To determine the effects of Remifentanil on the expression of adhesive factors during acute lung injury, we used immunohistochemistry and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT PCR) technics to measure the expression levels of ICAM 1, and P Selectin in the lung in a rat model of hemorrhagic shock. We duplicated modified Wigger hemorrhagic shock model in healthy SD rats. The rats were divided into three groups: control group, resuscitation group, resuscitation and drug using group. The positive ratios of ICAM 1 and P Selectin in the lungs at different time points, namely preshock, shock, resuscitation 2 hours, and resuscitation 4 hours were determined. There were 6 rats in each group and each time point. The degree of pulmonary injury in the drug using group was less than that in other two groups. Resuscitation with lactated Ringer's solution led to most serious injury in the resuscitation group. In drug using group, the expression of ICAM 1 and P Selectin was far less than that in the other two groups ( P

Objective To determine the modulating effects of remifentanil on the expression of apoptosis factors during acute lung injury as a result of hemorrhagic shock, we observed the expression of C-Jun, Bax, Bcl-2 in lung with immunohistochemistry in rats with hemorrhagic shock. Methods Hemorrhagic shock model was replicated with modified Wigger's method in healthy SD rats. Seventy-two rats were randomized into three groups: sham resuscitation, resuscitation with lactated Ringer′s solution, and fluid resuscitation with remifentanil. Positive rates of C-Jun, Bax, Bcl-2 were assayed in the lungs at different time points: preshock, shock, 2 hours after resuscitation, and 4 hours after resuscitation. Results ①The model of acute lung injury subsequent to hemorrhagic shock was reproduced in rats. ②The expression of Bcl-2 elevated slowly in three groups, while the expression of Bax elevated rapidly, and there were significant differences between the value of baseline and those of other time points (P

ObjectiveTo study the factors which affect the nurses' implementation of cardiac rehabilitation. MethodsData of 134 nurses who worked or are working in cardiology ward in No.1 and No.2 hospital of China Medical University was analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics.ResultsThe overall barriers is at a moderate level. The types of the barriers in order of mean score were no formal rehabilitation program, lack of knowledge, lack of facility, lack of support, and lack of understanding. Conclusions In order to improve the motivation of nurses to implement cardiac rehabilitation nursing, something must be done to improve nursing practice , nursing administration, and nursing education.

Quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (qNMR) technology has significant advantages in quantification due to its simple sample processing and high reproducibility. Two-dimensional qNMR analysis, which can solve the quantification problem of different components in complex systems, has gradually been applied in medicine, food, metabonomics, chemical engineering, and other fields. This paper reviews the analysis methods, influencing factors, experimental optimization, application fields, and other aspects of qNMR to promote its wide and effective application.

OBJECTIVETo explore the possible pain mechanism of chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS).

METHODSThe models of CP/CPPS were established in male Wistar rats by the autoimmune method. The paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) was detected using Von Frey filament. The expressions of the substance P and c-fos in the prostate and spinal L5-S2 segments were determined by immunohistochemistry followed by analysis of their correlation with CP/CPPS.

RESULTSCompared with the control rats, the CP/CPPS models showed significantly decreased PWT (P < 0.05), remarkable prostatic inflammation, enlarged scope of lesions, and obvious interstitial lymphocytic infiltration (P < 0.05). Both the expressions of substance P and c-fos were markedly elevated in the prostate and spinal dorsal horn (L5-S2) of the rat models (P < 0.05), but the expression of substance P in the prostate exhibited no correlation with that in the spinal cord (r = 0.099, P = 0.338), nor did that of c-fos (r = 0.027, P = 0.454).

CONCLUSIONThe upregulated expressions of substance P and c-fos in the spinal cord L5-S2 sections may be associated with the pain mechanism of CP/CPPS.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the incidence and characteristics of anemia in chronic heart failure population through retrospective analysis of patients hospitalized at the Hunan Provincial People's Hospital.Methods A total of 259 patients who were diagnosed as chronic heart failure (CHF) and hospitalized at the Hunan Provincial People's Hospital from October to November in 2012 was collected,and divided into cardiac function Ⅰ ～ Ⅳ grade,then their clinical characteristics was analyzed.Results (1)Compared with CHF patients without anemia,the creatinine value was significantly higher,the percentage of patients with severe heart failure was significantly higher in the CHF patients with anemia (P＜ 0.05).(2) Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that age (95％ CI:1.123 ～ 3.580,P ＜ 0.05),renal insufficiency (95％ CI:1.320 ～ 4.845,P ＜ 0.05),and cardiac function (95 ％ CI:1.368 ～ 3.385,P ＜ 0.05) in patients with heart failure were important risk factors for anemia.Conclusions Anemia was common in CHF patients.The poorer cardiac function was and the lower hemoglobin was,the higher incidence of anemia was.The patients with anemia had the characteristics of worse renal function and poorer nutritional status compared patients without anemia.Age,renal insufficiency,and cardiac function were important risk factors for anemia.

OBJECTIVETo study the possible mechanisms of chronic nonbacterial prostatitis (CNP) pain.

METHODSCNP models were established in male Wistar rats by the autoimmune method. Then the paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) was detected using the Von Frey filament, prostate pathological examination was conducted, the expressions of substance P (SP) and transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) in the prostate tissue and L5-S2 spinal segments were determined by immunohistochemistry and their correlations were analyzed.

RESULTSCompared with the control group, the CNP model rats showed markedly decreased PWT (P < 0.05) and obvious inflammation in the prostate tissue, with significant differences in the scope of lesion and interstitial lymphocyte infiltration (P < 0.05). The expressions of SP and TRPV1 in the prostate and spinal cord dorsal horn L5-S2 were remarkably upregulated in the models as compared with the control rats (P < 0.05). However, the expression of SP in the prostate was not correlated with that in the spinal cord (r = 0.099, P = 0.338), nor was that of TRPV1 (r = 0.000, P = 0.5).

CONCLUSIONSP and TRPV1 were involved in the formation and persistence of pain in CNP rats through their upregulated expressions in the L5-S2 spinal segments.
