Objective: To prepare valved tricuspid stent and to discuss the techniques of transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement in vitro. Methods: We designed a self-expandable stent made of super-elastic Ni-Ti shape memory alloy. The stent was composed of double disks with tubular linkage between them. A valvular ring made of nitinol wire was sutured on the tubular part. Fresh sheep pericardium was decellularized, treated with 0.6% glutaraldehyde solution for 48 h and then sutured on the valvular ring. Through a 16-French sheath positioned in the right ventricle of isolated sheep heart via vena cava, the device was delivered into the tricuspid valve. When the right ventricle disk was deployed, it was applied to the tricuspid annulus by pulling back the external sheath. Then the waist and the right atrial disk were deployed in the annulus and right atrium, respectively, by pulling the sheath. Thus the whole device was deployed in the native tricuspid. Water was injected into the right ventricle to test the competence of the prosthetic heart valves. Results: The prepared valved tricuspid stent could be stably positioned at the native valves. There was no stent migration when it was repeatedly pulled. The two disks sandwiched the native tricuspid valve with one disk lying in the right ventricle and the other one in the right atrium. The prosthetic heart valves showed satisfactory function without structure damage. Conclusion: This self-expandable stent is well designed and can be safely implanted in the tricuspid valve position via transcatheter approach; and the function of the stent is satisfactory.

Objective To analyze the changes of distribution and drug resistance of isolated pathogens for ventilator-associated-pneumonia (VAP) in seven intensive care units from January 2013 to December 2015,so that provides information for clinical antibiotic treatment.Methods Collected the patient records diagnosed with VAP to get the distribution and drug resistance of isolated pathogens for VAP in ICU from January 2013 to December 2015.Compared the distribution of isolated pathogens for VAP among three year with Chi-square tests,and compared the drug resistance of main isolated pathogens with Nonparametric tests.Results 177 patients were diagnosed with VAP from January 2013 to December 2015.A total of 192 strains of pathogens were isolated from the VAP patients in ICU.Among which the gram-negative bacteria were dominant.It took up 90.6％.There was no significant statistical difference for the distribution of pathogens (x2 =2.372,P=0.668＞0.05).Analyzed the drug resistance rate and trends for the primary pathogens like Acinetobacter Bauman,Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus,among which,the drug resistance of Acinetobacter Bauman from 2013 to 2015 made statistical difference.Conclusion The major pathogen isolated from VAP patients was gram-negative bacteria from January 2013 to December 2015,especially for Acinetobacter Bauman.Drug resistance of Acinetobacter Bauman was serious.Should administrated appropriate to treat the VAP infection resulted from Acinetobacter Bauman.

Objective Studying information disclosure at China' s public hospitals and recommending on information disclosure policies.Methods Collecting and analyzing the websites of 80 public hospitals in five main Chinese cities (Beijing,Shanghai,etc.).Results Information disclosure by these hospitals is found to be identical,with a slight difference in information publicity.By percentage,the information disclosure of hospital profile,department navigation,specialists characteristics,hospital news,health education,and doctor-seeking guidance,is 100.0％,98.3％,95.0％,93.3％,90.0％and 88.3％respectively.The disclosure is found to be lack of general planning,objectivity,timeliness and sufficiency.ConclusionEstablishing the information disclosure system based on mandatory information disclosure,stipulating the content,approach and timing for public hospitals information disclosure.

Primer pair was designed as self-template during the amplification by PCR. It’s an easy way to construct a series of multi-copy genes. This method can be available for the amplification of DNA probes and the development of vaccines. It’s considered as a convenient and simple method for the cloning of multi-copy genes.

Objective To study the bacteriostatic activity and stability of pine bark Oligomeric Proantho Cyanidins. Methods By the K-B disk diffusion method, spoilage bacteria as experiment strains, to study the inhibition effects of the pine bark Oligomeric Proantho Cyanidins and the antimicrobial stability under certain temperature, pH, and UV exposure time. Results Pine bark Oligomeric Proantho Cyanidins had significant inhibitory effect on Gram positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus Sukatilis), which had better inhibition effects in the media neutral, but temperature and UV had little influence on the antimicrobial effects. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of pine bark Oligomeric Proantho Cyanidins against Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus Sukatilis were 12.5 and 6.25 mg/mL, respective. However, on Gram negative bacteria(Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) there was no obvious inhibition effects. Conclusion The pine bark Oligomeric Proantho Cyanidins has significant inhibitory effect on Gram positive bacteria, the inhibitory effect is stronger in the range of pH 6-7 , and the temperature and UV had a little effect on its antibacterial action, which means that the antibacterial action of pine bark Oligomeric Proantho Cyanidins had good stability.

In order to investigate the effect of Polo-like kinase-1 (Plk1) depletion on cell cycle progression and cell growth in lung cancer cells, a recombinant plasmid containing antisense RNA targeting Plk1 (pcDNA3-Plk1) was transfected into A549 cells by lipofectine. RT-PCR and Western-blot were used to detect the Plk1 gene expression. Cell proliferation was evaluated by direct cell counting and bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) labeling. Cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were examined by flow cytometry, and the inhibition rate (IR) by vinorebline (NVB) was determined by MTT assay. The results showed that after transfection of pcDNA3-Plk1 into A549 cells, the expression levels of Plk1 mRNA and protein were greatly decreased. In pcDNA3-Plk1 transfected groups, abnormal morphological changes of cells and growth inhibition were observed, and the BrdU labeling index was significantly lower than in the control groups (P<0.05). Cells in pcDNA3-Plk1 transfected groups were arresed in G2/M phase and apoptosis was detectable 72 h post transfection. IR induced by vinorebline in pcDNA3-Plk1 transfected groups was significantly higher than in other groups. These data suggested that antisense RNA targeting Plk1 could suppress the Plk1 expression, and therefore, significantly inhibit cell proliferation and induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Moreover, it sensitized lung cancer cells to chemotherapy.
