In order to study the inherent difference among terpenes producing yeasts from the point of metabolomics, we selected taxadiene producing yeasts as the model system. The changes of cellular metabolites during fermentation log phase of artificial functional yeasts were determined using metabolomics methods. The results represented that compared to W303-1A as a blank control, the metabolites in glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) cycle and several amino acids were influenced. And due to the changes of metabolites, the growth of cells was inhibited to a certain extent. Among the metabolites identified, citric acid content in taxadiene producing yeasts changed the most, the decreasing amplitude reached 90% or more. Therefore, citric acid can be a marker metabolite for the future study of artificial functional yeasts. The metabolomics analysis of taxadiene producing yeasts can provide more information in further studies on optimization of terpenes production in heterologous chassis.

Doctor-patient trust plays an important role in doctor-patient knowledge transfer.Investigating the basic features and trust performance of the patients, the authors classified by means of a cluster analysis, the patients into four groups with such criteria as the trust on hospital, trust on doctors, patient's awareness of the knowledge, and patient's compliance to the doctor's advice. The four groups are rational and suspicious, passive compliance, high self-confidence, and blind trust groups. In view of behavioral characteristics of the patients, different doctor-patient knowledge transfer strategies are suggested, in an effort to perform effective doctor-patient communication and to gain patient's trust.

Objective To investigate the influence of peer education on maintenance knowledge of patients with peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) outside the hospital.Methods 74 patients with PICC were divided into the intervention group and the control group with 37 patients in each group according to the random digit table,the intervention group received peer education and the conventional health education,while the control group only received routine health education.The maintenance knowledge of PICC was investigated with questionnaires and the results were analyzed.Results xfter intervention,the maintenance knowledge of the intervention group was significantly higher than that of the control group [(36.95±2.84) scores vs.(31.78 ± 4.79) scores,t=5.639,P＜0.05].The incidence rate of complications in the intervention group was lower than that of the control group [21.6％ (8/37) vs.62.2％(23/37),x2=12.491,P＜0.01].Conclusions The peer education can improve patients' maintenance knowledge about PICC and reduce the occurrence rate of the complications of PICC.

AIM To study the antitumor activity of astragalosides(AST) and its mechanism of action. METHODS By using two experimental models of hepatoma(HepA) and Sarcoma 180 in mice, the rate of inhibition of tumor weight AST on the growth of HepA and S180 tumor cells were tested. The growth inhibition of AST on Hela cells was detected by MTT assay. The effect of AST on cell cycle and apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry and TUNEL. RESULTS AST inhibited the growth of tumor cells of HepA and S180 in mice. AST inhibited the growth of Hela cell in concentration dependent manner with IC 50 of 80 4 mg?L -1 . Flow cytomety analgsis showed that G 0/G 1 phase rate was increased but S phase rate was decreased. The apoptosis rate of Hela cells treated with AST( 80 and 160 mg?L -1 ) was significantly higher than that of control. CONCLUSION AST can inhibit the growth of tumor cells of HepA and S180 in mice and the growth of HeLa cells in vitro . Causing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis is probably one of the mechanisms of antitumor effect by AST.

Objective To investigate the effects of different dialysates on expression of protein kinase C-δ (PKCδ) and apoptosis of U937 cell line. Methods Different dialysates were added into culture fluid with U937 cell line at exponential phase of growth, and groups were divided: fluid A+fluid B group (dialysate A+dialysate B), fluid A+fluid B+rottlerin (PKCδ specific inhibitor)group, fluid A+powder B group (dialysate A+powder B) and fluid A+powder B + rottlerin group. Besides, blank control group and normal control group were established. Cells were harvested 24 h and 48 h after treatment, morphological changes were observed by Hoechst33258 fluorescence staining, cell apoptosis was measured by Annexin-V-FITC/PI double staining, and expression of PKCδ mRNA and protein was detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. Results Cell apoptosis significantly increased in fluid A+powder B group, with typical morphology of apoptosis. After treatment for 24 h and 48 h, cell apoptosis rates in fluid A+powder B group were significantly higher than those at corresponding time points in blank control group , normal control group and fluid A+powder B+rottlerin group (P<0.05). Compared with normal control group, blank control group and fluid A+powder B+rottlerin group, the expression of PKCδ mRNA and protein of U937 cells in fluid A+powder B group were significantly increased (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in cell apoptosis rates and expression of PKCδ mRNA and protein between fluid A+fluid B group and blank control group, normal control group and fluid A+fluid B+rottlerin group (P＞0.05). Conclusion Fluid A+powder B can significantly increase apoptosis of U937 cell line, the mechanism of which may be associated with the up-regulation of expression of PKCδ. Compared with fluid A+powder B, fluid A+fluid B is superior in reducing apoptosis of peripheral blood monouclear cells.

Objective:To compare the value of difference between thromboelastogram (TEG), coagulation function and mean platelet volume (MPV)/platelet count (PLT) ratio in sepsis patients with short-term prognosis.Methods:A total of 271 patients with sepsis admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2020 to September 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical data of the patients were recorded, and the SOFA score and APACHE Ⅱ score were calculated. The patients were followed up within 28 days and were divided into the survival group and death group. The TEG, coagulation function and MPV/PLT ratio were compared between the two groups. The independent prognostic factors of Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio were confirmed by Logistic regression analysis. The combination of Angle + CI + AT-Ⅲ + D-Di +MPV/PLT ratio was established, and the ROC curve was drawn to evaluate the prognostic value of Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ and D-Di combined with MPV/PLT ratio in patients with sepsis.Results:The mortality rate of patients with sepsis was 42.4%. The D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio of the death group were significantly higher than those of the survival group, and the differences were statistically significant. Angle, CI and AT-III in the death group were significantly lower than those in the survival group, and the differences were statistically significant. Logistic regression analysis showed that Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio were independent predictors of the prognosis of patients with sepsis (all P < 0.05) . The area under the curve of the combined detection of Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-DI and MPV/PLT ratio to evaluate the prognosis of sepsis at 28 days was 0.931, which was larger than that of Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio alone (0.755, 0.790, 0.776, 0.729 and 0.746). The sensitivity and specificity of the combination of Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio were 83.5% and 91.0%, which were also higher than those of the single index . Conclusions:Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio are independent prognostic predictors of patients with sepsis. The combination of Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio has high sensitivity and specificity in evaluating the prognosis of sepsis.

Objective To explore heterogeneous subtypes of psychological and behavioral adaptation characteristics of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation and the characteristics differences of different types of children after liver transplantation. Methods Seven hundred and forty-one children who underwent living-related liver transplantation were enrolled. The self-designed general information questionnaire, Chinese version of 5-Item World Health Organization Well-Being Index (WHO-5) and the parent-report version of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) were filled out by their guardians. The scores of five dimensions of SDQ were used as the manifest variables of the model. The classification model of psychological and behavioral adaptation characteristics of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation was constructed by latent profile analysis. The latent categories of psychological and behavioral adaptation characteristics of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation were analyzed. The influencing factors of latent categories were analyzed by univariate analysis and logistic regression model. Results There were three latent categories of psychological and behavioral adaptation characteristics of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation, including peer communication problem group (n=302), psychological and behavioral adaptation group (n=145) and psychological and behavioral adjustment difficulty group (n=294). The first two groups were merged into the psychological and behavioral health group (n=447), which had significant differences in the five dimensions and the total score of difficulties of SDQ compared with the psychological and behavioral adjustment difficulty group (n=294) (all P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that age≤5 years old, primary disease of non-cholestatic liver disease, stem family were the risk factors for psychological and behavioral adjustment difficulties in pediatric recipients after liver transplantation. Female gender, high education levels of parents and high WHO-5 score of guardians were the protective factors for psychological and behavioral adjustment difficulties in pediatric recipients after liver transplantation (all P<0.05). Conclusions The psychological and behavioral adaptation characteristics of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation are heterogeneous. Medical staff should pay extensive attention to different characteristics of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation with different psychological and behavioral adaptation categories and adopt targeted screening and intervention strategies, aiming to improve psychological and behavioral adaptation outcomes of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation.
