Objective To investigate the influence of enteral nutrition (EN) emulsion containing slowrelease starch on blood sugar level in patients with craniocerebral injury. Methods Totally 120 patients with severe craniocerebral injury complicated with hyperglycemia joined this open study and were randomized into control group and study group. Study group was given EN emulsion containing slow-release starch ( Fresubin Diabetes)and control group was given routine EN emulsion ( Fresubin), both for 15 days. Fasting blood glucose (FBG),2-hour postprandial glucose (2hPG), and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were examined before EN support and 7 days and 15 days after EN support. Results In the study group, the levels of 2hPG before EN support and on the seventh and fifteenth day after EN support were ( 12.26 ± 2. 36 )mmol/L, (9.76 ± 2.90 ) mmol/L, and (9.78 ± 1.86) mmol/L, respectively. The levels of 2hPG after EN support were both significantly lower than that before EN support (P < 0. 05). However, the levels of FBG and HbA1c in the study group were not significantly different before and after EN support ( P > 0. 05 ). In the control group, the levels of 2hPG on the seventh and fifteenth day after EN support were ( 11.70 ± 2. 80) mmol/L and ( 11.39 ± 2. 44 ) mmol/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in study group ( P = 0. 033, P = 0. 020). The levels of FBG and HbA1c werenot significantly different between the study group and the control group ( P > 0. 05 ). Conclusion EN emulsion containing slow-release starch may promote the control of blood sugar in patients with craniocerebral injury complicated with hyperglycemia and improve the level of postprandial blood sugar in those patients.

OBJECTIVETo study the anti-cancer effect of matrine (Mat) on U937 cell line and its possible molecular mechanism.
METHODThe cells were cultured in medium containing either 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, or 0.5 g x L(-1) of Mat. The morphological alteration was observed by inverted microscopy and electron microscopy. Cell proliferation was analyzed by Try pan blue staining and MTT. The method of Western Blot was used to detect phosphorylation activity of MAPK.
RESULTMatrine had a significant inhibitory effect on proliferation of U937 cell line at the concentration of 0.2 g x L(-1). Treated with matrine of 0.2 g x L(-1) for 48 h, U937 cells became smaller and appeared more round than previously. The number of U937 cells showing apoptosis increased with elevation of the concentration of the matrine. Matrine had an ability of inhibiting the activity of ERK and increasing the activities of p38 and JNK to some degree in U937 cells.
CONCLUSIONMatrine can inhibit the proliferation of U937 cell line in vitro and induce its apoptosis possibly through inhibiting the activity of ERK and increasing the activities of p38 and JNK in U937 cells.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors and implementation paths of medical and preventive integration of chronic disease in county medical communities (CMCs), providing references for further promoting the integration of medical and prevention and improving the collaborative mechanism of medical and prevention.Methods:From October to November 2023, based on the principle of geographically balanced sampling, medical staff from 6 leading hospitals and 18 other member units of 6 CMCs in Zhejiang Province were selected as survey subjects. A self-designed survey questionnaire was conducted, mainly including the development and evaluation of chronic disease medical and preventive integration services in CMCs. The service development was designed according to the collaborative symbiosis management model, including 4 dimensions of collaborative symbiosis scenarios, willingness, ability, and process, as well as 11 secondary elements. Using secondary elements as the conditional variables and the integration effect of chronic disease medical and prevention as the outcome variable, a qualitative comparative analysis method was used to explore the relationship between multiple conditional variables and their combinations with high integration effect of chronic disease medical and prevention.Results:571 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 96.62%. The consistency of a single secondary element(including conditional non sets) on the high effectiveness of medical and preventive integration was less than 0.9, which cannot constitute a necessary condition for explaining the outcome variable. The configuration analysis results showed that the consistency of the condition combination formed by the interaction of multiple secondary elements was 0.835-0.845, indicating that the condition combination of multiple elements constituted a sufficient non necessary condition for the high integration effect of chronic disease medical and prevention. The configuration path for achieving high integration of medical and preventive effects could be divided into four categories, among which the feature of scenario-process dominance was to create a perfect service scenario and service process as the main focus; The characteristic of the willingness-process dominant type was to stimulate the service willingness of medical staff and improve the service process as the leading factor; The characteristic of the scenario-willingness-ability dominant type was to create a comprehensive service scenario, stimulate the service willingness of medical staff, and enhance service capabilities as the main focus; The characteristic of the willingness-ability-process dominant type was to stimulate the service willingness of medical staff, enhance service capabilities, and improve the service process as the dominant factor. In addition, the four types of configuration paths mentioned above all covered the two secondary elements of endogenous dynamics and professional competence, with a total coverage of 0.626 and a total consistency of 0.821.Conclusions:The configuration path formed through the interaction of multiple elements can effectively achieve the integration of chronic disease medical and prevention. The CMCs should choose the appropriate configuration path based on the actual situation. In addition, special attention should be paid to the endogenous motivation and professional capacity building of medical staff.
