Objective To investigate the function of metalloproteinase 2 (MMP 2) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP 2) in neonatal acute lung injury(ALI) caused by LPS in rats. Methods Eighty eight newborn rats of 7 days were randomly divided into eight groups: control, 0.5 h, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 16 h, 24 h after LPS was injected. The changes of lung pathology in newborn rats were observed and the changes of MMP 2 and TIMP 2 expression were measured by immunohistochemistry and RT PCR. Results Pulmonary hemorrhage was seen in newborn rats caused by LPS. The expression of MMP 2 mRNA and protein were 0.523?0.030 and 126.20?17.98; The expression of MMP 2 mRNA increased and the highest level was at 4 h(0.826?0.567, t=3.77, P

ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between psychologic status and personality characteristics of certain recruits.Methods168 recruits were surveyed by Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90) and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ).ResultsIn 168 recruits, the factorial scores including interpersonal sensitivity, hostility and phobia were higher than the norm of Chinese and PLA (P<0.05～0.01). In junior high school recruits, the factorial scores including hostility and constrain were higher than the senior school recruits (P<0.05). Certain recruits showed higher scores of factor P, factor N, and lower scores of thinking factor, factor E and factor L and all the factors of SCL-90 compared with the norm of Chinese.ConclusionThe mental status and personality characteristics of certain recruits are poor. The company should strengthen psychological education and quickly adapt the recruits to the military circumstance.

Objective To investigate the effect of simulated microgravity on the proliferation and differentiation of the human megakaryocyte cells in vitro. Methods The fourth generation rotating cell culture system (RCCS-4) was used to generate the simulated microgravity environment. The cell viability was assessed by trypan blue staining method. The proliferation of cells was assessed by cell counting method and CCK8 method. The CD41+/CD61+ cells rate and the cells cycle were detected by flow cytometry. The expression levels of thrombopoietin receptor (c-mpl) and transcription factors were detected with RT-PCR. Results After 24, 48, 72 h, culture under simulated microgravity resulted in a significant decrease in the cell number , proliferative activity, cells in the G2/M phase and levels of c-mpl mRNA expression in comparison with that under the normal gravity (P < 0.05). After 48 h and 72 h culture, CD41+/CD61+ cells ratio decreased and RUNX-1 mRNA expression was down-regulated in cells of the group SMG compared with that of the group NG (P < 0.05). Conclusion Microgravity can inhibit the proliferation and differentiation of human megakaryocyte cells in vitro. The mechanism may be that TPO/c-mpl pathway was inhibited by down regulating the expression of c-mpl which transcriptional inhibition lead to.

Objective To evaluate whether the gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) questionnaire (GerdQ) symptom score could reflect the acid exposure indicated by 24-hour esophageal pH monitoring in patients with GERD, and to further validate the clinical application value of GerdQ.Methods From November 2008 to March 2010, 134 GERD patients from outpatient department with heartburn and acid reflux symptoms were enrolled.All the patients had undergone endoscopy examination, 24-hour esophageal pH monitoring and GerdQ scoring.According to 24-hour esophageal pH monitoring result, acid exposure group and none acid exposure group was divided by the percentage of time that pH was lower than 4 over 4.2% or DeMeester score over 14.72, the difference of GerdQ score was assessed.The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of GerdQ score was drawn according to DeMeester score and the percentage of time that pH was lower than 4 as the gold standard.With SPSS 17.0 statistical software, the ratio was compared with the u test and Chi-square test, comparison between groups with t test.Results The BMI of acid exposure group was higher than that of none acid exposure group(t= 2.365, P= 0.019).The GerdQ score of acid exposure group (8.51± 2.34) was significantly higher than that of none acid exposure group (6.67 ± 2.79), the difference was statistically significant (t = 4.002, P = 0.000) .ROC curve was drawn according to DeMeester score over 14.72 as gold standard; the area under curve (AUC) was 0.70.When the critical value of GerdQ score was 7.5, Youden index was up to 0.3365, the sensitivity of diagnosis was 0.6909 and specificity was 0.6454.The percentage of time that PH was lower than 4 over 4.2% as the gold standard, the AUC of GerdQ score was 0.663.When the critical value of GerdQ score was 7.5, Youden index was up to 0.2790, the sensitivity of diagnosis was 0.6600 and specificity was 0.6190.Conclusions GerdQ score greater than 7.5 can better reflect acid exposure at the lower esophageal.There is stronger association between GerdQ score with the DeMeester acid exposure score over 14.72 than with the percentage of time that pH lower than 4 over 4.2% as the critical value for acid exposure.Obesity may aggravate the transient lower esophageal sphincter relaxation leading to occurrence of GERD symptoms.

Objective To study the correlations of pelvic endometriosis cysts with pain and infertility according to the revised American Fertility Society (r-AFS) staging of endometriosis.Methods We retrospectively studied the clinical information of 258 cases patients with the ovarian endometriosis cysts who undergoing laparoscopic ovarian endometriosis cysts excision from January 2007 to December 2013.In accordance with the r-AFS,the correlation between pelvic adhesions and pain symptoms or infertility was evaluated.Results Among 258 cases with ovarian endometriosis cysts,there were 72.09％ (186/258) of patients presented pelvic pain and 16.28％ of patients presented infertility.The stages of r-AFS were that 16 cases in stage I,80 cases in stage Ⅱ,108 cases of in stage Ⅲ and 54 cases of stage Ⅳ.Also,186 cases with pain symptom,77.42％ (144/186) of patients were in stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ,which was remarkably higher than that of no symptom group (25.00％ (18/72),x2 =64.017,P ＜ 0.05).Among 42 cases with infertility,there were 85.71％ (36/42) of patients were in stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ,remarkably higher than of no infertility group (58.33％ (126/216),x2 =11.283,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The r-AFS stage of pelvic distribution in ovarian endometriosis cyst is closely correlated with pain symptoms and infertility.Patients in stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ with pain and infertility are more significant.

Objective To investgate the effect of nervous growth factor(NGF) on the proliferation of the limbal stem cells(LSCs) in vitro,and the relationship bewteen expression of its receptors and cell proliferation.Methods After primary cultured,LSCs were divided into the control group and the NGF group.Selected cells cultured of 1 d,3 d and 5 d in the two groups and examined the expression of p63,TrkA,p75 with immunohistochemistry.Results The average gray scale values of expression of p63,TrkA and p75 at 1 d,3 d and 5 d in NGF group were significant decreased compared with the corresponding data in the control group(P<0.05).Pearson's correlations analysis showed that the average gray scale values of expression of TrkA and p63 were of statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Conclusion These results highlight that NGF could maintain the stem cell properties of LSCs.LSCs could exepress the NGF receptors of TrkA and p75,and the expression of TrkA showed a correlation with LSCs proliferation.

The effect of obesity on idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP) girls is still under discussion.The relationship between body mass index (BMI) and sexual hormone levels of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) stimulation test in ICPP girls is controversial and the underlying mechanism is unclear.This study aims to further explore the independent effect of excess adiposity on peak luteinizing hormone (LH) level of stimulation test in ICPP girls and the role of other related factors.A retrospective cross-sectional study was performed on 618 girls diagnosed as having ICPP,including 355 cases of normal weight,99 cases of overweight and 164 cases of obese.The results showed that obese group had more progressed Tanner stage and no significant difference (P=0.28) in LH peak was found as basal LH value was used as a covariate.The obese group had higher total testosterone (TT),adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH),17-α hydroxyprogesterone (17-αOHP) and androstendione (AN),with significantly increased fasting insulin (FIN) and homeostasis model of assessment for insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR).Stratified analysis showed inconsistency of the relationship between BMI-standard deviation score (BMI-SDS) and LH peak in different Tanner stages (P for interaction=0.017).Further smoothing plot showed linear and non-linear relationship between BMI-SDS and LH peak in three Tanner stages.Then linear regression model was used to analyze the relationship between BMI-SDS and LH peak in different Tanner stages,with and without different confounding factors being adjusted.In B2 stage,BMI-SDS was negatively associated with LH peak.In B3 stage,when BMI-SDS ＜1.5,as BMI-SDS increased,the level of LH peak decreased (model Ⅰ:β=-1.8,95％ CI=-4.7 to 1.1,P=0.214).When BMI-SDS ≥1.5,BMI-SDS was significantly positively associated with LH peak (model Ⅰ:β=4.5,95％ CI=1.7 to 7.4,P=0.002).In B4 stage,when BMI-SDS ＜1.5,BMI-SDS was negatively associated with LH peak (model Ⅰ:β=-11.6,95％ CI=-22.7 to-4.5,P=0.049).When BMI-SDS ≥1.5,BMI-SDS was positively associated with LH peak (model Ⅰ:β=-4.2,95％ CI=-3.3 to 11.7,P=0.28).It is concluded that there is an independent correlation between BMI-SDS and LH peak of stimulation test in ICPP girls,their relationships are different in different Tanner stages,and the effect of BMI-SDS can be affected by adrenal androgens,estradiol and glucose metabolism parameters.

Objective:To systematically review parents ′ experience of caring for children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) to fully understand care needs and improve the psychological state and caregiving quality of parents. Methods:The qualitative studies on parents ′ experience of caring for children with CKD were retrieved from following databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, VIP, CBM, and WanFang Data from inception to March 2020. The quality of included researches was evaluated according to the JBI Critical Appraisal Tool for qualitative studies in Australia. The results were integrated by pooled integration methods. Results:A total of 14 studies were included. 69 results were summarized and integrated to form 10 categories. These categories extracted 4 integrated results: parents' physical and mental condition are affected, relationship between parents and their support system has changed, reconstruction of parents ′ life, unmet care needs and problems. Conclusions:Parents are crucial to the disease management of children with CKD, so clinical medical staff should not only provide medical services for children, but also pay more attention to the psychological status and needs of parents, so as to provide guidance and support to promote parents to better implement care and disease management for children.

Objective: To investigate the effects of simulated-thermobaric explosive gas on the respiration and nervous system in rats. Methods: 70 of SPF SD rats were randomly divided into four thermobaric explosive gas groups, two restoration observation groups and control group from April to August in 2018. The exposure time of in four thermobaric explosive gas groups were 3.75, 7.5, 15.0 and 30 min, respectively. The restoration observation groups were designed to observe for 30 and 120 min after exposure thermobaric explosive gas 30 min. The bloods were collected and analyzed at the end of exposure and recovery observation. The endogenous carbon monoxide (CO) , nitric oxide (NO) , glutamic acid (GLU) , acetylcholinesterase (AchE) and dopamine (DA) were detected in brain tissues, respectively. Results: The blood gas index (pH, PCO₂, PO₂, COHb, O₂Hb, MeHbt) and blood electrolytes (Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺ and Cl^-) in exposure groups have significant differences with these in control (P<0.05) . The pH value decreased with the exposure time longer. However, it basically returned to normal level when terminating exposure for 120 min. The concentration of PCO₂, MeHb and CoHb increased first and then decreased with the exposure time extension. Conversely, The PO₂ and O₂Hb decreased first and then increased with the exposure time longer. The concentration of endogenous CO, GLU, and AchE decreased and NO increased in exposure group 4 and the restoration observation group 1 compared with those in control (P<0.01) . In addition, there were pathological changes in lung and brain tissue of exposure group, such as inflammatory cell infiltration and edema. Conclusion The blood gas index, electrolytes, neurotransmitter, histopathology of lung and brain were changed to various degrees by thermobaric bomb gas exposure. These findings would provide some beneficial support for evaluating the damage effect of thermobaric bomb gas on organisms.
