Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2012;11(1):74-76
ObjectiveTo explore the clinical-pathway-based teaching effect in teaching urological postgraduate students in department of urology.Methods36 students were divided to two groups:18 students are the clinical pathway based teaching group, and the other 18 students are traditional teaching group.Examination was used to compare the effect of each teaching method after 6 month.The examination including history collection,physical examination and case file writing,clinical case analysis,clinical operational skills test and basic theory.ResultsThe record of history collection,physical examination and case file writing and basic theory test in clinical pathway based teaching group is not different between the two groups,but the record of clinical case analysis and clinical operational skills test in clinical pathway group is better than the traditional teaching group.ConclusionClinical pathway based teaching can improve the teaching effect of clinical case analysis and clinical operational skills in urological postgraduate students,and can improve the strengthen of clinical thinking and working ability.

Objective To evaluate the status of P-selectin and platelet activating factor(PAF) in vivo in patients with deep venous thrombosis(DVT) and to observe their changes under interneving of medicines.Methods P-selectin and PAF of fourty patients and twenty normal subjects were fluorescence labled with corresponding monoclonal antibodies by flow cytometry( FCM ) and immunologic method respectively. Results P-selectin and PAF in patients with DVT were higher than that in normal subjects in early period of the disease, and they significantly decreased in different time after patients were treated. P-selectin was significantly different between patients who received sodium ozagrel treatment and those who not (P <0.05 ), but PAF was similar( P > 0. 05 )after fourteen days. One month later, P-selectin and D-dimer in DVT patients were lower than before. However, the positive rate of P-selectin of DVT was still higher than normal subjects. Conclusions The platelet is activated in vivo in patients with DVT, so does fibrinolysis. Sodium ozagrel can decrease activity of platelet. P-selectin and PAF may be used diagnostic markers. Post-discharge patients are still at high-risk and must be regularly followed-up.

Objective To explore the relationship between plasma Tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α),Interleukin-6(IL-6) levels and brain edema caused by hypertensive intracerebral henorrhage.Methods 62 patients with hypertensive intrscerebral hemorrhage( the observation group) and 50 healthy persons( the control group) were selected.The expression of plasma TNF-α and IL-6 were determined by ELISA pre-therapy and 1d,3d,7d,14d after treatment in two groups;The volume of cerebral edema was measured by CT.The relationship between plasma TNF-α,IL-6 levels and brain edema caused by hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage were analyzed.Results Before treatment,the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in the observation group were( 15.62 ±9.49)μg/L and (67.47 ±6.31 )ng/L,which were significandy higher than(8.28 ± 3.36) μg/L and(31.02 ± 3.51 ) ng/L of the control group( t =9.17,64.28,P =0.01 ),and Spearman analysis showed that the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were positively correlated with the volume of cerebral edema(r=0.934,P=0.02;r=0.922,P =0.026).Conclusion There was an up-regulation of TNF-α and IL-6 levels in the plasma of patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.TNF-α and IL-6 may promote the formation of cerebral edema during the course of hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.

Objective To explore the influence of up-regulated Foxp3 on Treg function and kidney transplantation chronic rejection reaction in rat model.Method The kidney transplantation chronic rejection reaction rat model was established.The F344 kidney was transplanted to Lewis rats,and retroviruses highly expressing Foxp3 were constructed.The Banff 97 hierarchical diagnostic criteria were used to diagnose chronic renal allograft nephropathy (CAN).The rat models were divided into three groups by random number table.In experimental group,the pSCV-BsdRFP-FoxP3 retroviruses were injected into the rats via the tail vein after operation.In negative control group,the pSCV-BsdRFP retroviruses were injected into the rats via the tail vein after operation.In blank group,the normal saline was injected into the rats via the tail vein after operation.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the changes of interleukin-10 (IL-10) and tumor necrosis factor-β (TGF-β) immediate,1,2,3,and 4 weeks after operation.The rats were killed at 4th week after operation,and kidney tissues were taken out for pathological examination.Result The pathological changes of CAN were observed at 4th week.The typical chronic rejection change was seen at 12th week.The levels of IL-10 and TGF-β were increased,and reached the peak at 3rd week.The levels of IL-10 and TGF-β in experimental group were higher than in negative control group and blank group at 1st,2nd,3rd,and 4th week.At 4th week,obviously different degrees of intimal thickening,and mild hyperplasia of interstitial fibers,glomerular sclerosis and infiltration with lymphocytes and plasma cells were observed in the three groups.In the experimental group,the lesions were mildest,and apparent neointimal hyperplasia was found.Conclusion pSCV-BsdRFP FoxP3 retroviruses can reduce the kidney transplantation chronic rejection reaction in rat model,and have the potential treatment effect.

Objective To establish the real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method for the detection of bifidobacteria in human fecal samples, and to provide an effective means for measuring intestinal bacteria. Methods Total DNA of bacteria was extracted from 60 cases of children's fecal samples. Three primers of bifidobacteria based on the 16S ribosomal RNA (16SrRNA)which possessed specialities of bacteria as amplified region were designed.The part of amplified 16SrRNA gene sequences was used as standard production.The serial dilution of standard was analyzed to build an absolute quantitative standard curve with SYBR GreenⅠ dye method, and the bifidobacterium contents in sixty human fecal samples were calculated. The sensitivity of the reaction was calculated by detecting the lowest detectable standard which determined the sensitivity of the reaction. The PCR products’melting curve was used to evaluate the specificity.The coefficient of variation (CV)of different batches of standard with the same concentration was used to evaluate the stability of reaction.Results The length of PCR product fragment which was used to build the standard curve was about 6 1 3 bp, the sequencing result was consist with the goals, and the standard sample of bifidobacteria was successfully established in real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.The standard curve showed a good linear relationship with R2=0.999.The minimum detection value was 1.48×102 copies per reaction.The melting curve of real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was a single peak.The test samples were batched and then examined by fluorescence quantitative PCR.The CV of standards’ Ct values which calculated from the standard (1.48 × 103 -1.48 × 107 copies · μL-1 )were 2.94%, 3.39%, 3.54%,3.08%,and 3.34%,respectively.The contents of bifidobacteria in fecal from 60 children was 7.77± 0.86(copies · g-1 wet fecal)transformed by logarithmic.Conclusion The established real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method has high sensitivity, strong specificity and good repeatability, which is suitable for detection of human fecal bifidobacteria content.

AIM:To investigate the inhibitory effect of P12,a kind of lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-binding protein(LBP) inhibitory peptide,on the binding of LPS to macrophage in vitro.METHODS:Human monocyte-like cell line(U937 cells) was grown in RPMI-1640 and stimulated with PMA in order to induce their differentiation to macrophage stage.The relative affinity of P12 to LPS was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The effects of P12 on the binding of LPS to U937 cells were determined by flow cytometry analysis.The production of tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-?) was measured by ELISA.RESULTS:The relative binding activity of P12 to LPS was higher than that of LBP in the same mass concentration.P12 inhibited the binding of FITC-conjugated LPS(FITC-LPS) to U937 cells.The productions of TNF-? was also significantly suppressed by P12.CONCLUSION:The results suggest that blockage of LBP at the inflammatory sites might attenuate LPS-induced circulatory shock.
