Objective To explore mechanism of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) on improvement of cognitive function and alleviation of hippocampal insulin resistance in APP/PS 1 transgenetic mice. Method 12 months old female APP/PS 1 mice were randomly divided into 3 groups:model group(Tg), EGCG low dose group (Tg/EGCG-L), high dose group(Tg/EGCG-H). C 57 BL/6 J mice were utilized as control. learning and memory ability in 4 group mice were detected by morris water maze test(MWM). The hippocampal TNF-α/JNK signal and IRS-1 pSer 312 expression were detected by Western blot and immunohistochemical staining. Results Compared with NT mice, Tg mice showed a marked prolongation of the escape latency and swimming distance in the MWM test(P<0.05);Abnormal activation of TNF-α/JNK signaling and increased IRS-1 pSer 312 expression in the hippocampus of Tg mice(P<0.05). EGCG-treated Tg mice showed significantly improvement of all these abnormal changes(P<0.05). Conclusion EGCG treatment is able to alleviate hippocampal insulin resistance and improve cognitive function in the APP/PS 1 mice. which may be partly attributed to the reduction of TNF-α/JNK signaling activity in this AD mouse model.

In comparison with the American Society of Hematology (ASH) annual meeting last year,more studies of hematologic malignancies using next generation sequencing (NGS) are published in the 56th ASH meeting this year.NGS was mainly used in the diagnosis and classification,risk stratification,MRD detection,clonal evolution,prognosis and therapy guidance.This short report will address the application of NGS in the study of hematologic malignancies by summarizing several representative publications from the 56th ASH meeting.

At the 58th American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting,there were many reports on clonal evolution related with blood disease.Gene mutation and clonal evolution after treatment of azacitidine (AZA) in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) were summarized to explore the relationship between clonal evolution and treatment response and clinical process in MDS,and to provide reference for clinical treatment decision.

BACKGROUND:Femoral neck fracture combined with femoral shaft fracture as a high-energy injury exhibits some difficulties in its clinical treatment because of bone chips and bone defects. Bone and cel transplantations have been used recently in order to effectively fil the bone defect area. OBJECTIVE:To explore the therapeutic effect of bone transplantation versus cel transplantation for treatment of femoral neck fracture combined with femoral shaft fracture. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed in patients with femoral neck fracture combined with femoral shaft fracture, who respectively underwent internal fixation with bone transplantation, tissue transplantation and cel transplantation. Perioperative indexes, incidence of complications and Harris scores were observed and compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Femoral neck fractures are most commonly classified into Garden type, AO type and Pauwel type. Fracture classification aims to unify standards, which is easy to guide treatment and scientific research. (2) Internal fixation with bone transplantation and tissue transplantation is easy, safe and effective to promote fracture healing and improve hip function, which is an effective way to repair femoral neck fractures with femoral shaft fractures. (3) Compared with autogenous bone graft, alograft transplantation materials as finished products have a variety of sources, and have indications and efficacy similar to non-vascularized bone graft, which are suitable for clinical practice, but long-term effects need to be furtherexplored. (4) Internal fixation with cel transplantation is simple, reliable and effective for femoral neck fractures with femoral shaft fractures, which provides a new idea to reduce the early incidence of femoral head necrosis.

Heart failure is one of the most common acute and critical disease in pediatric,early diagnosis of diseases is an important cli-nical value.The current study found that brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)is a peptide hormone,which is secreted mainly by ventricle and may reflect the state of cardiac function;BNP level of detection is contributive to the diagnosis,treatment of heart failure,etc.J Appl Clin Pediatr,2009,24(1):64-66

This paper summarizes the nursing care of a child with hand,food and mouth disease complicating multiple organ failure,such as use of ice-blanket and strategies of vessel protection. As a result,the child recovered well and was discharged after rehabilitation.

Objective To observe the curative effect that losartan potassium combined with enalapril used in treating Ⅳ phase diabetic nephropathy(DN). Methods Divided 74 Ⅳ phase DN suffers into 3 groups randomly.Losartan group:taken losartan potassium lablets 100 mg once every day orally,enalapril group:taken enalapril tablets 10 mg once every day orally,consociation group:taken the two drugs above ai one time with the same dosage.The treatment in the 3 groups were all above 3 years.monitoring the 24-hour albuminuria and SCr back and forth the treatment.Results It worthed statistics meaning that the 24-hour albuminuria in the 3 groups all declined(P＜0.05).The effect of consociation group did better(P＜O.01).In term of SCr,it declined in the consociation group worthed statisties meaning only.Conclusion The consociation application with losartan potassium and enalapril can control the proteinuria of Ⅳ phage DN suffers efficiently as well as defer process of kidney diseases.

ObjectiveTo confirm the effect of miR-93 inhibitor in glioma cell growth and invasion.MethodsMalignant glioma cells were transfected with miR-93 inhibitor by lipofectamin to downregulate their overexpression of miR-93.Real time-PCR was taken to measure miR-93 expression after transfection.The cell cycle kinetics and cell growth rate were detected by flowcytometry and MTT assay,the cell proliferative ability was evaluated by soft agar assay,and the invasive ability was detected by transwell assay.ResultsThe highlevel expression of miR-93 was downregulated effectively in glioma cells after transfecting the miR-93 inhibitor.Meanwhile,the cell cycle progress was delayed,S phase cells were reduced,the speed of growth was slowed,cloning formation ability was receded,the number of cells through the matrigel was reduced,and invasive ability was significantly repressed.ConclusionDownregulation of miR-93 expression could inhibit the proliferative ability and invasive ability of glioma cells.

Objective:To investigate whether the mindfulness training can reduce the aggression level and im-prove the sleeping quality among incarcerated people.Methods:Fifty-four male criminals were recruited into the study.They were divided into mindfulness training group (n =25)and control group (n =29).The training group took mindfulness exercise once a week for 6 weeks.While the participants in waiting list control group waited for 6 weeks without intervention.After 6-week mindfulness training for training group and post-assessment for all partici-pants,the waiting list control group went into 6-week mindfulness training.The Five Facet Mindfulness Question-naire (FFMQ),Aggression Questionnaire (AQ)and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)were assessed before and after the intervention.Results:There were 19 valid data in training group,and 21 in control group.After 6-week training,the score difference between pre-and post-assessment of FFMQ (P <0.01 )was higher in the training group than in the control group,and the difference of AQ (P <0.01)and PSQI (P <0.01)was lower in training group than in the control group.Conclusion:The results suggest that 6-week mindfulness training could effectively reduce the aggression level and improve the sleep quality in the long-term incarcerated males.
