1.Designing and delivery of nursing interventions
Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2015;(30):2273-2276
Objective To explore the designing and delivery strategies of nursing interventions, in order to improve the design level and delivery effect. Methods We expounded the idea through litera-ture review and the author′s practical experience in research work. Results The adoption and design of nursing intervention were discussed from literature review, theoretical framework, meta- analysis, and expert opinions. Strategies were recommended for effective delivery of nursing intervention, including integrity of in-tervention, compliance of participants, and randomization of grouping. Conclusions The above strategies should be insisted to design and carry out nursing intervention research, in order to make the intervention applicable, standardized and easy to generalize in clinic.

Objective To explore the quality of life and its influencing factors among permanent colostomy patients. Methods Totally 219 permanent colostomy patients were recruited by convenient sampling method from January 2013 to December 2014 and investigated by Stoma Quality of life-Chinese Version, Stoma self-efficacy Scale, Stoma Self-care Scale-general version , and demographic questionnaire. Data were analyzed by SPSS 17.0. Results The score of Stoma-QoL-C among permanent colostomy patients was (54.86±12.17) points, which showed a dynamic V-type change as time went by. The quality of life of patients with colostomy for 1 to 3 years was especially low (50.46±13.77) points, P<0.01. The influencing factors of quality of life among permanent colostomy patients included self-efficacy, body image change, family members′acceptance of stoma except their spouses and self-care ability, while self-efficacy was the most important influencing factor. Conclusions The enterostomal nurses should pay more attention to the quality of life of the patients who have had colostomy for 1 to 3 years, enhance the patients self-efficacy and self-care ability, and help the patients to accept their body image changes and their family members′acceptance of stoma to improve their quality of life.
5. Analysis of transcriptome sequencing and qRT-PCR analysis of related genes of flavonoid biosynthesis from Eucommia ulmoides calli
Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs 2018;49(16):3912-3917
Objective To analyse the transcriptome sequencing results of Eucommia ulmoides calli under light and dark culture condition, and verify the expression level of the related genes of flavonoid biosynthesis from transcriptome sequencing results. Methods The transcriptome high-throughput sequencing of E. ulmoides calli was performed by using the Illumina HiSeqTM 2500 sequencing platform, and de novo assembly of the transcriptome sequencing results was finished by Trinity software. The sequencing results of Unigenes were compared with the databases of NR, Swiss-Prot, GO, COG, KOG, KEGG and Pfam by BLAST software. The gene expression abundance was estimated by FPKM value. qRT-PCR was used to verify the expression level of the related genes of flavonoid biosynthesis. Results About 13.00 Giga base pairs (Gbp) clean data (more than 6.02 Gbp, respectively) were obtained, and de novo assembly generated 62 030 Unigenes with an average length of 736.40 bp. A total of 25 167 Unigenes were annotated to Nr. Totally 4 794 Unigenes and their associated enzymes (enzyme commission numbers) were annotated to 82 KEGG pathway. There were 1 986 genes identified as significantly and differentially expressed genes between the two calli under light and dark culture. Among them, 1 139 (57.35%) were up-regulated and 847 (42.65%) were down-regulated in the calli under light culture. Metabolic pathway analysis revealed that seven Unigenes were predicted to be responsible for the flavonoid biosynthesis, six Unigenes of which were up-regulated in the calli under light culture, encoding chalcone isomerase (EC 5.5.1.6), chalcome synthase (EC 2.3.1.74), flavonoid 3’-monooxygenase (EC1.14.13.21), trans-cinnamate 4-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.13.11), Flavonol synthase (EC 1.14.11.23), shikimate-O-hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (EC 2.3.1.133). One Unigene was down-regulated in the calli under light culture, which encoded leucocyanidin oxygenase (EC 1.14.11.19). qRT-PCR analysis showed that the expression of the seven genes related with flavonoid biosynthesis was coincident with the transcriptome high-throughput sequencing results. Conclusion The white light (12 000 lx, 16 h light and 8 h dark) could improve the production capacity of some metabolic intermediate of flavonoid biosynthesis pathway of E. ulmoides calli.

Objective To investigate the effects of the HLA-Ⅰ and co-stimulators CD_(80)and CD_(86)on HT-29 cells surface, after heat killed Bifidobacterium and HT-29 cells were mingled culturing for 12 hours. Methods The HLA-Ⅰ and co-stimulators CD_(80)and CD_(86)on HT-29 cells surface were measured by Flow Cytometer. Results Heat killed Bifidobacterium can improve the expressions of HLA-1, CD_(80)and CD_(86)on HT-29 cells significantly, the livability of colon carcinoma cell was more than 90 %. Conclusion Heat killed Bifidobacterium have potential antitumorous features.

In this paper, the action of suet oil in the preparation of self-assembled micelles of the active flavonoids in Epimedium in the simulated human environment was researched. Twelve suet oil samples were collected from different growing areas and different positions of sheep or goat to simulate the formation of micelles. Then the effects of the fatty acids in suet oil on the preparation of self-assembled micelles were studied furthermore. The results showed that the micelles had a dispersed state and spherical smooth surface. To compare the diameter, potential, encapsulation efficiency and drug loading of the 12 batches micelles, the micelles prepared by the suet oil from Qinghai were more stable and had a higher encapsulation efficiency. The fatty acids in suet oil could promote the formation of self-assembled micelles, but the whole suet oil had a better effect. Above all the study, we confirmed that the suet oil promoted the formation of self-assembled micelles of the flavonoids in Epimedium, it laid foundation for further research about increasing the efficacy of Epimedium and improved the absorption of the active flavonoids in Epimedium.
