Errors and flaws of clinical nursing practice can be fully exposed to voluntary reporting system of nursing errors, and then dramatically improving patient safety. This paper aims at exploring the theoretical basis, the characteristic of the system and essentiality for establishing voluntary reporting system of nursing errors, introducing the methods practicing both in abroad and in domestic, explaining its precondition and put forward a suggestion that the voluntary reporting system would be established in our own country.

Objective To study the effect of overexpression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) in failing heart on contractile function of mouse diaphragm. Methods Diaphragms excised from transgenic mice with cardiac specific overexpression of TNF-α and from wild-type littermate controls were studied in vitro with direct electrical stimulation. Cytosolic oxidant levels were measured with 2',7'-dichlorofluorescin diacetate (DCFH-DA). Emissions of the oxidized product were detected by fluorescence microscopy. Results The diaphragm contractile force in transgenic animals with heart failure was 47% less than in controls [(13. 2±0. 8) N/cm2 vs. (25.1±0. 6) N/cm2 , P<O. 01]. The weakness was associated with greater intracellular oxidant levels (P<0. 05) and was partially reversed by 30-minute incubation with the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) 10 mmol/L ( P < 0. 01 ).Exogenous TNF-a 500 mmol/L increased oxidant production in diaphragm of wild-type mice and caused weakness that was inhibited by NAC. Conclusions Overexpression of TNF in failing heart causes oxidative stress which leads contractile dysfunction in mouse diaphragm.

Objective To evaluate left atrial(LA) function in essential hypertensive patients by speckle tracking imaging (STI) and real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT-3DE).Methods Thirty seven patients with essential hypertension were divided into normal geometric left ventricle(LV) group (LVN, n = 17) and remodeling geometrc LV group (LVR,n = 20).Twenty-six healthy participants were also include.The strain rate curve was auquired in each LA segment (anterior, posterior, lateral, inferior and septal) by STI. The LV mass, LA maximal, minimal and pre-systolic volume (LAVmax, LAVmin and LAVp), LA passive ejection fraction (LAPEF), LA active ejection fraction (LAAEF) were measured by RT-3DE. Results ①Compared with the control group, the mean peak systolic strain rate(mSR_S) in LVN group was lower(P <0.05), and the mSR_S, mean peak early diastolic strain rate(mSR_E) in LVR group were reduced (P <0.01, P<0.05), and the mean peak late diastolic strain rate (mSR_A) in LVR group was increased (P<0.01).②Compared with the control group,the LAVmax, LAVmin and LAV_P all increased in LVN and LVR group(P <0.05 or P <0, 01), the LAPEF was degraded (P<0.05),and the LAAEF was increased (P<0.05) in the LVR group.③A significant relation between mSR_E and LAPEF(r = 0.788, P <0.01), mSR_A and LAAEF(r = 0.804, P<0.01) could be found in the LVN and LVR group. Conclusions STI and RT-3DE may play important roles in the evaluation of left atrial function. The deformation ability of LA wall may decrease before left ventricular remodeling and it showed a significantly positive correlation with LA ejection function in patients with essential hypertension.

Objective To investigate the regulation effect of promoter methylation of deathassociated protein kinase (DAPK) on mRNA and protein expression of DAPK in tissue of primary gastric cancer (GC). Methods The cancerous and noncancerous samples from 62 patients with GC were determined by RT-PCR for mRNA expression of DAPK. The DAPK promoter methylation was detected by methylation-specific PCR. The protein expression of DAPK in 34 patients with methylation was determined by Western blot. Results mRNA and protein expre.ssions of DAPK in cancerous tissues were reduced significantly compared to noncancerous tissues (0. 2863d±0. 2027 vs 0. 57364±0. 1968,0. 2616±0. 0913 vs 0. 65294±0. 1808, P<0.01). Methylation frequency of DAPK in cancerous tissues was higher than that in noncancerous tissues (54.8% vs 17.7%, P<0.01). Furthermore, DAPK mRNA expression was decreased in methylation group compared to unmethylation group (0.1399±0. 0835 vs 0. 46404±0. 1569, P<0. 01). Moreover, a significant correlation was demonstrated between the TNM stage and DAPK promoter methylation (P = 0. 04). Conclusion Expression of DAPK is down-regulated in cancerous tissues at mRNA and protein levels. Low expression of DAPK is associated with hypermethylation of the promoter of DAPK gene.

Objective To observe the levels of neutrophil CD64 expression in prostatic fluid of patients with chronic prostatitis and different degrees of infection,to evaluate the value of CD64 in diagnosis and treatment of chronic bacterial prostatitis.Methods 100 subjects were divided into two groups according to chronic prostatitis symptom index (CPSI) established by the National Institutes of Health (NIH):CPSI high score group and CPSI low group,bacterial infection group,and 30 healthy controls.CD64 expression of neutrophils in prostatic fluid was detected by flow cytometry and prostate fluid routine microscopy inspection.Results The expression of CD64 in severe group (high score) was (4857.25±278.45) molecules / cell,which was significantly higher than that in the mild group (P<0.05).There was significant difference between the mild group and the nonbacterial infection group or the healthy control group (P<0.01).There was no significant difference between nonbacterial infection group and healthy control group.The expression of CD64 was positively correlated with some white blood cells in the bacterial infection group,but not the whole.ROC curve was drawn according to the data of the subjects.When CD64 was 2135.2 molecules/cell,the sensitivity was 92.9% and the specificity was 91.7%.Conclusion Quantitative detection of CD64 in prostatic fluid can be used as a sensitive index for diagnosis of chronic bacterial prostatitis and has clinical value.

BACKGROUND:Ultrasound therapy can relieve pain and improve the movement function in patients with knee osteoarthritis, but there lacks of consistency in the literatures of ultrasound therapy.
OBJECTIVE:To further identify the effectiveness of ultrasound therapy in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis.
METHODS:Twenty-four rabbits were randomly divided into three groups:normal group, model group and ultrasound group. The rabbit in the normal group received no intervention;rabbits in the model group received anterior cruciate ligament transaction to establish the knee osteoarthritis model without any treatment;the rabbit in the ultrasound group received ultrasound therapy after modeling for 10 minutes once time, once per day, 0.3 W/cm2 , 1 MHz and treated for 10 times. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was conducted for histological observation of rabbit articular cartilage;western blot and reverse transcription PCR assessment were used to assess the expressions of caspases-3 and caspases-8 in rabbit articular cartilage, while Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling was used to assess the ratio of chondrocytes apoptosis of rabbit knee articular cartilage.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The normal rabbit cartilage tissues and chondrocytes were neatly arranged in column;the middle cartilage layer of the model was thin;the chondrocytes were arranged disorderly and became less. After ultrasound therapy, the chondrocytes were rearranged neatly, and the number was increased. Compared with the normal group, the Mankin scores in the model group and ultrasound group were higher;the apoptotic rate of chondrocytes was higher in the model group and ultrasound group than in the normal group, and was also higher in the model group than in the ultrasound group. Compared with the normal group, the expressions of caspases-3 and caspases-8 were higher in the model group and the ultrasound group, while decreased after ultrasound therapy. The results indicate that ultrasound can improve the structure of cartilage tissues, decrease the expressions of caspases-3 and caspases-8 and reduce the apoptosis rate of chondrocytes. It is effective for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis with ultrasound therapy.
