Objective To explore the effects of Baogan Jiedu Granule on lipid peroxidation of free radicals in acute liver injury mice induced by tripterygium glycosides.Methods Totally 60 mice were randomly divided into tripterygium glycosides model group,large-dose,medium-dose and small-dose groups of Baogan Jiedu Granule,Ganlixin group and control group.Each group was respectively perfused with the corresponding drug for 5 days and tripterygium glycosides were perfused once to make the model.The serum levels of ALT,AST,SOD,MDA and GSH-Px were measured.Results The serum levels of SOD and GSH-Px in model group decreased and MDA rose obviously.Compared with model group,Baogan Jiedu Granule of all doses could effectively decrease ALT,AST and MDA level and obviously improve GSH-Px level in each group.In addition,in the large-dose group SOD level was markedly improved(P

Objective To investigat the changes of hemodynamics and arterial blood gas during the establishment of ECMO model and provide an ideal platform for the study of the mechanism of DCD protection using ECMO, a porcine model of controlled donors of cardiac death (CDCD) with extracorporeal support was established in the paper. Methods Eight domestic crossbred pigs were anes-thetized, atracurium (1mg/kg) and heparin (150~200 U/kg) was administered and the ventilator was discontinued while the animal was under deep anesthesia to kill the animal.Meanwhile, blood was drained from the left jugular vein catheter into the ECMO circuit and re-turned into the left femoral artery to establish the porcine model of CDCD with extracorporeal support . The average blood press and arterial blood gas were ministered at normal, cardiac arrest and ECMO supporting 1 h, 3 h and 5 h. Results The model of CDCD with extra-corporeal support was established successfully.Two animals restored the beating of the heart and the high doses of potassium chloride were given untill cardiac arrest during extracorporeal support.Blood gases throughout the apneic time showed a severe hypoxemia and acidosis, pH and PaO2 reduced to 7.09 ±0.24 and 5.3 ±0.93mmHg respective-ly, which can be improved during extracorporeal support.MAP and PaO2 were maintained over 300mmHg and 65mmHg respectively. Conclusion A new porcine model of controlled donors of cardiacdeath with extracorporeal support has been successfully established and showed to be feasible for related pathophysiological research work.

Objective To evaluate the effect of extracorporeal membranous oxygenation (ECMO) on the small bowel preservation in a porcine model of controlled donors after cardiac death (CDCD).Method The domestic crossbred donor pigs were anesthetized and ventilated with 100％ oxyger.An intravenous cannula was placed through iliac arteries and jugular vein,and connected to ECMO system.The ECMO was performed to infuse abdominal organs when cardiac death was declared.Pathology,electron microscope,energy metabolism and cell apoptosis level of intestinal mucosa were evaluated before operation,in cardiac death and at the end of extracorporeal support,respectively.Result The normothermic extracorporeal support could quickly restore graft blood supply and oxygenation.One-h extracorporeal support could improve the energy status in intestine of donation after cardiac death (DCD).The histologic damage and apoptosis of 1-h extracorporeal support had no significant difference with those before operation and in cardiac death (P＞0.05).With the extension of extracorporeal support,the intestinal mucosa damage degree was gradually increased,and the content of adenosine triphosphate in intestinal mucosa reduced gradually.Conclusion The normothermic extracorporeal support for 1 h in DCD is beneficial for improving the viability of small bowel.However,the integrity of intestinal mucosa is destroyed gradually as extracorporeal supporting time over,which may be initiated by the activation of intestinal epithelial apoptosis.

Objective To evaluate the effect of tacalcitol on the proliferation,adhesion,migration and c-kit mRNA expression of cultured human epidermal melanocytes.Methods Cultured epidermal melanocytes from the prepuce of adolescent males were treated with various concentrations of tacalcitol.Then,cell proliferation was evaluated by tetrazolium salt (XTT) assay after 24,48 and 72 hours of treatment,adhesive activity by using fibronectin-coated culture plates after 72 hours,migratory activity by Transwell assay using a microporous membrane after 24 hours,and the c-kit mRNA expression was semiquantitatively analyzed by reverse transcription PCR after 72 hours of treatment.Statistical analysis was done by repeated-measure analysis of variance and completely random design analysis of variance.Results As repeated-measure analysis of variance showed,tacalcitol of 10-10,10-9,10-8,10-7 and 10-6 mol/L significantly promoted the proliferation of melanocytes (F =9.47,P ＜ 0.01),with significant differences in the promoting effect among various durations of treatment with different concentrations of tacalcitol (F =14.44,P ＜ 0.01),and with significant interaction effect between drug concentration and treatment duration (F =2.47,P ＜ 0.01).The highest proliferation level was observed in melanocytes treated with tacalcitol of 10-s mol/Lfor 72 hours.There was a significant increase in the adhesion rate of human epidermal melanocytes to fibronectin after treatment with tacalcitol of 10-8-10-7 mol/L for 72 hours (both P ＜ 0.01),number of melanocytes migrating through micropore membranes per high-power field (× 200) after treatment with tacalcitol of 10-9-10-8 mol/L for 24 hours (both P ＜ 0.01),and in the c-kit mRNA expression in melanocytes treated with tacalcitol of 10-9-10-7mol/L for 72 hours (all P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Tacalcitol can promote melanocytes to proliferate,migrate,express c-kit mRNA,and adhere to fibronectin.

The rats were assigned to blank control group, classical induction group, and drynaria total flavonoid group. Whole bone marrow culture method was applied to isolate and purify rats bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Akaline phosphatase activity, calcium nodes, TGF-β1 and BMP-2 secretion in the process of bone mesenchymal stem cells osteogenic differentiation were detected. The results showed that compared to the blank group and classical group, drynaria total flavonoid promoted osteogenic differentiation accompanied with increased TGF-β1 and BMP-2 secretion (all P＜0. 05). Drynaria total flavonoid may promote osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs via upregulating TGF-β1 and BMP-2 expressions, and play an active role in the treatment of osteoporosis.

Objective To explore the application effect of the experiential learning in the soft skills training of nursing students. Methods Using convenient sampling method to select one grade nursing students form a school in Guangzhou as the research objects, two classes were divided into the control group and the experimental group. The experimental group was trained by experiential learning, and the control group was trained by traditional teaching methods. After the training, the differences of nursing soft skills between the two groups were compared to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of experiential learning in improving nursing soft skills. Results After training, the total score of nursing soft skills in the experimental group was 156.94 ± 13.97 and the control group was 150.61 ± 12.58, the difference was statistically significant (t=-2.039,P<0.05). Nearly 91.4%(32/35) of nursing students were satisfied or very satisfied with the training methods of experiential learning and nursing students thought that ability or cognitive were promoted and the top three were: interpersonal communication ability, cognition of nursing soft skills, and nursing service etiquette. Nearly 82.9% (29/35) of nursing students expressed that they were willing to receive nursing soft skills training in experiential learning. Conclusions Experiential learning can effectively improve nursing soft skills of nursing students and it is suitable for promotion and application in nursing teaching.

Objective:To investigate the clinical manifestations, imaging features, histopathological features, diagnostic pitfalls, treatment and prognosis of clear cell chondrosarcoma (CCCS).Methods:23 cases of CCCS admitted and operated from January 2010 to January 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. Among the 23 cases, 21 were males and 2 were females. There were 8 cases (35%) aged 21-40, 10 cases (43%) aged 41-60 and 5 cases (23%) aged 61-80. There were 8 femurs, 7 pelvis, 4 thoracolumbar spine, 3 sacrum and 1 tibia. The specimens were fixed with 10% phosphate-buffered formalin, decalcified with 5% nitric acid, embedded in paraffin and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and immunohistochemistry (Envision). The preoperative imaging and clinical symptoms, and the postoperative histopathological and immunophenotype under the microscope were collected. And the relevant literature was reviewed to summarize the clinical, imaging and pathomorphological characteristics of CCCS.Results:23 cases of CCCS showed bone destruction in imaging, some cases were well-circumscribed lytic lesions, some cases had sclerotic margin. The serum alkaline phosphatase was increased in 7 patients before operation. The tumor tissue was gray-white and gray-red in general and some cases showed porcelain white cartilage-like areas. Microscopically, the tumor cells are round or polygonal, some of them have clear cytoplasm and boundary, some of them are eosinophilic, some of them have round and centrally located nuclei, and mitotic image is rare. It is often seen that there are nodular distribution of cartilage-like matrix and immature woven bone, multinucleated osteoclast-like giant cell scattered in those components. Immunohistochemical staining: S-100, D2-40, EMA, Vimentin, p16, SATB2 can be positive in varying degrees. The surgical treatment is mainly through en bloc excision. 10 patients had recurrence and no distant metastasis.Conclusion:CCCS is a rare subtype of chondrosarcoma, which has low-grade malignant biological behavior and is easy to be misdiagnosed clinically and pathologically. Pathological diagnosis needs to be careful. Careful observation of microscopic histology is necessary in order to avoid over-diagnosis of osteosarcoma leading to clinical treatment errors. Once the biopsy is confirmed, it needs en bloc excision in order to reduce the recurrence rate. Long-term follow-up is needed after the operation, the overall prognosis was good.
