Objective To summarize the nursing methods and effect of artificial femoral head replacement in treatment of osteoporotic interttochanteric fracture in elderly patients. Methods 55 patients with esteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture were selected in our hospital from February 2007 to February 2011.All patients were cared by targeted preoperative and postoperative nursing,helping them conducting functional training in time,giving discharge counseling and follow-up.The hip functional recovery of patients was evaluated by using the Harris evaluation standard,and the excellent rate of surgery was also evaluated. Results After the targeted care,55 patients went through the perioperative period safely,the average length of stay was ( 14.0 ± 3.1 )days,a total of 5 cases (9.09%)patiants suffered varying degrees of complications which were improved after symptomatic treatment.Patients were followed up for 3 to 36 months,only 2 patients died of cerebral vascular accident,all patients gained good recovery of hip function.Harris score was (84.45 ± 9.38),the excellent rate of surgery reached 78.18%. Conclusions Atificial femoral head replacement proves significant effect in treatment of osteoporotic intertrochanteric fractures in elderly patients,but with the accompanying surgical compliuations,special care and timely functional exercise methods should be paid attention to.

This study sought to amplify the CDS region of p55-v0 and p55-v3 gene in Pneumocystis carinii (PC) and to analyze their sequences.The total RNA extracted from PC- infected lungs of rats were used as the template to amplify these genes by RT-PCR.The amplified products were connected to T-vector and transformed into E.coli DH5α.The recombinant T-vectors were selected in LB culture medium containing ampicillin.Then the positive clones of recombinants were identified by PCR and digested by restrictive endonuclease.After that the recombinant were sequenced and analyzed.It was found that the CDS region of p55-v0 gene contained 1245 bps,encoding 414 amino acids.The homology between this sequence and the one reported previously in nucleotide and amino acid were 99.8% and 100% respectively.Meanwhile,the CDS region of p55-v3 contained 1053 bps,encoding 350 amino acids.As compared with GenBank,the homology in nucleotide and amino acid was 99.9% and 100% respectively.However,the similarity in nucleotide between p55-v3 and p55-v0 was just 20.9%.In this study,the CDS regions of p55-v0 and p55-v3 gene were cloned successfully,and the high homology was found between p55-v0,p55-v3 and the one reported previously by sequence analysis,p55-v3 was different from p55-v0 in nucleotides and amino acids.This result would provide a basis for comparison of immunologic functions so as to explore the mechanism of action of the p55-v3 gene.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the current situation of unreasonable prescriptions in outpatient and emergency depart-ments of our hospital,and to provide reference for rational drug use in the clinic. METHODS:The evaluation of outpatient and emergency prescriptions in our hospital during 2013-2015 were summarized and analyzed. Irrational prescriptions were divided into 3 categories,involving 19 items. The main,secondary and general factors of irrational prescriptions were analyzed by Pareto chart. RESULTS:Among 19 types of irrational prescriptions,main factors included unsuitable drug selection,inappropriate usage and dosage,inappropriate drug combination,prescribing not in accordance with the antibiotics management regulations,incomplete di-agnosis. No indications of medication,drug dosage beyond the regulations ofthree urgent seven slowwere treated as the second-ary factors. Other 12 items were general factors. CONCLUSIONS:According to the main and secondary irrational drug use types, clinical pharmacists should carry out effective intervention and pharmaceutical care to improve the level of rational drug use and en-sure the safety of clinical drug use.

Aim To explore the effect of connexin 43 ( Cx 4 3 ) on acquired gefitinib-resistance in human non small cell lung cancer ( NSCLC ) . Methods HCC827 GR, a gefitinib-resistant ( GR) NSCLC cell lines from their parental cells was established by gradually in-creasing the concentration of gefitinib. Gefitinib effica-cy in HCC827 and HCC827 GR cells was detected by MTT assay. Expression of Cx43 mRNA in HCC827 and HCC827 GR cells was determined by RT-PCR. The protein expressions of Cx43 and phospho-Akt ( p-Akt) in these cells were detected by Western blot. The func-tional gap junction intercellular communication ( GJIC ) was measured by parachute assay. The cellular locali-zation of Cx43 protein was evaluated by immunofluores-cence staining. Results MTT assay showed less ge-fitinib cytotoxicity in HCC827 GR cells than that in their parental cells with IC50 of (10. 84 ± 0. 021) μmol ·L-1 versus (0. 07 ± 0. 019) μmol·L-1 , respective-ly. Moreover, both mRNA and protein expressions of Cx43 in HCC827 GR cells were significantly lower than those in HCC827 cells ( P<0. 05 ) . However, the p-Akt protein in HCC827 GR cells was obviously higher than that in HCC827 cells ( P<0. 05 ) . Furthermore, treatment with LY294002 caused a significant reduced p-Akt expression, but a significant increased Cx43 ex-pression in HCC827 GR cells. Moreover, no detecta-ble GJIC was found in HCC827 and their GR cells with or without RA ( a well-defined GJIC enhancer ) treat-ment. Immunofluorescence staining clearly showed that Cx43 protein accumulated in the cytoplasm of HCC827 and their GR cells. Conclusion The down-regulation of Cx43 expression in cytoplasm of HCC827 GR cells may contribute to the acquired gefitinib resistance in NSCLC cells by GJIC-independent activation of PI3 K/Akt signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the effect of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1)on alveolar cells apoptosis in rat lung impact in-jury model.Methods SD rats were divided into 3 groups (normal control group,lung injury control group and PGE1 treated group).PaO2 and pulmonary coefficient were detected after 24 h of impact.TUNEL labeling was used to evaluate apoptosis and Western blot was used to estimate protein expression levels of beclin-1,LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰand NIX.Results After 24 h of impacting, there were obvious structural damage and pneumonedema in rat lung.Compared to normal control group,the PaO2 of lung injury control group decreased and the apoptosis of alveolar cells increased significantly(P <0.05).Furthermore,the expression levels of Beclin-1,LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ and NIX in the impacting control group were increased (P <0.05 ).In the PGE1 treated group,the PaO2 were decreased compared to normal control group(P <0.05),but these expression levels were higher significantly than lung injury control group (P <0.05).The expression levels of apoptosis,Beclin-1,LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ and NIX in the PGE1 treated group were in-creased compared to normal control group(P <0.05),but these expression levels were lower significantly than lung injury control group (P <0.05).Conclusion PGE1 could alleviate alveolar cells apoptosis after lung impacting injury,and which effect may as-cribe to PGE1 inhibiting NIX-mediated autophagy and autophagic apoptosis of alveolar cells.
