Cerebral ischemia-induced inflammatory cascade reaction may aggravate nerve tissue damage and destroy blood-braln barrier, and angiogenesis after ischemia can improve nerve function. Inhibiting inflammatory response after stroke, promoting angiogenesis and protecting blood-braln may reduce nerve tissue damage and promote recovery of neurological function. Monocyte chemotactic protein 1-induced protein inhibits inflammatory signaling pathways through degradating proinflammatory cytokine mRNA. Its unique biological characteristics also suggest that it has the potential protective effect in cerebral ischemia. This article focuses on the roles of monocyte chemotactic protein 1-induced protein in cerebral ischemia.

Objective The purpose of this study was to compare the differences of job satisfaction degree between contract nurses and formal nurses. Methods 350 incumbency clinical nurses were ob-tained from 3 provincial and grade three A hospitals(including nurses in internal medicine, surgical,gyne-cologic,pediatric,emergency departments and ICU). Research instruments used in this study included the self-designed demographic questionnaire and the nurses' job satisfaction scale. Results The level of the overall job satisfaction degree among contract nurses was lower than that of the formal nurses. Of all job satisfaction subscales, the scores of professional opportunities, performance and responsibility,salary and welfare, administration and hospital policy, interpersonal relationships among contract nurses were lower than those of formal nurses. But the scores of scheduling and work conditions, professional traits were higher than those of formal nurses. Conclusions It is advocated to adopt different management and incentive mechanisms to improve the job satisfaction degree for contract nurses according to the differ- ences between contract nurses and formal nurses, so that the nursing staff can be stabilized.

Objective To observe the hemostatic effect of emergent hemostasis patch (EHP). Methods The coagulation time was studied with tube method in vitro. Hemostasis was studied with femoral artery hemorrhage models of rats and dogs as well as rabbit hepatorrhexis model in vivo. Results The clotting time of EHP of high, medium and low concentrations was (4.9±1.3)min, (5.7±1.8)min and (5.8±1.3)min, respectively, which was significantly lower than that of control (14.4±1.6)min in vitro. In femoral hemorrhage models of rats and dogs, the duration and amount of bleeding in EHP of high, medium and low doses were significantly decreased compared with those in the PVF sponge group (P<0.01 or P<0.05). The results of rabbit hepatorrhexis experiment showed that EHP of three doses obviously decreased the hemostatic time and blood loss compared with PVF sponge group (P<0.01). Conclusion EHP can shorten coagulation time and bleeding time, and reduce bleeding amount.
