We evaluated the differential expression and function of chitinase 3‐like‐1 in macrophage stimulated by Sporothrix schenckii and Candida albicans fungicidal ability of macrophage after stimulation with Sporothrix schenckii and Candida albi‐cans separately was detected .The expression of CHI3L1 gene in macrophage stimulated by Sporothrix Schenckii and Candida albicans was evaluated with real‐time PCR .The function of CHI3L1 protein in macrophages against the reproduction of Sporo‐thrix schenckii and Candida albicans was detected in vitro .Results showed that macrophages could engulf and kill Sporothrix Schenckii and Candida albicans in vitro .The expression of CHI3L1 gene in macrophage stimulated by Candida albicans was increased obviously .At the same time ,CHI3L1 protein can damper the reproduction of Candida albicans .However ,the ex‐pression of CHI3L1 gene was not elevated when macrophage was stimulated by Sporothrix schenckii and CHI3L1 protein played little role in reproduction of Sporothrix schenckii .The expression of CHI3L1 gene in macrophage was elevated after stimulation with Candida albicans ,but was not elevated with Sporothrix Schenckii .In correspondence with differential ex‐pression ,CHI3L1 in macrophages could impair the reproduction of Candida albicans but had a weak function on Sporothrix schenckii which might contribute to the pathogenesis of spo‐rotricosis .
2.Discussion on Supervision and Sampling of Biochemical Test Kits.
Chinese Journal of Medical Instrumentation 2022;46(2):216-218
As an important part of medical devices, in vitro diagnostic reagents are important means to prevent and diagnose and protect people's health. Supervision and sampling is an important and key supervision method to ensure the in vitro diagnostic reagent products are qualified. This paper summarizes the problems encountered in recent years in vitro diagnostic quantitative testing kit supervision sampling, analyzes the causes of these problems, and puts forward corresponding suggestions, hoping to provide constructive suggestions for supervision sampling.

Objective:To construct an anticipatory grief intervention scheme for family caregivers of advanced cancer patients based on narrative theory, and to provide reference for anticipatory grief nursing intervention.Methods:From October 2022 to May 2023, through literature research, semi-structured interview and brainstorming method, the first draft of nursing intervention plan was constructed, the Delphi method was used to conduct 2 rounds of correspondence consultation with 15 experts, and the indicators at all levels were modified according to the opinions of experts, and the final draft of intervention plan was formed.Results:The experts were all female, aged (49.67 ± 5.83) years old. The authority coefficient of the two rounds of experts was 0.87. The Kendall coordination coefficients of the first, second, and third level indicators after the first round of expert inquiry were 0.195, 0.113, and 0.093, respectively. The Kendall coordination coefficients of the first, second, and third level indicators after the second round of expert inquiry were 0.200, 0.119, and 0.101, respectively. The differences were statistically significant ( χ2 values were 8.76-107.21, all P<0.05).Finally, a nursing intervention plan based on narrative theory was formed, which included 4 primary indicators, 19 secondary indicators and 72 tertiary indicators. Conclusions:The anticipatory grief intervention scheme for family caregivers of advanced cancer patients is scientific, practical and feasible, and can be used for psychological nursing of family caregivers.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and imaging characteristics of cervical spine hyperextension injury plus multilevel disco-ligamentous complex (MDLC) injury and the therapeutic effectiveness of their treatment.Methods:A total of 456 patients with cervical hyperextension injury were hospitalized between January 2010 and October 2020 at Department of Orthopaedics, The 909th Hospital, Dongnan Hospital Affiliated to Xiamen University. A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of the 43 patients among them who had been diagnosed with MDLC injury and undergone surgical treatment and been fully followed up. They were 37 males and 6 females with an age of (50.6±10.7) years. According to the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) grading, there were 1 case of grade A, 8 cases of grade B, 18 cases of grade C, and 16 cases of grade D. The Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score was (7.9±1.6) points. Anterior cervical decompression, fusion and internal fixation were conducted for 42 patients, and posterior total laminectomy and internal fixation for 1 patient. The clinical and imaging manifestations of the patients, and the consistency between preoperative and intraoperative diagnosis of disco-ligamentous complex (DLC) injury were analyzed. ASIA grading and JOA score were used to assess the outcomes of surgical treatment and comparisons were made between preoperation and postoperation.Results:DLC injury existed at 99 levels (43 cases), with a high incidence at level C 5-6 (30 cases), and high-signal manifestations of cervical cord injury existed at 48 levels, with a high incidence at level C 3-4 (16 cases). Two-segment DLC injury was the most common [74.4% (32/43)], while three-segment DLC injury existed in 9 cases and four-segment DLC injury in 2 cases. There were 21 cases of jumping MDLC injury and 22 cases of continuous MDLC injury. At preoperation, DLC injury was suspected in 10 patients (at 11 levels), of whom 8 (at 9 levels) were diagnosed intraoperatively with DLC injury, and 2 (at 2 levels) were excluded from the DLC injury. All the 43 patients were followed up for (54.7±10.7) months. By the ASIA grading at the last follow-up, 3 cases were grade C, 13 cases grade D, and 27 cases grade E. The JOA score at the last follow-up was (15.1±2.2) points. Both the 2 outcomes showed significant improvements compared with the preoperative values ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The clinical incidence of cervical hyperextension injury combined with MDLC injury is low, but relatively higher in the middle-aged and elderly patients. As the level of DLC injury is often inconsistent with the likely level of cervical spinal cord injury, surgical exploration of the DLC structure with suspected injury can reduce the rate of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis.
