BACKGROUND:It is an important and complex issue for the incidence of bacterial infection and complications after transplantation. The monitoring and care after transplantation can improve the success rate of transplantation. OBJECTIVE:To search the database of China National Knowledge Infrastructure, North American Clinical Trial Register and Thomson Reuters Web of Science database, and to perform literature metrological analysis and clinical trials registration project analysis on the published literatures of the monitoring and care after transplantation. METHODS:A total of 138 literatures were searched with the key words of“intensive care, transplantation”in the database of China National Knowledge Infrastructure on the intensive care after transplantation. 23 literatures were used for further analysis by reading titles and abstracts and 115 papers were excluded; the Thomson Reuters Web of Science database was searched with the key words of“intensive care, transplantation”for the literatures on the intensive care after transplantation published from 2008 to 2013;the North American Clinical Trial Register was searched with the key words of“intensive care, transplantation”for the related clinical trials, and a total of 50 registered projects were obtained, only 10 interventional studies. RESUTLS AND CONCLUSION:In recent years, the literatures on the intensive care after transplantation show a gradual increase trend. Compared with international research, fewer researches in this field emerge in China, literature quantity and quality need to be improved. There have been 1 693 papers published in the Thomson Reuters Web of Science database regarding the intensive care after transplantation. United States published the most literatures than other countries, total 532 papers, accounting for the largest proportion, 31.424%of total literatures. Transplantation Proceeding published the most literatures, total 144 papers, accounting for 8.506%of total literatures. There are 50 clinical trial registration projects related to the intensive care after transplantation in the North American Clinical Trial Register, 10 of them were interventional study, accounting for the majority, fol owed by observational study. Diagnostic study had no related registration projects. The surgery of transplantation was complex with trauma. The early monitoring and care post-transplantation are directly related to the success of surgery. Strengthening the monitoring and care of patients’ vital signs, rejection, bacterial infections and other aspects can reduce the complications and improve patients survival rate and quality of life.

AIM: To observe the effect of adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH) on the levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), trkB and corticotropin-releasing hormone(CRH) in the hippocampus of arthritic rats.METHODS: The BDNF immunoreactivity (IR) and CRH-positive neurons were stained with immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization methods, respectively.RESULTS: The BDNF-IR, CRH mRNA-positive neurons in the contralateral hippocampus of the arthritic rats were increased significantly, which was decreased markedly by intraperitoneal injection of ACTH. However, the effect of ACTH was attenuated after adrenalectomy (ADX).CONCLUSION: These results suggest that BDNF and CRH in the hippocampus of arthritic rats were involved in the modulation of chronic pain, ACTH produced its analgesic effect by inhibiting the increase in BDNF and CRF level. Adrenal is critical to the analgesic action of ACTH.

Objective To investigate the effects of myricetin (Myr) on A549 lung cancer cell proliferation and its mechanism. Method The inhibitory effects of Myr on the growth of A549 cells were investigated and its value of IC50 after 72 h incubation was measured by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazolyl -2)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) method. The phosphorylation level of Akt protein was studied by Western blotting. Results Myr inbibited A549 cell proliferation in dose-dependent way. The IC50 value of Myr treatment for 72 h was 41.7 ?g/ml. Treatments with 32 ?g/ml Myr for 12 h significantly reduced the protein kinase B (Akt Ser473) phosphorylation. Conclusion Myr could inhibit the growth of A549 cell in a dose-dependent way. Akt phosphorylation may be the mainly molecular target of Myr in A549.

Objective To explore the potential role of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 ( MCP-1 ) gene in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury (ALI) in early acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP). Methods Forty SD rats were randomly divided into control group, ANP 3, 6, 12 h group with 10 rats in each group according to a number table. ANP was induced by intraperitoneal injection of 15% L-arginine solution at a dose of 2.0 mg/g body weight. Pathological changes of pancreases and lungs were observed. Lung wet/dry weight ratio was measured. Intrapulmonary expression of MCP-1 mRNA was evaluated by RT-PCR. Results After intraperitoneal injection of 15% L-arginine solution, the rat's pancreas presented with bleeding, necrosis comparable with pathological changes of ANP. Pulmonary tissue edema was obvious. At ANP 3, 6, 12 h group, the pathological scores of the lung were 3.75±0.58,5.50 ±0.63,5.86 ±0.54, the wet/dry weight ratios were 4.85 ±0.38,4.97 ± 0.47,5.03 ± 0. 46, the MCP-1 mRNA expressions were 0.36 ± 0.08, 0. 56 ± 0. 15, 0. 72 ± 0.21,which were significantly higher than those in the control group (0.12 ±0.05,4.32 ±0.33,0.21 ±0.05, P<0.05 or <0.01 ). The MCP-1 mRNA expression in lungs was significantly correlated with the degree of lung damage and wet/dry weight ratio of lungs (r=0.75,r=0.89,P<0.05).Conclusions MCP-1 mRNA expression was up-regulated in the early phase of ANP in the lungs, and it may play an important role in ALI during ANP.

Objective Analyzing the regional distribution discrepancy of medical and health resources in China,with the purpose of providing the government with policy making evidences for optimizing medical and health resource allocation.Results Dividing China into three regions based on regional economic development and geographic setting,and selecting 6 indicators for medical and health resources.On the basis of the statistics of 31 provinces released by the state in 2009,analyzing the interprovincial disparities of the distribution of these six resources,by means of the coefficient of variation,Gini coefficient and Theil index.Methods The largest inter-regional allocation disparity is found in the number of biopharmaceutical manufacturing companies per ten thousand population.And the smallest discrepancy is found in the number of hospital beds among these regions.The top two extreme differences of resource possession per ten thousand population between the maximum and the minmum region are the number of biopharmaceutical manufacturing companies and tertiary hospitals.The eastern region is the largest contributor to the discrepancy of allocation for the six resources within and between regions.The less developed regions contribute the most inter-regional discrepancy for the allocation of medical practitioners(their assistants included),hospital beds,tertiary hospitals and pharmaceutical companies.And the developed regions contribute the most inter-regional discrepancy of medical finance support from local governments and the most of the allocation of biopharmaceutical manufacturing companies.In general,regions of higher development enjoy greater possession of the SIX resources per population in such regions. But these two are not always in direct proportion. Condnsion Regional distribution disparity of the six resources is not yetreasonable in China.To better meet the health needs of the population in various regions,the government is expected to increase its financial support for building biopharmaceutical manufacturing companies and tertiary hospitals in the less developed western regions,to better use resources of developed regions,and to keep off investments at low level and repetition.The government is also recommended to pay attention to the proportion of government health finance output and the quality and quantity of medical practitioners.
