Objective: To explore influence of nursing health education on morning blood pressure surge (MBPS) fluctuations in aged patients with hypertension.Methods: A total of 100 outpatients and inpatients with non-dipper hypertension, who haven't been treated, were selected from Apr 2011 to Sep 2015.According to random number table method, patients were randomly and equally divided into routine treatment group and health education group (received nursing health education based on routine treatment group), both groups were treated for four weeks.MBPS, trough/peak(T/P) ratio and smoothness index (SI) were measured and compared between two groups after treatment.Results: Compared with routine treatment group after four-week treatment, there were significant reductions in systolic blood pressure (SBP) morning surge[(46.95±5.17) mmHg vs.(42.21±5.19) mmHg]and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) morning surge[(16.31±3.23) mmHg vs.(14.21±3.58) mmHg], and significant rise in SBP T/P[(59.22±6.65)% vs.(70.11±6.41)%], DBP T/P[(50.91±5.04)% vs.(56.97±5.12)%], SBP SI[(1.19±0.13) vs.(1.42±0.12)]and DBP SI[(1.11±0.09) vs.(1.29±0.08)]in health education group, P<0.05 all.Conclusion: Health education can effectively improve blood pressure fluctuations and may likely improve prognosis in patients with non-dipper hypertension, which is worth extending.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation after microwave ablation (MWA) and its prevention.Methods 72 patients who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled into the study.30 patients were in the control group and 42 patients in the prophylactic antivirus group.Results 8.3％ (6/72) patients developed HBV reactivation.A high HBV DNA load and no prophylactic antivirus therapy were independent risk factors of viral reactivation.Conclusion Prophylactic antivirus therapy can prevent HBV reactivation.

Plants in Ainsliaea genus, belongs to Compositae family, are traditional Chinese medicine and widely used in folk. These plants contain various types of chemical components, and main components are sesquiterpene lactone and its glycosides. In addition, there are triterpenoids, flavonoids, steroids, phenolic acid, long chain fatty acid and volatile oils. Recently, much attention has been payed to varlous research of A. fragrans. This paper reviewed and summarized the chemical components to provide the theoretical basis for the use of Ainsliaea.

OBJECTIVETo study the therapeutic effects of posterolateral depression fractures of the tibial plateau through a modified anterolateral approach.

METHODSFrom February 2011 to January 2012,13 patients with posterolateral depression fractures of the tibial plateau were treated through a modified anterolateral approach. There were 8 males and 5 females, ranging in age from 28 to 59 years old (49.2 years old on average). Data from patients were collected retrospectively as follows: X-ray, time of fracture healing and the complications of fracture healing. The patients were evaluated both clinically and radiologically according to the Rasmussen score system.

RESULTSAll the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 6 to 18 months (mean 13.7 months). All the patients got bony union. The average radiographic bony union time was 15.1 weeks (ranged, 11 to 17 weeks). No case of secondary articular depression was found. No complications such as malunion or joint stiffness were found. But 1 patient had superficial infection and 1 patient had common peroneal nerve injury. According to the Rasmussen score system,the mean radiological score was 16.50 ± 0.67 (ranged, 13 to 18), and the mean functional score was 25.20 ± 2.21 (ranged, 13 to 30). The mean range of knee motion was (125.3 ± 9.3)° (ranged, 0° to 135°).

CONCLUSIONTreatment of depression fractures of posterolateral tibial plateau with a modified anterolateral approach is a safe method with effective exposure, due to its stable fixation and relatively good outcome with minimal soft-tissue complications. It is regarded as an ideal procedure for depression fractures of posterolateral tibial plateau.

AIM: To evaluate the different conditions inducing mouse embryonic stem cells (ESC) in vitro to differentiate into cardiomyocytes. METHODS: BRL conditioned medium was used to promote the growth of ESC and maintain them in an undifferentiated state. During the inducing process, retinoic acid (RA), DMSO, activin-A and TGF-? 1 were used as inducing reagents, and made up six kinds of differentiating medium. Then a three-step method inducing ESC cultured in hanging drops, in suspension and in plating was used to induce the differentiation of ESC. RESULTS: ESC were induced in vitro to differentiate into cardiomyocytes. Of all groups, the highest differentiating rate was observed in the group induced by activin-A (20 ?g/L) and TGF-? 1 (2 ?g/L). CONCLUSION: The inducing conditions including activin-A (20 ?g/L) and TGF-? 1 (2 ?g/L) is very valuable in inducing ESC differentiation into cardiomyocytes. [

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of histone deacetylase inhibitor suberic bishydroxamate (SBHA) on human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell lines.

METHODSAML U937, KG-1 and Kasumi-1 cells were treated with SBHA. Cell growth was measured by MTT assay. Apoptosis was determined using flow cytometry. Activation of Caspase pathway and expression of apoptosis regulator proteins were detected by Western blot.

RESULTSSBHA significantly induced growth arrest and apoptosis in U937, KG-1 and Kasumi-1 cells. Enhanced apoptosis was observed in SHBA group evidenced by strong activation of Caspase-9, Caspase-8 and Caspase-3. SHBA treatment resulted in down-regulation of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and Bcl-xl expression; down-regulated expression of antiapoptotic proteins survivin, XIAP and cIAP was also detected after SBHA treatment.

CONCLUSIONSBHA can effectively kill AML cells by inhibiting cell growth and inducing apoptosis, which is associated with the activation of Caspase pathway and regulation of apoptotic related proteins.

Objective To analyze pharmacologic action features of single Chinese herbal medicine for the treatment of fatty liver based on literature; To provide references for clinical treatment of fatty liver.Methods Animal research literature about single Chinese herbal medicine for the treatment of fatty liver in CNKI, Wanfang database, and VIP from January 2003 to December 2014 was retrieved by computers. The number of single Chinese herbal medicine and the pharmacologic action features of active ingredients (or extracts) were statistically concluded. Results A total of 279 articles were retrieved, including 67 kinds of single Chinese herbal medicine, among which 8 were used to treat AFLD, 45 were used to treat NAFLD, and 14 were used to treat AFLD and NAFLD simultaneously. Pharmacologic action features of the medicine for AFLD mainly included reducing lipid, protecting liver, antioxidation, and anti-inflammation. Pharmacologic action features of the medicine for NAFLD had the effects of improving insulin resistance additionally.Conclusion Chinese herbal medicine for the treatment of AFLD and NAFLD shows significant efficacy, having the features of multiple pathways and liver damage resistance, which provide references for clinical treatment of fatty liver.

Methods:The infection status of PA from January 2012 to December 2012 was reviewed retro-spectively, and the results of susceptibility test for 448 PA strains were analyzed. Results:The antibiotic susceptibility of the PA strains to cefoperazone sodium and sulbac, ampicillin aodium and aulbacta,aiprofloxacin,cefepime,piperacillin/ sulbactam,amikacin, ceftazi-dime,meropenem, imipenem, minocycline, selectrin and aefuroxime was 100%, 76%, 72. 8%, 69. 4%, 66. 3%, 65. 6%, 64. 8%, 59. 9%,28. 9%,2. 4% and 0%,respectively. Conclusion:PA is one of the main pathogenic bacteria for nosocomial infection. It is necessary to strengthen the drug resistance test and standardize the application of antibiotics in order to provide the reference for clinical rational use of antibacterial drugs.
