A Ni-based rare-earth perovskite LaNiTiO3 nanoparticles was synthesized and its catalytic activity was investigated. Based on this, a simple and quick nonenzyme electrochemical sensor was fabricated with stable and reliable performances for the determination of hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ). The techniques of X-ray diffraction, FT-IR spectra, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray fluorescene spectroscopy and scan electronmicroscope were used to characterize the composition, structure and morphology of as-synthesized sample. The sensor based on this nanomaterial was investigated and optimized by cyclic voltammetry and current-time techniques. The results showed the working electrode modified with LaNiTiO3 (0. 5 g / L, 8. 0μL) in 0. 1 mol/ L NaOH exhibited good catalytic properties for H2 O2 . Under the optimum conditions, the sensor performed excellent properties, such as quick response time ( about 2 s ), a wide linearity (0. 2 μmol/ L -8. 0 mmol/ L), a low detection limit of 0. 05 μmol/ L ( S / N = 3 ), a high sensitivity of 957 μA (mmol/ L) -1 cm-2 , good reproducibility and anti-interference ability, which was better than those of some other biosensors reported recently. So, it may be used for the analysis and detection of H2 O2 in practical samples such as biomedicine.

Radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) is a common complication after radiotherapy for lung cancer and alternative thoracic malignant tumors, while ferroptosis is a regulated cell death triggered by iron-dependent membrane lipid peroxidation. In this article, the relationship between RILI and ferroptosis was investigated from oxidative damage induced by reactive oxygen species, antioxidant network and iron homeostasis regulated by nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2) as well as transforming growth factor involved in the inflammatory response, aiming to mitigate or inhibit the occurrence of RILI through regulating ferroptosis, thereby improving clinical prognosis of patients undergoing radiotherapy.

Objective:To explore the related factors of postoperative adjuvant therapy for cervical cancer stagedⅠB1-ⅡA2 [according to 2018 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging standard], and to establish a nomogram model to predict the risk of postoperative adjuvant therapy for locally advanced cervical cancer.Methods:A total of 714 patients with cervical squamous cell cancer staged FIGO ⅠB1-ⅡA2 treated by surgery in Anhui Provincial Hospital were selected as the research objects from January 2009 to December 2019, and their clinicopathological data were analyzed. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to determine the influencing factors, and a nomogram model was established to predict the risk of postoperative adjuvant treatment of cervical cancer. The predictive performance of the model was evaluated with the consistency index (C-index), and the compliance of the model was evaluated with the calibration curve.Results:Univariate analysis suggested that postoperative adjuvant therapy for cervical cancer was associated with gravidity ( χ2=11.506, P=0.001), underlying disease (hypertension or diabetes) ( χ2=7.668, P=0.006), squamous cell cancer antigen (SCC-AG) level ( χ2=19.392, P<0.001), imaging risk factors ( χ2=16.392, P<0.001), FIGO stage ( χ2=25.686, P<0.001), tumor size ( χ2=9.392, P=0.025) and surgical path ( χ2=16.590, P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that the number of pregnancy >2 times ( OR=1.951, 95% CI: 1.355-2.808, P<0.001), SCC-Ag ≥1.5 μg/L ( OR=2.021, 95% CI: 1.444-2.829, P<0.001), FIGO stage ⅠB3-ⅡA2 [ⅠB3 ( OR=1.933, 95% CI: 1.139-3.282, P=0.015); ⅡA1 ( OR=2.723, 95% CI: 1.556-4.765, P<0.001); ⅡA2 ( OR=3.159, 95% CI: 1.502-6.646, P=0.002)], with underlying disease (hypertension or diabetes) ( OR=1.867, 95% CI: 1.051-3.318, P=0.033), imaging risk factors ( OR=1.997, 95% CI: 1.127-3.537, P=0.018), without neoadjuvant therapy [preoperative neoadjuvant therapy for 1 cycle ( OR=0.402, 95% CI: 0.207-0.783, P=0.007)] and laparoscopic surgery ( OR=2.177, 95% CI: 1.524-3.112, P<0.001) were independent influencing factors for postoperative adjuvant treatment of cervical cancer. Based on the screened variables, the nomogram model to predict the risk of postoperative adjuvant treatment for cervical cancer has good predictive performance (C-index was 0.702) and compliance. Conclusion:The number of pregnancy >2 times, SCC-Ag ≥1.5 μg/L, FIGO stage ⅠB3-ⅡA2, with underlying disease (hypertension or diabetes), imaging risk factors, without neoadjuvant therapy, and laparoscopic surgery are independent influencing factors for postoperative adjuvant treatment of cervical cancer. A nomogram model has been constructed to predict the risk of postoperative adjuvant therapy for locally advanced cerrical cancer, and it can provide evidence for clinical treatment selection.

Objective To investigate the relationship between atherosclerosis and cardiovascular risk factors in the elderly,thus to provide new method for detection of atherosclerosis in the elderly.Methods From November 2010 to October 2011,348 elderly who addmitted to or had physical examination in our hospital were recruited in the study.All participants were interviewed through questionnaire,and medical history was recorded,Brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) was measured.Simultaneously,height,body weight,waist circumferrence,triglyceride ( TG ),total cholesterol ( TC ),high density lipoprotein-cholesterol ( HDL-C ),low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C) were measured.The association between baPWV and cardiovascular and atherosclerosis was investigated.Results The incidence of higher baPWV was increasing as the number of risk factors of cardio vascular disease adding.Logistic regression analysis show that:Age ( OR =5.223,95％ CI 3.606 -7.564),LDL-C( OR =4.554,95％ CI 2.413 - 8.593 ),Smoking ( OR =6.007,95％ CI 3.775 - 9.560),Obesity( OR =3.019,95 ％ CI 2.363 - 3.857 ),Hypertension ( OR =6.938,95％ CI 3.591 - 13.404 ),High-salt diet( OR =2.555,95％ CI 2.108 -3.096)were independent risk factors of baPWV increase (P ＜0.05); Exercise and good sleep were the protective factors for baPWV increasing.BaPWV levels were significantly lower in the exercise group (exercise time ＞ 1 h/d)than in the few exercise group (exercise time ＜ 1h/d) (t =2.719,P =0.012 ),and lower in good sleep group participants than in insomnia participants (t =2.561,P =0.017 ) (P ＜ 0.05 ).BaPWV levels were significantly higherin the group with essential hypertension ( 1852.0 ± 46.7 cm/s),with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus ( 1693.0 ± 38.2 cm/s),with coronary heart disease ( 1729.0 ± 40.4 cm/s) than in the healthy group ( 1356.0 ± 3 1.3 cm/s) ( P ＜ 0.05 ).There was no statistical difference between the essential hypertension group and the hypertension complicated with cerebral infarction group,as well as between the coronary heart disease group and the myocardial infarction group.Conclusion Age,LDL-C increasing,smoking,obesity,hypertension and high-salt diet were independent risk factors of baPWV increase;Exercise and good sleep were protective factors.BaPWV could be one of the methods for early detection of atherosclerosis.

BACKGROUND:With the development and improvement of liver transplantation technology, patients waiting for or undergoing liver transplantation have continued to increase in number. Due to their fears and concerns about post-transplantation rehabilitation, patients are under physical and mental stress, most of whom are shown to have a variety of mental disorders that affect rehabilitation. At present, mental problems of liver transplant patients are more concentrated in post-transplantation research, while patients waiting for liver transplantation do not get enough mental assessment and intervention.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the suitable mode of cognitive-behavioral therapy for liver transplant recipients waiting for donor liver and to evaluate the effect to improve patient’s physical and mental state.
METHODS:Twelve liver transplant patients who underwent pre-transplantation assessment were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, each group with six cases. The control group received conventional treatment. The experimental group received cognitive-behavioral therapy in addition to conventional treatment. Self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and vital signs were measured in the two groups on admission, 1 week and 3 weeks after admission.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The SAS score of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group at 1 and 3 weeks after admission, and SAS score decreased as the intervention extended. The systolic blood pressure of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group at 3 weeks after admission, but there was no significant difference in diastolic blood pressure between two groups. The heart rate of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group at 1 and 3 weeks after admission. The respiratory rate of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group at 3 weeks after admission. Cognitive-behavioral therapy can reduce the level of anxiety and keep vital signs stable with good feasibility and effectiveness in patients waiting for liver transplantation.

OBJECTIVE:To better carry out the pharmaceutical services in outpatient pharmacy,and provide reference for the safe,effective and rational drug use of outpatients. METHODS:Questionnaires were designed based on the related information pro-vided by consultation services of outpatient pharmacy in our hospital and referring to the related literatures to randomly select and investigate the patients of outpatient pharmacy in our hospital,and the results were statistically analyzed. RESULTS:There were to-tally 450 questionnaires,involving 417 valid questionnaires with the effective recovery of 92.67%. The questions about pharmaceuti-cal service of surveyed patients were dosage and precautions,respectively with the number of 254(60.91%)and 251(60.19%);followed by functions and indications,with the number of 234 (56.12%);besides,there were also with widespread concerns, such as drugs efficacy,medication time,and medication of elderly,children and pregnant women,etc. Among the surveyed pa-tients,20.75% were blind medication;89.45% thought the pharmacists’guidance was helpful for medication;there were still 21.35% without pharmacists’medication guidance. CONCLUSIONS:The survey shows the poor awareness of rational drug use and lacking knowledge of drugs in outpatients,they are eager for medication guidance from professional pharmacists. However,the pharmaceutical service in outpatient pharmacy needs to be improved. It is suggested to actively promote the pharmacy services by implementing points medication,adopting red and blue for warning labels,providing comprehensive drug counseling services and carrying out rational drug use education,etc.

OBJECTIVE To explore the safe and effective dose of sirolimus (Rapamycin,Sir) and its effect on seizure comorbidities. METHODS Immature C57BL/6 mice at postnatal 10 d of age were administered with kainic acid(KA) 12.0 mg · kg-1 intraperitoneally by a single injection to induce acute seizure. Sir 0.3, 1.0 and 3.0 mg · kg-1 was injected 24 h after seizure every other day until 3 d, 1 week, 3 weeks, 5 weeks and 6 weeks. Western blotting analysis was used to detect the expression and phos?phorylation level of S6 protein and to determine the minimum effective dose of Sir. Effect of the mini?mum effective dose of Sir on cognitive function and body growth was observed by several evaluations. Immunofluorescent intensity of Doublecortin (DCX) immunofluorescent staining was conducted to evaluate the development of neurons in the hippocampus. Morris water maze was used to assess the cognitive function. Tail suspension test, O maze and new object recognition test were used to study the anxiety-like behaviors of mice. RESULTS The result of Western blotting showed that Sir 0.3 mg · kg-1 had no significant effect on the phosphorylation of S6 protein in normal mice or KA mice, whereas 1.0 and 3.0 mg · kg- 1 could significantly inhibit the phosphorylation of S6 protein in KA mice (P<0.05). Sir 1.0 mg·kg-1 had no obvious effect on DCX-positive cells or body wass. Morris water maze showed that KA-induced seizure resulted in prolonged escape latency and swimming length (P<0.05), and a decreased crossing number of target quadrant (P<0.05). Sir 1.0 mg·kg-1 significantly reversed the deficit of cognitive function of KA-induced seizure mice (P<0.05), whereas no significant difference was found between Sir group and normal control group. Compared with normal control group, model group showed increased freezing time in tail suspension test (P<0.05), decreased migration length and reten?tion time in open arms in O maze (P<0.05), decreased retention time and touch frequency with new objects, migration length and average speed in new object recognition test (P<0.05). Sir 1.0 mg · kg-1 significantly reversed the above anxiety and depression status, whereas no significant difference was found between sirolimus group and normal control group. CONCLUSION Sir 1.0 mg · kg-1 inhibits the abnormal activation of mTOR pathway and the formation of epilepsy comorbidity in immature mice. Along with its mild side effect in development, Sir 1.0 mg · kg-1 will be an ideal dose to be used in the treatment of seizure in immature mice.
