Objective To investigate the regularity of variation in number of emergency patients visiting doctors within each 24 h during holidays and festival days,so as to provide a scientific basis for hospital administration and the rational allocation of human resources.Methods Based on the hospital's statistical data of emergency patients visiting doctors during winters from December 2010 to February 2014,a retrospective analysis was carried out for the number and the visiting time of emergency patients on holidays (weekends,the minor long holiday of 3 days for New Year and the major long holiday of 7 days for spring festival) and on general working days (Monday to Friday),respectively.The variation in number of patients and peak time of visiting doctors were analyzed by using circular distribution method,and compared the differences in the number of emergency patients visiting doctors and peak time period between holidays and working days.Results Most of emergency patient visitors were 50-79 years old males; the number of emergency patients on holidays was significantly higher than that on general working days,especially during the seven-day spring festival (P ＜ 0.01),while the number on New Year' s day was similar to that on weekends; peak time for emergency patients' visiting doctors was from 13:05 to 0:28 during general working days.On the contrary,the peak time occurred earlier at 10:05 until 21:05 during the holidays if the hospital offers half-day outpatient service,and in the absence of outpatient service,the peak time emerged further earlier at 9:16 until 21:26 during holidays.Conclusions The ages,number and the peak time of emergency patients visiting doctors on holidays are different from those on the general working days,so medical staff on duty should be arranged reasonably to follow this regularity.

Objective:To evaluate the microtensile bond strength of total-etch or self-etch adhesives to caries-affected dentine versus normal dentine. Methods:Twenty-four extracted human molars with mesial coronal carious lesions extending into mid-dentin were selected. The softened carious dentine was removed with a slow-speed, carbon-steel bur and Caries Marker was used as guides. Prepared cavity in sound dentine in the distal coronal part of the identical teeth was used as the control. Surfaces were bonded with either Prime&Bond NT, Adper Single Bond 2, Adper Prompt or XenoⅢ,according to manufactures' recommendations. A crown was built up using resin composite(Filtek P60).After storage in water (37 ℃,24 h),teeth were vertically serially sectioned into 1.0 mm thick slabs and trimmed to yield 1 mm2 test area that contained either caries-affected or normal dentine. Then the specimen were tested in tension in an Instron machine at 0.8 mm/min.The bonding interface between the dentine and adhesives was qualitatively evaluated under the observation of scanning electron microscope(SEM). Results:Two total-etch adhesives yielded higher bond strengths than the two self-etching systems. And all the adhesives attained higher strengths in normal than in caries-affected dentine(P

Objective: To investigate the effects of HPV16E6-ribozyme on telomerase activity in cervical carcinoma cell line CaSKi and the related mechanisms. Methods: Anti-HPV16E6-ribozyme and blank eucaryotic plasmids were transfected into CaSKi cells via lipofectin, and the resultant cells were named as CaSKi-R and CaSKi-P, respectively. The expression of ribozyme in transfected cells was observed by RNA dot blotting. The expression of E6 mRNA and protein in the 3 kinds of cells were detected by Northern blotting and Western blotting, respectively. Telomerase activity was determined by TRAP-Elisa method; the expression of P53, c-myc, hTERT and hRT mRNA were examined by RT-PCR.Results: RNA dot blotting showed that anti-HPV16E6-ribozyme was stably expressed in transfected CaSKi-R cells. Western blotting showed that the expression of E6 mRNA and protein in CaSKi-R cells was obviously lower than that in CaSKi and CaSKi-P cells. The telomerase activities in CaSKi,CaSKi-P and CaSKi-R cells were (0.89?0.14), (0.90?0.11) and(0.36?0.06),respectively. The inhibitory rate of telomerase activity in CaSKi-R cells was 59.55%, which was significantly lower than those in CaSKi and CaSKi-P cells (P

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of the cultured cervical cancer cell line transfected with anti HPV16E6 ribozyme, and to investigate the possibility and practicality of ribozyme in treatment of cervical cancer. Methods: The anti HPV16E6 ribozyme and empty eucaryotic expressing plasmids were transfected by lipofectin transfection into CaSKi cell, which named as CaSKi R, CaSKi P respectively. The morphology and the soft agar forming ability were studied. The expression of E6, PCNA and C erbB 2 genes was studied through Flow Cytometry. The tumorgenicity of each cell was detected by injecting cells into the nude mice skin. Three groups of nude mice were injected by CaSKi, CaSKi R and CaSKi P cell separately. Another group of mice was injected by CaSKi cell on right side and CaSKi R cell on left side. Results: There is no distinct difference of the morphology and growth rate between CaSKi and CaSKi P, but the growth rate of CaSKi R decreased. The soft agar forming rate of CaSKi P was similar with that of CaSKi cells, while that of CaSKi R was found decreased. The result of flow cytometric analysis showed that anti HPV16E6 ribozyme could reduce the expression of E6, PCNA and C erbB 2 genes on CaSKi R cells, while this phenomenon was not found on the CaSKi P cells. The tumorgenicity of CaSKi R in nude mice was decreased compared with CaSKi and CaSKi P cells. Conclusion: Anti HPVE6 rivozyme could partly reverse the malignant phenotypes of CaSKi cells. The reason may be the decrease of E6 gene expression, and the succeeding decrease of the PCNA and C erbB 2 genes′ expression.

Objective To investigate the value of serum proteomic profiling in cervical cancer detected pre-surgery and post-surgery. Methods Magnetic bead and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight-mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) were used to detect the serum samples from 54 cases with cervical cancer before and after surgery and 53 serum samples from healthy women. The results of spectra were analyzed by Biomarker Wizard software. Results Significant variation of proteomic profiling between pre-surgery and post-surgery were analyzed. There were 22 proteins with different mass/charge (M/Z) values significantly different (P<0.01) at the M/Z value range from 1500 to 50 000, among of which relative content of proteins with M/Z 3981, 4290, and 28 066 in pre-surgery cervical cancer patients were higher than those in health women [(1.51±1.78)% vs (0.83±0.38)%, (2.70±2.19)% vs (1.72±0.91)%, (1.99±1.70)% vs (0.92±0.95)%; P<0.01], while in the post-surgery patients, relative content of these three proteins significantly decreased to (0.59±0.45)%, (1.01±0.64)%, (0.54±0.37)%, respectively. But the relative content of another three proteins with M/Z 11 487, 11 529, and 11 678 were significantly increased in post-surgery patients [(0.38±1.41)% vs (2.74±3.67)%, (0.16±0.46)% vs (2.00±1.76)%, (1.02±1.67)% vs (7.71±9.46)%; P<0.01]. Conclusion Serum proteomic profiling could screen out the proteins which had significant variation between pre-surgery and post-surgery serum, of which with M/Z 3981, 4290, and 28 066 may be related with tumor burden, while with M/Z 11 487, 11 529, and 11 678 may be response to surgical stress.

Organic phosphorus pesticide poisoning is a common disease in emergency.Compared with other clinical disease teaching,the basic concepts and theories of this unit are relatively less and more fixed,which is conducive to the case-based learning(CBL).The CBL teaching curriculum of organic phosphorus pesticide poisoning includes three aspects:pre-class teaching design,classroom teaching,after-class teaching evaluation and feedback.Pre-class teaching requires teachers to carefully read the syllabus,choose the teaching content,and design typical cases and problems.Classroom teaching emphasizes a lively and relaxed atmosphere,Teachers should guide students to think about questions and find answers themselves,and cultivated the correct clinic ideation through the combination of their theoretical knowledge and clinical practice in a classroom environment.Teaching evaluation and feedback help teachers to summarize what they are teaching and promote the teaching,which benefits both the teachers and students.

Objective To investigate the occurrence of thyroid disorders in septic patients and the relationship between thyroid hormone level and the change of left ventricular function.Methods A total of 63 septic patients,43 male and 20 female,aged 50 to 88 years with mean 63.3 ± 18.5,were included in the present study.The thyroid hormone levels and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were detected in all patients on the next day of admission.Clinical information of each patient was recorded including demographics and co-existed disease,APACHE Ⅱ score at admission and the incidence of shock and subsequent multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS).At 24 hours,the second week and the third week after admission,a serial trans-thoracic echocardiography were performed in all patients to observe changes of left ventricular end diastolic dimension,left ventricular eject fraction and E/A (the ratio between maximal velocity of blood flow at mitral valve orifice in the early diastolic phase and maximal velocity of blood flow of atrium in systolic phase).Another 38 patients with ordinary infections,21 male and 17 female,with mean age 58.6 ± 16.8 (48-84 years) were selected as controls for comparison.The difference in thyroid function between sepsis group and control group was analyzed.The levels of serum thyroid hormone associated with the incidence of shock and MODS were studied among different types of the left ventricular structure and function in sepsis group.Results The levels of serum free tri-iodothyronine (FT3) and free tetra-iodothyronine (FT4) in sepsis group were significantly lower than those in control group (P ＜ 0.05),but there was no difference in level of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) between these two groups.The patients with sepsis had three types of the left ventricular dysfunction:diastolic dysfunction without the enlargement of left ventricular (type Ⅰ) in 31 patients,the enlargement of left ventricular with diastolic dysfunction (type Ⅱ) in 18 patients and the enlargement of left ventricular with both systolic and diastolic dysfunction (type Ⅲ) in 14 patients.Compared with the other two types,the type Ⅲ patients had significantly lower levels of FT3 and FT4 and higher incidences of shock and MODS (P ＜ 0.05).No significant difference in TSH level was found among the three types.There were no significantly differences in FT3 and FT4 between type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ,but the higher incidences of shock and MODS were found in type Ⅰ (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Most septic patients have thyroid function disorder.Serum thyroid hormone levels in early stage of sepsis have certain role in predicting changes in left ventricular structure and function in the late stage of disease.

Objective To study the relationship between red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and the malignant arrhythmia event of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) during hospitalization. Methods A retrospective study was conducted. The clinical data of patients with CHF admitted to Department of Emergency and Cardiology of Peking University Third Hospital from January 2014 to February 2016 were reviewed. The patients with New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ at hospital admission and courses lasted at least six months were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups according to malignant arrhythmia events (ventricular tachycardia, ventricular flutter or ventricular fibrillation) during hospitalization, i.e. malignant arrhythmia group and non-malignant arrhythmia group. The value of RDW and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were compared between two groups, and correlation of RDW, LVEF and malignant arrhythmia events by Spearman rank correlation analysis were studied, and the predictive value of RDW and LVEF for malignant arrhythmia events in patients with CHF was analyzed with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results A total of 226 CHF patients were enrolled with 148 male and 78 female, the average age was (61.52±13.27) years old (range: 26-91 years old), the average hospitalization days were (14.5±3.5) days (range: 14-21 days), and malignant arrhythmia occurred in 102 patients (45.13%) during hospitalization. There were no statistically differences in gender, age, past history, etiology of heart disease, the usage of angiotensin receptor converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) or angiotensin Ⅱ receptor inhibitors (ARB) and beta blockers, serum potassium levels and so on between two groups. Compared with non-malignant arrhythmia group, the value of the RDW was significantly increased in malignant arrhythmia group [(13.28±1.07)% vs. (12.87±1.32)%, t = 2.531, P = 0.012], but the levels of LVEF was significantly reduced (0.425±0.116 vs. 0.458±0.104, t = 2.249, P = 0.026), the proportion of patients with NYHA Class Ⅱ was significantly lower (4.90% vs. 19.35%, χ2= 10.451, P = 0.000) and that of NYHA Class Ⅳ was just the opposite (57.84% vs. 41.13%, χ2 = 6.264, P = 0.011). The value of the RDW showed positively correlation with the malignant arrhythmia events (r = 0.758, P = 0.023), while LVEF was negatively correlated (r = -0.719, P = 0.019). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for predicting the malignant arrhythmia events of RDW and LVEF was 0.882 [95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.839-0.925), 0.903 (95%CI = 0.866-0.941), respectively. The sensitivity and specificity for RDW in predicting in-hospital malignant arrhythmia event respectively were 82.0% and 79.0% with the optimal cut-off of 14.20%, and those for LVEF were 78.0% and 85.0% with the optimal cut-off of 0.375. Conclusion RDW can be used to predict the occurrence of malignant arrhythmia in patients with CHF during hospitalization.
