Objective: To research the anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effects of Qifangbimin particle.Methods: The anti-inflammatory effects were observed by the methods of xylene-induced ear-swelling in mice and cotton-ball induced granuloma in rats.The anti-allergic effects were evaluated by the method of passive skin allergy model in rats and ear-heterogeneous passive skin allergy model in mice.Results: In the treatment groups with Qifangbimin particle, the swelling degree of ear edema induced by dimethylbenzene in mice was significantly suppressed when compared with that in the control groups (P<0.01 or 0.05) , however, the particle had no significantly inhibitory effect on granulation tissue hyperplasia induced by cotton-ball in rats.The Qifangbimin particle groups obviously decreased the absorbance value of locus coeruleus on rats' back (P<0.01 or 0.05), and Qifangbimin particle at high dose significantly reduced the absorbance value of locus coeruleus of auricle in mice (P<0.01 or 0.05).Conclusion: Qifangbimin particle has significant anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effects.

Objective To investigate the phenotypes and genotypes of extended -spectrum β-lacta-mases (ESBLs) and AmpC β-lactamases produced by cefoxitin-resistant Shigella strains isolated from Zhe-jiang province and the virulence of those strains .Methods Kirby-Bauer antibiotic testing was performed to screen cefoxitin-resistant strains from 356 Shigella isolates.The serotypes of the cefoxitin-resistant strains were detected .The phenotypes of ESBLs and AmpC β-lactamases from cefoxitin-resistant strains were detec-ted by ESBLs confirmatory test and AmpC-three-dimensional test ,respectively .The genotypes of ESBLs and AmpC β-lactamases were analyzed by PCR and sequence analysis .The virulence genes ( virA, ial, iapH, set1A, set1B and sen) in the cefoxitin-resistant strains were screened by PCR .Results Eight cefoxitin-re-sistant strains were identified from 356 Shigella isolates.Among them,six strains were identified as Shigella flexneri (S.fleaneri) strain (four F2a,one F2b and one F2c),and the rest were identified as Shigella sonnie (S.sonnei) strain.Among all eight cefoxitin-resistant strains,five strains showed positive results for ESBLs confirmatory test and two strains showed positive results for AmpC-three-dimensional test .Seven out of the eight strains harbor ESBLs genes (CTX-M-14,15,57 and/or OXA-30),two of which were positive for AmpC genes (DHA-1 and CMY-2).Five out of the eight cefoxitin-resistant strains carried all of the six tested viru-lence genes,while the other three strains possessed four virulence genes except for set1A and set1B.The two strains producing both ESBLs and AmpC β-lactamases were susceptible only to imipenem .Conclusion ESBLs positive isolates are prevalent strains of cefoxitin-resistant Shigella with potential high virulence .Some of them also produce AmpC β-lactamases ,and the DHA-1 type of AmpCβ-lactamase is identified for the first time in China .

A survey on professional knowledge levels was conducted from April to October 2019 among 388 general practitioners (GPs) from 46 community health service centers and 30 township health centers of 6 provinces selected by stratified random sampling method. The overall knowledge test score was 31.82—84.09(56.94±9.19) points, and the pass rate was 36.3% (141/388). There were significant differences in test scores among participants with different types of work units, regions, provinces, marital status, educational background, professional titles, types of employment, length of service, and training status (all P<0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that educational background ( B=-2.835), professional title ( B=-8.867), and participation in professional course training ( B=2.214) were the influencing factors of knowledge level (all P<0.05). The pass rates in knowledge of prevention/health management (13.7%, 53/388) and policies and regulations (12.1%, 47/388) were low. The results show that the levels of professional knowledge among GPs working in grassroots health institutions are relatively low, and suggest that continuing education should be strengthened to improve the professional knowledge level of GPs in primary care institutions, particularly, knowledge of health policies and regulations, disease prevention and health management.

The outbreak of viral pneumonia caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in Wuhan, China poses a major threat to public health. SARS-CoV-2 is highly homologous to severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus and Middle East respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus, all of which may cause severe respiratory symptoms. In addition to respiratory symptoms, a considerable proportion of patients with SARS and SARS-CoV-2 infection have varying degrees of liver injury, but their epidemiological features and pathogenesis remains unclear. This article summarizes the epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 and elaborates on the current status of the research on SARS-CoV-2, possible mechanism of liver injury caused by SARS-CoV-2, and effective treatment regimens, so as to provide a reference and new research ideas for the prevention and treatment of liver injury in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Objective To establish a simple animal model of cough variant asthma(CVA)through sensitizing Brown-Norway(BN)rats with ovalbumin(OVA). Methods A total of 36 BN rats were randomly divided into three groups, including the normal control group,the model control group and the montelukast group. BN rats in the model group and the montelukast group were intraperitoneally administered with 2.0 mg of OVA and 100 mg of Al(OH)3,and the same volume of sterile saline was given to the normal group by intraperitoneal injection. Boosting was carried out by intraperitoneal administration with 0.01 mg of OVA and 100 mg of Al(OH)33 weeks later,and the rats in the normal group were injected with the same dose of physiological saline. Three weeks later,the actively sensitized BN rats were challenged with aerosolized OVA for 7 times on alternative days,and the rats in the normal group were treated with sterile saline instead of OVA. At the same time, the montelukast group was given 1.3 mg/kg of montelukast 30 minutes before atomization by intragastric administration once a day for 2 weeks,and the normal group and the model group were given the same volume of water. The tests of cough sensitivity to capsaicin and bronchial responsiveness were performed 24 h after the last administration. Results Compared with the normal group, the times of coughing(P< 0.01)and the lung resistance(RL)(P< 0.05)in the model group were significantly increased,while the lung compliance(Cdyn)was significantly decreased(P< 0.05). There was a significant difference(P < 0.05)in the times of coughing caused by capsaicin between the model group and the montelukast group. Compared with the model group,RLin the montelukast group was decreased significantly(P< 0.05), and Cdynwas increased significantly(P< 0.05). Conclusions This rat model of CVA is similar to a variety of clinical features of CVA and is easy to operate. Thus it can be used as an effective animal model of CVA.

Objective To analyze the content of clinical practice guidelines and provide references for developing Chinese clinical practice guideline of dysphagia with stroke. Methods Content analysis was used to analyze the contents of clinical practice guideline related to dysphagia with stroke which were searched from Internet. Results Ten guidelines were included which were consisted of 2 Chinese guidelines and 8 English guidelines. These guidelines' themes were stroke involving dysphagia, and only two of them were targeted on dysphagia. And one of them was targeted on dyshagia with stroke. Only one guideline hadn't been revised yet, and the rest had been updated. Twenty items were identified from 10 guidelines as been concerning to dysphagia with stroke. Conclusions Current clinical practice guideline about dysphagia with stroke can be used to guide clinical practice. However, some recommendations of guidelines are not clear and not updated in time which can't provide specific references for dysphagia. A clinical practice guideline which is suitable for dysphagia with stroke in China should be developed based on best evidece and Chinese actual conditions.

Background: At present, clinical dilemma remains to be solved in terms of therapy-choices for specific locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) patients: 1) Although concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) is recommended as the first choice for them, many patients, influenced by the Chinese culture, prefer to choose radical surgery (RS) as their primary treatment. The difference between the 2 therapies in improving patient prognosis is still unknown. 2) Laparoscopy has been questioned since the noted Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer trial. Nevertheless, clinical research on laparoscopic surgery under the strict tumor-free principle is still underway globally, therefore whether laparoscopic surgery can be used for specific LACC is also an urgent issue to be explored. Methods A multi-center, randomized controlled study is designed to investigate the effect of different treatment strategies on the prognosis and quality of life (QoL) in patients with specific locally LACC. A total of 402 patients will be enrolled over a period of 3 years. Eligible patients will be randomized (3:1) to either RS group or CCRT group. Patients assigned to RS group will be randomized (1:2) to the abdominal RS group or laparoscopic RS group. All patients will then be followed-up for 5 years. The primary end point is the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS). The secondary end points include 5-year PFS, 2-year overall survival (OS), 5-year OS, adverse events caused by RS or CCRT and QoL.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between psychological resilience and stigma, self-efficacy and self-esteem in patients with constipation after lower limb fracture surgery, and to determine nursing counter measures.Methods:A total of 102 patients who underwent lower limb fracture surgery in Jingdezhen Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from April 2020 to March 2023 were convenience sampling selected as the study objects by a cross-sectional survey. They were divided into constipation group and normal group according to whether postoperative constipation was complicated. Baseline data, Psychological Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), Social Impact Scale (SIS), General Self-efficacy Scale (GSES), and Pearson ′s method was used to analyze the correlation between CD-RISC score and SIS score, GSES score, and RSES score in patients with constipation. Results:Totally 102 survey subjects aged 18-75 (38.87 ± 6.83), including 57 males and 45 females. Postoperative constipation occurred in 37 patients, accounting for 36.27% (37/102). The average age, constipation secret history rate, postoperative analgesic use rate, CD-RIS, SIS, GSES and RSES scores of the constipation group were (50.74 ± 5.52) years, 72.97% (27/37), 62.16% (23/37), (42.11 ± 5.03) points, (59.78 ± 6.40) points, (22.74 ± 3.57) points, (20.15 ± 2.32) points, respectively. The normal group was (37.81 ± 7.45) years old, 40.00% (26/65), 41.54% (27/65), (78.43 ± 5.95) points, (36.10 ± 4.03) points, (28.26 ± 3.53) points, (27.05 ± 5.29) points, respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t values were 7.52-31.29, χ2 values were 10.27 and 4.01, all P<0.05). In the constipation group, CD-RISC score was negatively correlated with SIS score, and positively correlated with GSES score and RSES score ( r values were -0.869, 0.608, 0.582, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The incidence of constipation after lower limb fracture is high, and its psychological resilience is related to stigma, self-efficacy and self-esteem. Clinical nursing intervention is needed to improve the prognosis of patients.
