1.Progress on phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae
Chinese Journal of Clinical Infectious Diseases 2014;7(2):179-182
Klebsiella Pneumoniae is an important pathogen for various infections clinically,in which hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKP) mainly causes pyogenic liver abscess.By now,there are no standardized method to identify hvKP strains.hvKP strains are usually with hypermucoviscous phenotype,and the prevailing serotypes and clonal types are K1,K2 and CC23,CC65,respectively.Genes rmpA,magA,alls and kfu contribute to the pathogenicity of hvKP.This paper reviews the identification,clonal types and serotypes,hypermucoviscous phenotype and some other virulent genes of hvKP.

3.A randomized controlled clinical trial of acupuncture to prevent nausea and vomitingafter breast surgery
The Journal of Practical Medicine 2015;31(23):3950-3952
Objective To investigate whether acupuncture can prevent postoperative nauseaand vomiting (PONV)in patients received breast surgery. Methods Two hundred and forty patients were randomly divided into the acupuncture group and the control group. Patients in the acupuncture group were treated at bilateral Hegu (L4) and Neiguan (P6) after surgery. Patients in the control group received no any interventions. The occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, the number of complete remission and the remedial treatment were record ed. Results The incidences of nausea and vomiting in the acupuncture group were lower than those in the control group from 2 h to 6 h post-operation, with less need of remedy treatment (P < 0.05, respectively). Conclusion Acupuncture in preventing nausea and vomiting after breast surgery owns a certain value in the early postoperative (6 h) stage, with effectively reducing the occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting.
4.N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor NR2B subunit and neuronal apoptosis
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2010;18(4):306-310
Neuronal apoptosis is one of the important forms of neuronal death in ischemic stroke.N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-mediated excitatory amino acid toxicity plays an important role in neuronal apoptosis. It is the initiator and executor of apoptosis in neuronal cells. NR2B is the major regulatory subunit of this receptor, its transmembrane segment M2 is a reflexed membrane loop region facing cytoplast toward intramembrane, forming the inner wall of ion channel, which determines the permeability of the NMDA receptor ion channel to calcium. Glutamate mediates cell injury mainly through calcium overload, therefore, NR2B subunit plays a vital role in the neuronal apoptosis in ischemic stroke.
5.Attention should be paid to hereditary ovarian cancer
Journal of Xi'an Jiaotong University(Medical Sciences) 2017;38(5):625-632
The occurrence of 20 to 25 percent of ovarian cancer is associated with genetic factors.Hereditary ovarian cancer includes genetic ovarian cancer and familial ovarian cancer.The genetic characteristics of tumors and the development of gene testing technology make it possible to detect tumor-related mutational genes by testing the gene of the proband and thus identify the other family members at risk and intervene early so as to realize early prevention and detection of the cancer.The paper reviews the genetic basis and pathogenesis of hereditary ovarian cancer as well as methods of detecting mutational genes, management of the proband, problems at present, and disease prevention for high-risk individuals.It stresses that we should pay attention to hereditary ovarian cancer in clinical work, identify the proband, and make comprehensive evaluation of risks of the patients` relatives so as to provide individualized guidance and carry out the concept of precision medicine.

ObjectiveTo compare the correlation and agreement of international normalized ratio (INR) measured by INRatio coagulometer and standard laboratory venous blood measurement in order to judge the clinical application value of measuring INR by INRatio coagulometer.MethodsOne hundred who received warfarin were chosen randomly.Venous blood and finger capillary blood were taken simultaneously for measurement of INR by laboratory coagulation analyzer SYSMEX CA-7000 and INRatio coagulometer respectively.The correlation and agreement of INR results tested by the two methods were analyzed.Results When INR ≤5,there was a good correlation between INRatio coagulometer and laboratory coagulation analyzer SYSMEX CA-7000 (r =0.898,P =0.000).The mean bias of the two methods was 0.36 and INR measured by INRatio coagulometer were higher than those tested by laboratory coagulation analyzer SYSMEX CA-7000.By Bland-Altman,it showed a good agreement for 91.2% (62/68) of the difference INR located 95% the limited of agreement when the mean INR 1.60 - 3.50,and a bad agreement for only 50.0%(1/2) of the difference INR located 95% the limited of agreement when the mean INR > 3.50.ConclusionsIn the therapeutic range,INR measured by INRatio coagulometer shows a good correlation and agreement with INR measured by the established laboratory method.INRatio coagulometer can be used to monitor INR in the patients received oral anticoagulant therapy.

Objective:To explore influence of psychological intervention on mental state in patients With rheumatic heart dis-ease (RHD)after valve replacement surgery.Methods:A total of 60 RHD patients after valve replacement surgery Were randomly and equally divided into routine nursing group and psychological intervention group according to number table,the latter received additional psychological intervention besides routine nursing intervention.Symptom checklist 90 (SCL-90) Was used to assess mental state of tWo groups 1 d before and one Week after surgery.Results:There Were no significant difference in SCL-90 scores betWeen tWo groups before psychological intervention (P>0.05).Compared With routine nursing group one Week after operation,there Were significant reduction in SCL-90 scores of somatization [(1.31±0.47) scores vs.(0.55±0.68)scores],obsessive-compulsive symptom [(2.11±0.35)scores vs.(0.78±0.35)scores],inter-personal relationship sensitivity [(1.57±0.53)scores vs.(1.22±0.46)scores],depression [(1.63±0.29)scores vs. (1.00±0.41)scores],anxiety [(0.98±0.17)scores vs.(0.76±0.13)scores],hostility [(1.11±0.31)scores vs.(0.80 ±0.37)scores]and phobia anxiety [(1.39±0.26)scores vs.(0.53±0.19)scores]in psychological intervention group,P<0.01 or P<0.05. Conclusion:Psychological intervention can alleviate the adverse psychological state and improve quali-ty of life in patients With rheumatic heart disease.

Objective To observe the effects of substance P (SP), NK1 receptor antagonist and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitors on the secretion of nitric oxide (NO) and expression of inducible NOS (iNOS) by immortalized human keratinocyte line HaCaT. Methods The NO level in supernatant of cultured HaCaT cells was measured by nitrate reductase assay after treatment with different concentrations (10-9 to 10-6 mol/L) of SP, or the combination of SP (10-8 mol/L) and spantide (3×10-7 mol/L), aminoguanidine (10-7 mol/L), 7-nitroindazole (10-6 mol/L) or L-NAME (10-5 mol/L) for various durations. Reverse transcription-PCR was performed to measure the expression of iNOS mRNA in HaCaT cells incubated with SP of 10-8 mol/L for 1, 24 and 48 hours. Results The SP of 10-9 to 10-6 mol/L significantly induced the production of NO by HaCaT cells, and the highest level of NO was observed in HaCaT cells treated with SP of 10-8 mol/L. The synthesis of NO by HaCaT cells induced by SP was inhibited by Spantide of 3 × 10~7 mol/L at all time points (30 minutes, 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 hours, all P< 0.01), by L-NAME of 10-5 mol/L at 3 time points (30 minutes, 1, 24 hours) and by 7-nitroin-dazole of 10-6 mol/L at 2 time points (30 minutes, 1 hour, both P< 0.05), but not by aminoguanidine of 10-7 mol/L at any time point (all P > 0.05). After treatment with SP of 10-8 mol/L, the relative mRNA expression of iNOS was 0.199 ± 0.018 and 0.516 ± 0.030 at 24 and 48 hours, respectively, and there was a statistical difference between the two time points (P < 0.01). Conclusions SP can reinforce the secretion of NO by HaCaT cells via NK1 receptor activation, but iNOS is unlikely to be the primary origin of NO secreted by HaCaT cells induced by SP.
