Objective:To research and design a closed-loop management system of medical equipment based on virtualized cloud computing so as to enhance the level of maintenance management for medical equipment and reduce cost of maintenance.Methods: Under the operation environment of Cente OS6.4, the closed-loop management system of medical equipment was designed and developed through used design tool of Rational Rose 2007, programming software of JAVA and My SQL data management system.Results: After the management system were used one year, medical workers could real-timely grasp the situation of medical equipment and the communication time about application of equipment has been reduced. The management department of medical equipment could guide clinical department to reasonably allocate and use the medical equipment through implemented closed-loop and dynamic management.Conclusion: The closed-loop management system of medical equipment based on virtualized cloud computing has series of advantages including friendly interface, simple operation, shortened communication time, reduced cost of maintenance, and it can achieve closed-loop management of whole life cycle for medical equipment.

Objective To investigate the effect of parathyroid hormone (PTH) on the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) in human renal proximal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2 cells),and determine the role of β-catenin signaling pathway.Method The expression of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA),E-cadherin and β-catenin in HK-2 cells was measured by real-time PCR,Western blotting and immunofluorescence technique.The signaling pathway by which PTH activated EMT in HK -2 cells was identified by using synthetic β-catenin siRNA.Results Parathyroid hormone (10-10mol/ L) increased α-SMA expression and decreased E-cadherin expression in HK-2 cells (P＜ 0.01,respectively).Untreated cells showed the expression of E-cadherin,whereas α-SMA staining was noticeably increased in cells treated with PTH.β-catenin activity was significantly increased after exposed to PTH.Theα-SMA expression was decreased strongly and E-cadherin expression was increased after β-catenin siRNA transfection (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion PTH significantly induces epithelial to mesenchymal transition in HK-2 cells throughβ-catenin signaling pathway.

The eco-environment in eastern part of Qinghai-Tibet plateau is a rather complicated complex. The plants species there are quite diverse. The plant resource from Polygonaceae family used in traditional Tibetan medicine is very rich according to preliminary investigation. There were 6 genera and 15 species. The flora and the medicine value of them were analyzed. And some suggestions about traditional Tibetan medicine plant resource exploitation and utilization were presented.

Objective To investigate the effects of Tim-3 on the renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI),and explore the role of monocyte-macrophage cell system.Methods Totally 72 C57BL/ 6 mice were randomly divided into four groups (n =18 each).(1) IR + Tim-3 rnAb group (experimental group):Each mouse was intraperitoneally injected with 200μg of anti-Tim-3 mAb and the IR model of mouse kidney was established after 1 day;(2) IR + IgG monoclonal antibody group (negative control group):each mouse was intraperitoneally injected with anti-IgG mAb (200 μg) and the IR model of mouse kidney was established after 1 day;(3) IR group:mouse kidney IR model was established only;(4) Control group:mouse kidney IR model was not established.At 6,24 and 48 h after IR respectively,venous blood of 6 mice in each group was taken from the infrarenal vein.Scr and CystinC were detected and PAS staining was used to observe the pathological change of renal tissues.Cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL staining.Pax,bcl-2 and caspase-3 expression in renal tissue was detected by Western blotting.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the distribution of Tim-3 and activated macrophage cells.Flow cytometry and ELISA were used to evaluate the level of Tim-3 and inflammatory cytokines secretion respectively.Results Compared with control group,the Tim-3 expression was dramatically increased in IR group and I/R + Tim-3 mAb group.The serum Scr and CystinC levels were increased in IR group,and Tim-3 blocking decreased the levels of serum Scr and CystinC (P＜0.05).PAS and TUNEL staining showed that renal injury score and apoptotic index were higher in IR group than those in control group.Tim-3mAb significantly decreased those markers,and ameliorated the renal tubulointerstitial injury induced by IRk The expression levels of Caspase-3 and Bax/bcl-2 was increased in IR group,but deceased by Tim-3mAb.IR induced F4/80 + distribution and inflammatory cytokines secretion in renal tubular interstitial tissues,while Tim-3mAb down-regulated F4/80 + activation and the levels of inflammatory cytokines.Conclusion The findings demonstrated Tim-3 may promoted renal IRI through regulating mononuclear phagocyte system function.

Objective:To analyze characteristics and trends of histopathological diagnosis of adult renal biopsy in Beijing from 2008 to 2020.Methods:A total of 4 652 cases of adult renal biopsy were collected from three hospitals in Beijing between 2008 and 2020. The patients were divided into three age groups: 18-40 years, 40-65 years and≥ 65 years; and also divided into three period: 2008-2011, 2012-2015, and 2016-2020. The pathological characteristics and changes of renal biopsy were analyzed in three age groups at different periods.Results:Among 4 652 cases primary glomerular disease accounted for 81.8%, the membranous nephropathy (MN, 32.4%, 1 509/4 652), IgA nephropathy (IgAN, 29.2%, 1 356/4 652) and minor glomerular abnormalities (MGA, 11.3%, 526/4 652) were the top three pathological types. The overall proportion of MN and diabetic nephropathy (DN) increased from 20.3% and 2.3% in 2008-2011 to 37.3% and 10.1% in 2016-2020) (χ2=99.9 and 96.1, both P<0.01), respectively. For age group 18-40 years, the MN and DN increased from 11.2% and 1.6% in 2008-2011 to 24.7% and 5.5% in 2016-2020 (χ2=32.7 and 20.7, both P<0.01), respectively. For age group 40-65 years the MN and DN increased from 26.6% and 3.2% in 2008-2011 to 41.5% and 13.1% in 2016-2020 (χ2=39.1 and 57.3, both P<0.01), respectively. For age group≥65 years the MN was the most common pathological type in the three periods, fluctuating between 41.3% and 55.0% (χ2=5.2, P=0.08); and DN increased from 0(0/63) in 2008-2011 to 7.5%(22/292) in 2016-2020 (χ2=8.1, P=0.02). Conclusion:The renal biopsy data show that membranous nephropathy and diabetic nephropathy are the most common primary and secondary adult glomerular diseases in Beijing recently.
