Objective To know the influence of psychological intervention on delivery results of par-turient women, and then reference to certain effective psychological nursing cares for clinical field. Methods Divided 226 partreient women of spontaneous labor into the experimental group and the control group randomly, there were 113 eases in each group. Traditional routine nursing cares was used in the control group, psychological intervention was used in the experimental group in addition. Compared the condi-tion of birth process and the incidence rate of labor-related complications between the two groups. Re-sults There were significant differences between the two groups about all the indexes which had indicated the delivery. Conclusions Correct psychoanalysis and proper nursing intervention and effective release the pains for parturient women, and then decrease the incidence rate of medical negligence.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of component I from agkistrodon acutus venomon (AAVC-I) the migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), and to elucidate the possible anti-angiogenic mechanism of AAVC-I.

METHODSThe effect of AAVC-I on the migration of HUVECs which was cultivated in vitro and treated with AAVC-1 at four concentrations: 0, 20, 40, 80 microg/ml, was observed by methods of scratch wound-healing and Transwell assay. The expression level of mRNA and protein of P-selectin and intercellular cell adhension molecule-I (ICAM-1) were examined by RT-PCR and Western blot assay.

RESULTSCompared with the blank group, the migration ability of HUVECs in each AAVE-I treated group was reduced in a dose-dependent manner, and the expression level of the mRNA and protein of P-selectin and ICAM-1 were decreased.

CONCLUSIONAAVC-I inhibits the migration of endothelial cell, which is acted by down-regulation of the expression content of mRNA and protein of P-selectin and ICAM-1.

Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERV) can infect human cell in vitro, which raised widely concerns re-garding the transmission of PERV to xenograft recipients. It's essential to establish a method for detection of PERV.3 pairs of primers were synthesized according to the sequence of gag, pol and env gene of PERV. Polymerase chainreaction (PCR) and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) assays were performed for detection of PERV provirusDNA and PERV specific mRNA. The results showed that provirus DNA and mRNA of PERV existed and expressedin all 4 tested cell lines. The sizes of amplified fragments are identical with the predicted. These methods may be suit-able for monitoring PERV in other cells or tissue.

Objective To determine the effects of individual antibiotic and immunosuppressive regime on postoperative infection in liver transplant recipients. Method There were 31 cases of liver transplantation from March 2001 to May 2005. The recipients received individual antibiotic and immunosuppressive regime based on the drug susceptibility testing and monitoring of blood drug concentration. The incidence and pattern of infection and the mortality in these recipients were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were 15 episodes of infection during recipients' staying in hospital. The common etiologies were Enterobacter cloacae, pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Staph. epidermidis. According to the drug sensitive test, targocid/tienam and tazocin were mostly used in antibiotic regime for treatment of postoperative infection. With monitoring of blood concentration, appropriate application of immunosuppressive agents decreased the incidence of infection from 86.7% before 2003 to 48.4% after 2003 (P0.05). Conclusion Individual application of antibiotic and immunosuppressive regime leads to the suppression of infections and other complications in liver transplant recipients.

Objective To investigate the effect of hydrogen sulfide(H2S)on gene expression of adenosine triphosphate(ATP)-sensitive K+ channel(KATP)of aortic smooth muscle cells(ASMC)in rat.Methods Male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were used in the study.The original generation cells were obtained by modified tissue piece inoculation.The passaged cells were used.The ASMC were divided into 2 groups:H2S group of different dosages and control group.The contents of sodium hydrosulfide in the culture media of H2S group were 10-5,10-4 and 10-3 mol/L respectively,and the same volume of normal saline was added to control group.Each group was treated for 24 hours.Morphology of the cells was observed by inverted microscope and identified by immunohistochemical method employing ?-smooth muscle-actin.The expressions of SUR2B and Kir6.1 were identified by immunohistochemical SP technology.The SUR2B mRNA and Kir6.1 mRNA levels were assayed by real time fluorescence relative quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Results The passaged cells developed typical growth pattern peak and valley and the 97th percent of the cells expressed the smooth muscle specific differentiation marker ?-smooth muscle-actin.SUR2B and Kir6.1 could be detected in ASMC by immunohistochemical technology.They were both located at cytoplasmic and cytomembrane but not in at nucleus.Compared with control group,SUR2B mRNA and Kir6.1 mRNA levels in H2S groups were higher than those in control group in a dosage-dependent mode.Conclusions H2S can increased the expression KATP channel SUR2B mRNA and Kir6.1 mRNA levels of ASMC.J Appl Clin Pediatr,2009,24(1):21-23

Objective To examine the expression of typeⅠcollagen in pulmonary arteries of rats with monocrotaline(MCT)-induced pulmonary hypertension(PH) and explore the mechanism of pulmonary vascular structural remodeling.Methods Twelve male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 2 groups: the MCT group(n=6) and the control group(n=6),which received a single intraperitoneal injection of MCT solution(60 mg?kg-1,the first day) or 9 g?L-1saline,respectively.After 3 weeks,mean of pulmonary artery pressure(mPAP),the value of right ventricle/(left ventricle plus septum)[RV/(LV+S)] and body weight were measured.Lung sections(HE stained) were observed under lightmicroscope for changes of the pulmonary arteries.The protein expression of typeⅠcollagen in pulmonary arteries was detected by immunohistochemical technique.Results Three weeks after MCT injection,compared with control group,mPAP and RV/(LV+S) increased significantly in MCT group[mPAP:(10.60?2.06) mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) vs(32.40?3.24) mmHg,P

Objective To investigate the effect of carbon monoxide(CO) on hydrogen sulfide(H_2S)/cystathionine-?-lyase system(CSE) in vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMC) of spontaneous hypertensive rats(SHR).Methods The SHR VSMC were divided into 2 groups:experimental group(hemin was added to the culture media at a concentration of 10 ?mol/L)and control group (dimethyl sulfoxide was added to the culture media at an equal volume).The content of H_2S in the cultrue media was measured by sulfide electrode method,and the CSEmRNA level was assayed by competitive reversed transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results Compared with control group,the content of H_2S in the culture media of hemin-treated SMCs was significantly lower[(16.03? 2.14) ?mol/L vs (13.31?1.74)?mol/L],and the CSEmRNA level in hemin-treated SMCs was decreased markedly(0.17?0.04 vs 0.13?0.03).Conclusion CO can down-regulate the H_2S/CSE system in SMC of SHR.
