Objective To investigate the morbidity and influencing infactors of plantar fasciitis in nurses. Methods The clinical nursing staff of 829 people were included in this series. 71 people of them conform to the standard of plantar fasciitis. According to the proportion of 1:1, 71 nurses without plantar fasciitis were included in the control group. The thickness and hardness index of the plantar fascia were detected by ultrasound elasticity. The survey contents including age, the average working hours every day (h), the average standing time in working day (h), body weight, body mass index (BMI), number of night shift, average walking time every day (min) and the average weekly running time (hour) were conducted. The single factor and multi-factor regression method were used to analyze the influence factors of the onset of plantar fascia. Results 71 cases of 829 nurses were with plantar fasciitis, and the incidence was 8.56%. The thickness in observation group was (3.86±0.53) mm, which was significantly smaller than (2.67±0.39) mm of the control group (P<0.05). Hardness index was 2.01±0.23, lower than 3.83±0.70 in control group (t=14.09, P<0.05). Single factor analysis results showed that the average standing time in working day, weight, BMI, average walking time every day, the average weekly running time were different between the two groups (P<0.05). The regression equation: the plantar fascia hardness index =-25.34 + 4.78 × the average standing time in working day + 3.45 × weight + 1.22 × BMI. The equation of the ability to explain the plantar fascia hardness index reached 72.2%, and had a good effectiveness. Conclusions Body weight and BMI, prolonged standing work may induce the nurse plantar fasciitis, and they are independent risk factors.

Cytokines play an important role in the genesis and development of tumor.Antitumor mechanisms of some cytokines are clearly testified.Currently,the main cytokines used in tumor clinical treatments are interferons,interleukins and tumor necrosis factors.For the lack of specificity,there are too many side effects for some patients to continue.So the application range of cytokines in tumor clinical treatment is limited.The most important measures to develop cytokines therapy are improving the stability of curative effect and reducing side effects.

Objective To study the effects of Nitric oxide(NO),Nitric oxide synthases (NOS)on calcium-activated potassium channels (KCa) of mesenteric artery smooth muscle(SMC)between patients with essential hypertension (EH) and normotensive patients.Methods (1)Mesenteric artery branch from 21 EH and 18 normotensive patients respectively was digested by enzyme.Patch clamp technique was used to pull cell-attached and inside-out patches on mesenteric artery SMC from EH.The signal channel open number probability (Po),open dwell-time(To) and close dwell- time(Tc),were recorded.(2)The levels of plasma NO?NOS were measured by colorimetry analysis method.(3)The analysis of linear correlation was performed to estimate the relationship between the levels of plasma NO and Po?To?Tc of KCa of mesenteric artery SMC in the subjects of the two groups.Results (1)Compared to that of normotensive patients,the activities of KCa channels of patients with EH was higher.After adding Ca 2+ to cytoplasm,the Po of KCa channels in normotensive patients increased significantly.But there were few changes in EH group.(2)The levels of plasma NO?NOS were lower in EH group than in control group.(3)Linear correlation analysis showed that the levels of plasma NO were correlated positively with Po?To in normotensive patients,wherese the positive correlation were decreased in EH group.Conclusion The activities of KCa channels of patients with EH increase significantly.but the sensitivity to Ca 2+ decreased.NO?NOS may stimulate the KCa channels of normotensive and EH patients,but they may not be main factors in EH patients.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between body composition and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods:CKD patients who were hospitalized in the Department of Nephrology of Chongqing General Hospital from January 2017 to December 2019 and had complete clinical biochemical data were divided into CKD patients with CVD and CKD patients without CVD according to their medical history and corresponding auxiliary examinations. Clinical data were collected and anthropometric measurements were conducted. Skeletal muscle index (SMI), appendage lean mass/height 2, total body fat (TBF), visceral adipose tissue (VAT), bone mineral capacity, bone mineral density and et al, were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. T test, U test and Chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between body composition and CVD. Results:A total of 604 CKD patients were included in this study, including 560 patients (92.7%) with CKD stage 3, 44 patients (7.3%) with CKD stage 4, and 180 CKD patients with CVD (29.8%), 424 CKD patients without CVD (70.2%). Compared with CKD patients without CVD, the proportion of men, the proportion of hypertension, the proportion of diabetes, age, duration of CKD, systolic blood pressure, blood uric acid, waist to hip ratio and waist circumference were higher (all P<0.05), while low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were lower in CKD patients with CVD (all P<0.05). In terms of body composition, SMI ( t=-11.964, P<0.001) and body mass index ( t=-4.462, P<0.001) in CKD patients with CVD were significantly lower than those in CKD patients without CVD, but VAT ( t=3.089, P=0.002) and TBF ( t=5.177, P<0.001) in CKD patients with CVD were significantly higher. After adjusting for confounders such as age, CKD duration, hypertension history, diabetes history, LDL-C, body mass index, eGFR, TBF, etc. by multivariate logistic regression analysis, the risk of CKD patients suffering from CVD increased significantly with the decrease of SMI [with SMI high tertile (36.37%-50.80%) as reference, SMI middle tertile (28.23%-36.31%): OR=1.49, 95% CI 1.24-1.71, P=0.003; SMI low tertile (15.28%-28.19%): OR=2.17, 95% CI 1.79-2.62, P<0.001], and VAT was not found to be associated with the risk of CVD in CKD patients ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Reduction of SMI is independently associated with CVD in CKD patients.

Objective To observe the learning and memory changes in coal-burning type of fluorosis rats, detect the expressions of neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor(nAChR) at mRNA and protein levels in rat brains and to reveal the mechanism of changed learning and memory ability. Methods Twenty-four healthy SD rats, weighting 100 - 120 g, were randomly divided into three groups(8 in each). Control group was fed with normal diet, and low- and high-dose fluoride groups were fed with corn polluted with high fluoride (fluoride were 11.30,104.20 mg/kg, respectively) during drying processes with local burning-coal from the areas of endemic fluorosis to established rat model of chronic fluorosis. After exposed to fluoride for 6 months, behavioral changes were measured by Morris water maze. Animals were sacrificed, the brain was taken, after homogenizing the fluoride content of brain tissue was determined by fluoride ion selective electrode. The α3, α4 and α7 nAChR subunits at mRNA and protein levels were analyzed by real-time PCR and Western blotting, respectively. Results For rats in low- and high-fluoride groups, the escape latency time[(12.42 ± 8.03),(17.48 ± 8.05)s] was significantly longer than that in the control[(7.04 ± 3.29)s, all P< 0.05]. For rats in high-fluoride group, the numbers of crossing the platforms (1.62 ± 0.87) and the time of staying at the platforms[(16.70 ± 5.02)s] were significantly decreased as compared to that of control[3.53 ± 1.67, (23.33 ± 5.35)s, all P < 0.05]. The fluoride content in rat brain tissue in low- or high-fluoride groups [(1.14 ± 0.04), (1.79 ± 0.04)mg/kg] was significantly higher than that of control [ (0.52 ± 0.05) mg/kg, all P < 0.05]; in addition, the amount of fluoride in brain tissue of high-fluoride group was significantly higher than that of low-fluoride group(P < 0.05). In high-fluoride group, the mRNA expressions of α3, α4 and α7 nAChR subunits in rat brains(1.51 ± 0.20,1.45 ± 0.06,1.63 ± 0.08) were significantly lower as compared to controls (1.79 ± 0.11,1.66 ± 0.14,1.83 ± 0.06, all P< 0.05); whereas there were no significant changes in mRNA levels of these receptor subunits of the rat brains between low-fluoride group(1.65 ± 0.17,1.59 ± 0.09,1.71 ± 0.03) and controls (all P > 0.05). Furthermore, the protein levels of α3, α4 and α7 nAChR subunits in rat brains of highfluoride group(0.58 ± 0.13,0.16 ± 0.03,1.41 ± 0.38) and low-fluoride group(0.56 ± 0.23,0.08 ± 0.02,0.51 ± 0.16) were significantly lower than those of controls( 1.48 ± 0.42,0.57 ± 0.21,2.56 ± 0.26, P<0.05 or < 0.01). Conclusions Decreased ability of learning and memory in coal-burning type of fluorosis rats may be associated with declined expressions of nAChR at proteins and mRNA levels, which might be the main mechanism of the behavior change.
