Objective To observe the contents of acid phosphatase (ACP) of Oncomelania snails infected with Schistosma japonicum.Methods Both the blood lymphocytes of positive and negative Oncomelania snails were dyed with the histochemistry staining method and their ACPs were observed under a microscope. Results The contents of ACP in the positive Oncomelania snails increased, being significantly higher than those in the negative snails. Conclusion The contents of ACP increase in Oncomelania snails infected with Schistosoma japonicum and ACP may have the defence function.

Objective: To study changes of peripheral blood lymphocyte calcineurin/ nuclear factor of activated T cells (CaN/NFAT) signaling pathway and calcium activated potassium channel (KCa3.1) expression in Kazak hypertensive patients with high high sensitive C reactive protein (hsCRP) level from Xinjiang, and explore the mechanism of lymphocyte potassium channel involving in inflammation of hypertension.Methods: Kazak hypertensive patients from Xinjiang, who were first diagnosed in our heart center without antihypertensive therapy from Feb 2014 to Nov 2014, were selected.According to detected hsCRP level, a total of 50 hsCRP≥3mg/L patients were enrolled as high hsCRP group, and 50 hsCRP<3mg/L patients were enrolled as normal hsCRP group.Gene and protein expression levels of KCa3.1 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, and activities of lymphocyte CaN and NFAT were measured and compared between two groups.Results: Compared with normal hsCRP group, there were significant rise in expression levels of lymphocyte KCa3.1 mRNA [(0.86±0.16) vs.(2.48±0.22)], TNF-α mRNA [(1.02±0.15) vs.(2.90±0.13)], KCa3.1 protein [(1.00±0.02) vs.(2.46±0.04)] and TNF-α protein [(1.01±0.02) vs.(2.04±0.06)], and activities of CaN [(1.04±0.15) vs.(2.83±0.08)] and NFAT [(0.96±0.06) vs.(2.65±0.07)] in high hsCRP group, P<0.01 all.Conclusion: In Kazak hypertensive patients with inflammatory reaction from Xinjiang, KCa3.1 and CaN-NFAT signaling pathway expression rises, suggesting that lymphocyte KCa3.1 may be involved in occurrence and development of hypertension via CaN/NFAT signaling pathway.

Objective:To investigate the application effect of the best evidence for prevention of perioperative delirium in elderly patients with hip fracture.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 62 elderly patients with hip fractures admitted to the Trauma Department of Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from January to August 2021 were selected as the control group, and 62 elderly patients with hip fractures admitted from September 2021 to April 2022 were selected as the observation group. At the same time, 17 nurses from the same department were selected as the research objects. According to the standard procedures and clinical conversion system application methods of the Evidence Based Clinical Evidence Practice System at the Joanna Briggs Institute in Australia, the best evidences were applied to the prevention of delirium in elderly hip fracture patients during the perioperative period. Before and after the application of evidence, the compliance rates of the review indicators, the scores of knowledge and attitude on prevention of delirium in elderly patients with hip fracture and the occurrence of delirium in patients were compared.Results:After the application of evidence, the compliance rates of review indicators were higher than those before the application, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). The knowledge accuracy and attitude scores of delirium prevention in elderly nurses with hip fractures during perioperative period were higher than those before application, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The number of delirium cases in the observation group was lower than that in the control group, and the duration of delirium was shorter than that in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The clinical application of the best evidence for perioperative delirium prevention in elderly hip fractures can improve nurses' awareness and attitude towards perioperative delirium prevention in elderly hip fractures, and reduce the occurrence of delirium in patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum L-carnitine and its related metabolites[trimethylamine(TMA)and trimethylamine N-oxide(TMAO)]levels and gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM)in the second trimester of pregnant women in Shanghai.Methods A case-control study was conducted in 280 pregnant women between 18 and 23 weeks of gestation from January 2018 to January 2021.Among them,134 cases of GDM were the case group(GDM),and 146 cases with normal blood glucose(BG)were the control group(Con).Serum L-carnitine,TMA and TMAO levels were quantified by ultra high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.Logistic regression analysis,stratified analysis and linear regression were used to explore the relationship between L-carnitine,TMA and TMAO levels and GDM and glucolipid metabolism.Results Serum L-carnitinelevelwas significantly lower in GDM group than that in Con group(P<0.01).After adjusting for confounders,logistic regression showed a 70%reduction in the risk of GDM in the group with highest tertile of L-carnitine compared with the group with lowest tertile(OR 0.30,95%CI 0.15～0.63).The risk of GDM decreased by 14%for each 1 μmol/L increase in serum L-carnitine(OR 0.86,95%CI 0.80～0.93).Serum L-carnitine was negatively correlated with 1 hPG(r=-0.21,P<0.01)and 2 hPG(r=-0.15,P<0.05),respectively,TMA was negatively correlated with 2 hPG(r=-0.21,P<0.01).Conclusions Higher serum L-carnitine level may be negatively associated with GDM.Serum L-carnitine and TMA levels were negatively correlated with blood glucose levels.
