Objective To investigate the role of protein kinase C (PKC) in mechanical ventilation-induced lung injury in rats.Methods Thirty healthy male Wistar rats,weighing 250-300 g,were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =6 each):control group (group C),small tidal volume group (group S),small tidal volume and PKC inhibitor group (group S + P),large tidal volume group (group L),and large tidal volume and PKC inhibitor group (group L + P).VT =42 ml/kg,RR =40 bpm,I∶E =1∶ 2,PEEP =0,FiO2 =21％ in groups L and L + P,while VT=7 ml/kg,RR=40 bpm,I∶E=1∶2,PEEP=0,FiO2 =21％ in groups S and S+P.The rats were only tracheostonized in group C,while the rats were mechanically ventilated for 4 h in the other four groups.PKC inhibitor bisindolylmaleinide Ⅰ 0.12 mg/kg was injected intramuscularly 1 h before anesthesia in groups S + P and L + P.The animals were sacrificed immediacy after tracheotomy in group C,and at 4 h of ventilation in the other four groups and lungs were removed for calculation of wet/dry lung weight ratio (W/D ratio) and for microscopic examination.The expression of occludin was determined in the lung tissues by Western blot.Results Compared with group C,W/D ratio was significantly increased and the expression of occludin was down-regulated in the other four groups (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group S,W/D ratio was significantly increased and the expression of occludin was down-regulated in group L,and W/D ratio was decreased and the expression of occludin was up-regulated in group S + P (P ＜ 0.01).W/D ratio was significantly lower and the expression of occludin was higher in group L + P than in group L (P ＜ 0.01).The pathological changes were attenuated in groups S + P and L + P as compared with groups S and L.Conclusion PKC is involved in mechanical ventilation-induced lung injury in rats.

Objective:To investigate whether the risk of intravesical recurrence increases in patients with upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma (UUT-UC) and diabetes mellitus (DM) after radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) with bladder cuff excision. Methods:We ret-rospectively analyzed the clinicopathological data of 282 UUT-UC patients with no history of bladder neoplasm and who underwent RNU with bladder cuff excision in the Second Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from January 2005 to December 2013. The recurrence-free survival (RFS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) were compared between the non-diabetic (233 patients) and diabetic (49 patients) patients. The factors influencing intravesical recurrence in patients with UUT-UC after RNU were analyzed. These factors included age, DM, pathologic grade, and stage. Results:Among the 282 patients included in the study, 80 (28.4%) patients developed intravesical recurrence during the median fol ow up of 41 months, and the median time to recurrence was 11 months. Non-diabetic patients had a significantly longer duration of bladder neoplasm RFS than diabetic patients (P=0.013). Multivariate analysis using Cox's regression model indicated that DM (P=0.014), renal pelvis and ureter tumor (P=0.001), and postoperative chemotherapy (P=0.024) were independent influential factors for intravesical recurrence in patients with UUT-UC after RNU with bladder cuff excision. Conclusion:DM posed an increased risk for intravesical recurrence after RNU with bladder cuff excision in patients with UUT-UC. Therefore, these patients need to be closely monitored, and their blood glucose must be controlled.

Objective To evaluate the role of Src tyrosine kinase in damage to alveolar epithelial cells caused by mechanical stretch.Methods MLE-12 cells cultured in vitro were randomly divided into 3 groups using a random number table:mechanical stretch group (group S),dimethyl sulfoxide control group (group D),and Src tyrosine kinase inhibitor PP2 group (group P).In D and P groups,dimethyl sulfoxide 30 μl/ml and PP2 100 μmol/L were added to the culture medium,respectively,and the cells were then cultured for 30 min.The cells underwent mechanical stretch for 8 h with frequency of0.5 Hz and amplitude of 20％ in the three groups.At 0,2,4 and 8 h of mechanical stretch,MLE-12 cells in 3 wells of each group were collected for determination of cell apoptosis with flow cytometry and expression of occludin using Western blot.The apoptosis rate was calculated.Results Compared with S group,no significant changes were found in the apoptosis rate and expression of occludin at each time point in group D,and the apoptosis rate was significantly decreased,and the expression of occludin was up-regulated at 2,4 and 8 h of mechanical stretch in group P.Conclusion The activation of Src tyrosine kinase is involved in damage to alveolar epithelial cells caused by mechanical stretch.

Objective To understand the infection status and molecular characteristics of Campylobacter, and to provide evidence for the prevention and control of Campylobacter infection. Methods A total of 382 stool samples from diarrhea patients in a sentinel hospital in Changping District, Beijing, were collected in 2019. Campylobacter, Salmonella, Diarrhea Escherichia coli, and Vibrio Parahaemolyticus were detected, and the isolated Campylobacter jejuni strains were analyzed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Results The positive detection rate of Campylobacter (58 strains, 15.18%) was higher than that of Diarrhea Escherichia coli (37 strains, 9.69%), Salmonella (24 strains, 6.28%) and Vibrio Parahaemolyticus (21 strains, 5.50%), and the difference was statistically significant (χ²=26.735, P=0.000). Campylobacter strains were found in spring (14.71%), summer (18.33%), autumn (15.00%) and winter (10.00%), but there was no significant difference (χ²=2.197, P=0.533). PFGE analysis showed that 30 strains of Campylobacter jejuni had 26 PFGE patterns, and the similarity coefficient was 31.00% -100.00%. Conclusion In the study, the detection rate of Campylobacter is in the first place, and it is detected in four seasons, indicating that the infection of Campylobacter is serious in Changping District of Beijing. It is necessary to pay more attention to the infection of Campylobacter and formulate corresponding policies to prevent the outbreak caused by Campylobacter infection..

Objective To evaluate the application of inguinal incision in retroperitoneal laparoscopic nephroureterectomy(LNU)in the treatment of upper urinary urothelial carcinoma(UUUC).Methods From Mar.2007 to Jan.2012,186 retroperitoneal LNU procedures on 115 males and 71 females for the treatment of UUUC were performed in our institute.All cases were grouped as inguinal incision group(n =112)and lumbar incision group(n =74)according to specimen retrieval incision.Operative time,estimated blood loss,postoperative analgesia,hospital stay,incision complications,cosmetic satisfaction and tumor recurrence were compared between the 2 groups.Results All the 186 cases of operation were successfully accomplished.There were no differences in tumor stage,tumor grade,mean operative time,blood loss between the 2 groups.In inguinal incision group,the incidence of incision fat liquefaction,incision hernia,incision bulging,lumboabdominal unsymmetry and postoperative analgesia was less than that of lumbar incision group.In inguinal incision group,the mean hospital stay was shorter,cosmetic satisfaction(Ⅰ/Ⅱ/Ⅲ)was better(7/24/81 versus 22/18/34,P ＜ 0.01).Recurrence rate of UUUC in middle and inferior segment of ureter was fewer than that of lumbar incision group(5.3％ versus 35.0％,P ＜0.01).Conclusion Retroperitoneal LNU for UUUC combined with inguinal incision offers advantage of less trauma,less complications,higher cosmetic satisfaction and lower tumor recurrence.
