Objective To get knowledge of the indoor air pollution states in the newly renovated apartments in Xi’an city, and explore the relationship among the major pollutants and the relationship between the pollutants and the differences of seasons. Methods From January, 2006 to May, 2007, we randomly selected 138 newly renovated (3 months or less) apartments in the urban area of Xi’an city, tested their indoor (including bedrooms, living room, dining room, kitchen, bathrooms, study, a total of 597) content of formaldehyde, total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs), ammonia, benzene, toluene and xylene. Results Among which were detected in all of the pollutants, total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs) and formaldehyde own the highest exceeding rates, respectively 69.8% and 60.8%. They are followed by ammonia, whose exceeding rate is 13.2%, xylene which has the highest exceeding rate among the benzene compounds, 8.7%. We did comparative analysis of the concentration in different types of rooms for the pollutants which are among the top four in exceeding rate ranks, and found that only for formaldehyde, there is significant difference in statistics (P

According to foreign and domestic standards of clinical quality and the author team’ experience summary of long-term clinical study, it has been found that quality control in clinical acupuncture operators is closely related to operator’s ability, good communication between doctors and patients, signature for informed consent, implementation of inclusion and exclusion criteria, practice of blind method and random concealment, patient’s compliance, standardized writing and keeping of CRF, management of instruments and consumables, and coordination and association between researchers. The implementation method of quality control in clinical acupuncture operators is explored by the clinical practice of the author team in “973” project, and analysis and discussion of the above key points.

BACKGROUND:Silk fibroin/mesoporous glass ceramic composites have been reported to exert satisfactory repair outcomes in bone defects and hold good biocompatibility. However, the biosafety and preparation methods are rarely reported. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the preparation method and treatment outcomes of silk fibroin/mesoporous bioactive glass ceramic in skul repair. METHODS:Thirty-two Sprague-Dawley rats were enrol ed to establish the skul defect models and were thenrandomized into two groups:fibroin/mesoporous glass ceramic materials and silk fibroin were respectively implanted into the defect region in experimental and control groups. At 4 and 8 weeks after implantation, the CT examination and histological observation were performed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:CT examination showed that at 4 weeks after implantation, the defect area in the experimental group diminished in size, showing more dense new bones. The defect area of the control group was reduced, and a smal amount of new bones were observed. At 8 weeks after implantation, bone defect repair was completed in the experimental group, but not in the control group. The bone volume in the experimental group was significantly larger than that in the control group at different time points after implantation (P<0.05). Hematoxylin-eosin staining found that at 4 weeks after implantation, in the experimental group, there was new bone between the implant and the bone, which did not cause inflammation;there were few new bones and fibrous tissues in the control group. At 8 weeks after implantation, many new bones formed in the experimental group, with similar morphology to the host bone and the scaffold was degraded completely. Conversely, the implant material stil existed in the control group. In conclusion, the silk fibroin/mesoporous glass ceramic composite can promote bone repair.

Objective To investigate the effect of lentivirus-mediated RNA interference(RNAi) on the expression of PKCγ mRNA and protein in rat neurons.Methods Primary cultured cortical neurons from SD rat (16 days of pregnency) embryos were randomly divided into 3 groups with 6 wells in each group:control group (group C),negative group(group NC)and RNAi group.Group C received no treatment.Each well in group NC was given negative lentivirus 3 × 105.Each well in group RNAi was given the recombinant lentiviral vector containing PKCγ shRNA(LV-PKC7 shRNA).The expression of PKCT mRNA and protein in rat neurons was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot 5 days later.The interference efficiency was ealculated.Results Compared with group NC,the expression of PKCγ mRNA and protein was down-regulatedin group RNAi(P<0.05),but no significant change Was found in group NC(P>0.05).The interference efficiency of gene and protein were 99.3%and 85.2%respectively.Conclusion Lentivirus-mediated RNAi can down restate the expression of PKC7 gene and protein in rat neurons.

Objective To explore the effect of heat shock protein 70(HSP70)expression in the role of Curcumin inhibited staurosporine(STS)-mediated neurons toxic injury.Methods The primary cultured hippocampal neurons was cultured in vitro and the stress damage model of STS-induced nerve cell toxicity was established.The experiment were divided into six groups according to the added drugs:normal control group,the STS model group (final concentration was 20μmol/L),Quercetin+STS model group(final concentration were 10 μmol/L and 20 μmol/L,respectively),Curcumin+STS pretreatment group(for 20μmol/L final concentration),Curcumin+Quercetin+STS treatment group(final concentration were 20μmol/L,10μmol/L and 20μmol/L,respectively)and Curcumin treatment group(final concentration was 20μmol/L).The cell viability were determined by thiazole blue (MTT)method,cell toxicity were measured by lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)release rate and HPS70 expression were detected by Western Blot. Results MTT results showed that the cell viability of Curcumin+STS pretreatment group was significantly higher than STS model group(P<0.001).Compared with Quercetin+STS model group,the cell viability of Curcumin+Quercetin+STS treatment group had little change.LDH results show that the nerve cell toxicity of Curcumin+STS pretreatment group was obviously less than that of STS model group(P<0.001).Western Blot results show that compared with STS model group,HSP70 protein expression in Curcumin+STS pretreatment group was significantly increased(P<0.001).Conclusion Curcumin can inhibit STS-mediated neurons toxicity stress damage though increasing HSP70 expression,when added Quercetin to block HSP70 expression in nerve cells,the inhibiting effect of Curcumin on STS-mediated neuron toxic stress injury is counteract.

Objective :
To explore the mediating effect of sleep quality on mobile phone dependence and loneliness in university students, so as to provide evidence for prevention and intervention of mobile phone dependence.
Methods :
A survey was conducted from December 2019 and January 2020 among the students of Guangzhou Medical University. The general information questionnaire, mobile phone dependence index scale, UCLA loneliness scale and Pittsburgh sleep quality index scale were used to analyze the mediating effects of sleep quality on mobile phone dependence and loneliness.
Results :
A total of 575 questionnaires were distributed and 573 valid ones were collected, with an efficiency of 99.65%. The detection rate of 115 students with mobile phone dependence was 20.07%, and that of 203 students with sleep quality problems was 35.43%. The students scored ( 48.03±6.07 ) points in loneliness, and 405 of them had high level. Mobile phone dependence was positively correlated with loneliness and sleep quality ( r=0.299, 0.385, both P<0.05 ); loneliness was positively correlated with sleep quality ( r=0.553, P<0.05 ). Mobile phone dependence and sleep quality both could positively predict loneliness, mobile phone dependence could positively predict sleep quality, and sleep quality and gender had a significant interaction effect on loneliness ( all P<0.05 ). The mediating effect value of sleep quality on mobile phone dependence and loneliness was 0.290 ( 95%CI: 0.186-0.400 ) in males and 0.131 ( 95%CI: 0.084-0.187 ) in females.
Conclusion
Sleep quality has a mediating effect on mobile phone dependence and loneliness among university students. Male students are susceptible to the negative effects of mobile phone dependence.
