Objective To observe the levels of intercellar adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1)of rat intestinal mucosa microvascular endothelial cells in sepsis rat,and to investigate the possible protective effect of adrenomedullin on the expression of intercellar adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1)of rat intestinal mucosa microvascular endothelial cells,and to confirm whether adrenomedullin can decrease released inflammatory factors to slow down or inhibit the occurrence and development of sepsis.Methods The rat intestinal mucosa microvascular endothelial cells were isolated and cultured in vitro,and it was divided into sham operated(sham operated serum),sepsis serum(with addition of sepsis serum)and ADM serum(with 0.lng/kg adrenomedullin 6h after sepsis treatment)groups.The soluble ICAM-1(sICAM-1)content in RIMMVECs culture supernatant was measured by ELISA at the 24th hour after serum stimulation.Results The ICAM-1 content in the supernatant of sepsis group [(0.33 ±0.04)ng/L] was obviously higher than that in sham operated [(0.15 ± 0.02)ng/L] and ADM [(0.17 ± 0.04)ng/L] group(P ＜ 0.05),but ADM group was no significantly different compared with sham operated group(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions ADM could decrease the expression of ICAM-I in RIMMVECs,and the low level of ICAM-1 could suppress its downstream inflammation factors and inhibit the occurrence and development of sepsis.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the separation and detection of related substances in baicalein,identify its structure and preliminarily explore the degradation mechanism. METHODS:HPLC was adopted to detect the baicalein,related impurities and forced destruction of degradation products in synthesis process:the column was ES Industries? FluoroSep-RP Phenyl with mobile phase of 0.3%formic acid-methanol-acetonitrile(gradient elution)at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min,the detection wavelength was 275 nm,the column temperature was 10℃,and the injection volume was 10μL. LC-MS/MS was conducted to identify the related substances and conjecture degradation mechanism:the column was ES Industries? FluoroSep-RP Phenyl with mobile phase of 0.3%formic acid- methanol (gradient elution)at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min,the detection wavelength was 275 nm,column temperature was 10℃,and the injection volume was 10μL;ion source was electrospray ion source,positive and negative ions,nebulizer pressure was 55 psi and the drying gas flow was 11 L/min,drying gas temperature was 350℃,capillary voltage was 4.0 kV,detection modes were full-scan first-order MS and selective ion full-scan second-order MS,scan ranges were m/z 100-1000 (first-order MS) and 50-500(second-order MS),ionization voltage was 80-135 eV,and the collision energy was 10-30 eV. RESULTS:The linear range of baicalein was 2.4-480μg/mL(r=0.9999);RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 2.0%;the limit of quantitation was 7.2 ng,the limit of detection was 2.4 ng. Baicalein was well separated with related substance and 3 major degradation products,the related substance was chemical synthesis precursor wood butterfly;the degradation products were 6,7-quinone derivatives and 7,8-quinone derivatives,which were isomers;oxidative degradation products were benzoic acid phenyl ester derivatives. CONCLUSIONS:The main mechanisms of alkali degradation and oxidative degradation of baicalein include pyran, reciprocal rearrangement and oxidation reaction;the established method is specific and sensitive,and can be used for the detection of related substances in baicalein.

Objective: To develop the Chinese primipara social capital scale (C-PSCS), and to evaluate its validity and reliability. Methods: The items of C-PSCS were developed based on Social Capital Scale by the World Bank and Social Network Scale. This scale was modified according to the characteristics of primiparas. We selected 10 experts who specialized in related field, and two rounds of seminars about content, cultural compatibility, primiparas' characteristics, and practicability. The finally C-PSCS included four dimensions: social trust, social reciprocity, social network, and social participation. Using purposive sampling to select 1 100 primiparas in their third trimesters (gestational weeks from 30 to 36 weeks). The validity analyses included content validity, construct validity and discriminant validity. The reliability analyses included Cronbach' α coefficient, and split-half reliability. Results: 1 035 questionnaires (94.09%) were qualified and the completion time was (13.23 ± 2.53) minutes. The total score of scale was 195.38 ± 45.98, and scores for social trust, social reciprocity, social network, and social participation were 30.26 ± 4.25, 22.84 ± 4.21, 34.23 ± 7.47, and 108.05 ± 41.96, respectively. The common factor cumulative variance contribution rates of each dimension were from 52.92% to 69.37%, which achieved more than 50% of the approved standard, and all the items held factor loading >0.5 in its relevant common factor, it had good construct validity. The scale had a good content validity, the r values between each dimensions and total scale were range from 0.57 to 0.81, P<0.01. For the high-score group, scores for social trust, social reciprocity, social network, and social participation dimensions were 32.89±3.19, 25.65±3.48, 38.27±6.59, 119.94±36.61, respectively, which were higher than low-score group (27.77±3.58, 20.18±2.91, 30.40±6.13, 96.76 ± 43.60), t-values were -24.23, -27.46, -19.90, and -9.24, respectively, P<0.001. It had good discriminant validity. The Cronbach'α coefficient for the total scale and four dimensions were from 0.76 to 0.86, and whose split-half reliability were from 0.68 to 0.84. Conclusion The validity and reliability of C-PSCS were excellent, and could be used to evaluate the social capital situation on the Chinese primiparas.

Objective:To investigate the effect of abnormal D-dimer level on the prognosis of patients with frontal lobe injury, and to provide a new idea for clinical diagnosis, treatment and prognosis evaluation of frontal lobe injury.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 71 patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) who were admitted to the Surgical Care Unit of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from November 1, 2020 to February 1, 2021. According to whether TBI involved in the frontal lobe, the patients were divided into the experimental group ( n = 44) and the control group ( n = 27). Clinical data including sex, age, body mass index (BMI), length of hospital stay, ISS trauma score, GCS coma score, qSOFA score, GOS prognostic score and coagulation index test results within 24 h of admission of the two groups were recorded, and the difference of each index between the two groups was compared. Results:① D-dimer levels were significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group ( P<0.01); ② The incidence of complications in the experimental group was 40.9%, of which the incidence of lower limb vein thrombosis was 18.2%, and the incidence of complications in the control group was 18.5%, of which the incidence of lower limb vein thrombosis was 3.7%; there were statistical differences between the two groups ( P<0.05); ③ The average hospital stay of patients was 10.96 days in the control group, and 15.50 days in the experimental group with a statistically significant difference between the two groups ( P<0.05); ④ The 28-day mortality rate of patients in the experimental group was 18.2% and 7.4% in the control group. There was no significant difference in 28-day mortality between the two groups ( P>0.05); ⑤ The level of D-dimer was negatively correlated with GOS prognostic score in patients with frontal lobe injury ( r=-0.501, P<0.01). Conclusions:Patients with frontal lobe injury have increased D-dimer levels, increased incidence of complications, and longer hospital stay. There is a significant negative correlation between D-dimer level and prognosis in patients with frontal lobe injury. D-dimer can be used as a sensitive indicator to evaluate the prognosis of patients with frontal lobe injury. The higher the D-dimer level, the worse the prognosis of patients.
