Objective:To observe the effect of mechanical vibration on the expression of microRNA-214-3p and serum interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in the broken ends of fractured bones in ovariectomized rats.Methods:Thirty 3-month-old female Wistar rats were randomly divided into a control group, a model group, and a vibration group, each of 10. An operation of ovariotomy was performed in those of the model and vibration groups to establish osteoporosis model. Five months later a model of mid femur fracture was made with animals in all the groups. Five days after their fracture, the vibration group received 20 minutes of whole-body vibration treatment at 35Hz for 5 days a week, while the control group and the model group received natural rearing without any additional intervention At 2 and 6 weeks after the operation, the Lane-Sandhu X-ray scoring system was used to evaluate the quality of fracture healing, and reverse-transcription polymerase chain reactions and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to detect miR-214-3p in the fractured bones and the serum levels of IL-1β.Results:At 2 weeks and 6 weeks after the operation the average growth score of the broken ends in the model group was significantly lower than that of the control group, while that of the vibration group was significantly higher than the model group′s average. Compared with the control group at the same time point, the average miR-214-3p content of the model and vibration groups was significantly higher 2 and 6 weeks after the surgery. Compared with the model group, the average level of miR-214-3p of the fractured ends of the vibration group was significantly lower at 6 weeks. Two and six weeks after the surgery, the average IL-1β of the model group was significantly higher than the control group′s average, and that of the vibration group was significantly lower.Conclusion:Mechanical vibration can promote osteoporotic fracture healing by inhibiting the expression of miR-214-3p and reducing the level of IL-1β at the broken ends of fractured bones.

Medical microbiology experiment is faced with many problems in online teaching. This study adopts the teaching mode of online live broadcast + operation video + virtual experiment, and make up the operation gap to some extent through operation video and virtual experiment. The mode of assessment is subjective thinking question (closely following the operation process) + experiment design + literature review (focusing on the key technology or new technology of clinical assessment that cannot be carried out due to the limitation of conditions in traditional experiments, such as mass spectrometry, fluorescence quantitative PCR, and G-test), and it is helpful to understand students' mastery of teaching objectives, and the ability of comprehensive application and innovative thinking. The student questionnaire shows that most students hold a positive attitude towards the online experimental teaching mode, and the quality of students' homework shows that most students have a good learning effect.

Objective To investigate the effect of chaihu-shugan-san ( CSS) on the behaviors and Notch1 signal pathway in depression model rats. Methods Thirty-two SD rats with similar behavioral scores were divided into control group (CON),model group (CUMS),positive control group (FLU) and interven-tion group (CSS).The depression model was established by stimulating with chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS),and the behaviors evaluation was assessed by sugar water consumption and forced depression.Im-munofluorescence was used to detect the proliferation of hippocampus neurons in rats,at the same time,real- time PCR and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression levels of each factor (Notch1,Hes1,Hes5 and Jagged1) of Notch1 signal pathway respectively. Results Compared with CON group,the percentage of sugar water preference and swimming length of rats decreased significantly in CUMS group (P<0.05 and P<0.01).Compared with CUMS group,the percentage of sugar water preference and swimming length of rats increased significantly in CSS group(P<0.05).Compared with CON group,there was a significant increase in the inactivity length of rats between CUMS group,FLU group and CSS group,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01).Compared with CUMS group,the swimming length of rats in CSS group was significantly reduced,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01).Compared with CON group((750.00±27.51)/mm2),the number of BrdU positive cells in the substratum or granulocyte lay-er of the hippocampus dentate gyrus of rats in CUMS group ((338.75±29.61)/mm2),FLU group ((545.00 ±17.73)/mm2) and CSS group ((529.38±13.74)/mm2) was significantly reduced(P<0.01).Compared with CUMS group ((338.75±29.61)/mm2),there was a significant increase in the number of BrdU positive cells in the substratum or granulocyte layer of the hippocampus dentate gyrus of rats in CSS group ((529.38 ±13.74)/mm2),and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01).Compared with CON group,the mRNA and protein expression levels of Notch1,Hes1,Hes5,and Jagged1 in the hippocampus of rats in CUMS group were significantly reduced(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Compared with CUMS group,the mRNA and protein ex-pression levels of Notch1,Hes1,Hes5 and Jagged1 in the hippocampus of rats in FLU group and CSS group were significantly increased,and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclu-sion Notch1 signal pathway may be related to the obstacle during the hippocampus nerve regenerating in the model rat under chronic unpredictable mild stress.CSS may play an anti-depressant role by regulating Notchl to improve hippocampus nerve regeneration.

According to the data released by the Civil Aviation Administration of China in 2020, there are more than 60000 pilots and more than 100000 flight attendants in China working with certificates in various airlines. The health of these aircrew is the basis for maintaining and continuing the smooth development of civil aviation. Aircrew are exposed to cosmic radiation at high altitudes. However, because the types of cosmic radiation are complex, changeable, and difficult to measure accurately, there is no definite conclusion as to whether it has any effect on the health of aircrew. This paper introduced the impacts of cosmic radiation on aircrew, reviewed the estimation of cosmic radiation dose at home and abroad, and summarized the cosmic radiation dose measurement methods and their limitations. It also pointed out the shortcomings of existing occupational health management of aircrew and put forward new suggestions on strengthening the health management of radiation hazards for aircrew.
