Objective To investigate the effect of 5-aza-2'deoxycytidine (5-Aza-CdR) on proliferation and expression of RASSF1 A gene in human ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3 and 3AO.Methods SKOV3 and 3AO cells were treated with different concentrations (0.5,5,50 μmol/L) of DNA methyltransferase inhibitor 5-Aza-CdR.RT-PCR and Western Blot were adopted to detect expression of mRNA and protein of RASSF1A gene before and after treatment with 5-Aza-CdR respectively.Results Compared with control group,when the 5-Aza-CdR concentration was 0.5,5,50 μmol/L after drug treatment,human ovarian cancer cells could significantly inhibit tumor cell growth; SKOV3 and 3AO cells in control group were observed weaker expression of RASSF1A mRNA.After treated with 5-Aza-CdR,the expressions of RASSF1A mRNA were observed increased with the increase of the drug concentration.After treated with different concentration of 5-Aza-CdR,the expressions of RASSF1A mRNA treated with 0.5 μmol/L 5-Aza-cdR was lower than those treated with 5 and 50 μmol/L 5-Aza-cdR (t =-8.866,P =0.01 ; t =-12.256,P =0.000).However,expressions of RASSF1A mRNA treated with 5 and 50 μmol/L 5-Aza-cdR respectively showed no statistical significance (t =0.431,P =0.689).Expressions of RASSF1A protein treated with 0.5 μmol/L 5-Aza-cdR and 5 μmol/L 5-Aza-cdR didn't show statistically significant (t =-1.586,P =0.188).Conclusion Expressions of RASSF1A mRNA and protein in SKOV3 and 3AO cells were evidently enhanced.As one kind of methyltransferases inhibitors,5-Aza-CdR can inhibit ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3,3AO growth through the RASSF1A promoter methylation,and thus promote their apoptosis.

Objective To compare the different methods for treating aerobic vaginitis and mixed clinical effects of infection.Methods A randomized controlled method was used,298 cases of aerobic vaginitis and mixed infections were randomly divided into control group(149 cases):the use of combination anti -infective therapy,the treatment group(149 cases):the use of combination anti -infective at the same treatment plus lactobacillus vaginal medication.And the therapeutic effect was evaluated.Results The difference of the clinical efficacy of aerobic vagi-nitis treatment of mixed infections was not statistically significant (total effective rate of 95.3% in the treatment group,92.6% in the control group).With the time of treatment extended,the effective rate increased,the use of com-bination anti -infective therapy at the same time plus lactobacillus vaginal administration group of aerobic bacteria vaginosis and recurrence rate was significantly reduced in patients with mixed infection (recurrence rate was 6.0% in the treatment group and 12.8% was in the control group,χ2 =3.941 3,P <0.05).Conclusion The combination of anti -infective therapy at the same time plus lactobacillus vaginal drug treatment aerobic mixed infections and vagini-tis has slightly higher effective rate than the use of combination anti -infective treatment,the former relapse rate was significantly reduced.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of morusin on the migration and invasion of human glioblastoma U87 cells,and to explore its mechanism of action.Methods The Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8)was used to detect the effect of morusin on proliferation of U87 cells.Wound-healing and Transwell assays were used to detect the effects of morusin on mi-gration and invasion of U87 cells.Western blot was employed to detect the effect of morusin on the expressions of MMP-2 and Vimen-tin in U87 cells.Results The results of CCK-8 assay showed that morusin(1,2,4,and 6μg/mL)could significantly inhibit the pro-liferation of U87 cells compared to the 0 μg/mL morusin(P<0.001).The results of wound-healing assay showed that the migration rates of morusin-treated groups(2,4,and 6 μg/mL)were(20.597±1.225)%,(14.734±1.528)%and(7.811±1.496)%,respec-tively,which were significant lower than that in the 0 μg/mL group(40.566±3.284)%(P<0.001).The results of Transwell assay showed that the invasion number of U87 cells treated with morusin at the concentrations of 2,4,and 6 μg/mL was 85.000±6.557,41.000±6.245,and 13.333±3.215,respectively,which were significant lower than that in the 0 μg/mL group(116.667±14.572)(P<0.001).The results of Western blot showed that the expression of Vimentin in U87 cells increased gradually accompanying with the increase of morusin concentrations,while the expression of MMP-2 decreased gradually accompanying with the increase of morusin concentrations(P<0.001).Conclusion Morusin can effectively inhibit the migration and invasion ability of U87 cells,and its effect is positively correlated with the concentration of morusin within a certain range.

Objective: To investigate routine blood test results and secular changes among Tibetan children and adolescents aged from 3 to 19 in the plateau, and to provide the basis for reference range of routine blood test for this population. Methods: A total of 1 568 Tibetan children and adolescents aged from 3 to 19 living in Shigatse, Tibet were selected by cluster random sampling method. Routine blood test results and its secular trends were compared by age and gender. Results: Significantly differences were found in red blood cell(RBC), hemoglobin(HGB), hematocrit (HCT), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin(MCH), white blood cell(WBC), neutrophil(NEU), neutrophil percentage (NEU%), lymphocyte(LYM), lymphocyte percentage(LYM%)，monocyte percentage(MON%)，eosinophil percentage(EOS%),basophil percentage(BAS%) and platelet(PLT) among the four age groups of 3-5, 6-12, 13-15, and 16-19 years ( F/H =60.22, 179.41, 249.45, 115.03, 74.90, 14.33 , 33.46, 78.90, 49.20, 97.29, 24.45,24.28,42.65,20.10, P <0.05). Among red blood cell indexes, RBC, HGB, HCT,MCH increased with age in boys( F =148.77, 493.04, 623.14, 249.92, P <0.05), but there was no similar trend in girls( F =1.37, 0.15, 2.94, 0.11, P >0.05). HCT showed significant sex differences among the four age groups of 3-5 years, 6-12 years, 13-15 years, and 16-19 years [(41.33±2.31)% vs (41.98±2.40)%; (43.28±2.60)% vs ( 43.75 ±2.36)%; (46.20±3.11)% vs (44.83±2.67)%; (51.10±4.15)% vs (43.61±4.70)%, t =-2.10, -2.88, 3.50, 10.82, P <0.05]. WBC, NEU, NEU%, LYM, LYM%, monocyte(MON), and MON% increased significantly with age in both boys and girls ( P <0.05). From the age of 12 to 13, RBC, HGB and HCT in Tibetan male and female adolescents showed an opposite trend and widened gradually. Conclusion Red blood cell index shows significantly different trends among Tibetan adolescents and children of different ages and genders. Regional nationality, age, gender, and other factors should be considered when developing the reference value range of blood routine index.

Objective To probe into the total number and development status of respiratory physicians in China, and to analyze existing problems, for reference in making strategy and policy decisions in professional development of respiratory physicians in the country. Methods The basic information of China′s healthcare institutions and healthcare manpower in 2015 were provided by the Statistics Center of the National Health Commission. The number of respiratory specialists and their profile, drawn from such basic information, were subject to descriptive statistics. Results In 2015, there were 2.729 million medical practitioners ( including assistant doctors ) nationwide, 30.3 thousand among whom being respiratory physicians, accounting for 1.11% of the total. Among these respiratory physicians, practicing respiratory physicians account for 87.1% , respiratory physicians with a master degree and above account for only 19.7% , respiratory physicians with over 10 years of working experience account for 65.8% , respiratory physicians with senior titles account for only 21.4% , and 89.4% of the respiratory physicians work in general hospitals. Conclusions By the criteria of specializing in respiratory specialty over five years and being attending or above, the number approximates 14. 6 thousand nationwide. If practicing ( assistant) physicians specializing in respiratory specialty are also included, the number may hit 30. 3 thousand. Such a number, compared with other specialties, may be sufficient, yet their competence is far from satisfactory. Therefore it is imperative to build a standardized pulmonary medicine fellowship training system for their competence improvement.

Childhood obesity and obesity-related metabolic complications are induced by a high-fat postnatal diet.The lack of a suitable animal model,however,remains a considerable challenge in obesity studies.In the current study,we provided high-fat diet (HFD) to dams during lactation and to pups after weaning.We also developed a novel model of C57BL/6J mouse pups with HFD-induced postnatal obesity.Results showed that feeding with HFD induces fat deposition and obesity in pups.Furthermore,HFD more potently increased the body weight (BW) of male than female pups.HFD-fed female pups were obese,underwent precocious puberty,and showed increased kisspeptin expression in the hypothalamus.However,parental obesity and precocious puberty exerted no synergistic effects on the HFD-induced postnatal weight gain and puberty onset of the pups.Interestingly,some HFD-fed litters with normal BW also exhibited precocious puberty.This finding suggested that diet composition but not BW triggers puberty onset.Our model suggests good construction validity of obesity and precocious puberty.Furthermore,our model can also be used to explore the mutual interactions between diet-induced postnatal childhood obesity and puberty.

Objective To learn the present setup of respiratory departments as well as development of diagnosis and treatment in China, for reference and policy making of the respiratory specialty development. Methods In May and June 2016,3 202 hospitals were surveyed, to learn their respiratory department development,development of sub-specialty,naming of departments,staffing ratio of the medical staff to bed,basic indicators for medical services,medical techniques and disease types treated. Results 77.8% of the tertiary hospitals and 38.8% of the secondary hospitals have independent respiratory departments. Among such tertiary hospitals,54.4% of them have respiratory intensive care units,21.8% have respiratory & sleep disorder clinics, and 13.1% have smoking cessation clinic. The physician-nurse ratio of respiratory department of such hospitals amounted to 1:1.66, while that of secondary hospitals to 1:1.61. 99.8% of the tertiary hospitals and about 95.0% of the secondary hospitals are competent of invasive positive pressure ventilation,noninvasive mechanical ventilation,and pulmonary function test among others. Conclusions Rooms of improvement are found in the following areas. Poor respiratory specialty and sub-specialty construction at such hospitals; insufficient nursing staff; tertiary hospitals have not formed unique advantages in diagnosis and treatment techniques and types of diseases; hierarchical medical system is to be further established.

High Altitude Military Hygiene is the professional core course of high-altitude medicine, which is significant to the cultivation of military medical talents urgently needed by plateau troops. Under the background of "golden course" construction and army curriculum reform, aiming at the problems such as outdated content of course materials, single teaching mode and insufficient capacity of practical courses, we actively explored the effective path of "golden course" construction, including the renovation of the curriculum-construction concept, the optimization and reorganization of the teaching content, the expansion of case teaching and equipment teaching methods, and the implementation of curriculum ideological and political education and examination reforms. The reform has further improved the learning effect of students and the level of curriculum construction, and also provided beneficial reference for the construction of similar courses in military colleges and universities.

Objective To investigate the changes in blood microbiota in patients with high altitude polycythemia(HAPC)and the correlation with the risk of HAPC.Methods A cross-sectional trial was carried out among 41 HAPC patients(HAPC group)and 41 healthy plateau individuals(control group)who took physical examination in the Health Management Department of No.953 Hospital of PLA Army in 2021.High-throughput sequencing technology was used to detect the V3-V4 variable region of the 16S ribosomal RNA(16S rRNA)gene in the blood smaples,and the composition and difference of the blood microbiota were compared and analyzed between the 2 groups.Results All the participants were male and Han people,and there were no significant differences in baseline data such as age,body mass index and plateau migration time between the 2 groups(P＞0.05).The α-diversity of blood microbiota in the HAPC group,including the Simpson index(0.931±0.005 vs 0.907±0.008,P＜0.05),Goods Coverage index(0.998±0.001 vs 0.997±0.001,P＜0.001)and Pielou index(0.597±0.011 vs 0.567±0.009,P＜0.05)were significantly higher than those in the control group.Meanwhile,obvious difference was observed in the β diversity between the 2 groups(P＜0.01).The relative abundance analysis of bacteria showed that Pelomonas(0.046±0.004 vs 0.033±0.003,P＜0.05),Azospirillum(0.046±0.006 vs 0.021±0.003,P＜0.01),Acidovorax(0.032± 0.003 vs 0.019±0.002,Azospirillum(0.046±0.006 vs 0.021±0.003,P＜0.01)and Acidovorax(0.032± 0.003 vs 0.019±0.002,P＜0.05)were statistically higher in the HAPC group than the control group.LEfSe analysis showed that the characteristic blood microbiota of the HAPC group were α-Proteobacteria,and those of control group were Trichospiridae.Conclusion Significant changes are found in diversity,relative abundance and characteristic bacteria of the blood microbiota between the HAPC patients and healthy people at the high altitude,which might be closely associated with the occurrence and development of HAPC.
