1.Effects of pentoxifylline on expression of uncoupling protein 2 of hepatic mitochondria in rats with nonalcoholic fatty liver
Chinese Journal of Geriatrics 2010;29(11):937-939
Objective To investigate the effects of pentoxifylline (PTX) on the expression of uncoupling protein 2 (UCP-2) of hepatic mitochondria in rats with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups (each n = 20): normal control group, experiment group and treatment group. The rats in normal control group were given a normal feed. The rats in experiment and treatment groups were given fat-rich feed. Furthermore, the rats in treatment group were given PTX after 4 weeks in fat-rich diet feeding. The expression of UCP-2 in the liver was detected by immunohistochemistry and semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Results The hepatic expression of UCP2 mRNA was higher in experiment group (4.0±0.3) than in normal control group (1.2±0.1). The hepatic expression of UCP2 mRNA was higher in treatment group (3.0±0.2) than in normal control group, but the hepatic expression of UCP2 mRNA was lower in treatment group than in experiment group (F = 160. 67, P< 0. 01). Conclusions The UCP-2 mRNA is expressed in livers of NAFLD, pentoxifylline plays an important role in the reduction of expression of UCP-2 mRNA in lives of NAFLD.

Chinese Journal of Practical Nursing 2008;24(18):16-18
Objective We discussed the application and clinical effect of serf nursing education in patients with infectious tuberculosis. Methods We divided 140 patients with infectious tuberculosis into the test group and the control group with 70 cases in each group. The control group adopted health education. The test group received individual and selective self nursing education, including serf mastering of tuberculosis, self monitoring of illness, completion of ther therapeutic process by oneself, serf management of diet, self regulation andf control of motion and education of self nursing technique. The intervention continued for 3 months. Pulmonary tuberculosis specific knowledge inventory, therapeutic compliance investigation inventory and general questionnaire on living (GQOL) were adopted in the two groups and the results were compared. Results The therapeutic compliance and life quality of the test group were evidently higher than those of the control group after self nursing education (P<0.01). The mastering of tuberculosis knowledge of the test group was also superior than that of the control group (P<0.01). Conclusions Self nursing education could increase the therapeutic compliance as well as the life quality of patients.
