After the practice of maritime medical team (corps) in medical rescue during maritime disaster, the rapid response capability, cooperation and the quality of rescue were improved, and the experience of medical service of marine medical team (corps) was enriched.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between enteral nutrient albumin supply and prognosis in patients with mechanical ventilation. Methods: The clinical data of 418 mechanically ventilated patients receiving enteral nutrition support treatment in intensive care unit (ICU) of the First Hospital of Jiaxing from January 2016 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether the daily albumin supply was up to standard, the patients were divided into the standard group (albumin supply was ≥1.2 g·kg^-1·d^-1) and the non-standard group (albumin supply was < 1.2 g·kg^-1·d^-1). Prealbumin, transferrin levels before and after treatment, 28-day mortality, mechanical ventilation time and the length of ICU stay were compared between the two groups. Results: A total of 418 patients were included, including 225 in the standard group and 193 in the non-standard group. There were no significant differences in gender, age and disease composition between the two groups, and the baseline data were comparable. There was no significant difference in daily calories between the standard group and the non-standard group (kJ/d: 119.73±31.55 vs. 110.05±28.98, P > 0.05), but the daily albumin supply of the standard group was significantly higher than that of the non-qualified group (g·kg^-1·d^-1: 1.38±0.83 vs. 0.95±0.75, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the levels of prealbumin, transferrin between the two groups before treatment. The levels of prealbumin, transferrin in standard group and non-standard group were significantly higher after treatment than before [prealbumin (mg/L): 188.53±69.25 vs. 119.44±57.62, 145.18±56.92 vs. 108.81±69.50; transferrin (g/L): 2.99±0.87 vs. 1.85±0.76, 2.09±0.81 vs. 1.52±0.76, all P < 0.05]. Moreover, prealbumin and transferring in the standard group were further improved than the non-standard group [prealbumin (mg/L): 188.53±69.25 vs. 145.18±56.92, transferrin (g/L): 2.99±0.87 vs. 2.09±0.81, both P < 0.05]. In addition, mechanical ventilation time, the length of ICU stay of the standard group were significantly shorter than those of the non-standard group (hours: 147.2±7.5 vs. 216.6±8.2, 198.8±9.5 vs. 295.4±8.9, both P < 0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference in 28-day mortality [11.56% (26/225) vs. 15.03% (29/193), P > 0.05]. Conclusion Under the condition of standard enteral nutritional calories, increased of the albumin supply can improve the clinical nutritional status of patients with mechanical ventilation, shorten mechanical ventilation time and hospital stay.

In recent years, immunotherapy with immune checkpoint as the target has made revolutionary breakthroughs in the treatment of a variety of advanced solid tumors. Notwithstanding the impressive long-term therapeutic benefits, their efficacy is limited to a small subset of cancer patients. Some patients experienced drug resistance and immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) primarily include antibodies targeting CTLA-4 and antibodies targeting PD-1 and its ligands. Thus, it is of utmost importance to screen potential biomarkers in populations that may benefit from immunotherapy, to maximize therapeutic benefits. This review summarizes the mechanism of ICIs and its related efficacy biomarker, to better guide the application of immunotherapy in clinical practice.

Objective To explore the practice and effect of peer education in improving the empathic ability of in-service nurses. Methods A total of 122 in-service nurses at a tertiary hospital scoring below 60％ in empathy ability, were randomly divided into a control group and a research group by data table method. The nurses in the control group received theoretical training in empathy, and the nurses in the research group participated in peer-educated periodic empathy training activities. The Chinese version of interpersonal response index scale ( IRI-C) , nurses'humanistic care quality table, general self-efficacy scale were used before and after intervention. Results Before the intervention, the scores of the two groups of Chinese version of interpersonal response index scale ( IRI-C) , perspective-taking ( PT) , Fantasies ( FS) , empathic concern (EC) and Personal Distress (PD) were not statistically significant (P >0. 05). After intervention, the scores of the two groups of Chinese version of interpersonal response index scale ( IRI-C) , Fantasies ( FS) and Personal Distress ( PD) scores in the research group were all higher than those in the control group (P<0. 05). There was no significant difference in the scoring before and after intervention in the control group (P>0. 05). The total score and personal pain (PD) dimensions of the Chinese version of interpersonal response index scale ( IRI-C) were significantly higher than those before the intervention ( P<0. 01). The total score of nurses' humanistic care quality, the score of humanistic care ability and humanistic care perception were all higher than those before intervention in the study group (P<0. 05), and differences are statistically significant. Conclusions The practice of peer-education empathy training can effectively improve the empathy and humanistic care quality of the in-service nurses, and improve the nursing service level.

the standard) and palliative resection,and postoperative survival time of them were respectively (10±4) months,12 months,(9± 5) months and (11±3) months.Conclusions The intraoperative frozen section biopsy and pathological results are the key points for diagnosis and treatment of unexpected gallbladder carcinoma.Patients in stage Tis and T1a should undergo cholecystectomy,while patients in stage T1b and above should undergo radical resection of gallbladder carcinoma or extended radical resection of gallbladder carcinoma.

BACKGROUND:Autoimmune regulator gene(Aire)and Wnt signaling pathway play an important role in the maintenance and differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cell pluripotency.However,whether the Wnt signal and Aire are involved in the differentiation of embryonic stem cells to thymic epithelial progenitor cells remains poorly understood. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the relationship of the Wnt signaling pathway and Aire with the differentiation of embryonic stem cells. METHODS:A two-step differentiation method was used to induce mouse embryonic stem cells to differentiate into endoderm and then into thymic epithelial progenitor cells.Mouse embryonic stem cells were infected with Aire shRNA lentivirus,and monoclonal stable strains were screened by puromycin.Mouse embryonic stem cells were collected on days 0,3 and 10 of the directed induction of differentiation after the induced differentiation by the two-step differentiation method.Cellular immunofluorescence,flow cytometry,western blot assay,and real-time qPCR were used to detect the expression changes of related genes and proteins. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Immunofluorescence staining showed positive expression of SSEA1 and OCT4 on day 0 of targeted induction of differentiation.(2)Immunofluorescence staining showed double-positive expression of SOX17 and FOXA2 on day 3 of targeted induction of differentiation.(3)Flow cytometry results showed positive expression of EPCAM1,K5 and K8 on day 10 of targeted induction of differentiation.(4)Compared with undifferentiated mouse embryonic stem cells,the expressions of Wnt7a,β-catenin,and Gsk-3β proteins were elevated,and the expression level of Aire protein was decreased in induced differentiated thymic epithelial progenitor cells.(5)Compared with undifferentiated mouse embryonic stem cells,the expressions of Wnt7a,β-catenin,Gsk-3β and Aire mRNA were elevated in thymic epithelial progenitor cells.(6)Compared with normal cultured mouse embryonic stem cells and their ultimately differentiated thymic epithelial progenitor cells,the expression levels of Wnt7a,β-catenin and Gsk-3β proteins were reduced in mouse embryonic stem cells with knockdown of Aire genes and their final differentiated thymic epithelial progenitor cells.In conclusion,the Wnt signaling pathway and Aire are jointly involved in the process of targeted induction of differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells into mouse thymic epithelial progenitor cells.
