1.Guideline for developing clinical guidelines
Chinese Journal of Clinical Nutrition 2013;(3):140-142
Clinical practice guidelines have been widely applied worldwide.Compared with the developed countries,however,the development of guidelines still has many limitations in China,which is mainly due to the lack of a guideline for guiding this process.Such a guideline,defined as “a structured and coordinated programme designed with the specific aim of producing several clinical practice guidelines should be able to specify the development,dissemination,implementation,evaluation,and update of each clinical practice guideline.Furthermore,the lack of high-quality randomized controlled trials and cohort studies also restricts the development of high-level guidelines.After the development of such a guideline for developing guidelines,we can expect the faster development of Chinese clinical practice guidelines that are more carefully designed,more reliable,and more practical.
2.The present status of Chinese clinical practice guidelines
Chinese Journal of Clinical Nutrition 2010;18(6):327-329
Clinical practice guidelines are systematically developed clinical multi-discipline advisory statements which assist providers, recipients and other stakeholders to make informed decisions about appropriate health interventions. Chinese government and some clinical academic communities began to develop the domestic guidelines after 2000. Nevertheless, there were still some shortcomings presented in the domestic guidelines if assessed by the advanced appraisal instrument of the developed countries. There were four aspects as follow. The first, misunderstood the guidelines are the rule or text book. The second, ignored presentation of the procedure about development of guidelines. The third, there were a lack of high level evidences. The fourth, not declared editorial independence. However, it is necessary to develop the domestic guideline of China. With rising conflicts between the increasing needs for health care and shortage of our environment resource, development of the guidelines become one of the key steps in the process of clinical practice.
3.Progresses in Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase-activated Protein Kinases
Progress in Biochemistry and Biophysics 2006;0(07):-
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways are involved in multiple important cellular responses. To activate their downstream protein kinases by phosphorylation is a crucial manner for MAPK family members to fulfill their physiological functions. Downstream of MAPKs, there exist three structurally related MAPK-activated protein kinases (MAPKAPKs or MKs), i.e., MK2, MK3 and MK5. Once upon activated by MAPKs, MKs signal to different cellular targets, to regulate gene expression at the levels of transcription and translation, control cytoskeleton remodelling and cell cycle, and mediate cell migration and embryonic development. Recently, based on the gene knockout studies, the function divisions among different MK subfamily members are gradually clear, leading to tremendous advancements of our knowledge on MKs.

Objective:To investigate the role of recombinant E.coli LLO/OVA on regulating the function of murine CD4+ CD25+ Treg cells.Methods:After E.coli LLO/OVA or E.coli OVA vaccination,the murine spleen CD4+ CD25+ Treg,CD4+ CD25- T and CD11c cells were collected respectively by magnetic beads sorting.The concentration of IL-10 in the supernatant of mix cocultured CD4+ CD25+ Treg and CD11c cells,and the suppression role of CD4+ CD25+ Treg cells on the proliferation of CD4+ CD25- T cells were determined.The percentage of OVA specific CD8+ T cells in mouse spleen was analyzed by flow cytometry.The number of metastatic tumor nodules in lungs of the mice transplanted with B16-OVA subcutaneouly was compared before and after dilition of CD4+ CD25+ Treg cells in mice.Results:Compared to E.coli OVA,E.coli LLO/OVA significantly downregulated IL-10 secretion of CD4+CD25+Treg cells and attenuated the suppressive effect of CD4+ CD25+ Treg on the proliferation of CD4+ CD25- T cells(P

For attracting more social charity funding into the health field, in-depth interviews are conducted into four health foundations in Beijing, presenting three aspects of existing problems and obstacles in the foundations devel-opment in this article. Firstly, the foundations have low effect in fundraising, poor information publication, little com-munication between other facilities and vague mechanism in donation. Secondly, the social public has erroneous views leading to deviant behavior. Finally, some annual inspection standards of the foundation are not suitable for the health field. Based on the above analysis, suggestions about how to improve transparency and fundraising ability in foundations and change the public erroneous views in donation are proposed. The governments might be suggested to get more relax-ed on the annual inspection standards of the foundations, and build an information platform in healthcare field as well.

Objective:To provide policy recommendations for Beijing public health departments to grasp the dy-namic allocation of healthcare resources and the advantage of medical functional dispersal, and making appropriate health policies to rationally adjust the allocation of health resources. Methods:To study the dynamic function of Bei-jing medical, this study uses the method of accounting of cases summary of the annual report on health finance through the descriptive analysis of the gross fixed capital formation in various regional government-run health facili-ties. Results:The results of this study show that the quality of medical health administrative resources was higher, but effectively dispersed in 2015. By contrast, the basic public health resources allocation was unbalanced. Conclu-sion:This study puts forward the corresponding health policy suggestions. On one hand, it is important to make fur-ther policy to encourage high quality medical resources to be effectively relieved and the regional planning should be done according to market demand by avoiding the blind construction at the early stages. On the other hand, much at-tention should be paid on the balanced development of the basic public health service ability and the coordinated de-velopment of administrative capacity in health, and supporting policies should be formulated, which should rationally allocate the public health resources for a better overall medical functional dispersal.

Objective To study the abnormal alteration of regions in bipolar depression patients,so as to investigate its pathophysiologic mecha?nism. Methods Regional homogeneity(ReHo)technology of resting?state functional magnetic resonance imaging were used to compare 24 bipolar depression patients and 28 healthy controls. Results Compared to the healthy controls,the bipolar depression patients exhibited significantly higher ReHo value in the bilateral superior frontal gyrus,the bilateral middle frontal gyrus,the bilateral medial frontal cortex,the bilateral supplementary motor area,the left paracentral lobule and the left precentral gyrus(all P<0.001). Conclusion The abnormal function in the bilateral superior frontal gyrus,the bilateral middle frontal gyrus,the bilateral medial frontal cortex,the bilateral supplementary motor area,the left paracentral lobule and the left precentral gyrus may associate with the mechanism of pathophysiology in bipolar depression.

AIM:To investigate the effects of peroxiredoxin 4 ( Prdx4) protein expression levels on the migra-tion and invasion of human cervical cancer HeLa cells.METHODS:The plasmid pcDNA3.0-HA-Prdx4 was transfected into HeLa cells.The HeLa cells were infected with LV-Prdx4 RNAi vector to establish stable Prdx4 shRNA HeLa cells. The change in the expression of Prdx4 protein was validated by Western blotting.The wound-healing assay, and Transwell migration and invasion assays were performed to detect the migration and invasion of HeLa cells, respectively.RESULTS:The expression of Prdx4 protein was up-regulated in the HeLa cells after transfection with pcDNA3.0-HA-Prdx4 plasmid ( P<0.05), whereas it was down-regulated in the Prdx4 shRNA HeLa cells (P<0.05).The abilities of migration and inva-sion were significantly increased in Prdx4-overexpressing HeLa cells compared with non-transfected and mock plasmid trans-fected control groups ( P<0.01) .When Prdx4 was knocked down by shRNA, the migration and invasion of the HeLa cells were remarkably repressed compared with blank control group and negative control group ( P<0.01 ) .CONCLUSION:The up-regulation of Prdx4 expression facilitates the migration and invasion of HeLa cells, and the down-regulation of Prdx4 expression inhibits the migration and invasion of HeLa cells, indicating that Prdx4 may be a potential molecular target for cervical cancer therapy.
