Aim To construct the eukaryotic expression vectors of short hairpin RNA targeting survivin and observe its effect on biologic behavior of A549 cells and sensitivity of A549 cells to paclitaxel.Methods The DNA fragment targeting human survivin was inserted into the plasmid,and the recombinant plasmid was constructed.The recombinant plasmids cells were transfected into A549 cells by FuGENE transfection reagent.The expression levels of survivin gene were detected with RT-PCR and Western blot before and after transfection,respectively.Cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL method.The sensitivity of A549 cells to paclitaxel was detected by MTT after transfection.Results The recombinant plasmid was successfully constructed.RNAi group cells showed lower expression of survivin than control group.The apoptosis rate of A549 cells increased after transfection.The IC50 of paclitaxel inhibiting A549 cells was 11.9 fold before transfection compared with those after transfection.There was significant difference between the two groups(P

In order to investigate the interelationship between copper deficiency and lipidemia, an experiment was done in weanling rats fed normol and copper deficient diet for one month. At the end of experimental period, the growth rate, the contents of copper, zinc, cholesterol and triglyceride in plasma and the activity of monoamine oxidase (MAO) in plasma were measured. The differences between the two diets were compared by student's test and the relation between plasma copper and plasma cholesterol or MAO was ascertained by regression analysis.The results showed that a lower body weight gain and a highly significant hypercholesterolemia were found in copper deficiency rats and the plasma cholesterol concentration correlated reversely with the plasma copper (r = -0.724, p

Objective To investigate the influence of different volumes of ropivacaine with isod-osage on diaphragmatic excursion following ultrasound-guided interscalene brachial plexus block. Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients scheduled for right ulnoradial fracture internal fixation removal were randomized into group A (0.5% ropivacaine 20 ml)and group B (0.75% ropivacaine 13.3 ml) (n=30,each).Diaphragmatic excursion were evaluated by M type ultrasound before,1 5 min and 30 min after drug injection. The degree and duration of sensory and motor block were recorded. Results The anesthetic effect and maintain time had no significant difference between groups;Com-pared with group A,group B had lower incidence of diaphragmatic paralysis (P <0.05).There were 28 (93%)and 22 (73%)cases of patients in group A and group B respectively showed reduction of diaphragmatic excursion more than 50% or even complete paralysis 30 min after drug injection (P <0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided interscalene brachial plexus with 0.5% ropivacaine 20 ml or 0.75% ropivacaine 13.3 ml both can provide excellent block.Compared with 0.75% ropivacaine 13.3 ml,0.5% ropivacaine 20 ml is more likely to lead to diaphragmatic paralysis.

Objective:To implement evidence-based nursing practices for gastrointestinal function recovery in postoperative patients with gynecologic malignancies, develop review indicators based on the best available evidence, analyze their obstructive and facilitating factors, and provide references for applying evidence in clinical practice.Methods:Based on the 6S Pyramid Model, a comprehensive computer-based search was conducted across Chinese and international databases for evidence related to gastrointestinal function recovery in patients with gynecologic malignancies. The search included clinical decisions, guidelines, evidence summaries, systematic reviews, expert consensus, and randomized controlled trials up to July 10, 2023. The knowledge-to-action framework (KTA) was used to systematically retrieve, evaluate, and summarize the best evidence to develop an evidence-based nursing review plan for postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery in gynecologic malignancy patients. A baseline review was conducted, and influencing factors were analyzed to formulate action strategies.Results:A total of 16 articles were included, and 17 review indicators were developed. One indicator had an execution rate of 100%, one indicator had an execution rate of 95%, and the remaining 15 indicators had execution rates between 0 and 60%. Obstructive factors included ingrained previous work patterns, lack of awareness regarding evidence translation, increased clinical workload leading to resistance among medical staff, lack of necessary systems, processes, and equipment for practice change, and poor communication between multidisciplinary teams. Facilitating factors included Qilu Hospital of Shandong University (Qingdao) being an evidence-based nursing evidence application base in Shandong Province, with the Department being a key discipline in the hospital and having the necessary talent for practice change. In addition, the Department had high cooperation among medical staff and strong leadership with a focus on evidence-based clinical translation.Conclusions:There is a significant gap between clinical practice and best evidence in the gastrointestinal function recovery of postoperative patients with gynecologic malignancies. Precisely analyzing obstructive and facilitating factors and developing scientific action strategies are essential for driving effective evidence translation.

Objective To analyze the office blood pressure ( OBP ) and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) among clinical nurses in large hospitals .Methods Totals of 71 clinical nurses from large hospitals of Liaoning provincial were recruited as analysis objects .And 76 female staffs from other institutions took part in the Physical Check-up during the same time were recruited as control group .All the recruited objects received the office blood pressure ( OBP ) and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring ( ABPM ) . Results The prevalence of masked hypertension ( MH) in clinical nurses was higherthan that in control group (14.08%vs 2.63%,χ2 =6.423,P<0.05).The prevalence of white coat hypertension (WCH) in clinical nurses was lower than that in control group (1.41% vs 11.84%,χ2 =4.761,P<0.05).The mean value of OSBP,ODSP of clinical nurses was significantly lower than that of control group [OSBP :(125.35 ±15.14) vs (131.71 ±16.62),t=2.418,P<0.05;ODSP:(76.15 ±9.67) vs (82.94 ±11.25),t=3.907,P<0.05)].

Background: Pseudorabies (PR), caused by the pseudorabies virus (PRV), is an endemic disease in some regions of China. Although there are many reports on epidemiological investigations into pseudorabies, information on PRV gI antibody dynamics in one pig farm is sparse. Objectives: To diagnose PR and analyze the course of PR eradication in one pig farm. Methods: Ten brains and 1,513 serum samples from different groups of pigs in a pig farm were collected to detect PRV gE gene and PRV gI antibody presence using real-time polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. Results: The July 2015 results indicated that almost all brain samples were PRV gE gene positive, but PRV gI antibody results in the serum samples of the same piglets were all negative.In the boar herd, from October 2015 to July 2018 three positive individuals were culled in October 2015, and the negative status of the remaining boars was maintained in the following tests. In the sow herd, the PRV gI antibody positive rate was always more than 70% from October 2015 to October 2017; however, it decreased to 27% in January 2018 but increased to 40% and 52% in April and July 2018, respectively. The PRV gI antibody positive rate in 100-day pigs markedly decreased in October 2016 and was maintained at less than 30% in the following tests. For 150-day pigs, the PRV gI antibody positive rate decreased notably to 10% in April 2017 and maintained a negative status from July 2017. The positive trend of PRV gI antibody with an increase in pig age remarkably decreased in three tests in 2018. Conclusions The results indicate that serological testing is not sensitive in the early stage of a PRV infection and that gilt introduction is a risk factor for a PRV-negative pig farm. The data on PRV gI antibody dynamics can provide reference information for pig farms wanting to eradicate PR.

Cardiac deficiency of qi(vital energy) is one of the main syndromes in terms of TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine). Based on our analysis of blood-tissue fluid circulation, we set up a hemodynamics model describing cardiac deficiency of qi. The model's theoretical results can reflect the manifestations of cardiac deficiency of qi, and are identical to those of clinical experimental discoveries, therefore it has substantiated our theory-cell's abnormal physiological function caused by undernourishment of tissue fluid is the reason of qi-deficiency.
