Objective To investigate the protective effects of Radix Paeoniae Rubra(RPR)extracts on reticulum stress and macrophage infiltration on diabetic cardiomyopathy rats and the mechanism. Methods Sprague￣Dawley rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: normol control, model control (induced by streptozotocin),RPR extracts at low dose (i.p.15 g.kg-1 ), middle dose (i.p.30 g.kg-1 ), and high dose (i.p.60 g.kg-1 ).The artery intubation was carried out in all rats for detecting cardiac function 10 weeks later.The myocardial structure was detected by masson staining.The level of myocardial tissue glucose regulatory proteins GRP78,caspase￣12 and caspase￣3 expression were measured by Western blot.The ED￣1 protein was tested by immunohistochemical staining. Results Compared with the normal controls, the model rats presented decreased LVSP, +dp/dtmax ,-dp/ dtmax , LVEF, increased expressions of GRP78, caspase￣12,caspase￣3, ED￣1 and the synthesis of collagen fiber(P<0.05 or P<0.01).RPR extract inhibited the above indexes of model control rats in a concentration￣dependent manner(P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion The RPR obviously ameliorates the cardiac function and myocardial fibrosis of diabetic cardiomyopathy rats,which may be associated with suppressing the expression of GRP78,caspase￣12,caspase￣3 and macrophage infiltration.

Objective To investigate the role of protein O-linked N-acetyl-glucosamine (O-GlcNAc) modification in glutamine-induced improvement in the vascular hyporeactivity in rats with septic shock.Methods Thirty-two adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 2-3 months,weighing 250-300 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =8 each):sham operation group (S group); septic shock group (C group); glutamine group (G group) ; alloxan group (A group).Septic shock was induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP).In G and A groups,glutamine 0.75 g/kg was infused intravenously over 30 min at 1 h before CLP,and in addition alloxan 90 mg/kg was infused intraperitoneally in A group.Phenylephrine (PE) 0.5,1.0,2.0,and 2.5 μg/kg was injected intravenously at 20 min intervals at 6 h after CLP and the percentage increase in mean arterial pressure (MAP) was calculated.The thoracic aorta rings were isolated to perform the isolated vascular tension experiment.The concentration-response curve of PE was obtained in tension experiments,and the PE maximum efficacy (Emas) and median effective dose ( EC50 ) were calculated.The expression of O-GlcNAc modification and iNOS content in the thoracic aorta were detected in all groups.Blood samples were taken to determine the serum concentration of NO.Results Compared with S group,the percentage increase in MAP and Emax were significantly decreased,while the EC50,serum concentration of NO,and expression of O-GlcNAc modification and iNOS content in thoracic aorta were significantly increased in C,G and A groups ( P ＜ 0.05).Compared with C group,the expression of O-GlcNAc modification in the thoracic aorta was significantly increased,and EC50 was significantly decreased in G group,and the percentage increase in MAP and Emax were significantly increased,while the serum concentration of NO,and content of iNOS in the thoracic aorta were significantly decreased in G and A groups ( P ＜ 0.05).Compared with G group,the EC50,serum concentration of NO,and content of iNOS in the thoracic aorta were significantly increased,while the percentage increase in MAP,Emax and expression of O-GlcNAc modification in the thoracic aorta were significantly decreased ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Glutamine improves the vascular hyporeactivity through increasing the level of protein O-GlcNAc modification in rats with septic shock.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is an important part of standardized residency training. There are certain flaws in the various commonly used training and assessment mode. In the exploration of the new mode, "step-by-step" training helps to learn skills step by step. "Low intensity and high frequency" training not only focuses on key points and difficulties, and lightens the burden of the teachers and residents, but also can improve the training effect through repeated reinforcement. Combining different training methods organically to establish a "diversified" training mode can make full use of the advantages of different methods and make up for each other's shortcomings. In addition, the "veto power" should be introduced into the assessment. Scenario simulation with role play may be an effective way to train teamwork ability, but it still needs further exploration.

Objective To evaluate the status of implementation of the chain of survival and the gap between the guideline's recommendations and clinical practice as well as to analyze the factors influencing the prognosis of cardiac arrest (CA) patients.Methods A retrospective analysis of CA in adult patients admitted to Emergency Department of Peking University Third Hospital from January 2012 to December 2013 was carried out.The epidemiology,clinical features,implementations of the chain of survival and outcome were compared between out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) patients,with regard to the analysis of the predictors for survival and neurological outcome.Results A total of 414 patients with 69.8％ male and average age of (61.7 ± 18.0) years were divided into two groups,OHCA group (n =190) and IHCA group (n =224).Cardiogenic cause was found in 30％ of CA patients.There were 27.5％ patients with restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC),8.2％ patients discharged in survival and 3.1％ patients with good neurologic outcome (CPC =1 and 2).There were higher proportion of medical responders arriving to CA patients within 5 minutes after onset (99.1％ vs.10.5％,P ＜0.01),bystander carrying out cardiopulmonary resuscitation (100％ vs.15.3％,P ＜0.01),CPR initiated in 5 minutes (98.7％ vs.11.1％,P ＜ 0.01),defibrillation performed in 5 minutes (87.5％ vs.12.5％,P ＜ 0.01) in IHCA group compared with OHCA.There were no statistical differences in epinephrine administration and epinephrine dose,and targeted temperature management between two groups.There were higher proportion of ROSC (37.1％ vs.16.3％,P ＜ 0.05),higher percentage of survivals discharged (31.0％ vs.22.6％,P =0.002) and good neurologic outcome with CPC =1 or 2 (48.1％ vs.0.0％,P =0.029) in IHCA group compared with OHCA.Location of CA occurred and initial arrhythmia rectifiable with defibrillation treatment after ROSC were the favorable predictors for assessing the percentages of ROSC and survivals discharged.In contrast,male and age over 65 years were the unfavorable predictors of ROSC.Conclusions Improvement in outcome of victims with CA is required in every link of the chain of survival,especially in prehospital rescue act,bystander carrying out CPR,defibrillation,and therapeutic hypothermia in unconscious patients after resuscitation.The effective implementation of chain of survival concept can improve the prognosis of CA patients.

Objective To explore effects and mechanism of inactivation of vitamin D receptor (VDR) in intestinal tumor growth of APCmin/+ mice. Methods To generate APCmin/+VDR -/- mice through breeding, the number and size of small intestinal and colonic tumors were assessed and compared between APCmin/+ and APCmin/+ VDR -/- mice. The intestinal tumors were diagnosed with HE stain. The expressions of BCL-2,vimentin-1,Stat-1 and MSH-2 proteins of tumors were determined by immanohistocbemistry and compared be-tween APCmin/+ and APCmin/+VDR -/- mice. Results A comparison between APCmin/+ and APCmin/+ VDR -/- mice revealed that the number of the tumors, which were larger than 3mm, was significantly increased in APCmin/+ VDR -/- mice at 4 months of age (P< 0.01). HE staining indicated fistulous adenomas from small intestine and colon of two groups, Immunostaining showed Stat - 1 level in APC-min/+ tumors were increased and MSH-2 and vimentin-1 levels in APCmin/+ VDR-/- mice were increased, compared to APCmin/+tumors. Conclusion These observations suggested that inactivation of VDR promoted the intestinal tumor growth of APCmin/+ mice.

Objective To evaluate the effect of perioperative intravenous (Ⅳ) iron sucrose therapy on reducing postsurgical blood transfusion rates in elderly patients with hip fractures.Methods From September 2011 to February 2014,200 patients aged≥65 years with hip fractures were enrolled.The iron sucrose group (n=100) received iron sucrose (600 mg,Ⅳ),while the control group (n=100) did not receive iron sucrose.Postsurgical blood transfusion rates,infection rates,mortality and length of hospital stay were evaluated.Results The difference in blood transfusion rates was significant (25.0％ vs.41.0％,P＜0.05),while differences in infection rates,mortality and length of hospital stay were not significant between the two groups.Conclusions Perioperative Ⅳ iron sucrose can reduce blood transfusion requirements in elderly patients with hip fractures.
