Objective To investigate the graduate students' mental pressure after the full im-plementation of the charging system and explore effective countermeasures of alleviating the psycho-logical pressure. Methods 413 full-time graduate students of Grade 2014 were randomly selected in a university of Shandong province. The graduate students' psychological pressure scale and self-designed questionnaire survey were used. The data were analyzed using SPSS 17.0 software, statistical descrip-tion of the survey data, independent sample t test, ANOVA. Results ①The psychological pressure of full-time graduate students at their own expense was in themedium pressure level; ②The economic pressure and academic pressure of the male graduate students were higher than those of the female graduate students (P=0.000,P=0.042), the rural economic pressures were greater than urban students graduate students graduate students (P=0.000); Professional graduate economic pressures were greater than academic graduate students (P=0.027);There is difference in the pressure of interpersonal commu-nication among different majors (P=0.016); ③78.75% (315/400) of the graduate students tuition fees, living expenses were mainly from their parents and the national and school awards; ④The percentage of those who completely agreed with the following view: full charge than at public expense is more advantageous to graduate education, comprehensive charge is advantageous to the education career development and comprehensive charge embodies the fairness of education was 84.75% (339/400), 71.25% (285/400) and 68.00% (272/400). Conclusion The full-time graduate students at their own expense have a more rational understanding of the charging policy; economic and academic pressures are the two outstanding pressure sources of the graduate students at the present stage. Graduate should improve their ability to cope with stress, and government and schools should take various measures to help students relieve stress.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of motherwort (herbs leonuri/leonurus heterophyllus sweet) injection for preventing postpartum hemorrhage after caesarian section. Methods The prospective study was designed as a randomized and single blind multi-center research matched with positive agent as controls from Apt 2007 to Aug 2007. 440 women underwent caesarian section (CS) indicated by obstetric factors were enrolled from 15 teaching hospitals in China and assigned into three groups: group of motherwort: 147 cases were administered by motherwort 40 rag uterine injection during CS and 20 mg intramuscular injection per 12 hours 3 times after CS; group of motherwort + oxytocin : 144 cases were administered by motherwort 40 mg and oxytocin 10 U uterine injection during CS and motherwort 20 mg intramuscular injection per 12 hours 3 times after CS and group of oxytocin: 149 cases were administered by oxytocin 10 U uterine injection and oxytocin 10 U + 5% glucose 500 nd intravenously injection during operation and oxytocin 10 U intramuscular injection per 12 hours 3 times after CS. The following clinical parameter were collected and analyzed: (1) The amount of blood loss during operation, at 2, 6, 12, 24, 48 hours after operation. (2) The total amount of blood loss in 24 hours after CS and the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage. (3) The change of level of hemoglobin (Hb) and counting of red blood cell ( RBC ) from prepartum to postpartum. (4) Adverse reaction. Results (1) The mean amount of blood loss during operation were (368±258) ml in group of motherwort, (255±114) mi in group of motherwort + oxytocinand (269±141 ) ml in group of oxytocin, which exhibited significant difference among three groups ( P<0.01 ). Meanwhile, no statistical different amount of blood loss among three groups were observed at 2,6,12, 24, 48 hours after CS. (2)The amount of blood loss of postpartum at 24 hours were (480±276)ml ingroup of motherwort, (361±179) ml in group of motherwort + oxytocin, (381±179) nd in group of oxytocin, which showed significant difference among 3 groups(P <0.01 ). (3) The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage were 32.0% (47/147) in group of motherwort, 11.1% (16/144) in group of motherwort + oxytocin, and 18.8% in (28/149) in group of oxytocin. When comparing the lowest rate of postpartum blood loss in group of motherwort + oxytocin and the highest rate in group of motherwort, it displayed statistical difference (P<0.01). (4) The decreased level of RBC and Hb were shown that RBC(0.3±0.5)×10<'12<‘/L and Hb(9±13)g/L in group of motherwort, RBC (0.2±0.4)×10<'12/L and Hb ( 6±10) g/Lin group of motherwort + oxytocin and RBC (0.2±0.4)×10<'12/L and Hb(7±30) g/L in group of oxytocinrespectively. However, the comparison of different value of RBC and lib in group of oxytocin and motherwort +oxytocin showed significant difference (P<0.05 ). (5) Two cases with allery reaction was observed.Conclusion It is safe and efficacious that combined use of motherwort injection and oxytocin was to preventpostpartum hemorrhage during or after caesarian section.

Objective:To investigate the present situation of unintended pregnancy within two years postpartum and its influencing factors in China.Methods:Participants who delivered a live birth at 60 hospitals in 15 provinces in the eastern, central and western regions of China during July 2015 to June 2016 were interviewed by using structured questionnaire. Information on occurrence of unintended pregnancy within 2 years after delivery, postpartum contraceptive use, sexual resumption, breastfeeding, and women′s socio-demographic characteristics, and so on, were collected. Life-table analysis, cluster log-rank tests and a 2-level Cox regression model were used for data analysis.Results:A total of 18 045 postpartum women were investigated. The cumulative 1- and 2-year unintended pregnancy rates after delivery were 5.3% (95% CI: 4.5%－6.1%) and 13.1% (95% CI: 11.3%－14.8%), respectively. Cox regression model analysis showed that the risk of unintended pregnancy within 2 years postpartum were increased in younger women, ethnic minorities, women with abortion history, and those who had a vaginal delivery with short lactation time and late postpartum contraceptive initiation (all P<0.01). The risk of postpartum unintended pregnancy was not associated with geographic regions and hospitals where women gave a birth (all P>0.05). Conclusions:In China, the risk of unintended pregnancy within 2 years after delivery is relatively high. Service institutions and service providers should improve the quality of postpartum family planning services, promote the use of high effect contraceptive methods, and educate women to use a method at the time of their sexual resumption or even before.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of dapagliflozin on kidney and the expression of AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK)/mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR)signaling pathway in diabetic nephropathy(DN)rats.Methods A total of 40 SPF Wistar male rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group,low-dose group and high-dose group,with 10 rats in each group.After the DN model was successfully prepared,the rats in normal group were given normal diet + normal saline by gavage,the rats in model group was given high sugar and high fat feed + normal saline by gavage,the rats in low-dose group was given high sugar and high fat feed+1mg/(kg·d)of dapagliflozin by gavage,the rats in high-dose group was given high sugar and high fat feed+10mg/(kg·d)of dapagliflozin by gavage.Rats in each group were continuously gavaged for 12 weeks.Renal function indexes,renal pathological changes,p-AMPK and p-mTOR protein expression,collagen type Ⅰ(COL Ⅰ),collagen type Ⅳ(COL Ⅳ)and fibronectin(FN)of all groups were compared.Results Blood urea nitrogen(BUN),serum creatinine(SCr),24h urinary protein quantity,p-mTOR protein expression,COL Ⅰ,COL Ⅳ and FN levels of rats in model group,low-dose group and high-dose group were significantly higher than those in normal group,and p-AMPK protein expression was significantly lower than that of normal group(P<0.05).BUN,SCr,24h urinary protein quantity,p-mTOR protein expression,COL Ⅰ,COL Ⅳ and FN levels of rats in low-dose group and high-dose group were significantly lower than those in model group,while p-AMPK protein expression was significantly higher than that in model group(P<0.05).BUN,SCr,24h urinary protein quantity,p-mTOR protein expression,COL Ⅰ,COL Ⅳ and FN levels in high-dose group were significantly lower than those in low-dose group,and p-AMPK protein expression was significantly higher than that in low-dose group(P<0.05).Conclusion Dapagliflozin has a good kidney protection effect on DN rats,and its mechanism may be related to the regulation of AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway.

Autoimmune hepatitis （AIH） is an autoimmune disease characterized by chronic liver inflammation， with a gradually increasing incidence rate， and its social and medical burdens cannot be neglected. Intestinal microecology is becoming a research hotspot in the field of autoimmune disease. In recent years， it has been believed that changes in intestinal microecology can cause changes in autoimmune state， microbial metabolites， and intestinal barrier， which is one of the driving factors for the onset of AIH. Early diagnosis and correct treatment can help to improve the prognosis of AIH patients. This article introduces the characteristics of gut microbiota in AIH patients， elaborates on the impact of intestinal microflora imbalance on the pathogenesis of AIH， and briefly describes related treatment regimens from the perspective of intestinal microecology， so as to comprehensively understand and explain the role of intestinal microecology in AIH and the impact of intestinal microecology balance on the pathogenesis， diagnosis， and treatment of AIH.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of the protein kinase RNA-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase （PERK）/eukaryotic initiation factor 2α （eIF2α） pathway in endoplasmic reticulum stress on the activation of hepatic stellate cells （HSC）. MethodsPathological sections of normal liver tissue after surgery were collected from 11 patients with hepatic fibrosis （S1-S4） and 9 patients with hepatic hemangioma and hepatic adenoma confirmed by liver biopsy， and immunohistochemistry was used to measure the protein expression levels of PERK， eIF2α， and C/EBP homologous protein （CHOP）. Human HSC-LX2 cells were treated with different concentrations of the endoplasmic reticulum stress inducer thapsigargin （0， 125， 250， 500， and 1 000 nmol/L）， and qRT-PCR was used to measure the mRNA expression level of PERK， while Western blot was used to measure the protein expression levels of PERK， inositol requiring protein 1 （IRE1）， activating transcription factor 6 （ATF6）， CHOP， and α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA）. The method of lentivirus transfection was used to construct a PERK stable overexpression LX-2 group and a control group； qRT-PCR was used to measure the mRNA expression levels of PERK， eIF2α， and α-SMA， Western blot was used to measure the protein expression levels of PERK， phosphorylated eIF2α （p-eIF2α）， and α-SMA， and immunofluorescence assay was used to measure the expression of collagen type I alpha 1 （COL1A1）. The independent samples t-test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups； a one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups， and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups. ResultsCompared with normal liver tissue， the liver tissue of patients with hepatic fibrosis had significantly higher expression levels of PERK， eIF2α， and CHOP （Z=-3.56， t=-5.75， Z=-3.52， all P<0.001）. Compared with the solvent group， the groups treated with different concentrations of thapsigargin had significant increases in the expression levels of the endoplasmic reticulum-associated proteins PERK， CHOP， IRE1， ATF6， and α-SMA （all P<0.05）. Compared with the control group， the PERK stable overexpression group had significant increases in the mRNA expression levels of PERK， eIF2α， and α-SMA and the protein expression levels of PERK， p-eIF2α， and α-SMA （all P<0.05）， and immunofluorescence assay showed a significant increase in the expression level of COL1A1 in the PERK stable overexpression group （P<0.05）. ConclusionPERK overexpression can induce the expression of α-SMA and COL1A1 in LX-2 cells， suggesting that the PERK signaling pathway might be one of the important mechanisms of HSC activation.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the protective effect of arctiin with anti-inflammatory bioactivity against triptolide-induced nephrotoxicity in rats and explore the underlying mechanism. METHODS: Forty SD rats were divided into 4 groups for gastric lavage of normal saline, arctiin (500 mg/kg), triptolide (500 μg/kg), or both arctiin (500 mg/kg) and triptolide (500 μg/kg). Blood samples were collected for analysis of biochemical renal parameters, and the renal tissues were harvested for determining the kidney index and for pathological evaluation with HE staining. In the RESULTS: In SD rats, arctiin significantly antagonized triptolide-induced elevation of BUN, Scr and kidney index ( CONCLUSIONS Arctiin can protect the kidney from triptolide-induced damages in rats possibly through the anti-inflammatory pathway.
