1.Progress of factors affecting the outcome of resuscitation in children
International Journal of Pediatrics 2016;43(5):347-349
Cardiopulmonary arrest is one of the most critical situations,posing a serious threat to life.With the development of medical technology, the rate of return of spontaneous circulation after cardiac arrest has been improved.However, many children suffer from multiple organ dysfunction because of the long hypoxia time from cardioplumonary arrest, so the rate of long-term survival is relatively low and the long-term outcome is still not satisfactory.Therefore, how to make cardiopulmonary resuscitation more effective is the focus of current research.This article reviews the related factors that affect the outcome of resuscitation, providing references for the treatment of cardiopulmonary arrest in children.
2.All trans retinoic acid-induced overexpression of Cx43 gene in RB cells and its inhibition on the growth of RB
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2014;32(10):910-915
Background One of the important machanisms of all trans retinoic acid (ATRA) is to regulate the expression of connexin (Cx) gene.ATRA inhibits the proliferation and differentiation of retinoblastoma (RB) cells,which is related to Cx43.However,the control site of ATRA and its effect on RB tumor in vivo have not been identified.Objective This study was to investigate the effect of ATRA on Cx43 expression in RB cells and its approach mechanisms.Methods ATRA solution of 1 × 10 2 mol/L was prepared with ethanol and formulated into 1×10 5,1×10-6and 1 × 10 7 mol/L of solution with culture medium further.Human RB cell line (HXO-RB44) was cultured and treated with different concentrations of ATRA for 2,4 and 6 days,respectively.The expressions of Cx43 protein and mRNA in RB cells were detected by Western blot and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR),respectively.RB models were established by injecting HXO-RB44 cell suspension into anterior chamber in the right eyes of 15 athymic mice.Eleven successful models were divided into the blank control group,negative control group and 1 × 10-5 mol/L ATRA group,and 0.5% normal saline solution with athymic or 1 ×10-5 mol/L ATRA solution was injected into the anterior chamber in the negative control group and 1 × 10-5 mol/L ATRA group in the 3-day interval for 3 weeks.The model eyes were examined under the slit lamp microscope.The eyeballs were extracted at the end of the experiment for hematoxylin and eosin staining.Results Western blot assay showed that the absorbance values of Cx43 protein (ACx43/AGAPDH) were increased gradually as time lapse of ATRA treatment among the groups (Ftime =71.31,P =0.00; Fgroup =7.66,P =0.00).The expressions of Cx43 protein were significantly higher in the 1 × 10 5 mol/L ATRA group after 2 days,1 × 10-6 mol/L ATRA group after 4 days,1 × 10-7 mol/L ATRA group after 6 days than those in the blank control group at various time points (t =3.34,P<0.01 ;t =2.33,P<0.05;t =3.12,P< 0.01).RT-PCR showed that the absorbance values of Cx43 mRNA (ACx43mRXA/Aβ-actin) were significantly enhanced as the prolong of treatment time of ATRT among the groups (Ftime =90.90,P =0.00 ; Fgroup =6.86,P =0.00).The expressions of Cx43 mRNA were significantly higher in the 1 × 10-5 mol/L ATRA group after 2 days,1 × 10 6 mol/L ATRA group and 1 ×10-7 mol/L ATRA group after 4 days than those in the blank control group at various time points (t=3.57,P<0.01 ;t=6.31,P<0.01 ;t=2.22,P<0.05).RB models were successfully created in 11 eyes on the 6-9 days following the intrachamber injection of RB cell suspension.The RB cells were filled with chamber in the blank control group 20 days after injection,and RB only occupied half of the anterior chamber in the 1 × 10-5 mol/L ATRA group.Histopathological examination exhibited that the RB cells were seen in the anterior and posterior chamber as well as vitreous in the blank control group,however,the cells were only found in the anterior chamber in the 1 × 10 5 mol/L ATRA group.Conclusions ATRA can inhibit the growth of RB in vitro and in vivo by inducing the expression of Cx43 gene in transcription process.

Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science 2009;18(5):456-458
Objective To examine the academic emotions and its relationship with academic self-efficacy among secondary special school students. Methods 352 secondary special school students were collected as the subjects.All subjects were tested with academic emotions questionnaire and academic self-efficacy questionnaire and analyzed the result of the test by multivariate analysis of variance,correlation analysis and linear regression analysis. Results Scores on enjoyment,anxiety,anger,depression,total scores on positive-high arousal academic emotions and negative-high arousal academic emotions of secondary special school girls(27.88±3.84,24.77±5.03,18.03±3.37,18.14±3.65,59.33±7.98,57.48±10.49,respectively)were higher than those of boys(26.41±4.55,22.38±5.71,17.01±3.91,16.07±3.94,57.46±9.20,53.45±11.76,respectively),(P<0.05).The academic emotions' differences among different grades of secondary special school students were not significant(F-(1,348)=1.275,P=0.226).The interaction of gender and grade on academic emotions was not significant(F-(1,348)=1.057,P=0.397).Academic emotions and academic self-efficacy was interrelated(r=-0.513~0.685).The result of multiple regression analysis showed that each factor of academic self-efficacy played a significant predictor role on academic emotions(β=-0.631~0.462,P<0.01). Conclusion The academic emotions' differences between secondary special school boys and girls are significant. Academic self-efficacy is closely related to academic emotions.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of low dose thalidomide combined with chemotherapy in treatment of multiple myeloma(MM)and the clinical curative effect of the treatment method.Methods From June 2010 to June 2012,80 patients were diagnosed with multiple myeloma as the research object in Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Haining,randomly divided into control group and observation group,with 40 cases in each group.The control group adopted conventional chemotherapy,the observation group were given low dose thalidomide combined with conventional chemotherapy.The clinical effect and adverse drug reactions were compared. Results The total effective rate of observation group (87.5%)was significantly higher than that of control group(65.0%)(P<0.05).The adverse reactions were 87.5%(35/40)in observation group and 100.0%(40/40)in control group,there was no significant difference between the two groups.The mean progression-free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS)in observation group(5.5 ±1.2 months;1 1.5 ±2.4 months)were higher than those in control group(3.7 ±0.8 months;8.5 ±1.3 months)(P<0.05 ). Conclusion Low dose thalidomide combined with conventional chemotherapy in the treatment of multiple myeloma can improve clinical effect and decrease recurrence rate,with high safety and less adverse reactions.
