Complaints of medical consumers are caused by a good many factors,which aim at distincting medical pur?pose further,asking for economic compensation and justice,and punishing complained individual or complained hospital.It’s a realistic proposition on howto treat,reduce and avoid complaints,and maintain a correct attitude by units which ac?cept the complaints.

Objective To investigate the effects of pioglitazone on angiotensin Ⅱ(AngⅡ) -induced proliferation and collagen typeⅠ expression of adventitial fibroblasts (AF). Methods The AFs were isolated from rat thoracic aorta. MTT colorimetry and flow cytometry were used to study the effects of pioglitazone on proliferation and cell cycles of AF. The expression of collagen typeⅠ regulated by pioglitazone was examined by the method of Western blot. Results Pioglitazone inhibited the proliferation of AF in a dose-dependent manner, and the most marked effect could be observed at the concentration of 10?10-6 mol/L for pioglitazone (P

Objective To evaluate the effects of tumor-associated macrophages on the proliferation,invasion and migration of human cutaneous malignant melanoma cells.Methods Cultured U937 human monocytic cells at logarithmic phase were classified into three groups to be pretreated with phorbol ester for 48 hours followed by 48-hour activation by phorbol ester (M polarization),lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at 25 mg/L (M1 polarization),and interleukin (IL)-4 at 15 μg/L (M2 polarization) respectively.Then,enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to determine the levels of IL-12p70 and IL-10 in the supernatant of these activated cells.A375 human malignant melanoma cells were divided into four groups to be cultured alone or with M-,M1-and M2-polarized macrophages respectively.After additional culture for different durations (24,48 and 72 hours),methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was conducted to estimate the proliferative activity,and Transwell assay to evaluate the invasion and migration activity,of the A375 cells.Results The proliferation of A375 cells was accelerated by coculture with M-and M2-polarized macrophages,but inhibited by that with M1-polarized macrophages,with significant differences among the four groups in the proliferative activity at 48 and 72 hours (all P < 0.05),but not at 24 hours (P > 0.05).Invasion assay showed that the number of A375 cells that migrated through Transwell chambers was significantly larger in M2 and M groups (147.00 ± 7.92 and 113.22 ± 8.15 respectively),but smaller in the M1 group (56.44 ± 7.55),than in the control group (84.11 ± 6.07,all P < 0.05).Similarly,migration assay revealed a significant increase in the number of A375 cells that migrated through Transwell chambers in the M2 and M(p) groups (198.33 ± 8.22 and 156.00 ± 8.83 respectively),but a significant decrease in the M1 group (97.11 ± 6.75) as compared with the control group (123.89 ± 7.01,all P< 0.05).Conclusions The proliferation,invasion and migration of A375 cells can be accelerated by IL-4-activated M2-polarized macrophages,but decelerated by LPS-activated M1-polarized macrophages.Phorbol ester tends to induce monocytic cells to differentiate into M2-polarized macrophages.

Objective:To study the influence of vitamin C ( VC) on dendritic cells ( DC) ,and detect DC maturation,to provide a feasible method and thought for quickly preparating DC vaccines.Methods:Collected the peripheral blood (about 50 ml) from healthy volunteers,and isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells with lymphocyte separation medium and obtain DC.With stimulating with different concentrations of VC for (24 h),then washed with PBS,and set up blank control group (V0).The expression of DC surface co-stimulating molecules CD80/86 and HLA-DR, CD40 was detected by flow cytometry.By setting the concentration gradient and time gradient, exciting optimal concentration and stimulating time of VC on DC, and analyzed the reasons of VC promoting DC maturation.Results:VC could effectively stimulate DC,CD80/86 expression had significantly increased contrast to the blank control group (V0).And the experiments show that VC’s best stimulating concentration was 1 mmol/L,and on the third day,the CD80/86 expression rate of VC group was (78.6±4.6) %,and blank control group V0 was (34.1±5.7) %.DC surface HLA-DR expression:VC (56.8± 4.4) %,blank control group V0 (25.4 ±4.7) %,the difference between two groups was statistically significant,P<0.05.CD40 and CD40L expression and results show that VC 2.5 mmol/L group of CD40 expression rate up to (59.3±3.7) %,while V0 group was only (11.1 ±2.4) %,that illustrate VC could significantly regulate CD40 expression on DC surface,but CD40L not reflect.Fluorescence mi-croscope results showed that DC’ s antigen catching ability was also significantly promoted.Conclusion:VC can significantly regulate DC maturity,and may up regulate CD40,thus promoting the express of CD80/86 and HLA-DR.When the concentration is 1 mmol/L,VC expresses the strongest regulation function on DC.

ObjectiveTo study the efficacy and safety of heated humidified high flow nasal cannula ( HHHFNC) and nasal continuous positive airway pressure( NCPAP) ventilation for prevention of extubation failure in extremely low birth weight(ELBW)infants in our NICU.MethodsFrom Jan.2011 to Dec. 2014, 129 ELBW infants admitted to our hospital were randomly assigned into HHHFNC group and NCPAP group. The inclusion criteria were gestational age ( GA ) <34 w, birth weight ( BW )<1000 g, admission within 7 d after birth and transition to noninvasive respiratory support after a period of mechanical ventilation with an endotracheal tube. The primary outcome included:the incidence of extubation failure, nasal injury, air leak, abdominal distention and bronchopulmonary dysplasia ( BPD). Results Statistically significant difference sexisted between the two groups on oxygen the rapyduration, the time required reaching total enteral feedings and the incidences of nasal injury, air leak, abdominal & nbsp;distention and necrotizing enterocolitis ( P<0. 05). The incidence of extubation failure within 7 days was 25. 8℅ in HHHFNC group and 47. 6℅ in NCPAP group ( P <0. 05 ) . No differences between the 2 groups on total ventilation duration, non-invasive ventilation duration, re-intubation rate at 3d after extubation, BPD, retinopathy of prematurity ( ROP ) , intracerebral hemorrhage ( ICH ) , periventricular leukomalacia(PVL)and patent ductus arteriosus(PDA).Conclusions HHHFNC is an effective and safe method for prevention of extubation failure in ELBW infants.

Objective To discuss the correlation between procrastination and the mentalities of anxiety and depression among medical postgraduates,so as to carry out mental health work effectively.Methods 423 medical postgraduates in Central South University were assessed randomly, using General Procrastination Scale (GPS),Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS).Results Procrastination score and incidence in medical postgraduates was 54.92±8.40 and 60.99%respectively,the differences of procrastination scores(53.3l±8.21,55.90±8.30,55.75±8.49,P=0.013)and incidences(52.60%,66.09%,65.58%.P =0.028)among three grades were statistically significant.Both total coarse score of anxiety and that of depressionwere higher than that of the whole country(31.24±7.40,29.78±10.07,P=0.000;34.8±8.11,33.46±8.55,P=0.000),the differences were statistically significant.Procrastination had a positive correlation with anxiety and depression significantly(r=0.304,P=0.000;r=0.369,P=0.000),the higher the grade was,the weaker the intensity of correlation was.Hish-delay group,low-delay group and normal-behavior group had different deglees of anxiety(46.63±10.55,44.01±10.12,38.32±7.57,P=0.000)and depression(51.45±10.12,47.81±10.78,40.69±8.23,P=0.000),which was statistically significant.Conclusion Anxiety and depression among medical postgraduates were outstanding and had a close relationship with procrastination behavior,which should be taken seriously and handled by strengthening mental health education.
