Objective To observe and comparatively analysize the effect of intraperitoneal injection of hydrogen and hydrogen-rich saline in neonatal rats with hyperoxia-induced lung injury.Methods Sprague-Dawley(SD) newborn rats were randomly divided into six groups(n=10).air group(A),air+ hydrogen-rich saline group(B),air+hydrogen group(C),hyperoxia group(D),hyperoxia+hydrogen-rich saline group (E) and hyperoxia+ hydrogen group(F).The group A,B and C were exposed to air and group D,E and F were exposed to 95 ％ oxygen.The group B and E were intraperitoneally injected with hydrogen-rich saline (10 mL/kg,twice daily),while the groups C and F with hydrogen (10 mL/kg,twice daily).The group A and D were injected with normal saline(10 mL/kg,twice daily).Lung tissue and serum samples were collected on 15 d of experiment.The pathological changes of lung tissue and radiate alveoli count (RAC) were observed by HE staining.The content of HYP in lung tissue was detected by the alkaline hydrolysis method,serum SOD and MDA levels were measured.The expression of α-SMA in lung tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry SP method.Results Compared with the A group,RAC and SOD activities in the D group were significantly decreased,while the HYP and MDA levels and α-SMA expression were significantly increased.Hydrogen intervention could significantly alleviate these changes caused by hyperoxia.while intraperitoneal injection of hydrogen got better effect than intraperitoneal injection of hydrogen-rich saline.Conclusion Hydrogen can extenuate the indexes of hyperoxia-induced lung oxidative damage,impairment development and fibrosis to a certain extent.Intraperitoneal injection of hydrogen has slightly better effect than hydrogen-rich saline.

Objective To examine the effects of sodium phenylbutyrate on the apoptosis of human tongue squamous cancer cell line and expression of p21 and survivin genes.Methods The inhibition effects of sodium phenylbutyrate on Tca8113 and human tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TCSSA) cell lines were detected by methyl thiazoly terazolium (MTT) and the apoptosis of the cancer cells after being induced by sodium phenylbutyrate examined by flow cytometry(FCM).The expression of p21 and survivin genes were observed with Western blotting and RT-PCR Results Compared with control group,the level of p21 mRNA and protein of Tca8113 cellline increased to 0.09±0.08 and increased 0.72±0.10,that of TCSSA cellline increased 1.34±0.12 and 1.56±0.09(P <0.05).Compared with control group,the level of surrive mRNA and protein of Tca8113 cellline decreased to 1.10±0.05 and 1.14±1.10,that of TCSSA cellline decreased to 0.12±0.08 and 0.94±0.09 (P < 0.05) .Sodium phenylbutyrate inhibited the cell proliferation ,promoted cell apoptosis and arrested the cells in G1/G0 phase.The amount of p21 mRNA and protein were increased,and the expression of survivin gene was decreased.Conclusions Sodium phenylbutyrate exhibited remarkable inhibitory effects on human tongue squamous cancer cell proliferation and induced cancer cell apoptosis.The mechanism may be due to up-regulation of p21 gene and downregulation of survivin gene.The mRNA level of p21 gene and survivin gene showed a strong correlation.

Objective To analyze the status quo of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) of the elderly in recent years in Shenzhen, to explore the characteristics of temporal and spatial distribution,and to establish prediction model of STDs of the elderly in Shenzhen. MethodsUsing the surveillance system data of STDs from 2005 to 2009 in Shenzhen city, the incidence, temporal and spatial distribution of syphilis and gonorrhea were analyzed in the elderly aged 50 years and over by SaTScan. The incidence prediction model of STDs was established by Eviews 5.0.Results (1)The incidences of the two kinds of STDs from 2005 to 2009 in Shenzhen were on the rise and on more marked increase in male than in female. The rising velocity in over-60 year age group was similar with in 50-59 year age group. The rising velocity of syphilis was faster than gonorrhea. (2)The space-time distribution analysis showed there were clusters of the STDs in elderly men in 2005 in Lianhua and Meilin districts (P = 0. 026, RR= 2.13). (3) ARIMA (0, 1,1) (0,0, 1) 12 model was a suitable forecasting model for STDs in elderly men in Shenzhen. Conclusions

AIM:To explore the expression level of tristetraprolin(TTP)in rats after subarachnoid hemor-rhage(SAH)as well as the potential role of TTP in the early brain injury(EBI)after SAH in rats.METHODS:In the first experiment setting,total 56 adult male SD rats were randomly divided into sham group and SAH group.The SAH mod-el was performed by endovascular perforation.The brain tissues were taken out after SAH at 5 different time points(0,12, 24,48,72 h and 1 week).The expression of TTP in the brain tissues was detected by Western blot.In the second experi-ment,a total of 60 SD rats were divided into 4 groups: sham group, SAH group, SAH +vector group and SAH +TPP group.Neurological score,brain water content and blood-brain barrier were evaluated at 48 h after SAH.TUNEL staining was performed to detect cell apoptosis in the rat brain tissue.ELISA method was used for quantitative detection of interleu-kin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α).The protein levels of TTP,Bax,Bcl-2 and cleaved caspase-3 in the rat brain tissue were detected by Western blot.RESULTS:The protein expression of TTP in the brain was downregulated markedly from 12 h after SAH,reached the lowest level at 48 h,and then had an upward trend.After modeling for 48 h, Garcia neurological score was significantly reduced,and brain water content and Evans blue(EB)content of the brain tis-sue of the rats in SAH group were significantly higher than those in sham group(P<0.05).SAH induced significant in-creases in IL-6 and TNF-αlevels in the brain tissue(P<0.05).The number of TUNEL-stained cells was increased in the subcortical brain region after SAH compared with sham group.In addition,a lower level of Bcl-2 and higher levels of Bax and cleaved caspase-3 in the rat brains were observed at 48 h after SAH.However,the neurological deficit score was signif-icantly increased,and the brain water content and EB content in the rat brains were significantly reduced in SAH +TTP group in comparison with SAH +vector group(P<0.05).Over-expression of TTP dramatically suppressed the levels of IL-6 and TNF-αin the rat brains,and reduced the number of TUNEL positive cells.Furthermore,upregulation of TTP signifi-cantly decreased the levels of cleaved caspase-3 and Bax, and evidently enhanced the expression of Bcl-2(P<0.01). CONCLUSION:The expression of TTP is significantly decreased in early period after SAH, and enhancing the level of TTP effectively inhibits EBI following SAH in rats.

Objective:To understand the symptom perception and coping experience of postoperative delirium in patients with Stanford type A aortic dissection (TAAD) .Methods:Using the purposive sampling method, a total of 13 patients with delirium after Stanford type A aortic dissection who were admitted to Department of Cardiovascular Surgery of Henan Provincial Chest Hospital from July 2020 to July 2021 were selected as the research objects. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with patients using the phenomenological research method and the interview data were analyzed using the Colaizzi 7-step analysis method.Results:Postoperative delirium in patients with TAAD was classified into four sub-themes, such as confusion, physical and mental discomfort, cognitive disturbance and death perception. The coping experience was classified into three sub-themes, such as communication barriers, lack of encouragement and support and need for safe companionship.Conclusions:Patient with delirium after TAAD have many uncomfortable symptoms and long for support and help.

AIMTo study the changes in rheological properties, namely the parameters of the hysteresis loops and yield stress versus time for human semen after ejaculation.

METHODSEjaculates were obtained from volunteers and immediately put into the test cup of a Brookfield Programmable DV-11 Rheometer, by which the hysteresis loops and yield stress were determined.

RESULTS(1) Yield stress values dropped down from more than 3000 mPa to 60 mPa in about 5 minutes after ejaculation; (2) The shape of the hysteresis loops of shear stress versus shear rate was changed from the counter-clockwise direction, that enclosed a large area, into the clockwise direction, that enclosed a very small area.

CONCLUSIONHuman ejaculate originally possesses semi-solid or visco-elastic body behavior and in 5 minutes after liquefaction, it becomes a thixotropic fluid or shearing thinning fluid with very low viscosity.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the protective effect of hydrogen against hyperoxia-induced oxidative stress injury in premature rat type II alveolar epithelial cells (AECs).

METHODSThe type II AECs isolated from premature rats were randomly divided into air (21% oxygen) control group, hyperoxia (95% oxygen) control group, air + hydrogen group, and hyperoxia+ hydrogen group. The cells with hydrogen treatment were cultured in the presence of rich hydrogen. After the corresponding exposure for 24 h, the cell morphology was observed microscopically. MTT assay was used to evaluated the cell proliferation ability, and JC-1 fluorescence probe was used to detect the mitochondrial membrane potential (δφ) changes of the type II AECs. The concentration of maleic dialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in the cell supernatant were detected using colorimetric method.

RESULTSNo significant differences were found in cell growth or measurements between air control and air + hydrogen groups. Compared with air control group, the cells exposed to hyperoxia showed significantly suppressed proliferation, reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, increased MDA content, and decreased SOD activity. Intervention with hydrogen resulted in significantly increased cell proliferation and SOD activity and lowered MDA content, and restored the mitochondrial membrane potential in the cells with hyperoxia exposure (P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONHydrogen can significantly reduce hyperoxia-induced oxidative stress injury in premature rat type II AECs, improve the cellular antioxidant capacity, stabilize the mitochondrial membrane potential, and reduce the inhibitory effect of hyperoxia on cell proliferation.

OBJECTIVETo explore the molecular cytogenetic characteristics in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

METHODSInterphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to detect trisomy 12, deletion of 13q14 and 17p13 in 60 patients with CLL.

RESULTSOut of the 60 patients, 41 (68.3%) had at least one kind of molecular cytogenetic aberrations. Two (3.3%) had two kinds of abnormalities. Trisomy 12 was found in 12 (20.0%) cases, 13q14 deletion in 24 (40.0%) cases and 17p13 deletion in 5 (11.7%) cases. The number of trisomy 12 cells ranged from 4.0% to 34.0%, 13q14 deletion ranged from 22.0% to 93.0% and 17p13 deletion ranged from 6.0% to 68.0%. There was no significant difference among each Binet stages.

CONCLUSIONFISH is a more rapid, accurate and sensitive technique in analysis of chromosome aberrations in CLL. FISH may provide accurate information of molecular cytogenetics for CLL.
