Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of transcriptional activator (STAT) 1 and matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)-2 in pancreatic cancer (PC). Methods The expressions of STAT1 and MMP-2 were
detected by S-P immunohistochemical methods in 115 PC patients and whose age, tumor size, lymph node metastasis, TNM stage, differentiation and survival time were also collected. Results STAT1 protein was high expressed in 52 cases and MMP-2 was high expressed in 56 cases, which were significantly related with different clinical stages, tumor differentiation and lymph node metastasis in patients with PC (P<0.05). STAT1 expression was negatively correlated with MMP-2 expression (rs =-0.50, P<0.01). Lymph node metastasis, high level of clinical stage, low expression of STAT1 showed reduced postoperative survival time in patients with PC. Conclusion The lower expression of STAT1 and higher expression of MMP-2 play an important role in the progression of PC. The expression of STAT1 has practical value in the evaluation of prognosis in patients with PC .

Objective To investigate the proliferation and invasion of human pancreatic cancer cells after Stat1 gene silenced or enhanced and to explore the possible mechanisms.Methods BxPC-3 cells were divided to three groups: Stat1 group transfected with specific Stat1 plasmid, Si Stat1 group transfected with specific Stat1 small interfering RNA (siRNA), and control group.Western blot was used to detect the expression of Stat1, VEGF, MMP-2 and MMP-9 in BxPC-3 cells.MTT method was used to detect the proliferation of BxPC-3 cells.Transwell was used to detect the invasion of BxPC-3 cells.Results The proliferation and invasion were significantly enhanced in pancreatic cancer cells after Stat1 gene silenced, and the expression of VEGF, MMP-2 and MMP-9 was increased.The proliferation and invasion were significantly decreased in pancreatic cancer cells after Stat1 gene enhanced.Conclusions Stat1 inhibits the proliferation and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells.VEGF,MMP-2 and MMP-9 possibly play a role in this process.

Objective:To analyze the willingness of clinicians to carry out clinical research and its influencing factors, and to provide a reference basis for scientifically and effectively promoting clinical research and improving the enthusiasm of clinicians.Methods:A grade A tertiary hospital in Tianjin was selected as a questionnaire unit, and clinicians were selected by simple random sampling. SPSS26.0 was utilized for the Wilcoxon rank sum test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, and generalized linear model analysis.Results:The score of willingness to carry out clinical research among 273 clinicians was 5.00. The results of multivariate analysis showed that, in terms of working time, compare with ″≥31years″, ″≤10years″, ″11~20years″, and ″21~30years″ had statistical significance in association with the scores of willingness to carry out clinical researchs, all of which were positively correlated; compared with the ″clear″ awareness of hospital medical ethics review process, ″knowing some″ had a statistical significance in association with the willingness scores with a negative correlation; compared with ″having free time″, the association between ″busy clinical work and no time″ and the willingness scores was statistically significant, and showed a negative correlation; compared with ″time devoting can get results″, the association between ″a lot of time and efforts can not achieve results in a short time″ and the score of willingness was statistically significant, and was negatively correlated; compared with ″willing″ to participate in scientific research and training, ″it does not matter″ and ″unwilling″ showed statistical significance in association with the willingness scores, and negatively correlated.Conclusions:The willingness of clinicians to conduct clinical research was affected by multiple factors. Hospitals should emphasize the cultivation of young talents, carry out research training, and build research support teams to improve the enthusiasm for research.

Objective:In order to improve the hospital scientific research communication management level, enhance the efficiency of hospital management, a survey on the satisfaction of the scientific research communication management mechanism among the medical employees in a third-grade hospital was conducted to explore its influencing factors, as well as to provide reference for improving the scientific research communication management system.Methods:A third grade hospital in Tianjin was selected as the questionnaire survey unit, 233 people were selected by stratified sampling method to conduct the questionnaire survey on their satisfaction with the communication management mechanism. SPSS 23.0 was used for single factor chi-square test and multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results:The overall satisfaction of 233 employees surveyed was 88.4%. Single factor chi-square test results showed that different age, ″research managers actively communicate″, ″frequency″, "understanding the role of communication mechanisms″, ″understanding of the mechanisms of communication″, ″communication with senior management leadership″, ″communication mechanism in the team″, ″communication mechanism with other hospital team and departments″, ″familiar of the team plans and work progress″, ″form of obtaining scientific research information″, ″demands for obtaining scientific research information″, ″attitude towards scientific research information″ and other items had statistically significant association with satisfaction ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis results showed that ″Science management personnel actively communicate″ (OR=0.129, 95%CI: 0.020-0.851), ″medium frequency of communication frequency″ (OR=0.254, 95%CI: 0.068-0.951), ″communication mechanism can ensure that most of the information is received″ (OR=0.073, 95%CI: 0.010-0.563), ″Good communication with superior management leadership″ (OR=0.044, 95%CI: 0.005-0.361), ″Good communication mechanism in team″ (OR=0.039, 95%CI: 0.010-0.563) were protective factors of medical employees′ satisfaction. Conclusions:The overall satisfaction of the medical employees in the third grade a hospital to the scientific research communication management mechanism is relatively high. However, further measurements still need to be carried out, including strengthen the popularization of communication mechanism and conduct communication with appropriate frequency. At the same time, the hospital should pay more attention to the role of team communication in the hospital scientific research communication management mechanism. Various ways and incentive mechanisms should be adopted to improve the satisfaction of medical employees on the hospital scientific research communication and communication management mechanism, and further to improve the efficiency of scientific research, be more productive, and create greater value for the hospital.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the method for simultaneous determination of 9 components in Huichun yuzi granules. METHODS:LC-MS/MS method was adopted. The determination was performed on Shim-pack XR-ODS C18column with column temperature of 30 ℃. The sample size was 5 μL,and ion source as electrospray ion source;MRM mode was adopted. The acetonitrile-water was used as mobile phase for ferulic acid,rutin,paeonol,icariin and schisandrin(gradient elution);positive ion mode monitoring was conducted. The methanol-0.1% fomic acid water was used as mobile phase for naringin,verbascoside, amygdalin and protocatechuic acid(gradient elution);negative ion mode monitoring was conducted. RESULTS:The linear ranges of ferulic acid,rutin,paeonol,icariin,schisandrin,naringin,verbascoside,amygdalin and protocatechuic acid were 0.499 5-500, 25-1 000,0.245 9-250,5.185 1-1 000,0.981 9-1 000,0.248 1-125,2.510 4-250,10-2 500,4.999 7-1 000 ng/mL(r≥0.997 8), respectively. The limits of detection were 0.075,0.30,0.072,0.015,0.015,0.075,0.15,0.30,0.15 ng/mL,respectively;the limits of quantitation were 0.25,1.00,0.24,0.51,0.49,0.25,0.50,0.99,0.49 ng/mL,respectively. The recoveries rate were 91.39%-103.56%(RSD=1.03%-3.67%,n=6).RSDs of stability test ranged 1.4%-3.4%(n=6)within 48 h at room temperature. CONCLUSIONS:The method is rapid,sensitive and reproducible,and can be used for content determination of 9 components in Huichun yuzi granules.It can be used for quality control of Huichun yuzi granules.
