Objective To investigate the mechanism of interlekin-6 (IL-6) in wound healing of human biliary epithelial cells ( BECs ).Methods BECs were cultured in IL-6 at different concentrations:0 ng/L(0 ng/L group),10 ng/L (10 ng/L group),50 ng/L (50 ng/L group),100 ng/L (100 ng/L group),1000 ng/L ( 1000 ng/L group).The effects of IL-6 on the phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3( STAT3 ) and the expression of trefoil family factors 3 (TFF3) were detected.BECs were divided into untreated group,STAT3-RNAi group (BECs transfected with STAT3 RNAi adenovirus) and Control-RNAi group (BECs transfected with vacant RNAi adenovirus).The effects of IL-6 on the expression of TFF3 were detected after RNAi of STAT3.In vitro wound models were constructed for the untreated group,STAT3-RNAi group and Control-RNAi group,and the effects of IL-6 and TFF3 on BECs of the 3 groups were detected.All data were analyzed by using the Student's t test,analysis of variance or Sidak test.Results The expressions of phosphorylated STAT3 in the 50 ng/L group,100 ng/L group and 1000 ng/L group were 0.240 ± 0.052,0.714 ± 0.124,0.327 ± 0.069,respectively,which were significantly higher than 0.033 ± 0.011 of the 0 ng/L group (q =5.246,17.260,7.451,P < 0.05 ).The contents of mRNA and protein of TFF3 increased as the increase of IL-6 concentration (q =12.045,9.889,P < 0.05).After RNAi of STAT3 of the BECs,the expression of TFF3 decreased when the concentration of IL-6 was 1000 ng/L.The expression of TFF3 of the STAT3-RNAi group was 0.037 ± 0.005,which was significantly lower than 0.267 ± 0.038 of the Control-RNAi group and 0.301 ± 0.042 in the untreated group ( q =12.135,13.929,P < 0.05 ).In the in vitro wound model,the speed of BECs migration in the STAT3-RNAi group was (9.1 ± 1.5 ) μm/h,which was slower than (25.1 ± 3.8 ) μm/h of the Control-RNAi group after 12 hours of interference with IL-6 (q =7.737,P < 0.05 ).The speed of BECs migration of STAT3-RNAi group was (39.2 ± 4.7) μm/h after adding 1 g/L of recombinant TFF,which was significantly faster than that of the Control-RNAi group (q =14.507,P <0.05).Conclusion IL-6 promotes cell migration and wound healing by activating STAT3 and up-regulating TFF3 expression.

Objective:To investigate the effect of care bundles on prevention of nasal medical device-related pressure injury in patients with nasotracheal intubation undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery under general anesthesia.Methods:This was a retrospective study. Using the convenient sampling method, patients with a surgical time more than 4 hours and a surgical grade of 3 or 4, with nasotracheal intubation undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery under general anesthesia from Hospital of Stomatology, Sun Yat-sen University were selected. A total of 96 patients from July to December 2019 were in the control group, and 99 patients from July to December 2020 were selected as the observation group. The control group was treated with routine nursing measures, the observation group was subjected to a nursing care bundle. The incidence of nasal pressure injury was observed after the operation, 24, 48, 72 hours after the nasotracheal intubation was removed, and patients′ satisfaction score was compared.Results:The incidence of nasal pressure injury in the control group was 6.25% (6/96). None of the patients in the observation group had any pressure injury, which was significantly lower than the control group (Fisher exact probability method, P=0.013). The satisfaction scores in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (26.88 ± 1.94 vs 24.71 ± 3.33), the difference was statistically significant ( t=-5.54, P<0.01). Conclusions:The care bundle can effectively prevent the occurrence of nasal pressure injury in patients undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery with nasotracheal intubation and improve patient satisfaction.
