Objective To explore nursing of the patients with acute myelogenous leukemia after upper abdominal cluster transplantation.Methods From March 2009 to August 2012,eight cases of upper abdominal organ cluster transplantation were performed in our center,among whom one suffered from acute myelogenous leukemia after operation.We summarized the clinical data and nursing methods of this case.Results The leukocytes,erythrocytes and platetets decreased 22 days after transplantation and the decreasing continued for more than four months.Four bone marrow biopsies were performed.During the first two biopsies,no definite cause of the blood cells decreasing was found,while the outcome of the third time showed that it was type M3 acute myeloid leukemia and genetic testing at the fourth time showed AML1/E-TO was positive.After diagnosis,the patient was shifted to the Department of Hematology and underwent further treatment.Conclusions Close observation,timely diagnosis and treatment,prevention of infection,bleeding and psychological nursing are the keys to promote patients recovery.

Objective To investigate the effect of intrathecal morphine preconditioning (ITMP) on the excitability of substantia gelatinosa (SG) neurons in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord in a rat model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R).Methods Thirty-six adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 200-300 g,in which intrathecal catheters were successfully placed without complications,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =12 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),group I/R,and group ITMP.Myocardial I/R injury was produced by occlusion of the left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery for 30 min followed by 120 min reperfusion.In group ITMP,the rats received intrathecal morphine 3 μg/kg (10 μl) by three cycles of 5 min infusions interspersed with 5 min infusion-free periods starting from 30 min before ischemia,and the equal volume of normal saline was given instead of morphine in group I/R.At 10 min of reperfusion,6 rats randomly selected in each group were sacrificed,and the T2-6 segments of the spinal cords were acutely isolated to prepare spinal cord slices.The resting potential,threshold of action potential (APT),peak of action potential (APP) and action potential duration in SG neurons in the dorsal horn of spinal cord slices were determined using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique,and the number of action potentials evoked by currents of 40,60,80 and 100 pA was recorded.At 120 min of reperfusion,6 rats randomly selected in each group were sacrificed,and myocardial specimens were obtained for determination of myocardial infarct size (IS) and area at risk (AAR),and IS/AAR ratio was calculated.The expression of c-fos in the T2-5 dorsal horns of the spinal cords was detected by Western blot.Results Compared with group S,the IS/AAR ratio was significantly increased,the expression of c-fos was up-regulated,the number of action potentials in SG neurons in dorsal horns of spinal cord was increased,APT was decreased,and APP was increased in group I/R (P＜0.05).Compared with group I/R,the IS/AAR ratio was significantly decreased,the expression of c-fos was down-regulated,the number of action potentials in SG neurons in dorsal horns of spinal cord was decreased,APT was increased,and APP was decreased in group ITMP (P＜0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which ITMP attenuates myocardial I/R injury is related to decrease in the excitability of SG neurons in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord and reduction of responses to nociceptive stimuli in rats.

Background and purpose:Ca2+plays a very important role in the maintenance of cell biological functions. The storage, release and uptake capacity of Ca2+ is controlled by endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Ca2+ homeo-stasis is essential for cellular energy metabolism and proper protein folding. This study aimed to investigate the effect of cytoplasmic Ca2+ on cisplatin induced ER stress-mediated autophagy in ovarian carcinoma SKOV3 and its underlying mechanism.Methods:The ovarian cancer SKOV3 was used as a study object. The experiment consisted of three parts:① To explore the possible relationship between cisplatin-induced ER stress and autophagy, SKOV3 cells were treated with cisplatin for 0, 6, 12 and 24 h, respectively;② To explore the possible relationship between ER stress induced Ca2+ effux and autophagy, SKOV3 cells were treated with cisplatin for 0, 9 and 12 h, respectively, and TG was used as a positive control;③ To explore the effects of blocking calcium effux on autophagy, SKOV3 cells were divided into control group, cisplatin group, TG group, BAPTA-AM group, cisplatin combined with BAPTA-AM group and TG com-bined with BAPTA-AM group. Western blot was used to detect the protein levels of GRP78 and LC3. Fluo-4 calcium lfuorescent probe was used to examine cytoplasmic Ca2+ levels. Confocal microscopy was used to detect LC3 level by immunolfurescence staining.Results:Compared to control group (0.679±0.011), GRP78 was signiifcantly accumulated at 6, 12 and 24 h after cisplatin treatment and reached the maximum value at 6 h (1.393±0.004,P=0.000). Similarly, compared to control group (0.038±0.000), LC3 puncta were clearly seen after cisplatin treatment and reached the maxi-mum value at 12 h (0.072±0.002,P=0.000). Using confocal microscopy, we found that cisplatin and TG increased LC3 punctate accumulation and cytoplasmic Ca2+ levels in a time-dependent manner. Immunolfuorescent method showed that treatment with cisplatin combined with BAPTA-AM or TG combined with BAPTA-AM increased LC3 punctate accumulation induced by cisplatin or TG. The results of Western blot showed that cisplatin combined with BAPTA-AM (0.071±0.001) or TG combined with BAPTA-AM (0.065±0.001) signiifcantly increased LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio induced by cisplatin (0.039±0.000,P=0.000) or TG (0.035±0.001,P=0.000).Conclusion:Cisplatin induces intracellular ER stress and autophagy in SKOV3 cells, accompanied by increased cytoplasmic Ca2+ levels. Chelating cytoplasmic Ca2+enhanc-es cisplatin-induced autophagy.

BACKGROUND: Oligodendrocyte precursor cell transplantation is one of the keys to the treatment of white matter damage in premature infants. At present, there is a lack of research on the comparison of oligodendrocyte precursor cells induced by neural stem cells derived from human fetal brain cultured in vitro in different vessels worldwide. OBJECTIVE: To observe the morphology of human oligodendrocyte progenitor cells and pre-oligodendrocytes in different cell culture vessels (6-well plates, 24-well plates and T25 flasks). METHODS: The 6-well plates, 24-well plates and T25 flasks were used as culture vessels to culture human oligodendrocyte progenitor cells and pre-oligodendrocytes. The characteristics of human oligodendrocyte progenitor cells were identified by immunofluorescence staining and flow cytometry. The morphology of cells was observed by an ordinary light microscope. Cell counts were performed according to cell morphology and statistical analysis was performed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The oligodendrocyte progenitor cell body was round and the bipolar protrusions were bead-like; the pre-oligodendrocyte protrusions were more than two poles, and did not bifurcate. (2) The ratios of oligodendrocyte progenitor cell morphology in the oligodontia lines were significantly higher in the 6-well plates than those in the 24-well plates and T25 flasks (P < 0.05), followed by T25 flasks and 24-well plates. Morphological ratios of pre-oligodendrocytes were significantly higher in the 24-well plates compared to the 6-well plates and T25 flasks (P < 0.01), followed by T25 flasks and 6-well plates. (3) The cells cultured in the 6-well plate had fewer dregs, and the morphology, vigor and growth were better than those of the other culture vessels. (4) According to morphological view, 6-well plates are more suitable for oligodendrocyte progenitor cell growth, and 24-well plates are more suitable for pre-oligodendrocytes growth.

Reflex tests are ordered when a particular test result indicates that additional testing should be performed according to the guidelines or the feedback process formulated by clinical consultation. The application scope of the reflex tests involves various subspecialties of laboratory medicine. The clinical application needs the support of qualified laboratory doctors, comprehensive information and financial system, clinical guidelines, and so on. Active application of reflex tests can promote the standardization of evidence-based medicine in clinical practice, save medical resources, and shorten the diagnosis and treatment time of patients.

OBJECTIVETo observe the impacts of the acupoint catgut implantation on postpartum pain of uterine contraction with qi and blood deficiency.

METHODSOne hundred and ten primiparas of natural delivery differentiated as qi and blood deficiency pattern in TCM were selected as the subjects. They were randomized into an acupoint catgut implantation group (55 cases) and a routine nursing group (55 cases). In the acupoint catgut implantation group, the catgut was implanted in Zigong (EX-CA 1), Zusanli (ST 36), Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Pishu (BL 20) and Geshu (BL 17) in 6 h after delivery; additionally, the routine post-delivery nursing was adopted. In the routine nursing group, the routine post-delivery nursing was applied simply. Visual analogue scale (VAS) and the pain relief time of uterine contraction were compared in 24 h, 48 h, 72 h and 96 h after acupoint catgut implantation between the two groups.

RESULTSVAS Scores in 24 h, 48 h, 72 h and 96 h after acupoint catgut implantation in the acupoint catgut implantation group were lower apparently than those in the routine nursing group (3.31 +/- 0.39 vs 4.31 +/- 0.29, 1.86 +/- 0.29 vs 2.66 +/- 0.25, 0.89 +/- 0.21 vs 1.59 +/- 0.24, 0.35 +/- 0.10 vs 0.69 +/- 0.13, all P < 0.05). The pain relief was achieved in (72.06 +/- 6.83) h in the acupoint catgut implantation group and was (123.42 +/- 11.12) h in the routine nursing group. The pain relief in the acupoint catgut implantation group was achieved more quickly (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONThe intervention of acupoint catgut implantation in 6 h after natural delivery in primiparas prevents effectively postpartum pain of uterine contraction.

Objective To summarize nursing experience of digestive tract fistula after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT). Methods From January 2000 to December 2010,1173 patients received liver transplantation,among whom 61 recipients got digestive tract fistula during early stage after operation.The clinical data and major nursing measures of 61 patients were studied retrospectively. Results The incidence rate of digestive tract fistula after OLT was 5.20％.The incidence rate of bile leakage,gastric fistula,duodenal fistula,jejunal fistula,ileal fistula and transverse colon fistula were 3.90％,0.42％,0.08％,0.34％,0.08％ and 0.34％,respectively.The onset time of digestive tract fistula was from 3 to 24 days post transplantation,and atypical symptoms such as fever,abdominal pain,abdominal distention,weakened enterocinesia and even septic shock were presented.And the rising or descending of white blood cells counts,rising of level of transaminase and total bilirubin in laboratory examination were simultaneously presented.Four patients died of bile leakage,and other seven patients died of intestinal fistula throughout conservative or operative treatment.The rest of 50 were discharged healthily. Conclusions The morbidity of digestive tract fistula after OLT is low,but its mortality rate is high.It is necessary to closely observe patients' condition and confirm diagnosis in early stage,in order to promote the healing of digestive tract fistula after OLT.At the same time,psychological,basic and dietary nursing should be given in order to enhance the survival rate and quality of life of patients.

Reproductive medicine is one of the most promising subjects in this century. Our country starts the education in reproductive medicine late and progress is slow.The institutions who recruit reproductive medical students adopt self-determine subjects, self-compile outline and self-compile teaching materials. As a result, the quality of teaching is affected. There is an urgent need to prepare a national high-level professional series of textbooks for reproductive medicine. The article discusses the construction of unified compiling professional series teaching materials for reproductive medicine from necessity, main ideas, compsition, principles of preparation and basic content.
