1.Stem cell therapy for ischemic heart disease
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2016;20(6):906-912
BACKGROUND:Stem cel transplantation is a promising strategy for treatment of ischemic heart diseases, which has obtained great achievements in recent years. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical trends of stem cel therapy for ischemic heart diseases reported from 2001 to 2015 in Medline, CNKI, Wanfang, ClinicalTrials.gov and Chinese Clinical Trial Register. METHODS:The relevant articles addressing stem cel therapy for ischemic heart diseases were retrieved using the keywords of “stem cel transplantation” and “ischemic heart disease” in Chinese and English in Medline, CNKI, Wanfang, ClinicalTrials.gov and Chinese Clinical Trial Register folowed by statistical analysis. The retrieval time was from 2001 to 2015, including 2001-2005, 2006-2010 and 2011-2015. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In Medline database, there were 219 clinical studies about stem cel therapy for ischemic heart disease published from 2001 to 2015, and the number of retrieved articles was most from 2006 to 2010, and decreased from 2011 to 2015. In CNKI and Wanfang databases, the number of relevant articles which had a similar trend with that in the Medline database decreased remarkably after 2011. In ClinicalTrials.gov, there were 63 clinical trials about stem cel therapy for ischemic heart disease, most of which were registered from 2006 to 2015 and came from Europe and North America. In Chinese Clinical Trial Register, there was no clinical trial about stem cel therapy for ischemic heart disease, which may result from the strict management in China.

Objective:To investigate the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) in papillary thyroid carcinoma and their relationship to cervical lymph metastases.Method:In this study, the expressions of COX-2 and VEGF-C were examined by immunohistochemistry in papillary thyroid carcinoma tissues of 40 patients, and analysis was performed on the correlation of cervical lymph metastases with COX-2 and VEGF-C expression.Result:Positive expressions of COX-2 and VEGF-C were 70.0%(28/40)and 75.0%(30/40)respectively in papillary thyroid carcinoma. The positive rates of COX-2 and VEGF-C expression were 80.8%(21/26)and 84.6%(22/26)respectively in patients with cervical lymph metastases, and 50.0%(7/14)and 57.1%(8/14)respectively in patients without cervical lymph metastases, with a statistically significant difference between two groups(P<0.05, all). COX-2 was positively correlated to VEGF-C expression in papillary thyroid carcinoma(r=0.378, P<0.05).Conclusion:The results suggest that COX-2 and VEGF-C were highly expressed in papillary thyroid carcinoma, with possible interaction of their expressions, and may play a critical role in the cervical lymph metastases of papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Objective To assess the characteristics of heart rate turbulencer (HRT) in elderly patients with decreased left ventricular diastolie function.Methods 40 patients were divided into two groups:20 patients with enlarged left atrium and 20 patients without enlarged left atrium.20 healthy people were selected as controls. Turbu1ence onset (TO) and turbulence slope (TS) were measured,and correlation was analyzed between TO,TS and the E/A,index of Macruz and heart rate variability (HRV).Results TO was higher (P<0.05) and TS was lower in patients (P<0.01),TO was higber in patients with enlarged left atrium than in with out enlarged lef atrium people (P<0.05) and TS was lower (P<0.01).TO was positively (P<0.01) and TS Was negatively (P<0.05),correlated with the index of Macruz.TO Was negatively (P<0.05) and TS was positively (P<0.05) related to SDNN and SDANN.Conclusion HRT can be used as a potential risk predictor in decreased left ventricular diastolic function patients.

The degradation kinetics of chlorogenic acid (5-CQA), cryptochlorogenic acid (4-CQA), and neochlorogenic acid (3-CQA) in aqueous solution at 37 degrees C and different pH values (7.05, 7.96, 9.25) were investigated in the present work. The results indicated that 3-, 4- and 5-CQA tended to remain stable in acidic pH circumstance, and unstable in neutral and alkaline pH circumstance. With the increase of the alkalinity, the degradation of 3-, 4- and 5-CQA was increased leading to a less amount of total CQA and was satisfactorily described by the Weibull equation. Meanwhile, caffeic acid was not detected after the degradation of CQA. Moreover, the degradation of 3-CQA and 5-CQA tended to be converted to 4-CQA, and the degradation of 4-CQA tended to be converted to 3-CQA rather than 5-CQA. The comparison of the degradation kinetics parameters of 3-, 4- and 5-CQA at neutral and alkaline pH values showed that the orders of the rate constant (k) values were 4-CQA > 3-CQA > 5-CQA, while the orders of the degradation half life (t½) values were 4-CQA < 3-CQA < 5-CQA, indicating the orders of the stabilities of 3-, 4- and 5-CQA at 37 degrees C and neutral and alkaline pH values were 4-CQA < 3-CQA < 5-CQA.

Objective To understand the working pressure source of obstetric nurses in Kunming through a sample survey study, so as to provide a reference for obstetric nurses to adjust self-psychology and for clinical managers to relieve working pressure on obstetric nurses. Methods We gave a sampling survey on 249 obstetric nurses in provincial,municipal and private hospitals,and usedChinese nurse job stress scaleto collect the data for statistical analysis. Results Kunming obstetric nurses' working pressure mainly came from the workload and time allocation. The ten stressors with highest score of pressure were frequent highest score, too much work, low welfare benefits,too much useless paperwork, low social status,worry about mistakes at work, too high expectation of patients,too much non-nursing work, nursing work is not accepted by patients and their families, few nurses to work. Age,title and nature of the preparation had no effect on work stress. Public hospital nurses' working pressure was significantly greater than private hospitals. Conclusion Working pressure sources of obstetric nureses in Kuming are too much night shift,too much work,welfare berfits useless paperwork,social status,mistakes at work, patients expectation work is not accopted and staffing Hospital management and nuusing managers should doploy rationally human resoures on obstteic area,reasorabal scheduling.

Preventing and curing emergency infectious diseases,such as A H1N1 influenza,is a public health practice,and its relevant ethical problems are pubic health ethical problems,mainly manifesting as the conflicts between individual interests and public interests,individual freedom and quarantine,individual privacy right and releasing partial medical information,and choosing one's own doctors and compulsory treatment.The core of the issue is that individual interests should be submitted to the public interests,and at the same time government and society should respect individual's freedom,privacy and right of health.
