This article is to report our observation of the therapeutic effect of antihista-mine and anti-inflammation drugs on the early pulmonary edema in respiratory burns. Thirty-two dogs were employed in the experiment and divided into 4 groups: Group Ⅰconsisted of 8 dogs which were inflicted with respiratory tract burns without any treatment and served as the control.Group Ⅱ: 8 animals received H1H2 receptor antagonists of benadryl and cime-tidine after the burns.Group Ⅲ: 8 animals were treated with indomethacin after the burns.Group Ⅳ: 8 animals were treated with dexamethasome after the burns.It was found that under conventional light microscope the interstitial pulmonary edema in GroupⅡ was the mildest and the alveolar edema in both Groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ was milder than in the other two. The difference between Groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ was statistically significant(P

The DNA content was quantitively determined in 30 specimens of colorectal carcinoma including 15 cases of tubular adenocarcinoma (TAC.5 cases each of grade Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ respectively) ,5 cases of papillary adenocarcinoma (PAO.5 cases of mucoid adenocarcinoma (MAC) and 5 cases of signet-ring cell carcinoma (SCO),and 5 specimens of norma! colomic nucosa with mi-crospectro-photometry.The average DNA contents of different tissues were as follows:Normal colonic mucosa:13.54The difference of DNA contents of various types of carcinoma with normal mucosa,and that of TAC-Ⅰ and SCC with TAC-Ⅲ,PAC and MAC was statistically very significant (P

Objective To study the effect of incentive and target assessment mechanism on the operation and manage-ment efficiency of nurse-led clinics.Methods 45 cases in the nurse-led clinic managed by the target assessment mechanism in our hospital from June to December 2021 were selected as the control group,and 46 cases managed by the incentive joint target assessment mechanism in our hospital from February to July 2022 were selected as the observation group.The annual workload,doctors'recognition of nurses,nursing quality and self-efficacy scale(GSES)scores before and after intervention were compared between the two groups,and the satisfaction of nurses in charge of patients was compared between the two groups.Results Be-fore intervention,there was no difference in the annual workload between the two groups(P＞0.05).After intervention,the an-nual workload of the two groups increased,and the observation group was higher than the control group(P＜0.05).Before inter-vention,there was no difference in the scores of recognition degree between the two groups(P＞0.05).After intervention,the scores of communication ability,quality management ability,emergency ability,independent work ability and specialist problem solving ability of the two groups increased,and the observation group was higher than the control group(P＜0.05).Before inter-vention,there was no difference in nursing quality score between the two groups(P＞0.05).After intervention,the quality of nursing cases,the quality of patient safety management,the quality of post work and the total mean score of the two groups were increased,and the observation group was higher than the control group(P＜0.05).Before intervention,there was no difference in GSES scores between the two groups(P＞0.05).After intervention,GSES scores of the two groups increased,and the obser-vation group was higher than the control group(P＜0.05).The total satisfaction rate of patients in observation group was 96.25% ,higher than 86.25% in control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The incentive and target assessment mechanism can significantly improve nurses'annual workload and nursing quality,doctors'recognition of nurses and patients'satisfaction with nursing.

Objective : To investigate the effects of hypoxia , high glucose single factor and hypoxia high glucose compound factors on the pyroptosis of rat glomerular podocytes . Methods : Rat glomerular podocytes were cultured in vitro and randomly divided into control group , high glucose group , hypoxia group and hypoxia high glucose group , EdU method was used to detect the cell proliferation , transmission electron microscope was used to observe the morphology and size changes of nucleus and mitochondria , and Western blot was used to detect pyroptosis related proteins nucleotide⁃binding oligomerization domain⁃like receptor protein 3(NLRP3) , Cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase⁃1(Caspase⁃1) , gasdermin( GSDMD) and inflammatory factor pro⁃interleukin⁃1β( Pro⁃IL⁃1β) , interleukin(IL) Ⅳ1β , IL⁃18 . The effect of hypoxia and high glucose on the pyroptosis of rat glomerular podocytes was analyzed . Results : EdU results showed that hypoxia and high glucose inhibited the proliferation ability of rat glomerlar podocytes (P < 0. 05) . The results of transmission electron microscopy suggested that hypoxia and high glucose promoted the occurrence of pyroptosis of rat glomerular podocytes . Western blot showed that hypoxia and high glucose promoted pyroptosis of rat glomerular podocytes , and increased the expression of pyroptosis related proteins NLRP3 , Caspase⁃1 and GSDMD , among which the expression of pyroptosis protein increased most significantly in hypoxia and high glucose group (P < 0. 05) . At the same time , it also increased the expression of pro⁃inflammatory factor Pro⁃IL⁃1β , IL⁃1β and IL⁃18 (P < 0. 05) . Conclusion hypoxia and high glucose can induce pyroptosis of rat glomerular podocytes , one of the mechanisms may be through affecting NLRP3 ⁃Caspase⁃1 ⁃GSDMD and its down⁃ stream inflammatory factors .

OBJECTIVETo synthesize compounds based on imidazo-fused heterocycles and evaluate their anti-tumor activity against breast cancer.

METHODSThe compounds 1a-1e, 2a and 2b were synthesized by aerobic copper-catalyzed halocyclization of methyl N-heteroaromatics with aliphatic amines; 3a and 3b were generated by sonogashira reaction and Suzuki reaction, respectively; the compounds 4a-4c were obtained by Buchwald-Hartwig reaction of the corresponding amines and 1e. The effects of these compounds against breast cancer cells and their nephrotoxicity were determined using MTT assay. Annexin VFITC/PI apoptosis detection kit was used to assess the apoptosis-inducing effects of these compounds in breast cancer cells. With normal saline as the control, the safety and anti-tumor activity of the compound 2a (daily dose of 10 mg/kg for 14 days) was tested in a mouse model bearing human breast cancer xenografts.

RESULTSThe compounds 2a, 4a, 4b and 4c all showed obvious anti-tumor activities. Among these compounds, 2a showed the most potent anti-tumor effect against breast cancer cells with an IC of 9.77 ± 2.32 μmol/L, similar to that of cisplatin (IC=8.96 ± 2.35 μmol/L); 2a also showed a slightly lower nephrotoxicity than cisplatin, and their CC was 10.79±0.87 μmol/L and 8.45±0.68 μmol/L, respectively. 2a obviously promoted apoptosis of breast cancer cells and caused a moderate suppression of the breast cancer growth in the tumor-bearing mouse models without producing serious adverse effects.

CONCLUSIONSFour compounds synthesized based on imidazo-fused heterocycles have anti-tumor activities against breast cancer. The compound 2a is capable of dose-dependently promoting apoptosis of breast cancer cells and has a good safety and a moderate efficacy for suppressing tumor growth in mouse models bearing human breast cancer xenografts.
