To explore the roles of astrocytes in the epileptogenesis, astrocytes and neurons were isolated, purified and cultured in vitro from cerebral cortex of rats. The astrocytes were activated by ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) and astrocytic conditioned medium (ACM) was collected to treat neurons for 4, 8 and 12 h. By using Western blot, the expression of calmodulin dependent protein kinase II (CaMK II), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and adenylate cyclase (AC) was detected in neurons. The results showed that the expression of CaMK II, iNOS and AC was increased significantly in the neurons treated with ACM from 4 h to 12 h (P<0.05), and that of iNOS and AC peaked at 8 h and 12 h respectively. It was suggested that there might be some epileptogenic factors in the ACM and such signal pathways as NOS-NO-cGMP, Ca2+/CaM-CaMK II and AC-cAMP-PKA might take part in the signal transduction of epileptogenesis.

Objective To analysis the diagnostic values and characteristics of ultrasound and ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) before operation. Methods The data of ultrasound and ultrasound guided FNAC in 129 patients (including 148 PTC nodules) with PTC were collected from January 2014 to February 2017, and the diagnostic reports and feature descriptions of ultrasound and ultrasound guided FNAC were analyzed retrospectively. Results Among the 148 PTC nodules, the ultrasonographic imaging showed that 84.5% (125/148) with low echo-level solid nodules, 61.5% (91/148) with echo heterogenicity, 77.7% (115/148) with a ratio ≥ 1 in longitudinal/breadth, 69.6 % (103/148) with fuzzy boundary, 75.0% (111/148) with microcalcification in nodules, 97.3% (144/148) without or with incomplete aureole, 64.9% (96/148) with rich blood flow and 7.0% (9/129) with enlargement of cervical lymph nodes. The FNAC diagnosis showed that 78.4% (116/148) was diagnosed with suspected papillary carcinoma, 1.4% (2/148) was diagnosed with malignent tumor, 11.5% (17/148) was diagnosed with atypia of undetermined significance (AUS), 1.4% (2/148) was diagnosed with benign lesion, 0.7% (1/148) was diagnosed with follicular neoplasm and 6.7% (10/148) could not be diagnosed. If the suspected papillary carcinoma and malignent tumor were defined as cytodiagnosis, the diagnostic accordance rate with intraoperative pathology was 79.7%. Conclusion The preoperative accuracy rates of ultrasound diagnosis and ultrasound guided FNAC diagnosis for patients with PTC are high, and the characteristics of the both are also typical. The two examinations before operation are helpful for early diagnosis and treatment formulation for patients with PTC.

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a group of neuromuscular disorders, caused by degeneration of the motor neurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord, with prevalence of about 1 in 6000 to 1 in 10000 in newborn. The gene carrying frequency is about 1 in 40 to 1 in 50 all over the world. SMA is one of the most common autosomal recessive diseases causing infant death. SMA mainly refers to SMN1 dependent caused by SMN1 gene mutations. Noninvasiveness and specificity make genetic testing a recommended method for diagnosis of SMA. In addition to conventional methods such as neural nutrition, muscle exercise, etc., there is no specific treatment for SMA up to now. Nevertheless, HDAC inhibitors deserve attention as they are the only drugs completed Phase Ⅲ clinical trials to date. Furthermore, other ways as small-molecule SMN enhancers, induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC), antisense oligonucleotides to correct SMN2 splicing, etc, were still on the way of in vitro stage at present.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic value of platelet volume indices (PVIs), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the combination of these parameters for the neurological function of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients after intravenous thrombolysis.Methods:From January 2016 to January 2019, the data of 147 AIS patients with intravenous thrombolysis in the Emergency Department of Peking University People's Hospital who met the diagnostic criteria of AIS were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups according to modified rank in scale (MRS) score: MRS≤2 and MRS≥3. The general information, past medical history and laboratory examination results of each group were compared. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of poor prognosis of neurological function in AIS patients with thrombolysis.Results:NLR ( OR=1.045, 95% CI: 1.032-2.350, P=0.032), mean platelet volume (MPV) ( OR=4.212, 95% CI:1.074-16.513, P=0.039), MPV×NLR/PLT ( OR=5.711, 95% CI: 1.342-24.298, P=0.018), platelet distribution width (PDW) ( OR=1.015, 95% CI: 1.001-2.372, P=0.032), and NIHSS score ( OR=1.266, 95% CI: 1.111-1.443, P<0.01) were related with poor prognosis neurological function of AIS patients with intravenous thrombolysis. Conclusions:MPV, NLR, MPV×NLR/PLT PDW and NIHSS scores are the risk factors for poor prognosis of neurological function in AIS patients with thrombolysis. MPV×NLR/PLT can predict the neurological severity of AIS after 3 months.

Objective To study the effect of the quality control circle in reducing not using needed security signs of emergency nursing. Methods A panel for quality control circle was set up to implement quality control circle activities in order to promote the use of drug signs, anti-accident signs, hospital infection signs and nursing security signs. The un-qualified rate of the sign uses were compared between pre-and post-implication of quality control circle. Result The un-qaulified rate of drug sign uses was significantly decreased after the implementation (P<0.01). Conclusion The quality control circle can be effective for improving the rate of using nursing signs and thus enhancing nursing quality.
