Objective To investigate the changes and significance of serum N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide ( NT-proBNP) levels in mice model with viral myocarditis( VMC) . Methods 100 Balb/c mice were randomly di-vided into VMC group ( n=60 ) and control group ( n=40 ) . Mice in VMC group were injected intraperitoneally coxsackievirus B3 ( CVB3 ) , while mice in control group were treated with the same amount of virus-free DMEM cul-tivate liquid. 10 mice of each group were sacrificed on 3, 7, 14, and 28th day after VMC modeling and their blood and heart tissues were collected. The serum NT-proBNP levels in two groups of mice were detected by ELISA. Pathological changes in myocardial tissue were examined with hematoxylin and eosin stain. The relationship be-tween serum NT-proBNP concentration and cardiac pathology score of VMC group at different time points were ana-lyzed. Results The serum NT-proBNP levels of VMC group were significantly higher than that of control group( P<0. 05 ) . There was a significant statistical difference between NT-proBNP levels of VMC group at different time points( P <0. 05 ) . The NT-proBNP level was positively correlated with myocardial histopathology scores ( r =0. 829 , P<0. 05 ) . Conclusion Serum NT-proBNP levels may reflect severity of myocardial injury in mice with VMC. NT-proBNP can be used as one of serum indicators to judge the risk stratification in mice with VMC.

Objective To investigate the expressions and significance of PAX-5, OCT-2 and BOB.1 in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Methods Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expressions of CD30, CD15, PAX-5, OCT-2, BOB.1, CD20 and CD3 in 44 samples of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues of HL. The histological classification was carried out according to the WHO classification for tumors of hematopoietic and lymphoid tissues (2001). Results In all 44 cases, 3 (6.8) were nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) and 41 (93.2) were classical Hodgkin lymphoma (CHL). In Hodgkin and Reed Sternberg cells, CD30 were expressed in 36 samples (81.8), CD15 in 27 (61.4), CD20 in 14 (31.8), PAX-5 in 43 (97.7), OCT-2 in 14 (31.8), and BOB.1 in 7 (15.9). All samples of NLPHL expressed OCT-2 and BOB.1, while in the samples of CHL, 30 samples (73.2) expressed both OCT-2 and BOB.1, 7 (17.1) expressed only OCT-2, 1 (2.4) expressed only BOB.1 and all were negative for CD30. Conclusion Hodgkin lymphoma is a rare neoplasm with uncertain cause and difficult to diagnose. The detection of PAX-5, OCT-2 , BOB.1 in combination with CD30, CD15 will conduce to the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of Hodgkin lymphoma.

Objective:To comparatively analyze the changes regulation of death attitude and death education needs for undergraduate nursing students in different grades.Methods:From March to June in 2019, 766 undergraduate nursing students from Batch 2015 to Batch 2018 of a medical college were collected in cluster sampling. The investigation was conducted by using the scale of Death Attitude Profile-revised in Chinese version and the scale of death education needs. SPSS 22.0 was used for statistical analysis, LSD test for measurement data, and chi-square test for counting data.Results:There were increasing trends of scores from freshman to junior in dimensions of fear of death, approach-oriented death acceptance and escape-oriented death acceptance ( P < 0.05), and the scores decreased in senior, but without statistical difference compared with junior ( P > 0.05). In neutral death acceptance dimension, the score decreased significantly in the second year ( P = 0.001), and then returned back to the original level in the fourth year. No significantly statistical difference was found in scores of different grades in death escape dimension ( P = 0.038). The score of death education need in the fourth year was the highest ( P < 0.05) and was positively correlated with the score of neutral death acceptance dimension ( P = 0.007). Conclusion:With the increase of school year, nursing students' positive attitude for death demonstrates positive trend, while the level of negative attitude of death are becoming balanced. The fourth year is suggested to be the right time to conduct death education immediately.

Objective To com pare and explore the application value of diatom nitric acid digestion method and plankton 16S rDNA PCR method for drow ning identification. Methods Forty drow ning cases from 2010 to 2011 were collected from Department of Forensic Medicine of Wenzhou Medical University. Sam ples including lung, kidney, liver and field water fromeach case were tested with diatom nitric acid digestion method and plankton 16S rDNAPCR method, respectively. The Diatom nitric acid digestion method and plankton 16S rDNAPCR method required 20 gand 2g of each organ,and 15 mL and 1.5 mL of field water, respectively. The inspection time and detection rate were com pared between the two methods. Results Diatom nitric acid digestion method m ainly detected two species of diatom s, Centriae and Pennatae, while plankton 16S rDNA PCR method am plified a length of 162 bp band. The average inspection time of each case of the Diatom nitric acid digestion method was (95.30±2.78) min less than (325.33±14.18)min of plankton 16S rDNA PCR method (P<0.05).The detection rates of two methods for field water and lung were both 100% . For liver and kidney, the detection rate of plankton 16S rDNA PCR method was both 80% , higher than 40% and 30% of diatom nitric acid digestion method (P<0.05), respectively. Conclusion The laboratory testing method needs to be appropriately selected according to the specific circum stances in the forensic appraisal of drow ning. Com pared with diatom nitric acid digestion method, plankton 16S rDNA PCR method has practice values with such advantages as less quantity of sam ples, huge inform ation and high specificity.

Objective To evaluate the value of CT and MRIin diagnosis of littoral cell angioma(LCA) of spleen.Methods CT and MRI findings the data of 6 patients with LCA were rospectively analyzed,and all patients were proved LCA of spleen by pathology.Then enhanced CT (n =4 cases) and MRI (n =2 cases) were performed.The imaging performance of LCA was observed,and its imaging features was summarized.Results None of patients showed obvious signs and symptoms of hypersplenism,4 cases were with splenomegaly.5 patients had a single lesion,only one had few lesions.There were not any calcification or envelopement of all the lesions.On CT,all lesions demonstrated distinct borders.The enhanced scan for low-density nodules demonstrated slow progressive enhancement.On MRI,all the LAC had well circumscribed borders,and demonstrated T1 · hypointense and T2-equal,hyperintense signals,and progressive enhancement on the post contrast images.Conclusion CT and MRI imaging of littoral cell angioma of spleen have special imaging characteristics,those particular findings is helpful in the diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1 ) inhibitor N, N-dimethylsphingosine (DMS)combined with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)on the proliferation and apoptosis of gastric cancer MGC-803 cells and to explore the possible mechanisms involved.Methods MGC-803 cells were cultured in vitro.The effects of DMS and 5-FU on cell proliferation,apoptosis,and cell cycle distribution of MGC-803 cells were detected by MTT assay and flow cytometer (FCM),respectively.The expressions of SphK1 ,TS,DPD,NF-κB p65 and Bcl-2 proteins were detected by Western blot.Results Different concentrations of DMS or 5-FU alone or in combination could obviously inhibit the proliferation of MGC-803 cells in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manners (P<0.05 ).And the proliferation inhibition rate of MGC-803 cells in the combination group was significantly higher than that in the single drug groups (P<0.05).Treatment of MGC-803 cells with DMS did not affect the cell cycle distribution (P>0.05).As compared with the cells without drug treatment,DMS or 5-FU alone could obviously increase the apoptosis rate of MGC-803 cells (P<0.05);the apoptosis rate in the combination group was significantly higher than that in the single-drug groups (P<0.05).The expression levels of SphK1,NF-κB p65 and bcl-2 proteins were down-regulated with the treatment of DMS alone or in combination,whereas those of TS and DPD were not affected.Conclusion DMS can inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis of gastric cancer MGC-803 cells in vitro.It shows a good synergetic effect in combination with 5-FU,probably by down-regulating the expressions of SphK1,NF-κB p65 and Bcl-2 proteins.

Objective: To determine the rate of lymph node metastases in women with endometrial carci-noma and to compare the pattern of lymphatic spread of endometrial carcinoma with that of cervical carcino-ma. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the lymphatic spread in 104 patients with endometrial carcinoma and 253 patients with cervical carcinoma. All of the patients underwent a complete pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy from caudal to the median circumflex to the level of renal vessels. Results: The incidence of lymphatic metastases in the endometrial carcinoma group was higher than that in the cervical carcinoma group (22.1% vs 16.2 %). The pathologic grade (G_1: 12.1%; G_2: 21.4%; G_3: 34.5%) and depth of myometrial in-vasion (≤1/2: 11.9%; >1/2: 29%) were correlated with lymph node metastasis. The rates of para-aortic node involvement, pelvic lymph node involvement and involvement of both were 4.3%, 34.8% and 60.9% in the en-dometrial carcinoma group and 0%, 68.3% and 31.7% in the cervical carcinoma group. The rates of obturator node involvement were 73.9% and 70.7%, respectively; the rates of suprainguinal node involvement were 8.7% and 7.3%, respectively. Compared with cervical carcinoma, endometrial carcinoma showed higher rate of para-aortic and sacral node involvement (65.2% vs 31.7%, and 21.7% vs 17.1%) and lower rate of extamal iliac node involvement (17.4% vs 41.5%). Conclusion: Compared with cervical carcinoma, endometrial carcino-ma has a distinct lymphatic spread pattern and can directly metastasize to both pelvic lymph nodes and pa-ra-aortic lymph nodes with pelvic lymph node metastases being dominant. Positive lymph nodes are common-ly seen in cases of all pathological grades.
