Objective To investigate the effect of Suanzaoren Decoction on hippocampus, cortex BDNF and TrKB gene expression in depression model rats. Methods Depression rat models were established by social-isolated raise and chronic stress stimulation. Suanzaoren decoction was administrated to the models. RT-PCR was adopted to detect the expression of mRNA BDNF and TrKB genes. Results The mRNA expression of BDNF and TrKB in cortex of Suanzaoren decoction high dose group、medium dose group and clomipramine group(0.213±0.094, 0.639±0.023, 1.032±0.015, 1.089±0.014, 1.580±0.012, 1.860±0.019)were all higher than the model group(0.032±0.008, 0.001±0.000), showing a significant difference among four groups (P<0.01), and the mRNA expression of BDNF and TrKB in hippocampus of Suanzaoren decoction high dose group, medium dose group and clomipramine group(0.213±0.094, 0.639±0.023, 1.032±0.015, 1.089±0.014, 1.580± 0.012, 1.860±0.019)were higher than the model group (0.021±0.015, 0.125±0.013), there was a significant difference between four groups(P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the mRNA expression of low-dose group of Suanzaoren decoction in both cortex and hippocampus of BDNF and TrKB was not significantly different to the model group(P>0.05). Conclusion Suanzaoren decoction can increase the expression of BDNF and TrKB gene, promote neuronal proliferation, and resist depression.

Objective:To investigate the use of psychological testing in hospital and its potential existent ethical issues.Methods:Eleven psychometricians from 6 specialized and 5 general hospitals accepted a semi-structural interview.With (10.8 ± 8.8) years of experiences on average in this field,they tested 2 to 30 patients each day.Content analysis was used to investigate the psychometricians' qualification,usage of tests,informed consent,scoring,explanation and preservation.Results:Normally,the number of psychometricians in one hospital varied from 1 to 4.Out of 11 interviewees,2 were unqualified.Three of the interviewees pointed out there were non-standard circumstances when some doctors choosing the tests.Six of them thought that the frequently used tests' norms were obsolete.Eight interviewees considered that comparatively low psychometric fee influenced their devotion of explaining the results.Conclusion:In hospital,it's necessary to strength the ethical awareness of decision-makers and executors in psychological testing.

Abstract: Objective　To analyze the genotype of carbapenemase resistance genes and their genetic homology in multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, and to provide a theoretical basis for guiding the rational use of antibiotics and controlling the prevalence of nosocomial infections. Methods A total of 83 multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) and environmental specimens in the Sixth People's Hospital of Nantong from July 2020 to December 2021 were collected. The bacteria were identified and subjected to drug sensitivity tests using the BioMérieux DL96-Ⅱ automatic bacterial identification susceptibility system. The carbapenemase-related drug resistance gene types were detected using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, and clones were analyzed by pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Results The types of 83 ICU Acinetobacter baumannii specimens include sputum (43 strains), broncholavage fluid (20 strains), and surfaces of objects such as ventilators (20 strains). The resistance rates of all strains to imipenem, tetracycline, gentamicin, amikacin and ciprofloxacin were 100%, 32.5%, 38.6%, 41.0% and 77.1% respecitively, while the resistance rates to others such as ticarcillin and clavulanate were greater than 95%. All strains carried were detected to carry OXA-23 and OXA-51 genes, while OXA-24, OXA-58, IMP-1, VIM, IMP-4, SIM and NDM-1 resistance genes were all negative. PFGE homology analysis confirmed that 83 strains of Acinetobacter baumannii, with counts of 12, 18, 12, 13, 10, 6, 7, 5 respectively, mainly A, B, C, D, E clones, the rest were sporadic clones. Conclusions The carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from our ICU are widely drug-resistant to commonly used antimicrobial drugs, with B clone strain being the major prevalent strain. Carrying OXA-23 and OXA-51 genes may be an important reason for the resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii to carbapenem antibiotics in our ICU. Rational use of antimicrobial drugs, enhanced monitoring of bacterial resistance, and effective control of the generation and further spread of drug-resistant strains should be emphasized.

Objective To summarize the results of valve re-operative cases after cardiac valve replacement, to find the better re-operative time, and to estimate the re-operative methods and influencing factors of the operation. Methods Thirteen valve re-operative cases after cardiac valve replacement from October 2008 to February 2010 were retrospectively studied. According to NYHA classification, 9 cases belonged to class Ⅳ, and only 4 cases belonged to class Ⅲ preoperatively. Mitral valve replacement (MVR)was performed in 7 cases, aortic valve replacement (AVR) in 3 cases, MVR + AVR in 3 cases. Results The early-stage postoperative mortality was 7.7%( 1/13),and the reason was low cardiac output syndrome. Two cases who underwent re-operation and re-intubation respectively after operation for hemorrhage were improved after treatment. Twelve cases were discharged in 3-6 weeks after heart valve surgery and all were followed up for 6-15 months. The cardiac function of all the discharged patients recovered well and no death occurred during follow-up. Conclusion The key factors to reduce the death of re-operation are improving preoperative heart function,setting up extracorporeal circulation as soon as possible,consummating myocardial preservation,perfecting operating skills,correcting low cardiac output syndrome in time and preventing complications.

ObjectiveTo investigate the myocardial protection on cardiac valve replacement surgery with creatine phosphate of myocardial GIK (GIK) in order to reduce the surgical risk and improving the efficacy.Methods126 cases were unergone surgical treatment of heart valve disease,whose cardiac function on admission wereⅢor Ⅳ. 126 patients were randomly divided into two groups. Cardiopulmonary bypass time, aortic cross clamp time, postoperative myocardial injury markers ( CK-MB, cTNI) changes, arrhythmias, heart function recovery, length of stay and mortality rate and other indicators were compared between the two groups. ResultsThe age, gender, body mass,heart disease and surgery combined data were not statistically significant between the two groups( all P ＞0. 05). The cardiopulmonary bypass time, aortic cross clamp time and mortality had no significant differences between the two groups( all P ＞ 0.05 ). The CK-MB( 21.36± 9.21 ) U/L and cTNI(0.83 ± 0. 35 ) ng/ml of creatine phosphate group were significantly lower than those of the control group. The incidence of arrhythmia in phosphocreatine group (37. 1％ ) was significantly lower than ordinary group (57.8 ％ ) ( X2 ＝ 5. 418, P ＜ 0. 05 ). ConclusionThe application of creatine phosphate GIK before valve replacement surgery could effectively reduce reperfusion injury after myocardial ischemia,myocardial protection,and significantly reduce the incidence of arrhythmia and improve heart function in patients.

ObjectiveTo explore the surgical treatment of congenital heart disease combined with severe pulmonary hypertension.MethodsThirty-two patients of congenital heart disease combined with severe pulmonary hypertension were included in the study.The saturation of arterial oxygen ranged from 0.84 to 0.94 and echocardiography showed left to right slow velocity shunt in 20 eases,double direction shunt in 10 cases and no shunt in 2 cases.The pulmonary arterial pressure was 65-120 (82 ± 14) mm Hg ( 1 mm Hg =0.133 kPa).All patients received surgical repairs under cardiopulmonary bypass and were treated preoperatively with oxygen inhalation therapy,oral intake of beraprost sodium or silaenafil respectively according to the degree of pulmonary hypertension.During cardiopulmonary bypass,pulmonary artery perfusion was performed with protective solution containing ulinastatin for lung protection.Vasoactive drugs were routinely administrated postoperatively.Results Thirty-two cases underwent the surgical treatment successfully with their postoperative pulmonary arterial pressure decreased 20 -40 mm Hg and 2 cases died of severe low cardiac output syndrome and fatal arrhythmia.The mortality was 6.25％(2/32).ConclusionComprehensive perioperative management followed by radical operation can achieve a good clinical result on congenital heart disease combined with pulmonary hypertension.

Objective To analyze the spectrum of anus disease during the medical selection of flying cadets and com-pare the medical standard between US Air Force and Chinese Air Force in order to improve the system of medical selection.

Abstract Ion mobility spectrometry ( IMS) based explosives detectors is wieldy deployed at the check points of airport, etc, so the development of new ionization method to replace the radioactive 63 Ni ion source in IMS is highly demanded. In this study, a novel negative corona discharge was developed for ion mobility spectrometer for rapid detection of trace explosives, which was running in the unidirectional mode to efficiently remove nitrogen oxides and ozone produced from the discharge process. The diameter of target electrode was 3 mm, the distance between the needle and the target electrode was 2 mm, the discharge voltage was 2400 V and the flow rate of drift gas was 1200 mL/min. Under the optimized conditions, the dominant reactant ions was O-2(H2O)n and could be used to directly detect the common explosives, such as trinitrotoluene (TNT), ammonium nitrate (AN), nitroglycerin (NG), pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) and hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX). The limit of detection of TNT was 200 pg/μL. These results indicated that negative corona discharge ionization source, with the advantanges of the high sensibility, simple structure and no radioactivity, could be used as a potential and promising ionization source for ion mobility spectrometry to detect explosives.
