Objective To study the influence of different bed rest time on orthostatic hypotension,and explore a feasible and appropriate bed rest time for elderly patients after hemodialysis.Methods 58 elderly patients with regular hemodialysis were selected from January 2011 to May 2012.By self-control,they were divided into three groups according to different bed rest time:T0 group who got up immediately after the hemodialysis,T10 group who got up after 10-minute bed rest,T20 group who got up after 20-minute bed rest.The incidence of orthostatic hypotension was observed and compared between three groups.Results Compared to T0 group,the incidence of orthostatic hypotension in T10 and T20 groups was significantly reduced.However,no difference was seen between T10 and T20 groups.The acceptability rate in T10 group was 67.24％,higher than 17.24％ of the T20 group.Conclusions Elderly hemodialysis patients should continue to lie down for at least 10 minutes after hemodialysis,and then slowly get up,this measure can reduce the occurrence of orthostatic hypotension.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy of acupoint application of antiemetic cream in the treatment of che-motherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. METHODS:90 cases of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)(stage Ⅱ to Ⅲ)treated by chemotherapy(taxol+cisplatin)were randomly divided into antiemetic cream group,Weifuan group and control group,with 30 cas-es in each groupby drawing lots. Control group was given intravenous injection of ondansetron hydrochloride 8 mg 30 min before chemotherapy;antiemetic cream group was additionally given acupoint application of antiemetic cream 30 min before medication on first-forth day on the basis of control group;Weifuan group was additionally given acupoint injection of metoclopramide(brand name:Weifuan) 30 min before medication on first-forth day on the basis of control group. The clinical efficacy of 3 groups were observed during and 3 days after chemotherapy. RESULTS:After chemotherapy,the total control rates of antiemetic cream group (93.33%)and Weifuan group(90.00%)were apparently higher than the control group(66.67%),with statistical significance(P<0.01 or P<0.05);The total effective rates of TCM syndrome in antiemetic cream group (90.00%) and Weifuan group(83.33%) were apparently higher than in control group(60.00%),with statistical significance(P<0.01 or P<0.05). Therapeutic efficacy of antiemetic cream group was similar to Weifuan group,without any statistical significance(P>0.05). However,8 patients had obvi-ously pain at the injection site in Weifuan group,but tolerated to the drugs basically. CONCLUSIONS:The acupoint application of antiemetic cream combined with intravenous injection of ondansetron is effective and easy to operate in the treatment of nausea and vomiting induced by chemotherapy for stage Ⅱ to Ⅲ of NSCLC without pain,scar and sequela,and easy to be accepted by patients.

Objective:To discuss the inhibitory effect of diosmetin(DIO)on the ferroptosis induced by the glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)inhibitor(1S,3R)-RSL3(RSL3)in spermatocytes GC-2 of the mice,and to clarify the mechanism.Methods:The GC-2 cells were divided into control group,RSL3 group,RSL3+0.8 nmol·L-1 DIO group,RSL3+4.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group,RSL3+20.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group,and RSL3+ferroptosis inhibitor Ferrostain-1(Fer-1)group(200 nmol·L-1 Fer-1).The cells were treated with 0,1,5,10,50,100,500,and 1 000 nmol·L-1 RSL3 solutions,and 0,0.5,0.1,1.0,5.0,10.0,and 50.0 μmol·L-1 DIO solutions,respectively.Additionally,the GC-2 cells were divided into blank group,model group,and treatment group.The GC-2 cells in treatment group were further divided into 0.8,4.0,and 20.0 nmol·L-1 DIO groups,as well as RSL3+0.8 nmol·L-1 DIO group,RSL3+4.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group,and RSL3+20.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group.MTT method was used to detect the survival rates of the GC-2 cells in various groups.The GC-2 cells were treated with 100 nmol·L-1 RSL3 for 0,6,12,24,36,and 48 h;Western blotting method was used to detect the expression levels of ferroptosis-related proteins in the GC-2 cells in various groups;kits were used to detect the activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD),levels of malondialdehyde(MDA),and ratios of glutathione(GSH)to glutathione disulfide(GSSG)in the GC-2 cells in various groups;immunofluorescence method was used to detect the fluorescence intensities of acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4(ACSL4)protein in the GC-2 cells in various groups.Results:The MTT method results showed that compared with 0 nmol·L-1 RSL3 group,the survival rates of the GC-2 cells in 50,100,500,and 1 000 nmol·L-1 RSL3 groups were significantly decreased(P<0.01);compared with 0 μmol·L-1 DIO group,the survival rates of the GC-2 cells in 0.5,1.0,5.0,10.0,and 50.0 μmol·L-1 DIO groups were significantly decreased(P<0.01),and 100 nmol·L-1 RSL3 with DIO concentration<0.1 μmol·L-1 were selected for the subsequent experiments.Compared with blank group,the survival rates of the GC-2 cells in model group was significantly decreased(P<0.01);compared with model group,the survival rates of the GC-2 cells in RSL3+20.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group was significantly increased(P<0.01).The Western blotting results showed that compared with 0 h,the expression level of GPX4 protein in the GC-2 cells was significantly decreased after treated with RSL3 for 6 h(P<0.01),and the expression level of HO-1 protein was significantly increased after treated with RSL3 for 12 h(P<0.05);after treated with RSL3 for 12 h,the expression levels of GPX4 and FTH1 proteins were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01);after treated with RSL3 for 24 h,the expression levels of GPX4 and HO-1 proteins were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01);after treated with RSL3 for 36 and 48 h,the expression levels of HO-1 protein were significantly decreased(P<0.01).Therefore,100 nmol·L-1 RSL3 and for 12 h were selected as the experimental condition for the subsequent experiments.Compared with control group,the MDA level in the GC-2 cells in RSL3 group was significantly increased(P<0.01),and the SOD activity and GSH/GSSG ratio were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with RSL3 group,the SOD activities in the cells in RSL3+0.8 nmol·L-1 DIO group,RSL3+4.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group,RSL3+20.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group,and RSL3+Fer-1 group were significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).The MDA levels in the cells in RSL3+20.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group and RSL3+Fer-1 group were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and the GSH/GSSG ratio in the cells in RSL3+4.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group,RSL3+20.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group,and RSL3+Fer-1 group were significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).The immunofluorescence observation results showed that compared with control group,the fluorescence intensity of ACSL4 protein in the GC-2 cells in RSL3 group was significantly increased;compared with RSL3 group,the fluorescence intensities of ACSL4 protein in the cells in RSL3+0.8 nmol·L-1 DIO group,RSL3+4.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group,RSL3+20.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group,and RSL3+Fer-1 group were significantly decreased.The Western blotting results showed that compared with control group,the expression level of HO-1 protein in the cells in RSL3 group was increased(P<0.05),and the expression levels of GPX4 and FTH1 proteins were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01);compared with RSL3 group,the expression levels of HO-1 protein in the cells in RSL3+0.8 nmol·L-1 DIO group,RSL3+4.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group,RSL3+20.0 nmol·L-1 DIO group,and RSL3+Fer-1 group were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and the expression levels of GPX4 and FTH1 proteins were significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion:DIO can alleviate the RSL3-induced ferroptosis in the GC-2 spermatocytes of the mice,and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of HO-1 protein expression and the upregulation of expressions of GPX4 and FTH1 proteins.

Radiopharmaceuticals play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases， malignant tumors， central nervous system diseases， and other diseases. Under the urgent need for clinical diagnosis and treatment as well as medical development， the clinical research of radiopharmaceuticals has become a hotspot in international research. By analyzing the current situation of clinical research on radiopharmaceuticals in Europe， America， and China， the ethical issues of clinical research on radiopharmaceuticals were elaborated from four aspects， including lack of relevant laws and regulations， a higher risk of radiopharmaceuticals， dilemmas in ethical review， and insufficient radiation protection. Response principles and measures were proposed from four aspects， including improving regulations and policies， enhancing radiological protection for all parties involved in the research， strengthening ethical review， and reinforcing the training of relevant personnel， to enhance the quality and level of clinical research on radiopharmaceuticals.
