Objective To analysis the consequence of current perception threshold (CPT) by different frequency and time of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS). Methods CPT of foramen area and arm area was measured to evaluate the effect of TENS. Different frequency and time of TENS was given to 30 healthy volunteers. Stimulating to Hegu, CPT of the foramen area and the arm area on the same side was measured. Results CPT of the foramen area increased with stimulation. Low frequency of TENS inhibited the chronic pain significantly(P＜0.05),high frequency of TENS inhibited both of the chronic pain and the acute pain(P＜0.05). The inhibition of pain is more influenced by the frequency of TENS than the time of it. Conclusion Channel and point of TENS can influence CPT of the specific reaction area. And the choice of appropriate frequency of the treatment is more important than extending the treatment time alone.

Objective To explore whether emotion regulation mediates the relationship between occupational stress and job burnout in a large sample of nurses, in order to provide a targeted intervention. Methods Chinese Nurses Stressor Scale, Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey, Emotion Regulation Questionnaire and Ruminative Responses Scale were used to investigate 602 nurses working in three tertiary hospitals in Jinan. SPSS 16.0 and AMOS 17.0 software were used to analyze the data. Results Job burnout were positively correlated with stressors, expression suppression and rumination (r=0.112–0.576, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with cognitive reappraisal (r=-0.277, P<0.01). Stressors were positively correlated with expression suppression and rumination (r = 0.140–0.403, P <0.01), and negatively correlated with cognitive reappraisal (r =-0.110, P < 0.01). Occupational stress could make a positive role on job burnout directly. Moreover, in the indirect approach, occupational stress could make a positive role on job burnout through the mediating role of cognitive reappraisal and ruminative, but not expression suppression. Conclusions Cognitive reappraisal and ruminative partially mediated the relationship between occupational stress and job burnout.

Objective To evaluate the role of hypoxia inducible factor?1α ( HIF?1α) in reduction of apoptosis in cortical neurons of rats by sevoflurane preconditioning and the relationship with Slit2∕Robo signaling pathway. Methods Primary cortical neurons obtained from neonatal Sprague?Dawley rats were seeded in 6?well (2 ml∕well) or 96?well plates (100 μl∕well) at a density of 1×106∕ml, and randomly divided into 4 groups ( n=24 each ) using a random number table: control group ( C group ) , anoxia?reoxygenation ( A∕R ) group, sevoflurane preconditioning group ( SP group ) and HIF?1α inhibitor 2?methoxyestradiol group ( H group ) . The neurons were subjected to O2?glucose deprivation for 90 min followed by restoration of O2?glucose supply for 24 h. In group SP, the neurons were exposed to 2%sevoflurane for 2 h followed by 5 min washout with phosphate buffered saline for 3 times, and then sevoflurane preconditioning was performed immediately. In group H, sevoflurane preconditioning was performed with 5μmol∕L 2?methoxyestradiol at 72 h of incubation. The apoptosis in neurons was assessed using AnnexinⅤ?FITC∕PI assay, and apoptosis rate ( AR) was calculated. The amount of lactic dehydrogenase ( LDH) released was measured using colorimetric method. The expression of Slit2, Robo1 and Robo4 mRNA and protein was detected by fluorescent quantitative real?time polymerase chain reaction or Western blot. Results Compared with group C, the amount of LDH released and AR were significantly increased, Silt2 and Robo1 mRNA and protein expression was up?regulated, and no significant change was found in Robo4 mRNA and protein expression in A∕R group. Compared with group A∕R, the amount of LDH released and AR were significantly decreased in SP and H groups, and Silt2 and Robo1 mRNA and protein expression was up?regulated, and no significant change was found in Robo4 mRNA and protein expression in SP group. Compared with group SP, the amount of LDH released and AR were significantly increased, and Silt2 and Robo1 mRNA and protein expression was down?regulated in H group. Conclusion HIF?1α mediates reduction of apoptosis in cortical neurons of rats by sevoflurane preconditioning, and the mechanism is associated with Slit2∕Robo1 signaling pathway, but not with Slit2∕Robo4 signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the impact of tube current and tube voltage on CT attenuation,the correlation between CT attenuation and iodine concentration,as well as the percentage of reducing dosage for contrast agent while reducing the tube voltage.Methods A total of 100 saline solutions with decreasing dilution of contrast medium,in which concentration was between 0.5 to 50.0 mg/ml with the interval of 0.5 mg/ml,was produced.Each of the 25 syringes with a 4 ml sample was fixed on a cylindrical CT calibrated water phantom with an equal distance used the tape.CT scans were performed with a total of 15 scanning methods of the combination of the different tube voltages (70,80,100,140 kV) and tube current (100,200,280 mA).All of the CT attenuations were measured and recorded.The differences of CT attenuations under different scanning tube currents and tube voltages were compared with one-way ANOVA.The Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between CT attenuation and iodine concentration,and linear correlation equations were calculated and shown by regression analysis.According to the equations,the changes of contrast medium dosage were calculated with the changes of tube voltage.Results There was no significant difference in CT attenuations on different tube currents when the tube voltage was fixed (all P＞0.05),while when the tube current was fixed,the difference of CT attenuations on different tube voltages was statistically significant (all P＜0.05).Under different scanning conditions,the CT attenuations was linearly related to the iodine concentration (r2 was 0.953 to 0.997,all P＜0.01).While the tube voltage was reduced from 140 kV to 120 kV,100 kV,80 kV,70 kV,respectively,the iodine concentration of the samples were reduced by 15.4％,33.7％,53.4％,64.7％ respectively.While the voltage was reduced from 120 kV to 100 kV,80 kV,70 kV,respectively,the iodine concentration were rednced by 21.6％,44.9％,58.2％,respectively.While the voltage was reduced from 100 kV to 80 kV and 70 kV,the iodine concentration was reduced by 29.7％ and 46.7％,respectively.While the voltage was reduced from 80 kV to 70 kV,the iodine concentration was reduced by 24.1％.Conclusion CT attenuation can keep constant in low tube voltage setting by reducing the dosage of contrast agent,which can achieve a low radiation dose and low contrast agent dosage.

Objective To evaluate effects of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) on expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) in ultraviolet B (UVB)-radiated HaCaT cells.Methods Conventionally cultured HaCaT cells were divided into control group and LBP groups,which were firstly treated with DMEM,12.5,25.0,50.0 and 100 μg/ml LBP solution respectively for 4 hours,and then were irradiated by UVB at different intensity of 0,20,40,60 mJ/cm2 separately.After 24-hour continuing culture,CCK-8 assay was performed to determine the cell survival rate,and an enzymatic-biochemical method to estimate the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD).RT-PCR and Western blot analysis were conducted to measure the mRNA and protein expression of HIF-1α and VEGF respectively.Results Compared with the control group at the same UVB radiation dose,the 12.5-,25.0-and 100.0-μ,g/ml LBP groups showed different extents of increase in survival rates of UVB-radiated cells (P ＜ 0.05),and the 50.0-μg/ml LBP group showed the highest cell survival rate (P ＜ 0.01).Among all the LBP groups,SOD activity was highest in the 50.0-μg/ml LBP group (P ＜ 0.01).Along with the increase of UVB radiation dose,the mRNA and protein expression of HIF-1α and VEGF all gradually increased.Compared with the control group,the 50.0-μg/ml LBP group could effectively reduce the mRNA and protein expression of HIF-1α and VEGF in HaCaT cells (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion LBP may play a role in protecting cells from UVB radiation-mediated damage,likely by influencing the mRNA and protein expression of HIF-1α and VEGF in HaCaT cells.

Objective:To probe the diagnostic performance of the combined evaluation of stenosis and plaque characteristics based on coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) in identification of myocardial ischemic lesions, using the invasive coronary angiography (ICA)-based fractional flow reserve (FFR) as the gold standard.Methods:From November 2018 to March 2020, the patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease and scheduled for ICA at 5 clinical trials centers were enrolled in this study. All the patients underwent CCTA, ICA and FFR in turn in one week. The luminal stenosis and plaque characteristics were measured and assessed including plaque burden, volume ratios of calcification and non-calcification, lesion length and CT vulnerable features. All culprit vessels were divided into FFR≤0.8 and FFR>0.8 groups, and the parameters of plaque characteristics were compared. The correlation of ischemic lesions with CCTA stenosis and plaque characteristics was analyzed by the logistic regression analysis. The ROC curve was used to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of CCTA stenosis rate and plaque characteristics, meanwhile the area under curve (AUC) of each parameter was compared by Delong test.Results:Three hundred and sixty-six culprit vessels in 317 patients were analyzed in this study (169 vessels in ischemia group and 197 in nonischemia group). The plaque burden [34.3% (30.3%, 38.8%) vs. 32.4% (28.5%, 37.9%); Z=-2.622, P=0.009], proportion of CT vulnerable features [26.9% (45/169) vs.11.7% (23/197); χ 2=15.311, P<0.001] and lesion length [22.1 (14.4, 35.0) mm vs. 17.6 (11.0, 26.0) mm; Z=-4.388, P<0.001] in FFR≤0.8 group were higher than those in FFR>0.8 group. The results of logistic regression analysis revealed that CCTA stenosis, lesion length, and CT vulnerable features were significant predictors for myocardial ischemia (OR values: 3.794, 2.461, 1.027; P<0.001, P=0.002, P=0.002). The diagnostic performance of CCTA ≥50% stenosis alone in identification of ischemic lesions was low (AUC=0.625). When it combined high-risk plaque characteristics and lesion length, the AUC was improved to 0.714 with a statistical significance. Conclusions:CCTA stenosis, lesion length, and CT vulnerable features are major predictors in identification of myocardial ischemic lesions, and the combination will significantly improve the diagnostic performance of CCTA ≥50% stenosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of mother-infant early skin-to-skin contact with different duration on neonatal behavior and breast-feeding.Methods 80 infants born from January 2017 to June were selected and randomly divided into observation group and control group,40 cases in each group.The two groups were given early maternal and infant skin contact after birth.The observation group lasted for 1 hour,while the control group lasted until the perineal wound was sutured,with an average of (30.75 ± 1.13) minutes.Comparisons were made between the two groups in terms of crying within 0-1 h,5-6 h after birth,neonatal behavioral score (BNBAS) at 11 min and 119 min after birth,breastfeeding at the first and 6 weeks and 6 months after delivery.Results At 0-1 h,5-6 h after birth,the number and duration of crying in the observation group were significantly less than those in the control group,and the BNBAS score at 119 min was significantly lower than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).The score of breast feeding measurement tool in the observation group was (10.45 ± 2.22) at the time of first feeding,which was significantly higher than that in the control group (8.08 ± 1.61) (P ＜0.05).The rate of exclusive breastfeeding in the observation group was 72.5％ and 52.5％ at 6 weeks and 6 months postpartum,which was significantly higher than that in the control group (37.5％ and 17.5％,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions 1 hour of mother-infant early skin-to-skin contact can reduce awakening and cry of infant,improve the effect of breast-feeding.

Objective To survey the prevalence of stress urinary incontinence(SUI)and related knowledge among postpartum women in Shanghai Melong district.Methods A questionnaire survey on the knowledge of stress urinary incontinence was conducted among 317 postpartum women who were home visited by Meilong Community Health Service Center between March 2017 and June 2017.The self-designed questionnaire included the general situation(age, height, weight, occupation, menstrual history), pregnancy and childbirth, and knowledge of SUI; the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Short form(ICIQ-SF)was also used.Total 317 questionnaires were distributed and 313 valid ones were retrieved(98.73%).Results The prevalence of SUI in the participants was 26.84%(84/313).Multivariate logistic regression showed that BMI≥24 kg/m2(OR=6.24, 95% CI: 3.41 -11.41), complicated metabolic syndrome(OR=9.84, 95% CI: 2.77 -34.96)and birth weight of previous child ≥4 kg(OR=0.09,95%CI:0.04-0.19)is independent risk factors for the development of SUI.The average SUI knowledge score was(10.39 +8.65)points, only 26.20%(82/313)of the participants knew Kegel training(score 5.99 ±1.60).The SUI knowledge level of postpartum women was associated with educational level(F=12.41),occupation(F=9.06), income(F=4.05), reproductive history(F=10.98)and presence of urinary incontinence symptom(F=22.31)(all P<0.05). Conclusion The knowledge level of maternal stress urinary incontinence in Meilong district is relatively low,and the publicity of SUI and pelvic floor rehabilitation knowledge should be enhanced for the pregnant women.

Objective: To investigate the diagnostic value of some antibodies in peritoneal fluid of patients with gastric cancer and malignant epithelioid mesothelioma in serous effusion. Methods: One hundred and eighty-two cases of serous effusion were collected at Jilin Cancer Hospital, from July 2012 to July 2016. The expression of GLUT1, CDX2, Villin, calretinin and WT1 was evaluated using SP immunocytochemical technique in peritoneal fluid samples collected from 98 patients with gastric cancer and 74 patients with reactive mesothelial cells. The expression of GLUT1, calretinin and WT1 was also evaluated in serous effusion from 10 patients with mesothelioma. Results: The sensitivity of GLUT1, CDX2 and Villin in adenocarcinoma cells was 91.8%(90/98), 68.4% (67/98) and 88.8%(87/98), respectively. The specificity was 95.9% (71/74), 100.0%(74/74) and 100.0% (74/74), respectively. The sensitivity of calretinin and WT1 for reactive mesothelium was 93.2% (69/74) and 79.7% (59/74), respectively. The specificity was 96.9% (95/98) and 100.0% (98/98), respectively. The sensitivity of GLUT1, calretinin and WT1 for mesothelioma was 9/10, 9/10 and 7/10. The reactivity of GLUT1, CDX2, Villin, calretinin and WT1 showed a significant difference (P<0.01) between adenocarcinoma cells and reactive mesothelium. The reactivity of GLUT1 showed a significant difference (P<0.01) between mesothelioma and reactive mesothelium. Conclusions The optimal combination is a panel of GLUT1, CDX2, Villin, calretinin and WT1 for differential diagnosis between adenocarcinoma cells and reactive mesothelium in peritoneal fluid of patients with gastric cancer. Whereas GLUT1, calretinin and WT1 is the best for differential diagnosis between reactive mesothelium and mesothelioma in serous effusions.
