Objective:To explore the feasibility of using Hirsch index(H index) to evaluate the performance of academic papers published by medical talents.Methods:67 medical talents of Wuxi People′s Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University were enrolled in the study. The numbers of papers published and citations of these talents which have been included by PubMed, Chinese Citation Database, CNKI, Wanfang, and Baidu Scholar. The H value of these talents was calculated according to the list method proposed by Rousseau R. The H index was compared with the traditional evaluation indexes of scientific research performance, such as the number of papers published, the total number of citations and the average number of citations. Pearson test was used to explore the correlation between H index and traditional evaluation index.Results:The H value of 67 talents ranged from 1 to 14. Pearson test showed that the H index was significantly correlated with the total number of papers, the total number of citations and the average number of citations at the level of 0.01, and their Pearson value was 0.746, 0.932, and 0.648 respectively.Conclusions:As a new scientific research performance evaluation system, the H index is recommended in the evaluation of medical personnel, but it needs further and sustained optimization in terms of database inclusion timespan, research work timespan, and authors ranking limit among others.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of Jinkoubao on oral ulcer in rabbits and its action mechanism.Methods Among 60 SPF NewZealand rabbits,6 cases were randomly selected for the ulcer model identification,and the rest was randomly and equally divided into 3 groups:the control group (NC group),normal saline drug film group (NS group) and Jinkoubao film group (JK group).The rabbit model of oral ulcer was constructed by applying 40 % glacial acetic acid to burn rabbit oral mucosa for duplicating the oral ulcer model.of the change situation of oral ulcer was observed on the same day for constructing model,on 3,5,7 d after medication.The EGF level in oral mucosal tissue was detected by using RT-PCR and the local histopatho1ogical changes in oral ulcer was observed by using HE staining method.Results Compared with the NS group,the ulcer area on 3,5,7 d after medication in the JK group was significantly deceased (P<0.01).Compared with the NS group,the EGF level in oral buccal mucosal tissue in the NS group and JK group was markedly increased (P<0.01).But the EGF level increase in the JK group was faster than that in the NS group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).The HE staining section of rabbit oral ulcer on 3,5,7 d after medication showed that the inflammatory cells decrease in the JK group was more obvious than that in the NS group,fibroblasts proliferation was obvious and epithelial hyperplasia was good.Conclusion Jinkoubao could greatly improve the symptoms of oral ulcer in rabbits and promotes its healing,which is possible to strengthen the repair capacity of oral ulcer by regulating the EGF level.

Aim To express the fusion protein hTNFα -hPgnK5 in E.Coli and to identify its activity. Methods The hTNFα -hPgnK5 gene express vector was constructed and the fusion protein was expressed in E.coli. The activity of fusion protein to inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells or angioendothelial cells in vitro was determined by MTT. Results Fusion protein hTNFα -hPgnK5 possessed immunoactivity in Western blot analysis and could inhibit proliferation of tumor cells or angioendothelial cells in vitro test. Conclusion The hTNFα gene and hPgnk5 gene can be coexpressed in prokaryotic system and expression products can inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells or angioendothelial cells in vitro.

Objective To investigate and evaluate the nutrition status in serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D[25(OH)D]levels of 0~12 years old children in Xi'an.Methods A total of 2 670 patients aged 0~12 years old who underwent routine physical examinations in Children's Health Department of the Second Hospital of Air Force Medical University were selected from March 2020 to July 2023,and the 25(OH)D data of these patients were conducted in retrospective analysis.The nutritional status of vitamin D in these children of different genders,ages and seasons were also analyzed.Results ①This study included 2 670 children aged 0~12 years old in Xi'an,with the average level of serum 25(OH)D was 40.80±18.00 ng/ml.Among them,38 cases(1.42%)had serum 25(OH)D deficiency,333 cases(12.47%)had serum 25(OH)D insufficience,and 2 299 cases(86.11%)had sufficient serum 25(OH)D.②There was a statistically significant difference in serum 25(OH)D levels among different age groups(H=1 524.23,P=0.000).The group aged 1~<4 has the highest value of 52.51±13.57 ng/ml,while the group aged 8~12 has the lowest value of 21.65±6.75 ng/ml.③The levels of serum 25(OH)D in summer(39.44±17.46 ng/ml)were lower than those in spring(41.96±17.76 ng/ml)and autumn(42.71±18.15 ng/ml),with statistical significant differences(Z=101.57,-134.06,all P<0.01).However,the deficiency and inadequate rate of serum 25(OH)D in winter(18.95%)was higher than those in spring,summer and autumn(13.52%,12.75%,12.36%),with statistical significant differences(χ2=14.32,P=0.026).④There was no statistically significant difference in serum 25(OH)D levels between genders(H=0.933,P=0.351).However,the deficiency and inadequate rate of serum 25(OH)D in boys(12.51%)was lower than that in girls(15.46%),and the difference was statistically significant(χ2=9.257,P=0.010).Conclusion The nutritional status of serum 25(OH)D in children aged 0~12 years in Xi'an area is comparatively fine,and it is necessary to strengthen the intake and supplementation of vitamin D in over 3 years old children.
