Objective: To observe the effect of oxymatrine ointment on chronic eczema in mice, and preliminarily explore the mechanism. Methods:Thirty-two Kunming mice were randomly divided into four groups including oxymatrine ointment group, blank model group, blank ointment group and positive drug group treated with compound dexamethasone acetate cream. Eczema skin was con-tinuously treated with drugs for 14 days. The mice were sacrificed on the 15th day, and the eczema skin was clipped from back to make histological sections. The changes of inflammation were observed, and the inflammatory cell count was obtained. Meanwhile, heart blood was collected, and serum was obtained by centrifugation. The serum levels of IL-4 and IL-1β were determined by ELISA. Re-sults:The inflammatory cell count in oxymatrine ointment group and the positive drug group was lower than that in the blank model group and the blank ointment group (P<0. 05). The pathology results showed that oxymatrine ointment could improve chronic eczema symptoms, reduce the inflammatory cell infiltration and decrease edema, which was similar to the effects of compound dexamethasone acetate cream. In the respect of molecular immunology, the IL-4 and IL-1βlevels in serum showed no significant changes in oxymatrine ointment group (P>0. 05). Conclusion: Oxymatrine ointment has certain anti-inflammatory effect on eczema, and the mechanism needs to be studied further.

The mechanism of biological actions of quercetin was studied by using metabolomic method and biomolecular network. HPLC-MS was used to analyze the serum metabolome in rats of blank group and quercetin administration group rats, and MS data were processed by MATLAB software. With multivariate statistical analysis of serum metabolite profiles, a clear separation among blank group and quercetin administration group was achieved, potential biomarkers were selected according to the parameters of variable importance in the projection (VIP) and identified according to MS information and database retrieval. Four compounds, related enzymes, action targets and metabolic pathways had been confirmed, namely retinoic acid and RARbeta, arachidonate and COX-2, 3, 5-diodotyrosine and TPO, uridine diphosphate glucose and PDEs. The mechanism of quercetin enhancing ability of retinoic acid on the induction of RARbeta, activating TPO, using as COX-2 and PDEs inhibitor was approved by biomolecular network and related literatures. In this study, a mechanism of multiple biological actions of quercetin was evaluated at the level of the biomolecular network, metabolomics and biomolecular network can be used to investigate the biological effects mechanism of quercetin, which provided a new method to further revealing mechanism of drug action.

BACKGROUND:The number of hematopoietic stem cel s in the peripheral blood is very low at normal physiological state. So it is critical to mobilize hematopoietic stem cel s from donor’s bone marrow into the peripheral blood.
OBJECTIVE:To study the combination effect of AMD3100 and dexamethasone on the mobilization of hematopoietic stem cel s in mice, thereby laying the foundation for clinical application.
METHODS:C57BL/6 mice were injected with AMD3100 and dexamethasone alone or in combination. Then, hematopoietic stem cel s in the peripheral blood and bone marrow were col ected. CD34+cel concentration in the peripheral blood and bone marrow was determined by flow cytometer and the content of leucocytes in the peripheral blood was counted by a normal method. The CFU-Mix colony formation ability of hematopoietic stem cel s was identified by cel colony forming assay.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The concentration of CD34+cel s in the peripheral blood and bone marrow, the content of leukocytes in the peripheral blood and the CFU-Mix colony formation ability of hematopoietic stem cel s were al improved by both AMD3100 and dexamethasone and especial y their combined use. This indicates that both AMD3100 and dexamethasone could mobilize hematopoietic stem cel s to migrate from the bone marrow to the peripheral blood, and when used in combination, the mobilization effect is better than that of single drug.

Objective To study the clinical features and follow-up of newborns with severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy ( HIE) , and to provide the basis for rational diagnosis, treatment and follow-up.Methods Clinical data of cases of HIE from the Neonatal Department of our Hospital from January 2011 to October 2014 were studied retrospectively. The data of general information, laboratory examination, treatment, outcome, follow-up and prognosis of the patients were collected. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to study the influential factors of the prognosis of HIE.Results A total of 123 infants with sever HIE were enrolled in our study. In addition to general therapy, 6 cases were treated with mild hypothermia, and 21 cases were treated with high pressure oxygen. 60 cases improved our treatment, 55 cases had withdrawal treatment with parental consent, and 8 cases died. Single factor analysis showed that 5 minutes Apgar score, convulsions, coma, pH, BE, organ injury, and mild hypothermia treatment were the risk factors that affect the prognosis of severe HIE. Multiple factors analysis showed that 5 min Apgar score <3 points ( OR=4. 071 ,95℅CI 1. 309-15. 613 ) and BE≤-10 mmol/L ( OR=36. 810, 95℅CI 5. 913-41. 119) were independent risk factors of prognosis of severe HIE ( P<0. 05). Hospitalization within the first 72 hours of life ( OR=0. 096, 95℅CI 0. 096-0. 353) was a protective factor of severe HIE. Multiorgan injury ( mainly the injury of brain, lung and heart) and electrolyte imbalance ( mainly hypocalcemia and hyponatremia ) were common complications of serve HIE. In the follow-up of these patients, 33 cases were loss in follow up, and 49 cases died (8 cases died during hospitalization, 41 cases died after withdrawal of treatment). The top five causes of death were abandonment of treatment due to financial reasons and the fear of adverse outcome (n=20), multiple organ dysfunction ( n =16 ) , and pneumothorax ( n =4 ) , diffuse intravascular coagulation (n=6), and shock (n=3). 41 cases survived were followed up for 9~54 months. The critical clinical conditions observed among these infants included cerebral palsy ( n = 5 ) , epilepsy ( n = 3 ) and developmental retardation(n=26).Conclusions There are many complications of severe HIE.The mortality of severe HIE is high, and the incidence of poor outcome of survivors is also high. Timely detection of risk factors is the key to the prevention of severe HIE. Long-term prognosis of severe HIE requires proper organization of neonatal follow up.

Objective To observe the effect of shock lymph drainage on multiple organ injury of rats with traumatic hemorrhagic shock (THS) and discuss the relating mechanism. Methods Male Wistar rats were divided into control group, lymph drainage group and lymph return group. The THS model was established in lymph drainage group and lymph return group, when the shock mesenteric lymph was drained in lymph drainage group. The change of the mean arterial pressure ( MAP), the biochemical indices of liver, kidney, myocardium and acid-base, the morphology, ATP contents and ATPase activities of lung, kidney, liver and myocardium were observed. Results The MAP at multiple time points after 80 minutes of infusion, the ATP contents and ATPase activities of multiple organs in lymph drainage group were higher than those in lymph return group. Multiple biochemical indices in lymph drainage group were superior to those in lymph return group, with statistical difference. The inflammation, congestion, degeneration and necrosis were found in organs of lymph return group, but only mild lesions could be seen in lymph drainage group. Conclusions The shock lymph drainage can alleviate multiple organ injury of THS rats, mechanism of which is correlated with improvement of the energy metabolism and maintenance of MAP and acid-base status.

Detection of Oncotype DX and MammaPrint has been recommended by the American Society of Clinical 0ncology.For specific populations,such as early endocrine-dependent breast cancer,under the condition of sufficient evidence in the evidence-based medicine,we can choose genetic testing in combination with clinical pathologic factors to guide clinical treatment,which has reached the goal of micro combined with macro,more detailed division of the patients,and individualized treatment.

Objective To explore whether remote ischemic preconditioning(RIPC)can prolong the time of ultra-intense exercise(110%VO2max)by increasing the maximum cumulative oxygen deficit(MA-OD),and the specific ways of energy supply of the anaerobic metabolic system.Methods Twenty-four racquet athletes(22.2±2.0 years;174±9 cm;67.1±12.4 kg)completed three supramaximal intensi-ty tests on a treadmill at 110%VO2max intensity to exhaustion separated with Control,Placebo and RIPC interventions.RIPC was induced on the limbs on both sides(5×5 min alternating bilateral occlu-sion 220 and 60 mmHg for Placebo and RIPC interventions,respectively).Moreover,all groups under-went a fourth test with incremental load,and a fifth test with constant load at 40%,50%,60%,70%and 80%VO2max.Results The time to exhaustion and the MAOD of the RIPC group were both greater than those in the Placebo and Control groups(P<0.05).However,no significant differences were found in the average alternative maximal accumulated oxygen deficit(MAODALT),lactic anaerobic metabolism,alactic anaerobic metabolism and parameters of excess post-exercise oxygen consump-tion dynamic curve of the three groups(P>0.05).Meanwhile,in the RIPC group,the average MAOD was significantly higher than MAODALT(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed a significant rela-tionship between the improvement of MAOD and an increase in exhaustion time after RIPC interven-tion.Conclusion RIPC can improve supramaximal exercise performance of racquet athletes by enhanc-ing their MAOD,and the enhancement of glycolysis energy supply and lactic acid elimination is a po-tential intermediary of the improvement of sports performance.

Objective:To analyze the application of thinking visual guidance teaching model in anesthesia clinical practice teaching.Methods:Taking the implementation time (March 2019) of thinking visual guidance teaching model in our hospital as the limit, 56 interns who came to our hospital for anesthesia practice before the implementation were included as control group, and 61 interns enrolled after the implementation (from March 2019 to March 2020) were included in study group. The mastery status of professional skills (duration of anesthesia operation, success rate of one-time anesthesia puncture and success rate of one - time tracheal intubation), professional knowledge assessment results and professional attitude changes were compared between the two groups at 2 months and 6 months of training. Self-evaluation after 6 months of training was compared between the two groups. SPSS 18.0 was used for t test and chi-square test. Results:After 6 months of training, the mastery status of professional skills (duration of anesthesia operation, success rate of one-time anesthesia puncture, and success rate of one-time tracheal intubation) of the two groups of interns were significantly improved compared with those after 2 months of training, and the above indicators of study group were significantly better than those of control group (all P<0.05). After 6 months of training, the scores of assessment results of professional knowledge (basic knowledge, understanding and memory, case analysis, emergency handling) and professional attitude (behavior, language, initiative and adaptability) in the two groups of interns were significantly higher than those after 2 months of training, and the above indicators scores of study group were significantly higher than those of control group (all P<0.05). The scores of self-evaluation (learning efficiency, learning atmosphere, learning ability, self-confidence and satisfaction) of study group at 6 months of training were significantly higher than those of control group at the same period (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Thinking visual guidance teaching model can effectively improve the professional knowledge and operation skills of anesthesia clinical interns, and it has a good application effect.

Objective To study the transport risk and factors that influence deaths of very low birth weight (VLBW) and extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants.Method All infants transferred to our neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) by our hospital transport team or local hospital transport team from January 2014 to December 2015 were included in our study.Their clinical data were retrospectively studied.The risks of transport between hospitals were analyzed.The risk factors of deaths within and after 7 days of admission were further analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression analysis.The receiver operation characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the sensitivity and specificity of mortality index for neonatal transportation (MINT),transport related mortality score (TREMS),transport risk index of physiologic stability (TRIPS) for predicting mortality of preterm infants.Result (1) A total of 527 cases of ELBW/VLBW infants were included in our study.There were no deaths during transport.There were 10.2％ (54/527) died within and 8.9％ (42/473) died after 7 days of hospitalization.(2) Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that scleredema of newborn,secondary transport,gastrointestinal malformations,metabolic acidosis,high TREMS score,and high MINT score were risk factors of mortality within 7 days of admission for ELBW/VLBW infants;necrotizing enterocolitis,intraventricular hemorrhage ≥ three degree,high MINT score and low admission weight were risk factors of mortality after 7 days of admission.(3) The area under the ROC curve for MINT,TREMS,and TRIPS score were 0.672,0.655 and 0.665,respectively.The cut-off values for MINT score (cut-off 8,sensitivity 0.444,specificity 0.829),for TREMS score (cut-off 2,sensitivity 0.500,specificity 0.757,for TRIPS score (cut-off 20,sensitivity 0.444,specificity O.829) were selected to predict mortality within 7 days of admission.Conclusion (1) Secondary transport is the transport-related risk factor of mortality within 7 days of admission for ELBW/VLBW infants.(2) High MINT score is the risk factor of mortality within and after 7 days of admission.(3) If MINT ≥ 8,TREMS ≥2,or TRIPS ≥20,it might significantly increase the risk of mortality of ELBW/ VLBW infants within 7 days of admission after transport.

Objective To study the occurrence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants and to determine the risk factors of severe BPD.Method From January 2007 to January 2017,ELBW infants admitted to neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) in Hunan Children's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.They were assigned into severe and mild/moderate groups based on the severity of BPD.The general condition,maternal status,prenatal and delivery room treatment,transportation,clinical courses,therapy and outcome in NICU of the two groups were compared,and the risk factors of severe BPD were analyzed.Result A total of 367 cases were hospitalized during the 10 years.281 ELBW infants with complete medical records survived longer than 28 days were enrolled in this study.Among them,233 had BPD.Among BPD infants,116 cases were in the severe BPD group,47 cases (40.5％) died.117 cases were in the mild/moderate BPD group and 1 case (0.9％) died.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors of severe BPD were duration of mechanical ventilation ≥ 7 days (OR =7.518,95 ％ CI 3.197 ～ 17.676),ventilator-associated pneumonia (OR =3.047,95 ％ CI 1.436 ～ 6.464),1 min Apgar score ≤7 (OR =2.341,95 ％ CI 1.142 ～ 4.796) and patent ductus arteriosus (OR =2.223,95 ％ CI 1.079 ～4.582).Conclusion The incidence and mortality of BPD,especially severe BPD,are high in ELBW infants.Avoiding asphyxia,shortening the time of mechanical ventilation,preventing infection and closing ductus arteriosus are important measures to reduce the severity of BPD.
