Aiming at the weakness of the medical graduate students' ideological and political education,we developed the new mode via investigation and surveying,allowing for the medical characteristics. We suggested that we should bring into full play the tutors and their groups function and excavate the connotation of groups’ morality education on the basis of the scientific research groups to develop the medical students' ideological and political education.

Objective To observe the effect of rhubarb enema on serum level of high mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1) in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods A total of 60 cases of patients with SAP in our hospital were collected from October 2014 to October 2016,and were randomly divided into the observation group and control group (30 cases in each group).Serum levels of HMGB1 were dynamically detected on the 1st,3rd and 5th day after admission.The acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) was conducted.The recovery time of gastrointestinal function and time for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) were observed.Results On the 1st day after admission,no statistically significant difference was found in serum level of HMGB1 between the two groups (P＞0.05).The serum level of HMGB1 in the observation group was obviously decreased on the 5th day after admission,which was lower than that in the control group,there was statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).In the observation group,the value of difference between serum level of HMGB1 on the 1st day after admission and that on the 3rd day after admission was significantly negatively related with the APACHE Ⅱ score on the 3rd day after admission(r=-0.604,P＜0.05).In the observation group,the remission time of abdominal pain and abdominal distension,first time of exhaust and defecation and time for CRRT were significantly shorter than those in the control group,there were statistically significant differences (P＜0.05).Conclusion Rhubarb could improvesymptoms and prognosis of patients with SAP through effectively inhibit the expression of HMGB1.

Objective To investigate the changes of serum cytokines and explore their role in infants with cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection. Methods We recruited 41 positive CMV-IgM plus normal ALT infants (other disease group), 30 positive CMV-IgM plus abnormal ALT infants (hepatitis group) and 30 healthy infants (control group) in the study. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-?(TNF-?), interferon-?(IFN-?) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) in serum were measured with ELISA. The association between TNF-? and ALT was analyzed. Results The levels of TNF-?, IFN-?, IL-4 were higher, and IFN-?/IL-4 was significantly lower in the two CMV infection groups than the control group. Compared with other disease group, the changes of TNF-?, IL-4, and IFN-?/IL-4 showed significance in hepatitis group. The level of TNF-? showed a positive association with ALT in hepatitis group(r=0.76,P

AIM: To investigate the molecular mechanism of Epstein-Barr virus encoded latent membrane protein 1 regulated cellular proliferation in nasopharyngeal epithelial cells. METHODS: The nasopharyngeal epithelial cells NP69 were infected with RV-pLNSX (the empty vector) and RV-LMP1 retroviruses, respectively. Therefore, the NP69-pLNSX and NP69-LMP1 cell lines were established. Sequentially, cellular proliferation of NP69-pLNSX and NP69-LMP1 cells was compared to draw the cellular growth curve. The experiments of plate clone formation and forming of soft agar colony were conducted. Meanwhile, the differential expression of proteins were identified between NP69-pLNSX and NP69-LMP1 cell lines by proteomic methods, and the expression levels of partial identified proteins were verified. RESULTS: (1) LMP1 was able to accelerate cellular proliferation of nasopharyngeal epithelial cell NP69 (n=3, P<0.05). (2) Twenty two proteins (9 up-and 13 down-regulated) of LMP1 mediated regulation were identified from infected NP69 cell lines, and the differential expression of partial identified proteins was confirmed by Western blotting and fluorescent real-time quantitative RT-PCR. CONCLUSION: LMP1 probably mediates the regulation of vimentin protein and keratin 19 protein expression to promote cellular proliferation in NP69 cells.

Objective To investigate the effects of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7nAChR) on CD11b, IL-1β, IL-18 and TNF-α in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) mice. Methods A total of 40 healthy and clean male Balb/C mice (6 weeks old) were randomly divided into normal group (N group), normal saline control group (NS group), ARDS group (A group), and ARDS mice treated with nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist after bilateral cervical vagotomy group (J group), with 10 mice in each group. The right lung structure of mice in each group was observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, the lung tissue wet weight/body weight ratio (LWW/DW ratio) was detected, and the percentage of CD11b in the alveolar lavage fluid of mice was detected by flow cytometry. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression of IL-1β mRNA, IL-18 mRNA and TNF-α mRNA in left lung tissue. Serum IL-18 was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and double antibody sandwich method. Results HE staining of the right lung of mice in group N and NS showed normal structure, while the lung interstitial of mice in group A showed a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrated, alveolar wall thickened, alveolar structure destroyed and alveolar cavity fused. The alveolar structure of mice in group J was intact, with a little damage and alveolar cavity. The percentage of CD11b in alveolar lavage fluid in group A was higher than that in the other three groups, and the difference was statistically significant compared with group N, NS and J, respectively (P<0.05). The expressions of IL-1β mRNA, IL-18 mRNA and TNF-α mRNA in the left lung of mice in group J were statistically significant compared with those in group N, NS and A (P<0.05), and the serum IL-18 level of mice in group A was higher than that in the other three groups, and the differences were statistically significant compared with groups N, NS and J, respectively (P<0.05). Conclusions Activation of α7nAChR can directly inhibit the release of CD11b in lung tissue and reduce the accumulation of inflammatory factors. Simultaneously, it can also directly inhibit the expression of IL-β1 mRNA, IL-18 mRNA and TNF-α mRNA in lung tissue and the release of IL-18, thus inhibiting the inflammatory response of ARDS and alleviating the pathological changes of ARDS.

Objective To analysis the clinical outcome at discharge and its risk factors of extremely preterm infants.Method To retrospectively analysis the clinical outcome at discharge and it's risk factors of extremely preterm infants (less than 28 weeks gestation) admitted from September 2008 to August 2014 in our Hospital.Result A total of 179 cases were enrolled.Survival rate was 59.2％ (106/179).Unfavorable outcome rate was 74.3％ (133/179),among them 73 cases died.The top five causes of death were severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) (28 cases),Ⅲ ～ Ⅳ o intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) (19 cases),sepsis (16 cases) and necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) (6 cases).Among the 60 survivals with unfavorable outcomes,35 cases had either severe neurologic or ophthalmological sequela,and 25 cases had severe pulmonary sequela.Univariate analysis showed that,comparing with improved group,unfavorable outcome group had higher rates of not receiving prenatal steroids,placental abruption,male,small for gestation age,resuscitation with chest compression,admission age older than 72 hour,severe respiratory distress syndrome (RDS),without pulmonary surfactant (PS) usage,mechanical ventilation beyond 2 weeks and sepsis (P ＜ 0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that those without prenatal steroids (OR =9.402,P =0.002),small for gestational age (OR =8.271,P =0.018),resuscitation with chest compression (OR =6.325,P =0.023),admission age older than 72 hour (OR =4.174,P =0.028) were independent risk factors for unfavorable outcome of extremely premature at discharge.Conclusion Extremely preterm infants have a higher rate of unfavorable outcome at discharge.Avoid small for gestational age,transfer properly and in time both in utero and after birth,and conduct prenatal steroids could improve their clinical outcome at discharge.

Objective To investigate the molecule phenotype, epidemiology, and resistance genes of the New Delhi metallo- β-lactamase-1 ( NDM-1 ) producing Klebsiella pneumoniae ( K. pneumoniae ) . Methods Retrospective study was made on one hundred and ten non-repetitive carbepenem-resistant K. pneumoniae clinical isolated strains, which were collected from January 2011 to December 2012 in our hospital. The minimal inhibitory concentrations ( MICs ) of antibiotics were tested by the GN13 cards of BioMerieux Company. Modified Hodge test were used for the detection of carbapenemases. The blaNDM-1 encoding gene and linkage of ISAba125-NDM were detected by PCR method. The purified PCR products were cloned and sequenced. The homology of the K. pneumoniae were analyzed by the multilocus sequence typing ( MLST ) . Plasmid conjugation experiment and curing method were used to study the transfer of bacterial resistance. The Fisher′s exact probability test was used to compare the data. Results 13% NDM-1-producing K. pneumoniae were detected and confirmed as blaNDM-1 by sequencing (14/110). The resistance rates of the 14 NDM-1-producing K. pneumoniae strains to imipenem, meropenem, ertapenem, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, amikacin, and aztreonam were 14/14, 14/14, 13/14, 10/14, 9/14, 5/14, and 11/14. Meanwhile, the positive rate of ISAba125-NDM linkage of those 14 NDM-1-producing K. pneumoniae strains was 14/14. The E. coli J53 transconjugants, whose MICs of imipenem, meropenem, and ertapenem were increased by 4 to 64 times, were blaNDM-1 gene and ISAba125-NDM linkage positive. In addition, it was showed that the blaNDM-1 gene and ISAba125-NDM linkage were located on a plasmid with a size of approximately 65 000 bp. Conclusions The NDM-1 producing K. pneumoniae strains in this study were resistant to many commonly used antibiotics, however, the resistance rate to aminoglycoside and aztreonam were relatively low. The carbapenemase-resistant genotype spread by blaNDM-1 carried plasmid. Attention should be paid to its easily transmissible feature among the strains in clinic. The insertion sequence ISAba125 may be involved in the blaNDM-1 gene mediated carbapenemase-resistant genotype.
