Objective To evaluate the application of health education in patients with cholecystectomy. Methods From October 2009 to July 2010, 93 patients in our hospital with cholecystectomy were randomly divided into the control group (45 cases) and the observation group(48 cases). The control group was given routine nursing care, the observation group received perioperative health education in addition to the routine nursing care, then compared the nursing effect of two groups. Results In the observation group, the patients' knowledge and awareness rate of their own disease was 95.8%, and the control group was 80.0%, the difference was statistically significant between two groups. The recovery of gastrointestinal function in the observation group was significantly better than the control group, the difference was statistically significant between two groups. Conclusions Health education can enable patients with cholecystectomy correct understanding of their disease, eliminate negative emotions, and help the recovery of gastrointestinal function in patients, which is worthy of attention.

Objective To study paraquat adsorbability of different field soils in Guangxi province of China. Methods HPLC method was adopted to measure the peak area of paraquat in three different media of four types of soils. Chromatographic column was Kromasil C18 column (4. 6 mm×200 mm, 5 μm); mobile phase was acetonitrile-water (including 0. 03 mol·L-1 sodium heptanesulfonate and 0. 24 mol·L-1 phosphoric acid) at a ratio of 397 (pH adjusted to 2. 0 by triethylamine). Detection wave length was 258 nm; column temperature was 25 ℃; the injection volume was 20 μL; flow rate was 0. 8 mL·min-1 . The peak areas of paraquat before and after being adsorbed were compared to calculate the adsorption rate of paraquat in different soils. Results All tested soil samples possessed the adsorption rate of paraquat over 99. 0%. Conclusion Four common field soils in Guangxi province can be used as temporary effective absorbents for the first-aid of paraquat poisoning.

Abstract: Objective　To understand the clinical manifestations, symptoms, treatment and recovery of neonates infected with Omicron variant (BA.5.1.3) of SARS-CoV-2, and provide a certain reference for subsequent diagnosis and treatment of related diseases. Methods　The clinical manifestations, epidemiology, auxiliary examinations, and treatment processes of the neonate aged 4-day-old who was community-acquired infection of variant BA.5.1.3 in Sanya was retrospectively analyzed. Results　The neonate's mother was identified as a close contact with patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) one hour before delivery, and tested positive for nucleic acid within 24 hours after delivery. But her breast milk, amniotic fluid, placenta, and umbilical cord were not detected for nucleic acid test after delivery. The nucleic acid test of the neonate was negative within 24 hours after birth. Then he was transferred to the hotel for isolation. Before the transfer, the mother and baby stayed in the same room and ate breast milk but the mother did not wear any mask. The neonate didn't have nucleic acid test on the second and third days of his life, and the nucleic acid test of the neonate was positive on the fourth day, negative on the fifth day, and positive on the sixth day. Then he was transferred to the designated hospital of COVID-19 for treatment. The neonate had no cough, no fever, yellow skin, abdominal distension, general breast feeding, and good reaction. On admission, the laboratory examination showed that blood routine examination and electrolyte were normal, and the myocardial enzyme and liver and kidney functions were normal. The bilirubin was significantly increased (449.3 μmol/L). The nucleic acid test of the neonate was positive and his chest imaging results were normal. The treatment measures were mainly isolation, feeding, blue light fading, close monitoring of vital signs, and antiviral drugs were administered. Jaundice subsided and abdominal distension was relieved after 6 d of treatment, and the treatment process was smooth without complications. Conclusions　The results suggest that the neonates are susceptible to Omicron variant BA.5.1.3 and prone to aggregation. The evidence of vertical transmission is insufficient and the clinical symptoms of neonates infected with Omicron variant BA.5.1.3 are mid, with no involvement of organ damage of the heart, liver, kidney, brain, and other organs.

The discovery of drug targets plays a crucial role in drug research. Accurate information of small molecule drug-protein interaction can be provided by label-free target discovery technology without any structural modification at the small molecule. So, the label-free drug target discovery technology had become the powerful tool to discover the targets of drugs. Due to the “multi-component and multi-target” characteristics of traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs), the research on its targets and mechanism had been restricted. Based on potential of the label-free target discovery technology in the research of TCMs, this paper summarized the label-free target discovery technology and its application in TCMs research. It will provide a reference for the discovery of targets of TCMs and a new view for promoting the modernization of TCMs.

OBJECTIVETo investigate morphological changes of capillary in aging brain and explore the role of vascular factor in brain aging.

METHODSTwenty-eight brains of individuals (mean age 65 years) who died without clinical or pathological involvement of nervous system and 6 brains of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients (mean age 83 years) were obtained at autopsy. Sections from frontal lobe, occipital lobe, striatum and hippocampus of normal subjects and sections from hippocampus of AD patients were used for hematoxylin eosin (HE), lox fast blue (LFB), toluidine blue stains and ulex europaeus agglutinin (UEA) immunostaining. After observations of morphological changes of neuron and capillary, computer-aid image analysis was performed to quantify numerical density and area density of neuron and capillary in frontal lobe, occipital lobe, putamen, CA3 sector of normal subjects and CA3 sector of AD patients. Numerical ratio and area ratio of neuron and capillary were then calculated. Correlations between neuron/capillary ratio and age were estimated using Pearson's correlation test. Difference of neuron/capillary ratio in CA3 sectors between AD patients and advanced aged normal subjects (> 75 years) was analyzed with Student's t-test.

RESULTSSeveral pathological microvascular changes, including increased tortuosity, looping, bundling, stringing, and effacement of endothelia were seen in aged subjects and more prevalent in AD patients. Numerical ratio and area ratio of neuron and capillary of frontal lobe, occipital lobe and putamen significantly increased with age in normal aging subjects.

CONCLUSIONSMorphological changes and relative decrease in number and capacity of capillary in aging brain may reduce cerebral blood flow and metabolism, and consequently result in functional impairment of aging brain. Vascular factors may play an important role in the development of brain aging.
