Objective To study the efficacy and safety of nanometer perfluorocarbon (PFC) in the treatment of hemorrhagic shock, and its role in protecting cerebral cortex nerve cells.Methods Hemorrhagic shock was induced in New Zealand rabbits by arterial bleeding. In the course of the experiment, heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure, blood gases, hepatic and renal function, and pathological changes in cerebral cortex were observed. Results The survival rate of animals in the experimental group at 12 hours was higher than that of control group, respiration was deeper and respiratory rate was faster, blood pressure and PaO 2 were significantly higher than that in animals of the control group. There was a tendency of acidosis in the control group. Pupil reflex was more sensitive in the experimental group, and hepatic and renal functions were better in the experimental group than that in control group. Pathological observation showed the cerebral cortex was less damaged in the treatment group than that in control group. Conclusions Nanometer PFC was effective in combating hemorrhagic shock, showing no toxicity to liver and kidney, and it could also be used as an effective neuroprotective agent.

BACKGROUND:Deproteinized cancellous bone can be used as a new kind of bone graft material due to its wide resources andbiological characteristics if the problem of immunogen can be solved. OBJECTIVE:To study the properties of deproteinized cancellous bone following preparation with physico-chemical methods,in addition,to explore the feasibility of xenogeneic deproteinized cancellous bone used as scaffolds in bone tissue engineering. DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:A comparison observation was performed at the Heilongjiang Key Laboratory of Anti-fibrosis Biotherapy between February 2008 and January 2009. MATERIALS:Deproteinized bone was derived from pigs and goals femoral cancellous bone followed by treating with 1:1 methanol extract and 30% H2O2. METHODS:The mechanical properties of vector were examined by scanning electron-microscopy,X-rays diffraction analysis,differential scanning calorimetry,and mechanical experimental instrument. The density of third passage of human bone mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) of iliac bone was regulated to 2?108/L,vaccinated to vector,and the cell adhesion and proliferation was observed by inverted microscope and scanning electron microscope. Forty BALB/C mice were randomly dividedinto the experimental and control groups,with 20 animals in each group. Muscle behind femur was made muscle pouch,which was implanted pig deproteinized bone in the experimental group,and no other treatment in the control group. The level of serumcarnine,glutamic-oxal(o)acetic transaminase (GOT),as well as glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (GPT) were measured at weeks 12,4,8 after operation. Meanwhile,the immunogenicity of pig deproteinized bone and specimen of deproteinized bone in mice were detected at the 4 weeks after implantation. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Physicochemical properties and immunogenicity of deproteinized bone were analyzed by in vitroexperiment. And the bio-safety was evaluated by animal experiment. RESULTS:The inorganic composition of deproteinized cancellous bone was hydroxyapatite ceramic,which is identical with nature composition of human bone. It showed that deproteinized cancellous bone maintained natural network pore system and kept good mechanical property. The MSCs grew well on deproteinized cancellous bone due to its low immunogenicity and toxicity. CONCLUSION:The xenogeneic deproteinized cancellous bone is an excellent vector in bone tissue engineering.

Objective To investigate the effects of octreotide on the apoptosis of human hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and expression of Bcl-2/Bax in HSCs,and to reveal the mechanism underlying octreotide against hepatic fibrosis. Methods HSCs lines (HSC-LX2) were incubated with different concentrations of octreotide for 24 and 48 hours. Cell apoptosis was evaluated by Fitc-tunel fluorescence staining. Bcl-2 and Bax protein exoression in HSC-LX2 was detected by immunocytochemistry. Meanwhile, Bcl-2 protein of HSC-LX2 were detected by Western blot assay. Results Octreotide could promote the apoptosis of HSC-LX2, and the apoptosis rate was significantly increased with the concentration of octreotide(P < 0.05). The HSC-LX2 were incubated with the same concentration of octreotide for 24 and 48 hours, the cell apoptosis rate of 48-hour octreotide treatment was significantly higher than that of 24-hour octreotide treatment (P < 0.05). The immunocytochemistry result indicated that octreotide could significantly decrease Bcl-2 expression and increase Bax expression in HSC-LX2 (P<0.05); Western blot assay showed that octreotide could also significantly inhibit Bcl-2 expression in HSC-LX2 (P<0.05). Conclusions Octreotide could induce the apoptosis of HSCs in a dose-and time-dependent manner, the mechanism of octreotide inducing HSCs apoptosis might be associated with down-regulation of Bcl-2 and upregulation of Bax in HSC.

Objective To investigate correlations between nursing students’discrimination on psychopaths and exposure to them.Method One hundred and twenty-one nursing students were involved in the investigation by a general information questionnaire,a discrimination against mental patients scale(DAMPS)and an exposure to mental patients scale(FLS).Results The total mean score on discrimination,scores on isolation dimension and scores on capability were all significantly lower than the norms(all P<0.01).Negative correlation was observed between nursing students’discrimination against patients and exposure to patients(r=-0.31,P<0.05). Conclusion Measures should be taken to encourage nurses to understand patients so as to alleviate their discrimination.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of selenium(Se)and/or vitamin E(VE)on the NO and NOS in heart,liver,kidney and serum of experimental hyperlipidemic rats.METHODS:SD rats were divided into5groups,administreated by Se and/or VE.After4weeks,the NO contents and NOS activities in heart,liver,kidney and serum were assayed by NO kit and NOS kit respectively.RESULTS:NO contents and NOS activities could be reduced in heart,liver,but increased in serum and kidney by high-fat feed(HFF).Meanwhile,VE and/or Se could increase the NO contents in all the experimental samples and NOS activities in heart,liver and kidney(P

Objective To investigate the effects of icarrin on the activity and protein expression of core binding factor otl(Cbfa1) in rat osteoblasts cultured in vitro,and to explore whether mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway is involved in this process.Methods Calvarial osteoblasts were obtained from newborn (<24 h) SD rats by trypsin-coUagenase digestion method.The second generation osteoblasts were cultured in the medium containing icariin (10 ng/ml) or estradiol (10-8 mol/L) with or without extracellular-signal regulated kinase (ERK) inhibitor (UO126) or p38MAPK inhibitor (SB203580).Nuclear protein was extracted from osteoblasts.And then the activity of Cbfa1 was detected by ELISA.The amounts of Cbfa1 protein were detected by Western blot.Results Calvarial osteoblasts were obtained successfully and were used in this study after indentified by alkaline phosphatase and mineralized nodus staining.Cbfa1 expression and the activity in osteoblasts were up-regulated by both icariin and estradiol (P<0.05).The effects were partly inhibited by addition of U0126or SB203580 (P<0.05).Conclusions Either icarrin or estradiol can stimulate the proliferation and maturation of cultured osteoblasts in vitro via up-regulating the activity and expression of Cbfal.The MAPK signal pathway inhibitor seems to partly decrease Cbfa1 activity.It suggests that MAPK pathway may be involved in the transduction of icariin's impact on proliferation and mineralization of osteoblasts.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect and safety of tandospirone and buspirone in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder.Methods The clinical control study oftandospirone and buspirone in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder was earched by PubMed,CBM,CNKI,VIP,and Wanfang Data,with deadline from January 2000 to June 2016.Meta-analysis was carried out using RevMan5.0 software to each effect index.Results A total of seven RCTs were included involving 615 patients were identified.Meta-analysis showed that the significant efficiency rate[P=0.34,OR=1.19,95％CI (0.83～1.69)] and HAMA[P=0.80,MD=-0.08,95％CI (-0.72～0.56)] of tandospirone and buspirone had no significant difference.Two groups of adverse drug reactions,dizzy,dry,constipine,insomnia,anorexia,and nausea had no significant difference (P＞0.05).Conclusion The efficacy and adverse reaction oftandospirone and buspirone in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder are fairly.

Objective:To evaluate the benefit of autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) as a consolidation therapy in the survival of multiple myeloma (MM) patients at different risks. Methods:A total of 67 MM patients who received ASCT as consolida-tion therapy between August 2006 and July 2011 were enrolled in the retrospective study. The cases were divided into three risk groups on the basis of the International Staging System and fluorescence in situ hybridization. Another 67 patients who accepted consolidation chemotherapy at the same period were selected as case-paired controls matched in terms of age, sex, optimal response after induction, and risk stratifications. All the patients received bortezomib-and/or thalidomide-based induction therapies. Results:No statistical differ-ences in non-complete remission (nCR)/complete remission (CR) rate were observed between the ASCT and chemotherapy groups (44.8%vs. 37.3%, P=0.380) after the induction therapy. The progression-free survival (PFS) was longer in the ASCT group than in the chemotherapy group (32.4 months vs. 15.1 months, P<0.001). The overall survival (OS) was longer in the ASCT group than in the che-motherapy group (58.8 months vs. 42.1 months, P=0.009). both the PFS (median:30.5 months vs. 11.2 months, P<0.001) and the OS (median:85.5 months vs. 34 months, P=0.015) rates were significantly prolonged in the high-risk subgroup after ASCT. In the interme-diate-risk subgroup, neither PFS nor OS showed any significance after ASCT (P>0.05). In the low-risk subgroup, only PFS was extend-ed (median: 34.8 months vs. 17.6 months, P=0.012) after ASCT, without significant improvements in the OS (P>0.05). Conclusion:The MM patients obtained cytogenetic high-risk benefits mostly from ASCT consolidation after inductions based on novel agents.

Objective To investigate the influence of stigma on QOL of patients with mental disorders.Methods By using Link stigma series scale and schizophrenic quality of life scale,we assessed and analyzed 406 psychiatric patients′stigma and QOL, as well as the correlation and influence between them.Results The score of perceived devaluation-discrimination dimension of the stigma scale had positive correlation with total score of QOL,score of psycho-social dimension and score of motivation and energy dimension (P <0.05).The scores of challenge dimension and separation dimension in the stigma scale had positive correlation with motivation and energy dimension of the QOL scale (P <0.05).Regression analysis showed that stigma did not have influence on QOL of patients with mental disorders.Conclusion Stigma in psychiatric patients has no significant influence on QOL,but correla-tion relationship exists between them.The higher score of perceived devaluation-discrimination dimension,challenge dimension and separation dimension of stigma scale,the poor QOL the patient would have.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of perospirone versus risperidone in the treatment of schizophrenia,and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment.METHODS:Retrieved from Wanfang database,VIP,CJFD,CBM and PubMed,randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of perospirone(trial group) vs.risperidone (control group) in the treatment of schizophrenia were collected.After data extraction and quality evaluation of included studies according to modified Jadad evaluation criteria,Meta-analysis of response indexes was performed by using Rev Man 5.0 statistical software.RESULTS:A total of 12 RCTs were included,involving 1 050 patients.Results of Meta-analysis showed,the cure rate of 2 groups had no statistical significance [OR=0.99,95％CI(075,1.30),P=0.93].The incidences of extrapyramidal reactions [OR=0.63,95％CI(0.43,0.92),P=0.02],the incidences of prolactin levels increasing [OR=0.23,95％CI(0.14,0.38),P＜0.001] and the incidences of weight gain [OR=0.23,95％CI(0.13,0.39),P＜0.001] in control group were significantly higher than trial group,with statistical significance (P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS:The therapeutic efficacy of perospirone and risperidone is similar in the treatment of schizophrenia,but the safety of perospirone is better than that of risperidone.
