Objective To construct and identify the RNAi eukaryotic vector of Skp2 gene and to observe its interfering effect on the growth of SPC-A-1 lung cancer cells.Methods The specific shRNA sequence was designed and synthesized according to the Skp2 cDNA sequence in GenBank.The sequence was cloned into plasmid pGenesil-1.Then recombinant vector was transfected into SPC-A-1 lung cancer cells by Lipofectamine 2000.The expressions of Skp2 mRNA were analyzed by RT-PCR and the levels of Skp2 protein were detected by Western blot.The cell growth suppression was analyzed by MTT assay.Distribution of cell cycle was assessed by flow cytometry.Results The sequence of template and specific siRNA was correct by sequence analysis.Obvious decrease was observed in the levels of Skp2 mRNA and Skp2 protein after Skp2 shRNA transfection(P

Objective To establish an accurate method for determining the content of three components in Fufang Buwu Syrup. Methods TLC scanner was selected to detect three components with silica gel G thin layer plate. The sample was separated by using cyclohexane-ethyl acetate-methylenechloride-formic acid (3∶1∶1∶0.2),λS=300 nm. Results The linearity between peak area and ferulic acid was achieved in the range of 0.36-0.84μg, psoralen was achieved in the range of 0.12-0.28 μg, emodin was achieved in the range of 0.01-0.05 μg. The average recovery was 100.7%, 100.8%, 101.0%, and RSD was 1.26%, 1.44%, 1.86%, respectively. Conclusion The method is simple and accurate, which can be used for quality control of Fufang Buwu Syrup.

Objective To summarize the measures for nursing mechanical ventilated patients who suffered from respiratory failure caused by acute severe organophosphorus pesticide poisoning (ASOPP). Method Retrospectively, the nursing clinical data of 18 mechanically ventilated patients who suffered from ASOPP-induced respiratory failure in ICU from January 2013 to December 2014 were analyzed for summarizing the nursing measures concerning preventive extubation, airway humidification and sputum sucking, prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia and final extubation. Result Sixteen ASOPP patients successfully recovered after hospital discharge and another two died from multiple organ function failure because of excessive pesticides. Conclusions Effective observation and nursing care of airways based on their characteristics in ASOPP patients including prevention of unexpected shedding , appropriate humidity of airways and prevention of infection of ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP). All of these measures can reduce complications and contribute to the early recovery of patients.

Alcoholic liver disease ( ALD ) , a chronic progres-sive disease, threatens human health seriously. An increasing number of studies have shown that gut flora dysbiosis plays an important role in the development of ALD. Intestinal microbiota maintains a steady state under normal conditions, regulating gut flora normal physiological function. However, chronic alcohol consumption produces intestinal bacteria overgrowth and dysbio-sis, including the alteration of the composition of intestinal mi-croflora, the increment of gut permeability and bacterial translo-cation. Subsequently, the host immune is activated, promoting the production of inflammatory cytokines in liver, which plays a central role in the development of ALD. Notably, the supple-ment of prebiotics or probiotics reverses the intestinal flora disor-der,ameliorating the clinical symptoms effectively in ALD pa-tients. The evidence impies that the modulation of dysbiosis may be effective in the prevention and treatment of ALD. This review summarizes the research progress on the mechanism of the devel-opment of dysbiosis-mediated ALD, to provide a theoretical basis for the research on intestinal flora and ALD.

OBJECTIVE:To improve the writing quality prescriptions of traditional Chinese medicines and to facilitate the standardization of traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions.METHODS:A total of 15 000 prescriptions were sampled in our hospital in 2006 for an analysis of the problems in accordance with the related standards specified in Chinese Pharmacopoeia(CP,2005 edition)and the new "Prescription management method".RESULTS:The problems manifested as nonstandard in drug name and footnotes,or overdosage and so on.CONCLUSION:We should strengthen the management of the traditional Chinese drugs and improve our pharmaceutical care.

OBJECTIVETo explore various factors affecting the clinical pregnancy outcomes of artificial insemination with donor sperm (AID).

METHODSWe retrospectively analyzed 15,744 cycles of AID in 6302 women and investigated the association of the clinical pregnancy outcomes of AID with the treatment protocols, the times of insemination per cycle, the age of the infertile women, the status of the oviduct, and the number of AID cycles.

RESULTSThe pregnancy rate of AID was higher in the chlomiphene-treated women than in those of the natural cycle group (P = 0.003) but showed no significant differences either between the chloramiphene and human menopause gonadotropin (HMG) or between the HMG and natural cycle groups (P > 0.05), and so was it in the women that had received AID twice per cycle before and after ovulation (26.3%) than in those that had undergone only once before (7.0%) or after ovulation (23.7%) (P < 0.05). However, the pregnancy rate was remarkably lower in the women aged 35-40 years (16.5%), especially in those over 40 years (1.2%), than in those under 35 years (26.0%) (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the success rate of AID between the women with oviductal adhesion and those without (27.4% vs. 28.1%, P > 0.05). The pregnancy rate of the first cycle of AID (27.6%) was markedly higher than those of the second (24.7%), third (23.9%), and fourth (23.1%) (P < 0.01), but with no significant differences among the latter three cycles (P > 0.05), while that of the fifth cycle (19.0%) was remarkably lower than those of the first four (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONThe age of the infertile women is an important factor affecting the success rate of AID. AID twice per cycle is better than once only. For those without oviductal factors, at least 4 cycles of AID are required before in vitro fertilization.
