It has been known that the renal microvasular lesions could aggravate the progress of glomerular sclerosis and tubulo-interstitial fibrosis in chronic kidney diseases. Modern pharmacological studies indicated that the two traditional Chinese herbs, Astragalus membranaceus and Angelica sinensis, could improve micorvascular lesions through multiple mechanisms, including increasing local renal blood flow to lessen the hypoxic renal injury, promoting the recovery of renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate after ischemia-reperfusion, modulating the imbalance of vaso-activators such as nitric oxide and angiotensin, increasing the expression of vascular epithelial growth factor and inhibiting the release of the intracellular calcium ion and promoting DNA synthesis in endothelial cells to improve the function of endothelial cells. These evidences suggest that Astragalus membranaceus and Angelica sinensis may retard the progress of renal diseases through the above-mentioned mechanisms.

Objective To research the differential expression of trace phosphorylated proteins in human gastric adenocarcinoma epithelial (AGS) cells infected by Helicobacter pylori. Methods H. pylori 26695 strain infected AGS cells 4 h and AGS cells was cultivated for 4 h as a comparison. The proteins of AGS and comparison AGS cells were extracted. Their phosphorylated proteins were enriched by metal ion af-finity adsorption enrichment techniques. After desalinated and purified the phosphorylated proteins samples were separated by 2-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-DE) technique. Computer assisted image analysis was used to analyze the differential proteomic expression. The significantly differentially ex-pressed proteins were unambiguously assigned identities by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/TOF). Results Fifteen kinds of proteins were down-regulated, 4 kinds of new proteins were observed, 1 kind of proteins were up-regulated, 1 kind of proteins unexpression. The 21 proteins that were significantly differentially expressed , including cellular calcium ion homeostasis, transcription, interpretation, protein folding and transport, ribosomal assembly, centrosome replication, chromosome stability, cellular structure, cellular proliferation and apoptosis. Conclusion H. priori can cause a wide range change to human gastric adenocarcinoma epithelial cell protein pheshorylation. This change character has great significance to further comprehensive understanding of the pathogenesis of H. pylori.

Objective To explore the effect of prevention and treatment on steroid-induced osteonecrosis of mice femoral head(ONFH) treated with metformin. Methods Thirty-six Kunming mice were randomly divided into three groups (n = 12):A (Control Group), B (Model Group)and C (Prevention Group). For producing ONFH mice models, did the intraperitoneal injection of horse serum (10 mL/kg) to B and C firstly. After two weeks, continuing the intraperitoneal injection of horse serum (5 mL/kg) again with the prednisolone intramuscularly [45 mL/(kg· day), totally for 5 days]. Meanwhile, feeding normal saline 10 mL/(kg·day) to B and feeding metformin hydrochloride [0.2 g/(kg·day)] to C. For A, mice were only given normal saline intramuscularly and intragastrically in equal quantity at the same time. The contents of serum cholesterol (TC), triglycerid (TG), plasma von willebrand factor (VWF) and plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) were determined at the 2nd, 4th and 6th week after treatment. The micewere sacrificed at 2nd, 4th, and 6th weekafter treatment, and femoral heads were harvested to do histopathology analysis. Results The appearance and shape of the femoral head and the surface of cartilages were normal. The percentage of empty osteocyte lacunae in B was significantly higher than that in C (P < 0.05), there was no significant difference between A and C (P>0.05). TC and TG contents in C were significantly lower than that in B in 2th、4th、6th weeek(P<0.05), and higher than that in A(P<0.05). VWF and PAI-1 level in C were significantly lower than that in B at 2nd and 4th week (P<0.05), but there were no statistical significance at 6th week. there were no statistical significance for the comparison between A and C. Conclusion Metformin can prevent steroid-induced ONFH by improving hyperlipemia, hypercoagulability and hypofibrinolysis, then effectively prevent osteonecrosis.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the erectile and ejaculatory function of sacral tumor patients after sacral nerve root resection and investigate the relationship of erectile and ejaculatory dysfunction (EED) with the level of sacral nerve injury.

METHODSThis retrospective study included 47 male patients aged 16 to 63 (32.6 +/- 6.8) years treated by sacral tumor resection between January 2008 and August 2013. According to the levels of the sacral nerve roots spared in surgery, the patients were divided into four groups: bilateral S1-S3 (n=16), unilateral S1-S3 (n=21), unilateral S1-S2 (n=6), and unilateral S1 (n=4). The patients were followed up for 12 to 41 (27.2 +/- 10.9) months by questionnaire investigation, clinic review, and telephone calls about their erectile and ejaculatory function at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery and in August 2013.

RESULTSIn the bilateral S1-S3 group, the incidence rates of EED were 31.25% (5/16), 25% (4/16), and 12.5% (2/16) at 3, 6, and 12 months respectively after surgery, with recovery of erectile and ejaculatory function in August 2013. The incidence rates of EED in the unilateral S1-S3 group were 85.71% (18/21), 71.43% (15/21), 52.38% (11/21), and 42.86% (9/21) at 3, 6 and 12 months and in August 2013, respectively; those in the unilateral S1-S2 group were 100% (6/6), 83.33% (5/6), 83.33% (5/6), and 66.67% (4/6) at the four time points; and those in the unilateral S1 group were all 100% (4/4). No statistically significant differences were found in the incidence rate of EED among the patients of different ages or tumor types (P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe incidence of postoperative EED in male patients treated by sacral tumor resection is closely related to the mode of operation. Sparing the S3 nerve root at least unilaterally in sacral tumor resection is essential for protecting the erectile and ejaculatory function of the patient.

Objective To compare the different effects of 1% diatrizoate meglumine,2.5% mannitol and water as oral contrasts in PET/CT scan in gastrointestinal tract delineation and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake. Methods Sixty-one patients referred for PET/CT scan without gastrointestinal diseases were divided into three groups randomly ( random number method). One liter of 1% diatrizoate meglumine,2.5% mannitol,or water was orally taken by groups 1 (25 cases),2 (20 cases) and 3 ( 16 cases),respectively before scan. The scan was performed with GE Discovery LS PET/CT scanner in two-dimensional (2D) mode 50 min after 18F-FDG (5.55 MBq/kg) injection. Patients with abdominal lesions were excluded from this study. The degree of gastrointestinal filling and 18F-FDG uptake was evaluated by 3 nuclear medicine physicians using visual analysis according to a 4-grade classification method:none,mild,moderate,and high. Statistically analysis was performed by Kruskal-Wallis,Mann-Whitney and paired t tests.Results Both the differences of serum glucose and insulin levels were not significant before and after contrast taken in group 2. Group 2 had better gastrointestinal filling than that of group 1 and also better than group 3 except in rectum. The stomach,jejunum,ascending,and transverse colon were better filled in group 1 than in group 3. The degree of 18F-FDG uptake of group 3 was significantly higher than that of group 2 in stomach,jejunum and ileum (z= -3. 192,-3.290,-3.290,all P＜0.05),and was also significantly higher than that of group 1 (z = - 3. 603,P ＜ 0.05) in jejunum. The degree of 18 F-FDG uptake of group 3 was significantly lower than that of group 1 in ascending colon (z = - 2. 706,P ＜ 0. 05 ) and was significantly lower than that of group 1 and 2 in transverse and descending colon (z= - 3. 503,- 2.403,- 4.225,-4. 027,all P ＜0.05),and was also significantly lower than that of group 2 in rectum (z = -4. 128,P ＜0. 01 ). The maximum CT values in stomach,jejunum,ileum and ascending colon in group 1 were ( 132 ±23),(191 ±31),(313 ±47) and (374±53) HU,respectively,whose difference was significant (t = -7.088--1.781,all P ＜0. 01 ). Conclusion Oral iso-osmotic mannitol intake has better gastrointestinal filling and less physiological 18F-FDG uptake compared to diatrizoate meglumine and water.

Objective: This study aimed to translate the English version of the Perceived Competence Scale for Disaster Mental Health Workforce (PCS-DMHW) into Chinese, and to test its reliability and validity in Chinese mental health workers. Methods: With the consent of Professor Choi, Keimyung University, Korea, and the authorization of the scale, the English version of PCS-DMHW was translated, retranslated and culturally debugged to form the Chinese version of PCS-DMHW. The general information questionnaire and the Chinese version of PCS-DMHW scale were used to investigate 706 mental health workforce from 9 tertiary hospitals in Sichuan province in China from March 24, 2020 to April 14, 2020. The Cronbach’s α coefficient was used to evaluate the internal consistency reliability of the scale, and the test-retest correlation coefficient r was used to evaluate the test-retest reliability of the scale. The content validity indexes (CVI) and exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was used separately for evaluating the content validity and structure validity of the scale. Results: The Cronbach’s α coefficient of the Chinese version of PCS-DMHW total scale, individual competences and organizational competences subscale was 0.978, 0.956, and 0.964, respectively. The test-retest reliability of the total scale, individual competences and organizational competences subscale was 0.949, 0.932 and 0.927, respectively. The item-level CVI of all scale were ranged from 0.833–1.000, the scale-level CVI (S-CVI)/universal agreement of the total scale, individual competences and organizational competences subscale was 0.833, 0.875, and 0.857, respectively, and the S-CVI/average was 0.972, 0.979, and 0.976, respectively. EFA showed that two principal components were extracted from the subscale of individual competences and organizational competences. Conclusion The Chinese version of PCS-DMHW has good reliability and validity, and can be widely used in China.
