OBJECTIVETo investigate the protective effects of small dose of dopamine on the intestinal mucosa of scalded rats in shock stage.

METHODSWistar rats inflicted by 30% TBSA of III degree scalding were employed as the model. The rats were pre-placed with cardiac catheter before and were resuscitated intravenously after injury. The scalded rats were treated by routine (control) and small dose of dopamine (3 micro g.kg(-1).min(-1)), respectively. The changes of rat serum levels of diamine oxidase (DAO), malondialdehyde (MDA) and lactic acid (LA) were observed after treatment. And the pathomorphological changes of the intestine were scored.

RESULTSThe general condition of the rats with dopamine treatment in shock stage was better than that in control group. The rat serum levels of MDA, LA and DAO decreased obviously, especially during 3 to 12 postburn hours (PBHs) after treatment by small dose of dopamine. The pathomorphological scoring of ileum in dopamine treating group was better than that in control.

CONCLUSIONThe intestinal mucosa of severely scalded rats in shock stage could be well protected by small dose of dopamine.

Objective To review the research of self-management intervention in patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation,clarify the intervention elements,so as to provide references for clinical practice and future related research.Methods According to the scoping review framework,a literature search was performed in the PubMed,Embase,CINAHL,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,CNKI,Wan fang Database,VIP,CBMdisc for all the studies on self-management intervention of patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.The retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to December,2022.There were 2 researchers who extracted and analyzed the data of the included literature.Results A total of 12 articles were included,including 3 randomized controlled trials,8 quasi-experimental studies,and 1 mixed study.6 studies were conducted with interventions based on the theoretical basis or nursing model such as self-management oriented 5A nursing model,continuous nursing model,problem-based learning theory.The intervention methods of 12 studies included nurse-led self-management guidance,mobile applications,multidisciplinary collaboration,and graphic cards.The intervention time was mostly 1～3 months.The outcome indicators included feasibility evaluation indicators such as operability,ease of use,and user satisfaction of the application,and effect evaluation indicators such as self-management ability,quality of life,and medication compliance of patients.The results showed that self-management interventions could improve patient self-management ability,quality of life,medication compliance,and improve their psychological and nutritional status.Conclusion The research on self-management intervention in patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is still in the development stage,and its positive effect has been preliminarily verified.Medical staff should strengthen the self-management evaluation of patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation,play the role of multidisciplinary team,use electronic health intervention methods,and formulate multi-level,scientific and effective self-management intervention programs.

Objective: To observe the expression of long-chain non-coding RNA (lncRNA) RP3-340N1.2 in breast cancer tissues and its effect on proliferation and migration of breast cancer MCF-7 cells, and to explore the possible mechanism. Methods: 13 pairs of breast cancer tissues and adjacent tissues from breast cancer patients, who underwent radical surgery at the Cancer Center of theAffiliated People’s Hospital of Hubei University of Medicine from Jan. 2017 to Sep. 2017, were collected for this study. qRT-PCR was used to detect the differential expression of RP3-340N1.2 in collected tissue samples and breast cancer cell lines and normal breast epithelial cell line. RP3-340N1.2 plasmid (experimental group) and the negative control plasmid (control group) were transfected into breast cancer MCF-7 cells using Lipofectamine 3000. Cell counting (CCK-8) and Transwell migration assay were used to examine the effect of RP3-340N1.2 over-expression on proliferation and migration of MCF7 cells, the effect of RP3-340N1.2 over-expression on the mRNA expression of miR-134-5p and OPCML was detected by qRT-PCR, and Western blotting was used to detect the expression of OPCML protein. Results: The expression of RP3-340N1.2 in breast cancer tissues was significantly lower than that in adjacent tissues ( P <0.01), and the expression of RP3-340N1.2 in breast cancer cell lines was significantly lower than that in normal breast epithelial cells ( P < 0.01). Up-regulation of RP3-340N1.2 decreased the proliferation and migration of MCF7 cells (all P <0.05). After over-expression of RP3-340N1.2 in MCF7 cells, the expression of miR-134-5p obviously decreased ( P <0.01); moreover, the mRNA and protein expressions of OPCML significantly increased ( P <0.01) while the expressions of cell cycle regulatory proteins (CDK4, Cyclin D2) and cell migration regulatory proteins (Vimentin and N-cadherin) decreased significantly (all P <0.01). Conclusion: RP3-340N1.2 is low expressed in breast cancer tissues and cell lines. Up-regulation of RP3-340N1.2 expression can lead to decreased expression of miR-1345p and increased expression of OPCML gene, thereby inhibiting the proliferation and migration of breast cancer cells.
