Objective To investigate the toxic effect of nona-ferroso-ferric oxide(Nano-Fe_3O_4),nano-silicon dioxide(Nano- SiO_2)and single walled carbon nanotubes(SWCNTs)on the lung and mechanism in rats.Methods Fourty-nine Wistar rats were randomly divided into 7 groups,the control group,low and high dose groups of three nanomaterials.The rats were exposed by intratracheal instillation once two days for 5 weeks,and then killed by abdominal aorta bloodletting.The pathology of lung,lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),total antioxidant capacity(T-AOC),superoxide dismutase(SOD),malondialdehyde(MDA),interleukin-1(IL- l),interleukin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?)in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were determined.Results The fibrous tubercle and the matrix inflammation of lung tissue was found in the experimental groups.The activities of T-AOC and SOD decreased while IL-6 concentration increased significantly in the experimental groups(P

Objective:To summarize the drug repercussion data in outpatient pharmacy and analyze the reasons to provide sugges-tions for the improvement. Methods: The information was collected from the hospital information system ( HIS) during January 1, 2013 and December 31, 2015, including drug name, category, quantity, amount, reasons for drug repercussion and the other statisti-cal data. Results:During the three years, the number of prescription drugs, amount of money and varieties of drug repercussion were increased. The most common reasons for drug repercussion were the other reasons, withdrawn by doctors and the request of patients. The sum of drug repercussion was positively correlated with the drug price and the amount of drug repercussion. Conclusion:The op-tion simplicity for drug repercussion in HIS is the main reason for drug repercussion bythe other reasons. The occurrence of drug re-percussion should be intervened by such methods as gradually improving the HIS, establishing intervention measures, enhancing the professional quality of pharmacists and so on.

Objective To explore the value of neutiophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin ( NGAL) taken from blood and urine samples in early diagnosis of acute kidney injury ( AKI) after heart valves replacement surgeries. Meth-ods A total of 56 patients received heart valves replacement surgeries were selected prospectively in this study. NGAL from blood and urine samples and serum creatinine ( Scr) were tested among them at different moments. AKI and non-AKI groups were divided based on Scr levels and the value of NGAL taken from blood and urine sam-ples was estimated in early diagnosis of AKI with receiver operating characteristic curve ( ROC) . Results 16 AKIs were observed among all of them. The peak value of Scr in AKI group was shown between 12 and 24 hours after surgeries, while blood-NGAL was seen high significantly (P<0.05) since 2 hours after surgeries, peak value at 4 hours, for urine-NGAL, peak value was seen at 2 hours. The area of ROC of blood-NGAL 4 hours and urine-NGAL 2 hours after surgeries for AKI diagnosis were 0.891 and 0.934, respectively. The better sensitivity and specificity were shown in both threshold set as 50 μg/L and 110 μg/L. Conclusion Blood-NGAL and urine-NGAL can be used as early diagnostic markers of AKI after heart valves replacement surgeries, whose change is significantly earli-er than that of Scr.

Mini-clinical evaluation exercise(Mini-CEX) is a new tool used to evaluate clinical skill of internal residents.Through necessity,operation and practice of Mini-CEX applied in internal residents' clinical teaching,the paper makes it known that Mini-CEX is consistent with six requisitions of resident competence raised by Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).It increases medical and directorial quality,and is combined with doctor training abroad.Mini-CEX should be spread in training and examination of internal residents.

Objective To investigate the possible mechanism of scutellarin on the apoptosis of human tongue squa?mous carcinoma Tca8113 cells. Methods Human tongue squamous carcinoma Tca8113 cells were divided into control group and scutellarin groups (80, 120 and 160 mg/L). Tunel method was used to detect the apoptosis. Immunohistochemistry and Western blot assay was used to detect the caspase-8 protein expression of cells. Results (1)The apoptotic rates of Tca8113 cells were significantly high in scutellarin groups (80, 120 and 160 mg/L) than those in control group [(17.63 ± 0.25)%, (36.23±0.36)%, (51.84±0.58)%vs (4.45±0.27)%, P<0.05].(2)Compared with control group, the expressions of cas?pase-8 protein were significantly increased in different concentrations (80, 120 and 160 mg/L) of scutellarin groups (0.283± 0.040 vs 0.474±0.031, 0.592±0.077, 0.781±0.020,P<0.05). Conclusion Scutellarin could obviously induce the apoptosis of human tongue squamous carcinoma Tca8113 cells, which may be related to the caspase-8 protein expression.

Objective To explore the mechanism ofJiedu Qingfei Mixture for airway mucus hypersecretion of rat models with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods Airway instilling lipopolysaccharide combining fuming method was used to establish COPD models. Forty clean level Wistar strain rats were randomly divided into blank control group, model group,Jiedu Qingfei group, and clarithromycin group. Model group, Jiedu Qingfei group, and clarithromycin group were given normal saline,Jiedu Qingfei Mixture, and clarithromycin by gavage respectively, while the blank control group was raised normally for 30 d. All rats were killed on the 31st day for taking lung tissue (6 rats from each group were chosen randomly). Pathological changes of lung tissue and mucous glands hyperplasia were observed by HE staining method. NE and MUC5AC mRNA expression on lung tissue were detected by RT-PCR method. Protein expressions of NE and MUC5AC on pulmonary tissue and airway epithelium were detected by immunohistochemical method.Results Compared with blank control group, mucous glands hyperplasia on airway epithelium, mRNA expression of NE and MUC5AC in lung tissue, and protein expressions of NE and MUCA5C on airway epithelium in the model group significantly increased (P<0.05,P<0.01). Compared with model group, mucous glands hyperplasia on airway epithelium inJiedu Qingfei group significantly decreased (P<0.01), as same as clarithromycin group;Jiedu Qingfei group showed better effects on down-regulating NE and MUC5AC mRNA expression in lung tissue compared with clarithromycin group. MUC5AC protein expression on airway epithelium inJiedu Qingfei group significantly decreased (P<0.05), as same as clarithromycin group.Jiedu Qingfei group and clarithromycin group had no difference on NE protein expression in airway epithelium compared with model group.Conclusion Jiedu Qingfei group Mixture can reduce airway mucus hypersecretion of COPD by down-regulating MUC5AC expression through neutrophil elastase.

Objective To observe the effects of Qingjin Huatan Decoction on EGFR/MAPK signaling pathway of airway mucus hypersecretion rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods Intratracheal instillation of LPS combined with smudging method was used to establish COPD airway mucus hypersecretion rat models. Experimental rats were randomly divided into blank group, model group, Qingjin Huatan Decoction group and clarithromycin group. The blank group was normally fed, while the other three groups were given NS, Qingjin Huatan Decoction, and clarithromycin respectively for gavage, once a day for 30 days. All rats were killed on the 31st day, and pathological changes of lung tissue and mucous glands hyperplasia were observed by HE staining method. The gene expressions of EGFR and MUC5AC in lung tissue were detected by RT-PCR method. The protein expressions of P-EGFR, P-ERK, P-JNK, P-p38 and MUC5AC in pulmonary tissue and airway epithelium were detected by immunohistochemical method. Results Compared with the blank group, mucous glands hyperplasia on airway epithelium, protein expressions of P-EGFR, P-ERK, P-JNK, P-p38 and MUC5AC on airway epithelium significantly increased in the model group (P<0.01); gene expression of MUC5AC of lung tissue increased (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, mucous glands hyperplasia on airway epithelium, P-p38, P-ERK and MUC5AC protein expression on airway epithelium in Qingjin Huatan Decoction group significantly decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01); the protein expression of P-JNK increased significantly (P<0.01). EGFR and MUC5AC mRNA in lung tissue in Qingjin Huatan Decoction group decreased significantly (P<0.01). Conclusion Qingjin Huatan Decoction can reduce airway mucus hepersecrection of COPD by inhibiting ERK and p38 signal pathway on EGFR downstream.
