Objective To study the expression of aquaporins-4 (AQP4) in the brain tissue of rats with pancreatic encephalopathy (PE) induced by phospholipase A2 and to explore the role of aquaporins-4 in PE.Methods Twenty five healthy Wistar rats were randomized into 3 groups:blank group ( n =5),PE group (n =10 ) and control group (n =10 ).The experimental model was established in rats by injecting phospholipase A2 into carotid artery (0.1 ml/100 g body weight).Same amount of normal saline was used in the control group and no treatment was used in the blank group.One day later,the rats were sacrificed,then the measurement of brain tissue wet/dry (W/D) weight ratio was performed,and brain tissue was routinely pathologically examined,immunohistochemistry and Western blotting were performed in each group to detect the expression of aquaporins-4.Results There was no obvious brain tissue pathological change in the control group and blank group.Neurons in the brain tissue of PE rats presented with significant edema and ballooning degeneration,infiltration of inflammatory cells,leukocyte aggregation around the microvessels.The water contents in the brain tissue in the blank group and control group,PE group were (61.44 ±0.36)％,(63.20±0.32)％ and (78.33 ±0.24)％,and it was significantly higher in PE group than that in the control and blank group (P＜0.05).The expressions of aquaporins-4 in the brain tissue were 0.41 ±0.27,0.49 ±0.13,0.98 ±0.21,respectively,and it was significantly increased in PE group than that in the control and blank group (P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions Aquaporins-4 may play important roles in the pathogenesis of pancreatic encephalopathy.

The classification of social capital involved in health information construction was proposed according to the connotation of social capital and health information construction, and the comprehensiveness, broadness, coop-erative variety, innovative technical application and good development situation of social capital involved in health information construction were dealt with.

Objective:To investigate the supply status of dementia care services in pension agency in Guang zhou,thus to put forward suggestions for improving the service quality of the long-term care for dementia.Methods:Using questionnaire research and individual interview,an interview survey was conducted among managers,dementia and nursing assistant in ten pension agencies in Guangzhou.The data was analyzed by SPSS16.0 statistical method.Results:The dementia had been increasingly paid attention by the pension agencies,but there were still considerable defects in the aspect of the zone set up and service supply;the professional quality of nursing personnel in pension agencies had steadily increased,but shorthanded situation was more obvious.Conclusions:It suggests that we should provide specialized nursing level and the classification standard of care requirements for dementia elders;strengthen the training of mental health worker to enhance the level of medical care and supply ability of nursing assistant;allocate the mental health resources rationally;explore the “combination of medical treatment and endowment” service model which meets the need of dementia elders.

There were some limitations existed in current teaching mode of diagnostics,including simple evaluation methods,mechanical internship for body sign,tedious internship for laboratory diagnosis and unsustainable interest-stimulating.Interest teaching was proposed in the teaching reform and some concert measures were implemented including interesting inquiry,interesting skill examination,interesting teaching of laboratory diagnostics,simulated case discussion,interesting training of centesis as well as interesting clinical involvement and interesting medical community activities.The interesting teaching contributed to the improvement of students'comprehensive analysis ability,practical ability,adaptability,humanistic quality,English communication ability and doctor-patient communication,which is of grate importance.

To establish the vascular endothelial cell (VEC) injury model of blood stasis syndrome (BSS) based on integration of disease identification and syndrome differentiation is one of the aspects of the research on BSS model. This paper discussed the necessity and feasibility of the establishment of that model, and suggested that the model is of important academic value, far-reaching scientific research value and active clinic value.

Objective To investigate the effect of sterol regulating element binding protein (SREBP1c) and its ac-tive form (SREBP1cm) on human protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK).Methods Re-porter victors of PERK promoter and its truncations were constructed with pGL 3-basic and co-transfected with internal reference pRL-SV40 into cell and luciferase activity was detected .pcDNA3.1 ( -)-SREBP1c or pcDNA3.1 ( -)-SREBP1cm was co-transfected with PERK promoter transcriptional activity core regions and the detection of dual -lu-ciferase reporter gene was used to analyze the regulation of SREBP 1c/1cm on PERK promoter transcriptional activity . The expression level of PERK mRNA and protein were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot .Results PERK pro-moter and truncations were successfully constructed into pGL 3-basic, and PERK promoter core area of transcription-al activity had determined;Dual-luciferase report gene showed that SREBP 1c inhibited PERK promoter transcrip-tional activity and SREBP1cm promoted PERK promoter transcriptional activity .RT-PCR and Western blot showed that SREBP1c decreased PERK mRNA and protein expression , but SREBP1cm increased PERK mRNA and protein expression, which was consistent with the detection of dual-luciferase report gene .Conclusions SREBP1c and SREBP1cm have a opposite regulation effect on PERK promoter transcriptional activity and its expression .

OBJECTIVE:To compare the efficacy,safety,vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)and matrix metallopro-teinase-2 (MMP-2) of docetaxel combined with carboplatin and paclitaxel combined with cisplatin (DDP) in the treatment of ad-vanced ovarian cancer. METHODS:120 patients with advanced ovarian cancer were randomly divided into docetaxel combined with carboplatin group(60 cases)and paclitaxel combined with DDP group(60 cases). Docetaxel combined with carboplatin group received 70 mg/m2 Docetaxel injection,intravenous infusion of 1 h,d1;50 mg/m2 carboplatin injection,intravenous infusion of 1 h,d2. Paclitaxel combined with DDP group received 135 mg/m2 Paclitaxel injection,intravenous infusion of 24 h,d1;30 mg/m2 DDP for injection,intravenous infusion,d3;60 mg/m2 Paclitaxel injection (a maximum of 2.0 m2) by intraperitoneal infusion,d8. 3-week was regarded as 1 treatment course,and it lasted 6 courses. Clinical efficacy,VEGF,MMP-2,progression-free survival, overall survival before and after treatment,mortality rate within 2 years of treatment and the incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were compared. RESULTS:There were no significant differences in the objective response rate,disease control rate,mortal-ity rate,incidence of adverse reactions between 2 groups(P>0.05). The progression-free survival in docetaxel combined with car-boplatin group was significantly longer than paclitaxel combined with DDP group,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Before treatment,there were no significant differences in VEGF and MMP-2 level between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treat-ment,VEGF and MMP-2 level in 2 groups were significantly lower than before,and VEGF at different time points and MMP-2 level after 4 weeks,8 weeks and 12 weeks of treatment in docetaxel combined with carboplatin group were lower than paclitaxel combined with DDP group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Docetaxel combined with car-boplatin and paclitaxel combined with DDP shows similar efficacy and safety in the treatment of advanced ovarian cancer,but docetaxel carboplatin combined with is superior to paclitaxel combined with DDP in reducing VEGF and MMP-2 and improving pro-gression-free survival.
