieve PubMed and Embase .com by subject headings and basic retrieval methods than can automatically transfer their function .Results Six different results were retrieved from PubMed and Embase.com with 8 retrieval terms.Conclusion The recall ratio is higher in Embase.com than in PubMed when they are retrieved by subject headings while the accuracy ratio is higher in PubMed than in Embase . com when they are retrieved by basic retrieval methods than can automatically transfer their function although error transformation occurs in both PubMed and Embase.com.

With the development of clinical pharmacy in hospital,the demand for pharmacy intravenous admixture services (PIVAS) has been gradually increased.By being built inside the pharmacies,PIVAS of this hospital has created a full range of integrated pharmacy service platform.With independent research and development of information management system,innovative design of the modules and equipments based on the concept of internet of things,and integration of artificial and computerized checking,PIVAS of this hospital has formed a system of prevention and control chain,it has been deepening the connotation of clinical pharmacy services,and providing higher quality pharmacy services to clinical drug using.

Objective To understand the learning needs of nursing students for nursing English in senior high vocational school.Methods A survey was carried out among 982 three-year nursing students in grade 2007-2009 in Cangzhou medical college by questionnaire.The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics with SPSS 17.0.Results Most students (93.0％) believed that nursing English was important and had a strong desire for most English skills,especially speaking and listening ability.They (90.7％) expected nursing teachers to take charge of or participate in teaching work and some students (30.6％) were dissatisfied with teaching material.They depended on teachers' instruction and preferred learning in real situations.Conclusions Nursing students in senior high vocational school have strong needs for nursing English,but there is a gap between current teaching situation and learning needs,which the course designers and teachers should take into full consideration in order to make the teaching more effective.

Survivin is closely related to biological behavior of multiple cancers. Significant research progresses have been made in determining Survivin's expression and functional mechanisms in tumor cells. Survivin has been used in identifying tumor markers, predicting prognosis, investigating malignant behaviors and other aspects of cancer research.

Unmethylated CpG motif containing oligodeoxynucleotide(CpG ODN) can induce secretion of dendritic cells,and thus presents antigens efficiently,increases expression of costimulatory molecules,causes innate immunity response and adaptive immunity response,then plays anti-tumor roles.

Inflammasomes are multi-protein complexes that trigger the activation of caspase-1 and the maturation of interleukin-1β ( IL-1β) , which are critical for inflammation and control of pathogen infection. Inflammasomes are involved in and regulate diversified diseases due to its capability to sense multiple danger signals. In this review, we present the activation and regulation mechanisms for different inflammasomes and discuss how genetic mutations in inflammasome-related genes or abnormal activity of in-flammasomes lead to diseases. Insights into the role of inflammasome in various human diseases will provide sound theoretical basis and effective treatment strategy for these disease.

Objective To systematically evaluate the effectiveness of using gargle solution Chlorhexidine Gluconate for patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU.Methods The randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the application of gargle solution Chlorhexidine Gluconate for patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU were collected through the databases such as the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI),China Scientific Journal Database by VIP (VIP) and Wanfang Database.The quality of studies was critically appraised and data were extracted by two reviewers independently.Meta-analysis was conducted for the included studies.Results Eleven RCTs involving 1 337 patients were included.Meta-analysis showed that the application of gargle solution Chlorhexidine Gluconate for patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU could reduce ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) incidence rate[RR=0.54,95％CI(0.44-0.65),P ＜ 0.01],shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation [mean differences(MD)=-2.38,95％CI(-2.69--2.07),P ＜ 0.01] and length of ICU [MD=-3.66,95％CI (-5.45--1.87),P ＜ 0.01],but the mortality rate was not statistically significant [RR=0.37,95％CI (0.11-1.26),P ＞ 0.05].Conclusions The application of gargle solution Chlorhexidine Gluconate for patients with mechanical ventilation in ICU is safe and effective.
